“Old Zhang, can she still be saved?”

Yu Xian looked at the young girl with her eyes tightly closed and immediately asked Zhang Shou.

This time, Zhang Shou didn't dare to make a guarantee. He gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t know. I’ll try my best.”

After speaking, he summoned Healing Touch to wrap the young girl. When Healing Touch touched the young girl, it made a sizzling sound, and a large amount of white smoke billowed from Healing Touch.

“Hiss, what terrifying poison. Xian Yu, you’d better stay away. All that smoke is poisonous.” Zhang Shou gasped, and quickly said to Yu Xian.

Yu Xian nodded and stepped back, then protected himself with a bubble.

In the past, when Zhang Shou used Healing Touch, even terminal illnesses could be easily cured. This was his First time seeing his skill produce such an exaggerated effect, which indicated that the poison on the young girl was extremely, extremely terrifying.

Finally, Healing Touch melted away in a short moment, like an ice cube placed on a red-hot iron plate.

Seeing this, Zhang Shou immediately gritted his teeth and continued to use Healing Touch. Another tentacle formed. He continuously summoned Healing Touch without stopping, and in a blink of an eye, the young girl was completely wrapped in tentacles, which looked a bit evil from the picture.

Sizzle.

Smoke billowed from the young girl’s entire body as the toxins resisted Healing Touch.

Whenever a Healing Touch was dissolved, Zhang Shou immediately activated his skill to replace it with another tentacle. He himself rapidly aged, becoming a middle-aged man in a blink of an eye.

“This poison is too terrifying.”

He looked at the gradually fading green poison on the young girl and said to Yu Xian.

Yu Xian nodded in agreement. If this poison landed on him, he estimated that his entire body would instantly dissolve into liquid.

But this also showed that the poisoned young girl was very strong. Such terrifying poison actually didn't kill her, making it hard to imagine how formidable her physical body was.

After half a minute, the young girl slowly opened her eyes. She immediately frowned when she saw the tentacles on her body.

“Don't be nervous. We are members of the Evil Extermination Squad. We are detoxifying you.” Yu Xian had been watching the young girl, and immediately spoke when he saw her wake up.

Gong Qian endured the uncomfortable feeling and asked, “How long have I been unconscious?”

“About five minutes.” Yu Xian replied.

Gong Qian immediately wanted to get up. Zhang Shou said, “The poison on your body hasn’t been completely removed yet. Bear with it a little longer.”

“No, that monster is too strong. The others can’t stop it. I must go back quickly.” Gong Qian gritted her teeth and said firmly.

She was too clear that a creature she couldn't punch through, the remaining three captains definitely wouldn't be able to defeat.

“That... General Zhao Yi?” Zhang Shou couldn't help but ask.

Gong Qian sat up and replied, “General Zhao Yi was directly teleported here by a teleportation array. He himself needs to guard a deep abyss rift, so he was teleported back after launching the attack.”

“Deep abyss rift? Can't he be teleported over again now?” Zhang Shou activated his skill again, looking even older.

Gong Qian shook her head helplessly and said, “The space near the deep abyss rift is very chaotic. Using one teleportation takes more than a day just for preparation. Otherwise, why do you think we had to delay until noon to start the operation? Don’t we want to solve the problem earlier?”

“Are there any other Dragon-level who can provide support?” Yu Xian asked thoughtfully.

Gong Qian gave Yu Xian a glare and retorted, “Dragon-level are not cabbages. The Minister needs to guard Yanjing, other generals need to guard deep abyss rifts, and there are also those who deter foreign forces at the border. Even if there is support... the fastest would probably be tomorrow noon.”

“Are there any Dragon-level masters among the common people?” Yu Xian pressed on.

Gong Qian fell silent. Yu Xian quickly said, “Now is not the time to hesitate. If there are Dragon-level masters among the common people, then quickly call for reinforcements. This place is still too close to Silver City. If anything goes wrong, the consequences will be too severe.”

“Okay, I’ll try to apply.”

Gong Qian thought of the consequences of Silver City falling, and immediately took out her phone, but then her phone was dissolved by the poison contained in her palm.

Both she and Yu Xian fell silent. Zhang Shou saw this scene and couldn't help but ask, “With such terrifying poison, why are your clothes fine?”

“Pervert, do you really want to see my clothes dissolve?” Gong Qian's face flushed, and she glared at Zhang Shou, asking.

Zhang Shou looked old, but he was still a clear-minded high school student. He looked embarrassed and quickly explained, “I, I, I... I was just curious.”

“My clothes are made of Dragon-level material, how could they dissolve so easily?” Gong Qian explained impatiently.

She had immense strength, and ordinary clothes couldn't withstand her abuse. Any slight movement would turn ordinary clothes into rags. So, Qilin Headquarters spent a lot of resources to specially make her current clothes.

This set of clothes could not only perfectly withstand her immense strength without damage when she moved, but also had multiple resistances. How could mere poison dissolve such a treasure?

“Then what... do we do now?” Yu Xian looked at Gong Qian, still more concerned about the issue of getting support.

Gong Qian pressed her palm onto a tentacle and said, “Don’t worry, because I break things easily, I have hundreds of phones. As soon as my hand is free of poison, I can immediately call for support.”

She pressed her palm tightly against the tentacle, and sizzling sounds continuously rang out.

“Doesn’t it hurt?” Zhang Shou asked curiously.

Gong Qian calmly said, “This poison is indeed strange, even I find it hard to be immune to it, but it doesn’t hurt, it just makes my movements a bit difficult.”

“It’s probably just you who doesn’t feel pain.” Yu Xian grumbled.

Demos's poison could instantly dissolve a phone. How could an infected person not feel pain? Most people would probably melt into liquid in agony upon contact.

Finally, with Gong Qian's active cooperation, the poison on her palm was cleared. After confirming that there was no residual poison on her palm, she quickly took out her phone and turned it on.

After a series of calls, her face flushed, and she cursed, “Bastard, they go to the abyss at the worst possible time! Dammit!”

“What do you mean?” Yu Xian asked.

Gong Qian said angrily, “Dragon-level are already the top-tier powerhouses. Even the official side can’t easily offend them. Among all non-official Dragon-level powerhouses, only the Great Sage Equal to Heaven is the easiest to talk to. As long as you give him enough benefits, you can invite him for help, but... he went to the abyss.”

“What is the abyss?” Zhang Shou had been curious about this and quickly asked.

Gong Qian said irritably, “The abyss is just the abyss. No one knows how the abyss appeared, but it’s certain that all forbidden fruit come from the abyss. Because the space near the deep abyss rift is very chaotic, once forbidden fruit appear near the deep abyss rift, they will be randomly teleported to various corners of the world.”

“Then why did the Great Sage Equal to Heaven go to the abyss?” Yu Xian asked.

Gong Qian replied, “Of course, to find treasures. Most materials above Dragon-level come from the abyss. When you reach Eagle Rank, you will be eligible to apply to Qilin Headquarters to go to the abyss.”

“Then what do we do now?” Zhang Shou asked.

Gong Qian and Yu Xian both fell silent. At least, the three of them could only be in a pickle...
