Chapter 220 Yan Qian is seriously injured
The giant octopus's two eyeballs kept turning as the helicopter and two fighter jets moved, and it would occasionally twitch its tentacles.
It was less of an observation and more of a wait for the perfect moment to attack.
Sure enough, Zhou Yang below had just caught his breath when he heard a huge explosion above him. Looking up, he saw that one of the helicopters had been hit in the fuel tank and wing by the tentacles of a giant octopus and exploded in mid-air.
The pilots inside might not even have had time to react before being blown to pieces in the explosion.
Even though they were dozens of meters apart, Zhou Yang could almost feel the fear of death.
Seeing that only two fighter jets remained out of the three planes, Yan Qian stopped waiting. He exchanged a glance with Yan Fei, then made a hand gesture to the others. Under the cover of the others, he used his metal ability to conjure a chain with darts and slammed the other end into the giant octopus.
Because the giant octopus was so large and had such thick skin, Yan Qian and Yan Fei's movements were like ants crawling on an elephant, causing it no pain or itch at all.
While its attention was focused on the helicopter, it didn't even notice that two tiny humans had climbed onto its body.
Or perhaps it discovered them but didn't take them seriously, because humans are far too insignificant to it, not worth mentioning at all.
As Yan Qian and Yan Fei struggled to climb the ranks, another fighter jet was lost.
However, before sacrificing themselves, the fighter pilots delivered the remaining ammunition on the giant octopus, buying Yan Qian and Yan Fei a little more time.
Only one fighter jet remained in the sky, engaged in combat.
Looking at the last remaining fighter jet, everyone couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the pilot of the remaining fighter jet learned from the mistakes of the first two and did not fly along the fixed route. Instead, he changed to flying up and down, left and right, successfully making the giant octopus spin around and its waving tentacles look extremely irritating.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yan Qian and Yan Fei finally managed to climb to the top of the giant octopus from the back.
After roughly locating the possible position of the octopus's brain, each of them swung a knife down.
Unfortunately, the head was too hard, and the knife couldn't penetrate it at all. Even with Yan Fei's level 5 late-stage knife, it only managed to make a white mark, without even cutting through the flesh.
As expected, the hope of breaking through directly from the top of the head was too slim; we had to start with the eyes.
Perhaps because the sense of touch on its head is more sensitive, the giant octopus finally noticed the two humans above it at this moment, so it stopped and stretched out a tentacle to stroke the top of its head.
Fortunately, Yan Qian and his companion were prepared and successfully avoided the tentacles using the chains.
Seeing that it had failed to take down the two humans, the giant octopus got angry and started swinging several tentacles at its head.
Seeing this, Yan Qian and Yan Fei could only continue to dodge while trying to get closer to the giant octopus's eyes.
Unfortunately, the giant octopus seemed to be able to read their minds, and every time they got just a little closer, they were forced back by its tentacles.
After several attempts, both of them became somewhat restless.
Those below couldn't see the power struggle above and could only watch anxiously.
The helicopter pilot saw it clearly and was extremely anxious. Remembering the few rounds of ammunition he had left in his fighter jet, he didn't hesitate and fired directly at the giant octopus.
The giant octopus, already enraged by the munitions fired by the previous fighter jets, felt insulted to be blown up again, even though it didn't cause it much damage.
So it turned its attention back to the fighter jet, waving its tentacles and chasing after it, ignoring the two humans who were still running wild above its head.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to distract the giant octopus again, the Yan brothers, Yan Qian and Yan Fei, didn't delay any longer and quickly ran to the side closest to its eyes.
But the eyes are below, so the two of them have to jump down.
Because there is no place on the giant octopus's head for them to insert dart chains for fixation, the jump point must be directly above the eyes, and the moment they reach the eyes, they must throw the darts to pull themselves into the giant octopus's eyes.
Moreover, such an opportunity only comes once.
If they fail, the giant octopus will not give them another chance to get close to their eyes.
The two brothers took a deep breath and stood at the positions of their left and right eyes, respectively.
This was something the two of them had agreed on beforehand. To increase the success rate, each of them would be responsible for one eye, ensuring that at least one of them could complete the task.
Finding the best spot, the two exchanged one last look before resolutely jumping down, throwing their chains with all their might as soon as they landed at eye level.
Zhou Yang and the others below, who were constantly watching the movements above, held their breath as they watched the two people leap down, keeping a close eye on their every move, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
Two darts, each with its other end protruding, pierced the giant octopus's eyes almost simultaneously, successfully tearing through the corneal layer. Driven by inertia, they pulled the two people back towards the eyes.
Two grown men simply ripped their hands onto the giant octopus's eyes. For the giant octopus, this was like a small flying insect getting into a human's eye—not a major injury, but extremely uncomfortable.
It immediately abandoned the fighter jet that was making it rage, stopped in place, and waved its tentacles toward its eyes, trying to get rid of the two worm-like things inside.
But things that get into the eyes are not so easy to clean. I swept with my tentacles for a long time, but it didn't have any effect. In fact, the two bugs seemed to be trying to burrow deeper into the eyes.
The giant octopus panicked and roared, unleashing a surge of energy from within its body.
The massive energy ball shot straight at the giant octopus's head, causing the two people who were still trying to climb into its eyes to cough up blood.
But this did not make the two give up; instead, they worked even harder to scrape away the membrane from their eyes.
Finally, Yan Fei made a hole big enough to fit himself, took a deep breath, and immediately crawled in, heading straight for the giant octopus's brain.
Sensing that one of the tentacles had already entered its eyes and was heading towards its brain, the giant octopus disregarded its eyes and directly plunged its two tentacles into its eyes.
Because Yan Fei entered earlier, he had already touched the other end of the eyeball before the tentacles arrived, and was finding a suitable position to break through the eyeball and go to the brain tissue.
Yan Fei saw the tentacles pierce in, and even deliberately stood in the position he had chosen, dodging them as soon as they came, thus effortlessly allowing the tentacles to open a passage for him.
While the tentacles continued searching his eyeballs, Yan Fei darted through the large hole pierced by the tentacles and went directly to the brain tissue.
Compared to Yan Fei's smooth sailing, Yan Qian was not so lucky.
Just as he had made enough opening and crawled in halfway, he was caught by a tentacle that had pierced through. Seeing that he was about to be caught, he desperately tried to crawl in. After finally getting his whole body in, he thought he was safe and turned around to swim inside.
But he never expected that the giant octopus would be so ruthless as to pierce his eyes directly. By the time he realized something was wrong, his abdomen had already been pierced through.
The intense pain caused him to choke on his breath.
Then, as a large amount of blood was lost from the body, it stained the surrounding transparent liquid red.
Images of my wife and son, as well as my parents and family, kept flashing through my mind...
Scenes from the past flashed through my mind like a fleeting glimpse, until my consciousness was plunged into darkness.
