Four Hundred and Fifty Million in Earnings
Tang Miao's Lightning Bolt was a little too fast. The earth-shattering purple lightning instantly exploded on the dragon's body. The airflow directly pierced through the white clouds and the blue ocean. Even more terrifying was the violent lightning that swept out. Its destructive power evaporated tens of thousands of tons of seawater, shattered the Reef Cave, and even turned the dragon scales and skin on the Black Sea Pseudo Dragon into nothingness, exposing it with bloodstains!
Once the skin and scales of the Vile Maggot monstrous dragon are torn open, it can be seen that its body is not entirely filled with dragon meat, but rather with the white ant maggots that had previously devoured the Black Sea Pseudo Dragon. These ant maggots are feeding back to the monstrous monstrous dragon, thus forming the complete shell of the Vile Maggot monstrous dragon!
One by one, maggots fell from the spot where the Vile Maggot pseudo-dragon had been injured by the lightning explosion. The Vile Maggot pseudo-dragon, which had been shining with dark light and looked majestic just moments before, instantly turned into a blood-soaked, charred mess!
"Awooooo!!!"
This attack truly crippled it; the Vile Maggot pseudo-dragon, blasted like this, was somewhat panicked and had no intention of continuing the fight.
It could sense that even if it grew larger, it would still be nothing more than a slightly larger ant in front of these two people...
Its previous arrogance vanished instantly... If heaven could give it another chance, it would surely be hiding at the bottom of the sea...
Just as it tried to run away, it discovered that at the same time the lightning element dissipated, a bone-chilling surge of Ice Element energy suddenly attacked it.
Suddenly, the arrow whistled through the air, whipping up a terrifying Blizzard Storm that followed the tail of the icy arrow.
The ice crystal arrow skimmed across the seawater, parting the ocean, and the cut seawater froze into ice crystals within two seconds!
The Vile Maggot spurious dragon had now completely transformed into a tailless worm that had lost its protective shell, and it fled in disarray.
The arrow caught up and pierced straight through the back of the Vile Maggot false dragon's robust body!
The Vile Maggot pseudo-dragon stiffened slightly, and then the mountain of flesh was reduced to countless ice crystal fragments the instant the arrow passed through it.
"Smack!"
Like a giant ice sculpture shattered, the ice crystal arrows continued their flight, turning everything in their path into ice crystals. No place was spared—sea, reefs, none were spared. The already frozen sea was instantly transformed into a vast expanse of glaciers. The Black Sea Pseudo Dragon was reduced to chunks of metal, piling up in a valley...
There was no sign of life left, and it no longer resembled a ferocious pseudo-dragon!
In the distance, Bobby's jaw was practically slamming into the ice!
The only adjective he could think of to describe these two people was "monsters." He really didn't know what else to say.
After Tang Miao finished his attack, he went over to collect the vaccine sample. As for Mu Ningxue, she was panting heavily after that arrow...
After retrieving the complete vaccine, the ice, no longer supported by magic, slowly melted into the seawater. Fortunately, the ship had been well protected, so the four of them didn't need to waste their energy returning.
Bobby was navigating the speedboat across the ocean, in relatively good spirits; at least he had done something beneficial for society. Moreover, Tang Miao had promised to give him ten million after the bounty was settled!
Tang Miao was short of money, but Bobby was a great help... and besides, he was in a tragic situation, so he naturally couldn't think of taking it all for himself.
On the way, Bobby asked, "There shouldn't be any more people dying from the Drowning Curse anymore, right?"
Hearing this, Ling Ling shook her head, then said seriously, "All living things undergo an evolutionary process. Even if we obtain a vaccine against these Vile Maggot, temporarily preventing humans from being captured by these invisible parasitic Vile Maggot, these Vile Maggot parasitic species still exist throughout the ocean. They haven't been completely eradicated; they can choose not to parasitize humans, but instead parasitize Demon Beast..."
How many powerful Demon Beast, like that Black Sea Pseudo Dragon, are transformed from Vile Maggot? It's impossible to count or ascertain them all. Perhaps one day in the future, another, even more terrifying parasitic little devil will emerge from the Vile Maggot population, capable of bypassing the protection of the vaccine we found this time."
Whether it's Demon Beast or humans, they are constantly getting stronger and evolving.
Demon Beast spur humanity to unite and grow stronger, while humanity also continuously kills Demon Beast and suppresses their numbers. In other words, in this world, neither humans nor Demon Beast can be exterminated by their natural enemies. What truly becomes extinct are those groups and races that stagnate and can no longer adapt to this environment, ultimately becoming a page in history.
Perhaps many years ago, humans were nothing more than livestock in the eyes of powerful Demon Beast, to be slaughtered and devoured at will. It was the continuation of the race that gave rise to magic, technology, cities, and mages, giving humans the power to contend with Demon Beast. But if humans were to stop there, one day they would be completely replaced by terrifying little devils like Vile Maggot, or perhaps exterminated by powerful Demon Race!
The Vile Maggot race can never be completely eradicated, and the vaccine that Ling Ling obtained can probably only keep people free from this Drowning Curse for a few years.
However, these were no longer matters of concern to Tang Miao.
After all, he was only able to complete this because the reward was quite tempting.
After returning, Tang Miao and Mu Ningxue went back to the National Team. As for the vaccine, they naturally left it to Ling Ling. Ling Ling didn't care about the reward at all. She didn't really need the money right now.
Not long after, Tang Miao received a message from the Hunter's Alliance informing him that his hunter title had been upgraded again, granting him more privileges and information from the Hunter's Alliance.
At the same time, he saw headlines in some news media describing the Drowning Curse vaccine.
"The Qingtian Hunter Agency have solved the global plague curse and have been awarded a huge bounty!"
Ling Ling attributed her name to the Qingtian Hunter Agency and kept a low profile, mainly because she was worried that revealing her age would cause even more trouble.
Come to think of it, those old Hunter Master in their fifties and sixties, with their white hair, are probably still analyzing the Drowning Curse incident, only to find that the Drowning Curse was resolved by a teenage girl and a young man in his twenties. Where would they put their old faces then?
The Qingtian Hunter Agency China, so attributing such a major event to Qingtian Hunter Agency is not a big problem.
When the reward was received, the prize money had reached nearly 450 million!
With his existing funds, Tang Miao is now a man worth nearly 600 million. He's getting closer and closer to purchasing a Wind Element Soul Seed with an attached domain.
