Quick Transmigration and Childbirth: The Target is Not Human
Chapter 35 The Tentacle Monster's Runaway Bride
Lightning bolted through the clouds, tearing the thick cloud layer apart.
The original base collapsed, creating an empty space.
Enemy fighters flying low in the sky strafed the enemy, only to be charred by lightning bolts reaching tens of thousands of volts. Tanks ambushed from all sides; those nearby were crushed by tentacles as thick as pythons, while those further away were struck by lightning.
From then on, no one dared to make any rash moves.
A 500-meter radius encirclement was formed around the enormous tentacle monster.
Blood from Xia Yangyang's abdomen flowed into Victor's palm, dripping onto the ground through his fingers. She felt the two arms holding her trembling.
"It's okay, it's okay..."
"Don't be afraid, Yangyang, everything will be alright. I'll take you back to the sea... With the Heart of the Ocean, I'll use it to save you. You'll definitely be alright..."
Its massive, mountain-like body hunched over, as if deceiving itself, repeatedly wiping away the flowing blood with its tentacles.
The movements were almost mechanical.
As the rain began to fall, Victor instinctively leaned forward to shield her from the rain, while she held Ian tightly in her arms.
Corpses littered the ground.
A dark, humanoid creature was lifted into the air by tentacles, swaying back and forth like a tattered rag.
"Where is the Heart of the Ocean?" Victor didn't even take his eyes off the person in his arms.
The female PhD student's neck was twisted, and her red hair was stuck to her face, making her look like a female ghost crawling out of hell.
"Naughty children have no right to make wishes. If I die, you'll never find the Heart of the Ocean." She laughed bitterly, her gaze falling on his chest. "Without the Heart of the Ocean, no one can live..."
Victor, the first mutated tentacle monster, was trained for ten years as an SS-class dangerous weapon.
It is Jiang Li's proudest scientific research achievement and the crystallization of her wisdom. Even though it has implicated countless innocent soldiers and caused the deaths of two generations of her life, humanity will still honor her as a "great explorer of biological genetics".
What she didn't understand was the light blue hem of the dress that it was protecting in its arms.
In human thought, the value of things and personal interests are paramount. Even a child in the womb can be aborted, so how could a human being... feel maternal love for a clump of cells growing in a petri dish?
Victor's features resemble hers, his personality resembles hers, and even his eyes resemble hers.
She would be proud of Victor when he successfully undertook one genetic modification after another; she would feel sorry for Victor when he didn't cherish his genes and wasted them on the love and affection of a human woman...
But she couldn't generate the same kind of maternal love as 10086.
Is the emotional bond that develops between humans and experimental subjects an isolated phenomenon among the subjects? Or is it only between 10086 and Victor?
Ah, in any case, the obedience of zookeepers in training dangerous experimental subjects will be a topic worth exploring. Once results are achieved, human biological genetics will take a leap forward into the next century.
Xia Yangyang tugged at Victor's hair, and he immediately lowered his head, his feathered fins pressed against her lips.
"In her... severed hand." Her voice was weak and soft, and she repeated herself, afraid he might not hear her clearly, "The Heart of the Ocean, in her severed hand."
Without any evidence, perhaps she was just near death and confused, but Victor still believed her: "Okay..."
She groaned in discomfort, and Victor tensed up immediately.
The tentacles moved cleanly and swiftly, ripping off the female doctor's entire arm, causing bloody fluids to splatter out.
"Aaaaaahh ...
A bolt of lightning struck precisely, silencing the scream abruptly. A dark, mangled mass of flesh fell to the ground, lifeless.
Victor grabbed Xia Yangyang and ran quickly toward the sea, each step accompanied by the crackling sound of electric arcs.
Xia Yangyang held her severed hand in her left hand, suppressing her nausea, and with her right hand holding a knife, she cut along the path indicated by the system.
However, beneath the charred flesh of the black charcoal, there was only a hollow silver metal cavity, not the Heart of the Ocean. In her haste, she slashed open the entire severed arm, but still found no Heart of the Ocean.
There is a clear ring of teeth marks on the mechanically modified elbow, indicating that the joint cavity has been bitten open.
The tide rose, washing over Victor's waist.
Xia Yangyang turned around and slapped the seawater on the shore onto the charred corpse.
Could it be...?
Xia Yangyang hugged Ian tightly, tugged at Victor's hair forcefully, and said with all her might, "Victor, turn back quickly, don't go into the sea!"
It's too late.
Countless seagulls were startled and took flight from the sea surface; in just a few seconds, the seawater turned from sapphire blue to inky black.
The ground trembled.
It seemed as if some enormous deep-sea creature, as large as a Cretaceous dinosaur, had crawled up, a dark mass of it.
"Hehehehehe..."
On the beach, a pitch-black "coke" stood up unsteadily.
"How could you treat your own mother like that, Victor..."
Victor frowned and turned around at the sound.
He seemed surprised by the woman's vitality; she was ashes but still alive.
Two dazzling pink beams of light shot out from her two empty eye sockets.
It turned out that the moment the tentacle twisted off the arm, the woman bit through the flesh and deep metal cavity of the arm and swallowed the Heart of the Ocean.
The Heart of the Ocean needs to be submerged in water to function, and the rising tide undoubtedly provides the perfect opportunity.
No wonder lightning couldn't kill them.
Hao Lang's footsteps, mixed with thick, heavy breathing, came from behind.
Xia Yangyang craned her neck to look, and after seeing it clearly, her scalp tingled.
No, that dark mass... wasn't some giant monster, but the countless people of Atlantis.
They all had blank, lifeless eyes and held various "weapons." Some of them had familiar faces; I remembered them often following Victor around.
She also saw Elder Turtle…the mermaid maid who rescued her from the underwater tremors, the big sister of the trench, and the maid who had always taken care of Ian…
Xia Yangyang recognized them all.
She immediately looked up at Victor. The wind blew his silver hair around his neck. His face was expressionless, but he took two steps back.
Several mermaid warriors rushed forward and attacked. He did not fight back but dodged. When he found an opportunity, he grabbed them and threw them back into the sea with his tentacles.
During the fight, Xia Yangyang was well protected, and her hair was not even messed up.
She stared at the female PhD student, feeling nothing but terror.
The Heart of the Ocean allowed her to grow flesh and blood again, but it was as if something was burning it, and the newly grown flesh and blood melted inch by inch, with droplets flowing into the sand.
Like overcooked crab sticks just pulled out of a hot pot.
The system coughed twice, giving a evasive answer: "[Ah... this is the Ocean Heart's self-protection mechanism. If a land-based creature uses it, it will be cursed, its entire body festering like it's been burned.]"
Xia Yangyang touched Ian's cheek: [Luckily, Ian has ocean blood.]
The system gave a stiff, forced smile: [Yes, yes.]
"Hahahaha..." The mad doctor burst into dazzling pink light, laughing uncontrollably. "So this is the power of the ocean... I have inexhaustible power!"
"Kneel down and apologize to your mother—!!!!"
Suddenly, the people launched a fierce attack, overwhelming everything in their path.
Victor erected a hemispherical electric grid, and his ferocious subjects were electrocuted to death. The stench of burning flesh filled the grid with an overwhelming intensity.
Seemingly sensing the unease in the girl's arms, Victor gently patted her back: "Yangyang, don't be afraid."
Xia Yangyang's gaze swept over the unfamiliar faces outside the power grid—young, old, male, and female—whose flesh had been burned alive by high-voltage lightning.
Her eyes reddened, and a great sorrow and anger welled up in her chest.
Why? Why would Heaven grant such evil humans the opportunity to seize power? Aren't these lives innocent?
Even when the two countries are at war, they do not kill envoys, and when they conquer cities, they rarely massacre civilians.
They actually used this method to... force Victor into a desperate situation.
If all the creatures in the ocean obeyed the mad doctor's commands, they would be unable to return to the ocean, let alone stay on land. This would be an unsolvable problem!
Xia Yangyang lowered her head into the gloom.
Xia Yangyang: [Blocks pain sensation.]
System: [OK]
Xia Yangyang: [I'll buy another pair of running shoes.]
System: [What do you want to do?]
Xia Yangyang gently placed her palm on Xiao Ian's left chest, on the dried blood hole.
Through the Zuramo sparks of the electric grid, his gaze, like a cold, scalpel, pierced the female doctor's direction.
Xia Yangyang: [I'm going to dig out the Heart of the Ocean.]
System: [Are you crazy?! Your body is completely rotten; you can't even run. Buying you shoes won't help!]
Xia Yangyang: [I have a way.]
