Chapter 9: The Death Trap

The endless vitality caused dense red strands of flesh to grow from the wound on Helo's back.

Each strand of flesh is as slender as a hair.

Shredded flesh shuttles between the skin and flesh, repeatedly sutured and intertwined, forming granulations and even filling the wound completely.

Even before the scab formed, the wound returned to its original smooth and elastic skin.

The shredded flesh was itchy when new sprouts grew from the stitched wound, but before Helo could scratch it, the tentacles behind it flashed again.

For it, the fresh flesh and blood of the aunt, and the quirky toy of Helo, either one is extremely attractive.

Syllable!

The crisp whip resounded again on Helo's back.

A bright blood flower bloomed in midair, just like the tragic experience that his aunt had just experienced, and the right half of Helo's body was cracked open by the tentacles.

The skin was open and the bones were broken, but fortunately, the limbs were not powdered, and the arms were still connected to the body.

[Physique] [New Life] The two modules flashed.

The flesh and blood recovery effect attached to [Physique]Under the amplitude of [Rebirth], dense blood filaments begin to repair the flesh.

"Come on! Again!! ”

Heloh glared at the tentacles.

It's not an instantaneous injury, as long as he is given enough time, he can recover.

It's a pity...

Both modules are the lowest grades, and the amplitude effect is too weak.

Helo looked at his right arm, and the flesh strands that climbed and intertwined on it did not grow fast, and they could only stop the bleeding at the first time.

It will take longer to restore tendons, blood vessels, and skin.

Well, just a mouthful!

If you don't want to think of a way.

He knew that if he didn't find the breaking point, he would be killed by that deep-sea soul beast sooner or later.

......

The weird [Deep Sea Sacrifice], the terrifying Deep Sea Soul Beast, and the sixth child who doesn't know where to hide.

Helo's mind raced.

Suddenly, he thought of something, and a flash of inspiration: "The shielding effect of the fish-man oil lamp is useless, and the flesh and blood can attract soul beasts, it makes no sense that [Deep Sea Sacrifice] has no reaction, after all, the blood food sacrifices and formations prepared here are all prepared for the undead in the sacrifice, according to the old woman, that soul beast is the third party!" ”

God forbid, it seems that it is not very bad to meet a fun-loving soul beast now, at least it can delay enough time.

If you encounter a soul beast with confused thinking at the beginning, it is estimated that it will already be gone.

I'm not afraid that the soul beast has wisdom, I'm afraid that it can kill instinctively.

The scraps of flesh and blood all over the ground are excellent sacrifices, but now there's a problem...

The chaos he had just created, the runic nails had shattered large wooden floors of the cabin.

The formation doesn't seem to be so complete...

"Whew..."

Exhale in your heart.

Helo decided he had to try again.

At this time, his expression suddenly froze, and he grabbed his aunt's mutilated body and threw it towards the tentacles.

Something Auntie! It's okay old woman!

You take care of it, just now my brother helped you block a blow of tentacle whipping, this time it's time for you to help my brother buy time!

The moment Helo threw it, he didn't care about the reaction of the tentacles, judging from some of the performances of the tentacles just now, it will definitely eat the old woman's body first and enjoy a good meal.

Sure enough, when Helo rushed to the side and scooped up the powder cloth bag left by his aunt, the tentacles wrapped the corpse in mid-air, the suction cups on the inside of the tentacles were attached, and the sound of 'coo-dong' blood-sucking was particularly harsh in the quiet cabin.

I, Herlo, are dead!

The traces of the formation were still there, and although some of the planks in the middle were broken, it did not affect Helo to connect him again with white powder.

It's just that the broken planks have led to a lot of increase in the amount of work, and the original area of the formation is very large, and after the cracking, it has formed an irregular expansion.

I don't know what the white powder is made of, it adheres well when sprinkled on the wooden board, and that's why Helo thanked his aunt for not being lazy when she carved the formation before, otherwise he would have to repeat it all.

After sucking all the blood of the aunt, the tentacles did not put her down, but were entangled, and the aunt folded at an astonishing angle in the tentacle crushing, then reversed, and then folded...

'Quack, Quack'

The sound of bones shattering made Helo's scalp tingle, but it reminded him of the brittle bones at the barbecue stand at the back door of the school.

This soul beast's habits are really similar to his hobbies.

No one can resist the crunchy texture of the brittle bones in the mouth.

When the tentacles get tired of the aunt's body, it's like chewing rotten bones, teh! The shapeless body was spit into the large slit in the cabin.

After enjoying the delicious tentacles, he swayed and stopped in front of Helo, sensing Helo's actions, and the crooked tentacle head seemed to be confused.

"Good! Don't worry, brother is still a little bit away from finishing, and it will be your turn to turn into blood food in a while! ”

Helo's eyes were full of excitement, and he didn't care about the tentacles around him at all, and even when he passed by a slightly intact corpse, he was in the mood to throw it to the tentacles to eat.

"It's almost there, it's almost there!"

The corpse-disgusting tentacles had been following Herro for a while.

Helo was still unaware, still doing it on his own, and his mouth couldn't stop babbling.

The tentacles seem to be impatient, why did the toy that had made me happy and full of interest suddenly not move? Compared to just now, it's not fun at all!

With a tentative whip, it shattered Helo's newly grown right shoulder blade.

Helo gritted his back molars, endured the pain of repeated tears and growth of flesh bones, and continued to depict the last bit of formation.

Sensing that Helo still had no reaction after receiving the whipping, a hoarse roar came from outside the ship, coming from under the sea, extremely dull and gloomy, like a soul from the Nine Hidden Lands, full of extreme grievances.

After roaring, the tentacles trembled in frenzy.

Syllable!

This time it broke Helo's left leg, and his tibia was irregularly bent.

Syllable!

Another whip shattered Helo's right foot, the flesh was blurred, and the white bone ballast sprouted sharp corners, and the original shape of the foot could not be seen clearly.

The last line of the formation, connect!

Helo's lower body could no longer maintain a standing position, and he was prostrate on the ground.

I saw that the formation lit up with a red light, constantly absorbing the blood between the wooden planks.

At this moment, the flesh and blood scattered in the entire cabin were guided by the formation and converged towards the center.

Clotted flesh, blood vessels, fascia, everything came together to form a mass of scarlet flesh that resembled a cocoon.

A wisp of wind blew in through the opening of the cabin, taking away the scent of a wisp of blood.

"Hey, hey! Why don't you kill the master sooner? Want to kill me now? It's late! ”

Helo slumped to the ground, completely emptying himself, allowing the flesh to repair his body, and in the process of repairing, there was an unnatural neuropathic spasm in the tendon joints.

The injuries were too severe, and even though they could be repaired with extraordinary strength, the body itself was already fatigued.

Fortunately, at this time, the soul beast was attracted by the scarlet flesh ball, and left Helo behind, and was whipping wildly, trying to open the shell of the cocoon.

It's just that the flesh and blood essence shell condensed by the formation is extremely strong.

Come to think of it, how could other creatures be allowed to devour the blood food that was originally prepared for the undead.

The dark clouds outside the ship swept sharply, and the rumbling thunder continued to explode in the depths of the thick clouds.

Viewed from the blue night sky, the entire offshore sea is shrouded in a chaotic mist.

From far to near, you can see the coastline being constantly encroached and compressed, and the sea behind the fog shrouded in the sea exudes a dead gray, like weaving a web of predators with the breath of death, devouring any life it encounters.

And now, death traps are coming towards the ship where Helo is.
