The dragon's breath attack collapsed before An Nuan could even examine it.
Gigantic waves crashed down onto the sea surface.
Upon hitting the light barrier, they were repelled several zhang high.
Fu Yunting held An Nuan, pressing her head into his chest.
An Nuan: Really, t—
Now the air was filled with poisonous gas.
An Nuan quickly gave Yun Man medicine, and Yun Man's complexion improved slightly.
"Xiao Yu's poison is so potent, it can paralyze even me. What about the others?"
A large number had already fallen...
The members of the community were not too badly affected; they had all been vaccinated to some degree, and the children had resistance to the poison.
However, the rest of the people were not so fortunate.
Those who had joined recently and other survivors had not been vaccinated and had no antitoxin. They were completely defenseless!
An Nuan was covered in a cold sweat.
"Did we… accidentally commit a massacre?"
Fu Yunting frowned, holding An Nuan's hand, silent for a long time.
Xiao Yu also noticed at this moment.
The purple mist was being blown towards the city by the wind.
Hiss~~
Fu Yunting understood; Xiao Yu was also afraid of harming innocent people.
But the wind direction was a problem that couldn't be immediately solved.
They didn't have enough antidote and serum.
Even if they did, how could they distribute it to so many people?
How could they administer it to everyone in three minutes?
Fu Yunting was not a god; he couldn't freeze time for the entire city.
An Nuan's lips trembled, "So many people will die..."
"Perhaps many have antibodies and won't die."
"Half of them? Tens of thousands will die, right?"
The difference between killing tens of thousands and instantly killing hundreds of thousands was immense.
An Nuan's heart pounded, "Are so many people really going to die? Is there no other way? I'll try to absorb the gas. If I can collect all the gas into my space, maybe there's still hope!"
Nine-Headed Shark burst into laughter, "They're all dead! I wanted to kill you, but you helped me kill so many people. It was worth it!"
Nine-Headed Shark's body swelled, concentrating all its crystals onto itself.
The energy of the crystals stimulated each other, and light was transmitted from its massive head.
An Nuan: "It's going to self-destruct!"
Even one crystal's self-destruction was terrifying; if so many crystals detonated simultaneously, even Xiao Yu couldn't withstand it!
"Xiao Yu, get out of the way!"
Xiao Yu swiftly dodged aside.
A giant curtain unfurled from below, preparing to engulf Nine-Headed Shark.
This was An Nuan's first time engulfing something so large, and she felt a bit uneasy.
Killing zombies was much easier than killing this monster!
Nine-Headed Shark faced An Nuan directly, "Thief who stole my eye! You still carry the scent of my brother!"
"It doesn't matter if you kill me today; this city's people will be my escorts. It's all your fault!"
"They all died because of you!"
An Nuan hesitated, and the devouring speed of the starry curtain slowed.
Nine-Headed Shark was on the verge of exploding.
Fu Yunting: "Xiao Nuan, don't listen to its nonsense. Even if everyone in the city dies, it's not our doing. We are not butchers!"
An Nuan clenched her fists.
She understood the logic.
But the thought of causing the poisonous gas to spread throughout the city because she hunted a shark made her feel terrible.
Twelve Bridges felt a sudden heat.
A red glow appeared on Yun Man's face.
But it was definitely not Yun Man's.
"Did something catch fire somewhere?"
Twelve Bridges turned his head and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
Gui Tian also looked over.
Having lived for five hundred years, she had never seen such a creature.
It was just like… a phoenix!
A fiery red giant bird, with enormous wings spread, flew towards them from the other end of the city.
The flames trailing from its wings and tail dispersed the purple poisonous gas.
The poisonous gas seemed to fear it, veering away completely as it approached.
The fiery red giant bird suddenly transformed from red to gold.
It let out a cry, and golden light rippled outwards like waves.
The poison was instantly… purified!
Was it light-elemental, or holy power?
An Nuan had never seen such an ability before, and had rarely even heard of it. She had only heard whispers of it from high-ranking individuals in other bases during inter-base communications.
Holy power that could purify filth and poison.
Wasn't this a power that only existed in fairy tales? It was real!
The fire-gold giant bird flew towards them, circling in the sky above the sea.
Zhai Yangyang sniffed the air and bleated a few times towards the giant bird, as if asking for a hug.
An Nuan: "Could it be an old acquaintance?"
The giant bird suddenly spoke, "CoCo is an acquaintance, a very, very familiar one~~"
"CoCo!"
Everyone's mouths hung open in disbelief, their eyes nearly bulging out.
Was this the silly CoCo?
The voice didn't sound the same; it was much smarter than CoCo!
But the tone was indeed very similar!
An Nuan looked at it in surprise, "Is it really CoCo? How did it get so big?"
It was as tall as a ten-story building.
Damn, how did it suddenly grow so large?
With this size, it wouldn't fit in the house; it could only live in the zoo!
