I Can Transform Into a World-Destroying Colossal Beast-Chapter 223 - 217: Turning Misfortune into Blessing
"Jiang Hou, I've recovered. Do you want me to give you a buff?"
As the order for the entire army's action was issued, Jiang Hou received a call from Siyu, thinking of the girl who was excited to have a chance on the front lines.
"...Not this time." Jiang Hou pondered, "Hang up the call first. Let's switch to video; I have some guesses about your Word Spirit power to test."
"Okay." The girl was stunned but obediently hung up and switched to video call.
In the video, the girl was lying on the sofa, her hair tied in a loose ponytail as usual. Her cute and beautiful face had a smile that bloomed like a flower, full of youthful energy.
Immediately, Jiang Hou felt the 'noise' in his ears seemed to have weakened a bit.
"Jiang Hou, how do you use it this time?" Qin Siyu asked.
Jiang Hou thought for a moment, "Siyu, use your Word Spirit power to 'wish,' saying that henceforth, whenever you, uncle, and aunt face danger, you'll turn peril into peace."
The higher he stood, the more information he accessed, and Jiang Hou increasingly felt that the world was about to plunge into chaos.
And he couldn't possibly become a full-time guardian protecting Qin Siyu, Qin Buyi, and the others all the time, at most exchanging for some defensive Extraordinary Equipment for them.
Therefore, it's necessary to implement some protective measures, like the power of Siyu's Word Spirit.
"Can it be used like this? I'll try." Qin Siyu was first stunned, then eager to try.
Under Jiang Hou's gaze, the girl in the video closed her eyes, her tone devout, "Henceforth, whenever I, Jiang Hou, dad, and mom face danger, we'll turn peril into peace."
Buzz! With strong intention in the voice, the mark on the girl's forehead emitted a golden brilliance.
But as soon as the light lit up, it suddenly dimmed without any reaction.
Qin Siyu opened her eyes, feeling the energy inside her forehead mark hadn't dissipated, and stuck out her tongue, "...Jiang Hou, the wish seems too big, I can't use it."
"Nonsense, of course you can't use it when you included me." Jiang Hou was speechless.
His beast form was already Tier Seven Invincible, and Tier Eight wasn't out of reach; an opponent who could make him feel 'dangerous' was either legendary or Demigod-tier life.
The 'causal relationship' involved in this situation was obviously immense.
"However, besides me, time is also an issue."
Jiang Hou thought for a moment, "Siyu, next time you 'wish,' exclude me and change the effective period to half a year. Anyway, your power can recover in two days."
"Okay."
The girl nodded, closed her eyes, and made a renewed 'wish,' "From this moment, within half a year, whenever my parents and I face danger, we'll turn peril into peace."
Buzz! The mark on the girl's forehead shone, brighter than before, transforming into golden ripples that spread in all directions.
But just when those ripples were about to cover Qin Siyu, they suddenly stagnated, seemingly lacking energy and once again disappeared.
And after two 'tests,' the light from Qin Siyu's mark also dimmed slightly, indicating this behavior wasn't without consumption.
"Change the time to half a month."
"Okay!"
Buzz! After Qin Siyu changed the period of peril turning into peace to half a month, the light on her forehead shone brilliantly, and a circle of golden light diffused and disappeared into the world.
Strangely, Qin Siyu felt that there seemed to be something more on her body, yet also nothing.
Qin Siyu blinked her eyes and touched the air with surprise, "Jiang Hou, it's amazing. I feel like my luck might be good recently."
"Not bad." Jiang Hou showed a faint smile.
However, today's test revealed a problem: the stronger the 'individual' involved in Qin Siyu's power, and the clearer the requirement, the greater the limitation.
Therefore, the power of Word Spirit is more suitable for guided use.
Later, they might try to 'enhance' Qin Siyu's 'strength,' such as evolution of the physical body, and also experimenting with 'Martial Dao' studies. Wishes for short-term enhancement of understanding can also be considered.
......
Beep, beep beep!!
"Report, satellite detected large-scale movements of the Eastern Qin Alliance Army, advancing quickly in an encircling trend towards mutant areas."
"Bombers from the Third Corps of the Alliance have already reached the range of the 074 stationed corps."
"The 114 stationed corps is calling for support; they've been attacked by Eastern Qin Transcendents, and their defense line was breached immediately, causing heavy casualties..."
In the rear command post of the Western Continent Alliance's west line stationed division, urgent alert sounds kept ringing, and corps along several battle lines on both sides were requesting aid.
The vice commander responsible for stationing looked grim, "What does the Main Battle Corps say? Haven't they sent any Saint-level powerhouses yet?"
The subordinate officer respectfully stated, "We've already called the Main Battle Corps, but Vice Commander Bai said their mission is to annihilate the enemy's main forces, not to handle garrison affairs."
"Damn, these people from the Black Dragon Hall only care about snatching battle achievements, completely ignoring the rear."
"Doesn't she know that once the rear falls, and supplies are cut off, even if she defeats Abudan's last main corps, it will be useless."
The subordinate officer shook his head with a wry smile, "She won't care about these, Commander. Her current major goal is to complete the ritual and step into legend."
"Once successful, her identity, status, and strength will ascend to another level, so even sacrificing everyone on the western front is worth it."
Bang!
The vice commander's hand slammed on the desk as he stood up in anger, "Damn, I can't understand why the higher-ups handed the corps command to someone who disregards the big picture."
"Because the first objective for this campaign against Abudan has been achieved. If they could gain an additional legend, it would be a bonus."
"As for the death of tens of thousands of alliance soldiers on the western front, the Purple Dragon Hall's Hall Master wouldn't care, so Commander, we need to plan ahead."
"If there's no other option, let's give up those control areas to the Eastern Qin Alliance Army to conserve our forces."
"Or request support from those in the Purple Dragon Hall, otherwise without an equal number of Saint-level powerhouses, we simply can't withstand those Celestial Punishment powerhouses."
The subordinate officer's words caused the vice commander to fall silent for a moment, then sigh.
"I've already contacted Ke Min, but he said he's not interested in battlefield affairs and will not allocate small teams of Saint-level powerhouses for support."
"As for Marshal Alves, who sits on the western front, he's likely already deep in the Ancient Divine Realm and unreachable."
Among the three major Transcendent Powers, the power balance between the Celestial Punishment and Demon Dragon Divine Hall is about equal, so when Celestial Punishment takes it seriously, the number of Demon Dragon Divine Hall powerhouses is relatively lacking.
For instance, the stationed division with over ten thousand troops now has only Li Minkang, a single Saint-level powerhouse as vice commander.
Excluding the nine saints stationed at Abudan's remaining military base, Celestial Punishment Saint-level powerhouses suppressing mutants in polluted areas numbered seven.
These individuals could erupt with force equivalent to small nuclear warheads, and their mobility was terrifying without equivalent powerhouses to restrain them, they were practically unstoppable.
"Withdraw, everyone retreat, retreat to the Huai Mountain line for stationing."
"They want it, I'll give it to them." Li Min directly ordered, making the corps stationed in over a dozen cities retreat one to two thousand kilometers to form a defense line.
Leaving Abudan's majority territory to the other side's border.
As for the problem of pollution spreading, mutant monsters, and logistics breakdown, with the Main Battle Corps isolated in combat, who cares.
