Chapter 106
When the players collapsed, the cold voice of the little octopus sounded:
"Where is my treasure? Which of you has it hidden on?"
The players' bodies tensed instantly, and they slowly raised their heads with stiff necks, facing the small transparent octopus that had appeared on the ceiling at some point in time.
"ah!!!"
A scream was heard, and even as the players used their special abilities and props to attack, the little octopus continued to move towards them at a leisurely pace.
The tentacles grew larger and larger. Under the players' incredible gazes, the little octopus waved countless tentacles and tied them up one by one.
Several players with the strongest treasure aura were hung upside down in the air by the little octopus.
The player's head was filled with blood, his face turned red, and he was coughing madly due to lack of oxygen.
“Help, help!”
"It's not me! It's really not me. I haven't seen your treasure!"
When the players were at their wits' end, some even began to frame their companions.
"It must be Qiu Ke! He is the strongest among us! He is A-level, only he can secretly replace the treasure under our noses!"
The other players reacted and looked at Qiu Ke.
"Qiuke! Is that you?"
"I beg you, if you have it, please give it to him quickly!"
Qiu Ke was almost going crazy, his expression was extremely ferocious, he grabbed the octopus tentacle on his neck and couldn't help coughing a few times.
"I really didn't take it! I was the farthest away from the treasure box at that time! When I got there, hadn't you already taken the treasure out?"
Players began to recall what happened at that time frame by frame.
Although Qiu Ke is the strongest, he is right.
He was the farthest away at that time, and all the other players saw that the treasure was an energy bead, so Qiu Ke came over.
"That's Xiao Xia! He got the treasure box first!"
The players just want to survive. At this time, they no longer care about the friendship of their companions. They just want to pass on the blame first!
The little octopus had become impatient and waved its tentacles, throwing several people against the cabin wall.
After just a few collisions, blood began to seep from the players' heads.
"In that case, you all might as well die!"
Just as the octopus's tentacles were tightening little by little, Qiu Ke found an opportunity and used his special powers to burn the octopus's eyes.
The little octopus subconsciously closed its eyes and dodged. When it looked back, these players had already used advanced escape props to teleport to another place in the cabin.
The little octopus was very annoyed and kept slamming its tentacles against the cabin.
These players are as slippery as fish!
No, they are harder to catch than those fish!
***
Xingnuo poked his head out of the sea again, with wet golden hair, and pointed at the big ship not far away.
There seemed to be sounds of fierce fighting on the boat. The boat did not move forward and just floated quietly on the sea.
Several mermaids approached the boat silently.
Osi, the most powerful one in the tribe, raised his shell knife and threw it lightly, and it just got stuck on the railing of the boat.
A rope made of seaweed hung down, and the mermaids climbed onto the boat with their strong arm strength in just a few breaths.
Xingnuo was simply stunned by this scene. He raised his head eagerly, his eyes full of admiration.
When Ossi saw the little mermaid's admiration, he couldn't help but straighten his chest and show off a little.
Xingnuo was the last to go up. He was tied to a seaweed rope and was pulled up without much effort.
Xingnuo thanked him obediently, untied the seaweed rope, turned his head to look at the dilapidated deck with obvious traces of fighting, and couldn't help holding his breath.
I don’t know where the little octopus is.
The mermaids can feel the breath of their companions. They open their mouths and use sound waves that are inaudible to human ears, which spread throughout the entire ship.
Basement on board.
The wounded mermaid barely woke up for a moment, and when she heard the sound waves of the mermaid tribe, she thought she had misheard.
But even if I heard it wrong, it's fine.
At the end of life, being able to die listening to the voices of your companions is also a good choice.
Before the mermaid fell into coma, he used his last bit of strength to chant a voice that belonged only to him.
The monster, who was resting with his eyes closed, felt the spread of that mental power and couldn't help but widen his eyes suddenly.
"What are you doing!"
The only monster left alive in the cabin was guarding the mermaid greedily like a hyena.
The blood of the mermaids contains spiritual energy. The monsters cut their skin one by one, trying to obtain long-term energy from the two mermaids.
But now the monster's companions are basically dead, and the other mermaid has been exchanged to humans.
With only this dying mermaid left, the monster stuck out its scarlet tongue, licked its lips, and there was uncontrollable greed in its eyes.
Just eat him directly!
However, mermaids have strong temperaments. Once a monster is determined to kill them, they will take the lead in destroying their own spiritual energy and become useless fish.
Even if the monster swallows the mermaid, it will be of no use.
Thinking of this, the monster could only hold back and cut the mermaid's tail with a special knife.
on deck.
The mermaids were all excited when they heard the sound waves from their own kind.
“Still alive!”
"Great, it's Qingning's voice!"
Xingnuo had no idea what the mermaids were so excited about, but that didn't stop him from being happy for them.
With a frown on his face, Xingnuo jumped on the deck with his tail, trying to get into the cabin to find the little octopus.
Almost two days have passed. I wonder if the little octopus has found the treasure.
The mermaids also followed carefully, surrounded the little mermaid, and came to the cabin door.
The mermaids cautiously peeked inside the door, only to sense a variety of chaotic smells.
Ossi keenly smelled a hint of something unusual and his eyes suddenly widened.
"It's that octopus monster at the bottom of the sea!"
"I'm definitely not wrong! I've fought that octopus before!"
Moreover, the aura that is unique to SSS+ level high-level monsters is terrifying and oppressive, and it is impossible to misidentify it!
Osi grabbed Xingnuo's small body as he jumped forward and held him tightly behind him.
Xingnuo didn't understand, so he raised his little face to look at Osi and made a gesture with many tentacles.
"I'm going to look for the little octopus."
Xingnuo was worried about the little octopus, fearing that he would be bullied by the monsters and humans on the ship.
It's so small, what if it gets caught and roasted?
Osi understood what Xingnuo meant, and he couldn't help but look at his companion with a serious look.
Could it be that the pet octopus that Xingnuo had previously raised was the same giant octopus that once lived in the sea? !
But, it’s obvious that the body shapes don’t match?
The mermaids looked wary and alert, and they pulled Xingnuo to stop him from going any further.
Xingnuo had a soft personality and stopped good-temperedly, looking at the mermaids with a questioning look in his eyes.
"Why don't you leave?"
Don't you want to save the mermaid and the little octopus?
The mermaids had no way of communicating with Xingnuo, so they could only whisper to each other and discuss solutions.
"That octopus is most likely an SSS+ level monster from the bottom of the ocean. We can't just go in there."
"The remains of several monsters fell on the ground. The octopus monster may have killed quite a few monsters."
"Will our fellow mermaids also be in its hands?"
The mermaids didn't know the situation inside and didn't dare to rush in.
They carefully hid at the door, and the next second, a group of miserable human players appeared out of nowhere.
Although the teleportation item can instantly access and control high-level monsters, its disadvantage is that the teleportation location is random.
Players just have to pray to teleport farther away and never teleport directly to the bottom of the sea.
As a result, when the player looked up, he was faced with a group of aggressive mermaids.
Player:! ! !
"You... mermaids?!"
"They are really mermaids! Why are there so many of them?!"
Before the players had time to get excited, they felt the mermaid's powerful mental strength the next second. Exhausted, they immediately calmed down and gave in.
"Well, we have no ill intentions!"
The mermaid looked at these players coldly, and when she sensed the aura of her fellow mermaids on them, her attitude suddenly became extremely bad.
Ossi put the sharp knife against the human's neck and spoke threateningly:
"Have you seen Qingning and Yueou?! Where are they being held captive?"
"And the octopus?"
Unfortunately, humans and mermaids don't speak the same language. After a long conversation, the A-level player took out another high-level item.
Language translation conch.
The conch can automatically convert different languages into understandable words, and the players finally understood that the mermaids were coming to rescue their fellow mermaids.
Qiu Ke has always been the leader of the players. Although the players are scattered internally, he still stood up and wanted to seek cooperation with the mermaid tribe.
"We just want to spend seven days safely on the ship. We have absolutely no ill intentions! We know where the other mermaid is being held, and we can help lead the way for you!"
Osi knew that human players always had some very strange things in their hands, so he was not too surprised to hear the sound coming from the conch.
"What is your purpose? What do you want to get from us?"
Qiu Ke did not shy away from stating his request:
"We help you rescue the mermaid from the monster, and you give us the mermaid's tears."
The mermaids sneered, "You are so arrogant. Even without your guidance, we can find Qingning's location!"
Qiu Ke was very calm. He turned his eyes and saw the short golden-tailed Xingnuo in the crowd, and he paused.
Xingnuo clenched his fists, worried about the little octopus, and asked softly:
"Big brother, have you seen my little octopus? It's only this small, very small, and will definitely be bullied by the monster."
Xingnuo gestured to the size of his palm, tilted his head back, and looked at Qiu Ke expectantly with his wet little eyes.
Qiu Ke was surprised that Xingnuo could speak human language, but after listening to what he said, he remained silent with a twitching mouth.
"Are you sure your little octopus will be bullied by monsters?"
It was clearly the little octopus that caught the monsters and beat them up!
Does the little mermaid have any filter for the octopus? !
Xingnuo nodded with a sincere look, and was really worried about the little octopus.
"The little octopus lost a very important treasure, and he said he wanted to get it back. Big brother, did you take it? Stealing is not a good thing. Please return the treasure to the little octopus."
The little octopus said that the thieves were a few humans. There were only these few players on the boat, so it went without saying that the treasure must have been stolen by these people.
After hearing this, Qiu Ke just remained silent. Finally, he sighed and slapped his forehead in pain.
"The situation is very complicated. The treasure we got is not the same thing as the one the monster dropped."
They now also want to return the treasure and then quickly complete the mission.
But the question is, who is hiding the treasure now? !
