1165 The Globefish Stuck in the Hole

Thankfully, some places on both sides of the hole were dry. However, getting too close to the hole could still be dangerous.

"Be careful! Don't fall into the water." Yuan Tianxing said to the others, then hopped onto the edge of the hole. He looked into the hole and saw a great, underground lake. The water in the lake rippled and generated a clattering sound. The surface of the lake wasn't as peaceful as the surface of the underground river.

Yuan Tianxing sensed many dangerous vibes coming from the lake, and even saw some enormous, faint figures moving in the water. The others soon landed by his sides and held their breaths when they saw the lake.

Earlier, they didn't sense any dangerous vibe coming from the hole at all. However, once they came up to the edge of the hole, the strong sense of danger instantly shrouded them.

As they showed up, many dark figures in the lake came toward them.

"This is not good! Move! The things in the water are coming toward us!" Lu Fang knitted his brows and gave a shout once he came up. At the same time, countless tentacles suddenly reached out of the water from right near them and wriggled like snakes, swishing toward Yuan Tianxing and the others.

Yuan Tianxing and his people reacted swiftly, leaping backward and landing back where they came from. However, those tentacles were much faster than they were. Lei Yao, who was slightly slow, ended up being caught.

"Lei Yao!" Seeing that, Li Zheng burst in yells and fleetingly threw a few huge ice blades at the tentacles which had Lei Yao wrapped up.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Li Zheng's ice blades shattered against the tentacles.

Before Lei Yao was dragged into the water, a long spear flashed across the air and sank into the tentacles.

Old Guo raised both his arms to control the spear and raised it. The tentacles twisted and attempted to pull the spear down, to the point where Old Guo's face twisted. The tentacles were so strong that Old Guo felt quite difficult to control the spear in the air.

Lei Yao tried to free himself from whatever was wrapping his body. However, he found his superpower disabled. He couldn't feel the energy inside his nucleus at all. Without feeling his power, he could not put forth his strength.

At that moment, a widely opened mouth with sharp teeth rose from the water and came at him.

All of a sudden, a hundreds of kilograms heavy rock fell from the cave roof and into the giant mouth.

Lei Yao was thrown away, not toward the outside, but to the center of the lake.

At that moment, a vine swung toward him and caught him before he fell into the water, then pulled him back and threw him back up into the air. As he was finally safe, the others landed back on the ground down the waterfall with their hearts thumping.

"Are you hurt?" Li Zheng ran up to Lei Yao and asked with concern.

Lei Yao was still gasping for air. Just now, he thought was really going to die. Hearing Li Zheng's question, he came back to his senses, then automatically dropped his head to check himself. After that, he raised his head and said to the others, "I'm fine."

"I was worried dead! Be careful, bro!" Feng Yuming patted Lei Yao on the shoulder.

"Thank you!" Lei Yao looked at him and thanked. At last, it was Feng Yuming who sent out the vine to save him from falling into the water.

"Alright! As long as you're not hurt." After confirming that Lei Yao was all fine, Yuan Tianxing nodded and turned to look into the hole. The tentacles from the water looked like the tentacles of an octopus, but without suckers. Those tentacles were very long, thick, and smooth. The mouth that came out of the water just now looked like the mouth of a fish. Those sharp teeth looked rather scary.

"What are those? Mutated fishes? What are those tentacles?" Feng Yuming asked the others.

The others glanced at each other, then all turned to look at the hole. "The mouth looked a little like a fish mouth. But, I don't know what those tentacles belong to. Do they belong to the monstrous fish? Or, is it some other creature?" someone said.

"I don't know. But, that thing is huge. And I feel there're more of them in the water," Yuan Tianxing shook his head, then turned to Lu Fang and asked him, "Did you feel anything.

Lu Fang nodded at him, then gave a long roar.

Old Guo translated Lu Fang's words, "He said there are a lot of them in the water. Those tentacles belonged to the fish. You may not be able to see them, but he can sense their shapes. They have spherical bodies, with tentacles all over their bodies. Unlike the normal fishes, they don't have tails."

The others pictured a ball with a fish head and a large fish mouth, along with twisting tentacles all over its body.

"I feel it's like a huge globefish. Globefishes don't have tentacles though. Also, globefishes have tails," Lin Yu pictured an angry globefish in his head, then added twisting tentacles to it. That was indescribably weird.

Lu Fang gave him a glance and thought for a moment, then nodded. The fishes in the lake did look like globefishes, but they were extra large and with countless tentacles.

"They're very aggressive. I guess the hole is too small, so they can't come over here," Yuan Tianxing glanced at the hole, then thought of the giant mouth that he saw.

The fish mouth was at least ten meters long and four meters wide. The oval-shaped hole above the waterfall was long, but only about three meters wide. It was a little too narrow for those creatures in the lake.

The one that attacked Lei Yao just now might not be the largest one, but the smallest one couldn't be much smaller than it.

"Is those fishes' vibe what scared the underground gorillas out of the cave? Will they come out of the water?" Li Zheng turned to look back.

The waterfall was miles away from the gorillas' cave. The distance wasn't short, but wasn't long either.

All of a sudden, a massive wave of long and huge tentacles gushed out of the hole, rushing toward Yuan Tianxing and the others while generating a loud sound of water.

Everyone quickly moved backward. The space was too limited, and the people moved all together, so the place became a little crowded instantly. Thankfully, a few higher-leveled ones leaped straight to the other side of the pond under the waterfall.

Bang! Bang! Bang! As the people dodged, those tentacles pierced into the ground and broke the rock, but missed their targets. In the very next second, those tentacles scattered and reached further out. Yuan Tianxing and the other humans weren't their sole targets; those creatures were aiming at Old Guo and the other zombies too.

A row of giant teeth was seen in the hole upon the waterfall.
