It was not until he personally faced this octopus monster, which currently looked like a human, that Taylor truly realized the unfathomable power in his body, the violent yet extremely familiar force of his blood instinct, and the devouring desire that was like an abyss and could never be filled.
Now Squidward is holding a paintbrush and sketching Ghidorah on the drawing board. With every stroke, the mutation in his body will deepen, and he will grow a few more scales, or the spikes on his tail will spread longer.
This is an irreversible process, and Squidward is also using this method to remind Tyler how long he can hold on.
Squidward turned his back to Tyler and, ignoring the strange changes happening to his body, he spoke slowly in a lamenting tone.
"Once there was an octopus who was very hungry. He had been hungry since he was a child. His desire for food or material things was like an abyss that could not be filled. The fish around him discriminated against him, suppressed him, and never took his thoughts into consideration."
"All the other fish think that the octopus is a monster, except for a very kind sponge, who is really like the sun. All the fish like him, including the octopus, because the sponge helped the octopus when he was in the most difficult time. The sponge once told him about his dream of becoming an underwater hamburger chef."
As Squidward spoke, an ambiguous expression appeared on his face, sometimes he was laughing, sometimes he was crying sadly.
"The octopus gradually realized that his desires would make him stronger, so he became more unrestrained and even began to take in mud, sand and soil. Suddenly one day, he started to eat fish. Only then did he find that those fish were so delicious, so tasty, and so coveted by the octopus."
Hearing this, Taylor noticed a pool of highly corrosive transparent liquid, similar to saliva, appeared under Squidward's feet.
fish…………
It should be the kind of wisdom...
Fish spirit?
Squidward ignored Taylor's slightly strange expression and continued talking while drawing.
"The wise yet cold-blooded starfish, the friend of the kind-hearted sponge, discovered the octopus's change and found evidence of the octopus's killing of fish. The octopus was expelled in public. Except for the sponge and the few crabs, whales, lobsters and pufferfish around the sponge who treated the octopus with a neutral attitude, the octopus was greeted with only malice and cold eyes, an evil that suffocated the fish."
Speaking of this, Squidward's paintbrush subconsciously increased the strength, and his teeth chattered, as if he was trying hard to hold down something.
Tear…………
The sides of the brown shorts he was wearing were torn apart, and two heads that looked like dragons and octopuses grew out from Squidward's left and right shoulders, roaring at Taylor with bared fangs and claws, roaring at the top of their lungs.
"Finally, the octopus was favored by the abyss during his wanderings. He lost control. The will of the abyss seemed to have taken a fancy to his terrifying appetite that was like an insatiable abyss. The will of the abyss manipulated him and devoured every fish in his hometown, including starfish, sponges, and so on."
Bloody tears dripped onto the floor. A violent atmosphere surged in the studio. The tears formed by condensed blood also emitted a disgusting bloody smell.
"Finally, the octopus was saved by a man named Ustyr. In exchange, its soul was forever lost in a special witchcraft prop, which constructed an almost real illusion and put all the resentment of the fish into it. The octopus also set up itself with the clown as the center, the starfish who was always ignorant and confused, and the center of the world, the only light, the sun of all fish, SpongeBob."
When SpongeBob's name was spoken, the last barb on the last tail of Squidward's painting was completely outlined. Then, a half-dragon, half-octopus monster with a blood-red mouth, golden scales, eyes wide open, bloodshot, and flowing with blood, tears, and saliva appeared in front of Taylor.
"Hehehe... Mr. Taylor... I've waited for you... Us... Tyr... said... that... my... role... is..."
Squidward, who was already in a state of madness, spoke intermittently the words that the legendary white wizard Ustyr had told him. He felt the rapidly expanding innate power in his body and the beast-like desire to destroy and kill.
“I…can’t…hold…it…anymore…Ahhh…”
After leaving a few words as his last will, Squidward quickly swelled up and turned into a twisted monster with three Ghidorah heads, ten pairs of wings on the lower body, and countless tentacles and suckers wrapped in scales.
Squidward's house was blown up in an instant, and the sky outside had turned bloody. The bloody wind and bloody rain kept howling, and golden lightning swayed among the clouds. Now this place no longer looked like an underwater world, but more like a world trapped in doomsday.
Taylor raised his head and looked at the disaster-like scene outside with calm eyes. He shook his head with a hint of regret and muttered to himself.
"Actually, I've always wanted to know why there is no Mr. Krabs in this world. Maybe Mr. Krabs has been eaten by you..."
"An octopus whose entire life has been dominated by desire. If that's the case, then this monster must be the real hidden danger in my body."
Filled with gratitude towards Squidward and the desire to liberate him completely, Tyler's body slowly floated up. He had perfectly switched from a fish to his human form. Seven-pointed stars were circling around his wrists, head, waist, and feet. A huge seven-pointed star formation spread out with it as the center, and the light of the seven-pointed stars was everywhere within a radius of one kilometer.
Then, the light of the seven-pointed star switched from gold to blue. This was the flow of spatial power. The octopus dragon monster in the sky vaguely saw countless worlds and countless spaces appearing behind Taylor. Even now, these spaces were shrinking rapidly, turning into drops of water and merging into the river of space. A psychedelic river slowly emerged here.
“Roar, roar, roar!!!”
The monster roared loudly, then spewed gravity rays from its mouth, and the scaly tentacles behind it rushed towards Taylor like straight spears. Taylor just sighed slightly, stretched out his hand to grasp the space river behind him, and tied up the octopus monster like a chain.
"Space World Cut!"
