Chapter 567 - Strongest Tentacle
Moreover, Gray"s ability was considered the strongest among the three of them. Although he wasn"t confident, he wasn"t very afraid.
Suddenly, he felt something wrap around one of his ankles!
Not only was this thing very powerful, it also seemed to be full of barbs.
Most importantly, both of his ankles seemed to be wrapped by something, and it was pulling in two different directions. This situation was a little too bad.
There was an intense pain in his ankles, and a powerful force began to tear his body apart. It felt as though he was being torn apart by five horses.
This was also the reason why Gray cried out in alarm.
Klein knew that Gray had always been a man of steel. If he had encountered other situations, he definitely wouldn"t have made such a sound.
This meant that Gray was already in danger!
Klein realized that the rope in his hand was indeed shaking violently. He groped along the rope and discovered that Gray"s body was already suspended in midair.
The scariest thing was that his body was suspended upside down in midair!
"Gray! What exactly happened? Don"t scare me! What"s your current situation?"
James" voice was clearly filled with fear. Even the bravest person would still be a little afraid when faced with such an unknown and terrifying incident...
Gray tried his best to calm himself down.
"My ankles are being pulled by something. I feel as though my entire body is about to be torn apart. No, my hands are being grabbed by something as well, and my neck!"
Klein was taken aback as his eyes widened in horror. Were they going to tear Gray"s entire body apart? It was very similar to the legendary five horses dismembering a corpse!
He quickly groped over and touched one of Gray"s ankles.
"Bear with it for now. The two of us will come and save you immediately! James, you"re in charge of taking care of the rope on his wrist and his neck!"
James had been a little fl.u.s.tered before, but now he had calmed down and followed Klein"s instructions.
It was only then that the two of them realized what kind of creature was tightly binding Gray"s hands and feet.
This creature was like the tentacles of an octopus, but it was extremely powerful.
Klein gritted his teeth and confirmed the general location and situation. Then, he took out his dagger and slashed at it!
The dagger in Klein"s hand wasn"t an ordinary weapon either. It was a tier 5 weapon that had been refined.
Although it was far inferior to a tier 10 weapon, Klein believed that it should be enough under such circ.u.mstances.
As expected, with a slash and a m.u.f.fled groan, something seemed to be injured.
Immediately following that, the tentacle tightly wrapped around Gray"s ankle loosened.
Klein was still somewhat shocked. It turned out that this trick didn"t guarantee that the tentacle would be completely cut off. Instead, it only caused it some minor injuries.
It immediately loosened its grip due to the intense pain from the injury.
"What the h*ll is this thing?! Why is its skin so rough and its flesh so thick?!"
Even after using all his strength, Klein only managed to cut a light injury?
On the other side, James was in a similar situation. Gray felt the strength in his ankles, arms, and neck instantly disappear.
His body, which had been suspended in the air, fell to the ground with a thud.
He let out a gentle breath, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, was easily put down.
At this moment, he finally understood what it meant to be powerless.
In that situation, even if he had immense strength, he wouldn"t be able to save himself.
That was because the moment a person"s limbs and head were bound, they would basically lose their ability to resist.
Klein also heaved a sigh of relief. He groped and reached out to help Gray, who had fallen to the ground, up. He reached out to pat him on the back and asked with concern, "How"s your condition now? Do you feel any discomfort?"
Gray licked his dry lips. "It"s not a big problem. It"s just that the area that was tightly wound just now is a little painful."
Klein also realized that these terrifying tentacles seemed to have two barbs.
As long as they were tightly wound around a person"s skin, they would be injured.
At this moment, Gray"s joints were already covered in blood. Klein quickly took out the medical equipment he carried with him and gave him a simple medical bandage.
Gray had originally rejected it. It was just some minor injuries, so it wasn"t a problem for him.
Klein insisted. "No, I think these tentacles are very small, but if you are poisoned, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
James was a little shocked. Why could there be poison on the spikes of those tentacles? Was it true?
"Then quickly deal with it for me as well! Just now, when I was in action, I accidentally touched the spikes. It seems like I"m injured!"
The injury wasn"t serious at first. It was just a cut. James didn"t plan on creating more trouble and told the two of them.
But after hearing Klein"s words, James began to have a psychological effect. He felt that his fingers and palm were starting to go numb.
Klein quickly treated the two of them.
At this moment, Gray realized that the wound was indeed numb and itchy.
"Strange. What kind of creature does this feel like? Not only is it strong, but it has so many tentacles."
"Could it be a monster that we don"t know about?"
In fact, before entering this white world, Klein already had a certain level of a.n.a.lysis and deduction.
He thought for a moment before saying, "I feel that it should be a mutated creature. It"s like an octopus or an octopus that mutated and turned into what we previously met..."
Not only was it very strong, but its entire body was covered in barbs.
"This kind of creature should secrete a kind of mucus. Although it"s not poisonous, it will cause an allergic reaction when it touches human skin."
This was also the reason why the two of them found their wounds numb and itchy.
Most importantly, Klein felt that there wasn"t only one mutated monster, but there were thousands of them!
These things lived in a white s.p.a.ce. They didn"t even need to look with their eyes. They could rely on their senses to sense the invasion of an enemy, and they could wrap themselves around a person"s limbs and neck with great precision!
And the poor flying bird just now was probably tightly wrapped around by this thing.
The flying bird was very small. If a person was entangled, the consequences would be unimaginable. In the end, there would be no bones left.
Humans were larger in size, so they could be considered to be able to fight it.
At that moment, Klein suddenly heard a hissing sound. His heart stirred, and his entire body began to be on guard.
In this bottomless white, he had to maintain his vigilance at all times before he knew that the terrifying creature"s tentacles had appeared again!
Although the sound it made was very loud, Klein could still hear that it seemed to be quietly approaching.
"Everyone, be careful.. That thing seems to be coming again. Remember, don"t get your hands and feet entangled by it, or the consequences will be disastrous!"
