Chapter 161 The Mutated Leader Spider

What is the concept of a dozen monsters of over 2,200 levels? Anyway, ordinary players will definitely not be able to handle it. Of course, if that's all it is, it's not a big problem, because I can take down ten monsters of the same level by myself. The monsters in "Zero" usually cannot defeat players of the same level at the same level, and this is calculated based on the level of ordinary players. Based on my strength, it shouldn't be a problem to defeat ten monsters at the same level. What's more, there is Kristina here, and the remaining monsters can be taken care of even if Ashford and the others don't interfere.

However, these things will continue to absorb and fuse the power of their companions. When there are only a dozen of them, it can reach level 2,200. When there are only a few left, it may be close to level 3,000. When there are only two left, they can reach at least level 4,000. And if nothing else happens, the last one should be at least a level 5,000 monster. It is almost impossible for me to deal with such a powerful creature without the help of a magic pet. Of course, we may not necessarily lose, because Kristina is still here. At least when I entangle the last monster, she can prepare the strongest blow. With the firepower support of her humanoid turret, it is not impossible to deal with monsters of level 5,000. Moreover, unlike before, I also have the skill of returning to time. With this skill, I can actually do a lot of things.

Looking at the spider monsters swarming around me, I turned eternity directly into two long knives, holding them in my hands and firing them left and right, just like chopping vegetables.

He killed a circle of monsters around him. The monster level is still relatively low now, so it's relatively easy to kill, but that won't be the case after a while.

Because more and more advanced monsters have to leave magic power to fight, the monster level is currently low, so we try to avoid using skills. Even if we use normal attacks, we try to choose the attack method with the minimum amount of exercise in order to preserve physical strength.

Although we did not exert much effort in order to save magic power and physical strength, it was indeed too easy to face a thousand-level monster. In less than five minutes, the number of monsters on the scene dropped sharply from more than a thousand to less than three hundred. , but the problem is that the levels of the remaining monsters have also soared from level 1,000 to level 1,500 or 1,500.

My current level is 2222, and monsters at level 1,500 or 600 are still incredibly fragile in front of me, but this is not the case for Ashford and the others. Of course, it's not that this monster can threaten them, but they are now beginning to feel resistance in the battle.

The previous situation was like a person wielding a sword to chop at a bunch of moving paper figures. Although the opponent moved, it was still paper. It was broken in two after one pass, and there was no feeling at all. However, now they feel as if the paper man they are fighting has gradually turned into a clay man. Although the clay figurine is also very fast, you can still feel obvious resistance when you slash it with a knife.

After fighting like this for a few more minutes, the number of monsters on the battlefield had dropped to less than a hundred, but the situation became increasingly unoptimistic.

Our original calculation was that when there are less than twenty monsters left, their level will probably reach my level, which is around level 2,200. However, there are still **10 monsters, but the special level of these guys has actually exceeded level 2,000. This level is currently not as high as mine. I can still easily kill any monster here. Even if more than a dozen monsters surround me, it won’t cause any trouble. But the problem is, except for me, this place still looks... Kristina was the only one left with ease.

Whether it is Ashford or the Children of the Night, all their remaining personnel are now in a hard fight. Except my level has reached over 2,000. Only Kristina's level is closer to level 2,000. The others are basically above one thousand fourteen and below one thousand five, and the monsters here are already at level two thousand.

Although the monsters in "Zero" cannot beat players of the same level, it doesn't mean that players can easily fight monsters that are four or five hundred levels higher than themselves, right? Ashford and the others are considered masters, and their combat power is far stronger than that of ordinary players, but even so, being able to leapfrog and challenge monsters that are four to five hundred meters higher than themselves is already considered the limit. Although they can still kill monsters and ensure their own safety, the killing speed is already very slow. It can even be said that they are mainly protecting themselves, and they have almost no chance of killing monsters. At present, the only two people who can really deal with monsters are me and Kristina. Fortunately, there are not many monsters left. Otherwise, let alone persisting to the end, it would be impossible to pass this level now!

"Boss, the strength of these monsters has increased much faster than expected. What should we do?" Ye Zi asked with some worry.

"You guys just hang on, I'll be responsible for killing the monsters. As long as I can hold on until all the monsters are dead, I will have a way to kill these guys."

Ashford shouted over there: "But when the last one dies, all the monsters' power will be concentrated on that one monster. What should we do to defeat it!?"

"Don't worry about this. Anyway, I have a way to solve it."

After hearing what I said, Ashford and the others could only choose to believe me. Several people gathered together to protect Kristina in the middle. Then Kristina no longer grudged the magic power and directly fired the map cannon, killing more than 30 monsters in two or three strokes. I also took advantage of this opportunity to continuously attack He activated a small skill that was relatively low-cost but powerful, and knocked down more than thirty monsters in one breath.

With such efforts from both sides, there are only more than 20 monsters left. However, the level of the monsters at this time has reached more than 2,800 levels. This speed definitely exceeded our expectations, and it was by a large margin. It's exceeded. Now Ashford and the others don't talk about killing monsters.

Things are gone, and even self-protection is a problem. Christina no longer dared to use her ultimate move and just opened her shield to protect Ashford and the others. Tank and Ashford looked at Christina in front of them, which could be said to be extremely embarrassing. The team's main tank not only couldn't block in front, but actually asked the mage to stand in front to protect them, which made their faces feel burning pain. But even if they felt uncomfortable, they could only huddle behind Christina, because the monsters in front of them were all close to level 3,000. They could only block her for a moment at most, but the second blow could kill them directly.

Although she has changed from a protected person to a shield, Christina's combat effectiveness is unquestionable. Even if the monsters are now much higher level than her, she can still continue to fight and can still cause certain damage to the monsters. .

The battle between me and Christina is slightly easier. On the one hand, I am stronger than Christina. On the other hand, Christina needs to protect Ashford and the others, so she cannot fight with all her strength. But on my side, I am alone, so I can let go of the attack, so the combat effect is better on my side.

Due to the sharp decline in the number of monsters, I no longer use dual swords. I gathered eternity into a long knife and waved it horizontally. With a sharp howl, a monster jumped down from the top of the cave and one third of its body was cut off by me. But even so, this The things didn't die immediately, but they struggled in the water for a long time before they died completely.

After successfully killing this monster, I felt wind pressure coming from behind. I slid to the side, and then used the power of turning to slash horizontally. With a bang, a monster was cut into two pieces by me, and it remained the same as before. It fell into the water and struggled violently. Of course, the monster that was cut in half could not survive anymore. However, after killing this monster, I suddenly found that all the monsters around me stopped attacking. When I turned around and took a look, I realized that all the monsters in the underground passage had gathered near the altar, and Christina They all came to my side.

There was a brief pause in the battle, and Ashford and the others took the opportunity to quickly take some medicine to replenish the consumed magic power and health, and more importantly, replenish their physical strength. It doesn't matter if health and magic power are temporarily low during combat, but physical strength must be sufficient, because players will show fatigue after their physical strength drops to a certain level, which will seriously affect combat effectiveness.

"Why don't they attack?" Looking at the monsters gathered over there, I turned and asked Ashford. After all, they have tried this task n times. Although they have never completed it once, this place They have been here many times, so they should know something about it.

Sure enough, Ashford immediately replied: "It should be the mother worm coming out."

"Mother worms? Aren't these the only ones?"

"No." Alice replied on behalf of Ashford: "There is also a female insect here, and all these monsters are the offspring of the female insect. When the number of little monsters here is killed to less than twenty, , that huge female insect will appear."

"Holy crap, should we kill these monsters now?" Kristina asked aloud. After all, there are twenty level 3,000 monsters here, which is enough to cause a headache. If there is one more powerful one, it will be life-threatening!

But it is a pity that Kristina's suggestion was directly rejected. "Absolutely not." Ashford said: "The level of this female insect is actually not fixed. It will appear when less than twenty little monsters are killed, and at this time, regardless of whether the remaining little monsters are At any level, its level will be the level of the little monster plus five hundred."

"That means this female insect will be level 3,500 when it comes out?" The Son of Night asked.

Ashford nodded and said: "It's not just a matter of level 3,500. In fact, the mother worm and these little worms are considered part of this swarm. It doesn't count when it didn't appear before. From the time it appeared, After the death of the monsters here, the superposition of strength will also include the mother worm."

Hearing this, Kristina said directly: "I understand. The combat power of the female insect will definitely surpass that of the small insect. If one monster dies in the end, the remaining one is the female insect, which will definitely be more difficult to deal with than the small monster, so Priority must be given to getting rid of the female worms.”

"Yes, this is the lesson we have learned from many failures here. We must not leave the female insect until the end, and we must kill it as early as possible. It is best to kill the remaining twenty insects before they are dead. Get rid of the female worm.”

Now that we know the problem, we no longer want to take advantage of it. It would be better to wait for the female worm to appear first. According to general convention, this kind of little spider monster is an ordinary monster. No matter how high the level is, they are still ordinary monsters with average abilities, but their basic attributes are relatively high. But the mother worm is at least a leader monster. Not only does its thinking attributes comprehensively surpass those of the mobs at the same level, but it will also definitely have a long list of additional attributes. Therefore, if the female insect becomes the last monster, it will definitely become our nightmare.

We decided to kill the female insects first when they came out, but the female insects over there didn't keep us waiting long. (What nonsense) Less than ten seconds after the mobs gathered there, the altar I teleported back suddenly flew upwards. It wasn't rising, it was really flying. It suddenly flew away (still nonsense), and then hit the roof of the cave with a bang and broke into hundreds of pieces flying everywhere. At the same time, the huge thing below the altar In the entrance of the cave, there is a spider that looks almost the same as those spiders, but its size is

The giant spider monster, which was dozens of times more protruding, suddenly emerged from the ground. After coming out, this guy actually supported the front half of his body and let out a piercing scream at us with his two huge fangs.

Spiders in reality probably don't scream, at least I haven't heard any spiders scream. But this spider monster can scream, and the voice is not quiet, but it is extremely unpleasant and even harsh.

After this guy let out a scream, he lowered the front half of his body, and it was only then that we discovered that this guy was actually somewhat different from his descendants.

This huge female spider is not all black like the little spiders. Its main color is indeed black, but this thing has many bright red patterns on its body, which looks unusual against the black background. Bright. However, in addition to being beautiful, this bright color mostly means warning and deterrence. The bright red color seems to be warning others that it is poisonous and very dangerous.

In addition to the slight difference in color from her offspring, another obvious difference between this female spider and her descendants is that there are two rows of spiracles on the front of her cephalothorax, outside of her eight eyes.

There are eight blowholes in total, four on each side. The inner diameter of the stomata is about slightly thicker than a human thumb, and they are close together in two vertical rows on both sides of the female spider's cephalothorax.

It is said that the stomata of arthropods should grow in the abdomen, but it is not clear whether the thing in front of you can be regarded as an arthropod. After all, there are too many magical creatures in the game, and this cannot be classified according to the rules of reality. of. However, I always feel that the blowholes on both sides of this monster's head are not just for breathing.

My idea was soon confirmed. After completely getting out of the ground, this guy suddenly pointed his head at us without any hesitation. Then I only heard two muffled pops. The movement was very small, similar to the sound of a silenced pistol firing, but in these two At the same time as the muffled sound came out, I suddenly saw something flying towards us.

My dynamic vision is unparalleled and I can see even bullets flying through the air, so this thing isn't exactly very fast for me. The moment the thing flew towards me, I suddenly stretched out the eternity and lifted it horizontally. I felt a strong force coming from my hand, followed by a crisp sound, sparks flying from the side of the eternity, and then I saw the flying thing turn around and fly directly to the top of the cave, and then nailed into the rock on the top of the cave with a bang.

"Holy shit, why is this thing carrying a concealed weapon?" I asked Ashford in surprise, because he should have informed me of such an important matter first. But what happened just now happened too fast, Ashford and the others were all Before he could react, Ashford only remembered to explain after hearing my question: "I don't know! I've been hit so many times before, but I've never seen this guy fire a concealed weapon!"

"What the hell is that?" Tank asked in surprise as he looked up at the hidden weapon with only a little tail left on the roof of the cave.

The Son of the Night disappeared directly from us, and the next second appeared at the top of the cave and hugged the tail of the hidden weapon, and then let his own weight hang on that thing. However, the hidden weapon that we thought would be pulled down actually did not move at all. It seemed that the thing was inserted too deep into the cave ceiling and was stuck quite tightly.

After trying it, it didn't move. The Night Child tried to pull it off, but the female spider over there moved first. This guy suddenly raised the front of his body a little. As soon as I saw this action, I knew that this guy was going to launch that thing again, so I quickly kicked off the ground and jumped up.

Sure enough, as soon as I took off, several hidden weapons flew out from the other side. Eternal Life, which had turned into the form of a silver hook gun, was held horizontally in my hand and stretched forward. The two hidden weapons flew away with a clanking sound, followed closely by the gun. I hit it under my body and missed another one with a clang, but the fourth one was too late to block it with Eternity. I could only let go of Eternity and twist to dodge this thing. At the same time, it flew past me. While turning sideways, he suddenly grabbed the tail of the thing.

Because I had blocked several of them before, I knew that this thing was very powerful. When I reached out, I used all my strength. The thing slipped in my hand for a while and I finally caught it. Only after I landed did everyone see what this hidden weapon looked like.

This thing is more suitable to be called an exposed weapon than a hidden weapon, because the size of this thing is already larger than an ordinary bow and arrow.

In fact, what I grabbed was a spike that was over a foot long and slightly thicker than my thumb. The outer layer of the spike is not round, but has an arrow-like shape, but it is not a flat arrow, but a three-dimensional arrow like a cross star. However, these spikes are different from human arrows. Bows and arrows only have a spiked arrow at the end of the arrow. However, the arrow structure on this thing extends from the tip to the end, and the sharp extensions protrude from the four main axes. The object does not extend in a straight line to the end, but is spirally wound around the main axis. This structure is a bit like a turnbuckle on a screw, but the rotation range is not as large as the turnbuckle. The whole distance from the tip of the spike to the tail is so long, this kind of turnbuckle only rotates ninety degrees. However, although the rotation amplitude is very small, it is conceivable that this kind of thing will inevitably rotate due to air resistance when flying at high speed. The final effect is to give the spikes the same characteristics as bullets, that is, relying on the rotation of rotating objects. The self-stabilizing specific ballistic trajectory will not deviate.

In fact, the four protrusions around the spike are not flat. These four protrusions are more like the dorsal fins on the back of the fish, and they have the structure of a shark fin. The entire spike is made up of four rows of triangular shark fin structures from head to tail. These things

In addition to allowing the spikes to rotate during flight to achieve a stable trajectory, they can also function as barbs. No wonder the Son of Night was hanging on the spikes on the roof of the cave before and couldn't pull it out. It turned out that the barbs were stuck in the stone, and the four protruding ridges were spiral-shaped. , so the resistance is even greater. If you want to pull this thing out of the body, you can't hope to tear off several kilograms of flesh from the body.

I probably glanced at the spikes briefly and was about to throw them away, when I suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some air holes arranged under the four protruding ridges on the spikes, and I could see something moving inside. Feeling strange in my heart, I just used force to break the entire spike into two pieces. It turned out that it was fine without breaking. As soon as it was broken, I was shocked immediately. I saw a dense group of small spiders crawling out from inside the spikes and starting to crawl up my arm. This spike is actually hollow inside, and there are a lot of little spiders inside. What if it were shot into a human body, and then these little spiders got into the human body??????? Just thinking about it makes me feel chilled all over.

I wasn't afraid of the little spiders on my arms. I activated a little magic power, and the hellfire all over my body flashed and went out, while the little spiders were cleaned up instantly. These tiny spiders, which are not even level one, are just incidental attributes of the spike attack. Their physical survivability is very weak, and it is very easy to clean them up. Of course, this means that they have not entered the body. If the sharp thorns penetrate the body, and then these small things get into the body, it will be troublesome to clean up. Unless someone like Christina, who can switch to an elemental body at any time, can completely ignore this problem, others will probably have to work hard to solve it. Of course, if it doesn't work, you can use self-abuse to give yourself a lightning strike or something. After the whole body is electrified, all these little things will definitely die. Of course, it is not a good thing to shock yourself for no reason.

"Damn it, wasn't this thing so powerful last time?" Ashford and Alice all screamed when they saw the little spiders I found. Twenty level 3,000 monsters were already troublesome, but not only did a level 3,500 boss monster appear, but it also had many new skills, especially the spikes that could carry little spiders inside. , even if it has no attack power, just the sight of little spiders swarming out can scare many female players.

"I think I know what's going on." The Son of the Night explained: "You have been here faster than this time, and you said that the level of this female spider is not fixed, but based on the levels of the previous twenty little monsters. Add five hundred to get the level of the big monster. In other words, this big spider is the highest level you have ever seen before. I think the skills of this big guy are probably increasing based on the level. When you encountered it before Its level is very low, so it has not evolved such powerful skills. This time it is entirely because its level has been upgraded, so it naturally has some new abilities."

I nodded and said: "It should be about the same. I just hope this is the only new ability that comes out. Don't let any more troublesome abilities appear! We may not be able to handle it now. it!"

"Boss" Kristina suddenly called me.

I looked at her doubtfully and asked, "What are you doing?"

"You may have the potential for a crow's mouth."

"Huh?" After hearing what Kristina said, my first reaction was not to be angry, but to look at the female spider opposite. It turned out that just like Kristina said, I really have the potential of a crow's mouth.

Which female spider not only has other new skills, but also seems to be very difficult to deal with.

While we were studying the female spider, this guy stretched out its eight long legs and let its body leave sleep. Then its abdomen sank, and after a burst of contraction, it dropped a foot directly into the river. There is a slime mass over eighty centimeters high. Although the outside of this thing is full of mucus, we confirmed at a glance that this thing is definitely an egg, and the spider monster must be inside. It's just that it's not yet sure whether it will give birth to a low-level spider in its original form, or whether it will give birth to a level 3,000 spider directly based on the current monster level. If it can produce level 3,000 spider monsters, then we will really be in big trouble.

"Attack, attack! We can't let it lay eggs. The more monsters there are, the harder it will be for us to deal with them!" As soon as I confirmed that this thing was laying eggs, I ran out. At the same time, I raised my hand to point at the monster before anyone got close. The slime ball fired a crossbow bolt.

Unexpectedly, the female spider actually moved her long blade-like legs to block the slime ball while I was shooting the crossbow. However, I only heard a ding sound, and a golden light flashed past, directly penetrating through its long legs. The slime ball was blown to pieces again.

For the arrow just now, I used the soul-chasing arrow that comes with the Avengers. Although it can be replenished automatically in case of emergency, it takes time to recover, so it cannot be used continuously, but in terms of power, it is still very powerful. At least this The armor-breaking and demon-breaking abilities of the things were extremely good, but the female spider's saber legs had no effect at all and was directly passed through, unable to block the golden arrow.

Because of the star pupil, as long as I make contact with the target, I can read the rough attributes of the target, and for creatures that are not much stronger than me, I can get detailed attributes alone. The arrow just exploded the slime ball, and I immediately saw the properties of the thing inside.

"Damn it. There is a level 3,000 monster in that egg! We must not let it regenerate!"
