Chapter 1817 - Boomerang on the Sea (2/2)

Zhao Manyan did not dare to stay any longer after he was injured. He immediately poured his energy into his wings and left the area.

He turned around to take a quick look and happened to see the enormous boomerang creature falling back to the water, leaving the same huge hole in it.

However, he still could not see its true appearance. He headed back to the land with great shock and many injuries.

——

Zhao Manyan glided down when the land was within view. He failed to stabilize himself and fell to the ground in front of Mo Fan and the others, ending up covered in dirt and grass.

“Weren’t you going to scout the place? Why do you look like you have just been through a fight of life and death?” Mo Fan stared at Zhao Manyan’s miserable appearance in shock.

“How the f**k would I know? Thousands of weird things suddenly flew out from the ocean when I was getting closer to Dawn Island. They took me by surprise, too,” Zhao Manyan swore.

His injuries were not too serious. They did not endanger his life, but he was extremely displeased by the outcome.

Most importantly, he did not manage to see what the creatures were, because they kept spinning!

“Lingling, do you know what they are?” Zhao Manyan asked.

Lingling rolled her eyes and answered, “Who could possibly tell what the creatures are from your description?”

“It sounds like Dawn Island isn’t something to be messed with, either. Zhao Manyan ended up like this before reaching the island,” Jiang Shaoxu murmured.

“We’ll wait until Mu Bai gets here tomorrow and decide how we’re going to deal with those creatures,” Mo Fan said.

Mo Fan was at his worst when it came to fighting in the water. He would not stand a chance against the strange creatures that Zhao Manyan had described unless he could reach the land. Even a defensive Mage like Zhao Manyan had been injured.

Mu Bai’s Primary Element was Ice. The Ice and Water Elements were quite similar, so he might have a plan to deal with the creatures.

The group went back to town to get some rest. Zhao Manyan suddenly stopped everyone as they were going back to their rooms.

Mo Fan turned around and saw Zhao Manyan holding onto the wall feebly. Even the color of his skin had changed slightly.

“Old Zhao?” Mo Fan quickly inspected Zhao Manyan’s wound. He noticed the cut on Zhao Manyan’s arm had turned blueish. It did not fester, but it seemed like it was frozen.

“I…I think I’m poisoned,” Zhao Manyan gasped.

“Those creatures are poisonous?” Jiang Shaoxu swore.

They had inspected Zhao Manyan’s wound previously. The wound showed no sign of festering, so they had only treated it with simple medicine. To their surprise, the wound left a frozen mark behind after it healed. Zhao Manyan was already panting heavily from just walking!

“It’s an uncommon kind of poison. Let’s hope it doesn’t get any worse,” Lingling said.

Uncommon poisons were tricky to deal with, since normal antidotes were useless against them. Even a Healer would be clueless about how to deal with them.
