Chapter 813: Chapter 772: Now It’s Marathon Time!
The North Sea Police Station’s Beastmaster Squad rushes to support the Spirit Beast Camp.
Chenghuang and Qiutu charge fearlessly under their master’s command towards the Abyssal Giant Octopus, whose body is a hundred times larger than theirs.
Stepping on the void, Chenghuang quickly rushes towards the BOSS, while Qiutu takes advantage of the situation, wraps around Chenghuang, and approaches the BOSS. Before they get close, they start to make hissing noises as they wave their snake-like tongues.
Chenghuang can fly and heal, but their offensive ability is weak.
Qiutu, on the other hand, is highly toxic. As long as it hits its target, it will cause them to be poisoned and continuously take damage for the next 2 minutes, making it the main source of damage.
Although the two officers are fast, there are still people who are faster.
A large number of players surround the battling young Kun and Giant Octopus, forming a semicircular formation on the shore, commanding their pets to join the battle and support the young Kun.
The scene is very intense, with small creatures constantly unable to dodge and being flung away by the swinging tentacles of the Giant Octopus, immediately taking heavy damage.
There are few healing pets, so they run around to help with healing.
Some players don’t care about other people’s pets and just command their own pets to focus on healing the young Kun.
But even with so much support, the battle situation is still very unfavorable: the young Kun seriously lacks close combat capabilities.
Even though the health bars of the two world BOSS with astonishing body size are not visible, the young Kun is clearly at a disadvantage by just looking with the naked eye.
The support from the North Sea Police Station is like a drop in the bucket.
Especially after the Kun was wrapped by the Giant Octopus’ tentacles, it became more and more difficult to resist, and the strength of its two long fins became weaker and weaker.
The audience in the live broadcast room with a global perspective can see the situation clearer and are even more anxious than the players on-site.
But no matter how anxious they are, it’s useless.
– This is a battle happening in reality, and the vast majority of people can’t help even if they want to.
The young Kun’s resistance is getting weaker and weaker, and it is gradually being dragged to the shore by the Giant Octopus. If it is dragged ashore, it will be really close to death.
Captain Strawberry commands Fuzhu to continuously cast [Purify], relieving the young Kun from the toxins inflicted by the Giant Octopus, and anxiously shouts, “Hurry up and break its tentacles!”
Under the concentrated fire of the spirit beasts, the tentacles of the Giant Octopus can indeed be broken, but each one takes a lot of time.
Before Kun is dragged ashore, there is no time to break all the eight tentacles wrapped around it.
A mournful cry mixed with sadness and anger comes from the young Kun’s throat, making it unbearable to listen to.
But at this critical moment, someone noticed that Lincoln had posted a Spiritual Rhinoceros moment:
[[Eight Sides] users, look up.]
Netizens occupy the comment section immediately, but they can’t come up with any witty remarks.
Because this post is really baffling, many people actually looked up at the sky the moment they saw it, trying to discover something.
Of course, they saw nothing.
Not only ordinary people couldn’t see anything, but the [Eight Sides] users also couldn’t see anything.
In the end, the comment section was completely occupied by question marks, all asking Lincoln not to be cryptic and to come out and explain.
But Lincoln didn’t explain, as the answer would appear soon–
Kun was dragged ashore by the Giant Octopus, too exhausted to struggle, collapsing on the shore and being violently whipped by the Octopus’ tentacles, making the players on-site think they were done for.
However, Captain Strawberry, who was closest to the shore and had been commanding Fuzhu to cast [Purify], suddenly felt a chill on her ankle.
When she looked down, she noticed that the water had reached her feet without her noticing.
“Wasn’t I still two meters away from the shore?” Captain Strawberry was confused.
But just in the time it took for her to have this thought, the water had reached her calves.
The bone-chilling cold lake water made her shiver involuntarily, and she quickly put aside her doubts and quickly moved away from the water surface.
But as she ran forward, the water chased after her, and the speed of the water surge was even faster than her running!
Players who were standing close to the shore noticed this and started running away.
During the tense situation, Captain Strawberry touched her clothes and found them still dry, so she breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the water and the cold were virtual.
However, being immersed in the waist-deep cold water was still unbearable, so she continued to desperately flee from the water flow.
Luckily, the water flow didn’t spread indefinitely. Once it reached the position of the Kun, it stopped flowing outwards and instead wrapped around the Kun’s body in layers, enveloping it in the cold water, then began pulling it back.
As the Giant Octopus wrapped around the Kun’s body, it was naturally pulled back as well.
The Giant Octopus didn’t want to be dragged back into the water and had to let go of the tentacles wrapped around the young Kun, allowing it to return to the water.
As soon as the Kun entered the water, the originally calm surface of the North Sea turned into a boiling pot, starting to surge with waves!
Seeing the situation turning unfavorable, the Giant Octopus spewed poisonous liquid towards the water, injecting a large amount of foul-smelling poison into the North Sea.
How toxic, they didn’t know, but the already chaotic water surface became even more difficult to see clearly, and they could only vaguely see the shadow under the waves getting bigger and bigger.
The Kun was growing at an astonishing speed, leaving its infancy behind!
Its tail shortened and disappeared, replaced by sharp hind claws; its two long fins kept getting longer and wider, changing at a visible speed, so they no longer looked like fish fins, but more like – wings!
Every time it flapped, it caused huge waves. When a large amount of water was struck towards the sky, the lakeside waterline automatically shrank. When the water flowed back into the North Sea, the waterline pushed out quickly, as if the entire North Sea had come to life, with the tide becoming its breath.
Until a certain moment, the young Kun completed its growth, and its huge wings stretched out from the water. With a forceful smash, it caused a massive wave!
With the help of this water strike, it jumped up.
The next moment, Kunpeng spread its wings and soared into the sky!
Strong winds from the high sky poured into the earth.
People on the shore, with the wind roaring in their ears, couldn’t help but look up at the legendary creature, unable to blink for fear of missing something.
That was the famous Kunpeng!
Violent winds and clouds shuttled under its wings, sunlight completely blocked, casting a golden edge on Kunpeng’s body, and the entire battlefield was enveloped in the huge shadow it cast.
Players fell silent in awe.
Captain Strawberry raised his neck, opened his mouth widely, and after a long time, he uttered two sentences filled with admiration:
“So – big!”
“Really big, really big!”
How big exactly?
Kunpeng flapped its wings, riding the fierce wind as it dived towards the shore!
The giant Abyssal Octopus, which had already secretly reached the water surface, with half of its body submerged in water, was tightly caught by the newly grown hind claws of Kunpeng and taken into the sky with its vibrating wings.
The huge octopus, which was previously of a similar size to the young Kun, now looked like a toy in its grasp. No matter how hard it struggled and waved its tentacles, it could not shake Kunpeng’s claws.
Using the octopus as a reference and estimating proportionally, Kunpeng’s body length had already exceeded a kilometer! Its wingspan was even longer!
Soon, the giant Abyssal Octopus was thrown down from the sky by Kunpeng.
“Boom!”
With a loud noise, a huge pit was made on the ground by the octopus.
The Abyssal Octopus, which had only less than half of its health points depleted by the players, was killed instantly!
The next moment, two things happened simultaneously:
Kunpeng made a loud, resonating cry in the sky, shattering the clouds, and then spread its wings, heading south.
From the corpse of the Abyssal Octopus, just before the loots formed from the light, a small, tender pink octopus suddenly emerged. Upon seeing the players, it immediately began to run away!
“What the hell?”
Everyone was momentarily confused, just having taken their eyes off Kunpeng, only to see the little octopus running away.
Although it was also an octopus, the look was completely different from that of the previous Abyssal Octopus!
Pink and tender, cute and lovely, it finally matched the previous spirit beasts in style, and even had a name above its head –
[Kraken]
Seeing this, everyone immediately realized: this was the juvenile form of the Abyssal Octopus.
And there was a high probability that it could be captured by players!
As a result –
“Stop! Don’t run!”
“Come back! Come home with me!”
“Dingling! Dingling!! Dingling!!!”
…
The crowd rushed towards the little octopus, running while taking out their copper bells and shaking them non-stop.
But the little octopus was incredibly fast, breaking out of the crowd in a blink of an eye.
Of course, the players wouldn’t give up so easily. A large group of people chased after it relentlessly.
Just like that, an impromptu game of “Pokémon” chasing began without warning.
Next, it was a test of stamina and time!
If one couldn’t even run a marathon, how could they expect to catch a rare pet?
There is nothing that easy!
