The tentacles lashed out in a coordinated turmoil, moving with serpentine movements.
They aimed to ensnare Leon, their speed a blur against the backdrop of the devastated forest. Each tentacle swung with a force that was capable of crushing boulders and slicing through trees.
Leon's dark shield, held by spectral hands, blocked the majority of the tentacles, but some managed to slip through. When they did, they struck with a thud, sickening sound, their force driving Leon back.
The tentacles wrapped around his body, their grip vice-like, attempting to constrict and drain his strength.
However, since his Draconic body had become quite hard and his physique had improved, Leon decided to use this properly to take some blows instead of wasting time running around.
Leon retaliated with a powerful dark-infused punch, his fist colliding with one of Vortugen's solidified forms.
