Faced with a strong gust of wind that whipped up a tentacle in front of her in the blink of an eye, Shirley did not panic. The pitch-black Spear of Fallen into the Abyss quickly crystallized in her hand and stabbed hard at the tentacle.
Poof!
The sharp spear tip pierced the tentacle's skin, and black juice flowed out from the wound, but that was all.
The tentacles looked soft, but were several times tougher than expected. The Spear of Fallen Abyss stayed on the surface, unable to penetrate any further.
Even because of the stimulation, the muscles in the tentacles instantly tightened, trapping the Spear of Falling into the Abyss, making it impossible for Shirley to pull it out.
Very decisively, Shirley gave up the spear directly, stepped on the hardened tentacles, and kicked backwards...
Whoosh!
Shirley, who soared in the air and flipped back, perfectly avoided the new tentacle that shot up from the water below. If she had been slower just now, she might have been hit hard by this.
the other side.
The scythe appeared in Vivian's hand, and just when she was about to rush to support, she was forced to swing it diagonally downwards.
It seems that he noticed that the little girl was approaching Shirley, and two tentacles appeared from the sea under Vivian's feet, blocking her.
The scene was at a deadlock for a while. The abyssal octopus under the water, even though it was one against two, did not lose at all. The main reason was its rough-skinned and thick-skinned tentacles. Even if one of them was cut off, it would soon be restored. There is a constant stream of new tentacles shooting from the bottom of the sea.
However, the opponent's shortcomings are also obvious, and their lethality is too weak. This can especially be seen from Shirley's battle situation.
The tentacles are thick and powerful, but apart from the two physical attacks of pumping and sweeping, there is nothing else. Once you figure out the way, you can easily avoid them.
On the other hand, look at Vivian.
Maybe the little girl involved didn't notice, and was still using a sickle to cut away the tentacles blocking the way, trying to join Shirley, but as Vivian got closer to Shirley, she emerged from the water and blocked the way. There are more tentacles in front of the little girl.
However, the little wolf cub, who had not taken any action and was watching the battle, discovered some clues.
On Shirley's side of the battle, although these tentacles are not very lethal, they are very aggressive. On Vivian's side, so far, the little wolf cub has never seen the tentacles like they did to Shirley. Swinging or sweeping towards the little girl.
These tentacles seemed to just want to surround Vivian. Instead, the little girl's side had been taking the lead in the attack. But even though one tentacle after another was cut off by Vivian, they still did not make any move. Any attack action.
Although in the eyes of anxious Vivian, these tentacles approaching her were probably regarded as attacks by the little girl.
I have to explain such weird behavior...
The speculation about the octopus that Vivian had raised in the conference room reappeared in the little wolf cub's mind.
Is it possible...
If we follow Vivian's logic and look at what just happened, then everything seems to be explained.
The only difference between the Stranger's ship back then and Vivian's ship now was Shirley on the ship.
Perhaps in the eyes of the octopus, Shirley is the same "Leader of the Abyss" monster like it, while Vivian is a weak human like the original Stranger.
It directly used its tentacles to destroy the ship. Perhaps its purpose was not to destroy, but to use this blow to force Shirley, the "dangerous monster", away from Vivian.
Is it to...save the little girl?
That's why after that, he continued to attack Shirley with his tentacles, as if to drive Shirley away. Later, when Vivian wanted to get closer to Shirley, the tentacles would also block the little girl's way. In front of him, it was not to attack her, but to stop Vivian, not wanting the little girl to get close to danger.
The more he thought about it, the more it made sense. The little wolf cub hurriedly sent a message to Vivian, asking her not to worry and try to back away in the opposite direction to Shirley's position.
After the little girl did as she was told, as expected, the tentacles blocking Vivian's face suddenly retreated a lot.
"this..."
Vivian didn't understand very much. It was only after the little wolf cub revealed his guess later that her eyes widened.
Yes...yes!
Why didn't she think of this! No, it should be said that she was momentarily panicked by the surprise attack, so she denied her original guess. Fortunately, Xiao Hei was there to watch the situation clearly.
So the next question becomes how to let this "friendly" octopus know that Shirley is different from those dangerous fallen leaders.
"Yes! Xiao Hei, help me hold these tentacles!" Vivian quickly determined her train of thought. After saying these words to the little wolf cub, her figure joined Shirley again.
Seeing that Vivian was approaching again, the tentacle impatiently came closer to stop her as before, but this time, the little girl dodged and a huge black wolf appeared behind Vivian.
These tentacles may be big and difficult for Shirley and Vivian, but for high-level monsters, they are trivial.
The black wolf's claws can knock these tentacles back into the water with just a tap. Even Shirley's Spear of Fallen Abyss can't penetrate the tough tentacles. Under the black wolf's sharp claws, it takes only a matter of minutes to tear them apart. .
When it comes to hand-to-hand combat, monsters always come first, and taboo monsters are the kings of all monsters. Fighting across levels is as simple as commonplace, so Liao Zixuan should show mercy.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, if he had directly greeted the opponent with dark flames, he would not have been slapped back into the sea, but would have eaten takoyaki directly.
With Xiao Hei restraining the tentacles, Vivian's pressure suddenly decreased. Even after everything happened, the octopus still tried its best to free up one or two scattered tentacles to "dissuade" the little girl from getting close to Shirley, but they were all stopped by Wei. Wei An nimbly dodged.
"Shirley!"
After approaching the white-haired woman, the little girl shouted. Just when Shirley thought Vivian was going to join forces with her to launch some kind of breakout...
"Hold my hand!" Vivian's anxious voice echoed in Shirley's ears.
This time Shirley was stunned.
Wha...what?
But her brain didn't react. She watched Vivian rushing towards her and stretched out a hand to pull her towards her. Shirley subconsciously gave up other actions and responded to the little girl out of trust.
Holding hands together, Vivian successfully completed the intercourse with Shirley.
but...
The two of them were stuck together, but from Shirley's perspective, she could see that a tentacle that had just come straight towards her was about to skewer the two of them into candied haws.
"Lady Vivian, little...!"
Shirley suddenly spoke anxiously, wanting to fight back and dodge, but Vivian held Shirley's hand and protected Shirley behind her. Then she quickly turned around and faced the piercing tentacles without even the slightest dodge. the meaning of.
to be honest.
Shirley was almost frightened to death at this scene. She would rather be penetrated than see Vivian injured.
But the good news is that it’s the next moment.
As if braking suddenly, the tentacle finally hovered less than one meter away from Vivian, swinging restlessly back and forth, as if hesitating or confused.
But there is no doubt that it is not going any further.
At this scene, the little wolf cub next to him silently withdrew his dark flames.
As for Vivian, the person involved, she went from holding her breath nervously to now smiling with relief and joy on her face.
"Come on, Shirley."
Vivian guided Shirley, who was still completely confused about the current situation, to come out little by little from behind her. During this period, she could see that the tentacles were restlessly moving. Maybe it was because of Vivian's protective behavior just now, or maybe it was because of Vivian's protective behavior just now. Since Vivian had been holding Shirley's hand tightly from the beginning to the end, in the end, even without Vivian blocking the front, the tentacle did not choose to attack Shirley again.
Obviously, the little girl used her actions to successfully convey what she wanted to express to the octopus under the sea.
Shirley is not in danger.
They are together.
One by one, the tentacles dived back to the surface of the sea, but before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, they suddenly surfaced again.
Each tentacle rolled up some water-soaked pieces of wood. If you take a closer look, aren't they the wreckage of the ship they just destroyed?
The tentacles tried their best to put the planks back together and assemble them into the original boat again, but how could this be possible? In the end, the tentacles had to give up and then ran away in fear like a child who had done something wrong. .
"Sir Vivian, could it really be..." At this point, even without Vivian's explanation, Shirley could understand.
A look of intense disbelief appeared on Shirley's face.
Having become one with the Fallen Abyss, she is more aware of how evil the monsters spawned by this filthy power are. Shirley never thought that a "Vivian" could be born in the Fallen Abyss. .
"Shirley, can you try to communicate with it?" It was Vivian's words next to her that brought Shirley back to reality.
The woman nodded with bright eyes.
Judging from the performance of the octopus just now, it is at least initially about the level of intelligence of a human child. Shirley thinks it can give it a try.
After the idea was finalized, Vivian held up the magic barrier, and the two of them and the beast immediately began to sink into the sea and dive deep into the sea.
After a while, the deep trench and ravine in the players' images appeared in front of them.
The monsters from the Abyss that had previously disappeared from the fourth sea area now filled the entire field of vision, crowded into the trench so densely that the end could not be seen at a glance.
Before this, Shirley and the little wolf cub might have thought that the other party was up to some conspiracy.
But now it seems...
These Abyss monsters may really have just been forced into this trench by the octopus, making them stay here honestly and not allowed to move anywhere.
In this way, there is an answer to why the fourth wave of falling into the abyss has not come yet.
However, figuring out the current situation was not what they wanted. Solving this problem was the purpose of Vivian's visit this time.
Unfortunately, in the largest ravine on the seabed, where the octopus hides, it seems to have noticed the arrival of Vivian and Shirley, and even sealed its "door" tightly with its tentacles, as if it was afraid They came to settle accounts.
But it could block the ravine with its tentacles, but it couldn't block Shirley's mental will. After being bombarded by Shirley on the regional network of Fallen Abyss, she finally...
The octopus couldn't stand it any longer, so it reluctantly emerged from the ravine, and from its vocal outlet of unknown location, it made a vague sound similar to "Abba, Ababa" to Shirley.
At this point, Vivian and the little wolf cub could not help much. They could only watch Shirley and Octopus having an encrypted call on the Fallen Abyss channel.
But even though they couldn't understand, they could still tell from their aura that one was a bad girl and the other seemed to be a primary school student who was bullied so much that the octopus was basically being bullied before he even finished a sentence. Shirley replied in three sentences.
Even later, it evolved into Shirley spitting out a syllable, and the octopus shivered, and then nodded desperately.
"Lord Vivian, after the negotiation is over, Clara has agreed to assist us in defeating the big snake in the deepest part. She has also taken the initiative to take on the task of controlling other Abyss creatures, ensuring that our army can have a smooth journey. Come to the hinterland without hindrance and fight the big snake."
"Ah!? Is this...really!? Shirley, you are so awesome! How did you do it!!" Vivian's eyes were filled with stars. She never thought that Shirley could take such a step in place.
And the answer Shirley gave was...
"Nothing, I just told her that the boat is Lady Vivian, a family heirloom passed down from our ancestors. It is unique in the world and is of great significance to you. Now that it was damaged by her, she will naturally have to compensate us."
"Then she asked me how I wanted to compensate, and I told her the biggest answer. At first she was reluctant to agree, but then I told her, you don't want to see such a cute human girl cry because of you, and then she I agreed.”
Shirley briefly recounted their negotiation exchange in a nonchalant manner.
Vivian: "..."
At this moment, the little girl suddenly understood why Xiao Hei always looked like he was sighing at herself. It seems that she can survive until now without being deceived...
Thank you, Xiaohei!
When they returned to the sea, there was a white and soft little octopus lying on Vivian's shoulder. This was the shrunken fourth wave of fallen leaders, from Shirley's I learned her name, which was the same as the one detected by the players - Clara.
Vivian: "Aba Aba?"
Clara: "Abba...Abba..."
"Aba Aba!"
"Abba! Abba!"
Seeing the little girl and Clara chatting animatedly, and the two seemed to be getting along exceptionally well and getting along very well, the little wolf cub couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and raised his head to ask Shirley, his temporary wolf climbing frame.
"Are they really talking?"
Shirley shook her head firmly: "No."
The subtext is that they are all talking nonsense and are not on the same channel.
But seeing the little girl giggling non-stop, and the little octopus waving its tentacles in the air excitedly, it really looked like they were having a great conversation...
"All right..."
