Chapter 167 Ghostly Intimidation
Before the words were finished, Chi Tong drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and three long arrows were shot out, like three-colored streams of light suddenly falling towards the three room doors.
At each doorway stood a giant, monstrous spider. Receiving the summons of the "Great Mother Goddess," it lightly tapped its eight legs on the white spiderweb and was about to rush out of the room when three arrows shot towards it, fast and ruthless.
The arrow shattered in mid-air, its outer shell breaking into three pieces that pierced the spider's body, while the steel core inside instantly pierced the ghost mask, pinning the giant spider to the ground.
The other two arrows each struck their targets. The doorway was narrow, and the spiders' enormous bodies had almost no way to avoid them, leaving both wounded.
They blocked most of the area at the entrance, briefly halting the enemy's reinforcements.
Zhong Ming was at a loss for what to do.
I don't really have any ranged attack methods. How about I use a sword control technique? I'd be grateful if it didn't attack friendly forces.
He gritted his teeth, leaned back, and then suddenly spat forward, sending out a round pill that left not only the spider bewildered but also Akame completely dumbfounded.
Moreover, it didn't explode; it just bounced a few times on the ground and rolled smoothly behind the fleeing people.
At this moment, the demon spider's eight eyes flashed, activating its innate divine power.
Golden Eyes·Ghosts.
Terrifying spiritual power focused on eight dazzling eyeballs. Under the terrifying pressure, space seemed to distort, and several people below immediately lost their balance. Several people's legs immediately went out of control and they fell to the ground. Another person held his neck with both hands, his lungs stopped working, and he was about to faint from lack of oxygen.
"Red Eyes, shoot the ball I spat out."
Upon hearing this, Akame flicked her fingers at her side and pulled out a very rare yet "very ordinary" feathered arrow from her quiver. She then nocked the arrow and drew it into the bow in one fluid motion.
"Whoosh~"
The arrow struck the bullet precisely, and the small sphere exploded instantly, billowing thick smoke. The explosion was so large that it obscured all those who had been intimidated within two breaths.
Although the smoke was ordinary, it was luxuriously mixed with powdered spirit stones. Originally intended to interfere with spiritual energy detection, it now also somewhat alleviated the supernatural abilities of the ghost spider.
The people inside the arena felt a sudden lightness in their bodies and immediately used their respective skills to flee for their lives towards their teammates who were there to help them.
Zhong Ming chuckled. This was something he had kept in his mouth to bite into and use as cover for his escape in case of an emergency, but it had come in handy to save someone today.
The giant spider hanging upside down on the ceiling was furious. How could it let the cooked duck fly away? With a flick of its rear end, strands of spider silk shot out, sticking to anything that touched it and pulling it away.
The people inside were also ruthless. One of them was accidentally touched by the fog, and immediately took off his clothes and shoes, cut his hair, and escaped.
Only one person was unlucky enough to be completely stuck, unable to move at all.
"Monster! Let me go!"
He screamed in terror, and the louder he screamed, the tighter the spider web tightened. Each time he spoke and exhaled, the web would shrink a little, taking away the space he needed to inhale.
"How dare you, you evil beast!"
How dare a mere second-grade demon beast provoke an entire army? The Ghost Spider's actions thoroughly enraged the veterans.
You fool, today I'll show you the power of the Chen Dynasty.
An old soldier formed the Hunyuan Heaven and Earth Incantation with both hands, summoned a golden paper umbrella, and threw it at the enemy.
Working in conjunction with the previously used burning spiderweb umbrella, one attacking and the other defending, they managed to withstand the monster's supernatural powers for a time.
Seeing how annoying the two parasols were, the demon spider retracted its eight legs, plummeted down, and crashed into the two large parasols.
Most demonic beasts still believe in physical strength, which is a cultivation behavior ingrained in their instincts. Although this demonic spider's body cannot reach the strength of the previous armored giant rhinoceros, its shell has been cultivated to be as hard as armor.
The golden umbrella neither dodged nor evaded the attack, but met it head-on, while the fiery umbrella slightly deflected, seemingly trying to dodge.
But the spider was cunning. It sprayed silk that hit the ground, pulled itself in mid-air to change direction, and stretched out its legs. The black barbs on its legs instantly grabbed the Flaming Umbrella.
"Not good." The veteran was covered in sweat. He forced the fire umbrella to launch an attack, and flames burst out from the spider's legs, as if to roast the spider.
Unexpectedly, the demonic spider moved even faster and more ruthlessly. Its two sharp fangs flashed with demonic power, and a strange corrosive toxin covered its teeth. With one bite, the parasol shattered on the spot. Then, it inserted its legs and tore the parasol to shreds.
The veteran coughed up a mouthful of blood, clutched his chest, and was heartbroken.
One person nearby threw out a rope and was pulling back those who were unable to move. The others were either pulling the rope together or providing cover for the attack. When the magic weapon failed, someone immediately stepped in.
“Brother Umbrella, things have come to this point, so let’s take advantage of the situation. You put down that golden umbrella to block the demon’s path, and I’ll burn the spider.”
Zhong Ming tried to sneak forward to find an opportunity, but before he could take two steps, he saw a big man with a red face and a beard, with bulging eyes and eyebrows like twin peaks. For a moment, he didn't know who the monster was.
Without further ado, the burly man took a few steps forward, tilted his gourd back, and gulped down a large mouthful of wine. His face turned as red as a demon's. He snapped his fingers, and a ball of purple flame rose from his fingertips.
"drink!"
He spat out a mouthful of strong liquor, and flames immediately poured out, creating a thick pillar of fire that shot straight at the monster.
As the demonic spider was about to retreat, the golden umbrella descended from above, covering its rear and blocking one of its paths. Undeterred, it shot out a spider silk thread, which struck a blue brick on the wall, intending to use the silk to pull itself away.
In the blink of an eye, the red-eyed arrow shot out, and the violent explosion blasted the wall open. With the wall no longer solid, the blue stone brick was dragged by the spider silk at an alarming speed and smashed down on the monster's head.
The flames engulfed the spider.
What has Zhong Ming been doing all this time?
Um......
We are clearing away the late spring cold snap.
Zhong Ming took out the Late Spring Cold weapon and bluntly stated that every inch of this hook-and-sickle spear had been soaked in the stomach acid of a certain monster, and he didn't even know where to hold it anymore.
Now, he had taken off his underwear and barely managed to clean the hook-and-sickle spear before the underwear was completely corroded by the strange stomach acid.
Seeing the enemy engulfed in flames, several cultivators skilled in close combat began to charge forward, and he quickly followed suit.
As the flames subsided, swords, spears, and halberds were unleashed, aimed precisely at the head of the demon spider.
Zhong Ming gathered his strength, ready for the Great Cold, and had just taken a few steps forward when he saw a slightly smaller spider rushing towards him.
If the giant spider in the middle of the field is a colossal war chariot, then what is charging forward now is an armored cavalry unit.
Zhong Ming initially didn't want to pay attention to it, but seeing its enormous size, he couldn't help but turn his gun around. He sighed inwardly, realizing that the military merits from that giant spider were probably out of his reach.
