Infected at the start and exiled to the City of Strange Species.
Octopus extended its tentacles: What is this? Let's suck it!
Goat extended its hooves: What is this? Let's suck ...
As the oppressive mountain tilted towards her, Gu Li instantly opened her palm, grasped the blood-red longsword, and flew downwards. The longsword swiftly sliced open a section of the tentacles on its approaching abdomen.
A trickle of clear blood soaked her. Gu Li squinted and fled from under it. Based on her years of experience fighting monsters, this was a BOSS with a huge target.
The best way is to keep a distance while flying kites.
However, she had no ranged skills, so she could only fly along its belly with resentment, dodging the attacking tail fins from time to time and cutting off a large number of swaying tentacles.
These things were no threat to the enormous whale. Gu Li blinked, trying to summon something to cover his attack.
Her flight suddenly stopped. What was she about to summon? Gu Li looked at her body. She was familiar, slender, pale, and malnourished, and she was wearing a familiar pumpkin nightgown.
He looks like he could die easily.
The only thing that gave her a sense of security was the bright red longsword in her hand, and she instinctively gripped the hilt tightly with both hands.
A gust of wind swept in from her left. It turned out that the whale had taken advantage of her momentary lapse in attention, turned around, opened its huge mouth full of dense, sharp teeth, and lunged at her.
Gu Li forcibly turned his body in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the attack by grazing those sharp teeth, and then felt the familiar sharp pain coming from the wings on his back.
She somersaulted in mid-air, unable to see what was behind her, but the constant gushing of blood and the unstable flight made her grit her teeth: "Damn it, I forgot about the wings again!"
After the flight speed decreased, Gu Li suffered more and more injuries in the struggle with this thing, and she kept dodging and trying to find its weakness.
That day, the bone whale risked its entire body to save the abscess on its head. Gu Li spun around to avoid the fin that was bigger than her, kicked off, and shot upwards.
The blood that kept spilling from her body formed a conspicuous path on her. The giant whale was indeed uneasy and began to twist its body violently. Countless tentacles stretched out from under its body, trying to trap her.
Gu Li completely ignored the tentacles, and the wings behind her carried her forward, staggering. Her longsword cut off the tentacles wrapped around her feet for what seemed like the umpteenth time.
Her body was still so weak; this short journey had already left her breathless, and a metallic taste gradually rose in her throat.
She couldn't stop; if she hesitated even a second, she would be wrapped up by the relentless tentacles behind her and stuffed into the giant whale's mouth before she could pierce its head.
The air in deep space seemed to become scorching hot. Gu Li blinked hard to squeeze out the physiological tears in her eyes, and her hand wielding the long sword slowed down.
She stared intently at the massive, convex head just a few steps away, and forced herself to take another step forward. Suddenly, her only weapon slipped from her grasp.
She watched helplessly as the bright red thing was wrapped up and dragged away by layers of transparent tentacles, and her heart skipped a beat.
The wounds all over her body, as well as the wounds that had been cut before, began to ache faintly. Gu Li suddenly stopped in despair, her slender figure abruptly swallowed by countless tentacles.
"I see."
Every bone in her body was protesting. In the darkness, Gu Li's eyes widened uncontrollably, yet there was no fear in them. A voice filled with excited laughter came from the cocoon formed by her tentacles.
"It turns out that what has been binding me all along is myself."
Her light golden hair clung to her face, and Gu Li closed her sky-blue eyes slightly, waiting quietly.
"Tick-tock".
Until a drop of blood dripped from the gap in the tentacle, making a barely perceptible sound.
In an instant, all the blood that had just left the body transformed into countless longswords that pierced outwards from the inside. Freed from the restraints of the tentacles, Gu Li softly collapsed to the ground.
The crimson longsword, which had completely detached from her body, transformed back into blood, dripping continuously from mid-air. Gu Li, her eyes filled with excitement, stood up, leaning on the only sword she held.
As long as her wounds continue to bleed, she has countless weapons at her disposal; as long as she remains human, she has countless opportunities to retaliate before she dies.
Then she turned her burning gaze to the giant whale at her feet, her eyes gradually deepening, and the smile on her face becoming increasingly sinister: "Then, if I take back the bone whale that I can control the force field within a meter, my ability will be fully formed."
She strode towards the top of the giant whale, leaning on her longsword. Countless tentacles waving and radiating malice were all pierced and pinned to her body by blood-red daggers.
Gu Li raised his longsword high and forcefully stabbed it into the strangely towering head of the giant whale, feeling as if a resilient jelly was being cut open.
The giant whale cried out in pain and began to thrash and struggle in the air, as Gu Li had deeply inserted an arm into its strange brain and was searching through it.
The feeling of being on the verge of death from excessive blood loss made Gu Li's soul tremble, and her hands searched even more urgently. Where was her uninvited little bone whale?
Suddenly her fingers touched something, and the next second she was thrown away by the violently struggling whale. With its screams as it fell, Gu Li tightly gripped what she was holding and chuckled softly.
She won.
He casually tossed a few balls of white light at himself, and the wounds that had been bleeding from his body gradually healed. Gu Li flapped his newly restored wings and hovered in the endless deep space, holding the bone whale in his hand and observing it for a while.
Just as Mr. Cen said, why shouldn't she take her spoils?
This thing is a perfect match for her. It's inhumane for a fragile healer to always charge into melee combat. With this, she's practically a ranged mage!
