Chapter 558: Chapter 558
Zhao Changsheng had released just the first thunderbolt, but soon, the thing underwater surged up again. This time, the body that emerged was even larger and denser with water plants.
All the superpower users were fighting for their lives, attacking furiously.
Several fireballs struck the wall, instantly igniting the gasoline, but under the torrential rain, this was still far from enough.
"Ah! Save me! Save me!"
Su Mo had just jumped back to the ground when the leg of a speed superpower user on the wall got hooked by water plants, dragging him rapidly upwards.
Su Mo immediately ran over, and with her Tang Blade in her left hand, she chopped down and rescued the person.
At this moment, Lu Chen’s eyes were fixed on the person who was moving so fast that his figure was almost invisible. "Zhao Changsheng, use your Thunder to flush it out."
Zhao Changsheng had just released the first thunderbolt; suddenly, his figure vanished, then reappeared at the top of the wall.
The thunderclouds in the sky hadn’t dispersed yet, heavy clouds loomed, and two exceptionally thick bolts of thunder struck straight down into the deep water.
This time, the force was even more ruthless than the last, causing bubbles to surface on the river.
The temperature of the water surface suddenly increased.
The monster lurking in the depths slowly crawled up.
The massive clump of water plants hit the surface, and its roots directly pierced into the wall, emerging from the backside. A superpower user who couldn’t dodge in time was impaled through the waist.
Li He, who was helping with the rescue at the back, saw this scene and immediately shouted, "Go save him, quick! Otherwise, it’ll be too late!"
Jianxiong nodded and said calmly, "You stay here and focus on treating the injured. I’ll bring him back."
After speaking, he walked out of the makeshift shelter, took off his coat, and his body rapidly expanded, turning into silver skin with bulging muscles. Water droplets struck him, unleashing a wild and arrogant charm.
Li He saw his complete form for the first time and was surprised.
Jianxiong ran over and with a Bone Spur in his hand, he grabbed the root that was trying to retract and smash the superpower user against the wall.
His Bone Spur pierced through the entire root system, caught the man whose abdomen had been pierced as he fell through the air, and also pulled out that root system.
The superpower user’s internal organs were almost falling out.
Su Mo hurried over to help, seeing that the person’s pupils had already dilated. She poured a bottle of Biluochun Tea on the wound, "Quick, take him over there!"
The two of them protected the injured man into the shelter. Su Mo, without hesitating, took out dozens of bottles of Biluochun Tea, placed them on the table, and said, "I can’t eliminate the virus, but I can still treat the external injuries. Take care of the external application."
Those words were addressed to Li He.
"Alright, I understand." Li He, although not sure what that tea-like substance was, trusted these people.
Su Mo turned and walked out to continue helping, and Jianxiong, seeing the nurses and doctors all busy, also stooped down and followed them to help.
In front of Lu Chen, there was a nearly ten-meter-high clump of water plants, sprawling before him like a giant green screen.
Beneath Lu Chen’s feet, the water flow was frozen, and Cold Ice spread out, advancing towards the green water plants.
The speed at which the ice spread was shocking to everyone; the Cold Ice emitted chills, freezing the raindrops that landed on it within seconds.
The ice surface, full of a murderous intent, climbed up the water plants, eventually freezing the entire clump solid.
The man stood straight, his phoenix eyes slightly squinted. As the frozen water plants, which seemed like they were on pause, began to show cracks, the sounds of cracking resonated under the rain.
In the eyes of countless people, the giant water weeds shattered into innumerable small pieces that thunderously collapsed, breaking the congealed ice and plunging into the dark waters below.
A difficult battle had come to a temporary halt.
This had drained all of Lu Chen’s energy, and after he drank the Jasmine, his complexion improved significantly as he leaped down from the top of the wall.
Everyone’s look towards Lu Chen had somewhat changed.
His mastery of his superpower was truly too strong.
Ignoring everyone’s gaze, the man only walked over to Su Mo, took off his coat, and draped it over Su Mo’s head, wiping the rainwater off her face gently and softly, "It’s over."
Su Mo also stretched out her hand to wipe away the incessant rainwater on his face, "You’ve worked hard."
Rong Bai retracted his superpower and came over gasping for breath, "Thanks, I’ll take care of the aftermath."
By Li Qian’s side, Zhao Changsheng also retracted her superpower. Her superpower consumption wasn’t significant, and she even had an umbrella over her head at the moment.
"Let’s go change clothes."
"I’ll first go check on my Baby Mo," Zhao Changsheng said, preparing to head towards the medical tent, but Li Qian suddenly grabbed her hand and decisively led her in a different direction without a word.
Su Mo entered the tent, which still had seven or eight superpower users injured, the most severe one being pierced through the abdomen, looking extremely grave.
However, Su Mo had already treated him with Biluochun Tea earlier, which left him still hanging on by a breath.
It was also her first time seeing Li He treat such a severe wound; his intestines were almost falling out, and Li He very roughly stuffed them back in with his hands while a dazzling sphere of light suddenly appeared, enveloping the injured man’s stomach.
Under the glimmering light, the side of his face even bore a slight resemblance to an exorcist priest.
Jianxiong, having returned to his normal stature, entered and immediately witnessed this scene. His gaze wavered, and he stood there, motionless.
After Li He had retracted his superpower and Su Mo had stepped closer to look, she found that the wound was completely healed without any signs of mutation.
The next second, the near-death superpower user opened his eyes, his throat moving, and then violently spit out a large pool of black blood.
Li He sighed with relief, "Okay, it’s all clean now."
"You’re very skilled," Su Mo sincerely praised.
Li He smiled, "Well, it’s my duty, isn’t it? Since I have acquired this superpower, saving people is my duty."
Su Mo nodded, "Right."
Jianxiong noticed that they were both still drenched and said, "Big sis, you both should hurry up and leave; you’re all wet. I’ll keep an eye on things here; nothing will go wrong."
Su Mo nodded, took an umbrella, and returned to the hotel with Lu Chen.
Although the hotel now had water, the hot water system was still not working. Su Mo boiled a pot of water and stood in the bathroom to shower, when suddenly she noticed a trail of deep red blood flowing from under her feet.
Her period had started...
Su Mo sighed, hurriedly finished up, padded herself, changed her clothes, and then also boiled a pot of water for Lu Chen before she curled up under the blankets.
The combination of getting drenched and the extensive physical exertion meant, unsurprisingly, that her stomach quickly started to react.
When Lu Chen came out of the bathroom and saw her curled up motionlessly under the blankets, he walked over and, after seeing her somewhat pale face, immediately crouched beside her and placed his hand on her forehead, worriedly asking, "What’s wrong?"
