Chapter 245 245 Transfer Qi
With a swinging arc, it landed squarely on the closest tentacle, doubled back in a quick retreat- and lunged right again at the same spot- hacking and hacking- sending out clanging echoes, desperately cutting. . .slashing, and slashing in violent waves, lighting up the heavens with bright orange sparks!
"STACY!!" he yelled above the balde's frenzied attacks; "YOU CAN DO THIS!! FIGHT THIS SON OF A BI*CH!!"
He swerved his arms- flapping his sleeves against the sweeping breeze;
"I'll distract him! Keep struggling!! Keep fighting!!!"
Stacy- too weak to scream, and too exhausted from running- could do nothing but squirm weakly. Her dropping eyelids suggested she might pass out anytime soon. Nexus' gaze darted southwards- beneath her smooth-cleanly-shaved pubis.
Between her knees- with the plucky tip angled upwards, the gray tentacle was perfectly poised for penetration. Slowly, with the wind howling in the distance, and with the black clouds swooning above its head, it began to lift it upwards- edging dangerously close to her organ- ready to split her in two with its massive girth.
Nexus' feet sank into the earth.
Snarling, his lips curved- ready to fuck up the octopus' sick fantasies.
[STAND BY FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.]
His morale came crashing down.
[BE ADVISED,]
[IN ORDER TO AFFLICT MAXIMUM DAMAGE,]
[AN ADJUSTMENT TO YOUR TECHNIQUE IS REQUIRED.]
you think!!!
[KINDLY ADHERE TO THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS,]
[AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CUT OFF THE TENTACLES SUCCESSFULLY.]
[HOLD STILL YOUR FLYING SWORD IN THE AIR.]
Nexus immediately called it forth.
[TAP INTO YOUR INTERNAL QI.]
He heaved a sigh- and slowly let the air out.
[SLOWLY, BEGIN TO INFUSE YOU QI INTO THE BLADE.]
"I've been doing that!!"
[DO IT SIMULTANEOUSLY.]
The system ordered.
[MAINTAIN A SIMULTANEOUS CONNECTION WITH THE BLADE.]
[THE CREATURE'S STRENGTH AND DEFENSE IS ITS QI.]
[TO DEFEAT IT, YOU MUST–]
"Yeah yeah, I know-" he cut in; "I gotta stay in constant connection with the sword. . ."
[AFFIRMATIVE.]
[SYSTEM OUT.]
Nexus wasted not a single second.
Instantly- the last, and final flying sword came out of the system. This time, it appeared in front of him- large as a wind surfer's board, and thick as the span of his feet.
With the sword hovering a foot above the ground- right in front of him, Nexus quickly stole a glance at the situation above. The octopus had gone deathly silently- with just the sound of a faint wheezing coming from its head. Below the York girl's body, the humongous tentacle was just at the door to her pussy.
Nexus' blood roared in his head.
'That thing's as thick as both my fists! It's going to split her open. . .!!'
Left eye twitching wildly, and seething with rage, Nexus thrust out his left foot first- stepping onto the hovering blade before him!
'You damn system. . .this' my last flying sword. . .you'd better pray this works. . .'
Shaking slightly, he spread out his arms spread out behind him for balance- and heaved himself forward- landing his second foot on the blade. Immediately, Nexus' mental connection with the blade synchronized!
The wind gathered under the blade- and it surged upwards- slowly ascending, inch by inch, it lifted up- above the ground- upwards, till he was effortlessly gliding. The flaps of his coat fluttered behind him- as did his hair, and sleeves.
His knees- slightly bent in a low crouch- began to straighten up.
Four feet,
Five feet,
Seven feet,
Nexus climbed higher and higher- roaring upwards at a comfortable speed. Each passing second made him more and more comfortable. So, he slipped one hand into his left pocket- placing the right hand on his thigh- redirecting his gaze to the looming monster ahead.
Less than seventy feet away, with the ground below rushing by in a sea of silvery blackness, Nexus slowly exhaled- leaning into the flow.
With a twist of his hand- he called the second flying sword. Like Thor's hammer, it came whistling through the open void, and landed straight into Nexus' hands. The weapon was so massive, he had to hold it with two hands.
'That's right. . .time to go beast mode. . .'
A couple moments later, the massive black eyeballs of the creature bulged open in shock- as Nexus- hands in pocket, came gliding thirty feet high in the air- towards Stacy- and the tentacles. His lungs tightened- feeling the air grow lighter and lighter with each new level of altitude he attained.
Snapping in irritation, the octopus rolled its closest arm- and hurled it straight at Nexus- eager to swat him away like a useless housefly. The force of the incoming tentacle surged straight at Nexus. And he tensed- lifting up the massive sword over his head- feeling his brain burst into raging fire.
At the dying moment, Nexus poured a tremendous amount of raw dense Qi into his attack. The fat blade vibrated, whirring with the intensity of an industrial machine as he channeled his essence into it.
In a blur, Nexus' flying form wheezed past- slicing through the wiggling arm- and sending it hurtling straight down. From the folds on the octopus' face, a dreadful scream came thundering through;
AWRGHHHHHHHH!!!
The flash in Nexus' eyes melded together with the glinting of his sword.
'That's right you creepy motherfu**ker. . .that's just the beginning. . .!!'
From the nasty gash, dark red blood gushed out- spluttering- shooting out the liquid onto the ground below. A terrifying roar continued to explode as the creature roared in pain. Fro a painful couple of moments, it stomped wildly- thrashing the top of the hill- breaking off human sized bits of rocks.
"Stacy stay with me. . .!" Nexus shouted- "I'm almost there!!"
Swoosh!!
Behind him, a swishing wind picked up- rushing towards him with an unnatural speed. Nexus did not need to look back. Holding up his sword, in the glistening blade, the reflection of two tentacles appeared.
Instead of turning, he simply took a dip- and his surfing sword dropped down by six feet. Above, the rushing tentacles raged over his head in the blackness- hurtling past in wheezing noises. Nexus immediately raised the massive sword- and lunged.
thwack!!
The blade struck against the left tentacle.
-slicceeee!!!n--Ovelb1n
It tore straight into the flesh- and wickedly ripped through. In a clean sweep, Nexus' slash broke into its hardened skin and parted through the thick taut muscles- neatly severing it- cutting the tentacle into two. Hot searing pain lit up the creature's bulging eyes.
While it prepared to roar in agony, Nexus' blade caught the second one. Clenched fingers tightly at the hilt, he pulled up his sword again, and struck it so hard, the creature trembled in agony.
With a powerful slash, he separated the worm-like arm- cutting it into a clean half. The outflow of his qi made his blade to glow red hot- as it continued to vibrate aggressively- whirring in his hands.
Nexus curled his lower lip- lifting his gaze towards Stacy.
Just a couple more seconds. . . he prayed.
Silently, he lurched forward- cruising at a low altitude- eyes up ahead- focusing on the prize.
The closer he got, the harder the veins throbbed against the sides of his temple. He opened his mouth to shout for Stacy, but what came out unconsciously was a;
graaahhhh!
