"A blood-red fox that spews poisonous mist?"
Jiang Nian'an frowned, trying hard to recall what she knew about this mutated creature.
"Some are dead, some are unconscious..."
Shen Nanxing looked at Qin Ran, his eyes flickering, "Then how did you escape that fox's attack?"
He began to have doubts.
This kid isn't even top-tier in terms of strength, yet he managed to escape unscathed?
Upon hearing this, Qin Ran's face immediately showed a look of lingering fear.
"To be honest, I'm quite fortunate about this."
As he recounted what had just happened, a hint of fear still lingered in his eyes.
"I am a wind elemental. When it spewed poisonous mist at me, I changed the direction of the airflow in time and blew the poisonous mist elsewhere."
Then, before it could react, it quickly climbed up the tree.
Although the blood-red fox's claws were incredibly sharp, it couldn't climb trees.
Moreover, it wasn't very big, so it couldn't knock down any big trees, which is how I escaped a disaster.
It's just a pity about my two brothers. I was only thinking of myself and couldn't save them.
Qin Ran sighed heavily, her face filled with regret and sadness.
In that precarious situation, he could only prioritize his own life.
Fortunately, he was very mischievous when he was young and learned to climb trees, otherwise he would be lying on the ground now, his fate unknown—waiting to die.
Sigh, people should learn more skills; you never know when you might need them.
Qin Ran couldn't help but think to himself.
Upon hearing this answer, Shen Nanxing didn't say anything, only nodded, but he still harbored suspicion and wariness towards Qin Ran.
Jiang Nian'an had already recalled what the blood-red fox Qin Ran had mentioned was.
Poisonous Blood Fox.
The term "poison type" is exactly what it sounds like: superpowers involving poison.
Some mutated creatures develop special types of superpowers—poison-based superpowers—after undergoing a second mutation.
However, the chances of developing poison-based abilities are not high, but the ways in which they manifest are the most numerous of all abilities.
Some poison-based superpowers can dissolve directly into the body, such as blood, flesh, and fur...
Other organisms, including humans, can be poisoned by touching parts of these organisms that carry toxins.
Some, like venomous snakes, have venom sacs inside their bodies, where all the venom is stored.
The toxicity and effects also vary.
Some are highly poisonous, causing death upon contact. Others are similar to sedatives, inducing unconsciousness.
There are also things like laxatives and itching medications...
In short, they are bizarre and unpredictable, making them impossible to guard against.
Generally speaking, the venom of a venomous mutant organism either dissolves in its body or develops a venom sac.
But this blood fox is different.
It not only produces venom sacs to store poison, but even its blood and fur are poisonous.
The only difference is the degree of toxicity.
The most potent toxins are found in the venom sac, followed by the blood, and then the hair.
However, in her previous life, she had never seen a poison-type blood fox in person; she had only heard about it from others.
Those people also said that this blood fox was different from other mutated foxes.
The other foxes all grew larger after the mutation.
Only this blood fox did not grow bigger; instead, it shrank.
It is said that the largest is no more than 30 centimeters long, and the smallest is only the size of a palm.
The smaller the blood fox, the more potent its venom.
How big was that blood fox?
Thinking of this, Jiang Nian'an couldn't help but look up at Qin Ran.
"perhaps--"
Qin Ran gestured with his hand, "Thirty centimeters or so, not big, but very fast."
A look of doubt flashed in his eyes. "I thought it came looking for food, but it ran away after catching people."
"Let's put aside the fox for now and think about how to save them!"
Luo Yue noticed that the bodyguard's breathing was getting weaker and weaker, and she couldn't help but get anxious.
After hearing her words, Jiang Nian'an looked down at the unconscious bodyguard.
Unless the poison is fatal, people with superpowers can slowly expel it from their bodies by activating their abilities.
The fact that the bodyguard and the people nearby were still alive indicates that the blood fox's poison was not extremely potent and could be expelled by activating its special abilities.
But the difficulty now is that all of these people are unconscious.
"Find a way to wake them up."
Jiang Nian'an continued to look at the unconscious bodyguards on the ground and calmly said, "It's obvious that their superpowers can fight this poison, which means that as long as they wake up and activate their superpowers, they should be able to expel the poison."
Upon hearing this, Shen Nanxing suddenly waved his hand and unleashed a bolt of lightning at the unconscious bodyguard on the ground.
'Crackling'
A powerful electric current coursed through the bodyguard's body, causing him to groan in agony, "Ugh..."
He then slowly woke up, a look of confusion in his eyes.
The next moment, the poison flared up again, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he was about to fall into a coma again.
"Quickly activate your superpower to remove the poison, or you'll really die!"
Jiang Nian'an's voice rang out in the bodyguard's ears like a thunderclap.
Upon hearing the word "death," the bodyguard shuddered violently, his survival instinct causing him to subconsciously activate his supernatural power.
As the supernatural power flowed through his body, the bodyguard's bruised face gradually returned to normal, and his eyes became clear.
Seeing this, Luo Yue's eyes flashed with hope, and she quickly turned to the other bodyguards behind her and said, "Go and save the others."
"Yes, Miss!"
A dozen bodyguards immediately ran toward the survivors who were still alive not far away.
'Swish swish—'
Just then, a rustling sound suddenly came from the bushes behind them.
Shen Nanxing immediately pulled Jiang Nian'an into his arms and simultaneously unleashed several bolts of lightning towards the bushes.
A foul, burnt smell emanated from the bushes, and the rustling sounds ceased.
"Yueyue, get behind me!"
Luo Yi pulled Luo Yue behind him and called out to the bodyguards, "Come back and protect Yueyue!"
How can a stranger's life compare to his sister's life!
"But brother—" Luo Yue couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Shut up!"
Faced with unknown dangers, Luo Yi forbade Luo Yue from acting recklessly.
