Witcher's Atelier

Chapter 287: The Witcher and the Giant Octopus

The materialized magic power surrounded the "honeycomb" bomb, like light green glass shining brightly. Victor raised his head and glanced at Xi'er on the cliff. She was using the flashing technique to move and arrange magic nodes around her.

It seems that trapping the giant octopus monster here is also a big project for the sorceress. After making sure that she did not pay attention to him, the alchemist quietly put the enchanted honeycomb into the herbal bag and took out another "Enhanced" "Hornet's Nest" tied around the waist.

After doing this, Victor caught Geralt's gaze. The white-haired witcher obviously noticed the blond witcher's little moves, but he said nothing. The Battle of Kaer Morhen and the common Life time builds up enough trust.

Victor smiled and walked over to the white wolf to help him set up a giant octopus trap. This thing was actually an enlarged version of a bear trap, but its bite force was so amazing that if an ordinary animal stepped on it, it would lead to amputation. The disadvantage is that the heavy-duty mechanism is very difficult to open, and if it is to be restrained, it must be fixed on a solid ground with many steel nails.

Geralt: "Are you ready to use your silver sword to deal with monsters?"

Victor: "No problem. I asked Triss to help me enchant it yesterday."

After preliminary investigation, the two witchers decided to give priority to using the silver sword to attack the giant octopus monster, because according to the vibration of the wolf sect badge, there was an obvious magic reaction on the monster. According to Geralt's assessment, it was not just the intersection of the celestial spheres. The creatures have been transformed by the mage.

This guess is well-founded. Sedek said that the history of the giant octopus monster can be traced back more than a hundred years. When it first appeared near the floating port trading station, it undoubtedly caused panic among local residents, but soon people found that it was removed. With its huge body, it was almost harmless, and over time they even called it "Old Man".

But in recent years, the old man has suddenly become aggressive, attacking cargo ships, destroying fishing nets, and dragging people into the water. Monsters like this that suddenly change their eating habits and living habits basically put the pot on the mage's head. That's right, it was done by a dead or irresponsible mage.

"I don't know how big it will actually be. I will lure it ashore later, and most of the time I will adapt to circumstances. But with your physical fitness, it should be easy to imitate my movements.

Just remember that we are witchers. If something goes wrong, we will retreat first. Don’t take any chances! A monster of huge size, what you think is a serious injury is probably just a flesh wound to it. "Geralt warned cautiously while setting up a trap.

Seeing Victor nodding in approval, he continued to explain his ideas. For young witchers, it is a rare opportunity to cooperate with seniors, especially this kind of targeted hunting experience for large monsters.

After a while, the two of them worked together to lay out many large traps. They looked at each other from a distance and nodded, looking at Xi'er who was also prepared and calm at the top. Tanshavier.

"To be honest, I can't figure out why someone would have such an ugly hairstyle?"

"Don't think so when you are face to face. The sorceresses' mind-reading skills are very troublesome. You don't know what they know, let alone when revenge will come!"

After talking about the pain of experience, the white-haired witcher raised his left hand and circled in the air, signaling Xi'er to start. The blond witcher whipped out his silver sword and stared at the sword with a smile.

This exquisite weapon was a special weapon that he made a special trip to find Triss for help yesterday at the expense of his enjoyment time.

Although the sorceress repeatedly emphasized that the enchantment of this magic sword was Rootless Ping, and without magic replenishment, the effect would dissipate quickly, but Victor persisted and she agreed to help.

With the improvement of the understanding of magic and the skill of "magic alchemy", alchemists can now build and solidify magic circuits, absorb free magic power from the natural environment, and provide limited and continuous effects.

So there was this silver sword.

[Name: Tanshuang]

[Type: Weapon]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Attack power: strong]

[Characteristics: Increase sharpness, increase sharpness]

[Enchanting: Merigold’s Freeze]

[Note: One day, my life will reach its end. And you...wait...what do you want to do when you come over here! ? 】

[Remark 2: Merigold’s Freezing Technique. This magic is only one word different from “Merigard’s Hail Technique” and the user is the same. It can be called a sister magic. The sister is a legendary magic at the city level, and My sister is not bad either, she is unstoppable in the field of refrigeration and preservation. 】

"Putting aside whether it's strong or not, you can decide whether it's handsome or not! I have to say that this sword is downright handsome!"

──Sapiens. Ignis

The once-splendid building has declined into today's ruins, and the five-story tower bears witness to the past of the elves.

The thick fog dissipated, whether it was the pursuit of the wind or the unwillingness of the earth to hold back.

In this swamp, when the sorceress began to cast spells, the clouds slowly gathered in the sky and thunderbolts sounded. The tide of magic was breathing like life, and the seats were floating in the air against this flow. Tanshavier seemed to have a light shining in his eyes, and his clothes were fluttering with unparalleled power!

Under her guidance, lightning struck into the water one after another, one after another!

Then this section of the river suddenly swelled up, no... it wasn't the river that swelled up, but a giant octopus monster appeared!

Eyes widened, this was the second time Victor had seen this guy, but the first time he was so close.

Any creature that is big enough can only be looked up at.

Imagine that just ahead, less than a basketball court away, a three-story-high monster suddenly rises up, and this monster just looks like an octopus, and with one strike of its tentacles, it can turn a person from a three-dimensional plane to a two-dimensional plane, and ascend to heaven with dignity!

When Squidward made his shining debut, no one noticed that Corleone's mouth was raised with a bright smile, "Damn it! I love the fantasy world!"

The Alder seal was activated, and the silver sword "Sigh Frost" glowed blue and exuded a biting cold air. The arc-shaped sword hilt decorated with skulls extended a series of magic threads to wrap around the wrist.

Amid the rumbling sound of the earth shaking, the giant octopus monster moved towards the shore step by step, with lightning hitting its body.

The window-sized eyes rotated flexibly and quickly found the suspect who might have caused this situation. It glared at the two little people on the ground fiercely.

"Tiger!" The tentacles were raised high.

Watching it fall heavily, feeling the acceleration of the swing, the witcher dodged in time at the last moment, letting the tentacles smash the ground into a columnar mark!

Victor dodged in time, and Geralt was not ambiguous on the other side. He smashed Geralt's tentacles, but not only did he not hit the white wolf, but he hit the giant octopus monster's trap.

"Ji-ka!!!" The sharp teeth mixed with black steel bit ruthlessly, and the monster roared earth-shakingly, and the tentacle was bitten off.

Unfortunately, it was the part closer to the tail end, so although that one became shorter, it still had a strong killing power.

And as everyone knows, there is only one earth, and the octopus has 8 tentacles..., so this level of injury is just the beginning for the battle.

Of course, confirming that the tentacles waving in the sky by Squidward were not as hard as imagined, and the trap could easily bite off and cause effective damage, Victor was relieved and began to imitate Geralt standing next to the trap to lure the tentacles to hit.

After waving several times in a row without success, suddenly, Squidward raised his body slightly, exposing his chrysanthemum-like mouthparts and aiming at Victor, just like when he was about to have diarrhea, he squirmed and wrinkled!

"Be careful! He's going to shoot!" Geralt shouted loudly.

The chrysanthemums were in full bloom. To be honest, he didn't need to remind me. The scene was really adrenaline-fueled. Victor's potential burst out in an instant, and he kicked his right foot hard to move five yards horizontally.

The next second, the black venom spurted out from the chrysanthemums... no, from the mouthparts, and the surging fountain sprinkled on the ground with spots, emitting a fishy smell.

Even if he was protected by the mongoose potion and would not die from being sprayed, Victor felt that being shot would have a shadow on his life...

Xi'er, who was standing on a high place, had his eyes lit up. Just at that moment, Victor's speed actually left an afterimage, which showed his strong physical fitness. It was right to list him as the first choice for the king killer. If it were him, he would not be like this now...

The witcher who continued to dodge took a glance at the sorceress on the top of the cliff. She was high above and guiding the barrier. Lightning struck the giant octopus monster one by one, forcing it to not retreat into the water.

The flow of magic in the air could not escape Victor's perception. He suddenly realized that the use of this solidified barrier had many similarities with the Aden Seal.

If it were other ordinary witchers, they would not be able to experience this similarity at all, but after the second mutation of the "magic sense", Victor could easily master the flow of magic.

Sure enough, as the projection of the Azulie Tower said, the seal is an extremely simple spell! In other words, if I can add some magic circuits, maybe I can also achieve an effect close to that of a spell?

Although he was fighting, Victor still had time to think, because the tentacles flying all over the sky and the venom sprayed by the mouthparts were all reflected in the Nine Magatama Sharingan, without any omission.

In just a few minutes, the octopus had five tentacles that were amputated to varying degrees because of the trap.

At this moment, Victor suddenly had a warning sign in his heart, and he jumped up high to avoid the sweep of Squidward's tentacles.

The effect of this sudden attack was quite significant. Although it did not hit the witcher, it swept away the remaining traps without any damage. Then he roared again, raised his body to expose his mouthparts, and sprayed venom horizontally, and he had to retreat to dodge.

These two waves of actions were obviously new reactions learned in response to the opponent's actions in the battle. It seems that this Squidward does have basic wisdom.

Victor avoided while waiting for the instructions of his predecessors to see if he had any good methods after losing the trap. As expected, the hundred-year witcher was not in vain, and the Sword of Destiny would not disappoint people.

"Wick, Aden Seal. Binding mode! We use the silver sword to cut the tentacles!"

Geralt's instructions were heard, and the young man understood. Although Squidward's body contained magic power, it was just natural magic entanglement, and chaos could not be used at all. Aden Seal can indeed produce miraculous effects on it.

Under normal conditions, Aden Seal forms a slow barrier. When switched to the binding mode, the highly compressed seal has a locking effect. Geralt's intention is very clear. Step by step, he will cut Squidward into an octopus stick!

The binding mode of the Yerden Seal requires a little time to condense magic power. Considering the suspicious lady above, Victor deliberately slowed down the condensation speed of Yerden Seal a little bit more than Geralt.

When the next wave of sweeps attacked again, the tentacles hit the Yerden Binding Seal, and the magic power exploded, instantly fixing the tentacles firmly.

Perhaps the sweep can uproot the trap, but the binding seal formed by magic power is integrated with the ground within a radius of one meter, and no matter how strong the physical strength is, it can't do anything.

Geralt and Victor, two witchers, each launched an inhumane slash at the part fixed by the seal. How can the soft tentacles resist the ruthlessness of the silver sword? Three or four heavy slashes can cut off a section.

Such a powerful seal has only one disadvantage. First, after the binding seal is connected and fixed, the next one cannot be used before it is triggered. Secondly, it has a high-frequency flash, which looks very dangerous. Creatures with a little bit of intelligence will not step on it. It can only be used against monsters with large-scale attacks.

Found that the two little people not only did not show signs of being beaten into meat patties, but gradually approached their own body. The giant octopus monster felt the crisis and stepped back step by step against the lightning, trying to break the barrier and retreat back to the water.

"Haha! Darling, stay here, don't think about leaving like this!" Xi'er, standing on a high place, opened her arms and activated the barrier to firmly block the monster's retreat. Victor also took this opportunity to more deeply feel the large magic circle she cast.

...

The giant octopus is dying frantically!

Knowing that venom and tentacles cannot stop the witcher from approaching, it swung hard at the ruins beams next to it, and rolled up the fallen stones and threw them.

The tiger's strong wind was flying, and the monster seemed to have turned into a continuous catapult, which was far more dangerous than directly attacking with tentacles.

If the octopus had used this trick at the beginning, perhaps the battle would have been more difficult, but now that it was close enough, after dodging a few stones, Geralt took the lead in using his bomb and threw it at the monster's eyes.

The slimy eyeballs of the aquatic creature clearly reflected the outline of the approaching honeycomb, and then exploded!

The monster let out the loudest roar or scream since the war began, and Victor threw a honeycomb to blow off its other eye.

The monster, which had lost its vision, could no longer launch a systematic counterattack. It could only wave its tentacles, which were gradually shortening, wildly, smashing the ruins into a shaky and shattering state!

At this point, the three of them knew that if there were no accidents, victory would be a foregone conclusion.

The last accident of this battle was a broken beam, which was not only heavy but also pointed downward when it fell, and hit the giant octopus's head hard, creating a large hole with body fluids gushing out.

Seeing this hole, Victor held the bullet in his right hand without Geralt's reminder, and Corleone grinned.

Pushing the ground backward with his back foot!

Twisting the waist, turning the body, swinging the arms, pressing the wrists, all in one go!

The "enhanced hornet's nest" drew a beautiful arc in the air and flew accurately into the hole above the monster's head.

In this second, time seemed to be compressed and condensed, and it seemed so slow!

"Bang! Puff!"

The next second, countless body fluids gushed out of the hole.

The giant octopus suddenly shook, and the movement that was still strong and swift in the last second suddenly became slow and trembling like an "old man".

It was three o'clock in the afternoon, and this was the scene.

Out of some kind of emotion, no one attacked it again, and tacitly stopped and waited for the end of this huge existence.

Plur, plur, the tentacles twitched weakly for a few times, it raised its body and howled a long groan, and collapsed with a bang.

In the smoke and dust, the witcher shook off the slime on the sword and stood proudly.
