The new era of mankind with destiny in hand at the end of the world

Chapter 256: Encountering the Mutated 8-clawed Fish Again

Looking at the broken crab shells and bright yellow crab roe left on the ground, An Ning knew that time was running out and she couldn't stay here for too long.

Since crabs can come ashore, other marine creatures can too.

"We shouldn't stay here for long. Let's get in the car and leave." An Ning gave the order decisively.

No wonder they didn’t encounter any zombies after entering the port. It turned out that this place has become the territory of mutated marine creatures.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Everyone understood that only by leaving here as soon as possible could they avoid further danger.

When leaving, An Ning thought that her physique was not afraid of what everyone was talking about as the zombie virus, so she collected some of the mutated crab bodies that they had killed, intending to try them out when she had time when she got home.

After some effort, An Ning led the team to successfully find sufficient food, water, cold-proof clothing and other survival necessities.

These supplies can ensure that the team can survive safely in the days to come.

The search operation was fruitful. Not only did it meet their living needs for the next period of time, but they also found enough warm supplies to withstand the severe cold.

After everything was ready, An Ning decided to lead the team back to the base.

However, just as An Ning and his group were about to reach the location of the vehicle, an unexpected change occurred.

A strong air current surged in from the sea, creating huge waves that shook the world.

Then, a mutant octopus of shocking size appeared before them.

An Ning was shocked. The size of this mutant octopus seemed to be even bigger than the one she had encountered at the beach!

Its tentacles are as hard as steel, and can easily destroy everything around them with a slight wave.

Faced with such mutated marine life, An Ning realized that the situation was becoming extremely critical.

The mutated octopus danced its eight tentacles mercilessly and launched a fierce attack on An Ning and others.

The tentacles swept in like a violent storm, leaving people nowhere to escape.

"Disperse quickly!" An Ning shouted anxiously, "Find buildings as cover and protect yourself!" Upon hearing the order, the team members quickly dispersed.

But unfortunately, two of the team members were unable to dodge and were tightly entangled by the mutant octopus's tentacles.

Gao Lin activated her supernatural power, and a wave of wooden spikes shot out from her hands and rushed directly towards the mutant octopus.

Although this attack did not cause much harm to the mutant octopus, it temporarily attracted the mutant octopus's attention.

However, it did not let go of the two people who were caught in its claws. It quickly waved its other tentacles, one of which hit Gao Lin hard, knocking her away.

Gao Lin fell heavily to the ground, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his face turned as pale as paper.

She tried to stand up, but the severe pain in her body made it almost impossible for her to move.

At this moment, the mutant octopus's tentacles rose and fell again, striking Gao Lin who was lying on the ground, as if to give her a fatal blow.

At the critical moment, Zhang Ren stepped forward and used his gold-based ability to form a shield to block the fatal blow.

He endured a huge impact and his internal organs shook, but he also successfully protected Gao Lin behind him.

Gao Lin ignored the pain in her body and struggled to stand up.

She looked at Zhang Ren with gratitude and said, "Thank you, Zhang Ren."

Zhang Ren asked with concern: "Are you okay? Are you injured?"

Gao Lin wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said through gritted teeth: "I'm fine! But this guy is very strong, we must be careful!"

Seeing Gao Lin being rescued by Zhang Ren, An Ning felt relieved.

She leaped up and rushed towards the mutant octopus like a cannonball.

She nimbly dodged a tentacle that was swinging towards her, then swung the sword in her hand, injected spiritual power into it, and chopped hard at the mutant octopus's tentacle that was wrapping around the person.

At the same time, the other team members also picked up their swords and took the opportunity to attack the mutant octopus's tentacles at the same time, trying to rescue the trapped person.

They worked closely together and cooperated tacitly, and launched a fierce battle with the mutant octopus.

“Dang…Dang”

The mutant octopus's skin is extremely tough, and ordinary weapons can do nothing to it.

Even a sharp Tang sword could only leave a shallow scar on its surface.

However, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Sword in An Ning's hand, which was infused with spiritual power, was completely different. It easily cut off the thick tentacle.

After successfully rescuing one person, An Ning sent out another thunder ball, directly attacking the mutant octopus's head.

Not only did one of its tentacle get broken, but it was also hit by An Ning's thunder ball. Now the mutant octopus's attention was finally focused on this little guy An Ning.

After seeing An Ning's appearance clearly, the mutant octopus suddenly became extremely excited, as if it had been greatly stimulated. It roared at An Ning, and at the same time, its tentacles began to dance wildly.

An Ning noticed the changes in the mutant octopus, but because they were a group of different races, An Ning really couldn't recognize that the mutant octopus in front of her was the one she had injured.

Moreover, the mutated octopus now looks much larger than before. Its abilities have been improved, so its size has increased again.

However, the fact that An Ning didn't recognize it didn't stop it from remembering An Ning who almost made it teppanyaki.

With new hatred and old grudges added to it, the mutant octopus completely gave up on everyone else. Its eight thick tentacles, with the sound of sharp wind, attacked An Ning together.

An Ning's eyes were calm. She jumped flexibly in the air like an agile swallow, skillfully avoiding every attack of the octopus.

Although the octopus is extremely fast, An Ning always manages to dodge it at the critical moment. Her movements are as natural and smooth as flowing water, as if she had already anticipated the octopus's attack trajectory.

While dodging the octopus's attack, An Ning recalled the new sword skills he had learned.

She felt that this was a perfect opportunity to try out the power of this sword technique.

So, she decided to let the others stay where they were and continue to move the supplies, while she would lead the mutant octopus to an open area.

An Ning kept jumping and dodging as the octopus chased her, while at the same time cautiously fighting and retreating.

Soon, An Ning successfully led the mutant octopus to an open space.

She stopped and turned to face the octopus.

"You two wait here and don't come over." An Ning said to Anzi and Xiaohua who followed her and wanted to help.

"Yes Master"

"Okay, Master"

The two pets stood aside obediently.

Then, An Ning stopped dodging. She gripped the sword tightly in her hand and stared at the mutated octopus in front of her.
