Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 187: Saving a Damsel in Distress
Chapter 187: Chapter 187: Saving a Damsel in Distress
Chu Miao noticed her actions and appreciated this girl even more. Once Chichi started using her superpower, she had to concentrate on controlling it and couldn’t be distracted.
She still wasn’t proficient in its use and now was an opportunity to practice without the fear of harming others by mistake.
While she was concentrating on making the power reach the closest fish to her, another fish moved fast towards her in an attempt to attack.
It sprayed a water column towards her and as a human, her instincts felt the danger. Her first reaction was to dodge and as a result, she broke her concentration and the power that was about to reach the fish disappeared.
Chichi immediately felt disappointed, but before she could wallow in self-pity, she saw a gleam flash in front of her and strike the water column heading her way.
She didn’t even get a good look or understand what had happened, but the water column was broken and only a few drops splashed on her.
She didn’t even know whether it was from the rain that was still persisting or the broken water column.
Turning around to look at where the gleam came from, she saw Chu Hao with a sword still pointed in the direction where the water column had been. It was obvious that what had happened was his doing.
However, she couldn’t understand how he had managed to save her when he was on the other end of the boat.
Nevertheless, now was not the time to get emotional out of gratitude, she gave him a simple thanks and turned around to look at the fish she had been about to attack before she broke concentration.
It had moved a little closer to her. Obviously, it had the instinct of a hunter and had probably determined that she was weak and easy prey. Therefore, it was moving forward discreetly like a hunter waiting for an opportunity to attack her.
"Don’t worry about other things, just concentrate on the task and trust your teammates. We won’t let anything happen to you. So, don’t break your attack because you sense danger. Someone else will take care of that danger." Chu Miao, having witnessed everything from beginning to end, advised Chichi.
It was human instinct to protect themselves when they sense danger, and a situation like Chichi’s was expected. But she knew that her big brother wouldn’t let anything happen to the girl.
She could already tell that he liked her even if he hadn’t realized it himself. So, he would protect her instinctively when danger comes close to her.
What’s more, she would also ensure that nothing happened to any of them. She had already accepted them as teammates. In that case, their safety was also her responsibility.
When they heard what Chu Miao said, all the people on the boats relaxed their vigilance a little and put more effort into fighting the fish.
Chichi tried to concentrate and release the hypnotic poison again towards the fish. Luckily, the fish had also moved a little closer and she didn’t need to expend too much energy to attack it with the poison.
As soon as the hypnotic poison came into contact with the fish, it stopped for a second before moving forward a little faster.
It was no longer as cautious as before. Now it moved as if directed by someone. It looked like the poison really worked.
However, as it was about a meter and a half away from the boat, it jerked and raised its head a little, preparing to attack.
Chu Miao looked at Chichi and found that her face was a little pale and lips lacked the previous red color.
She also looked exhausted. It was obvious that attacking that fish with her superpower had taken a lot out of her and she was somewhat exhausted and couldn’t continue to fight.
Seeing this, she raised her hand and the fish that was about to attack was almost cleaved into two. Without lowering her hand, Chu Miao used her spiritual power to pull the cleaved fish to her side and like before, she took the crystal core inside and like the other fish, it was pure without any impurities.
However, looking at its brain, she noticed an almost invisible black shadow near where the crystal had been. It was clear that this fish, even though a mutant like the first one, was in the process of zombification.
The slight black shadow in the head where the crystal core had been showed that it had been contaminated and couldn’t be eaten.
Therefore, Chu Miao didn’t keep this fish with the others that had been killed and instead pushed it over a hundred meters away using spiritual power.
She pushed it further away from them before she was aware that the blood here would attract more fish or something else. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Even though she could eliminate these creatures very fast with her strength, she didn’t want these people to think that they could be complacent and not worry about their safety because she was there.
If they are taught like that, they will never work hard to improve.
Thus, it was better to keep her level of power hidden and let these people practice further. By pushing the fish so far away from them, with the amount of blood it was shedding, it will cover the scent around where they were.
In this way, those who were fighting could fight a little longer without attracting more enemies. The group only felt luck that they could fight to practice and enhance their abilities.
Even when they were tired and almost collapsing, they didn’t give up or stop. Chu Miao, also wanting to test how resilient they could be, didn’t stop them even when they were so tired they could barely move.
She wanted to see if danger could stimulate their potential further.
Nevertheless, when any of them was facing danger they couldn’t resolve, she would step in and save them.
Like this, she witnessed everyone’s abilities to fight and their reaction to sudden attacks and response.
