Chapter 956 - 288: Prey_3

"Powerful Extraordinary individuals, and not just one, there must be over a dozen, have come to deal with this monster."

A glint flashed in Su Changxing’s eyes as he overheard parts of their conversation, realizing that Divine Creatures seemed to be profitable for the Extraordinary.

The enormous profit drove them here.

He didn’t continue controlling the zombie to observe these people up close for fear of being discovered, instead secretly watching from afar.

And indeed.

Those people approached the place where the Tentacle was, and with a thunderous crash, a nearby damaged building collapsed onto a purple-red tentacle, colliding together, sending debris flying and leaving conspicuous wounds on the tentacle’s surface.

The tentacle can assimilate organic matter, but cannot assimilate inorganic matter like stones; otherwise, it’d be feasting underground.

Clearly, faced with a sudden attack, the tentacle did not react, remaining in place, seemingly puzzled as to why the nearby building suddenly fell towards it.

The Law Enforcement Team Captain, wearing sunglasses, was already rushing from the front with a long-barreled firearm, its caliber exaggerated, about the size of three fists.

Boom～

Explosive sparks pierced the massive purple tentacle like thunder from the sky, though the damage wasn’t substantial, merely leaving a medium-sized blood hole in the tentacle.

Yet, such battle results were still astonishing, at least proving that these people had the ability to fight the Tentacle Monster, with both parties being at least on the same level.

Su Changxing controlled a relatively agile zombie to climb up a nearby high building to observe the battle.

These twenty or so people launched fierce attacks against the nearest tentacle, employing various tactics, creating injuries large and small on its surface.

Purple liquid exploded on the tentacle, corroding the ground like strong acid with sizzling sounds, emitting white smoke.

Some of the liquid coincidentally fell on the face of one black-faced man, starting to melt the facial muscles; initially, he could bear it, but eventually, he couldn’t, retreating while letting out tragic screams, then rolling on the ground until he went silent, leaving only a white skull attached with remnants of flesh.

A huge stone flew out from the ruins, striking the heavily scarred tentacle, piercing completely through.

The Captain in sunglasses reloaded bullets, rolled forward, and fired at the base of the massive tentacle, countless steel balls scattered through, shattering it, causing it to collapse to the ground.

Inside the severed tentacle was purple-red flesh, and in the center was a baby-sized, continuously throbbing blood-red heart, seeming out of place amid the surrounding purple blood.

"Get it!"

Upon seeing the blood-red heart, the Law Enforcement Team Captain’s face changed dramatically, showing excitement, shouting loudly.

The Huangmao youth, who hadn’t acted before, rushed forward upon hearing the captain’s call. Other tentacles also reacted, provoked, speeding rapidly to lash towards this area.

The Huangmao youth’s body transformed into a blue shadow, dodged the tentacles’ strikes, his arms extending to over ten meters, touched the throbbing red heart, easily pulling it from the purple flesh as if plucking a radish, along with a considerable amount of blood-red liquid.

This action made the Tentacle Monster more violent, frantically controlling the tentacles to strike the ground, shaking the entire earth constantly.

"Got it!"

The Huangmao youth showed a look of delight on his face, feeling the heart in his embrace, emitting warmth, pulsating powerfully like a newborn baby.

His body turned into a blue shadow again, avoiding the tentacles’ strikes, but he didn’t notice a slender purple-red tentacle appearing among the debris at his feet.

Swoosh～

His left foot was pierced by the tentacle, causing him to fall forward, inevitably collapsing to the ground, and the throbbing heart in his hand rolling away, moving four or five meters.

He showed a look of terror, realizing he couldn’t break free from the tentacle no matter how much he struggled, as if glued to his foot, "Help me, help me."

He yelled desperately but saw the leather-clad woman running away with the throbbing heart, not looking back, full of despair in her expression, preparing to curse, when he heard the explosion of firearms, his left leg being blown off by the tentacle, the captain having destroyed it with firearms.

"Run quickly!"

The captain looked back at him once, shouted, then ran without looking back.

Though he was left with only one leg, without the tentacle’s constraint, he still could run fast, his body forming into a blue shadow, dodging tentacle strikes with a roll.

The other members weren’t so lucky; without enough speed in their Body Technique, being touched by a tentacle meant certain death, with many small tentacles on the ground blocking their escape.

Luckily, they were quite strong Extraordinary individuals, not being polluted by Divine Creatures in the short term, at least maintaining clear consciousness.

The scene was quite chaotic, with half of the people being held back by the tentacles, yet they still managed to escape with the heart.
