Chapter 157 Octopus Beast King

"Roar!"

Terrified roars of the Beast Kings came from beneath the surface of the sea.

Dozens of patrol-class surveillance radars dove into the water like ospreys, but all Li Tianran saw was chaotic undercurrents and swirling silt. Underwater, the surveillance radar's reconnaissance capabilities were greatly limited.

Li Tianran couldn't clearly see what was happening beneath the surface, but the great white shark Beast King was clearly startled by the blood floating on the surface and frantically charged towards the shore.

Animals are far more sensitive to danger than humans. At that moment, the fur on Xiao Hei and Bai Mao's necks stood on end, their sharp canine teeth bared as they emitted low, threatening growls towards the sea.

"Awoo!"

A roar came from the distant sea, and blood instantly spread across the surface.

"Another one!" Li Tianran licked his lips, his eyebrows furrowing.

Less than fifteen seconds had passed since the first Beast King was attacked, and the second Beast King had also been attacked, its blood staining the sea. But even now, Li Tianran didn't know who the enemy was.

However, the bomb inside the second Beast King didn't explode, which brought Li Tianran a little relief.

If the attacker could hit the location of the bomb inside the Beast King every time, Li Tianran would have to suspect that the opponent also possessed some ability to see through the creature's fatal weaknesses...

The great white shark Beast King swam frantically towards the shore, but behind it, the surface of the sea slowly bulged, forming a straight line that chased after it at an extremely fast speed. Beneath the surface, a terrifying demon seemed to be lurking, hunting its prey.

The great white shark Beast King was extremely fast, but the line of water was even faster. Before the white shark reached the shore, the line of water would definitely catch up to it.

Li Tianran became anxious. He didn't care about the lives of these Beast Kings, but Xiao Hei and Bai Mao hadn't returned yet!

"What the hell are you? How dare you cause trouble on Kuangxi Island?" Li Tianran gritted his teeth and issued an order to the Tank-class Combat Gladiator through the system. There were always five Tank-class Combat Gladiators and two armed helicopters stationed at the naval modification point to deal with emergencies.

Buzz!

The helicopters spiraled into the air, and the machine guns instantly opened fire, covering the advancing line of water below, but the effect was not significant.

Water could reduce most of the bullet's kinetic energy. The helicopter's firepower wasn't strong enough to stop the line of water from advancing.

Thump!

Five Tank-class Gladiators jumped directly into the water, their power propulsion devices activated at the rear of their waists. They frantically surged forward, preparing to receive Xiao Hei and Bai Mao.

"Not fast enough, the opponent is too fast..." Li Tianran frowned as he sat in the helicopter. The Tank-class Combat Gladiator's speed in the water was far slower than on land. At this rate, it wouldn't be enough to intercept the white shark Beast King before the water line caught up!

"Awoo!"

Just then, Xiao Hei, who had been silent on the back of the great white shark Beast King, suddenly roared and leaped into the sea, making direct contact with the approaching line of water. Its dark figure instantly disappeared beneath the surface of the sea!

"Meow..." Bai Mao seemed stunned, meowing twice towards the sea, and then jumped down without hesitation.

"Damn it! Don't you all go down there one by one to die!" Li Tianran's scalp tingled. He never expected Xiao Hei to jump into the sea. Even the sea Beast Kings were being crushed and hunted by this unknown enemy in the sea, wouldn't it be suicide for a land Beast King to jump into the sea?

Soon, the sea churned, creating a raging wave. Xiao Hei's figure reappeared on the surface of the sea, its dark fur soaked with seawater, and a hideous wound on its body, making it look very disheveled.

But it was holding a narrow, soft foot in its mouth, similar to an octopus, but the soft foot didn't have a lot of suckers, but sharp, tusk-like spikes!

Tear!

Xiao Hei shook its large head, and with a fierce tear from its sharp canine teeth, the soft foot was instantly torn apart!

Blue blood gushed out!

Then, a large amount of black liquid instantly engulfed Xiao Hei, covering the sea surface within a radius of dozens of meters with black liquid.

"Soft foot, ink sac... an Octopus Beast King?" Li Tianran relaxed a lot when he saw this.

He originally thought it was a high-tech product of some country that could hide from his radar detection, but now it seemed that his worries were unnecessary.

No matter how fierce a Beast King was, it couldn't compare with high-tech weapons.

Although Li Tianran had heat source detection equipment, creatures that lived in the ocean for a long time were very special. The body temperature of some Beast Kings could almost drop to zero, making it difficult for heat source detection equipment to distinguish them from huge ice floes on the seabed...

"I just cleaned up the Beast Kings near Kuangxi Island, and the sea Beast Kings nearby either fled or died. How could an actively attacking Beast King suddenly pop up? How dare it?" Li Tianran frowned.

In the water below, Bai Mao swam to Xiao Hei's side. The "Holy Heart" Divine Descent instantly activated, and Xiao Hei's wounds disappeared in an instant, returning it to its peak state.

The five Tank-class Gladiators also arrived nearby. With the blessing of the propulsion device, their huge bodies rushed over like cannonballs, and their wide blades split the sea surface, slashing towards the Octopus Beast King in front.

"I was too worried. Xiao Hei itself is a powerful Divine Descent type Beast King. Even if the opponent is also a Divine Descent type and occupies the advantage of the terrain, it is impossible to kill Xiao Hei instantly." Li Tianran breathed a sigh of relief, not to mention that Xiao Hei also had top-level support like Bai Mao, coupled with Xiao Hei's tardigrade characteristics, it was a bit difficult to die...

At this time, the five Tank-class Combat Gladiators had surrounded the Octopus Beast King, and the huge blades in their mechanical arms fell, cutting off one soft foot after another. The Octopus Beast King resisted angrily, its soft feet wrapped around the body of the Tank-class Gladiator, seemingly trying to crush even steel.

Li Tianran breathed a sigh of relief.

In his eyes, the various data of the Octopus Beast King quickly appeared.

This was a Divine Descent type Beast King with abnormal strength. The Tank-class Gladiator whose body was entangled by its soft feet could not break free from its control for a while.

"That's not right, none of its three Divine Descents increase its speed, and its own speed data is not too high. How could it display that kind of extreme speed just now?" Li Tianran quickly realized something was wrong. These data did not match the Octopus Beast King's performance just now!

"Xiao Hei! Tank-class Gladiators 02, 03, and 04, withdraw from the battle!" Li Tianran piloted the helicopter and issued an extremely rapid order to the Tank-class Gladiators through the helicopter's loudspeaker: "There... there should be another one below! That one is the real thing! This one is just a cover!"

As soon as Li Tianran finished speaking, he saw a huge shadow rapidly expanding and rising under the sea!

Crack!

The Tank-class Gladiator that was being entangled by the Octopus Beast King was directly knocked out of the sea by a huge impact. Even the Octopus Beast King's soft feet were torn off by the force. Something nearly ten meters long, like a long sword, emerged from the sea, piercing the steel body of the Tank-class Gladiator!

Its entire body was nailed in mid-air, sparks flying everywhere, like Jesus being nailed to the cross...
