"The demons' pure physical attacks cannot destroy this gate, but they cannot withstand attacks from high-level demons. The dungeons in the United States are based on technology purchased from us. It is said that a while ago, a fire-type demon burned the entire base to ashes with a single fire."
Li Weiguo sighed and continued, "After that incident, we realized even more that although technology is advanced, it is still fragile in the face of absolute power."
High-level demons possess power that ordinary technology cannot contend with.
After Chu Wanwan followed Li Weiguo into the passage, the door slowly closed. The lights inside the passage immediately turned on, and Chu Wanwan saw that not only the door, but also the four walls of the passage were paved with this material.
Walking through it feels like walking through a high-tech spaceship from a movie.
The passage continued downwards, and after an unknown amount of time, another high-tech door appeared. Opening the door revealed a bright and spacious interior.
Inside, many people were wearing uniforms and busily moving between various high-tech devices. Although their faces showed fatigue, their eyes shone with determination and hope.
This is the first level of the underground city, a place where weapons and toxins to fight demons are developed.
Chu Wanwan followed Li Weiguo and saw a little demon tied to an experimental table in the laboratory.
Researchers were injecting a red liquid into the demon's body. Instead of dying, the demon became even more violent.
"Stop developing toxins to fight demons. Demons are a type of magical beast, and anything bad is their nourishment. Toxins not only won't harm them, but may even enhance their strength."
Before Chu Wanwan could finish speaking, the demon injected with the red liquid suddenly let out a deafening roar and struggled to break free of its restraints.
Its muscles bulged, its skin turned bright red, and its eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty light, clearly made even more ferocious by the stimulation of the toxin.
The researchers watched in horror as the demon broke free of its restraints, then turned and ran out of the laboratory.
"Quickly, activate the emergency procedures!" Li Weiguo shouted, pressing a button as he did so. Instantly, several robotic arms extended from the laboratory wall, attempting to re-bind the demon.
However, the demon's power had increased dramatically, and it easily broke free from the mechanical arm's restraints, charging towards the laboratory's glass door. Although the laboratory's windows were all tempered glass, the impact still shattered them.
Seeing this, Chu Wanwan acted swiftly, unleashing a burst of spiritual energy that instantly struck the demon. However, instead of immediately destroying it, the energy formed a binding force, temporarily immobilizing the raging demon. The demon roared angrily, struggling to break free from the spiritual energy's restraint.
“Your research direction is wrong.” Chu Wanwan looked at the frozen demon and turned to the researchers. “To deal with demons, we can’t rely on unorthodox methods like poison. Lightning and light are very effective against demons. You can try using lasers or electricity to deal with them.”
Chu Wanwan made a suggestion based on the attributes of the demons.
Although the researchers didn't know who Chu Wanwan was, seeing her just demonstrate her skills and General Li's respectful attitude towards her, they knew that Chu Wanwan was no ordinary person, and they all nodded in agreement with her opinion.
“We will immediately adjust our research direction and try to use lasers and electricity to fight the demons,” a researcher on behalf of the team responded.
Chu Wanwan did not stop these people from conducting research. People from the Immortal Realm could not easily interfere with the development of the lower realm. It was good for them to focus on developing their own combat capabilities so that they would be able to fight back when they encountered monsters like demons.
Chu Wanwan casually waved her hand, and the frozen demon instantly turned to ashes. This demon had become severely corrupted and would become extremely bloodthirsty. These ordinary people could no longer study it, so it was safer to kill it.
Li Weiguo led Chu Wanwan onward. The next level was the planting area, which was carefully divided into several sections, each planted with different plants.
Due to insufficient lighting in the underground city, special growth lights were used to simulate natural light, ensuring that the plants could carry out normal photosynthesis.
Chu Wanwan walked over and looked at the plants, finding them all wilted and lifeless.
Occasionally, grains and fruits may bear fruit, but they are small and shriveled, with no nutritional value whatsoever.
Chu Wanwan reached out, and many green light spots spilled from her fingertips. These light spots entered the poorly growing plants, and the plants visibly regained their vitality. The originally withered leaves gradually unfolded and became even greener.
The originally shriveled fruits, nourished by the green light spots, began to slowly become plump again.
The soldiers and researchers were all amazed by what they saw.
The immortals truly lived up to their name, so easily reviving these withered plants. Their eyes shone with even greater reverence and gratitude as they looked at Chu Wanwan, as if they had seen a glimmer of hope.
"It's amazing! These plants have been brought back to life by the fairy!" a soldier exclaimed.
“Yes, with these vibrant plants, our food supply problem can be greatly alleviated,” another researcher said excitedly.
"Is China short of food?" Chu Wanwan asked casually.
"We're short of supplies! The combat personnel get two meals a day, but ordinary civilians only get one, and they're still not full! Fairy, can you help us?" Li Weiguo was thrilled to see Chu Wanwan's plan.
"Okay. I'll help you grow a batch of food before you leave..."
Chu Wanwan's words excited everyone. Li Weiguo was especially moved to tears.
"Thank you, fairy. We will remember your great kindness." Li Weiguo bowed deeply to express his deep gratitude.
Chu Wanwan simply smiled, walked to the center of the planting area, closed her eyes, and began to gather spiritual energy. Green spiritual energy slowly flowed from her body, seeping into the soil and nourishing every plant.
Nourished by spiritual energy, the plants seemed to be infused with new life and began to grow wildly. Plants that would normally take months or even years to mature bore abundant fruit in a short time under Chu Wanwan's spiritual energy catalysis.
The soldiers and researchers watched this scene with excitement and surprise in their eyes.
When Chu Wanwan stopped channeling spiritual energy and opened her eyes, she saw a vibrant scene. Plump fruits hung from the branches, and the grain crops were golden, ready for harvest.
