Chapter Twenty-Six: Tentacles

On top of the tree net, Pannis stood silently with his hands on his chest and his eyes closed, his body motionless, allowing the breeze from the top of the tree to ruffle his broken golden hair. As the prey was cornered, as the hunters gradually gathered, Pannis's face became more and more serious, and the energy fluctuations around his body became more and more flat.

"Everyone, get ready. Pannis closed his eyes, intensifying his hearing and energy perception by cutting off his vision, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, and asked in a low voice, "I'm afraid I'm in trouble this time, can you fight side by side with me?"

"Of course. But the maidens laughed, and seemed to be smiling happily, and Catherine tapped the scales in front of her with her right hand, and responded with the battle etiquette of a knight, and said with a smile: "I have been ready for a long time, ready to fight with you at any time, whether the enemy is strong or weak, whether facing life or death." ”

"Thank you. The expression on Pannis's face changed, and finally froze into a complicated smile, and nodded: "In that case, let's let us fight side by side for the first time in the true sense." ”

Indeed, in the past two years of common adventure, Pannis has never fought with the girls in the real sense, of course, by all. Neither the reservation in Angus Village nor the containment of deep-sea whale crabs on an ocean-going island is a concerted operation in the true sense of the word. More often than not, like parents who teach their children to walk, Pannis stands behind the girls, ignoring them whether they shake or fall, leaving them bruised and bleeding, and only silently helping them eliminate the danger when they are really in danger. It is precisely because of this cooperation of Pannisy that the girls can achieve such an achievement today. Just like he said at the entrance of the Weeping Cave when he first joined the adventure group, for adventurers, if they don't let themselves struggle to survive in the face of death, and don't let them go through the test of death, even if they become stronger, they are actually just a superficial waste, maybe his words at that time were just self-deprecation. But it is also the lessons he summed up after experiencing trauma, using these lessons as fertilizer and fertilization, and the dangerous life of adventurers as the soil to cultivate, the girls grow up quickly and steadily. Eventually, he will grow into a partner who can work with him in a real way. Although the difference in strength is one of the most critical levels, it is not enough to accompany him to face the intelligent creatures of the demigod level, but it is enough to face the demigod-level demonic beasts.

The hunt under the tree net is going on at the most critical moment, whether it is an elf or a lizardman. Hunters don't always have a fixed identity when hunting, and in dense jungles and muddy swamps, every creature can be both hunter and prey, even the most powerful and experienced hunters. When every predator is hunting, he may be regarded as prey by another more powerful predator, the contest between hunting and being hunted, the choice between survival and death, this is the cruelty of nature, and the charm of hunting.

Just when the shieldman used the giant shield to force off a counterattack from the monsters, and the spearman threw the spear in his hand for the second time, causing a large amount of damage to the prey. Changes are quietly born, whether it is a predator or a predator, they all become prey in an instant, the prey of super-large magical beasts. Around the hunting team that tightly surrounded the prey, suddenly mud splashed, and hundreds of giant tentacles rushed up from the mire, some of the tentacles appeared outside the hunting team, forming a new tentacle encirclement, and some appeared in the ranks of the hunting team, disrupting the formation of the hunters. Even some of them appeared in the group of demonic beasts, and even those demonic beasts became the prey of tentacles, and some tentacles even passed through the tree nets forty or fifty meters high above, breaking the tree nets one by one.

A giant tentacle that suddenly appeared. It makes people look creepy. The tentacles are fleshy, generally about the waist size of an adult male, and the surface of the tentacles is covered with pitch-black fine scales, on which grows a flesh-colored suction cup the size of a human head, and there seem to be some hidden spikes inside the sucker. These tentacles are very flexible, and the rotation and dance do not feel sluggish or bulky. It makes the onlooker feel that they can even easily tie themselves into a bow and then untie it easily. What's even more terrifying is that they not only react quickly and flexibly, but also seem to have eyes, even if someone uses a weapon to chop the tentacles, the tentacles can be flexibly avoided, as if they have seen it with their own eyes.

However, even if the appearance of these giant tentacles made people feel intimidating, the girls only felt an instinctive disgust, and did not feel afraid. In the dark deep sea, an octopus the size of a giant island stretches out eight wrist legs that are four or five kilometers long, each with a diameter of hundreds of meters, and it looks like a wall up close. Compared to the wrists and feet of the deep-sea octopus clan, these so-called giant tentacles in front of them are no different from a spider silk in the eyes of humans. Of course, this is just a visual effect, and the girls are well aware of the power of these tentacles, because they can clearly see it from their performance.

The aggressiveness of the giant tentacles is very terrifying, worthy of being a special demigod-level lurker, each tentacle contains powerful power, the tentacles stretched out from the crowd only need to turn in place, and the surrounding lizardman shield hands are like kites with broken strings, hissing and flying out of a distance of several meters or even more than ten meters, falling into the mud on the ground. Nothing could stop the giant tentacles from waving, and even the tough Suogu wood around it broke under the whipping of the tentacles and fell to the ground with a bang. As for the spear throwers on the periphery, they were even more miserable, without the protection of the huge wooden shield, so they were taken care of by the tentacles, and in an instant, dozens of people were rolled up by the tentacles, entangled and waved in the air, and they could only rely on their fighting spirit to support them, but looking at their state, it was obvious that they could not support it for long under the power of the demigod demonic beast.

However, after all, the lizardmen are the most powerful and experienced hunters in the swamp, they quickly stabilized, no longer paying attention to the demonic beasts that were taking care of themselves under the sweep of the tentacles, everyone quickly gathered together, some of the strong people in the innermost circle guarded with tentacles and then drilled out from the inside, most of the giant shield hands formed several circles, the long-range spear throwers were tightly protected in the circle, the spear throwers were in a relatively safe position, and threw heavy spears at the tentacles that swung and wriggled on the periphery, although most of them were dodged by the tentacles or could not break the scales of the tentacles, but there were still some spears that accurately hit the tentacles and pierced deeply, and the spears with a fighting spirit exploded inside the tentacles, added a few large holes to the tentacles, and purple blood spurted out wildly along the broken holes, like a rain of blood.

Just when the hunters' positions were gradually stabilized, and even some of the clansmen who were swept up were saved, everything was developing on the good side, and the anomaly appeared again. (To be continued.) )

PS: Thank you for the support of the two monthly passes.

PS: I'm super happy today, the reason is kept secret, and you'll find out later. However, although I am happy, Wen will not fall from the sky because I am happy, so I have to work hard to code words. Like I said in the morning, this weekend is all this length, but I'll do my best to save up, wahahahaha.
