Chapter 107 The Collapsed Team
Brad's reaction was the quickest, and he immediately raised his shield in front of Arrow, blocking the sight of the monster who didn't know what it was.
Seeing that the people of the Muppet squad have been suppressed, they are all wrapped around their tentacles. Arrow knew something was wrong, but before he could think about it, the monster was dragging the eight people with heavy steps, slowly walking towards this side.
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦οΌβ
Arrow opened his mouth, but he still couldn't make a sound. Looking back at the guild members and the two soldiers behind him, he saw that they were also speechless.
There is no way, there is no way to command, which means that at this time of the year, we have to fight separately.
And the result of each fight......
Cream, raising his fanged dagger and quickly backing away, looked like he was fully implementing the three principles of risk-taking.
When Coco couldn't make a sound, she couldn't summon the undead soldiers and skeleton dogs even with her magical powers, and she quickly ran towards the top of the abyssal maw when she saw Cream retreating.
Brad stood still, holding his shield unmoving, as if intending to stalemate. The parfait on his shoulder was hesitant, not knowing whether to disperse pollen or continue to dodge.
Whiskey and Polyester maintained their determination as soldiers, and they didn't look at the guild members who were acting around on their own, and rushed forward directly with the weapons in their hands.
In just one second, the mermaid song without anyone to command it immediately turned into a plate of loose sand, and the formation of the entire team was stretched, and it became the worst situation in an instant.
The monster in front of it was slow, but when those eyes saw the whiskey and polyester rushing towards them, one of the empty tentacles instantly shot out and shot towards the whiskey.
As a soldier and warrior, whiskey easily bypassed, raised his sword and slashed down. But the tentacles quickly bypassed the whiskey's attack as if they had a spirit, and instantly came to the front of the whiskey. Those huge eyes were straight into the soldier's eyes!
For a moment, the whisky action stopped.
He stared at the huge eyes in a daze, as if he no longer knew what he was supposed to do, and had forgotten who he was. The whole person relaxed his guard, and even the sword in his right hand fell with it.
As he loses the ability to resist, the monster's other tentacles rush up, wrapping around the whiskey like a puppet squad. All of this happened in a matter of seconds.
Polyester immediately understood something when he saw his teammates being controlled, and seeing that a tentacle's eye was also coming towards his sight, Polyester quickly turned his head.
But when his gaze didn't fall on the demonic beast, the tentacles that were originally wrapped around him suddenly flicked and threw the polyester heavily against the rock wall on the side.
After the impact, the warrior violently spat out a mouthful of blood. But even so, he opened his mouth wide, but he still couldn't make a sound.
Suddenly, the most powerful Muppet squad and two soldiers have been subdued.
After wrapping around the polyester, the monster continued to walk with that heavy step, little by little, towards Arrow and the others.
Cream and Coco, who had fled from behind, turned around, and finally gritted their teeth after seeing that their president had not acted, and ran over again to stand beside Arrow. But as for what to do with this monster now, the two of them kept yelling at Arrow, but they still couldn't make a sound.
Eyeballs, looking this way.
A dozen eyeballs, accompanied by those slowly wriggling tentacles, are getting closer and bigger to the mermaid's song.
What exactly should be a war now? Or run away?
If it is usual, this is not a problem at all.
The best way to encounter unclear monsters is always to scout, record, find weaknesses, and break them.
Adventurers never take risks, let alone should.
So the best strategy now should be to run away immediately. Arrow believed that as long as his president made an attempt to escape, the mermaid song would obey. The original ineffective chain of command will also be re-established at this moment.
But if you run away like this, what will the Muppet team do? What to do with whiskey and polyester?
Nothing was gained, but it also damaged so many soldiers of Count Karp, can the mermaid song continue to be trusted and continue to make money? I'm afraid this will be a big problem.
However, he really doesn't have much time.
The pace was still close, slow, but in the light of the fire, its body was getting closer and closer, and it looked bigger and bigger!
Those eyes...... Those eyes that twinkle in the flames...... There was a strange glow in their pupils, as if they were intent on seeing through the secrets of the souls of all the people here, depriving them of even the last shred of their privacy......
Click-clickββ!
But at this moment, a voice suddenly broke into Arrow's ears!
It was the sound of sharp claws scraping against the rock wall.
After a few moments, a huge figure slammed up the wall from under the spiral walkway. The pair of red glowing organs immediately aimed at the tentacle monster after adjusting their position for a moment!
"Squeakββββ! Squeak squeakββββββ! β
The voice sounded, and the Corpse Eater King, who had jumped into the abyssal giant mouth before, actually climbed up again! It waved its huge claws, and immediately raised its huge claws about two positions away from the tentacle monster, and the target was undoubtedly the Muppet that had just fallen to the bottom!
Clickββ!
Instead of slicing through the muscles, the claws collided with the hard rocks with a screeching sound.
The tentacle beast withdrew its tentacles from the puppet, and it was clear that it was very unhappy with the corpse eater's attempt to snatch its prey. A tentacle immediately stretched out, and the eyeball was aimed at the luminous organ.
However, that wasn't the Corpse Eater King's visual organs.
The Ghoul King had no intention of stopping, and the huge Ghoul King obviously had no fear in the face of this tentacle monster that was significantly smaller than it and much more slender. Its claws were aimed at the puppet again, but when it missed its target again, the ghoul king was clearly enraged. The claw raised for the third time was no longer the tentacle wrapped around the puppet, but swung directly at the tentacle monster itself.
The sluggish tentacle monster clawed on its front, and in an instant, some pitch-black liquid sprayed out of its torn body, landing on the Ghoul King, and also on the Muppet Captain.
The black liquid seemed to be alive in itself, and immediately penetrated through the puppet's pores as soon as it came into contact with his skin. But for the Corpse Eater King, these black liquids don't seem to be able to work very well. After a brief stay on its body, it drips to the ground.
Receiving a frontal attack, the tentacle beast immediately let go of all its tentacles and turned to face the Corpse Eater King head-on. The tentacles that no longer need to control their prey are obviously much more flexible! The corpse eater king's body was quickly entangled in tentacles, and many eyes began to focus on the two luminous organs again.
Such a pause caused the Corpse Eater King to regain the initiative, and with a sweep of its tail vertebrae, its massive body fell backwards, and it fell down the spiral path towards the bottom of the abyssal maw. And because those tentacles were wrapped around its body, this tentacle monster was also rolled down with it, until it entered the endless darkness, and continued to fight in a place that humans did not know at present.
And wait until the tentacle monster falls......
"Wowββ!"
Coco, who had been holding back for a long time, suddenly shouted as if she was liberated.
Arrow looked at Coco, and then at the two invisible beasts that had completely fallen into darkness, and immediately stretched out his hand and waved-
"Help!"
With the conductor, the morale on the faces of the people in the Mermaid Song immediately increased greatly! They quickly ran to the squad, whiskey and polyester, who had collapsed to the ground over there.
After some inspection, Arrow breathed a sigh of relief.
The members of the Muppet Squad are still alive, but they all seem to be stunned, and they can't move with their eyes open. However, polyester woke up faster after being smashed hard, and the tension on his face eased slightly after seeing Brad in front of him.
"Damn it...... What's that? We...... What happened? β
Arrow reached out and patted Whiskey's face, and said with a smile on his face, "I had a nightmare." β
With Brad's support, Polyester stood up slightly, frowned and said, "To this extent, you can still laugh?" β
Arrow: "Why not?" At least now we're alive. And this also proves two other things. Hey, are you able to speak? β
After being slapped twice by Arrow, Whiskey seems to be slowly recovering. He raised his hand to cover his eyes and shook his head as if he had just suffered a great mental disaster.
Polyester: "What's the matter?" β
Arrow: "Number one, we were all speechless just now, obviously because of that monster. I wonder what that monster did to us, maybe it was a kind of silence magic? And this magic should still be range-based. After all, we were speechless before the beast was discovered at the beginning. β
"But after that, we heard the voice of the ghoul king with our own ears, which may mean that the ghoul's voice system does not rely on the vocal cords, but on the friction of internal muscles. This means that this monster's silence magic does not ban all sounds, but only the voices of certain creatures, such as us humans. β
Polyester: "So? What does this mean? β
Arrow smiled, "I haven't thought of it yet, but it would always be beneficial to know a little more about monsters." Ah, whiskey, are you able to speak now? β
