Coveted After Becoming a Monster [Quick Transmigration] 74

Chapter 74:

The rock under the tentacles cracked. Under the immense force, limestone kept falling, dripping into the lava.

“Caw!”

A tragic bird cry suddenly appeared. The strange bird that had just been dragged into the lava was the first to rush out.

Its appearance was even more miserable than before. Half of its wing was soaked in lava, and the scorching liquid kept dripping down. The most terrifying thing was its left head, which was completely caved in, as if it had been eroded and decayed by the high temperature, and it was even more terrifying.

Perhaps because of the pain, its voice was even more tragic and sharp, one after another, making one’s eardrums hurt.

—Rumble.

At the same time, the tentacles at the volcano’s mouth climbed up the edge one by one. Then, with a hard pull, they directly pulled themselves out of the lava.

The crack was bigger, and rocks were falling down. In the incomparably dazzling firelight, a deep-sea behemoth appeared.

It was bigger than before. Its tentacles stretched out and hooked the edge of the volcano, and its enormous body almost covered the entire volcano. It was unclear if it was because it had fallen into the lava before, but its color was deeper, and even its previously azure eyes had dimmed.

An inexplicable sense of oppression surged out like a tide, heavily smashing into everyone. It was already difficult to breathe due to the high temperature, and now it was even more difficult.

“This, what is this monster?” An uninformed person muttered to himself. In his fear, his legs actually went weak, and he fell directly onto the scorching ground.

“This, what tier is this?”

No one dared to give an answer. This creature had already exceeded their imagination.

Cheng Xi and the others swallowed their non-existent saliva, and a knife-like pain came from their dry throats.

They finally knew how the Thirteenth District had defeated the darkness in the sea.

They were also shocked that they had actually wanted to cooperate with such a monster.

Their guts were really big.

Cheng Xi’s lips opened and closed, and they were already chapped and peeling. She didn’t know what to say. Fortunately, she still had a sliver of worry, and she quickly went to find her Silver Feather.

But she saw Silver Feather prostrate on the ground. A perfectly fine crow had actually turned into a reptile, and it didn’t even dare to flap its wings.

In her shock and fear, a white mist spread out, but because of the scorching temperature, the white mist was not as thick as in the sea. It was a thin layer that did not affect their vision, but it made the two monsters on that side look even more terrifying and strange.

It was as if they were seeing a mirage from the ancient century, and it was hard to imagine that this was a scene that was really happening in front of them.

And silently, the poison had already invaded their bodies. Even though the octopus had not deliberately targeted them, and had even restrained herself a little, their heads were still slightly heavy, and an inexplicable sleepiness came over them.

But the octopus did not pay any attention. Her eyes swept over and landed in the nest of huge rocks.

Seeing that Ji Yulin’s expression had relaxed a little, and her eyes were still fixed on this side, the tentacles on the volcano’s mouth moved, but she restrained herself and just blinked at Ji Yulin.

This scene was inexplicably comical. It was clearly a strange and terrifying big creature, but it was making such a childish action.

Ji Yulin’s expression changed, as if she had realized something, and she immediately pounced at the exit of the huge rock.

“It’s you… you don’t want to…”

Just then, the strange bird had already pounced at the octopus. Its eyes were full of resentment, and its expression was malicious. It no longer cared about Silver Feather on that side and rushed over almost frantically.

“Caw!”

An invisible sound wave shook out like a water wave, crashing into everyone. The ordinary people on that side immediately had blood coming out of their ears and were sent flying more than a meter.

Cheng Xi and the others were also not well. It was as if their internal organs were all shaken, and their faces instantly turned as pale as paper.

[Get lost!]

In the next second, the octopus let out a roar, and her stone-pillar-like tentacles pounced and pulled at the other.

The pain caused by the strange bird suddenly eased a little.

But before everyone could be happy, they saw that the volcano had suddenly shaken, and lava was spewing out.

[Hmph.]

The octopus let out a muffled groan and actually used her body to block the lava. The tentacles that were going up grabbed the bird’s leg and threw it at the empty space.

The strange bird was thrown halfway and quickly flapped its wings to dodge. It turned its head and pecked at the octopus again.

A tentacle dodged, and with a backhand, it whipped over like a whip. Where the tentacle passed, the mist was actually dispersed, and the space was distorted.

The strange bird quickly fled, and the tentacle grazed past the bird’s body, and with a roar, it smashed into the ground. In an instant, black ash churned, and a ten-meter-long strip-shaped hollow appeared in the distance.

“Caw caw.”

The creature was so scared that its head shrank, and it wanted to take this opportunity to flap its wings and peck.

The octopus quickly dodged, but she saw that the strange bird was still pouncing in that direction as if it couldn’t stop. After its abdomen was close to the ground, it suddenly flapped its wings and flew up, and rushed straight forward for more than twenty meters. With no time to delay, it wanted to flap its wings and run again.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they belatedly realized that this creature was trying to run away because it knew it couldn’t win.

And at the volcano’s mouth, the lava was blocked by the huge body, and only a little was exposed in the cracks. The fiery red lava made the suckers look even more ferocious.

But at the location of the original Eighth District, someone suddenly knelt down toward that side.

The exit was crowded with people, and it was completely blocked. They couldn’t move an inch in ten minutes, and the number of people who had died from being trampled was countless.

In this desperate situation, everyone couldn’t help but stare at the volcano, and they saw the beginning and end of this battle clearly.

When one person knelt down, countless people imitated.

They all put their hands together and murmured prayers.

Catching a wisp of the fragmented words, the word “god” could be faintly heard.

They called the octopus a god.

The black clouds were heavier, and the dawn was nowhere to be seen. She only knew that the oxygen in the surrounding air was getting thinner, and only the thick and uncomfortable smell of sulfur was left.

Seeing that the strange bird was about to escape fifty meters, the octopus, who had been played with, let out an extremely angry roar.

[You mangy bird!]

A tentacle instantly stretched out, and it was impossible to see clearly with the naked eye. She could only see a white light flash before her eyes, and in the end, it grabbed the bird’s leg and pulled the creature back, and like a rag, it was thrown to the ground with force.

—Bang!

After the loud noise, the strange bird quickly got up and desperately ran elsewhere. In this time, it was as if it were coughing, and it kept spitting out fire from its throat.

A tentacle swung down, and with a heavy blow.

The flat ground was hard, and two bird-shaped deep pits appeared, and lava was seeping in.

The strange bird cried out even more tragically, and without any regard, it bit at the octopus’s tentacles, with the meaning of fighting to the death since it couldn’t escape.

A tentacle dodged, and she switched to a tentacle covered in colorful scales.

A sharp bird beak pecked at the scales, and sparks actually flew. The tip of the beak was faintly black, as if it were poisoned.

Seeing this, the strange bird did not dare to do this again and quickly flapped its wings to a high place.

Everyone’s heart immediately tightened.

Although the octopus was huge, there was a limit to how far her tentacles could stretch. She couldn’t compare to a strange bird that could keep flying up. If she let it escape like this, wouldn’t there be endless trouble?

But before their worries could dissipate, they saw a black bird rush over, and its bird claws grabbed at the other.

“Silver Feather!” Cheng Xi immediately shouted.

Caught off guard, the crow knocked the strange bird down.

In the middle, it was restless again, wanting to peck at the creature’s eye, but it was bitten by the other and a few feathers were pulled out. It had already bitten off a lot before, and now it was even balder. A patch of its abdomen was empty, and it was both pitiful and amusing.

“Caw caw!”

It cried out tragically, but its falling speed did not stop. A tentacle stretched out and grabbed the bird, and with even more force, it went down.

Seeing this, Silver Feather tried to try again but was entangled by another tentacle and was thrown away. And the other tentacles directly stretched out and tied the strange bird back to its original place.

Then, a deep blue eye swept over Silver Feather, and the oppressive words sounded again.

[If you make any more trouble, I’ll deal with you too.]

Hearing this, Silver Feather, who had been in a panic before, actually did not hide at first. Instead, she cawed twice with great unwillingness, as if she were arguing about something.

But the moment the deep blue eye swept over, it hugged its head and dodged. The courage that had just appeared from its greed was gone, and it could not raise a single thought of resistance.

But for some reason, although it had already dodged, the image of it fighting to the death and dragging the other into the volcanic lava several times flashed before its eyes.

Covered in scars, mutual destruction.

A hint of confusion flashed in the bird’s eyes, as if the long river of fate had been artificially reversed, and the creature in it had sensed something but was powerless to break free.

The octopus gave it a steady look, as if she found it interesting, and suddenly said, [You’re a little interesting.]

The moment she finished speaking, a tentacle grabbed the strange bird’s wing, and with a hard pull, she tore off a section and threw it at Silver Feather.

The crow showed a look of surprise and immediately pounced at the bird’s wing.

And the strange bird was in so much pain that it cried out. Under its serious injuries, it was even more frantic. It no longer cared about anything and just desperately grabbed and bit at the octopus.

The struggle before death was the most difficult to deal with. Because it had already given up all reason and hope of survival, and was only frantically wanting to kill the other. Even if it couldn’t perish with it, it had to make the octopus suffer a little.

Flames and lava spewed from its throat, and it cried out one after another, and all kinds of tricks were used.

Even the people far away couldn’t take it and repeatedly spat out blood, let alone the octopus who was close.

But it refused to let go. Its tentacles churned, and like a snake’s strangulation, it held it tightly between its tentacles, and little by little, it pulled it toward the volcano’s mouth.

At this moment, it was tense. The lava in the volcano’s mouth spewed out and was then blocked. At the edge, even the rocks were ignited.

The white mist grew heavier, and it swirled around the top of the volcano, half-covering the giant-pillar-like tentacles. The strange bird, covered in fire, was struggling, and the scene was even more strange and mysterious.

In the Eighth District, more and more people were kneeling on the ground, their expressions more and more devout.

Did no one really see that the octopus was just a powerful mutated beast?

No, it was just that in their despair, the octopus had become their only hope.

The strange bird was pulled to the edge of the volcano, and the body that was being held down moved a little, and a large amount of lava immediately spewed out. Looking at the bottom of its body, there were cracks from burns everywhere, and the smell of meat was even stronger.

The strange creature struggled even more but could not resist the pull of the tentacles and fell into the volcano.

“Caw!”

It let out a final, terrified and desperate bird cry.

The familiar scorching heat did not appear, but was replaced by the octopus’s devouring.

Suddenly, a clap of thunder sounded, and the dark sky was actually split open by a bolt of lightning. A bright light surged out and landed on the octopus. The burns on her body were continuous, and she looked very painful, but her expression was calm. She silently looked at Ji Yulin, who was desperately running toward her.

To push away the huge rock that was blocking her, the person had used a lot of strength. Now her hair was disheveled, and her forehead was sweating. Her clothes were stained with black ash, and she was in a very wretched state.

The octopus stared at her silently, as if she were saying “long time no see,” and as if she were showing an incomparably longing expression.

“Li, Li An,” Ji Yulin, who had been running desperately, was panting. Although she was saying the same name, she was calling it with a different feeling.

The octopus’s eyes softened a little, and with her cleanest tentacle, she brushed past Ji Yulin’s cheek and called out in a low voice, [Professor.]

[This time, it’s really goodbye.]

Ji Yulin showed a panicked expression, and immediately grabbed it, and said quickly, “Where are you going?”

The octopus did not answer, just stared at her. A harsh machine sound suddenly appeared in her mind, like a computer that had been infected with a virus, messy and lagging.

[Mission complete… mission failed…]

[Memory… memory transfer…]

Li An’s head was as if it had been pricked by a needle, and a sharp pain suddenly arose, followed by a strange sentence.

Darkness, darkness is mine…

It’s my heart.

I only have one heart left.

The sky grew colder, and the heavy rain suddenly fell. The previously incomparably powerful octopus suddenly died like a lamp, and quickly fell, blocking the volcano’s mouth.

Is it dead?

This sentence suddenly popped into everyone’s mind.
