Cthulhu rose higher, and as more of its shape came out, water flowed from its huge body. The creature's wings started to beat, not to fly but to make wind.
The hurricane-force winds picked up the polluted ocean water and threw it toward Tidebreak Port.
Five hundred meters high, a wave of pure corrupted tsunami raced toward the coastal city, where thousands of people had fled from the earlier megalodon attack and were still safe behind Zephyra's barrier.
Nerissa yelled, "NO!" and then started casting right away. "OCEANIC AUTHORITY: TIDAL NEGATION!"
She put all of her power into the spell, trying to stop the corrupted tsunami before it hit land. Nerissa's magic fought against Cthulhu's casual destruction, and the wave slowed down, then stopped, and then started to go back the other way.
But she couldn't keep it up by herself. Even an empress who was eight hundred years old couldn't handle all the corrupted water.
