Chapter 130 - The Mommy Stinging Jellyfish!
Chapter 130 - The Mommy Stinging Jellyfish!
Have you ever seen an angry mother's reaction to her children being mistreated? Have you ever felt the protective rage of a mother for her children? Well, if you haven't before, this mommy Jellyfish was about to unleash it.
TRO! LO! LO! LO!
Compared to the other stinging jellyfishes that towered at sizes of 5 to 7 meters tall, this mommy jellyfish towered at a size of about 15 meters tall.
Yes, she was smaller than both the Sperm Whale and the Giant Squid but the momentum and aggressiveness that she came with made her seem even more deadly than both predators who were still embroiled in their confrontation.
This Giant pink Jellyfish was big, her umbrella-shaped bell pulsated with force and at extremely high frequencies as she moved with a speed like the flash.
Perhaps, because of her rage, her pink glowing form glowed even brighter like the sun in the daytime as it illuminated the surrounding water around her for miles.
Surrounding her was a glowing pink magic field. This magic field looked so ominous that from afar, Sebastian already dreaded what it felt like to be inside it.
Her strong magic presence easily revealed her identity as another purple-tier predator. The magic presence alerted the 2 battling predators, but they were unable to react properly before she arrived due to her astonishing speed.
Sizzle!
Ignoring the fire that was currently raging around the Giant Squid's gigantic body, the mommy jellyfish brute-forced her way in before making contact with the Giant Squid who immediately started convulsing at a mad frequency.
She didn't collide with force to induce loud sounds of impact, but her gentle impact and entrance into the battlefield paired with the emergence of her pink magic field affected all 3 predators on the battlefield.
The Sperm Whale's enormous body twitched slightly while Sebastian convulsed, going full thrashing mode as he lost control of his body.
[Calculating Luck and mind stat points…, calculation complete.]
[You have been affected by the Stinging Pink magic field: You have been sunk into the pink magic cycle and you have been inflicted with the following magic effects.]
[You have been inflicted with the stunned immobilization effect.]
[You have been inflicted with the intense pain effect.]
[You have been inflicted with the mild poisoned effect.]
[You have been inflicted with the sore skin effect.]
[You have been hit by a magic skill: Pink Illusion.]
[You are currently under the influence of an illusion effect: Madness!]
Sebastian read through the series of notifications sent to him by his system as fast as his eyes could go, but after reading the last line, his brain exploded as a nuclear bomb seemed to have been detonated in his head.
Immediately, everything went wrong for him, his vision turned upside down and his perception of his surroundings became warped.
The Sperm Whale that was originally close to him suddenly seemed to have teleported kilometers away, the Giant Squid seemed to have miraculously regrown his giant eyes back.
Octumpedam seemed to have revived and arrived before him, ready to puncture through him with his numerous tentacles and end his life as revenge.
The devouring Cobra that he killed months ago after escaping from the city of eels seemed to have revived, back to squeeze the life out of him.
He felt the world turn upside down to him, his brain turned heavy and disillusioned as pain wreaked his mind. He felt weak, he felt weird, he felt stupid all of a sudden, he felt mad!
Sebastian was not the only one who came under this effect, both the Sperm Whale and the Giant Squid suffered it though theirs was much milder.
Taking advantage of her temporarily incapacitating all 3 predators, the angry mommy jellyfish went to work, using her tentacles to grab the Giant Squid who was the most injured among the 3 predators.
Her tentacles seemed like those of a gym enthusiast as they expanded, revealing what could only be called mad muscles as they wrapped the Giant Squid up, overpowering it in seconds despite its resistance.
Amid squelching sounds, the jellyfish's tentacles wrapped the Giant Squid up, compressing it to a smaller size fit to enter her mouth as she opened her mouth beneath her umbrella-shaped bell to swallow.
Squelch!
Her umbrella-shaped bell pulsated again as she started swallowing.
For Sebastian and the Sperm Whale, unable to extricate themselves from the effects of this jellyfish's magic field, they could only thrash about, helpless.
…
"Attack and give it your all!"
This sentence kept on reverberating in Tosh's head as he looked on at the ongoing battle with undisguised fear masking his sharky features.
Seeing the immobilized Sebastian, his team leader, with no strength to resist but to only wait for death, he felt an urge to escape from the battlefield immediately but he just couldn't bring himself to do it.
Unsure of what to do, he instinctively configured back to what his brain wanted to do at this moment which was blabbering in panic.
"Damn! I didn't plan for this, Seba bro you brought this! I hate hunting teams because of this, how do you expect me to fight such a predator?"
"We're all going to die, we're all going to die!"
"Tosh!"
"We're all going to die!"
"Tosh!!!"
Tosh was startled on hearing his name being yelled. Turning his head, he saw his smaller sibling, Shanks swimming back towards him after his unsuccessful attempt to escape the battlefield.
"Tosh, Seba bro is in danger, we're in danger too. Seba bro needs your help, without you we're really all going to die".
"I'm too weak, I won't make a difference but I believe that your light magic can do something to save us. Try, just try".
"Really? My magic can make a difference?"
"Yes, it can. Just throw those light magic punches, I believe they can do something, just try it".
Tosh fell silent on hearing that. For some weird reason, Shanks' words seemed to have touched a sensitive place in his heart which his brain reacted to in various ingenious ways.
"I can make a difference?" He asked himself. "Does that mean I can do more than just blabbering all day like Tungsten always said, I can make a difference?"
As he reflected on this word, his shark eyes suddenly turned from their normal color to a gleaming white color as they glowed brightly. He no longer said it as a question, he declared it.
"I can make a difference!"
