Digimon: I reached the top using the Knight item.

[Poisonous Spider Beast: Mature stage, Insect type, Virus species. Strength rating: C-.]

The information provided by the system this time made Bai Yu pause for a moment.

C-level?

Immediately afterwards, another stream of information was poured into his mind.

[Ding! A new strength assessment system has been detected. Based on the valuable suggestion of a certain 'Yan Zu', the strength assessment has now been subdivided into two sub-levels: + and -, for a total of three sub-levels. For example, 'C-' is lower than 'C', which is lower than 'C+'.]

Bai Yu processed the information almost instantly, then returned his thoughts to the battlefield.

Bai Yu continued to activate his ability, and the chilling aura traveled along the spider silk, spreading towards the poisonous spider beast at a visible speed.

Upon seeing this, the venomous spider clinging to the wall immediately cut its silk threads.

But the next second, a chain flashing with cold light came swiftly and precisely wrapped around one of the Poison Spider Beast's legs.

This is another weapon for the Frostbeast Armor Form: Frostchain Whip.

Bai Yu pulled hard on the whip, yanking the poisonous spider beast off the wall and pulling it toward him.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Yu raised his other hand, the ice crystal claw blades on his arm flashing with a dangerous light, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

The venomous spider beast, forcibly pulled over, let out a sharp screech in mid-air, then opened its mandibles covered with barbs and unleashed its ultimate attack.

"Piercing poison needle!"

The venomous spider beast's fangs were coated with a layer of purplish-black energy as it bit into the ice crystal claw blade that Bai Yu had swung.

"Zi-"

The venom spreads extremely quickly. The translucent ice-blue color of the bite mark on the ice crystal claw blade is rapidly being replaced by an ominous purplish-black, and it continues to spread.

However, Bai Yu showed no panic whatsoever. With a thought, the ice crystal wings on his left back suddenly shattered, turning into dozens of extremely sharp ice crystal fragments.

Under Bai Yu's mental control, the projectiles rained down on the nearby poisonous spider beast.

"Puff puff!"

A series of rapid piercing sounds rang out, and the venomous spider beast was instantly riddled with holes, with purplish-black blood splattering everywhere.

"hiss--!"

The venomous spider beast let out a wail of extreme pain.

Bai Yu pressed his advantage, his icy claws carrying a chilling wind as he swiftly slashed at the Poison Spider Beast.

One cut, two cuts, three cuts...

Under the relentless slashing, the Poison Spider Beast's body was completely dismembered and chopped into several pieces.

Ultimately, its remains completely collapsed in mid-air, turning into a sky full of flying data.

Bai Yu took out a blank [Knight's Dial] from the system space and aimed it at the dissipating data.

The data was absorbed in its entirety.

With a crisp electronic sound, the [Poisonous Spider Beast Dial] was successfully completed.

Chapter 57: Poisonous Spiders Fill Bottles

Bai Yu stored the newly made [Poisonous Spider Beast Dial] into his system space, and then flew towards the window again.

During the flight, Bai Yu's mind was racing.

How come there are two poisonous spider beasts?

The Digimon that was blasted out of that window and vanished as data was also a VenomSpidermon.

Could it be that there is more than one Digimon materialized this time?

Bai Yu's gaze swept quickly across the surroundings, and as he looked at the dense spider webs, his heart sank.

I'm afraid... there are more than two.

Such a large amount of spider silk could not have been produced in such a short time unless there were a sufficient number of venomous spider beasts.

Bai Yu flew in through the broken window and landed steadily.

This is a hospital room, but it's now a complete mess.

The room was empty.

Bai Yu didn't linger. He walked through the ward and came to the corridor outside.

The corridor was also empty.

Bai Yu stopped and listened carefully to the sounds around him.

Soon, a very faint, suppressed sobbing reached his ears.

Having confirmed the direction from which the sound came, Bai Yu did not hesitate and immediately headed in that direction.

Bai Yu went up one floor and stopped outside a hospital room.

The crying was coming from inside.

Upon opening the ward door, Bai Yu saw a large group of people crammed into the room.

There were patients in hospital gowns with pale faces, and nurses in nurses' uniforms with faces full of fear. They huddled together, trembling.

When the people inside saw Bai Yu in her current form...

"what--!"

A piercing scream instantly shattered the oppressive silence in the ward.

The ward erupted into chaos, filled with cries and screams.

"Monster!"

"Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!"

The group was thrown into chaos by fear, their faces filled with terror.

"Quiet!" Bai Yu shouted loudly.

"I've come to save you!"

Upon hearing Bai Yu speak, the chaotic shouts in the room instantly subsided.

Everyone was stunned, looking at Bai Yu warily with a mixture of fear and suspicion.

Just then, a strange "click-clack" sound came from the window of the ward.

Bai Yu immediately looked over and saw another venomous spider beast preparing to break through the window, its green compound eyes staring at the group of trembling "prey" inside the room.

Without any hesitation, Bai Yu swung his 'Frost Chain Whip'.

"Whoosh!"

The chain whip shattered the window glass in an instant, then lashed heavily against the soft belly of the venomous spider beast.

"hiss--!"

The venomous spider-beast let out a sharp hiss in pain.

The intense pain completely aroused its ferocity. It opened its mandibles, which were covered with barbs, and suddenly sprayed out a large amount of sticky spider silk towards the people in the room!

With a thought, Bai Yu's ice crystal wings instantly disintegrated, turning into countless ice crystal fragments, which then quickly reassembled into a huge ice shield.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

All the spider silk was blocked by this solid ice shield.

Immediately afterward, Bai Yu leaped to the window and shouted, "What are you all standing there for?! Run! What are you all standing around looking at?!"

Bai Yu's shout finally brought the people in the room back to their senses.

"Quick! Run!"

"Let's go!"

Without further hesitation, they rushed towards the corridor one after another.

After everyone in the room had run out, Bai Yu immediately pressed the dial and drive on his waist and then spun it around once.

"The End Time!"

Powerful electronic sound effects filled the empty hospital room.

"Frost Claws - Zero Degree Tear!"

A massive amount of icy blue energy instantly condensed on Bai Yu's claws, which he then swung out in a crisscross motion.

Two enormous icy claw phantoms, carrying a chilling aura that could tear everything apart, instantly traversed the distance and struck the poisonous spider beast squarely.

"Snap—"

The body of the venomous spider beast, along with the wall in front of it, was completely frozen the moment it came into contact with the illusory ice claw.

Immediately afterwards, with a crisp cracking sound, the huge block of ice exploded, and the body of the Poison Spider Beast was also shattered into pieces, turning into data.

Looking at the scattered data, Bai Yu hesitated for a moment.

How about making another [Poison Spider Beast Dial]?

There's no need for it. Making more of the same type of prop will only take up space and won't have any real effect.

Immediately, Bai Yu had a thought and took out a brand new item from the system space.

It was no longer the 'blank dial' of before, but a 'blank bottle' that was only the length of a finger, completely transparent, and looked like a miniature beverage bottle.

Bai Yu aimed the mouth of the 'blank bottle' in his hand at the data that was about to disappear.

A suction force emanated from the bottle opening, and the data, as if drawn by a current, was sucked into the bottle in a torrent of information.

As the data was fully absorbed, the 'blank bottle' changed instantly.

[Bottle full of poisonous spiders] - Successfully made!

Bai Yu looked at the bottle in his hand.

The bottle is entirely matte black. Embedded in the center is a crimson spider outline relief, and inside the spider outline are many tiny fluorescent green spots that emit a faint glow.

With a thought, Bai Yu retrieved the new item into the system space.

He then turned back into the corridor, listened for a moment, and quickly walked to the door of another ward, pushing the door open.

All those who fled in panic are now huddled together in this ward, hiding.

Bai Yu was immediately furious.

"I told you to run, not to find another place to hide and run outside, don't you understand?"

His question made everyone in the room shrink back, and no one dared to answer.

After a few seconds, a middle-aged man in the crowd, who seemed a little braver, finally spoke up tremblingly: "You...you can't escape."

"Those who went outside before were all turned into cocoons by those giant spider monsters."

These words reminded Bai Yu of the white cocoons of varying sizes hanging on the spiderwebs he had seen outside the building before.

Bai Yu said to these people, "Then follow me, I will take you out."

Upon hearing this, a joyful commotion suddenly erupted in the previously lifeless ward.

"Really? That's great!"

"It's saved!"

Amid the chaos, a young girl dressed as a nurse pushed her way to the front, pleading with Bai Yu through a sob, "There are still many people in this hospital, please, could you... could you take them all out with you?"

Bai Yu did not refuse; his purpose in coming here was to save people.

Then, Bai Yu led the group to search the building for other people who were still hiding.

Upon searching, he discovered that the situation was much more complicated than he had imagined.

There were just too many people.

The floor that Bai Yu first entered had been the site of a battle, so everyone on that floor had fled to other floors.

But people were hiding on the other floors, more or less.

Whatever the hospital ward, office, restroom, or even operating room.
