Struggle in the Steam Age

The book that the sahuagin prince took out from the space equipment was a very weird-looking book. The reason for saying this was because the book cover of this book did not look like a normal book cover at all, but looked like a large pile of long books. Tentacles full of suckers, eyes of different sizes and colors, and some golden amber are poured together.

After he opened the cover of this big book, this weird feeling became more obvious, because the pages and cover in the book seemed to be made of the same material, but it was thinner than the book cover. But the strangest thing is that the pages in the book seem to be glued together, and only one place can be opened.

On this page, those things that seem to be a lot of tentacles covered with suction cups and compound eyes are wriggling quickly, forming characters that are constantly wriggling on the page.

Normal people can't see what these things represent at all. But the sahuagin prince showed an extremely exaggerated smile after seeing these characters, and then uttered a series of shrieking sounds in a sharp and extremely complex and changeable tone.

As those characters were spit out from the prince's mouth bit by bit, the book in his hand was further activated. One after another, extremely weird three-dimensional runes emerged from the opened page, and then formed tentacles made of pure energy one after another in the air, spreading around the book centered on it.

At the beginning, the sahuagin who heard those strange voices were a little dizzy. But when he saw those very powerful tentacles emerging from the magic item in his prince's hand, he still cheered. They believe that with the help of these powerful forces, they should be able to quickly break through the current defense line.

But just a few seconds later, the previous cheers turned into screams, because those tentacles full of power did not attack the human defense team on the cliff as the sahuayu people imagined, but directly from them. Penetrated their bodies behind and proceeded to strip them of everything they had.

In an instant, the command core of the sahuagin became confused. Some of the murlocs tried to use their own power to wake up the sahuagin prince who was suspended in the sea and seemed to have passed out through the defense line formed by the energy tentacles flying around, while the other part ran in the opposite direction. Try to get out of the heart of the mess.

But the speed and intensity of those tentacles spreading out far exceeded everyone's expectations, so in just a few tens of seconds, all the sahuagin around the prince were strung together equally by the flying tentacles. A series, no matter whether they want to escape or want to get closer.

The energy and flesh of the sahuagin who were worn on the tentacles one after another provided a steady stream of energy for the source of the tentacles, and after obtaining these energy, more and more tentacles protruded from the book, and the movements of simultaneous actions Also faster and faster. In just a few minutes, the command core of the original sahuagin was swept away.

"Something is wrong." At this time, Nora, who was flying in the sky and playing hide-and-seek with the summoned flying monsters, suddenly looked at a certain sea, and at the same time said to Lawrence through the spiritual connection. "I feel as if there is a being full of chaos and death appearing under the sea."

"This may be the decisive force prepared by the group of sahuayu people." Hearing what Nora said, Lawrence said immediately. "The sahuayu people must have something to rely on to use their elites to attack this terrain that is completely unfavorable to them. Otherwise, they wouldn't be rushing desperately like they are now."

While Lawrence was communicating with Nora, the soldiers around them were still using their weapons to shoot at the sahuagin rushing up in all directions.

Because there are not many bunkers around, a large number of sahuayu people climbing towards the cliff are exposed to the high-speed flying metal blocks produced by the explosion of bullets and shells, and then they are knocked down in pieces. into the sea.

But on the other hand, because the sahuagin sprinted regardless of casualties. Lawrence also had to command the soldiers to retreat step by step and shrink the line of defense to avoid being broken by the enemy.

If someone looks down from the sky at this time, they will find that the soldiers who were originally distributed around the entire bay have now been compressed into two circular fortifications with a diameter of less than 30 meters.

"Since the situation ahead is a bit suspicious, I think it's better to prepare for some things in advance." After looking at the situation on the battlefield, Lawrence said, "At least I think the soldiers can retreat in advance now, after all, the senior The battlefield of extraordinary people is not something they can mix in."

After speaking, Lawrence took out a flare gun from his arms and fired two green flares into the sky. After seeing the signal, all the soldiers in the two defensive circles immediately moved away two or three stones in the defensive circle to expose the Several tunnels, and then lined up into the tunnels in order.

Of course, the firepower on the ground was immediately weakened in this way. After discovering this, the sahuayu who were attacking frantically below immediately stepped up their offensive, crossed the previous defensive line like a tide, and then quickly rushed into the bay behind the position.

Just when all the soldiers had just withdrawn, a large number of sahuayu people also showed their heads from the edge of the cliff. Seeing this scene, Lawrence immediately grabbed Nora's hand and prepared to use any door to evacuate here. But when he was halfway through casting the spell, the group of sahuagin rushing towards him frantically in front of him suddenly became confused.

"What happened?" Lawrence and Nora looked at each other as they watched the sahuagin fleeing in all directions. Both sides saw the obvious puzzled look in the other's eyes. "Could it be that there was a problem when the monster was summoned from behind the sahuagin just now, and the monster lost control?"

Thinking of this, Nora immediately flew into the sky and looked towards the direction of the sea. As a result, a large number of tentacles rushed out of the sea from the bottom of the sea in front of them, and then crazily stretched towards the sky and all around. Around this group of tentacles, countless sahuagin fled frantically towards the surroundings.

It's a pity that those tentacles move much faster than the sahuagin swimming in the water, so a large number of sahuagin were pierced by a tentacle before they could swim far, and then Amidst the loud screams, it was first taken to the sky by the tentacles, and finally pulled back to the water.

At the same time, the main body of the monster began to emerge from the sea little by little. However, unlike Nora's previous image, what was attached below the tentacles was not the octopus-like monster he imagined, but looked more like a sea urchin covered with tentacles all over its body.

The sea urchin is surrounded by tentacles that seem to be covered in green slime, but if you look closely, you will find that these tentacles are completely composed of a large amount of flesh, bones, scales and skin.

And on the outside of all this, the blood that should have been flowing everywhere was bound to the tentacles by some force, forming a light blue skin that was flowing.

"What the hell is this?" Lawrence, who shared vision with the puppet through the soul connection, exclaimed immediately after seeing this scene. "Nora, do you have any information related to this monster?"

"Well——I can swear this is the first time I've seen such a thing." Nora said to Lawrence as she approached the monster, and at the same time passed a large number of high-resolution detailed pictures to him. "But this thing is purely composed of sahuagin corpses. I guess it should be an undead creature like a stitch monster."
