Chapter 361: Conflict!

“Ah!”

The casual Scout player let out a scream of panic! His entire body had already been brought above the sky tunnel by the brown tentacle, held by his waist by suction cups!

Even though it was just a game, the sensation was astounding. Being hung high in the air at 100 meters above the ground and rapidly, uncontrollably pulled backward in a game with such high simulation level was a feeling that was still traumatizing! More importantly, this situation had happened so suddenly, and the speed of withdrawal of the Giant Octopus’s tentacle was too fast. Having already been dragged over 10 meters, he was too far away. The players on the platform couldn’t react in time to attack and save him!

Except, that is, for a sniper bullet encircled by streaks of blue electrical current!

Ping!

−3333

−877

A scorching C-grade explosive armor-piercing bullet caught up with the Giant Octopus Commander’s tentacle wrapped around the casual Scout player in front of the hole, hitting the fleshy tentacle where it was wrapped around his waist!

Boom!

The point of contact between the bullet and the tentacle instantly exploded into tiny flames, and a layer of sizzling electrical current appeared on the tentacle due to the activated Rare attribute of the Eye of the Thunder!

At the same time, a weak-point damage prompt indicating over 4,000 damage flashed across Feng Luo’s vision!

“A weak=point damage?”

Feng Luo froze. The shot had hit at the end of the tentacle. It was actually weak-point damage? And furthermore, the damage was pretty high!

However, against the Giant Octopus’s slimy tentacle, the blazing effect of the explosive armor-piercing bullet was insignificant. Even the Eye of the Thunder’s Electric Shock “numbing” effect proved futile against the octopus Commander!

Even Feng Luo’s extremely powerful shot—regardless in terms of reaction speed or precision—wasn’t enough to stop the tentacle dragging the unlucky Scout player into the black hole.

“Old K!”

The Fire Manipulator player finally regained his senses; with a wave of the Energy Converter in his hand, a stream of bowl-sized blazing “Chain Fireballs” flew into the huge hole!

Ping, ping!

At the same time, Watermelon Skin and Skynet fired their sniper rifles! But just like before, after grasping for its “food,” the Giant Octopus Commander ignored the attacks as if they were scratches, indicating no reaction whatsoever.

Furthermore, after three seconds, a faint white light of death emerged from deep inside the hole!

******

“What’s going on?! The platform is an entire 30 meters from there. That infected Octopus Commander’s tentacle can actually reach all the way here!”

Seeing that the Scout player had died—completely powerless to retaliate—everyone’s face turned grim. Collectively, they fled from the side of the platform closest to the hole, all retreating to the rear edge of the platform beside the VIP zone!

“It can reach its tentacle and attack all the way here from inside the main building! How do we stand against it?”

Everyone was aware that they would probably be unable to avoid battling this Giant Octopus Commander and its outstanding HP, but their chances of triumph seemed somewhat hopeless.

After all, this fellow was far from the platform; if it were to attack, it would have to crawl over. That gap was the biggest opportunity for everyone to act. However, who could have anticipated that this Giant Octopus Commander’s tentacle would actually be able to stretch further than expected and drag someone straight off of the platform from the main building?!

“Its tentacle is able to stretch and be withdrawn, then become thin and stretch long!”

Feng Luo held the Eye of the Thunder that had just fired. His expression was grave.

The others hadn’t seen how the Giant Octopus Commander had stretched its tentacle all the way here, but Feng Luo had seen it clearly due to his enhanced vision.

After stretching to a limit of over 10 meters, the tentacle, covered in fleshy suction cups, actually continued to lengthen as it violently shot out, stretching to nearly 40 meters and ultimately grabbing the casual Scout player!

A few thoughts rapidly flashed across Feng Luo’s mind.

Is it because it evolved after being infected? Or is it because it already had such an ability? And is 40 meters the limit? Could it actually reach its tentacle all the way to us here?

But the bullet just now had clearly hit the front section of its tentacle, and the system prompted that it caused weak-point damage. Plus, the damage actually exceeded 4,000 with the Rare attribute of the Eye of the Thunder activated! It seems very likely that since the octopus, as a soft-bodied organism, is set in the system to be unlike typical land organisms, which have hard shells or fur for defense. Maybe hitting any part of its body will cause high weak-point damage!

If that’s really the case, then this fellow actually shouldn’t be as hard to face as we imagined! Hmm. The possibility is at least above 70 percent… If not, 300,000 HP to a Commander monster is over the top!

In a short few seconds, Feng Luo’s thoughts reached another conclusion.

“Brother Feng, what do we do? Fight it?”

Just then, My World and Steel Fortress, who had already changed into the equipment given by Feng Luo, looked toward Feng Luo.

“Fight! Fight right now!”

“We first use long-range attacks to lure it out, then use ‘Shield Bash’ to draw its aggro. Then we just have to cause enough damage so it wouldn’t be able to stay in there!”

Feng Luo raised his head and looked through the scope of the Eye of the Thunder. Behind the black enhanced glass, the silhouette of the Giant Octopus Commander still could not be seen! However, since he now knew that this octopus wasn’t as remarkable as they’d first thought, there was no need to delay any longer.

But Feng Luo was worried about one thing: the fact that the attributes of this octopus Commander had been seen by the scope to have prompted “evolution in progress.”

If it wasn’t quickly finished off—if it got lucky and evolved into a Quasi-Boss—there could be no doubt that the people on the platform would be wiped out, including the three NPCs!

But just then, a voice suddenly spoke up.

“No, I disagree with this plan!”

Naturally, the one to go against others was the North City Scout player.

When everyone on Feng Luo’s side stared at him disapprovingly, he looked back with condescension in his eyes. “Using a long-range attack to lure this octopus Commander out,” he said mockingly. “Not only is this method troublesome, but it also risks having the attackers become targets of its tentacles. That’s quite dangerous! No one can guarantee that this plan will work. If someone dies again… Hehe!”

The Scout player laughed coldly, glancing at everyone.

“Actually, there’s no need to go through such trouble. Considering what happened before, this Giant Octopus Commander could actively attack and grab people after a period of time. We then just have to leave some bait at the front of the platform. When it grabs people the next time, we can jump at the chance to engage in an attack!”

“Let someone be bait? Isn’t that placing all the risk on one person?” said My World, who had changed into the five-piece Thunder equipment set. He looked at him coldly. “Who do you want to be the bait then? Your people, or…?”

The two remaining casual players’ faces changed upon hearing the words.

“No… I won’t try to deceive anyone. Have you forgotten? There are still three troublesome NPCs in there, quite suitable for being used as bait… In that case, since you’re all so persistent about doing the mission, there’s no need to be concerned about everyone’s safety, right?”

The Scout player had a self-satisfied but sinister smile as he used his eyes to signal toward the VIP zone at the side!

Bang!

Just as he finished speaking, a high-velocity sniper bullet brushed past his face. Its scorch made him feel as if his face had been hit by it!

“I’ll only say it once,” said Feng Luo. “Don’t let me hear such words again. If not, the next bullet will not be a miss!”

Feng Luo’s tone was ice cold—this time, he was really enraged.

If the four people weren’t there, finishing off this octopus Commander would be practically impossible. If it was possible for everyone to have been wiped out in the end, perhaps this explosive armor-piercing bullet would have already struck Scout’s forehead!

“You actually attacked me?!”

The Scout player’s face initially showed his self-satisfaction, bullying My World and the others by suggesting a “perfect plan.” In the end, this shot of Feng Luo’s had made a fool out of him during his big moment.

As an outsider, he didn’t know anything about My World, Skynet, or the others protecting the three NPCs. They were actually here more because of Feng Luo than for the mission. Making such a plan at such a time was actually looking for one’s own death!

“F*ck! Damn it!”

But right after, he regained his senses. The Scout’s face became extremely enraged, and he violently raised the sci-fi submachine gun in his hands to point it at Feng Luo!

Bang!

But the moment his submachine gun was raised, another scorching bullet, encircled by streaks of electrical current, struck his right hand at the submachine gun trigger.

Pai!

The powerful force caused his hand, which was initially about to pull the trigger, to be knocked back, and the sci-fi version submachine gun muzzle was violently knocked out of aim!

Although it wasn’t easy for players to suffer from the damaging effect of being attacked, some attack effects were unaffected. Unfortunately, this bullet had actually activated the Eye of the Thunder’s special attribute once again!

Crack!

A streak of bluish-white electrical current covered his right arm, spreading through his entire body in an instant.

With a pai, he loosened his grip on the sci-fi submachine gun in his hands, dropping it onto the ground!
