The three of them stared at Mag, lost in thought.
Mag looked at them and fell into deep thought.
He really wasn't trying to show off, he... was forced to do so.
"I'll just chop it off." Mag tried.
"Okay, it's a man. I'll accompany you to chop him." Crassus patted his chest and said.
"I can slow down his movements." Julian nodded slightly.
"I can use holy light to open a path for you within the seal, but the concentration of the black mist there is unpredictable, so the time may be very short. You must return immediately after cutting." Irina said with a smile.
"Okay." Mag nodded, stood in front of the altar with a sword in both hands, exhaled lightly, and his expression became extremely solemn.
"Here we come!" Irina shouted softly, and a bright holy light shot out from the mage's staff, instantly illuminating the cave and cutting a passage through the thick black mist. It rushed straight towards the octopus monster's eyebrows, leaving a black scorch mark several meters deep on its eyebrows, but it still failed to cause substantial damage to it.
Almost at the same time, Julian punched the mage's staff on the ground, and the temperature in the cave suddenly dropped by dozens of degrees. Frost began to spread rapidly from his feet towards the octopus monster. Soon, there was ice on the tentacles of the octopus monster. A layer of white frost condensed, and the speed of squirming was visibly reduced, and the movement was obviously slowed down and restricted.
"Hey! Taste my fireballs!" Julian shouted, leaped tens of meters high, waved his magic staff towards the octopus monster, and huge red fireballs flew towards the octopus monster like meteorites.
"Jiejie——"
The octopus monster seemed to be irritated by everyone's behavior, and let out a low roar, swinging its tentacles to scatter most of the fireballs, but a few fireballs still landed on its tentacles, and the fireballs exploded on his body. A scorch mark was left, but the damage would be repaired soon.
"It's now!"
The moment Irina's holy light inspired him, Mag had already chased the light and rushed into the seal. He raised his sword and slashed it down, striking the tentacle closest to him.
Tiandu Sword is not a very sharp sword, but it is a very hard sword. Coupled with his sword skills and strength, it is almost invincible.
But when this sword stood on the tentacles, it felt like it was cutting into a mire. The sticky and soft touch removed most of the strength of the long sword, and the countless suckers on the tentacles were even more powerful. He followed the trend and sucked the Tiandu Sword tightly, making it difficult for him to withdraw the sword.
A pair of scarlet eyes were already staring at Mag, like a wild beast staring at its prey.
More tentacles were coming towards him, which proved that the octopus monster had noticed him as an intruder.
The blow failed, and the sword stuck to the tentacle again. There was probably nothing worse than this.
At the moment, Mag had only one choice, to abandon his sword and leave. Irina and the others should be able to leave him a way to return.
Mag glanced at the Tiandu Sword tightly held in his hand. The hilt of the sword shone with light, as if he wanted to say something.
In this flash of lightning, Mag suddenly pulled out the fat-headed fish from his waist and stood on the tentacles with a knife.
"clatter!"
With a crisp sound, the tentacles that were as thick as a human waist broke off.
"It's done!?" Mag's eyes lit up, and he didn't care about being stunned. He put the fat-headed fish back into the scabbard on his waist with his backhand, put the Tiandu Sword with the octopus tentacles on his shoulder, turned around and ran away.
The passage left by the Holy Light is getting smaller and smaller, and the black mist on both sides is squirming and squeezing crazily, and behind him, countless tentacles are rushing towards him.
"boom!"
Mag was almost knocked out of the seal and pressed his hand on the stone wall, leaving a half-foot-deep palm print.
Behind him, countless tentacles hit the golden light wall. With the flickering of the light wall, the colliding tentacles melted away, and the octopus monster also let out an angry roar.
"As expected of Alex, there is no one else in the younger generation with such courage and courage." Crassus looked at Mag with admiration.
"Only when you are infinitely close to death can you understand the true meaning of survival." Mag wiped a cold sweat and said as calmly as possible.
"I didn't expect that the devil's tentacles could really be cut off." Julian looked at the tentacles still stuck on Mag's sword with a surprised expression.
After leaving the seal, the tentacles shrunk by more than half, but they are still as thick as an adult's thigh. They are just one tentacle over one meter long, with eight eyes growing on it. After being cut off, the red light has disappeared, but it still looks very weird. fear.
"This monster should have a very powerful self-healing ability. Broken tentacles can be fully restored within three breaths, so it has nothing to do with breaking a few tentacles." Irina looked at the monster that had fully restored its tentacles. The octopus monster said, including the injuries Crassus had caused it previously.
"The damage caused by Holy Light Magic is indeed stronger than ordinary magic, and it is not so easy to repair." Julian said thoughtfully, looking at the wound that still existed between the octopus monster's eyebrows.
"In that seal, I can feel the power of this guy more clearly. Its body contains unimaginable energy, and it also possesses extremely powerful mental power." Mag is the only person who has ever entered the seal. said the man.
"It seems that we can only strengthen this seal so that it can't escape and attract its followers for the time being, and then we can slowly think of a way." Julian frowned and began to study the ancient symbols around the altar. arts.
"If you need materials, I have some here. See if you can use them." Crassus threw a storage ring to Julian.
"I also have a batch of formation materials here." Irina waved her mage staff, and there was a pile of materials shining with various colors in front of her.
When no one was paying attention, Mag quietly pulled out the Tiandu Sword from its tentacles, then used the fat-headed fish to cut off a section of the octopus tentacles with eyes, and said in his heart: "System, hurry up and accept this fresh old ruler." Tentacles!"
"Ding! An unknown powerful biological ingredient has been detected! It has been inspected!"
"Congratulations to the host for completing the high-level mission and obtaining a portion of the old ruler's ingredients!"
"The test report will be sent to the host after 24 hours, please pay attention to check it then!"
The octopus tentacle in Mag's hand disappeared, and the system's voice sounded in his mind.
Although they don't know what the system can detect, this is probably the one thing they can look forward to now. Maybe they can get a way to restrain this octopus monster from the detection report.
What is terrifying about the Old Ones is not how powerful their bodies are, but their ability to influence and control the spirits of creatures everywhere, even if they are sealed thousands of meters deep underground and shrouded in numerous formations. , but they are still influencing the world.
