18: Chapter 18 A Bad Premonition

Sizzle, sizzle.

Roar!

The strong acid corroded more than half of the tentacles on the back of the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's neck. In pain, the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus let out a shrill howl.

Its body became unstable, and after wobbling in the air for a few moments, it fell straight down from mid-air.

Thud.

After a loud bang, a large crater appeared on the Ground.

Lying in the crater was that very Tentacled Tyrannosaurus.

"Is that all?"

Lin Sheng clicked his tongue.

He had originally thought this creature that looked so much like a Tyrannosaurus would be very strong, but now it seemed the thing was completely incompetent without even realizing it.

Despite only being able to float, it actually dared to engage in aerial combat with a winged creature like himself.

Lin Sheng circled above the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus, occasionally spitting strong acid or flames at it.

While these attacks weren't extremely lethal, they were highly insulting.

Indeed, the pushed-to-the-limit Tentacled Tyrannosaurus roared at the sky repeatedly, but it had no effect on Lin Sheng at all.

Roar!

Gag, gag, gag.

Just then, the extremely enraged Tentacled Tyrannosaurus suddenly lowered its head and gagged for no apparent reason.

Lin Sheng thought it had ruined its throat from roaring.

But when the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus raised its head again, the scene that met his eyes made Lin Sheng feel a chill in his heart.

The inside of the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's mouth no longer looked like a normal mouth.

Countless chaotic, tentacle-like things spread out from deep within its oral cavity, intertwining and twisting as if they were uncontrolled living organisms.

At the same time, Lin Sheng noticed that the thickest tentacles on the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's back had also begun to spread and dance erratically.

Roar-gag!

An ambiguous, chaotic roar issued from the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's mouth, and Lin Sheng knew it was time to flee.

However, by the time Lin Sheng thought of escaping, it was likely already too late.

The tentacles on the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's back swung frantically, acting like propellers to drag its body toward Lin Sheng at an incredible speed.

"Dammit, what on earth are these things?"

Watching the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus transform into a helicopter and fly toward him, Lin Sheng cursed inwardly.

The Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's speed this time exceeded Lin Sheng's imagination, so much so that before he could fly very far, his body was ensnared by several tentacles from its back.

Roar!

With a roar, the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus opened its chaotic maw and lunged to bite Lin Sheng's neck.

Seeing the massive mouth approaching, Lin Sheng could even clearly see the knotted tentacles inside and several organs of unknown purpose.

At that moment, Lin Sheng also opened his mouth wide, thrusting it toward the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's mouth.

Lin Sheng wasn't trying to kiss the tentacles; what he wanted to do was...

Whoosh—

A massive fire dragon erupted from Lin Sheng's mouth. Carrying strong acid, the fire dragon surged into the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's mouth, causing its head movements to jam.

Then...

Roar!

A shrill scream of agony erupted from the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's mouth.

The flames inside its mouth, which had been about to go out, flared up violently again upon contact with the air.

Roar, roar, roar!

The more the fire burned, the more the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus howled.

The more it howled, the more vigorously the fire burned.

Lin Sheng seized the opportunity and bit down on one of the tentacles binding his body.

Crunch.

This bite created a gap in the tentacle, but it didn't snap it off completely.

Seeing this, Lin Sheng took another bite.

This time, the tentacle was gnawed off by Lin Sheng.

Roar!

The Tentacled Tyrannosaurus felt the pain again, and the tentacles all over its body suddenly grew a large section longer.

Some of those tiny tentacles actually managed to pierce through the gaps between Lin Sheng's scales and into his body.

"What the hell is this?!"

Feeling as though something had entered his body, alarm bells rang in Lin Sheng's mind.

But the current situation didn't give him much time to think.

Because the fire in the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's mouth had gone out, and its attack was once again lunging at Lin Sheng.

Facing this attack fueled by boundless fury, Lin Sheng didn't dare be careless.

He didn't want to abandon his body and become a mere wisp of immortal consciousness.

Lin Sheng opened his mouth wide, intending to repeat the old trick.

Whoosh—

"Truly a brainless creature."

The Tentacled Tyrannosaurus falling for it again allowed Lin Sheng's tense nerves to relax considerably.

When facing a brainless creature, as long as the power gap isn't too overwhelming, there is always hope for victory.

While the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus was howling, Lin Sheng used his hands, feet, and mouth. Except for the two tentacles used for flying, all the other tentacles on the Tyrannosaurus's back had been broken.

Roar, roar, roar!

The Tentacled Tyrannosaurus in the air continued to roar incessantly, completely blinded by pain and rage.

If Lin Sheng didn't die, it would never stop.

Even if Lin Sheng died, it likely wouldn't recover.

After flying back to put some distance between them, Lin Sheng communicated with the system while opening his mouth:

"System, keep the strong acid replenished for me."

Whoosh, whoosh.

A continuous stream of fire dragons erupted from Lin Sheng's mouth, and the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's entire body began to burn.

The strong acid clung to the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's body; no matter how much it thrashed, it couldn't extinguish the flames.

Under the roasting fire, the tentacles on the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's body were burned almost to nothing.

It plummeted from the air and landed on the Ground, collapsing weakly on its side.

The two tentacles behind it were still twitching slightly, as if expressing its unwillingness to give in.

Lin Sheng landed on the Ground and slowly approached the seemingly dying creature.

Then, when he was about a hundred meters away from the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus, he stopped.

Whoosh, whoosh.

Lin Sheng still wasn't quite at ease, so he spat another fire dragon from his mouth.

This fire dragon lasted for about five minutes before Lin Sheng stopped the output.

Only then did he feel safe enough to approach the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus, which had become charred charcoal.

Even if this thing wasn't dead, it had most likely lost all combat capability.

Lin Sheng patted the charred head of the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus, and the latter showed no reaction.

"Looks like it's dead for good."

Afterward, Lin Sheng scanned the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's body and was suddenly startled.

He discovered that on one part of the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus's body, the tentacles were significantly shorter than in other places.

And that spot was exactly where he had been when he was caught by the Tentacled Tyrannosaurus just now.
