My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome
Chapter 286 - Chapter 286 Chapter 285 Crisis (Two in One)

Chapter 286: Chapter 285 Crisis (Two in One) Chapter 286: Chapter 285 Crisis (Two in One) “Caw.”

Sea Wolves kept leaping out from beneath the water, their silver scales glistening in the moonlight as they lunged forward and backward with their sharp fangs snapping at the Emperor Penguin.

The Emperor Penguin, composed and tranquil, deftly maneuvered through the Sea Wolves, its movements accompanied by the cold blue edge of the blade. Every step it took on the sea’s surface would solidify into ice blocks, supporting its body.

Behind it, bursts of blood bloomed, splattering onto its body and instantly solidifying into blood beads, which slid down its sleek feathers into the seawater.

Whoosh!

A pale blue cross-shaped blade flashed by, and several Sea Wolves stiffened in mid-air. Their bodies slowly parted, splitting neatly into two and crashing into the seawater.

The bodies of the Sea Wolves splashed into the sea like dumplings, the area of seawater stained red with their blood continued to expand.

Bathing in the blood of their kin, the Sea Wolves beneath the surface grew increasingly frenzied.

With eyes red, they frantically broke through the water’s surface.

Under the fierce assault, the Emperor Penguin’s pace slowed; large wounds sporadically appeared on its large body, and the ice feather blades extending from its fin-shaped limbs became increasingly sparse.

“Caw!”

A Sea Wolf found a gap and bit into the Emperor Penguin’s body. As its fangs pierced the skin, a thin layer of ice swiftly formed on the surface of the body, instantly freezing it into an ice block.

This was the Emperor Penguin’s innate ability, Extreme Cold Feather, which immediately froze any Sea Wolf that wounded it or attacked it up close, thus conserving a lot of its energy.

“Emperor Penguin!”

As the number of Sea Wolves increased, Cang Haiyuan’s expression shifted from excitement to worry, his fingers whitening as they gripped the ship’s rail.

In the waves caused by the ongoing battle, the cruise ship they were on was pushed far out, now at least a hundred meters away from the center of the fight.

Even so, some Sea Wolves still targeted the cruise ship, continuously launching bites.

“Ying!”

Qiuqiu firmly grasped a Sea Wolf’s fang with its little paws. In a burst of fire element, the Sea Wolf’s fang instantly carbonized and broke off, then Qiuqiu whipped it away with its tail.

“Ah!”

Before it could catch its breath, another cry of distress came from among the researchers.

The shadow of flames flickered in Qiuqiu’s pupils as it clasped its tiny paws. A burst of firelight erupted, smashing fervently at its target.

“Beibei.”

Mirage Beibei stealthily glanced at Qiuqiu fighting fires everywhere. Just as it considered slacking off, it suddenly felt a wave of heat approaching. Its squishy body instantly tensed up, turning stiffly to face the source.

There, with sparks of fire continuously emerging from the corner of its mouth, Qiuqiu was eyeing it with ill intent. Mirage Beibei shuddered, puffed out its little face, and blew a series of bubbles toward the sea outside.

Several Sea Wolves caught by this instantly lost their fierce expressions, appearing dazed as they fell back into the water.

“Ying!”

Pleased, Qiuqiu tapped on Mirage Beibei’s shell before getting busy again.

Bang!

Accompanied by a collision sound, the front half of the cruise ship slightly lifted, then heavily slammed back down on the water’s surface.

Although Qiuqiu was trying its best to avoid bloodshed, the number of Sea Wolves gathering beside the cruise ship was still rapidly increasing.

The ship continued to rock as it was struck by the Sea Wolves, causing Yang Qi and the other researchers’ faces to grow even paler.

“This won’t do,” Shao Zifeng said as he turned his head from the boiling sea, “Have your Emperor Penguin use the Extreme Cold Ice Domain.”

Cang Haiyuan paused, “How do you know…”

“What are you worried about at a time like this?” Shao Zifeng glared at him, “Use the Extreme Cold Ice Domain to buy us some time, then I’ll have Qiuqiu go and rescue it.”

“But, this is the territorial waters of Xilan Island…”

Cang Haiyuan’s face showed a flickering mix of emotions; using mutant creatures in the territorial waters of another country was one thing if undiscovered, but once found out, it could escalate into an international diplomatic incident.

“There are no buts, listen to me!” Shao Zifeng said with utmost seriousness.

“Fine!” Cang Haiyuan grit his teeth and shouted into the battle ring, “Emperor Penguin, Extreme Cold Ice Domain!”

“Ga!”

Upon hearing the command, the Emperor Penguin halted its movements. The ice beneath its claws undulated with the waves, and a cyclone whipped up around its body, its pupils turning an icy white as if frozen.

Splash!

Mutant sea-wolf heads emerged densely from the sea in all directions. Seeing their enemy cease its attack, they became excited, revealing chillingly sharp teeth as they leaped from the water toward the Emperor Penguin.

As the cyclone expanded, the temperature around rapidly dropped, and fine snow began to drift in the summer night sky. The Ice Crystal Crown on top of the Emperor Penguin’s head sparkled continuously under the moonlight.

Rustle!

Just as the pack of sea wolves rushed at the Emperor Penguin, two cold beams shot from its pupils and the Ice Crystal Crown atop its head unleashed a bone-chilling storm.

The storm, mingled with shards of ice, spread swiftly outward. Centered on the Emperor Penguin, ice crystals rapidly formed and spread outward, freezing the bodies of the sea wolves that had just leaped from the water along with the splashes they created, emitting a fluorescent glow under the moonlight like exquisitely carved ice sculptures.

In a matter of moments, a hundred meters of the sea turned into an icy blue realm, with the waves rolled up and the splashes from falling bodies all captured within the ice crystals.

Crack, crack, crack.

Frozen sea wolves fell from mid-air one after another, shattering upon impact and scattering ice dust into the cold wind.

After using the Extreme Cold Ice Domain, the battered Emperor Penguin simply collapsed on the ice, gasping weakly, clearly reaching its limit.

“Qiuqiu!”

The cruise ship, adorned with sparkling icicles, was frozen on the sea surface, and Shao Zifeng sniffed and shivered a little.

“Ying!”

Qiuqiu leaped off Shao Zifeng’s shoulder, conjuring a pair of small wings on its back as it did so.

Flapping its wings rapidly, Qiuqiu’s body was wrapped in dense fire elements, growing back to its normal size while flying toward the Emperor Penguin.

Whoosh!

A hot current swept through the ice domain, leaving a streak of red in the icy blue world.

In the extreme cold, Cang Haiyuan did not feel very cold; he looked at Shao Zifeng seriously and said, “Thank you.”

Shao Zifeng was taken aback slightly, then shook his head with a smile.

Anyway…

It’s not just me who takes the blame when things go wrong, so why are you thanking me?

Qiuqiu was swift, covering the distance of a hundred meters in an instant. Its golden-red eyes swept over the sea wolves frozen into ice sculptures, extending its rugged claws toward the Emperor Penguin.

On the dock, a man wearing sunglasses slid them down from his nose, watching with some surprise the mutant creature flapping a pair of fiery wings.

Then, as if having realized something, he stretched out a hand in the form of a finger gun, aiming at the Emperor Penguin.

Aiming with one eye closed, he softly made a sound.

“Pop!”

The moment his voice fell, the ice domain on the sea surface suddenly shook, emitting a thunderous muffled sound.

The entire ice domain trembled and instantly shattered, Qiuqiu struggling to flap its wings to halt its momentum, thus not plunging headfirst into the icy waters filled with broken ice.

But the Emperor Penguin was less fortunate; the ice fractured and tilted, causing it to fall instantly into the sea.

Several sea wolves, mixed with shards of ice, rushed eagerly to bite at the Emperor Penguin.

Boom!

Seeing this scene, Qiuqiu expanded its scale armor, dark red magma veins covering its entire body as it emitted restless fire elements from between its scales, hovering in the night sky like wind-blown ribbons.

Bastard!

Trying to snatch a goose from Lord Qiuqiu’s claws!

Rolling waves of heat burst from Qiuqiu’s body, bathing it entirely in flames, and moments later, a pair of massive wings of fire erupted and powerfully flapped.

The flames surrounding Qiuqiu whirled into the air, revealing the gigantic Qiuqiu to everyone’s sight.

“Damn…” Everyone on the dock was stunned, staring blankly at the giant dragon in the distance over the sea.

They suddenly felt somewhat relieved–if they had foolishly chased after it earlier, they might now be in the dragon’s stomach.

Qiuqiu, blocking the sky and moon, spewed flames from its nostrils and fiercely fanned its broad wings toward the sea surface.

Whoosh!

Huge turbulent currents lifted massive waves, the ice-strewn sea surface instantly caved in, and countless pieces of ice melted in the rolling heat, revealing a bewildered Emperor Penguin.

Qiuqiu, feeling smug, spat out a spark and dove headfirst towards the Emperor Penguin.

Seeing the ball of fire getting closer, the Emperor Penguin dived frantically towards the sea, but was still caught in Qiuqiu’s claws.

“Gah!”

In Qiuqiu’s claws, the Emperor Penguin, like a rag doll, was steaming with a lot of water vapor, flailing and wailing desperately.

Shao Zifeng was shocked, slapping his forehead with his hand.

Ah, this…

Damn, the Emperor Penguin’s talent is the Extreme Cold Feather on his body.

This is just ice and fire…

Boom.

Gusts of hot wind dried everyone’s soaked clothes, and the half-dead Emperor Penguin was thrown onto the cruise ship.

By then, the Emperor Penguin’s body looked dehydrated, shrinking in size. It lifted a piece of loose fur with its fin-like limbs, revealing a despairing expression with a hint of sadness in its eyes.

Haiyuan looked mournfully at Qiuqiu, but when Qiuqiu glaring fiercely at him, he hurriedly went to comfort the Emperor Penguin.

Qiuqiu’s dominance made everyone relax.

The temperature was just a bit high…

Yang Qi and others kept wiping their sweat, looking at Qiuqiu in midair with joy on their faces.

Shao Zifeng didn’t mind them. “Qiuqiu, how much longer can you hold on?”

The reason he asked was because the Bone Shaping skill in its Gigantification state was extremely energy-consuming, and they were still far from the Snow Dragon. Shao Zifeng was worried that Qiuqiu might not make it.

In the swirling flames, Qiuqiu’s golden-red vertical pupil looked at Shao Zifeng and nodded at him.

“Alright then, I’ll leave the rest of the journey to you,” Shao Zifeng sighed in relief, hoping to leave this dreadful place soon.

“Woo.”

Qiuqiu let out a low cry, flew to the front of the cruise ship, hooked the railing with the spines on its tail, and dragged the cruise ship towards the Snow Dragon.

At that moment, a gentle sea breeze stirred the calm sea surface, and countless shadows swirled underneath, accelerating.

“Hey, it’s not so hot when the ship starts moving, huh?” Haiyuan gave the Emperor Penguin an energy potion while his long hair fluttered in the wind.

“Yeah, Zifeng junior, what’s the breed of this magical beast? The temperature is way too high,” another person prodded, getting glared at by Yang Qi.

Because of the contract, Shao Zifeng didn’t feel as hot, and he casually chatted with the others.

Qiuqiu, flapping its flaming dragon wings, looked down secretly admiring its reflection in the seawater.

Beautiful!

_

Suddenly, Qiuqiu felt its body sink, a tremendous pulling force coming from behind.

Curious, it turned its head, the golden-red vertical pupil instantly shrinking to a thin line.

Not far behind the cruise ship, a whirlpool was quietly forming.

At this moment, those chatting were still unaware of the approaching danger.

A sudden surge of anxious emotions from Qiuqiu made Shao Zifeng’s heart skip a beat. He slowly turned his head, his face instantly taking on a very ugly expression.

“Darn…”

“Sea Wolf Storm!”

Shao Zifeng’s voice caused everyone to turn around, their faces instantly turning pale.

The whirlpool visibly grew larger, the sea breeze it stirred up no longer cool but despairingly chilling.

“Roar!”

The massive pulling force continually sucked the cruise ship toward the center of the whirlpool; Qiuqiu exerted all its strength but could only move the ship forward very slightly, which was far from keeping up with the spreading speed of the whirlpool.

The cruise ship rocked constantly in the whirlpool, seemingly about to be swallowed at any moment.

…

On the dock, the younger brother put down his binoculars, his face full of admiration toward the man in sunglasses.

“Brother, you foresee events like a god; we really didn’t need to lift a finger.”

The man in sunglasses stared expressionlessly into the distance, his face not showing the slightest hint of pride at the compliment.

Suddenly he turned and said, “Let’s go.”

The others were stunned, “Brother, those people…”

“Too much noise has been made, that guy is about to make a move. If you don’t want to die, hurry up and leave.”

The man in sunglasses walked toward the car without looking back, the other gang members exchanging glances before hastily running to the vehicle.

Bob, supported by his underling, slowly walked to his car, a look of vengeful pleasure appearing on his face as he observed the immense whirlpool in the distance.

“Roar!”

Qiuqiu’s eyes turned blood-red. Despite flapping its wings frantically, it could only watch helplessly as the whirlpool continued to expand.

Its breathing was labored; ever since its second evolution, it hadn’t felt this powerless in a long time, and Qiuqiu, now leaning more toward its dragon nature, felt incredibly frustrated.

The whirlpool’s diameter had nearly reached a kilometer, making even Qiuqiu’s gigantic body seem tiny by comparison.

“Qiuqiu… let… go of the cruise ship,”

Due to the severe tilt of the ship, Shao Zifeng clutched tightly to a fixed seat, his lower body slightly off the ground, like clothes swinging messily in the wind on a clothesline.

Splashing water soaked their clothes, making them look extremely disheveled.

“Are you crazy!” Cang Haiyuan shouted, accidentally swallowing a lot of the spray, which made him roll his eyes in disgust.

Shao Zifeng had indeed not gone mad, but if the standoff continued, Qiuqiu would eventually run out of strength. Instead, in the time they were being pulled toward the center of the whirlpool, Qiuqiu could deal with the lower-tier Sea Wolves.

Even if it couldn’t eliminate them all, as long as it killed some, they might be able to escape.

But now was not the time to explain that to him, as this was a desperate gamble, and no one knew whether they would lose or win.

“Roar.”

Qiuqiu roared angrily, its long tail tightly hooked around the railing, refusing to relax in the slightest.

“Qiuqiu.”
