Post-Apocalyptic Rebirth: The Ghost Guanyin Transforms into a God

That violent storm was like an alarm bell, sounding the alarm bells in people's hearts. Old Lu's expression was obscure in the shadows of the light.

Miao Yin's purpose seems straightforward and simple.

She said she wanted power.

Is there anything more tempting than the core of the Crimson Catastrophe?

Old Master Lu looked at her intently: "Originally, I planned to have Peng Si lead the team to open the armory. Young lady, your words came at just the right time. Now I don't know whether I should give this order or not."

Compared to the devastating crimson catastrophe and the technology accumulated by human civilization over thousands of years, he was truly faced with a difficult choice.

"The armory will be opened sooner or later. It'll either be you or it, Mr. Lu. Which one do you want to choose?"

"..."

Old Master Lu raised his head slightly: "Since you've brought it up, there must be a solution to this matter."

The walls built could not stop the flood. He quickly made a decision and realized that since Miao Yin wanted to go to the armory, there was no reason for him to die there.

"That depends on what Old Master Lu has to offer." The woman smiled, revealing her fangs. "Putting everything else aside, using the crystal cores in your warehouse to buy the information I have, isn't that a good deal?"

Since learning of the existence of crystal cores, the base has been deliberately collecting them.

Every time the army is dispatched to clear out the mutants, it brings back a portion of crystal cores as a strategic reserve. The government's own trained superhumans are developed using these cores.

As hired ability users, aside from their missions, they can keep the extra crystal cores and resources they receive for their own use and do not have to hand them over.

Of course, there are also some people with special abilities in the base. They are unwilling to go out and face the mutants. They can only exchange crystal cores for increasing their power by protecting the base and maintaining its operation.

In addition, some crystal nuclei were sent to the laboratory to study this new power.

Therefore, to date, the number of crystal cores in the Dream City warehouse is only a little over four hundred, which can only cultivate three S-level ability users like Gong Jingming.

"I'll give you half, and the other half, the accommodation and supplies you want, are also available to you," Old Lu said.

Compared to the Crimson Catastrophe and the Armory, this half of the crystal cores is still within the scope of loss.

"Two-thirds," the other party said, raising the price in a nonchalant manner.

Miao Yin never lacked supplies or shelter; the crystal cores were the most valuable thing.

"All I can give you is half, unless the information you provide exceeds the value of that half of the crystal core."

"Old Lu, you must know the power of the Crimson Catastrophe, right?"

"That's why I can only give you half."

If it really is the Crimson Catastrophe, then the base must be prepared to fight to the death. At that time, these crystal cores will be used to expand the ranks of those with superpowers.

He needs to give the base some breathing room.

“Young lady, I think you should know what it was like when the Crimson Catastrophe was born,” Old Lu said solemnly, suppressing the trembling of his lips.

Miao Yin naturally knew this.

The first mutant in recorded history to be confirmed as having a red crystal core was named Bakuku.

The colossal creature that blotted out the sky first appeared in a village on the border; on the other side lay the technologically backward country of Z.

Faced with such a disaster, technologically backward countries are almost powerless to fight back, and the ghouls grow bigger and bigger under such feeding.

Its body splits into countless tentacles, enough to crush floors; it is incredibly huge, and a single stomp could even crush a town.

Most deadly of all, it also carried a deadly plague that spread as it moved, causing widespread devastation wherever it went.

Fortunately, its slow movement gives people some breathing room.

However, Z Country's laissez-faire attitude eventually led to disaster. Once the Explosive Eater completely surpassed the pink crystal core level, nothing could stop it anymore.

Country Z was almost completely destroyed by it, and the remaining people are struggling with the plague.

Finally, it returned to the border, approaching Jingzhou.

The human wall of flesh and blood on the border held out for only two hours before no one could stop it anymore.

Finally, the military launched the "falling star".

The nuclear weapons, which were kept separately in the Qilin Mountain Armory due to their special nature, eventually came in handy.

After a nuclear strike, everything is reduced to ashes.

This was the first Scarlet Catastrophe to be eradicated in human history, but not the last; however, it was the only one that prompted humanity to use nuclear weapons.

The Bakugan left a hole in the earth, and the border between the two countries was completely sealed off from then on, with no living creature ever setting foot there again.

The military was severely weakened and all troops were forced to retreat to Dream City to recuperate.

If there hadn't been a contingency plan to use the "falling star" from the beginning, and if the evacuation hadn't been directed in time, they would have been completely wiped out.

By this time, Bakugo was already dead.

That's why Elder Lu has such concerns, fearing that if they see a second Bakugo, they will be powerless to resist.

However, he did not know that if Miao Yin had not gone to the Yao Ri Shopping Mall, they would have seen a second Scarlet Calamity.

In the previous life, Bakushi was the first to appear, followed by Renxiaonu who escaped after the mall was blown up. Soon after, the third Scarlet Calamity Mother Goddess will appear in Country A and wreak havoc.

The ranking of the Crimson Calamities is never based on their strength, because no one can define exactly how strong they are; it is usually judged by the harm they cause.

To reach the level of harm caused by a blast is a once-in-a-century event.

However, since that's the explanation, Miao Yin naturally didn't press the matter further.

She only wanted to rip him off; she didn't intend to completely ruin Mengcheng.

"Deal. You know where I am right now, just deliver it to me."

Old Master Lu is a pillar of Mengcheng. Since he recognized Miao Yin, Peng Si's little tricks naturally couldn't escape his eyes.

Miao Yin leaned back on the sofa, her long legs stretched out freely, and held up one finger: "Since that's the case, I'll tell you something. In the places I've seen, both Dream City and Moon City will be affected after the armory opens—"

"Total destruction."

Time seemed to stand still for a few seconds as the old man gripped his cane so tightly that his fingers turned white, like vines clinging to a dead tree.

After a long pause, he said in a hoarse voice, "Prophecy can be changed."

"Any change requires the efforts of the parties involved. To avoid this, Dream City must first reserve enough strength for itself."

Old Lu quickly recalled the size of the team and the weapons he had previously approved and reported.

"You mean, reduce the number of personnel going to the weapons depot?"

“It’s firearms,” Miao Yin answered. “Abandon your cannons and machine guns. Those things are useless. Leave them in Dream City. What you should really take are the ability users.”

Old Lu put down his cane: "Tell me in detail."
