…
Just a three-star magus golem, yet it managed to block the impact of the tentacle!
The demon beast’s eyes glowed brighter with red light.
It seemed to see a trace of “Huhu” from this “Moebius Worm.”
But compared to “Huhu,” the “Moebius Worm” undoubtedly possessed a completely different nature of ability.
The “1” floating above its head might be some kind of status overlay marker or perhaps a warning of its limit.
The demon beast did not understand this.
However, currently, the “Moebius Worm” seemed much more useful than it had imagined.
So even if it returned immediately now, there should be no problem, right?
Glancing sideways at Wit who was still vomiting and the other two, the corners of the demon beast’s mouth curled up involuntarily.
“Three废物!”
It sneered inwardly, pride gradually overflowing.
…
After retracting, the tentacle observed for just a few seconds before revealing its ferocity again, launching a second assault.
But like before, the force built up instantly dissipated, becoming weak and limp. Its eight petals opened limply, saliva dripping down.
It recoiled its “head” once again out of fear.
Seeing this, the demon beast turned its back on Wit and the others, raising its hand in a “bye-bye” gesture. Its large figure vanished from their sight without any warning!
…
The demon beast’s towering and robust body should have been like a solid wall protecting them, providing a constant sense of security.
Thus, its sudden disappearance caused unexpected panic.
It was akin to the city’s protective walls suddenly collapsing, leaving no barrier between humans and beasts, causing immediate panic.
“Where did it go?” Robert couldn’t help but panic.
Emma was calmer, but after her gaze swept over every corner without finding the demon beast, her expression finally began to crack.
“It might have gone back; there was a tentacle over there…”
“We can’t hesitate anymore, carry Wit up!”
“If you don’t want to prematurely end this dungeon adventure, run!” Emma gritted her teeth and whispered to Robert.
Robert’s mind was still a mess, but based on trust in the smart student, he instinctively followed Emma’s instructions.
“Gag—”
Wit vomited again and said forcefully, “No need to help me, I can walk!”
Robert was very strong in critical moments. Judging that Wit couldn’t walk normally, he ignored him and supported his right arm, running.
Seeing them start moving, Emma also started running immediately.
In fact, among the trio, her physical condition was the weakest. Her legs were almost uncontrollable, but she clenched her teeth and held on.
To boost morale, she said sternly, “Faster, although we don’t know the limit, the length of the tentacle must be finite. As long as we run fast enough, we can escape its range.”
Robert felt hope, and indeed, his motivation doubled. Running with Robert, they even surpassed Emma.
Soon…
The trio escaped to where they had previously fled. The traces left here made them slightly relax.
Wit leaned against the wall and turned around, panting, “No sound, it doesn’t seem to be chasing us?”
Robert listened carefully and couldn’t help but say, “It seems so. Have we escaped?”
Emma, supporting her knees, gasped for a while and then said, “I don’t know, but this place isn’t safe. We need to run further.”
Robert mumbled, “Should be fine? The previous tentacle retreated here.”
Wit echoed, “Its movement was quite noticeable. If it really came, we would definitely feel it.”
“You!” Emma couldn’t help but get angry, but there was nothing she could do.
Suddenly, an extremely harsh wave of sound rushed into their ears like a tidal wave.
“What’s that sound?”
Wit let out a terrible scream.
The sound was similar to the noise when nails scratch glass.
Once it entered their ears, it felt like something was scratching inside their heads, making their entire heads feel like they would explode.
Wit tried to cover his ears, but it didn’t help much.
Robert and Emma were also affected, pain clearly visible on their faces.
Fortunately, it didn’t last long.
When the three felt their heads about to burst, the sound from the abyss abruptly stopped.
Then everything went silent.
There wasn’t a single sound except for their breathing.
Unconsciously, the three hugged their heads and crouched on the ground.
—
On the other side.
Dark acted immediately after the imp beast returned.
As mentioned earlier, he knew little about Rose’s “Moebius Worm” and couldn’t judge whether it could block the second tentacle that appeared.
To give Wit and the others more space to escape, he attacked the first tentacle again!
The combo of “Huhu” + [Magical Beast: Eevee] + “Demon Beast” had already given him a clearer understanding of the overall strength of the first tentacle.
Using this as a benchmark, he roughly calculated.
The attack power of that tentacle should be over 4000, but not too much higher.
Its defense power was also around 3000.
Overall, it was close to an eight-star magus golem—but this was only one tentacle!
If there was only this one tentacle, Dark would not hesitate to defeat it here.
But the newly appeared second tentacle had already shown the terror of that abyssal creature.
If not for the trio, he wouldn’t have attacked it further.
However, once the decision was made, Dark didn’t hesitate.
After the demon beast returned, he immediately summoned a new partner—Mana Nightmare Demon!
With the light of the Mana Nightmare Demon’s magus card, this newly created magus golem was summoned by Dark.
“Yomimi—”
As a manifestation of “Bliss,” the Mana Nightmare Demon immediately started rubbing against Dark’s face.
Dark awkwardly pulled it away and then flipped to the next magus card—”Bliss III”!
A three-star magus golem with limited mana reserves in its chest gem had limited use in direct combat.
But once it successfully evolved, it would instantly become a nightmare on the battlefield!
Dark’s movements were quick.
Diana and Rose were still immersed in the cuteness of the Mana Nightmare Demon when they were struck by another kind of cute with a cold edge.
After summoning the “Mana Nightmare Demon,” Dark quickly said, “Next, I will have my magus golem use a field spell. At that time, my and Rose’s speed should increase, while Diana’s may not.”
Diana: “Eh?”
Dark didn’t explain and continued, “In short, the increased speed will be enough to support us in escaping quickly during a crisis. Once something goes wrong, don’t hesitate, run immediately.”
Rose nodded, half-understanding.
Diana still looked puzzled.
Dark added, “Of course, the tentacle’s speed should slow down.”
Then he reached out to touch the Mana Nightmare Demon’s head, though its head had a structure resembling a mage’s hat, it was actually part of its body.
The Mana Nightmare Demon squinted its eyes, enjoying the touch.
As a magus golem born last night, its heart was still as pure as a baby.
Dark was uneasy about putting this inexperienced magus golem on the front line, but if it was just used as a tool to open space, he trusted it.
“Begin.”
Dark retracted his hand and said, “Nightmare Space, deploy!”
“Yomimi!”
Upon receiving its master’s command, the Mana Nightmare Demon’s eyes instantly focused. It became visibly serious.
With a sound, thick purple smoke quietly spread from beneath it, spreading rapidly in all directions.
In an instant, the smoke spread beyond the tunnel, enveloping the tentacle.
The hallucinatory effect of “Nightmare Space” took effect, and the tentacle didn’t notice anything amiss.
While it stared intently at this side, the wound inflicted by the demon beast was healing quickly.
Once the wound fully healed, it might be ready to attack again.
But it never got that chance.
—
As the Nightmare Space fully deployed.
The demon beast and Deoxys couldn’t help but frown slightly.
These two extremely fast magus golems moved like they were stuck in mud within the Nightmare Space, struggling to move.
The tentacle’s speed was faster than them, making it even harder.
But Huhu and Eevee jumped with joy.
Although Eevee’s base attributes improved to two-star under the effect of “Pride II New,” it still wasn’t enough to make it active in this battle.
Huhu’s “Power Split” was on cooldown, leaving only “Defense Split” and “Power Trick” as active ultimate skills.
“By swapping attack and defense with ‘Power Trick,’ and lowering the tentacle’s defense with ‘Defense Split,’ its defense will drop to half.”
“Seizing this artificial momentary vulnerability, with Huhu’s 2200 attack after switching attack and defense, it should be able to strike a heavy blow.”
“But that alone is not enough.”
Deoxys put down its bag and walked to the Mana Nightmare Demon under Dark’s command.
The Mana Nightmare Demon circled it twice until Deoxys’ eyebrows furrowed noticeably, then it cheerfully released a thick purple fog, enveloping it.
Then, in everyone’s view, Deoxys’ figure completely disappeared.
It immediately utilized its advantage as a “cat,” moving silently.
With “Bliss III” and “Pride III” already in use, Deoxys was the highest-attribute, highest-attack magus golem in Dark’s possession.
If Deoxys could approach the tentacle unnoticed,
Despite its speed being slowed by “Nightmare Space,” it would surely be able to coordinate with Huhu to deliver a fatal blow.
And Huhu’s speed in “Nightmare Space” could rival that of a high-speed train!
Based on the fundamental theory that greater speed translates to greater kinetic energy, a punch delivered in this state would far exceed the 2200 attack limit!
—
Considering all factors and calculating all possibilities,
Maximizing the attack.
Dark’s thinking was terrifyingly clear.
His magus golems also had high intelligence sufficient to complete this plan.
Huhu’s eyes flickered, ready to strike.
Deoxys crouched forward, silently.
The demon beast drew the tentacle’s attention, preparing to deal the finishing blow at the critical moment.
“Yomimi—”
The Mana Nightmare Demon floated to Dark’s side, rubbing against his shoulder.
Dark immediately understood that Deoxys had reached the edge of the abyss.
The tentacle was less than half a meter away from the small platform extending from the tunnel entrance.
The wind blew, and the war drums beat.
“Leave it to you.”
“Zab!”
Huhu sensed the super speed that could cross hundreds of meters in an instant, bursting with unprecedented confidence.
After nodding in affirmation, its eyes suddenly emitted intense white light!
The instantaneous burst of psychic power exchanged its attack and defense.
[Attack: 0] – [Attack: 2200]
[Defense: 2200] – [Defense: 0]
Then, it peeked from behind the wall, glaring fiercely at the tentacle.
The tentacle’s body was once again enveloped in psychic light.
The tier gap between them made the effect of “Defense Split” last only a very short time.
But Huhu’s current speed was enough to seize this momentary “flaw.”
Its four tentacles swept fiercely, transforming its entire body into light!
And as Huhu’s body glowed with psychic light, Deoxys immediately bent its knees, jumping and soaring, delivering a “Kitty Punch” to the tentacle’s body covered in suction cups!
Its purple mist dispersed instantly as it soared, revealing its snow-white form.
In Dark’s eyes, its movements seemed like slow-motion playback.
But the tentacle’s reaction after noticing it was even slower.
With psychic white light shining on its body, Dark’s golden flash—Huhu—rushed toward it in an instant.
“Zab!”
Its raised tentacle bulged with muscle, as hard as stone, striking the tentacle whose defense was halved.
“BOOM!”
