Although in their normal view this is a location that can be reached in an instant.
But now the distance has become an insurmountable barrier.
Getting there quickly is not easy.
Ron said.
"Our opportunities are very limited right now, so we must do everything we can."
After saying that, he calmed himself down and swiftly used his broken sword to repel the tentacles on both sides.
Then, with a powerful push from both feet, he shot forward as fast as an arrow released from a bow.
Taichiro followed closely behind Ron.
However, his stamina was clearly insufficient, and he couldn't maintain this speed for very long.
On the way, his speed gradually decreased.
Ron saw this, he said.
"Don't lose heart. We must muster our courage. We will definitely get there."
After saying that, Ron grabbed Taiichiro.
With his own weight and Taiichiro's weight on his back, Ron was starting to feel exhausted.
This made him several times slower than before.
But the tentacles were moving faster and faster.
Just as the target was right in front of them, several tentacles suddenly shot out from the side at great speed.
In an instant, they entangled Ron.
Ron swiftly extended his tentacles, slashing the broken sword fiercely at one of them.
But the tentacles remained unmoved, as if Ron's broken sword had no effect on them whatsoever.
When the broken blade struck the head of one of the tentacles, a series of sparks erupted.
The touch remained completely unharmed.
Ron was stunned; he was taken aback.
You should know that before, he could cut these tentacles in half with a single strike.
But now it seems his strike is useless.
The tentacle lunged forward again and bit down on Ron's thigh.
Ron felt a sharp pain, and then the blood in his body began to churn and rush into the mouth of the tentacle.
Ron knew that if he didn't deal with this tentacle soon, his blood would be drained clean in no time.
At that moment, several more tentacles rushed over from the side.
Ron gritted his teeth and slashed down hard with the broken sword.
They wanted to sever his tentacles.
But the tentacle didn't dodge or evade at all, and Ron's broken sword struck it.
With a burst of sparks, the opponent was completely unharmed.
Ron felt a chill; he knew these tentacles were much stronger than before.
Perhaps his strength has become weaker.
In short, dealing with these tentacles is not easy now.
However, Ron did not lose heart.
He glanced at Taiichiro, then slashed his own thigh with a knife.
They simply pulled that piece of meat off.
Taiichiro saw this and was secretly alarmed.
If it were him, he probably wouldn't have been able to do this.
Ron groaned, the intense pain causing him to feel dizzy.
Fortunately, he forced himself to persevere.
Even so, he could feel a cold sweat breaking out on his body.
"Can you do this?"
Taiichiro looked at Ron with some concern; he could feel Ron's pain.
Ron shook his head and said.
"Since things have come to this, we have no other choice but to do this."
After saying that, he grabbed Taiichiro again, and the two rushed towards their destination at top speed.
However, the group of tentacles had no intention of letting them go so easily.
The speed of those tentacles increased to a whole new level once again.
Ron heard a whooshing sound behind him, knowing that the tentacles had arrived.
"Throw me out."
Taichiro said suddenly.
Ron glanced at Taiichiro with some surprise.
"How could that be? Don't say things like that again."
But Taiichiro shook his head.
"I have absolutely no hope of surviving now."
If this continues, none of us will escape.
It would be better to throw me out and let me face them; maybe that can shield you from some of their attacks.
Then you'll have a chance to escape.
Ron, however, said...
"The reason we've been able to survive is because we've always helped each other."
If I abandon you now, I have no chance of surviving even if I run away alone.
At this point, Ron increased his speed again.
The tentacles behind them seemed to be moving even faster than before.
Ron felt a sense of crisis rising within him.
He knew this sense of crisis stemmed from his instincts.
Driven by this sense of crisis, he had to get moving faster.
"This won't do; if this continues, we'll never escape."
Taiichiro said urgently to Ron.
"It has been my greatest fortune to have met you."
But as you've seen, that's the current situation.
No one can escape without making certain choices.
After he finished speaking, he turned around and glanced at the group of tentacles that were rushing towards him.
He said calmly.
"Throw me over there, I can hold them off."
Ron knew that if Taichiro rushed into the thicket of tentacles, he would surely die.
These tentacles are incredibly powerful.
Moreover, their defensive capabilities are now extremely impressive.
Even Ron's full-force attack couldn't completely kill them.
With such strength, Taichiro is no match for him; going there would only be suicide.
Taiichiro looked at the group of tentacles behind him and knew he had no choice.
If you want Ron to live, you have to make a sacrifice.
The tentacles are about to catch up with them, but their destination is still some distance away.
Taiichiro knew that this distance was impossible to reach in a short time.
Then they will definitely be attacked by these tentacles.
Taichiro said.
"Put me down quickly."
Ron said, "We must not give up as long as there is a glimmer of hope."
