“Inori!”
Shu Ouma shouted, and Inori Yuzuriha immediately picked up the Void Greatsword and rushed up, slashing at the tentacles waving in the sky.
This slash directly severed those small tentacles.
Although the giant tentacles supporting the body could not be cut off, these smaller tentacles could still be severed.
The net-like tentacles were cut open with a gap, and the severed tentacles quickly regenerated and continued to pounce on Shu Ouma and the others.
Gai Tsutsugami didn't have Shu Ouma's protection, so he had no choice but to keep moving around, dodging the attacks while also drawing his bow to fight back.
There was nothing else he could do, his Void was only a bow, and he could only use the bow to deal damage.
Once he lost his bow and arrow, there would be no damage at all.
After all, the killing power of technological firearms against Void monsters was ridiculously weak.
Of course, that was mainly due to the Apocalypse Virus, but they didn't know that.
Shu Ouma didn't care how difficult it was for Gai Tsutsugami, he stayed by Inori Yuzuriha's side the whole time.
As long as any tentacles approached Inori Yuzuriha, he would instantly teleport in front of Inori Yuzuriha and use his right hand to block those attacks.
But this situation didn't last long.
After Shu Ouma teleported in front of Inori Yuzuriha once again and used his right hand to block the attack, Inori Yuzuriha in the back suddenly left the ground.
“Shu!”
Inori Yuzuriha shouted at Shu Ouma in a panic.
Shu Ouma turned his head and saw Inori Yuzuriha suddenly lifted off the ground, which surprised Shu Ouma very much.
“Inori, what's going on?”
“Something grabbed me!”
Inori Yuzuriha raised the Void Greatsword in her hand, preparing to slash at the surrounding air, but the right hand she wanted to swing suddenly became unable to move, as if something had locked it in mid-air.
Inori Yuzuriha was locked with both hands like this, and then hung in mid-air.
“Gai Tsutsugami!”
Shu Ouma didn't have much attack power, so he immediately called out to Gai Tsutsugami in the distance.
Although they couldn't wait to kill each other, they also understood that if the two sides didn't cooperate, they would only die at the hands of the monster.
Gai Tsutsugami frowned when he heard Shu Ouma's call, but he still turned his head to look at Shu Ouma as soon as possible, and then saw Shu Ouma's right hand pointing to the sky.
Following the direction, he saw Inori Yuzuriha hanging in mid-air.
“Huh?”
Gai Tsutsugami was very puzzled at first.
What did Inori Yuzuriha mean by this, but seeing Inori Yuzuriha's hands raised and her legs still bouncing, he understood that she was trapped by something.
And the thing that could trap Inori Yuzuriha was obviously the tentacles of this monster.
After all, although this monster looked terrifying, he could already guess what kind of creature it was.
A super giant octopus infected with the Apocalypse Virus and then mutated.
Such regeneration ability was also a super-enhanced version of the regeneration ability inherent in octopus-like creatures.
So he directly drew his bow and charged up, and shot directly at Inori Yuzuriha's side.
This arrow directly shot out a piece of green blood in the air, and a black tentacle appeared beside Inori Yuzuriha.
Now it could be seen.
It was the mimicry ability possessed by octopuses.
In the ocean, octopuses can change color and blend in with the environment, but I didn't expect that it could make its tentacles transparent!
This situation surprised Gai Tsutsugami, but his hands didn't stop.
He aimed again and prepared to shoot an arrow to rescue Inori Yuzuriha, but the monster didn't let him continue shooting.
Transparent tentacles directly wrapped around him from behind, preparing to control him as well.
Gai Tsutsugami reacted very quickly and immediately shot an arrow behind him, breaking the tentacle.
This time the tentacle was relatively small and was directly shot off.
But turning his head, Inori Yuzuriha had already been lifted up by the tentacles and pulled away.
The dense tentacles in the sky made it impossible for him to see Inori Yuzuriha's location.
“Tsk~”
Gai Tsutsugami couldn't help but click his tongue, but Shu Ouma on the other side couldn't bear it and widened his eyes directly.
“Inori!”
His wife was captured, and Shu Ouma went berserk on the spot, rushing towards the tentacle swarm, holding up his right hand, moving forward all the way, constantly using his right hand to block the attacks of those tentacles, and at the same time starting to climb up along the monster's supporting tentacles.
Because the surface of the monster's body was full of uneven scales, this instead gave him enough leverage to climb up.
If it was bare, slippery octopus skin, it would be difficult to climb.
Gai Tsutsugami was very speechless when he saw Shu Ouma rushing in like this, not caring about his life, but he still raised his bow, dodging the attacks of the tentacles while covering Shu Ouma, designing from below to above, directly shooting down the tentacles that were close to Shu Ouma and that Shu Ouma could not defend against alone.
The two sides, who had been hating each other in their hearts, had to cooperate at this time.
However, their efforts were of no use.
The only one among the three of them who had a large-scale attack ability was Inori Yuzuriha.
Now that Inori Yuzuriha was captured, they had no way to fight against this overwhelming tentacle.
Soon, both of them were captured.
And the two who were captured, like Inori Yuzuriha before, were lifted up by the tentacles and then began to rise continuously.
The three of them quickly reached the same height, being lifted up and rising continuously, leaving the water surface one hundred meters, two hundred meters, three hundred meters, until they stopped at a height of four hundred meters.
At this height, even if the bottom was the water surface, the moment they fell and hit the water surface, even if they didn't die, they would be directly stunned, and then drown in the sea water.
But they were not thrown down, but were taken to a huge cave.
“A cave?”
“No, this is not a cave, this is its eye!”
While Shu Ouma was puzzled, Gai Tsutsugami had already judged what this cave was.
Sure enough, the black shadow in this huge cave slowly dissipated, and a huge eyeball appeared in front of the three of them, just a huge eyeball, silently looking at the three of them.
730 . Shu Ouma's Awakening
The huge eye looked bigger than a building, and Shu Ouma and the other two were hung by the monster's tentacles in front of its huge eyeball.
The huge eyeball was like a long building, and the dark pupil was quietly watching the three people hanging there.
The monster seemed to want to see who it was that suddenly cut off its leg, making it feel so painful.
This was the first time it felt so painful after gaining such a powerful force, so it wanted to take a good look at what exactly was hurting it.
After all, that slash almost cut off the tentacle supporting its body.
If it weren't for its powerful regeneration ability, that tentacle would probably be useless.
After hanging the three of them up, it was a little puzzled for a while.
It had seen this kind of creature before.
When it was devouring animals in the ocean and growing up, it also encountered some fishing boats.
There were such creatures in those things floating on the sea surface, which could make strange noises.
But it didn't expect that this kind of creature could cause so much damage to itself.
The most these creatures it had encountered before could do was to hit its head with that strange thing that could float on the sea surface.
But that thing was useless even if it collided with its head, it would only be pierced by the thorns on its head, but the creatures in front of it wouldn't.
Not only were they not easily overturned by its tentacles, but they even cut off several of its tentacles.
Although those tentacles didn't have much impact on its main body, they still hurt.
So, the monster, out of curiosity, grabbed the three of them and wanted to see what exactly they were.
But looking left and right, there was nothing special about them, the same size as those creatures it had seen.
However, there was one thing that it cared about very much, that was, there was something in the bodies of these three creatures that it was very eager for.
Absorb them!
It would become stronger!
As a product of Void gene modification, facing Shu Ouma and the other two who were also modified by Void genes, the monster instinctively wanted to absorb and fuse them.
And after having this idea, it immediately did so.
Below its eyes, the dark scales suddenly cracked open from the middle, revealing a huge fissure.
And within this huge fissure, dense masses of black tentacles stretched out, covered with many barbs. It was the monster's mouth. Although octopuses are supposed to be soft-bodied creatures, it had obtained the Gastrea genes, and even had scales and barbs. Having some bones would definitely not be a problem.
"It wants to eat us!"
Jiang Shenya immediately understood what the monster meant.
"What!"
Ouma Shu was alarmed, but the monster didn't want to eat him first, but rather Yuzuriha Inori, whom he had grabbed first, because his intuition told him that this woman was the culprit who brought him pain, so he wanted to eat her first!
Ouma Shu watched as Yuzuriha Inori was constantly being sent towards the giant mouth, and he felt despair. That was Yuzuriha Inori, his wife!
In despair, Ouma Shu shouted.
"Inori!!"
He wanted to imitate the male lead in idol dramas when he and the female lead were forcibly separated, reaching out to her, but his arm was tightly entangled by the tentacles, and he couldn't move at all. If it weren't for absorbing the Void Genome in his body, he probably wouldn't even have had a chance to move and would have been crushed to death by the tentacles.
And Yuzuriha Inori also looked at Ouma Shu with a desperate expression and called out Ouma Shu's name.
The two of them, right in front of Jiang Shenya, shouted each other's names and were constantly pulled apart, which made Jiang Shenya's face darken.
Even when about to die, he had to eat this couple's dog food and be disgusted by these two?
Ouma Shu watched helplessly as Yuzuriha Inori was brought into that terrifying mouth, and then watched as the mouth slowly closed.
"Damn it, if I could be stronger! If I could help Yuzuriha Inori!"
Watching Yuzuriha Inori gradually being pulled into the darkness, Ouma Shu constantly denied himself in his heart and yearned for powerful strength.
In his cooperation with Yuzuriha Inori, he had always been good at defense, because his right hand could absorb everything, mainly absorbing various attacks.
But he had no attack power, which meant that once he didn't block the attack, he was useless.
He couldn't protect anything.
"I can't do anything!"
In such self-denial, his Void Genome awakening index rapidly increased, constantly rising. Originally starting at 40, it continued to rise, soaring to 50, directly triggering awakening.
Huh?
Wang Xiaoming, who had been watching from the shore, also felt the change in the Void Genome, which was the fluctuation of the Void Genome breaking through the critical value.
He could feel the fluctuations before, but those fluctuations were all from ordinary Void Soldiers. Even if those ordinary Void Soldiers reached the critical value, the fluctuations they could produce were not much.
But now, the fluctuation of reaching the critical value is a bit big.
This fluctuation, that is to say, one of the three of them has awakened?
The final wave is finally about to begin?
Wang Xiaoming felt the Void fluctuations coming from the sky and nodded with satisfaction. After one awakens, the remaining two will also awaken quickly. The Voids of the three of them are linked. Adam, Eve, and Adam's candidate, as long as one of them awakens, the awakening of the remaining two is only a matter of time.
In the high sky, Ouma Shu, whose Void was fully awakened, directly broke free from the tentacles. After breaking free from the tentacles, he didn't fall down, but floated in mid-air, which left Jiang Shenya dumbfounded.
What's the situation? How can you suddenly fly?
Under Jiang Shenya's stunned gaze, Ouma Shu stretched out his right hand forward with empty eyes. Silver threads appeared around him, constantly surrounding his body, like rings, enveloping him.
The monster behind him was still constantly releasing tentacles to attack him, but all the approaching tentacles were resolved by the silver threads around him.
Ouma Shu, who was watching all this, still had empty eyes, just facing forward, maintaining the posture of stretching out his right hand.
After maintaining this posture coldly for a while, he said coldly.
"Disappear."
731. The Final Sword
One sentence, just one sentence, directly caused a large pile of tentacles in front of him to disappear instantly.
Those approaching tentacles, whether they were hidden and transparent, or those that blatantly touched over, as long as they were in front of Ouma Shu, all suddenly disappeared.
Of course, this was just a superficial disappearance. In reality, those tentacles did not really disappear, but were directly decomposed, because the Void Genome in these tentacles was all instantly released and absorbed by him. Therefore, to outsiders, those tentacles disappeared directly because of his words.
With one sentence, all the tentacles blocking him were resolved. Ouma Shu didn't have any expression changes, just silently moved forward, floating in the air like this, slowly moving forward.
All the approaching tentacles would be shattered and disappeared by the silver threads, and those in front would disappear directly from afar, without any ability to resist.
This scene stunned Jiang Shenya watching from the side.
What's the situation? Isn't he good at defense? Why is he suddenly so aggressive? Moreover, the defense is 360 degrees without dead angles, which is too much. Before, he had to raise his right hand, but after this change, he doesn't even need to raise his hand and can defend the entire field directly.
Under Jiang Shenya's gaze, Ouma Shu slowly approached the closed giant mouth and then pushed his right hand again.
"Disappear."
The closed big mouth was directly blasted out with a large hollow, with green blood flowing straight out of the huge hollow, but this huge hollow showed no signs of healing at all.
The LV5 level of super regeneration ability now seemed completely useless in front of Ouma Shu, because although he had the Gastrea Virus, he also had the Void Genome. Part of the Void Genome was directly decomposed, so it couldn't be recovered at all.
Unfortunately, after blasting open a hole, he only saw green blood and black teeth, and did not see Yuzuriha Inori.
"Inori?"
Ouma Shu didn't see Yuzuriha Inori, immediately frowned, and then continued to move forward, entering the hollow he had blasted out, continuing to move forward, and while moving forward, he didn't forget to release his elimination ability again.
On the originally blasted huge hole, another big hole was blasted open again, penetrating even deeper.
This time, he finally saw Yuzuriha Inori, but at this time Yuzuriha Inori was entangled by a large number of clawed tentacles, covered in blood, not the monster's green blood, but human red blood.
"Inori!"
Seeing his wife in such a miserable state, Ouma Shu broke out again.
His forward speed suddenly burst out, directly flying towards Yuzuriha Inori.
However, in front of Yuzuriha Inori, all kinds of tentacles spread out, wanting to stop Ouma Shu, but these tentacles now, in front of Ouma Shu, were useless, directly destroyed by him with a wave of his hand.
Ouma Shu rushed all the way to Yuzuriha Inori, directly tore apart the tentacles entangling Yuzuriha Inori, and reached out to hug Yuzuriha Inori in his arms.
"Inori, wake up."
She couldn't wake up, no matter how he looked at it, she couldn't wake up. No matter what Ouma Shu did, he couldn't wake Yuzuriha Inori, because Yuzuriha Inori's state looked very miserable, and surviving seemed to be a problem.
"Damn it, Inori!!"
Holding Yuzuriha Inori, Ouma Shu raised his head and shouted.
As if hearing Ouma Shu's call, Yuzuriha Inori's body also moved, and her chest lit up with light.
"Inori?"
Ouma Shu looked at Yuzuriha Inori's chest in surprise, where a round hole appeared, truly emitting white light.
This wave of light made him feel like reaching out and touching it.
"Shu, please use my power."
