Chapter 623 Octopus Transforms into Human Form?!

Zero... Thinking of the cat-clan youth, Yu Zhizhi's lips curled up slightly. Although they had just parted, she still hoped to see him as soon as possible.

And Lord Spider...

Yu Zhizhi felt somewhat melancholy; every time she thought of the spider, her feelings were complicated.

On the one hand, she really wanted to see Louis and Louis, and she also wanted to sit down and have a good talk with Spider.

On the other hand, because of what the Spider Lord did during the last dream and the divorce papers he sent unexpectedly, Yu Zhizhi inevitably harbors some resentment towards him.

Is the spider really going to leave?
Yu Zhizhi still remembers that on the day of the marriage ceremony, Spider-Man was also there...

I'm so happy!

While at the amusement park, Yu Zhizhi learned about the balanced relationship between Spider-Man and Louis and Louis, and she thought that it would continue like this forever.

Tang Luoke noticed the little rabbit's downcast mood and looked down at her: "What are you thinking about?"

Yu Zhizhi pursed her lips. She wanted to say something, but didn't know where to begin, so she could only shake her head: "It's nothing..."

Noticing that Tang Luoke had stopped, Yu Zhizhi, who had taken a few more steps, turned back to look at him.

Her eyes darted away slightly. After thinking for a moment, she walked over and gently took Tang Locke's fingers: "I was thinking about Lord Spider."

They walked at the back of the group, gradually falling further and further behind the main force.

Yu Zhizhi lowered her head, looking at the mud at her feet, and carefully chose her words: "Didn't I go back once? I formed a bond with Yu Ling."

"Hmm." Tang Locke responded casually, "That guy from Paradise isn't happy about it?"

“No, that’s not it.” Yu Zhizhi’s tone was tinged with melancholy that she herself didn’t realize. “I haven’t even seen him. It’s just that I received a divorce letter from him. Lord Spider, you want to end our relationship.”

Don Locke was somewhat surprised.

Of course he remembered that in the Paradise of the Moonrise Empire, in the final arena, he and that guy both wanted nothing less than to kill each other.

Paradise Leader, Resolve the Fate?
If I remember correctly, he has three personalities.

Are you fully recovered?
Yu Zhizhi's rabbit ears drooped as she thought of the Spider Lord she had seen in her dream last time, who was even more unapproachable than when she first met him in the Paradise.

Don Locke scoffed, "So many tricks up your sleeve."

If he remembers correctly, Spider was the first guy to hold a marriage ceremony with Zhizhi.

It seems to be the only one so far.

The fog suddenly rolled in.

One second, Tang Luoke's burning hot palm was still imprinted on her wrist, and the next second, a cold, sticky sensation enveloped all her senses.

Yu Zhizhi abruptly stopped in her tracks, her fingers clenching tightly, grasping only the empty, cold air.

"Tang...?"

There was no response. Only the faint hissing sound of the flowing mist, like countless damp, cold snakes slithering along the ground.

She was truly all alone now.

My heart pounded heavily in my chest, then was gripped tightly by an invisible hand of fear. A dull ache shot through my veins to my fingertips, bringing a numbing chill.

Yu Zhizhi strained to keep her rabbit ears perked up, but all she could catch was her own increasingly rapid breathing, amplified in the deathly silence, making her appear exceptionally lonely.

The fog has no color, yet it seems to have absorbed all colors.

The abandoned park twists and dissolves in the fog, its boundaries disappearing.

She wasn't sure if she was still in the same place, whether her feet were on soft mud or something else.

The dried-up lake, the swing covered with withered grass, the rusty bench... all became hazy, distorted silhouettes in the fog, like lurking giants.

Then she saw it. At first, it was just a discordant dark red in the mist, wriggling slightly against the gray-white background. A very small blob, neither too close nor too far from her.

It's... a baby octopus?!
Yu Zhizhi stared wide-eyed in astonishment.

The little octopus that accompanied them on their mission has appeared here!
Unlike usual, the little octopus in Yu Zhizhi's field of vision had an indescribable strangeness!
It's starting to change!
It's not a mutation, but a slow, sticky growth.

The arms and legs elongate, fork, and probe into the depths of the mist, then curl back, their outlines stretching and adjusting. The dark red hue settles and deepens, revealing a skin-like texture, yet flowing with a flame-like sheen. The torso rises, stretching out the lines of human shoulders and back.

A figure gradually took shape in the mist and faint red light.

The background is burning. Not real flames, but fog twisting, evaporating, and refracting to create a scorching illusion, like an invisible fire surrounding the figure.

The heatwave swept over us, dispelling the chill of the fog, but bringing with it a different kind of suffocation—

That was an oppressive feeling that burned everything and left no room for argument!
Rise from the ashes!

The word, carrying the scorching smell of rust, crashed into Yu Zhizhi's mind!
The human figure stood motionless, as if waiting, or perhaps merely an eternal coordinate within this eerie dream.

But the aura he exuded was a mixture of deep-sea chill and fiery ferocity, contradictory yet unified!

He has been here for a long time.

We've been waiting for this for a long time...

Yu Zhizhi was unable to move.

The nightmare locked her body, while the burning figure locked her gaze.

She could hear her own heartbeat, thump, thump, terrifyingly clear amidst the boundless silence and the crackling of the fake flames.

"Bunny! Bunny!"

A familiar voice came to my ears.

It's a baby octopus!
However, the figure in the fire ahead did not turn around!

Yu Zhizhi felt a sharp pain in her head. She felt a moment of dizziness and then felt something wrap around her waist. With a strong pull, she sank backward!
She woke up immediately.

The red octopus's tentacles wrapped tightly around her waist, calling out to her incessantly. Only when it noticed the girl's empty eyes gradually regaining their light did the octopus breathe a sigh of relief.

"Bunny, you scared me to death..."

Yu Zhizhi collapsed to the ground, still shaken. The image of the young man emerging from the flames echoed in her mind. A hint of confusion flashed in her dark eyes. She looked at the little octopus in front of her, its head tilted back, staring at her anxiously. For a moment, she couldn't tell if what she had seen in the illusion was really...

Is that the little red octopus in front of me?
"I think I see you," Yu Zhizhi murmured.

The little octopus exclaimed, "Me? Am I going to become super big, like a giant ship?!"

It danced wildly, imagining itself as a mountain, blocking out the sky and the sun!

Yu Zhizhi pursed her lips slightly: "I saw you, you—in human form."

The little female's voice was very soft, but the little octopus heard it clearly.

It froze.

The word "human" is very distant to it.

But the little octopus vaguely remembered that it could transform into human form.

Strange, it has never had a human form before, so why does it feel familiar?

Just as it was about to say something, it suddenly widened its eyes and looked ahead—

"Who?!"

The little octopus's originally adorable body immediately swelled to five times its original size!
It stood in front of Yu Zhizhi, staring intently at the figure gradually emerging from the darkness. Upon seeing the newcomer's appearance, it exclaimed in disbelief, "High Priest?!"

 See you tomorrow~
