Mumu, her heart pounding like a drum, placed Hongyue gently on the ground. She knew she couldn't carry her while fighting; she needed both paws free to defend them. A wave of despair washed over her, but she quickly pushed it down. She couldn't afford to lose hope, not now.
"Get lost!" she shrieked, her voice echoing through the desolate landscape. Purple light surged from her body, the moon jade on her forehead glowing with an intense luminescence. She unleashed a barrage of moon energy blasts, striking the decayed beasts with surprising force.
The beasts roared in fury, their eyes burning with a predatory hunger. They lunged at Mumu, their claws tearing at her defenses, their jaws snapping with terrifying force.
Mumu dodged and weaved, her movements agile despite her small size. She countered with swift kicks and punches, her attacks imbued with the power of the moon, leaving glowing marks on the beasts' corrupted flesh.
