Chapter 164: Use You to Exchange Your Friend's Life
It looked like a giant black octopus, with strong and powerful tentacles extending from its body, entangled and stretching towards the sky, almost completely covering the sky above the school.
The dark sky that Yin Xiu had been seeing was not the real sky, but the light was blocked by the tentacles. The sense of sight that was always lingering came from the eyes on the tentacles.
They have been watching every move of the entire school in the dark. Except for the two monsters left after being killed in the Deep Sea Academy, almost all the rest of the entire copy are part of this monster.
They gazed at the school swaying in the storm on the sea, and at the players in the school.
A huge shadow fell, almost crushing the entire school. The players' figures seemed extremely small in front of the huge monster. It was almost impossible for a human to kill such a huge monster.
The 1.4-meter-long sword looked like it could only penetrate one tentacle, but this monster had many tentacles, each of which was heavy enough to crush a person to death.
Facing the monster's distorted pupils, an invisible pressure descended, causing almost every player to tremble uncontrollably.
It was the instinct to flee from a huge creature that could not resist, or it was submission.
The red pupil was like a huge ball above the teaching building. It stared at the group of players and quickly found Yin Xiu standing in the front of the crowd. When it caught sight of that figure, its pupils shrank slightly and it looked very excited.
But the next second, a stronger and more aggressive feeling of oppression descended, instantly giving all the players goose bumps, as if moisture and coldness were wandering through their bodies, shivering until their chests were cold.
Yin Xiu turned around and glanced at Li Mo, "You can scare it, but don't scare others."
Even Yaya, who was standing next to him, was frightened and trembling. Her little face turned pale as she hugged Yin Xiu's legs, almost crying.
"But..." Li Mo looked at Yin Xiu with a smile, his voice full of gritted teeth, "But it wants to snatch you away from me, and I'm not happy."
"Am I someone that a monster can snatch away so easily?" After Yin Xiu said this, he remembered that his memory seemed to be tampered with and he was really easily affected by monsters.
He reached out and hooked Li Mo's finger, "I promise you, I will kill it right away, and then think of you."
Li Mo looked down at his hooked fingers. It was only a small area of contact, but it made him feel very happy. "Okay."
His boyfriend is indeed not an ordinary boyfriend. Excluding his hardcore memory modification ability, it is not easy to abduct him.
What's more, now his boyfriend is very angry, so angry that the slightest mental influence can't break through his defense at all.
When people are extremely angry, they will not care about anything else and just want to finish the task at hand. What he wants to do most now is to kill this monster.
The back of the hand holding the knife turned pale blue, and the blade trembled in the whistling cold, carrying an extremely strong murderous intent.
"Don't be so angry." The monster sensed Yin Xiu's sharp emotions. Its huge tentacles moved in the air, and a small bubble lingered in the air from its mouth. "I know your friend died and you are sad, but look... what is this?"
In the fragile bubble floating in the air, there is a bright and beautiful blue gem, which looks very much like Ye Tianxuan's eyes.
"The students in this school were all human beings. Anyone who lost their life in this dungeon can now have their bodies controlled by me and their souls collected by me."
"I love collecting beautiful souls, and this one is probably the most beautiful one in my collection. But I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with him."
The tentacles waved, floating the bubbles closer to Yin Xiu. The huge black octopus monster laughed, "His soul is with me. Do you want to save your friend?"
Yin Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly and said nothing.
But the monster continued slowly, "Your friend's death is different from a normal one. His lifespan has run out, but he hasn't reached the point where he should have died. If you get his soul, you can still save him."
"You should...really want this, right?"
The monster's words caught the attention of the players in the town behind him. They exclaimed in astonishment, "Oh right, when we were in Paradise City, Boss Ye had a divination done for him. The stall owner said he had a long lifespan, but he would die in a month. And it's not even a month yet!"
"If the stall owner's prediction is correct... Boss Ye actually has another month to live?"
"But his life span has already..."
"I don't care! There must be a turning point! There must be!" Some people couldn't hold it in anymore while talking.
When everyone was almost certain that Ye Tianxuan was dead, the monster appeared with Ye Tianxuan's soul in his hand as if showing off. Almost in an instant, everyone focused their attention on the soul crystal.
No matter what, we must get him.
After piqued everyone's interest, the monster extended its greedy tentacles towards Yin Xiu. "I know you really want your friend to come back to life. I can give you his soul, but the premise of the exchange is... you must stay."
"You would be willing to exchange your life for your friend's, right?"
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Yin Xiu, and they began to tremble with fear.
This...this monster is too good at calculating people's hearts!
Looking at the tentacles that kept extending towards him, Yin Xiufeng raised his head calmly. He did not answer, but just swiped his right hand towards the air and lightly cut off the tentacle that was extending towards him.
The huge tentacle split open instantly, and the spurting blood was torn apart in the strong wind, revealing Yin Xiu's gloomy eyes behind him.
A dark smile slowly spread across his lips. "What did you just say?"
"You have a lot of...collections?"
The monster was startled, not knowing why he brought this up. "If you want, I have many other souls I've collected for you. As long as you're willing to stay here."
Yin Xiu smiled and shook off the blood on the knife. "Exchange? I, Yin Xiu, never exchange with anyone. The one in your hand now, and everything you have collected, will all be mine."
His constricted pupils were filled with aggression, and every word he spoke was filled with hatred. "I will tear your body apart to see how many souls are inside. I will cut your tentacles into pieces, hollow out your eyes, and let monsters gnaw on your body. I will make you live a life worse than death."
Faced with Yin Xiu's undisguised hostility, the monster slowly retracted its soul and put it back into its mouth.
Its huge pupils stared at Yin Xiu intently. "It seems that I will have no choice but to force you to stay here. Even if it means destroying this copy and you, it doesn't matter. You must stay here."
The wind in the school became colder and the waves on the sea became more violent.
The monster raised its huge tentacles high and slammed them hard towards the group of players.
