Chapter 475: Giant Octopus
Looking in the direction of Zheng Zhiyuan's finger, Ye Yunyang saw a mass of objects moving at high speed.
In the dark, you can't see anything if you don't look closely.
Zheng Zhiyuan said in a deep voice: "That thing was accidentally discovered by Senior Brother! Although the three of us are all Bright Sky Realm martial artists, we didn't notice when it appeared, and we can't be sure which direction it came from. This guy is such a thief, such a big body, he doesn't make any sound when he moves. ”
Ye Yunyang said with an indifferent expression: "Because the octopus itself is a cold-blooded animal, its body has no temperature, so it is difficult to be detected. ”
Zheng Zhiyuan nodded: "Uncle Xiao's analysis is right. ”
In less than a minute, the giant octopus came to the entrance of the depression from the south side.
It stopped at the entrance to make sure there was no danger before continuing inside.
Ye Yunyang stood up abruptly and pulled the signal flare in his hand.
Sou...... Syllable......
Red fireworks exploded in the air, and the soldiers who were lying in ambush on the periphery rolled over their horses and rushed towards here.
By the light of the fireworks, he was able to see the giant octopus in its entirety.
The guy was lying on the ground in a "semi-flat" state, with a hazel body more than forty meters in diameter, with thousands of tentacles of various sizes, covered with bowl-shaped red suction cups.
The oval head in the shape of an umbrella cover has two thin striped eyes, exuding an icy gaze.
In the face of the sudden light, the giant octopus did not show any panic, even if Ye Yunyang and Zheng Zhiyuan and other martial arts masters appeared, it still did not care about it, and pounced straight on the buffalo tied to the wooden stake.
Realizing the danger coming, the buffaloes showed their agitation and opened their mouths to moo.
The octopus threw out a thick tentacle and landed on a buffalo from above, instantly rolled it up, pulled it out of the ground with a rope and a stake, and dragged it over.
Moo......
The buffalo let out a frightened cry, and the octopus's strong tentacles coiled it, and although it struggled, it could not move for half a minute.
At this time, the octopus's head was tilted, revealing a large mouth of blood with whiskers around it, and swallowed the buffalo in one gulp, and the plasma immediately flowed out along the whiskers.
Liu Yuying and Dongfang Yixue also rushed over, and the two witnessed the whole process of the octopus devouring the buffalo, and they were frightened.
"No wonder a small town can be destroyed in an instant, in front of this kind of monster, people have no room for resistance!" Dongfang Yixue said sincerely.
The tentacles of the octopus are flexible and can catch prey up to 100 meters away.
It stood in place, and as a dozen tentacles were thrown out one after another, the buffalo was dragged into its mouth one by one.
"Yun Yang, it's finished, what's next?" Liu Yuying asked.
Ye Yunyang frowned: "The next step will definitely be to attack us, so we have to rush to the front!"
After speaking, he jumped to a three-bow bed crossbow, the crossbow arrow had already been loaded, and he skillfully operated the device to control the direction, completed the aiming action of the target, and decisively deducted the crossbow machine.
Sou......
Ten one-foot-long ballistas roared out, all of which hit the octopus in the head.
The one-foot-long spear head was submerged by about two-thirds, and Ye Yunyang's face was happy, it seemed that the octopus's body was not impregnable.
But in the next second, he couldn't be happy.
I saw that the octopus shook its head very casually, and the crossbow guns fell one after another, and the wound had healed at a very fast speed, leaving no traces.
"How can this be?" said Dongfang Yixue in surprise.
"We underestimated it!" Ye Yunyang said in a deep voice.
At the same time, the light of the signal flare gradually disappeared, and the three brothers of Zheng Zhiyuan threw torches one after another, continuing to illuminate the depression.
"Uncle Junior, or let's rush up and fight it. Shi Fenghua proposed.
Ye Yunyang shook his head: "Before the situation is unclear, it's best not to step forward, as the old saying goes, two fists are hard to beat four hands, that guy has thousands of hands." ”
The three nodded, and one came to a bed crossbow.
The octopus looked up at this side, its bloody mouth hissing, and dozens of tentacles poked out together, driving its body to rush towards this side.
"Two junior brothers, launch quickly!" Shi Fenghua shouted.
Zheng Zhiyuan and Xiao Yuda responded, and the three bed crossbows were fired at the same time.
The octopus raised a dozen tentacles and knocked most of the ballista to the ground, only seven or eight hit its body and tentacles, but it was quickly thrown out.
As before, the wound left by the crossbow healed quickly.
Ye Yun raised his brows and frowned, he picked up the fire oil jar beside him and threw it down.
Boom......
The jar containing forty pounds of oil shattered, and slimy oil splashed on the octopus.
This part of the body that was glued to the oil immediately appeared to be uncoordinated, Ye Yunyang's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "It really works!"
The octopus has no bones in its body, and relies on its tentacles to touch the ground to complete its forward movements, and the oil can reduce the friction coefficient between the tentacles and the ground, and the phenomenon of slipping can hinder its travel speed.
Seeing this, the two daughters picked up the jar and threw it down.
At the same time, the soldiers were in place, and Yin Falcon ordered loudly: "The first round of salvos, prepare...... Put!"
The sound of bowstrings rang out at the same time, and thousands of crossbow guns whistled out, piercing the air and whining.
The octopus stopped, raised its long, hundreds of tentacles, and protected its head in the middle.
Yin Falcon didn't squint, and shouted again: "Wind, load the arrows, and prepare for the second salvo!"
Ye Yunyang turned around and said, "Uncle Yin, you can dip poison in the head of the gun!"
Yin Falcon nodded and ordered: "Quenching poison!"
As the words fell, the soldiers took out the barrels one by one and opened the lids to reveal the blue-green liquid inside.
This is a poisonous juice extracted from a local poisonous weed, and it is very poisonous.
The soldier in charge of loading the arrows dipped ten crossbow guns into the bucket at the same time, and when all the guns were glued with poison juice, they were taken out and placed at the firing site.
"Second salvo, put!"
Despite the countless tentacles that protected it, a third of the ballista guns hit the octopus in the head.
The soldiers threw more torches, illuminating the depression.
The octopus shook its body, the crossbow gun fell off, Ye Yunyang observed carefully, and as the wound healed quickly, the poisonous juice was all squeezed out and dripped down its body to the ground.
Void!
Liu Yuying threw out five or six jars of oil one after another, all of which smashed on the octopus's body, and Dongfang Yixue threw out a torch, which happened to fall on the oil.
Call......
The fire burned, the tentacles of the octopus shook violently, and the slime in the suction cup area was instantly dried and curled.
Ye Yunyang just saw this scene, stretched out his hand and patted his head and said, "I should have thought that aquatic animals should be afraid of fire, Uncle Yin, order the soldiers to use rockets and fire attacks!"
"Understood!" Yin Falcon immediately ordered.
Ye Yunyang took out the sixth-level fire and thunder spell talisman from his pocket, and the Xuan power revealed his palm and activated the talisman.
Three fireballs with a diameter of one meter fell from the sky and smashed accurately on the octopus.
The octopus hisses and screams, using its body to roll to extinguish the fire.
The soldiers moved quickly, wrapping cotton soaked in fire oil behind the guns and igniting them before the bed crossbows were fired.
Whoosh...... Call......
The musket pierced the octopus, and wherever it was burned, it quickly dried up and cracked.
Yin Falcon's face was full of excitement, and he shouted, "Speed up!" A few of you are responsible for throwing the oil down, try to throw it as accurately as possible. ”
"Yes!"
Realizing that something was wrong, the giant octopus chose a direction to break out, ignoring the ballista and rushing straight for the southern exit.
"Defenders in the south, throw stones!" Yin Falcon ordered, and hundreds of soldiers pulled the crowbar together, and large and small stones rolled down all over the sky.
Puff ......
Thundered......
Dozens of the octopus's tentacles were smashed, and its flesh was blurred, and it had to change direction and turn around and rush to the west.
The defenders to the west pushed the boulder down, along with dozens of jars of oil and crossbows like locusts.
The jar cracked, and the oil was poured on the octopus, which was ignited by the musket that followed, and half of its body was on fire.
The octopus struggled violently, lost its center of gravity, and fell all the way back to the lowest point of the depression from the half-slope.
Yin Falcon shouted excitedly: "The monster is not fast, the soldiers work hard!"
After a few minutes, the octopus struggled less and less, until it was lying on the ground and curled into a ball, and then stopped moving.
"Ceasefire!" Yin Falcon turned to ask Zheng Zhiyuan, "Master Yutian Kingdom, is the beast dead?"
Zheng Zhiyuan frowned and said: "It's hard to say, because when it was alive, we couldn't feel the characteristics of life, so it is difficult to determine whether it is dead or alive now." ”
One of the generals stood up and said, "General, I'll go down and have a look." ”
Yin Falcon was just about to agree, but Ye Yunyang opened his mouth and said, "Don't worry, as the old saying goes, a hundred-legged insect dies without stiffness, so it's better to be careful." Whether it's a ballista or a fire oil, it only hurts its appearance, and I don't think it should die so easily. ”
After waiting for a few minutes, the octopus remained motionless.
Several generals asked for battle one after another, and Yin Falcon finally nodded and agreed.
They came to the bottom of the depression, and one of them raised his foot and stepped on the tentacles of the octopus, unresponsive.
The second man swung his sword, severing a tentacle that was almost charred, but remained unresponsive.
The third man was the most daring, jumped onto the octopus's body, walked back and forth a few steps, and raised his hand to stab the long sword down.
The octopus still didn't react, he raised his head and said with a smile: "General, it's really dead!"
Yin Falcon let out a long breath and said, "Finally dead." ”
The soldiers were all relieved, in order to hunt and kill a sea beast, thousands of troops were dispatched, plus a hundred three-bow bed crossbows, and twenty or thirty thousand crossbow guns alone were consumed, and there were countless supplies such as fire oil and poisonous juice.
Just when everyone relaxed their vigilance, the octopus lying on the ground suddenly stood up, tore several people around him to pieces with lightning speed, and rushed towards the south.
These people all have the level of martial artists in the Gathering God Realm, and they have no power to resist.
The defenders to the south were caught off guard and could not complete their aiming maneuvers in a panic, and all the crossbow guns they fired were nailed to the ground, and the stones used for defense were all used up, and nothing could stop them.
"How can this be?" Yin Falcon was shocked: "It's ...... It's going to play dead?"
It was too late, and a figure appeared in the southern position, carrying a crossbow in his hand, and threw it at the octopus that was close at hand.
Sou...... Burst......
The crossbow pierced the octopus in the right eye accurately, reaching a depth of more than a meter.
It was Ye Yunyang, he threw the crossbow gun with ten percent of his strength, and the octopus was still rushing over, waving dozens of tentacles, and it was about to fall on him.
"Yun Yang!" the two women shouted in unison.
