Chapter 843 Hand Tentacles

"Actually, I remember seeing that ugly smut during the Second World War, and that one had been artificially created. Not sure about this one. Could be the same." Kraft chimed as he had his own means to watch the broadcast the System was streaming. One hand on the trigger of his gun and the other holding his phone.

"Oh man, Jin's stunned body expression is as good as his stunned face." Kraft grinned as he took a phone screenshot of the stream while shooting a rat's face off. The bullets from his signature gun No Mercy did not stop there and continued to pierce some other rats' armours before they came back and joined the other bullets which were hovering around Kraft.

The crafty fox used his chi to manipulate the shot bullets, and he turned it into some 'protective' offensive barrier with the projectiles circling around him while he watched the following broadcast.

"What do you mean artificially created?!" Jin asked as he continued to grapple the Bone Spirit Infused Demons with Bam and Boo, now transformed into enormous power gauntlets. He needed the extra pow so they would punch the Demons into the portals as the System Rider protected the oblivious chanter standing right in the middle of his net.

However, he did not quite expect Bam and Boo's transformation. Instead of awesome looking mechanical power gauntlets like Itori's, his gloves actually appeared… as a pair of panda faces! The one on his right had the appearance of an angry (yet cute?!) panda face while the other had a cheeky (and also cute!) panda face.

Unfortunately, he had no time to comment as the Bone Spirit Infused Demons were actually coming too close for comfort to maim Pepper. Yet, there was one that slipped past him, and all Jin could do was warn Peppers to dodge.

With a smirk, Peppers stared at the Bone Spirit Crocodile Demon and pointed at it before releasing a blast of telekinetic power which caused the crocodile to flinch for a moment. Yet the flinching was only the first part of the spell as the crocodile turned its back towards his 'comrades' and shot out a breath of flame.

"Huh?! How come the flame had traces of Pepper's magic?" Jin was amazed by Peppers' control of magic, and the System explained that Peppers had used a series of quick cast spells to manipulate the monster to turn it into an extension of her.

"So, she does actually know spells other than – Woah!" The possessed crocodile swiped its tail in Jin's direction, but the dungeon supplier's senses were quick enough to dodge the backstabbing.

"I thought you said she could control it?" Jin questioned the System as he evaded and headed to punch another Demon into the net.

"Doesn't mean I will tolerate being insulted. My title as a Sage isn't just for show! Of course, I know spells other than explosions!" Peppers had already finished her spell incantation, and the staff was holding a charge of Explosion, waiting to be released at a moment's notice. ��Could you tell those two cultivators or soldiers to get out of the way? I won't take responsibility if they end up in the blast's radius."

"You just don't want them to take your kill, right? Maybe it's best we withhold your – Wait, are those hand tentacles coming towards us?!" Jin saw that four large hands moving towards them, ignoring the onslaught of attacks by the other two cultivators.

"Well, Loopa Ooofpa's title is the Unceasing Hunger for a good reason. He always craves more power and Peppers vast amount of mana makes her a very juicy target, especially now that she has all that energy accumulated." Moloch replied through the System Channel.

"Ah, found it. I was already worried I lost that photo, as it was taken decades ago." Kraft suddenly and finally answered Jin's question by letting the System upload the picture on a screen of the System Rider Suit. "See! Taking random pictures is a good habit, after all!" (Kids, please don't emulate Kraft!)

���Now is not the time!" Jin said as he concentrated his Maqi into his Bam and Boo panda faces. 

"Since they are faces, they should at least be able to do 'that', right?" Jin thought to himself as he could not think of any other methods to prevent Peppers from wasting her explosion magic charge on these hand tentacles. (What's more, he would be blown back, and the net he created would be useless with all the Bone Spirit Demons scattered throughout the forest once more.)

"Double Panda Yawning!" Jin shouted as he aimed his two gauntlets at them and the panda mouths immediately opened, allowing Jin to shoot two beams of chi towards the nearest hand tentacles that were approaching them. It obliterated the end of the first tentacle causing it to retract, but there were now two hand tentacles which approached him like a pincer claw.

Thus, he divided the power of the two beams separately in order to counter them, but he did not notice the third hand tentacle that was hiding within the forest bushes attempting to strike him head-on.

"Ah, Damnnit!" Jin cursed as he quickly prepared his very own Panda Yawning beam from his mouth and managed to discharge the beam in time to counter the third one.

"Master! Behind you!" Peppers shouted as she used the crocodile under her command to block the one that was attacking her. Unfortunately, with Jin occupied with all his hands and mouth full, there was no way to counter the one that emerged from the ground right behind him. Not to mention, his Maqi enhanced beams were not strong enough to destroy the hand tentacles when separated. He could only delay the tentacles that much.

Multiple scenarios were flashing within his mind such as transforming Bam and Boo quickly to counter the attack or summoning a few of his monsters to counter the hit. But none of that mattered when he suddenly saw a lady with an umbrella appear right in front of him, dangerously close to the beam he was shooting from his mouth. 

She immediately took out an inscription charm and activated it with her chi. Suddenly a Panda silhouette appeared and shot out the very same Panda Yawning beam. 

It burnt the overarching hand tentacle right above Jin before the Panda silhouette disappeared. Next, with a quick turn of her umbrella, the three hand tentacles that were plaguing Jin were immediately cut down, causing all of the hands to retract, allowing the System Rider to rescind his beams. 

It was only then that he noticed that the Maqi from the inscription was similar to his own. While he had his suspicion that it could be a limited item he sold, the surrounding aura should not be plagued with a dense aura of Maqi. 

Especially where the lady had cut the hand tentacles down.

"For you to use the very same chi as this particular inscription charm... Tell me where your Master is!" The lady demanded from afar as if she did not care about what was happening around them, only interested in learning the truth right there right now.

Meanwhile, Jin had no freaking idea what she was talking about.
