Cosmic-Level Demon God

"Are you a 'cow' or a 'horse'?"

Qin Shi sheathed his blade and turned around. With the help of [Insight], he could see the short-haired woman neither possessed high value nor any strange aura.

"Ahem, I'm the captain, 'Fated Misery'."

The short-haired woman introduced herself, worried that the boss might go on a killing spree and take her out as well.

Such things have happened before; most of the backup team's clients come from large aristocratic families and noble clans.

Their lavish, life-loving patrons are rarely normal people.

For example, the Ying family is renowned in Dongxia for their astonishing "sowing compulsion," with chaotic private lives regardless of gender.

The first-generation heirs of this generation even include an "Ying Mi" who likes to collect pretty boys.

Their unrestrained style leaves the young masters of the Imperial Capital in awe.

As for the rumors about "being ruthless enough to cut down their own," they stem from the Yang family of Hongzhou.

Whether it's inheriting the Yang Grand Marshal's love for armored combat and personally entering the battlefield, the Yang descendants are admired for their martial spirit and are fiercely bold.

Every year, they hold the grandiose "Four Seasons Hunt" to select the elite among their clansmen.

It is said that after a bloody battle, many Yang descendants exhibit terrifying combat prowess.

They once created a notorious history in the "mercenary world" by slicing through the enemy like vegetables while simultaneously inflicting severe damage on their entire team.

This has led to Yang's descendants being listed as the most unpopular clients.

"How did you get in? This is a restricted area. Apart from the warriors from White Poplar Barrier City and 'servant soldiers' with passes, no one else can enter."

Qin Shi slowly approached and curiously asked.

Earlier, he had wondered how Ying Huang ensured the backup team could promptly provide supplies and assistance.

This was on a chaotic frontline!

"We belong to Xuyang Heavy Industry."

The short-haired woman held her breath, despite the fact that the young man before her had clear eyes and a friendly demeanor.

But witnessing the opponent draw his blade to slay many Void Beasts, completing the sweep in seconds.

It was hard for the short-haired woman to see him as a "harmless minor high school student."

The sense of danger threatened to overflow from her heart!

"Xuyang Heavy Industry is a Military Department-approved defense contractor that frequently participates in battle group deployments.

Therefore, their staff generally have licensed access to the battlefield.

I'm a P9 at Xuyang Heavy Industry, boss!"

Qin Shi nodded, a look of realization on his face.

Lin Yunqing had explained to him the hierarchical divisions within super-corporations and huge enterprises.

Generally, they are mainly divided into "technical" and "management" positions.

New graduates usually start at the P4 (Basic Level Engineer) or P5 (Intermediate Level Engineer) tiers.

After accumulating three to five years of work experience, they get a chance to be promoted to P6 (Senior Engineer).

The term "P9" used by the short-haired woman refers to a "senior expert," a core member of the company.

They must have participated in several large-scale projects and performed outstandingly to rise to this rank.

Judging by the short-haired woman's age, she was about twenty-five or six, surprisingly stable in a P9 position at Xuyang Heavy Industry.

Qin Shi squinted, considering two possibilities: either she was incredibly capable, or she had strong backing.

"What about her? Spiritual Ability Path?"

Qin Shi lifted his chin, looking at the bowl-cut girl with her eyes covered.

"Codename 'Ama,' reporting to you, boss!"

At the sound, the bowl-cut girl stood up straight, causing a violent tremor in her chest. Her exaggerated curves were so astonishing that even Qin Shi couldn't help but linger his gaze for two more seconds.

Despite being on the same Spiritual Ability Path, Teacher Lin had far less to offer, having only a pair of long legs.

"Ama is a P8 (Advanced Expert), a graduate of Southwest United Spiritual Ability System, and an admirer of your senior, Miss Yu Weiwei."

The short-haired woman quickly introduced:

"Her specialty is 'Analysis' and 'Resonance.' She can establish a spiritual link, allowing shared perceptions, and capture the exact aura of enemy units for analysis."

The most common career path in the Spiritual Ability Path, "Strategic Intelligence Officer"!

Qin Shi nodded, his gaze returning to the short-haired woman.

She quickly laid out her background:

"I am an assault specialist with the trait 'Divine Martial.' It temporarily enhances Life Force and boosts combat prowess, allowing me to discover flaws and weaknesses the longer I engage with an enemy."

Qin Shi raised an eyebrow, showing some interest in his eyes.

The short-haired woman's trait was indeed rare.

An important measure of practical combat level in the Martial Arts Path is the so-called "battle instinct."

Victories in life-or-death fights are never guaranteed to the side with higher Life Force values.

It depends on the understanding of the legacy, the tempering of the Mortal Body, and the timing of opportunities... influenced by a series of factors.

The short-haired woman's "Divine Martial" trait could automatically detect the deficiencies and vulnerabilities of a strong foe based on combat duration.

It's almost like having a cheat!

Qin Shi inwardly protested and expressed vehement condemnation!

No wonder Jiang Shijie of the Seventh Battle Group's Wind Scythe Sequence Army looked at him with disbelief after learning his trait was 'Amplification.'

Compared to the short-haired woman's "mechanic-type trait," the amplification seemed unimpressive, plain as day.

"You came just in time."

After understanding the backup team, Qin Shi laughed:

"There are quite a few pollution samples in this substation; I can't carry them all by myself."

Turning into a baggage handler?

The short-haired woman inwardly gritted her teeth, wanting to loudly proclaim that she was a senior expert at Xuyang Heavy Industry, who had faced all kinds of storms and slaughtered all sorts of familiars!

How could she accept becoming a human-shaped backpack!

"What's the matter?"

Qin Shi shot her a curious glance.

"Alright, boss! I've never slacked off on physical tests my entire life; carrying weight cross-country is no big deal!"
