The 'Spectre' that the beast-eared girl mentioned was indeed terrifyingly huge. Even before they reached the beach, they could already see it from the treetops.
To put it simply, the appearance of the 'Hairy' this time was a gigantic octopus monster with countless legs. If it was placed in some meaty anime, it would undoubtedly be the type that would provide the audience with an entire episode's worth of entertainment. But in reality, this monster that was as tall as a ten-storey building only gave off a feeling of terror.
At first, Xu Shenxing was puzzled as to why the 'Spectre' that was afraid of sunlight would appear in a place where the sky was not completely dark yet. But when he saw its true form, he vaguely understood the reason.
Originally, when the gigantic 'Spectre' was exposed to sunlight, its melting speed would slow down. But now, the 'Spectre' was wrapped in a thick layer of seawater, and through the refraction and reflection of the seawater, it further weakened the damage of sunlight to the 'Spectre'. Therefore, even though the sky was not completely dark yet, the 'Spectre' was already in a state where it could move around.
"I see …"
Since the 'Spectre' was not a cluster of light but some kind of energy field, the cluster of light was just a reflection of the energy field. In Xu Shenxing's previous investigation, the fist-sized cluster of light energy field was the size of a basketball, but the overflowing energy field of the gigantic 'Spectre' was actually smaller. For example, the sandworm-like 'Spectre' from before had an energy field that was only a centimeter larger than its body, tightly wrapping around it like a layer of invisible skin.
It was not difficult to conclude that a gigantic 'Spectre' was made up of many smaller 'Spectre', and the more of them there were, the stronger and denser the energy field would be.
And now, the density of this' Spectre's' energy field was even higher. Based on the projection model of the sandworm-like 'Spectre' from before, the size of its cluster of light should be even larger.
But this time, the 'Spectre' had given up on its gigantic size and instead increased the density of its energy field. Then, it bound the seawater into the energy field, forming a layer of defense that looked like a carapace.
It was obvious that the 'Spectre' should have some kind of evolutionary mechanism.
If one day, the 'Spectre' could no longer form a carapace with seawater but a real stratum corneum or rock layer, then obviously, with its core wrapped in a thick carapace, it would no longer be afraid of sunlight and would become a dangerous existence that could even move in the day!
"Lü Ni!" King Kong was not afraid of the Spirit at all. He rushed out of the bushes and came to the beach, shouting, "Where are you?"
However, there was no response.
There was no one on the beach except for a tentacle that was slowly sinking into the sea.
Unlike a real octopus, the tentacles of the Hairy did not have suction cups. At the tip of the tentacles was the head of a western dragon-like monster. Behind the monster's head, starting from the neck, were densely packed small tentacles as long as an adult's arm.
Even though Xu Shenxing didn't have trypophobia, he still frowned uncomfortably when he saw the tentacle.
There was no doubt that they were too late — Hulu might have already been eaten.
"Lü Ni!"
King Kong dashed towards the tentacle that had yet to leave the shore like a madman.
However, before she could touch the tentacle, a huge mouth opened at the front of the tentacle. It was a four-petaled mouth, revealing jagged fangs and a bottomless throat.
Then, the tentacle bit towards King Kong like a hunting python!
"Woof!"
The dog-eared little girl pounced on King Kong and pushed him to the ground, barely allowing him to avoid being eaten by the Hairy's tentacle.
The small tentacles on the tentacle took this opportunity to break through the water and wrap around the two of them.
However, Xu Shenxing had also arrived at this time. He got up and kicked the big tentacle away. It fell into the sea with a splash.
However, it was only one tentacle after all.
The other two tentacles entangled with each other and merged into a thicker tentacle, smashing towards Xu Shenxing's head!
Xu Shenxing also propped up Cloud Scale, took three steps forward, and met the tentacle head-on.
If a small stone flew towards you at a moderate speed and you threw it at the stone, what would the result be?
Of course, as a 'small stone' that was much harder than a 'hand', Xu Shenxing was sent flying.
Although this kind of attack basically didn't do much damage to him, the feeling of not being able to use his strength was terrible.
Perhaps if he stood on the ground and used Cloud Scale to meet the opponent's attack, the damage would be higher. Previously, he used a similar method to blow up the monster's arm under the building.
However, considering the softness of the beach, if he took the attack head-on, Xu Shenxing might be buried in the sand …
"The situation now is really troublesome."
Xu Shenxing, who adjusted his posture in the air and finally managed to land steadily, muttered unhappily.
At this time, he suddenly found a wooden stick by his feet — it might be debris that was washed up on the beach because of the tide.
