Chapter 45 Idiot Hero
(Why is it a tentacle monster!!!!)
Seeing that monster, Lonis’s legs instinctively chilled.
She subconsciously wanted to run away, but the young ladies were all watching from behind… If she ran away, what face would she have left?
So even if she had to bite the bullet, Lonis could only go.
“Damn monster, don’t block our path.”
“Hero Your Highness is so handsome!”
“Go, go!”
Everyone was cheering her on, and what about Lonis? She also rushed forward, trying to scare the tentacle monster with her Frost Dagger, hoping it would run away!
But the result was…
…
“Hero Your Highness’s ankle was grabbed?”
“Should we… go and help?”
…
(Ugh?)
Feeling that slippery sensation, Lonis even wanted to die.
As expected, this kind of thing was her nemesis? No matter how powerful her abilities were, she couldn’t hold on for too long in front of a tentacle monster.
Those disgusting tentacles not only wound their way up her ankle, but they were also wriggling, trying to drag her back into the lair.
This time, Lonis was so scared she could barely control herself. She waved her arms, trying to cut off those disgusting things.
But in the next second, even her wrist was entangled by the tentacles!
…
“!”
“Princess Lonis?”
“Ugh!”
…
Our pitiful Lonis didn’t even have a chance to resist, and was thus “captured” by the tentacle monster and dragged into the darkness.
…
…
(This is completely embarrassing, so embarrassing!!!!)
Feeling her whole body entangled, Lonis was so ashamed she wanted to die.
What is this? Why does every time she tries to look cool, it never lasts more than 5 minutes!
And everyone saw it, which not only meant her reputation was ruined, but she would also be helpless and have to faint from being bullied by the tentacles?
If everyone caught up later and saw a bruised, disheveled, and panting self, her lifelong reputation would be completely ruined!
(Wuwu, damn tentacle monster. It’s even worse than Elus at bullying people!)
But struggling was useless, the tentacle monster’s speed was astonishing, and her companions didn’t have time to help… Soon, Lonis was brought into the tentacle monster’s lair.
It was a room as large as a basketball court, with rocky walls on all sides that looked as if they had been eroded, pockmarked and revealing many grooves.
Many tentacles were attached to the rock walls, “swaggering” and waving their tentacles.
Seeing this scene, Lonis was already so scared she was about to pee herself.
There were at least a hundred of these tentacle monsters! If they all attacked together, then no matter how many weaknesses she had, they wouldn’t be enough for them to attack?
Perhaps they wouldn’t even leave her a gap to breathe.
She would go completely mad in a desperate hell, one after another.
Lonis was almost ready to kneel down and beg for mercy, and just then, a tentacle monster that looked somewhat stout crawled out from the interior.
It looked like the leader of these tentacle monsters, not only did the other tentacle monsters make way for it, but its tentacles were as thick as a normal person’s shin.
This terrifying size was no longer something humans could contend with. Let alone fighting for a few minutes, it would be completely destroyed in just a few seconds, becoming a pile of rotten flesh?
(No, don’t! I don’t want this!!!!)
…
Lonis retreated in horror, cold sweat on her back soaking her clothes.
But she didn’t expect…
Just as she was about to faint from fear, a voice suddenly came:
…
“Respected Hero Your Highness, please… save our village.”
“Haah?”
…
At first, Lonis thought she was hallucinating.
It was because she was so terrified that she recalled her past as a hero.
However…
This voice definitely existed, and it came from the giant tentacle monster: “Since several weeks ago, there have been unusual movements from the ancient tomb, and the dark power that emerged from it has affected many of our companions, causing them to lose their sanity.”
“You… are you talking to me?”
“Of course, Your Excellency is not only a legendary hero but also a good friend of us tentacle monsters, right? I can feel a very friendly feeling from you.”
“Wuah?!”
…
Although the tentacle monster “village chief’s” words sounded friendly, Lonis felt strange no matter how she listened.
What did they mean by good friend of tentacle monsters? She wasn’t a magical girl!
But no matter what, being able to avoid being bullied made Lonis feel relieved and regain some courage:
“You said… the tomb, what person is buried here?”
“Yes, according to our records. It is the residence of a prince named Semantis and his princess younger sister Isabel from a thousand years ago.”
“Oh… (Never heard of it.)”
“Since recently, an ominous aura has been emanating from the tomb. Our tentacle investigators who were sent to investigate have been affected. There’s nothing we can do, so we had to abandon the settlements nearby and retreat to this last residence.”
Do tentacles even have settlements?
However, Lonis instinctively felt that the tentacle monster village chief was not lying to her.
“Then… what do you want me to do?”
“Whatever method it takes, we only hope that Hero Your Highness can resolve this situation.”
“I understand.”
Lonis nodded, in fact, she came for this very reason. So whether she accepted the tentacle monster’s commission or not, the purpose was roughly the same.
But she didn’t expect…
After seeing her nod, the tentacle monsters actually returned to the rock wall and picked out a lamp from it.
“Hero Your Highness, if you enter the tomb, you will definitely be attacked by the Dark Light Paradoxers. And this hanging lamp can help you avoid the danger of being attacked by the Dark Light Guardians.”
“Eh?”
“This lamp operates in the opposite way of ordinary lamps. When it is lit, it emits black light, and wherever it shines, shadows will be cast. And the weaknesses of the Dark Light Guardians will thus be exposed.”
“So that’s how it is… Thank you.”
Lonis took the hanging lamp, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt it was not an ordinary item. The surface was spotless and it exuded a strange bioluminescence.
The stout tentacle monster also shook its head and said politely:
“Hero Your Highness, you don’t have to thank us. It’s because you are saving our home, and we are relatively poor, so we don’t know what we can offer you as a reward after this is done.”
“Eh?”
“However, although we tentacle monsters don’t have much wealth, everyone has plenty of strength and enthusiasm. If you want a full-body massage from us, I can get everyone to guarantee your satisfaction.”
“Please don’t do that!!!!! ”
Lonis’s cheeks turned red as she quickly shook her head.
