I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

Perhaps because the stockings had been soaked in water and were uncomfortable against her legs, Yan Ziming lifted her right foot back, grabbed the toe of the stocking, and pulled hard. The soft, sticky stockings stretched longer and longer until they were completely soaked. Yan Ziming threw them on the ground with a heavy thud.

Her bare, white feet, no longer covered by stockings, were damp with a few drops of water, like two soft, white crescent moons floating on the water.

clack... clack...

The tiny feet landed on the stone wall, making a pleasant sound. The water stains left two deep black, crescent-shaped footprints on the stone wall, stretching further and further away...

They hadn't walked far when a person appeared at the edge of their field of vision, and Yan Ziming walked forward.

"Hello, are you here for a walk too?"

Yan Ziming greeted Xue Yunling, but her question was pointless. Xue Yunling was just like her, walking barefoot along the shore, and two lines of footprints could be faintly seen behind her.

"..." Xue Yunling nodded slightly to her expressionlessly, without saying a word.

This woman was like a block of ice, always wearing the same expression. Yan Ziming wasn't bothered by her; after all, she wasn't targeting him specifically. Everyone has their own way of life.

Speechless.

Two ninth-tier powerhouses, both with unparalleled prestige in China, walked side by side on the shore, enjoying the sea breeze.

Here, one can finally find a rare moment of mental relaxation.

"I heard you're getting married?" Xue Yunling suddenly asked.

"Yes, but not so soon, the date hasn't been set yet."

Yan Ziming answered with a hint of sweetness, and Xue Yunling glanced at her a few more times.

"I met Sister Mo Sheng a while ago, and she said she also wants to have a wedding with you."

"?!"

Xue Yunling staggered slightly, and although she didn't utter a sound, a barely perceptible blush of cherry blossoms appeared on her fresh and delicate face.

"We've already developed to this point, what's there to be shy about?"

Having finally regained some ground against this icy beauty, Yan Ziming looked at her with a slightly playful expression, her bright eyes seemingly reflecting the moon.

"My relationship with her...isn't like that..."

Xue Yunling gave the same calm reply, but her attitude betrayed a hint of panic.

"What are you hiding? I'm still Mo Sheng's best friend."

"She... let her stay there for the rest of her life."

Yan Ziming glanced sideways, realizing that Mo Sheng's long absence due to work had caused Xue Yunling some dissatisfaction.

"You can go find her yourself."

"..."

Yan Ziming blinked. "I came here this time to ease the fighting situation here. If all goes well, you can probably be transferred to Sichuan to see Sister Mo Sheng."

Xue Yunling turned and left, leaving Yan Ziming alone in the spot, watching her retreating figure.

"Thanks......"

whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—

The sea breeze howled, but Yan Ziming didn't hear it; however, a radiant smile appeared on her face.

111. Future Vision

After Xue Yunling left, Yan Ziming strolled around for a while until the sun set, thinking that it was time to get down to business.

He slowly walked back to his original spot, his hands surging with electricity to evaporate the moisture from his damp over-the-knee socks, and then he put them back on.

Snapped!

The sock opening, which had been stretched open by a few fingers, was suddenly loosened, and the sock opening immediately tightened, hitting Yan Ziming's tender thigh with a "smack," sinking slightly in.

"Alright, it's time to get started, Xiao Xi~"

Yan Ziming woke Xiao Xi up, and the ground beneath her feet instantly turned purple, with countless purple veins spreading outwards from her as the center.

From that moment on, Yan Ziming's entire body radiated a dense purple light, and his sequence-level aura surged out overwhelmingly. The clouds in all directions stirred, and the turbulent sea, under the pressure of this aura, could only stop its restless pounding and shrank by more than ten meters.

Then, the purple ground lit up one after another, like stage lights, until it completely enveloped the entire coastal area!

"Goodness, it really is comparable to Laoshan..."

Huang Tao and Qin Tianhai, braving the slightly distorted, scorching winds caused by the powerful aura, watched this miraculous scene, a bead of cold sweat dripping from their foreheads.

In this state, Yan Ziming would have no chance of winning even if the two of them attacked together.

She is now undoubtedly the number one combatant in China.

Suddenly, this frenzied surge of energy vanished like a candle flame in the wind, as if the atmospheric pressure itself had shifted, causing a raging uproar on the sea surface, whipping up enormous waves that crashed against the dam.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle.....

The surging seawater touched this area and was instantly evaporated, creating a misty atmosphere, as if a foggy day had arrived.

Some fearless mutant species tentatively poked their heads out, intending to come ashore, but as soon as their claws touched the shore, they abruptly pulled their hands back, convulsing and thrashing in the seawater for a long time before retreating with trepidation on their faces.

Even worse, some careless individuals can be instantly reduced to charcoal.

Only a few powerful individuals could manage to traverse this land with difficulty, and they were soon struck by crisscrossing lightning, leaving them covered in blood.

This level of ability is rated A.

In this way, even if it cannot stop some overly powerful individuals, it will be enough to stop most mutated species, which can fundamentally alleviate the enormous pressure on the Southern Guangdong Military Administrative Region.

"What do you two think of this result?"

Yan Ziming's voice rang out from behind Huang Tao and Qin Tianhai, who were extremely satisfied.

"good, very good!"

The Southern Guangdong Military Administrative Region has tied down too many of China's high-end combat forces.

Generally speaking, a military administrative region formed by merging several cities only needs two level-nine officers to be stationed there, and it might even be a bit excessive.

But in Nanyue, four of the ninth-ranked individuals were held back. Later, Mo Sheng was transferred to Sichuan, but he still held three. The number of eighth-ranked and seventh-ranked individuals in the three military administrative regions of the country is currently the highest, far exceeding that of Bei'an, which is second.

Given that Qin Tianhai's combat power on the sea is no less than that of a Void Realm expert, it's as if three Void Realm experts are being held back here, unable to attend to other matters, which is a huge waste.

Now, I can finally be free.

"Oh, I should still remind you," Yan Ziming added, as if remembering something.

"There is actually a load value. If too many mutated species flood in at once, or if a very powerful SSS individual attracts too much firepower, its overall effectiveness will be reduced accordingly. Also, its anti-air capability is very weak."

"Even so, it's fine; it can greatly relieve stress."

Qin Tianhai's smile never faded; he was always grinning, which showed that he was genuinely happy.

"Then I'll leave the rest of the cities to you as well, but remember to leave a passage in each direction. I don't want our people to be trapped inside by you."

"No way!" Yan Ziming's face flushed slightly, but thinking about it, it was indeed true. She asked, "How wide should the passage be?"

"One hundred and thirty meters, I guess."

"Ah."

Yan Ziming flashed to another place, and then purple light lit up the four walls of Huahai City, followed by Haitian City... The entire Nanyue Military Administrative Region was almost completely surrounded.

The Southern Guangdong Administrative Region is now truly safe and secure.

In fact, Yan Zimo deserves a great deal of credit for the collapse of Tibet Province. The Thunder and Lightning Pure Land drove away almost all the mutated species, and the place had truly become unsuitable for living organisms, forcing them to migrate and scatter to other places.

"The mission was successfully completed."

Not long after, Yan Ziming returned. By then, Qin Tianhai had already gone back to redeploy manpower, convened all the generals for a meeting overnight, and formulated a new duty system and troop deployment arrangements.

"Thank you for your hard work." Huang Tao looked at her with relief, feeling extremely happy.

Yan Ziming asked with a mix of nervousness and excitement, "Hey, Senior Huang Tao, when will the recapture operation begin?"

"It'll be soon, at most half a month, and the detailed plan will be finalized. You seem quite excited?"

"You are too~"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Both she and Huang Tao had a special attachment to the Jiangning Military Administrative Region.

Huang Tao, in particular, had poured so much effort into that land. When he ordered the abandonment of Jiangning, he must have felt the most resentment.

"When Jiangning is recaptured, will you go back, Senior Huang Tao?"

Yan Ziming looked at Huang Tao with a hint of anticipation.

As the leader of the Jiangning Military Administrative Region, he was undoubtedly one of the leaders with the most distinctive Jiangning flavor. With him, Jiangning truly had its soul.

Huang Tao simply shook his head. "I don't know. It depends on the country's needs. I'll go wherever I'm needed."

Perhaps after recovering Jiangning, he will return to his position as Chief of the General Staff and dedicate the rest of his life to developing the region.

But that's probably unlikely.

Once the Jiangning Military Administrative Region is taken back, Yan Ziming, who has a special attachment to that place, will inevitably move his entire family there.

What an enormous force that was!
