"Boom!"
The tentacles drew ever closer, like a giant meat grinder, and even the seaweed quickly retreated.
The young man said, "Here's a piece of advice: if you still want to save the last few lives, go to the west gate of the city. Your teammates are waiting for you."
But when I got there, they had already been attacked. If you had arrived later, you probably would have only been able to collect their corpses.
Yan Guanshan suddenly woke up and was about to leave when he remembered the young man and looked back at him.
The young man understood his look and scoffed, "You're not worried about me, are you? This little octopus isn't even good enough to fill my teeth!"
Yan Guanshan suddenly realized what kind of monster the person standing in front of him was.
He turned and left without hesitation.
As his speed increased, the video content stretched into a color bar.
When he finally reached the west gate of the city, he saw a huge, black and red Styx jellyfish floating above the gate.
It is one of the forbidden monsters, the "Styx Jellyfish." It is a mutation of the native deep-sea Styx Jellyfish.
The seawater had risen to waist level, and the Styx jellyfish's enormous umbrella-shaped, bell-like structure was suspended in the air, with countless "paddle-like" arms submerged in the seawater, with seaweed clinging to them.
At the city gate, a group of more than fifty people were struggling to resist the constantly swirling tentacles.
They had clearly been through a tough battle, and they were all in a sorry state.
Just as someone was being wrapped around the waist and almost cut in two, Yan Guanshan activated [Phoenix Fire], his phoenix wings unfurled, and he transformed into a shooting star as he rushed forward.
One shot!
A section of the Styx jellyfish's tentacle was severed!
Yan Guanshan caught the person and put him down, then took a closer look.
These people were not elite squads at all; they were clearly squad leaders from various districts of Chaohai City. In addition to the squad leaders, there were also some members of the teams with aristocratic backgrounds among them.
Some of them brought their families, including mothers carrying their children on their backs.
Yan Guanshan was speechless.
He suddenly remembered Bai Bing and Yan Lin.
He knew that these two were the people the region most wanted to protect, but coincidentally, they both chose to stay in Chaohai City.
He then realized that Yan Lin's last words were extremely solemn;
Bai Bing's final look at him was incredibly resolute.
He... didn't want to leave either!
The forbidden monster, the sea monster, is not invincible!
"Brother Yan..."
A weak voice rang out.
It was the teammate he had rescued; he looked to be in very bad shape due to the venom of the Styx jellyfish.
"Brother Yan...you should go. Take everyone who can still hold on and go. I can't go on..."
His eyes reddened: "Brother Yan, please, take care of my wife, okay? She...she's pregnant..."
Yan Guanshan was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and saw another female squad leader standing beside him, her face already streaked with tears. Her belly was visibly swollen.
Yan Guanshan's earlier idea of going back to make a big splash vanished instantly. He couldn't... he couldn't do whatever he wanted anymore!
However, shortly after, another piece of bad news arrived:
"Brother Yan, we... we've all lost our superpowers..."
"What?" Yan Guanshan exclaimed in surprise.
“Brother Yan, we all took the medicine that Lieutenant Yan gave us before, and we didn’t feel anything at the time.”
But after encountering that plant attack today, we discovered that the potion can repel the plant spores, but the price is... losing our superpowers..."
Yan Guanshan was speechless for a moment.
His special ability, Phoenix Fire, is effective against plants, which is why he avoided having to eliminate his ability.
However, just thinking about it, he could feel how terrible it would be to lose his superpowers.
No wonder, none of them fought back when they were attacked!
It turns out they simply had no ability to fight back!
"Walk!"
Yan Guanshan gritted his teeth: "Everyone, those who can run, take care of those who can't walk. Follow me, I'll lead the way, let's rush out together!"
"But, Brother Yan... the protective shield is already activated..."
Everyone's faces were ashen.
Once the protective shield is activated, they are trapped in the abyss, waiting to die.
Yan Guanshan appeared remarkably calm: "I have a way to get you out of here."
"Listen up, you are the only ones in this city who might survive! You have to get out of here no matter what! Stay strong!"
"Listen! Because of you, Chaohai City is not dead!"
Encouraged, everyone followed closely behind Yan Guanshan.
The Styx jellyfish has low intelligence and is not as agile as the tentacle monsters, but because it is highly venomous and has a huge size, it still poses a deadly threat to them.
"I'll distract it. You all go out of the city gate and get to the edge of the protective shield!"
"Speak!" Yan Guanshan flapped his phoenix wings and took off!
The enormous Styx jellyfish made him appear exceptionally small.
However, amidst the gray-blue expanse, that single point of golden-red light was impossible to ignore.
Flames swirled around him, spear pointed forward, body moved with the spear—
break!
The water wall raised by the Styx jellyfish was torn apart by the phoenix fire, and a large amount of water mist was scattered. A figure rushed out and crashed heavily into the huge fleshy umbrella!
"boom--"
The massive body was thrown backward by the impact, splashing water everywhere.
While Yan Guanshan was engaged in battle with them, the people below quickly retreated outside the city.
The protective shield extends two miles outward from the city's defense mechanism.
Yan Guanshan continuously unleashed a high-intensity barrage of Phoenix Fire, suppressing the Styx Jellyfish and giving it no chance to breathe.
The Styx jellyfish was clearly panicked, and a silken tentacle quickly spread into the city, presumably seeking help.
But then, the tentacle was quickly frozen by the ice that spread throughout the city!
