Chapter 30: Tentacles
And the strength of the dozen or so pioneer crew members who followed Brad was not weak, and they were not afraid of the threat of this strange humanoid at all, and then powerful arcane energy emerged from the blades they held in their hands, and then each of them swung their weapons to directly scatter the floating humanoids.
At this moment, sticky and disgusting tentacles came from the dark place, and the number of tentacles was very large, dense like flying arrows.
In the face of so many tentacles, among the dozen or so crew members, several people immediately stopped rushing forward to resist the oncoming tentacles.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
The tentacles were so hard that they seemed to be made of a combination of steel and stone, colliding with the axes and swords, bursting with sparks and crackling steel.
Brad and several crew members still did not stop rushing forward, in the face of the oncoming dense tentacles, these crew members roared angrily, the powerful arcane energy of the weapon formed a shield completely composed of it around the body, although this layer of armor looks weak, but the defense is very strong, those tentacles hit their shield, can only make the shield tremble slightly, can not break through the defense of this layer of passport at all.
"Brothers, protect Captain Manson and kill me!"
Just as the few members of the crew who were not weak were about to rush into the chaotic tentacles, a low roar came from the dark clouds in the distance, and with the words, a large number of dense tentacles suddenly appeared, rushing quickly in the direction of Brad and the crew.
"It's a faceling! an outpost of Sky City's Lang Tower, these guys have no emotion, everyone is ready to defend-"
I don't know who shouted that.
As soon as they heard the words Faceless Shape, the faces of all the crew members changed drastically.
"Oh my God...... It's actually a faceless monster...... Did we fly so far?"
"It's over, how did you meet the Faceless Shape...... Aren't they only around the Langer Tower?!"
According to the history of Gliese, when the Faceless Shapes were first discovered, they often roamed the territory of Sky City in Langerta, and at that time, the Faceless Shapes were a nightmare existence for all caravans traveling between Sky City and the ground, and there were countless merchants and escort warriors who died at their hands, and the Faceless Shapes also attacked some high-altitude cities from time to time. The village, where two alpine villages were attacked by wandering faceless monsters, did not fall completely, but also caused a lot of casualties to the village, as if it were a massacre.
At that time, the Faceless Monster set off a bloody storm, so that the caravan did not even dare to go to some high-altitude places, and brought very large economic losses to Sky City Langer Tower.
For this matter, the city of Langerta once made a big move, repeatedly sending troops to send people to encircle and suppress the faceless monster's air lair, but unfortunately the result after that was beyond everyone's expectations, each encirclement and suppression ended in failure, and the casualties were very heavy.
While no one could see with their own eyes what happened to the Siege Corps after they drove into the Faceless Monster's air lair, anyone with a little brain could guess what had happened from the corpses of the fallen soldiers.
This result was unacceptable to both the Sky City and the caravans, and since then, the terrifying image of the Faceless has risen to a peak, and in the minds of some pioneers, the wandering Faceless Shape has become the embodiment of death.
Captain Manson insisted on being the queen, so he took a magic crystal bow from another crew member, pulled the bow and loaded the arrow, and aimed at the place where a large number of tentacles appeared in the distance, waiting for the main body of the tentacles to enter the range of the bow and arrows.
Stella stood on the side of a group of crew members who began to retreat, looking at the vague creatures called faceless monsters in the distant night, the expression on his face became nervous, although the faceless monsters were still far away from Stella's cabin, but with his intuition, he immediately judged that the number of the other party was at least dozens, and each of them had dozens of tentacles with high defensive power, so in terms of number alone, it was not much less than the crew in the airship he was in, and the few crew members who rushed up with tentacles before had been restrained by the floating faceless shapes with tentacles。
"The others retreat, go back to the cabin, and prepare for the Crystal Bullet Attack!" Brad shouted after raising his hand and firing a burst of crossbows with his crossbow.
At this time, the Faceless Shapes had already entered the range of Manson's Crystal Bow, and he immediately released the arrow string in his hand, and suddenly, the purple arrows shot towards the Faceless Shapes rushing forward with a piercing sound of breaking through the air.
Although the Faceless Monster's defense is not low, most of its attacks are not necessarily powerful, and will only bind and entangle. After just three arrows, three faceless monsters could not stand the energy of the crystal and let go of the tentacles that bound the crew, becoming agitated.
Three tentacles rushed silently from the backs of a group of faceless monsters at great speed, directly hitting the chests of the three crew members armed with magic crystal bows, and a hole the size of an arm immediately appeared in the chests of the three crew members who were hit, and their eyes were open in panic, and then they immediately fell.
The frequency of the tentacles was very fast, and each time it was in a different direction, and in a short period of time, five more crew members died under the tentacles of the strange creature.
Looking at the wounds on the chests of the crew members, Stella immediately shouted: "Everyone be careful, avoid it, don't be hit by the tentacles." ”
Before he could finish speaking, three more tentacles burst out of the night sky, one of which happened to be Stella Avner, who was shouting to warn everyone.
With Stella's strength, he was obviously not afraid of these strange things, but he saw that his face sank, and the molten inferno hammer in his right hand flickered in an instant, and with the flash of light, the molten inferno hammer in Stella's right hand had already swung upwards and hit the attacking tentacles.
"Poof!"
The attacking tentacles seemed to be made entirely of steel, and when they collided with the molten hellhammer in Stella's hand, there was a crisp and loud grinding sound, and then the tentacles turned red, then disintegrated, and dissipated silently into the air.
Stella's body only shook slightly due to the recoil, his face was still steady, and he said in a deep voice: "Everyone stand back, I will use flames to purify this group of faceless monsters with evil intentions......"
"S, Stella...... What are you talking about, do you want to launch a fire attack at an altitude of 10,000 meters? The Gold Digger is not fireproof!"
