Lenny hung against the side of the ship with one hand as he used the other to hold Victor by the arm.
"So, you are Victor! Can you take me to the Primordial beast?"
"Huh!?"
"What you don't understand words? I need you to take me to the Primordial Beast. Can you do that?" Lenny asked again.
Victor was at a loss for words. He did not know what to say.
"So is that a Yes or a No. I really need to know if I should just let you go now."
"Huh!?" However, before Victor could say a word, Lenny let him go.
"I'm Victor! I'm Victor!! Please don't let it eat me."
Lenny caught him again.
"So do we have a deal?"
"Yes! Yes!! I'll help you meet the Primordial Beast. Please, don't just let me fall. I'll help you."
Lenny's eyes brightened. "Good! Thanks a lot."
At this time, the Octopus's giant eyes sighted Lenny.
As it did, the image of Lenny was made focus in it's pupils.
And an Ethereal voice echoed lowly in the air, like a whisper in the air
"Lenny... Tales!"
Lenny heard it. He paused and turned to the creature.
He raised a brow at it. After all, this creature was talking.
It was not supposed to be talking.
At least, Lenny had never heard speech from any mutated beast before. "What the hell are you?"
"Capture..."
That was the only word the Octopus replied with as it stretched it's tendrils to grab Lenny.
However, Lenny leaned away, dodging the assault while still holding Victor.
Lenny suddenly threw Victor in the air, "Perseus, catch!"
Victor screamed, but before he landed, another hand grabbed him by his hoodie.
It was Perseus.
He flung Victor in the air like he was a hand bag.
Victor screamed all the while.
Fear enveloped him and he closed his eyes tightly, and the next time he opened them, he was already on the ground.
The first thing he did was to pat various parts of his body to make sure that they were still in order.
Seeing that they were, he sighed in relief.
"Victor!" Moses called to him.
Victor turned about. Not far away was the injured Moses.
He immediately ran to help him up.
Meanwhile, on the walls of the city wall, Cannons had been laid, all of them pointing at the Mutated beast.
These Canons had blue glowing runes on their bodies like it was decorations.
"Fire!" The order was given.
A volley of Blue Energy blasts was suddenly fired at the creature.
Each blast was like miniature versions of the sun.
*BOOM*BOOM*BOOM*
The beast wailed in pain at the attack.
Meanwhile, Lenny and Perseus created a bit of distance from the creature.
Lenny looked upon the walls. He was actually impressed with what he saw.
These energy Cannons were very effective, drilling into the body of the giant mutated beast like it was acid.
However, Lenny was only bothered that he was within the shot range of the canons.
Quickly, he distanced himself as much as he could.
However, the Giant Octopus took note of this.
It waved it's tendrils and tentacles around, in an attempt to grab Lenny, but lenny dodged skillfully.
Meanwhile, on the walls, another other was given.
"Reload!"
The Guards all removed a vial of blue liquid and put it into the chamber on the canons.
Instantly, Blue runes came to life once more and the Canons roared with energy to blast once more.
However, the giant octopus's eyes gleamed with intelligence as it looked at the walls.
Before the order could be given to fire, it's flesh opened up and tendrils rushed for the walls.
The Guard giving the order suddenly froze as a tendril pierced into his head.
He froze in shock at this.
Blood flowed from the hole in his head as brain matter flushed out behind his skull, a result of the force the tendril used to charge into his head.
"Commander!" One of the guards screamed.
However, even before any of them could act, Tendrils all found themselves in their skulls.
Lenny saw this and frowned, but even worse, he could see the look on the face of the beast.
Lenny did not want to believe this, buy he could tell that the Octopus was smiling.
It then turned to him, "Lenny... Tales! Capture..."
It's speech was slow but Lenny was not so stupid that he did not know that this creature was after him.
"You want me Crap face, then come dance with this daddy."
Lenny's blades made a swish sound as unsheathed them running for the beast.
As he did, the creature attacked with it's tendrils and big tentacles.
Lenny with his speed and strength, was only barely able to dodge.
Lenny frowned.
He could see it clearly with Surveyor.
This giant octopus had strength level of the Deep demon level.
Unlike Magi that only had magic power of that rank, this mutated creature had both.
From what Lenny had seen, one hit from any of those tendrils meant a punch from a Deep level Demon.
This was bad news. After all, Lenny was really strong, but he had only ever fought Magi of the Deep demon level.
A beast that could deliver a punch with that power, could easily put a hole in his body.
Meanwhile, Perseus also advanced for the creature.
Considering his low rank, he was actually doing very good for himself.
A plan suddenly bloomed in Lenny's head.
"Perseus!" He called out, "distract it!!"
Perseus was a Gladiator like Lenny.
He quickly understood what Lenny meant.
Sparks of lightning screamed out from his eyes and through his hands, he shot them right into the face of the Octopus.
Most of the beast's body was strong and tough, but it's eyes was an apparent weakness that Perseus could not miss.
Naturally, the beasts attention was pulled to him.
Like a bullet leaving the barrel of a gun, a tendril shot for him.
"Oh Fuck me!" Perseus cursed.
