Omega Summoner

Chapter 1778: Avoiding Tentacles

”This dang seafood is not letting me go peacefully.” Adrian stated as he dodged left and right as soon as the tentacles sprout out of the water like a cannon.

Adrian is able to do this easier because he has Paradox to tell him when and where to evade if he loses focus. He is making sure that his flight path is the shortest as he could feel that it was not only the sea monsters starting to get allured by the scent of the Kaleidoscope Magna Mystica but also the flying monsters flocking.

The flying monsters are starting flock as the sea monsters are their meals.

Just as Adrian thought that he would be safe, a huge flying monster suddenly swooped down and tried to use its talons to grab him. Adrian was alarmed by Paradox, but the speed of the flying monster was too fast for him to just normally dodge. Adrian needed time and time is what he can manipulate as his surroundings started to stop.

”Time Stop!” Adrian immediately stated as he did not waste a moment.

The surroundings were frozen in place and Adrian finally saw the monster that swooped down to catch him. The flying monster looked like a giant pelican that has red feathers that look like flames. Adrian did not waste time to inspect the monster because he is utilizing all ten seconds that he can stop time for.

Adrian poured a vast amount of mana into his wings and flew like a jet towards Dragon Rock. After the ten seconds were up, the flying pelican monster and the Shell Kraken collided with one another as they were in each otherʼs way. The flying pelican monster did not or rather was not able to fly up immediately because Adrian used Chrono Shift on it to make its body accelerate.

The talons of the flying pelican monster struck the Shell Kraken instead of the intended target which was Adrian. The Shell Kraken also did not expect the attack from the flying pelican monster as it was too focused on catching Adrian as well. The two monsters collided which became a brawl for the two which gave Adrian enough time to zoom away from there.

”Can you tell me what the two are currently doing?” Adrian asked Paradox as it has full view of what is happening.

”The Red Plumed Pelican is currently battling the Shell Kraken. It seems that their collision has agitated each other that they now want to kill each other. We now have ample time to escape, master.” Paradox stated.

”Good! Now I can just hurry on over there and everything will be alright.” Adrian stated as he zoomed by using Chrono Shift on himself regularly.

Adrian thought that all his troubles were over when the Red Plumed Pelican and the Shell Kraken are now fighting each other but it increased instead. Numerous smaller Flying Krakens started shooting out of the water and headed towards Adrian. It seems that the Shell Kraken commanded those under it to get the thing it wants since it is incredibly occupied by the Red Plumed Pelican.

”Annoying squids! Dodu, it is an all you can eat seafood buffet!” Adrian stated as he did not stop himself from summoning a soulbound.

Dodu appeared and immediately used its full size as it created tentacles to start its all you can eat seafood buffet. The sudden appearance of Dodu did not stop the Flying Krakens from attempting to get Adrian but it the numbers that attacked him became lesser. Dodu would just need to grip a Flying Kraken and it would automatically turn to acid upon dissolving in its body.

The sea monsters that had some intelligence immediately hid into the depths of the ocean as soon as they felt the presence of a monster like Dodu. The only ones that are still trying to get a taste of the mythical tier herb are the mindless ones. Dodu could be seen happily eating all the flying krakens while defending Adrian from them.

Adrian is actually impressed that Dodu seems to be much faster in water than on land as it could be seen gliding on the ocean. When Adrian asked Paradox how Dodu was keeping up with him, Paradox answered that Dodu used the ocean water as propulsion. Dodu as intaking and then expelling ocean water from his body at the same time which is akin to a speed boat.

”Proceed to kill those that comes to close to me that Dodu cannot block. I will fly straight to the island since I am now free from danger.” Adrian stated as Paradox started expending mana using spells to kill any flying kraken that bursts out from the water that is in Adrianʼs way.

Adrian was able to smoothly fly the distance of twenty kilometers without any noteworthy hindrances but that did not last long. The Shell Kraken finally caught up to him as it was able to deal with the Red Plume Pelican. The drowned corpse of the Red Plume Pelican could be seen floating on the previous area before.

The Red Plume Pelican was only a Legendary Tier monster that has just evolved which means it is not yet used to its current strength unlike the Shell Kraken that just evolved from a Legendary tier monster. The difference between them was apparent but Adrian did not think that it was that far apart as the Red Plume Pelican was ripped apart.

Still, the Red Plume Pelican did some damage on the Shell Kraken as parts of its soft flesh could be seen spilling out of its shell. It seems that the Red Plume Pelican managed to pierce through the hard exoskeleton of the Shell Kraken while it was struggling to survive. Adrian smiled as this made it easier to subdue the beast before him compared to before.

”Dodu, wrestle that thing and declare supremacy!” Adrian commanded to which Dodu agreed as it was not satiated from the monsters that it has eaten earlier.

The Shell Kraken released all of its tentacles towards Adrian, but Dodu created the same number and even more to counter the attack. A tug of war between a squid and a slime is now happening in the vast ocean. One would think that the Shell Kraken was the superior one, but they should not forget the special properties that Dodu has.

The shell that was covering even parts of the tentacles of the Shell Kraken started to fizzle as Doduʼs ability to destroy defenses was greater than the defense of its shell. The Shell Kraken tried to escape but it was now Dodu that clung to it and made sure that it will not go into the depths of the ocean.

The Shell Kraken knew that it would not be able to escape easily which is why it proceeded to do its last measures.

The Shell Kraken started to detach its tentacles from its own body in order to escape. Seeing that Dodu would not be able to subdue the monster alone, Adrian decided to meddle as well. Adrian called Charon out and also made the gravity affecting the Shell Kraken be condensed in the area it was in.

”You will die for meddling with me when I am in an important mission.” Adrian stated as he created a condensed sphere of gravity with the Shell Kraken as the center.

Charon then created numerous chains that buried onto the soft exposed flesh of the Shell Kraken. The Shell Kraken started squirming uncontrollably upon being attacked on its soft flesh. This was not the end as Dodu suddenly condensed its shape and plunged itself inside the cracked shell in order to destroy the Shell Kraken from the inside.

The Shell Kraken started foaming up as its own brain and heart started to get dissolved by Dodu. In the end, the Shell Kraken succumbed as it cannot stay alive when all parts of its inner body got eaten by Dodu.

[Your soulbound, Dodu, has killed the Shell Kraken.]

As soon as the Shell Kraken became an empty husk, Dodu came out of the cracked shell and presented Adrian with a rainbow-colored stone. He immediately stored the Extreme Magic Stone inside his inventory so that the mythical herb will not have any idea and devour it again. He needs to have some spare just in case the Kaleidoscope Magna Mystica does not work.

”Thanks for your help.” Adrian stated as he returned both his soulbounds to the soul chamber.

Adrian could then see that the other three were flying towards him as they managed to subdue the beast tide enough. It seems that they killed the monsters with the highest intelligence and raw power that almost all of them ran away. Some monsters were still chasing them, but they are the ones that have extremely low intelligence.

”Hurry! Our flying time is almost running out!” Apolaki stated as he ran towards Dragon Rock like his life depended on it.
