Chapter 692: Such a Chaotic Scene
More mermaids joined the fray, but the numbers were still in favour of the pouch-like creatures. A fierce battle erupted as if to decide who was the true ruler of this domain.
Gu Fan decided not to intervene, he slid down close to the floor and swam forward while observing the situation, signaling others to follow him.
Lin Xi was the first to reach Gu Fan’s side. Her delicate figure was immediately recognizable to him, but everyone else, dressed similarly and masked, were hard to distinguish.
Seeing Gu Fan and his team attempting to escape, some mermaids, unwilling to let this happen, tried to chase. Unfortunately, swimming too high, they got entangled by tentacles, causing more mermaids to come to their rescue but leaving them unable to pursue Gu Fan and his team.
"Hocus Pocus, brethren, please let us pass." As soon as Gu Fan finished his words, he saw a mermaid charging towards him. Left with no choice, he defended using the ’Upward Kicking’ move. His feet slammed into the mermaid, kicking her up into the embrace of the tentacles.
"My apologies, it’s your aggression that brought this on," Gu Fan said, wanting to move on. But as he had lifted his leg too high while kicking out, a tentacle ensnared it, and he found himself trapped.
First one tentacle, then a second and a third wrapped around Gu Fan, preventing him from breaking free, then Gu Fan felt himself being dragged towards a powerful force.
"Oh my god!" Gu Fan cried, horrified to see a pouch-like creature opening its mouth to welcome him, and he couldn’t escape.
In this life-threatening moment, Gu Fan decided to take a gamble. He took out an electric baton, charged towards the pouch-like creature, and switched it on, electrocuting himself into convulsions.
