Subordinate Doting - Chap 145
The solidified sea water was suddenly awakened, and it slammed against the cruise ship like a roaring beast. The waves rose into the air, instantly reaching a height of more than ten meters, and with a thick layer of white foam, they pressed towards the ship like a collapsed mountain!
The hull quickly tilted to one side like an unbalanced scale.
”Hold on to the railing! Hold on to the railings on both sides!”
Ji Tingyu shouted and rushed towards the team members, first grabbing the ankle of Meng Fan who was closest to him and throwing him into the stairs inside the boat.
The sea water splashed up and instantly piled up on the floor. As the tilt angle became larger and larger, the cruise ship tilted 30 degrees. Glass cups shattered all over the floor. The team members who had not yet recovered their strength fell down one after another, sliding into the sea one by one like dumplings.
”Boss, help me!”
”Director, save me!”
They were wailing in panic. Some of them didn’t even have time to remove the cloth that bound their eyes, and they couldn’t even hold on to the railings.
Ji Tingyu smashed the fire hydrant, pulled out the unfilled water pipe and wrapped it around his waist, then slid down the floor with his feet! The water pipe was quickly stretched out to become an artificial railing, surrounding everyone.
The team members survived the disaster and shouted “Long live the boss” and pulled the water pipes together to help him bear the tension. However, just when they thought they were temporarily safe, the real danger had just begun.
——That thing climbed up.
First, a flesh-red tentacle waved into the air, revealing two neatly arranged rows of circular suction cups underneath. As it fell, it hit the railing of the opposite bow with a “bang”, and wrapped around the fence in circles of smelly and hot mucus.
Then comes the second, third, and tenth article…
Countless flesh-red tentacles quickly boarded the ship in just half a minute, and the added weight restored the 30-degree tilt to a horizontal state.
With a sharp “crunching” sound, the head of that thing suddenly emerged from the sea and jumped to the bow! It was the head of a giant octopus covered with tumors, as big as half the boat, and it hit the boat with a “bang” and shook a five or six meter long crack on the deck.
His eyes were stuck to his face with mucus as if they were about to melt, and he turned to the team member who was stupidly standing in the opposite corner, mumbling something.
If He Zhuo was present at this time, he would be able to recognize this mutated octopus as one of the four people in the previous life, the big-bellied chef.
The air froze for half a minute, and everyone took a breath of cold air.
”Fuck… did you see that…”
”Tell me this isn’t true…”
”Am I in the advanced stage of fucking poisoning? An octopus bigger than a house is staring at me… Is this a science fiction movie…”
Rosalin suspected that the poison had entered her brain, so she grabbed Ji Tingyu’s wrist and asked without turning back, “Boss, did you see it?”
“Yes.”
”Are the hallucinations after being infected interconnected?”
”Probably not. I didn’t turn into Ultraman.”
Rosalin’s heart skipped a beat and she swallowed slowly: “Do you think if I close my eyes, will this thing disappear?”
Ji Tingyu said seriously: “No, but it will make you disappear.”
The giant octopus started moving, and five or six tentacles flew into the air at the same time. Its densely packed suction cups were still stuffed with uneaten fish and shrimps, dripping with yellow soup, and were about to hit them on the head.
”Run! Run to the stairs!”
Rosalin and Ji Tingyu pulled the water pipe together to drag everyone into the stairwell, but she was pushed in by Ji Tingyu at the end and the door was closed tightly: “Take good care of them!”
”Boss!” Rosalind turned around and slammed the door, but saw Ji Tingyu was hit hard on the waist by a thick tentacle in an instant and thrown out of the cruise ship.
The humanoid was powerless in front of the giant.
Ji Tingyu felt that all his internal organs were shattered and at least two ribs were broken. He jumped over the railing and flew several meters into the air.
Just before he fell into the sea, a giant eagle flew low over and gently lifted up the cat’s body. Ji Tingyu endured the severe pain, turned over and climbed up, crawling on the giant eagle’s back.
”Dash to the left.”
”yes.”
Desert Green went around the left side of the octopus and flew diagonally close to his head. Ji Tingyu threw a grenade and blew up one of his tentacles.
But the octopus felt no pain. It just shook slightly and turned around, swinging seven or eight tentacles towards them.
Desert Green quickly flew higher and took him to a safe airspace.
”How are you, bro?”
“I can’t die…”
Ji Tingyu lay on his side, his chest trembling with pain, and blood was all over the corners of his mouth, flowing down his face into the eagle’s feathers.
He choked up and said, “Don’t fly too far. Fly around him. If he can’t see us, he will… go into the ship to look for someone else.”
”Okay.” Desert Green followed orders and flew around the octopus.
Ji Tingyu took out the last grenade from his leg bag and said, “Xiaoqing, your body is about the same size as his. What are your chances of winning against him?”
”Not a single cent.” Mo Moqing answered truthfully.
”No normal octopus can grow this big. He’s a mutant, his combat power has increased a hundred times, and I’m just an ordinary giant. We’re not even in the same league at all.”
”You mean only mutants can fight him?”
”Yes, he is the only mutant in our team.”
Ji Tingyu knew that he was referring to He Zhuo, but he didn’t know how long it would take for him to arrive, and Octopus had already seen through their plan.
”We can’t wait any longer, let’s give it a try.”
The octopus is still a human at heart, and after knowing that they were deliberately attracting fire, it used its tentacles to start pushing cricket pupae into the boat.
Ji Tingyu waited until he was halfway through his transformation into a pupa, then ordered Mo Shaqing to go around from behind him, preparing to use the last grenade to blow it between his eyes, which was his weak spot.
The giant eagle tilted its body and got closer and closer to the octopus, fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters, and finally ten meters, now!
The giant eagle flew to the best throwing point on the side of the octopus. Ji Tingyu stood up and swung his arm. Just as he was about to throw the grenade out, he saw that the octopus did not move, but its eyeballs rolled a quarter circle to the side and stared at them.
