Chapter 631: Ghost Squid

"Lago!" Qin Lun yelled, ignoring to remind others, flipped his left wrist, and the evil dagger shot at the thief's vest like a black lightning in the astonished eyes of everyone.

After shooting out the dagger, Qin Lun's right hand shook again, and the Chasing Wind Frost that appeared in his hand at some unknown time, transformed into a ferocious ice chain with a top that looked like a metal animal claw. This is another form of weapon formed by combining the dark blue claw chain with the Frost Chaser Weapon Case.

The Frost Ghost Claw came first, the metal ghost claw at the front grabbed the sinful dagger that was fired earlier, and a disembodied black soul rope extended from the front end of the Killing Relic, wrapping around the thief's waist , suddenly pulled him over.

Lago didn't know what happened, showing a dazed face. However, his complexion changed very soon, because at the same time that the soul rope was pulling him, a huge object swept away the mist like a wind-blown cloud on the originally calm water surface, and swept towards the position where he was originally standing.

As the fog dissipated, everyone saw the object clearly with the help of the faint light from Winnie's staff. This is a tentacle with a length of tens of meters and a diameter of almost one meter.

This giant tentacle stretched out from under the water. Looking from a distance, it was still a long distance from the shore. No wonder that when the fog was thick just now, Lago could only hear the sound of splashing water, but could not really discover its existence. .

The tentacle didn't catch Lago, and seemed a little annoyed. It circled around the water for a week, and flung it towards everyone's position again, making everyone jump around and fly back in a hurry.

When the tentacles were thrown not far in front of everyone, everyone realized that this thing looks a bit creepy.

Its surface is covered with suction cups the size of washbasins. It is said to be a sucker, but it is actually more like a giant mouth of a beast, with three rings of sharp teeth neatly arranged inside. The top of the tentacles is more like a huge flower, with four forked fusiform petals covered with jagged fine teeth.

Seeing this scene, Lago's face was full of joy, and he cast a grateful look at Qin Lun. If the silver-haired elf hadn't pulled him just now, I'm afraid he would have been torn to pieces by the tentacles and eaten alive.

Regardless of the thief's own strength, there is absolutely no chance of winning against this kind of thing.

"Isn't this... a ghost-faced squid?" Mustasia couldn't believe her eyes, her beautiful eyes widened in astonishment, and the camouflage paint on her face kept twitching along with her cheeks.

"What?" Qin Lun asked cautiously while dodging.

"Oh? Oh! A sea monster, how could there be such a thing in the land of the dead, how is this possible?" Mustaxia was a little incoherent, "Could it be that Bode raised it here and guarded the treasure? ?"

"Impossible. Except for the gods, the experts in the Legendary Domain have no ability to sign a summoning contract with this kind of creature." Qin Lun shook his head immediately after thinking about it for a while.

The continent of Faerun is a magical world, and basic magic rules must be followed.

Qin Lun also has summoned creatures, so let's not talk about whether such a large legendary creature can sign a summoning contract. The mana it usually needs to maintain in the pet paradise is an astronomical figure, and even the weaker gods can't bear it, let alone the legendary powerhouse.

If it was a physical creature, then Bord'an couldn't bring it here at all, not even through the Chongsa River or the Winding River. If it is still a juvenile, it is somewhat likely to be stocked here.

However, it is also too late for this sea monster to grow from a juvenile to such a large size, at least in ancient times. What's more, if the legendary pirates planned to use it to guard the treasure, why would they only bring a giant juvenile beast

"Then there is only one possibility. Both the Winding River and the Chongsa River are connected to the ocean. When it was still a juvenile, it migrated here along a certain river channel and underground water network." After calming down, Mustaxia could not help but smile wryly. Again and again.

She had never seen such a thing, and the Harper's rich adventure experience helped her, but it also imprisoned her mind at certain times. Of course, it is impossible to breed such a sea monster in a swampy environment, because the water depth and width are not enough.

But the land of death is not an ordinary swamp, who knows what happened here in ancient times. Several epic battles have occurred here, which also means that this place has been bombarded by countless forbidden spells, and it is entirely possible to leave a huge and deep lake.

Back then, during the battle between the Jondal elves and the Jondas Kingdom, didn't the elf mages also use forbidden spells to bombard a Weihong sea area connected to the Falling Star Sea in the north of the Jondas Kingdom

There have been so many epic wars in the land of the dead, so what's so great about leaving a big pit that can feed giant sea beasts.

"Stop talking nonsense, where are you going to run?" Rick yelled at the two of them, and the usually calm knight also seemed a little irritable at this time.

He didn't regret accepting this employment mission, so he rushed to Qin Lun to help Winnie and Lago again and again, even if time went back one more time, he would rush over to help. It's just that he really doesn't want to die here, not because he is afraid of death, but because he still has many unfulfilled wishes.

"If it's a mature ghost-faced squid..." Mastacia showed a bit of bitterness on his face, slowly took off the longbow on his back, and said with a shameful expression, "This time it's my fault, we went too deep into this lake I'm afraid I'm surrounded. Run away, I'll try to buy you some more time!"

"Surround?" Everyone was a little surprised, and each turned to look at the highland elves who had regained their composure. Could it be that this thing still lives in groups? Then there is really no way out!

"You will find out in a moment, I will help you open a passage, remember, you only have one chance, don't look back!" After finishing speaking, the highland elf closed his eyes and began to adjust his breathing rate, with a strange expression on his face Perseverance.

Qin Lun looked at the calm Mustaxia, his eyes flashed strangely. I don't know if there is an illusion, this "big" beauty who has always been carefree and has a rough personality, after she has the intention to die, she actually makes him feel a strange beauty.

"Woo..." After several unsuccessful attacks, there was a dull sound like a horn from the lake's water. Then the surface of the water began to boil, and a "mountain" dozens of times larger than the barbaric bully emerged from the surface of the water.

"It's really ugly!" The "mountain" protruding from the water looks like a triangular cone, and everyone's first impression is that it is ugly.

The body of the tentacles is a creature that looks like a calamari or a squid, but if you look closely, it is different from a calamari. Apart from a horny plate inside the calamari, the squid is actually a mollusk, but this giant sea monster in front of it is not.

Its body is covered with lake-green scales, each of which is the size of a millstone, protecting the giant beast's body like a layer of armor. The top of the head is even more slender like a gun, and it is like the ram of a sailing battleship, with a bright reflection like metal.

Now Qin Lun knew why it was called the ghost-faced squid. On the front of its triangular cone head, there were parts similar to human facial features.

However, apart from the eyes, there are only three black holes left in the nose and mouth. In the center of the black hole that represents the nostrils, there is actually a slender horny plate, which looks like a distorted skull, is it just like a ghost mask? It is the same!

At the same time, everyone also knew why Mustasia said they were surrounded.

After the ghost-faced squid's body emerged from the water, everyone discovered that its tentacles were not only longer than what they had seen before, but also had more than one tentacles at all. In addition to the few tentacles waving in front of them, there are seven or eight other huge tentacles tens of meters behind them, swimming towards us silently like a giant python.

Everyone suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Mustasia would say that it was her fault. The dirt road leading to the center of the lake was completely a bait, and it sent everyone to the ghost-faced squid's mouth like chopsticks.

The highland elves knew that there were legendary creatures here, but failed to discover this obvious flaw, and brought everyone into a desperate situation, so they blamed themselves to the point of death.

"I really can't underestimate these ancient giant beasts. They are smarter than many intelligent races." Qin Lun's eyes flickered for a while, looking at the ghost-faced squid in front of him, he understood more things.

This lake may be formed naturally, but the few dirt roads that run across the center of the lake probably aren't. If the depth of this lake is enough to feed a sea monster, then the dirt road above the water is like a steep cliff in the underwater part.

There is no such terrain in the swamp environment, and it should be transformed by the ghost-faced squid. As I thought before, these dirt roads are its "chopsticks".

Unlike the wild bulls who encountered it before, on such a narrow dirt road, the tentacles of the ghost-faced squid encircled them like a net, which was almost a desperate situation.

"Do you want to use it?" Hill asked seriously in the team channel.

"Well, the highland elves can't die yet, let me do it!" The person who answered was not Qin Lun, but Rand. Fireworks showed excitement, and took out a simple magic scroll from his arms.

"Bringing these two items can enhance control!" Qin Lun raised his hand and threw two items to Rand, which were his Iron Cross and the Moonlun Chain.

The Lunar Chain, a shiny gold item, has a passive special effect—Concentration. Wearing this accessory can give you the effect of concentration and meditation, reduce the need for skill casting, and enhance the accuracy of skills, which is just right at this time.

As for the Iron Cross, at this time, it is not its attribute enhancement effect that is important, but another equipment special effect that enhances the magic power of an active skill of the apostle!

"And this, it can reduce your mana consumption!" Hill smiled and threw a bracelet-shaped equipment over.

This is the magic-sucking bracelet he got from killing the ghost warrior Michelle in the phantom world a long time ago. Basically, it has the same function as the ghost cage hand. It sucks blood and magic, weakens the enemy, and helps restore itself.

"So are you ready to watch the fireworks show?" Rand grinned, pulled the black leather gloves on his hands, and tore open the magic scroll.
