”Are...are you alright?” asked Jiang Shaoxu worriedly.

”I'm fine... I won't die, do you have any water?” asked Mo Fan.

Jiang Shaoxu handed him a water pouch. Mo Fan quickly gulped it down.

His lips felt extremely dry. He finally looked better after drinking the water.

”Is there more?” asked Mo Fan.

”Mm, you're heavily dehydrated. What happened?” asked Jiang Shaoxu.

”Nothing serious, just being too careless and I let the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast hit me. Commander-level creatures are indeed tough to deal with,” said Mo Fan, after he was feeling better.

”Lie down and take some rest. Blood serums aren't really effective for wounds inflicted by the sea monsters,” said Jiang Shaoxu.

”Give me more water.”

”How are you so dehydrated?”

Jiang Shaoxu let out a relieved sigh after seeing Mo Fan's condition improving.

She took the first-aid kit and helped Mo Fan treat his wounds to prevent them from worsening. She then gave Mo Fan an injection, some kind of rapid energy boost for Magicians, just so he could recover faster.

On the other hand, Nan Rongni's condition was finally improving too. The antidote was working like a charm. The poison in her body gradually disappeared.

Nan Rongni regained consciousness, but she looked extremely weak.

However, the tide was still around, and the battle in the East Maritime Fortress was still going on. It was likely that the sea monsters would show up again.

There was nothing Mo Fan and Nan Rongni could do due to their injuries. Luckily, the density of sea monsters in the area had reduced. Otherwise, the team would have had a hard time holding the creatures off.

”The tide is falling!” Jiang Yu exclaimed excitedly.

Mo Fan leapt up in surprise, too. He quickly rose to his feet and poked his head over the edge of the building.

It did seem like the water was lower. The parts of the building that were previously underwater were now exposed. The water had dropped around three meters.

The sea monsters' area of activity would shrink gradually, meaning that the battle would soon come to an end.

”Who would have thought, the East Maritime Fortress was such a thrilling place,” Mo Fan murmured as he laid back down.

Nan Rongni was lying beside him. She looked dull, as if she had just escaped death.

”You should be happy that you're still alive. Why do you look so down?” asked Mo Fan with a confused face.
