Joan was very satisfied with the effect of "Charming Strange Monster". While his companions were cleaning the battlefield, he communicated with the tentacle monster who was enchanted by himself through the mind connection. It turned out that the thought of the tentacle monster was very simple.
In the perception of tentacles, all living things in the world can be classified into three categories: edible, inedible, and unaffordable.
The tentacles attacked those "eatable" creatures without a trace of pity, but when they encountered natural enemies that they could not afford, they would always hide carefully.
Even with such a simple cognitive concept, occasional misjudgments can occur-such as today's encounter.
In the concept of tentacles, all creatures that are similar in appearance, except for the difference in physical strength due to different ages, the difference in strength will not be too wide.
For example, they have a family of tentacles. After all the individuals have matured, their combat effectiveness is similar. This tentacle monster can't be replaced by another tentacle monster.
Any intelligent creature has a way of thinking about itself and others, and tentacles are no exception.
The tentacle monster captured by Joan has hunted humanoid creatures more than once. Those gnomes and goblins living in the underground world are classified as "edible" by it. When hunting such creatures, there is no Encountered too many threats.
According to its own situation and past hunting experience, the tentacles have reason to sum up such a "truth" that they think is generally applicable:
All humanoids have similar strengths and can be hunted with confidence.
However, today's encounter completely overthrows this rule it has summed up from experience.
Tentacles haven’t figured it out until now. Joan and these explorers from the surface world are obviously looking like those humanoid creatures they have easily hunted before. Why is their combat power so different?
These questions circling in the mind of the tentacles made Joan funny.
These strange creatures living in occluded underground spaces have limited knowledge. They neither understand what is a "superior profession", nor do they understand the highly developed human civilization, which makes the gap between human individuals so immeasurable.
The tentacle's way of thinking is wrong in trying to generalize the laws by observing a few samples, which reminds Joan of a rather ironic fable story.
The wise men among a group of turkeys, based on long-term observations, summed up a rule: Every morning at eight o'clock, there will be food falling from the sky.
The wise man announces his discovery to other turkeys, and believes that behind this rule, it must reflect the eternal truth in the universe.
However, at eight o'clock the next morning when it discovered the truth, it was no longer food that fell from the sky, but the big hand that the owner of the chicken farm grabbed at the neck of the wise man, and the butcher's knife held tightly in the other hand...
After laughing, Joan suddenly shuddered.
The tentacle monster only generalizes the conclusion that all humanoids are invulnerable through the experience of hunting underground gnomes and goblins. This is obviously wrong. Then through a few experimental samples, you have reached a research conclusion. To generalize?
This self-proclaimed smart person has not been making the same mistakes as the tentacle blame, at best is it a "chicken wise man"?
The thing that annoys Joan the most is that he suddenly realizes a terrible fact: In the real world, induction can never lead to absolutely credible truth.
This means that his research methods in the past may not be reliable from the foundation, but in addition to induction, what other ways can people seek for truth?
Unable to answer this problem, Joanne had to give up thinking temporarily and instead perform "Higher Endoscopy" to check the physical attributes of the tentacles.
...
Detection target: tentacle monster (supernatural creature, strange monster)
Health status: Weak
Attributes: Strength 15, Agility 14, Constitution 13, Intelligence 6, Wisdom 11, Charisma 9
Supernatural ability: electromagnetic affinity
...
What does "electromagnetic affinity" mean? Joan secretly wondered.
He was about to have an in-depth discussion with the tentacles on this issue, and Hailar's call came from behind him.
"Joan, there is a dead body of tentacles here. Would you like to bring it back to school as a specimen?"
"Okay, let me deal with the body."
Joan turned and walked to his companion's side, cast a 3-ring "shrinkage" on the body of another tentacle monster, and then stuffed the body into a travel backpack dedicated to collecting ore and biological specimens.
"There is also a living tentacle monster, what are you going to do with it?" Holden came over and asked.
"My "mosquito finger technique" is about to reach the time limit. Instead of casting a new blood mosquito, let the tentacles explore the way in front and guide us."
Blood mosquitoes are too fragile to be good spies, but they are not very suitable as scouts for exploring in dark areas.
Not to mention the powerful monsters encountered, just the bats flying in groups in the dark. For blood mosquitoes, they are terrible natural enemies. They were swallowed by the bats with little attention.
Compared to blood mosquitoes, the tentacles' survivability is obviously much stronger, and they also have the ability to fly, making them more suitable for scouts for expedition teams.
Introducing his companions to his companions, Joanne photographed a "synesthesia" on the charmed tentacle monster and let it explore the way.
The tentacle monster swings ten tentacles, like a huge scout balloon, slowly floating in the dark dome.
Ten minutes later, the tentacle monster has risen to the top of the cliff, hovering slowly in the air.
Through the senses of the tentacles, Joan confirmed that there were no other dangerous creatures above, and turned back to nod to his companion, indicating that he could continue his journey.
The only exit from the navel is a thousand yards above the ground.
Qiao An originally wanted to transform into an eagle and flew up, then thought about it, thinking that there was no need to waste spell slots, he used the supernatural ability of "worm blood" to become a giant bee.
Hailar and Zion’s brother and sister have heard that he was infected with "Insecticide", but this is the first time he saw him become a giant bee, very curious, fighting to stroke his wings and tentacles. It made him feel itchy.
Hailar and Holden both have the ability to fly, but Audrey is a bit difficult-her Pegasus "Lafayette" is an arrogant girl who does not like to fly in a dark and closed environment.
Seeing Audrey's concerns, Joan flicked her wings at her, and signaled that Her Royal Highness was riding on her back, and she was carrying the leap over the cliff.
"My armor is not light, can you carry it?" Audrey asked with some worry.
Joan couldn't speak when he turned into a giant bee form, he shook his tentacles, and a pair of huge ebony complex eyes exuded a confident look, ensuring that he would Her Royal Highness Princess to a thousand-yard cliff.
