At this moment, He Ao had no time to care about these strong and pungent smells.

The dissected body of the monitor lizard collided with the incoming tentacles, briefly blocking the tentacles' attack. He Ao took advantage of the situation and somersaulted backwards, avoiding the tentacles' attack.

He Ao glanced at the dagger with the semi-solidified biological tissue of the monitor lizard still attached to his hand. The sword had no holes.

This sword can be used to break the defense of E-level monsters like giant lizards, and the quality is not that bad.

Perhaps the initial design of the institute was to enable it to deal with E-class alien beasts.

He Ao made a sword dance, held the sword in both hands, and looked up at the octopus.

Those octopus tentacles pierced the monitor lizard's body, then threw it aside casually, and attacked He Ao again.

He Ao tried his best to dodge these tentacles, and countless data flashed through his mind to form a combat model of this octopus.

The so-called life and death in battle is actually a matter of a split second.

Just like two people fighting with weapons, what they are fighting is strength and the skill of using strength. If two swords are put together, whoever is stronger and uses force skillfully can put the sword away and pierce the other's heart with one sword.

died.

Of course, real combat is a little more complicated than this, but the principles are the same.

When maintaining a stalemate, observe carefully to find the opponent's weakness, then cross the stalemate balance point, strike suddenly, and kill with one blow.

At present, the abilities displayed by the octopus monster include:

First, the control over the dead lizard.

Second, the hard skull, eyelids, and bones inside the tentacles.

Third, the attack from the tentacles can easily penetrate the black monitor's attack power.

Fourth, mental attack.

Among these abilities, mental attack can temporarily delay He'ao's movements, but it is not fatal. The dead lizards can pose a direct threat to He'ao, but as long as He'ao kills the octopus when the lizards gather together, this ability can be regarded as non-existent.

So what can pose a life threat to He Ao now is the tentacle attack.

In conjunction with psychic attacks, these tentacles may be able to kill Ho Ao.

For He Ao, the biggest obstacle to killing the octopus is the strong bones of the octopus, whether it is the skull, eyelids, or the bones inside the tentacles.

These bones form a strong defense.

During the flash battles, He Ao was more and more perfect in establishing the battle model of the octopus monster in his mind.

Through the movement of those tentacles and some brief collisions, he gradually figured out the structure of the bones in the octopus's tentacles.

Those bones are roughly in the shape of a ‘∧’, nested together one by one, with large gaps between the bones to ensure the flexible movement of the tentacles.

Rather than saying that these tentacles are tentacles, they are actually more like the extended limbs of this giant 'octopus'.

However, since bones are used, it means that the flexibility of this octopus tentacle is not as good as real tentacles.

Now that he has figured out the structure and opponent's abilities, He Ao can try to start a counterattack.

He had been suppressed just now, and he didn't even make any effective counterattack.

But there is one thing to do before counterattacking.

These tentacles are completely black and can blend into the night almost perfectly, and the scarlet eyes of the octopus are extremely dazzling in the night.

While these eyes attracted some of He Ao's attention, they actually provided a layer of cover for those dark tentacles.

He Ao's eyesight in the dark was not that good. In this case, he was almost successfully attacked by tentacles several times.

It is not a good thing to fight in an environment where others are good at it.

He Ao held the sword in his back, freed his index finger and thumb, took out a small black finger-like stick from his chest, and stuck it on his shoulder.

There must be light.

The moment He Ao released his fingers and changed the dagger from reverse to upright, a dazzling light shot out from his shoulders.

This is a mini flashlight issued on combat uniforms.

He Ao hadn't taken out the flashlight just now, because he was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to be able to fight back after he gradually became familiar with the octopus's attack methods.

Generally speaking, creatures that are accustomed to living in the dark, no matter how strong they are and whether they can receive light or not, will be somewhat sensitive to light.

When the strong light came on, most of the octopus's eyes closed instantly, and its dancing tentacles fell into a brief stillness.

This is a brief brain shutdown after being exposed to strong stimulation.

This is He Ao's opportunity.

The Qi sinking in his Dantian was mobilized by him, and quickly passed through his arms, attaching to the two daggers.

The silver sword light flashed past and cut along the gaps between the bones of the tentacles in the sky. The sharp sword edge sliced ​​through the dark muscles, leaving a deep crack.

He Ao twisted his wrist slightly, and while maintaining the sword's power, he slightly deflected the sword's edge and directly cut off the two tentacles.

But those two tentacles he wanted to cut were not the only ones. As the sword edge flashed past, several more tentacles were cut off.

When the octopus reacted, He Ao had already cleared a path among the dense tentacles and ran straight in front of the octopus's huge head.

From Super Memory's perspective, the strongest shadow of the octopus's soul is on this head, and his weakness should also be on this head.

He Ao jumped up, stepped on the tentacle next to him, and used the force to jump directly to the top of the octopus's head. The stainless steel dagger attached to the 'qi' reflected a faint crystal light under the strong light flashlight on his shoulder.

of brilliance.

The octopus seemed to be aware of Heao's plan at this moment.

Woo——

A whimpering cry sounded, and powerful mental power attacked He Ao, trying to delay He Ao's actions.

Countless tentacles that were still intact began to return from the night and rushed over quickly.

At this moment, He Ao is in front of the octopus. Once those tentacles return, He Ao will definitely die.

Even the dead giant lizards in the distance began to rush towards He Ao crazily.

At this moment, He Ao glanced at the eyes on these heads.

Mental disturbance!

It was like a thunder exploded in the octopus's mind, and all its movements stopped for a moment.

At the same time, He Ao, who was mentally attacked, also slowed down his movements.

Both parties are frozen, which means there is no stiffness.

But He Ao's movements were inertial. During the period when both parties were stiff, he was a little closer to the octopus's head.

At the moment when consciousness returned, He Ao was already close to the octopus's head. He placed his feet on top of the octopus's head and stabbed down with the two daggers in his hands.

The bones that were so hard that they could withstand bullets were pierced by the dagger blessed with 'Qi' like paper.

Ho Ao chose this location for a reason.

With the blessing of 'Qi', he could roughly see the energy flow lines inside the octopus.

The place under his feet is the most important energy gathering point of the octopus. Even if it is not the spiritual center of the octopus, it is still an important organ.

The moment the dagger pierced, He Ao suddenly held the hilt and cut it on both sides. Each of his scarlet eyes was cut in half by the sharp blade, and purple blood spattered onto He Ao's gray combat uniform.

A shorter tentacle returned the fastest, and it flew towards He Ao fiercely, stabbing He Ao in the back of the heart.

He Ao dodged the tentacle on one side of his body, preventing his heart from being pierced, but a large piece of flesh and blood was still taken away from his left shoulder, with light purple-gray blood flowing along the wound.

outflow.

He Ao gritted his teeth and suddenly used his dagger to cut in all directions, cutting the octopus's head open like petals.

Under this attack, the huge octopus struggled wildly, with countless tentacles flying towards He Ao, and its body was constantly shaking, trying to throw He Ao off.

But all this was in vain, He Ao allowed those tentacles to leave several wounds on his body, and the movements of his hands never stopped.

Finally, with a soft sound, when He Ao's dagger touched a hard bone, the octopus's body stiffened and slowly fell from the sky.

"Woo——"

This time the octopus's whine seemed different from the previous ones. The sound gradually became softer and finally disappeared completely after the octopus died.

The pitch-black lizard, which was running at the front and lunged at He Ao with its huge mouth open, lost all movement in mid-air, flew past He Ao, and fell to the ground.

"Hahu-"

He Ao gasped for air and fell down on the octopus's body. His body was covered with blood, some purple and some red.

Part of this blood belongs to the octopus, and part of it belongs to himself.

Even the bright flashlight on his shoulder had been knocked off long ago and fell aside.

At this moment, He Ao did not turn off his super memory. He held the sword in his hand, peeled off the octopus's shell, and saw what had just blocked his sword.

It is a bridge-like bone that connects the octopus skull and rear tentacles. It is cross-shaped, long up and down, and short left and right.

This bone is extremely hard, and it actually blocked the dagger covered with 'qi'.

He Ao gathered more energy on the sword and used force to split the bone from the upper and lower ends.
