"Gollum, Gollum..."
A huge bubble like a glass cover emerged from the surface of the water, and then a faint flower of blood spread quickly around it like red ink.
"Blood! How can there be blood?"
Everyone on the boat was shocked when they saw it. Suddenly, a pale arm with thick hair broke out of the water and grabbed the rope on the side of the barge. The head of the big man who had entered the water before popped out.
"Adonis, are you injured!?"
"There's something in the water... there's something in the water."
The big man raised his face and said intermittently,
"... catch... save him first." His features were wrinkled in agony, and his other hand struggled out of the water—
"Blu!" The big man put his other hand around the waist of the skinny boy.
At this time, the boy's face was pale, covered with green algae, and curled up like a boiled prawn.
Seeing this, the almost desperate mother hung half of her body off the side of the boat without hesitation, and then dragged the boy onto the boat with the concerted efforts of everyone, "Doctor, is there a doctor, save my child! He Not breathing!"
…
"Strength! Everyone pull Adonis up!"
The sailors desperately grabbed the hemp rope wrapped around the big man's waist, and the other person hugged his arms and slowly pulled the weak man out of the water. Soon, his body was suspended between the boat and the water, his waist back. Several dark red streaks and a circle of bite wounds were exposed in front of everyone.
"What the hell is in the water?"
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, give me strength."
No sign!
The surface of the river suddenly boiled, and two long tentacles covered with suction cups stretched out, the thickness of an adult's arm.
Just under the horrified eyes of the sailors, two tentacles wrapped around the big man's shoulders and pulled him down.
At the same time, there was a faint, baby-sobbing cry from the water, and countless white sprays appeared on the water, as if a water pump was constantly beating on the water.
The witcher stared at the tentacles, Anjin's eyes darkened—

"Linus Peet, what a crow's mouth! This thing definitely has something to do with the sleeping giant octopus monster at the floating port!"
Roy sighed inwardly and pulled out Arondette.
At this time, almost all bystanders were shocked and dumbfounded.
The sailor was no exception, the strength in his hands could not help loosening, and the big man's body was instantly pulled half by the creatures in the water.
However, the good psychological qualities cultivated by long-term water work made them wake up quickly, and immediately stopped the momentum of the big man's falling, and put all their strength into competition with the monsters in the water.
The poor big man was caught in the middle and became the target of the wrestling between the two sides.
But he still didn't whimper, his eyes were full of anger, and his teeth were bleeding.
"Good guy!"
The witcher no longer cared about revealing his identity, he grabbed the rope beside the boat with one hand and swayed in the air like a swing, while Arondette dragged a wonderful red light in his hand and swept over the monster's forelimbs.
A group of sailors only felt that the resistance in their hands disappeared in an instant, but the two tentacles of the monster that were wrestling with them were cut off and fell into the river.
The red blood splashed from the severed limb, and the monster let out a cry of "嘤嘤" and dived into the water.
The sailors successfully pulled the big man onto the boat.
"Cough... cough..." The big man lay weakly on the boat, took a sip of the strong wine to ward off the cold, and then showed a grateful smile to the witcher.
"Who is your Excellency?"
"The Demon Hunter..." Linus strode over and said loudly to the crowd, "This Your Excellency is a Demon Hunter. With him around, there is nothing to fear from the monsters in the water!"
"No wonder, his skills are so superb!"
There was a burst of exclamations from everyone on the boat, and the fear of seeing the monster for the first time dissipated a little.
"Witcher, do your best, kill this beast!"
The little boy on the other side woke up after being rescued, only revealing a pair of eyes full of fear, hiding tightly in the woman's arms like a small beast.
"You guys have a good time and rest until I get rid of this evil beast."
As the witcher said that, he blinked again at Ciri, who was full of surprise in the distance. However, compared to the surprise of Her Royal Highness, the round-faced maid and the leader of the soldiers, Krause, looked at the witcher with a less friendly look.
"Witcher, are you following us?!"
"The situation is urgent, I will explain it later."
Roy went straight to the side of the ship to observe.
On the water not far from the barge, a shuttle-shaped wave followed the barge not far or near. Everyone followed his gaze to see the faint oval monster under the tentacles, and couldn't help but be afraid.
It was obvious that the injured octopus did not flee, nor did it rashly approach.
The witcher understands that this creature is very vengeful, like a mad dog, and will never let anyone who dares to offend it.
And as a mollusk, breaking two tentacles is not much harm to it.
"To do away with evil..."
Roy borrowed a harpoon attached to a rope from the crew and poured a bottle of paralyzing poison directly onto it.
Then, in a bunch of strange eyes, he raised the harpoon over his shoulder and aimed at the moving shadow under the turbid water.
To be honest, he hasn't used this thing yet, but his extraordinary agility, strength, and perception allowed him to quickly adjust his state and find the best touch.
Eliminating the complicated disturbances around him and opening the witcher's senses, he felt the howling river wind, rushing water, moving barges and wandering octopuses.
Time seemed to stand still.
The tentacles whipping under the water were magnified to the extreme in the field of vision.
"Whoosh—" The harsh sound of breaking through the air sounded, no one could see the witcher's movements clearly, only a very faint phantom flashed by in the field of vision.
"Pfft!"
Water splashed on the water surface in the distance, and the fast-moving ripples trembled violently. Half of the octopus monster was holding a long harpoon, spinning and circling in the water, struggling desperately.
The blood mist filled the turbid water.
It didn't take long for the paralyzing poison to take effect, and it stopped struggling, rolled over its stomach like a spherical water bag, and was dragged by the barge.
The sailors pulled the ropes and dragged the monster to the deck.
This vicious beast, which is under the water, is finally showing its full face in front of the world!
"Look, what a tenacious vitality!" Linus squeezed past the crowd, reached out and touched the calf-sized monster, a flush of excitement on his thin cheeks, "The strong tentacles in the abdomen... I dare Guaranteed to be the tentacles that dragged the boy into the water. Fist-sized suckers and chrysanthemum-like mouths and messy serrations…”
"Be careful, it's still alive!"
The witcher squatted down and patted the octopus's reflex-like tentacles that kept squirming.
"mutated animals..."
He came to a conclusion.
The onlookers looked at it with frightened eyes, and they all retreated subconsciously.
Surrounded by a group of soldiers, the little princess leaned behind the witcher and stared at the huge octopus, with fear in her bright eyes, but more excitement.
"Roy, you are so powerful! What do we do with this monster next?"
"Kill it!" the crowd roared, especially the little boy's mother who was the most excited.
"Can't let it harm others again!"
"Yes, witcher, take out this monster now!"
"Stop, stop arguing!" Linus yelled, glancing at everyone angrily.
"Master Roy, you caught this octopus monster. You should decide what to do with it... I..."
Linus licked his dry lips, "Please sell it to me!"
