PNB Chapter 222 The Death of the Giant Octopus
Chapter 222 The Death of the Giant Octopus
Shen Zechuan had already placed his hand on the tentacle, and when Dr. Liu gave the order, he decisively pulled out the tentacle.
The moment the tentacle detached from the body, the wound, which had been gradually stopping bleeding, began to bleed again, instantly staining the ground beneath them red.
Dr. Liu didn't dare delay and immediately disinfected the wound with spring water and antiseptic. Then he said directly, "Little friend, follow the direction of my hand to treat this wound. Be quick, right here, quick! Very good, this is almost done, let's continue treating this area..."
After nearly half an hour of stitching and mending, Yan Qian's abdomen was finally mostly healed.
Sun Peng's superpowers had been exhausted; his forehead was covered in sweat, and his little face was flushed.
Seeing that Yan Qian was no longer in mortal danger, Zhou Yang quickly stopped the treatment.
Otherwise, if this treatment continues, Yan Qian might not get much better, and the little guy might suffer a backlash due to excessive consumption of his superpowers.
Healing abilities differ from other abilities. If the ability is depleted, it will deplete the user's life force. Therefore, unless necessary, healers will not over-consume their abilities.
"Thank you, little friend. That's enough. Go and rest for a bit."
Zhou Yang patted Sun Peng on the shoulder and then handed him a few level-three crystal cores.
"No need, no need, we have crystal cores on us."
Seeing that the treatment was over, Sun Jing quickly came over to help Sun Peng to rest. However, as soon as she came over, she saw Zhou Yang stuffing several crystal cores into her younger brother's hand and immediately stopped her.
"You saved us before, and we haven't even had a chance to repay you yet. How can we possibly want your crystal core?"
“One thing at a time. This is what your brother deserves. Quickly take him over there to absorb the crystal core and restore his strength. He is still young and should not overexert his powers.”
Zhou Yang insisted on giving the crystal core to Sun Peng, but Sun Jing refused to no avail. In the end, she had no choice but to take her younger brother to rest aside.
After Yan Qian's condition stabilized, Zhou Yang and the others carried him to a place far away from the battlefield, leaving Xu Qingtang and Doctor Liu to take care of him before returning to the battlefield.
The people observing from below had no idea what was going on up there. They could only keep a close eye on the giant octopus's every move, ready to rescue Yan Fei at any moment.
Inside the giant octopus's head, Yan Fei was unaware that his older brother had almost died. He had now successfully entered the giant octopus's brain tissue.
Unlike its hard outer shell, the brain tissue is exceptionally soft, and it can be easily cut open to allow it to pass through.
Yan Fei dug it up easily, but the giant octopus suffered.
The brain was being relentlessly dug out; even the strongest iron couldn't withstand it. It desperately wanted to continue using its tentacles to pull the worms out of its brain, but the moment the tentacles touched the brain tissue, it would convulse in excruciating pain.
So in the end, it could only rely on its tentacles to keep slapping its own head, hoping to kill the worm that had burrowed into its brain.
Unfortunately, although Yan Fei inside also felt the huge tremor, the brain tissue of the giant octopus around him protected him very well, and apart from being a little dizzy, he was not harmed at all.
After climbing for an unknown amount of time, Yan Fei finally found a crystalline core with a diameter of over one meter in the center of the giant octopus's brain.
Because he had been inside the giant octopus's brain for too long, Yan Fei was about to lose his breath. So, without thinking about anything else, he went up and directly severed several nerve lines connecting the giant octopus's brain to the crystal core.
As the nerve chains snapped one by one, the giant octopus began to frantically lash out at everything in its path, including itself, and finally rolled around on the ground like a madman.
Yan Fei inside felt a sudden tremor, knowing that this was the giant octopus's counterattack after he severed the nerve wires. He struggled back to the crystal core and slashed several more times.
The giant octopus only gradually stopped moving after he severed the last nerve cord.
Yan Fei then hurriedly retreated from the giant octopus's brain tissue via the same route, and escaped through the giant octopus's eyes.
The first thing I did upon stepping outside was take a deep breath, and then my eyes immediately went blank.
He was so tired.
It took him nearly thirty minutes to go in and out, and he held his breath for nearly thirty minutes as well. He was also moving around the whole time. If the Guinness World Records still existed, he would definitely have broken one.
Seeing the giant octopus thrashing into the sea and finally lying motionless on its back on the shallow beach, Zhou Yang and the others outside understood that Yan Fei must have succeeded. So they all rushed over and stood on the beach waiting for Yan Fei to come out.
A few minutes later, Yan Fei finally emerged from the octopus's eye, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Yan Fei had been resting on his eyeball for a long time without moving, Zhou Yang and the others became anxious, fearing that he might also be injured, and hurriedly waded through the seawater to get to him.
As soon as he stood under the giant octopus's head, Shen Zechuan shouted upwards, "Yan Fei, how are you? Are you hurt?!"
Upon hearing Shen Zechuan's voice, Yan Fei looked up and saw Shen Zechuan, Zhou Yang, Lu Yanwen, and others standing anxiously below. He quickly replied, "It's nothing, I just held my breath for too long and was constantly being jostled around inside, so it's a bit uncomfortable."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yang and the others were relieved.
After resting for a while and feeling his strength returning, Yan Fei immediately glanced at his other eye, but didn't see his older brother. So he asked, "Where's my older brother? Is he still inside?"
Shen Zechuan shook his head: "No, he came out a long time ago. Come down first and we'll talk."
Upon hearing this, Yan Fei was stunned for a moment, realizing that something must have happened to his older brother. He then decisively got up and jumped down, landing steadily in front of Shen Zechuan and the others.
As soon as they stopped, he asked urgently, "What happened to my older brother? Is he injured? How is he now?"
"He was seriously injured when he was pierced by the tentacles of a giant octopus, but we saved him. Fortunately, there is a healer in Li Mei's team, and he is now out of danger."
"That's good." Yan Fei breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that Yan Qian was out of danger. Then he looked at Zhou Yang and said, "The crystal core in this giant octopus's brain is too big. I couldn't hold my breath any longer, so I came out first. Zhou Yang, can you use the vines to take it out? I don't want to go back in. It's disgusting."
Zhou Yang nodded and directed Xiao Hu to drill into the giant octopus's brain and retrieve the crystal core, which took less than two minutes.
Zhou Yang and the others were stunned as they stared at the enormous, gray crystal core in front of them.
This power-type crystal core is way too big.
It seems Chai Jin won this game without any effort; this one hit should make him a level 6 late-game powerhouse.
Fortunately, this giant octopus was only evolving in power; otherwise, they might not have succeeded so easily.
After putting away the crystal core, Yan Fei turned around and rushed back to check on Yan Qian's injuries.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang and the others quickly followed.
However, as soon as they turned around, another huge commotion came from behind them. Li Mei and the others who were waiting on the shore looked in fear at the direction behind them.
Zhou Yang and the others turned their heads and saw a mutated squid, even larger than a giant octopus, swooping down from the distant sea at an extremely fast speed.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the shallow sea area in front of them.
