Hundreds of tentacles surged toward [Autumn] at the same time.
[Autumn] desperately swung her scythe and summoned black insects to defend herself.
However, his body was still entangled by several tentacles that had broken through his defenses.
Taking this opportunity, Hela instantly transformed into flesh and blood, disappearing into the tentacles that pierced the ground beneath her feet.
A surge of energy flowed into the tentacles that bound [Autumn].
The tentacles, which had been almost completely corroded by the black insects, suddenly swelled up.
A powerful force tightly bound [Autumn].
[Autumn] let out a painful groan, his scythe slashing incessantly at the tentacles that were binding him.
Meanwhile, the other tentacles seized the opportunity to swarm towards him.
[Autumn] was quickly covered in tentacles and lost the ability to move.
The relentless encroachment of the black worms caused these tentacles to age and decay rapidly, and they would soon be completely destroyed.
But even this short while is enough.
"Roar--!"
Following the thickest tentacle, Xiao San roared and charged wildly toward [Autumn].
His fierce eyes gleamed with a red light.
[Autumn] The hand holding the sickle tightened involuntarily, and drops of black water seeped from the rusty sickle.
A large number of black insects burst forth from its body and swarmed around it.
The scythe pierced the thick tentacle, and the tentacle, which was already half-corrupted, rotted and broke off instantly.
The remaining tentacles that had bound him were also corroded by the black insects.
[Autumn] stepped on the black insect and flew backward suddenly.
Having lost her footing, the Xiao San stumbled and fell heavily to the ground.
The ground trembled slightly, and Xiao San got up and stared intently at [Autumn] in the sky.
The remaining corroded tentacles gathered together and became Hela.
But now Hela's strength is only at the peak of the ' Transcendent ' level.
[Autumn] is now seriously injured, while Hela's side only has a Xiao San at the ' Ten Thousand Stars ' level left.
Hela extended a tentacle and retrieved the feather that had fallen to the side.
He plunged a weapon into the Xiao San's leg, then transformed into a mass of flesh and blood, merging into Xiao San body and bringing her power to its peak.
[Autumn], flying in the air, clutched her wounded abdomen and gasped for breath.
He hesitated to make a move against Hela, whose strength was only at the peak of the ' Ten Thousand Stars ' level.
If it were someone else, even in my current state, I could easily defeat an ordinary ' Starlight ' human.
But he was facing Hela, who was also one of the [Five Calamities].
Given that the opponent's abilities were very restraining, [Autumn] dared not act rashly.
Hela lay on the ground, quietly watching the other party, without making any rash moves.
Hela wasn't entirely confident she could defeat [Autumn].
Ultimately, it was the suppression of their respective realms that made Hela wary of him.
The two remained locked in this stalemate for a while.
[Autumn] suddenly glanced at her hand.
Hands covered in needlework are like a piece of clothing that is reluctant to be thrown away, being mended and patched up, and then continued to be worn and used.
He clenched his fists, and his lifeless eyes suddenly hardened, as if he had made a firm decision.
"Today... I must have you..."
He hurled the scythe, dragging its long iron chain, at Hela.
Hela stepped aside, easily dodging the scythe, while simultaneously activating the feathers within her body.
A series of whirlwind-like steps appeared before Hela.
Hela's massive body stepped onto the steps and ran towards [Autumn] as the steps stretched out.
[Autumn] She withdrew her sickle, and tens of thousands of black insects swarmed toward Hela.
Hela didn't dodge; instead, she accelerated and charged towards the black worm and [Autumn] hiding behind it.
[Autumn] spat, stepped on the black insect, and prepared to fly backward to increase the distance between herself and Hela.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
But he hadn't gone far when three red laser beams appeared behind him, flashing as they went.
[Autumn] immediately sensed something was wrong and abruptly stopped her backward movement.
Three dense streaks of stars flashed past [Autumn] from behind, precisely where the laser had just passed.
And these stars are actually made up of pixels.
[Autumn] narrowed her eyes and looked in the direction from which the stars were coming.
On the ruins not far away, a young man wearing a red scarf and panting heavily stood holding a pixelated gun.
His body is semi-transparent, with a red pixelated heart in front of him.
Before [Autumn] could react, Hela had already seized the opportunity to get in front of him.
A gaping maw full of fangs blocked [Autumn]'s view, [Autumn] quickly stepped on the black insects to dodge.
The sound of Hela's gaping maw snapping shut exploded in [Autumn] ears.
Immediately afterwards, a piercing pain shot through my left hand.
[Autumn]'s left hand was bitten off by Hela.
[Autumn] frowned slightly and distanced herself from Hela.
Crimson blood seeped from the severed arm, and Hela swallowed the severed arm in one gulp.
Instantly, an unparalleled power surged into Hela's body.
He was originally stuck at the peak of the ' Ten Thousand Stars ' realm, but suddenly broke through.
We've arrived at ' Starlight '.
She turned her head and saw a young man carrying a pixelated spray paint backpack flying towards her.
Aidan lowered her head slightly, somewhat embarrassed, and flew to Hela's side.
Her face flushed slightly, she trembled as she spoke, "I'm... I'm sorry, boss, I'm only just getting here..."
Hela stared at him, and surprisingly, she could sense the aura of the ' Starlight ' realm emanating from Aidan.
Aidan glanced up at Hela and quickly began to explain.
"At that time, I was somewhat dragged into a certain field because of my own limitations."
Then something happened, and I broke through...
Aidan took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and looked at Hela.
"Boss, don't worry! I would never betray you!"
I will help you!
After saying that, he looked ahead and saw [Autumn] flying in the air as well.
Several Gaster Blaster hovered around Aidan.
[Autumn] suddenly raised his hand, and a swarm of black insects, covering the sky, rushed towards the two of them.
Hela ignored the black insects swarming towards her and ran towards [Autumn] using the whirlwind steps.
Aidan a gentle wave of his hand, the red pixelated heart in front of him turned green.
A green shield appeared in front of the green heart, blocking the black worms.
Hela rushed out of the black worm's range and, without saying a word, swung her claw forward.
But there was nothing in front of him; he swung his sword at empty air.
Hela stood in the void, twisting her body.
Look to the left,
Look to the right.
But they never saw that frail figure.
He got away.
Hela shook her head slightly and gave up on the idea of pursuing him.
She glanced back at Aidan, then stepped back down the stairs to the ground.
Standing atop a pile of ruins, Hela's tyrannical body writhed slightly.
The enormous body was compressed into the shape of a petite and adorable young girl in no time.
Hela reached into her pocket and pulled out a translucent feather.
After checking that there was no damage, it was put back in the pocket.
A little ball of flesh, topped with two gems, mumbled something and stopped at Hela's feet on its four little legs.
Hela bent down and pulled the two gems off it.
One is an amber necklace, and the other is Xing Lan bracelet.
"Boss, um..."
Aidan, who had also flown down, looked around at everything and slowly opened his mouth, but then hesitated to speak.
