Chapter 95: Infinite Tentacle Summons! Explosive Chaos Unleashed

I saw someone mention that.

Immediately, there was a voice of rebuttal.

[What you said, the longer the clearance time, means that after a few minutes of clearing the level, you add a few more seconds, maybe half a minute?]

[Hahaha, I've never been to the Tower of Trials, so I don't know what it means to clear the first floor in just a few minutes, especially when it's over a dozen floors.]

[Damn, I get angry just talking about it. Our guild gathered a team of over 300 people, fought for a whole day, lost a third of the team, and finally cleared the first floor. A few minutes to clear the first floor? That's impossible.]

[Package test player real hammer!]

That person was instantly silenced by the barrage of responses.

Well, there's a price to pay for such comments.

His words were clearly rubbing salt into the wounds of those who had spent a lot of effort and resources to break through the levels.

If Zach could clear the first floor of the Tower of Trials in a few minutes, and he was nearly at his limit, then what was that person? Wouldn't they hate him?

Sorry, they're not that forgiving—they're used to dealing with keyboard warriors like him.

Who knows where he's hiding? If Zach knew, he'd probably force him into the Tower of Trials to perish!

Back to Zach.

At this moment, he had reached the sixteenth floor of the Tower of Trials.

Miria, feeling that she couldn't be of much help and didn't want to slow Zach down, voluntarily entered the system backpack.

She didn't want to be a burden or affect his progress.

Zach had a lot of respect for her understanding.

As she wished, she was stored in the system backpack.

"Hiss..." Zach looked around. The environment here was definitely the most serene he had encountered since entering the Tower of Trials.

No one in sight.

The mountains stretched out ahead, and Zach stood atop a peak, overlooking the beautiful scenery below.

The gray rock faces of the mountains, mixed with the dense green forests, and the clear blue sky with the bright sun above, created a breathtaking sight.

Occasionally, he could hear the call of an eagle.

Looking up, several goshawks were soaring several hundred meters above him.

However, Zach didn't think these birds were the bosses of this floor.

If they were, he could easily crush them with a single hand!

"Strange, where is the gatekeeper boss?"

The mountain wasn't so high that it was obscured by fog. Everything was clearly visible to the naked eye, but there was no sign of the boss.

"Is this a bug?" Zach wondered, smiling lightly.

Suddenly, the earth trembled, and the mountains shook!

Zach braced himself, widening his stance to stabilize his footing.

His sharp gaze then focused on the ground as a mountain rose up, towering higher!

In just moments, it shot up by tens of meters, with large rocks and trees splintering off and falling to the ground.

What revealed itself was a giant creature—a hydra!

Zach initially thought it might be a dragon, but there were no horns, so it had to be some sort of serpent.

It had a black head and a white belly, and its body was covered in moss, likely due to sleeping for an extended period.

Zach counted seven heads on the creature.

Only the tongues and parts of the body were visible, while the rest remained buried in the earth, unseen.

The visible portion alone stretched five or six hundred meters in length.

The goshawks, once distant, now seemed small in comparison, barely reaching half the height of the hydra.

But the hydra didn't seem interested in the goshawks, perhaps because they weren't worth its attention.

One of the heads lowered toward Zach and came closer, very close!

Zach could feel the breath of the creature sweeping across his body, and he could see its red pupils, like mirrors, reflecting his figure.

Without hesitation, the massive mouth of the hydra opened wide toward him, like a cavern ready to swallow him whole.

"Is it trying to eat me along with the mountain?" Zach thought, laughing at himself.

Zach stepped forward.

Boom!

The wind howled as a colossal tentacle rose from the ground, wrapping around the creature's tongue and forcing its mouth shut.

The moment the head was just inches from Zach, the tentacle yanked it backward and flung it to the ground.

Boom! Boom!

The hydra's head crashed into the earth with a tremendous force, shattering trees and causing a massive impact.

"These octopus tentacles are perfect for handling such giant creatures," Zach smiled with satisfaction.

The other six heads bent down and launched a counterattack.

Fortunately, Zach wasn't lacking in tentacles.

After all, this skill was called infinite summoning tentacles.

Six more tentacles appeared from the ground, wrapping tightly around each of the snake heads.

The hydra began twisting its body with immense strength, trying to break free from the tentacles.

It seemed like a battle of equals, with neither side gaining the upper hand.

But Zach had a clear advantage.

"Did you forget the word infinite?" he smirked.

More tentacles emerged from the earth—hundreds of them—wrapping around the hydra's massive body.

With immense force, they began to pull in all directions.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

The sounds of crushing and tearing echoed through the air as the snake's body was squeezed and torn apart.

The sheer force was too much for its skin to withstand, and it ruptured, spilling blood and flesh across the landscape.

In the sky, the hydra's eyes were violently forced from their sockets, rolling away as blood rained down.

Zach knew it was time to finish this fight.

He summoned thousands of octopus tentacles that twisted together, forming a massive Shrouding the Heavens giant tentacle.

The suckers on the tentacles were numerous, much more formidable than the ones used by the ghost warrior earlier.

Luckily, Zach wasn't obsessive about perfection, or he might have driven himself mad trying to make everything flawless.

The giant tentacle snaked around the hydra's body, tightening with overwhelming strength.

In an instant, the earth trembled more than it had when the hydra first appeared.

Cracks began to form in the ground, stretching out in web-like patterns tens of meters wide.

Boom!

With a violent tug, the hydra's massive body was pulled into the ground, leaving only destruction in its wake.

Zach raised his hand and wove a large net out of the air.

Once it was complete, he pushed it forward, cutting the hydra's massive body into uniformly sized chunks.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

The ground shook as the severed pieces of the hydra hit the earth with thunderous impacts, disintegrating into dust.

[Successfully killed the seven-headed rock snake! Congratulations to the host for receiving the customs clearance package +1! Kill point +1900!]

Zach didn't even flinch when he saw the points pop up. To him, the seven-headed rock snake was just a bigger zombie monster, easily dealt with with minimal effort.

[Extracting...]

[Extraction successful! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the petrification skill! Strength attribute +300, defense attribute +200!]

"So... they actually have skills?" Zach chuckled.

In hindsight, it was a bit tragic to think that the snake never even got a chance to use its skill before it was killed.
