You call me a calamity? But I am Hyper Zetton!

The human-faced spider's eight legs drooped limply, its face filled with utter despair.

It knew very well that it could not escape the clutches of the demon before it no matter what.

Wu Bai swallowed an egg and gave the order:

"Change back to human form. You're too big; it'll be too conspicuous to take you out."

The human-faced spider's body rapidly shrank, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a barefoot little girl.

Wu Bai paused in his eating, put the last egg into his mouth, and mumbled indistinctly, "I feel inexplicably guilty... but I have an even bigger appetite now."

Just then, a series of rapid splashing sounds came from the depths of the passage not far away...

...It was clearly the men from the Zhan'e Division who came down.

Without hesitation, Wu Bai took the two men and quickly retreated back to the manhole cover they had just come down from.

The three returned to the ground.

Wu Bai and Ji An greedily took a deep breath of fresh air.

The spider queen beside her rubbed her little feet, lowered her head, and still looked resigned to her fate.

Wu Bai reached out and patted her head.

"What? You seem quite unhappy about joining my harem?"

The Spider Queen stiffened, forcing out a smile that looked more like a grimace.

"I...I'm so happy...Your Majesty."

Wu Bai was about to make another joke when his pupils suddenly contracted.

"spread!"

The growl hadn't even landed yet.

The three reacted instinctively, launching themselves in three different directions almost simultaneously.

"boom……"

The ground where they had just stood instantly exploded, with cement blocks mixed with dirt shooting into the sky, and a thick plume of smoke rising and swirling in mid-air.

Amidst the smoke and dust, two figures, one golden and one seven-colored, appeared and disappeared.

It was already quite obvious who the person was.

Wu Bai's body rapidly expanded, reverting to Hyper Zetton's original form.

A tentacle grabbed the little girl and dragged her directly into the cocoon. Then he looked at Ji An.

"You should go first; staying here will only be a burden."

Ji An gritted his teeth, turned around, and in a few leaps, quickly disappeared from sight.

Wang is right. The opponent is a sixth-level expert, so there is no point in keeping him here.

If it were just Wang alone, there might still be a chance to escape.

As for the Spider Queen? She was essentially a reserve food source; the King has probably already consumed her to replenish his energy.

Wu Bai and the two figures faced off from a distance.

They didn't chase after Ji An; to them, those small fry were insignificant, killing Hyper Zetton was the real priority.

Wu Bai narrowed his eyes. He knew he couldn't beat Ye Lan in a head-on fight, so he had to run. But how to run was a problem.

He glanced at the little girl trembling inside the cocoon.

He hasn't eaten her yet, but if he really reaches a dead end, he will not hesitate to devour her to complete his metamorphosis.

This is his last trump card.

The little girl secretly glanced at Wu Bai, then quickly pulled her head back down and continued trembling, her mind in turmoil.

It's actually a Hyper Zetton?

How could someone with a Sequence 109 like myself end up in the harem of such a powerful figure?

Wouldn't that make me the real Spider Queen?

Why am I a little excited?

The poor little Spider Queen had no idea that she had become the "bottom-up catalyst".

Suddenly, countless tentacles shot out from Wu Bai's body.

But the attack wasn't aimed at Wu Minmin and Ye Lan; instead, it stabbed fiercely into the ground beneath their feet.

With a loud bang, the ground collapsed, and Wu Bai used the force to fall back into the sewer.

Wu Minmin and Ye Lan were both stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and chased after them.

……

In the sewers, the third squad of the Slayers, who were searching for the human-faced spider, stopped in their tracks.

The seven men looked at each other nervously, staring intently in the direction from which the sound came, and quickly set up their weapons, ready for battle.

Just then, countless tentacles shot out from the darkness toward them.

The tentacles instantly wrapped around everyone, and the sharp tips of the tentacles directly covered their eyes.

The seven struggled desperately, but to no avail.

The remaining tentacles weren't idle either; they shot into the ceiling above, and with the sound of concrete cracking, the ceiling collapsed, revealing a large hole.

Countless tentacles emerged from the large hole, binding the police officers and people in protective suits on the ground one by one, forcibly dragging them into the sewers, and similarly blocking their vision.

When Wu Minmin and Ye Lan arrived, what greeted their eyes was the sight of Hyper Zetton holding a large number of humans hostage and blocking their way.

"Gentlemen, let me leave, and I'll release them." Wu Bai's voice carried a hint of mockery.

Wu Minmin and Ye Lan exchanged a glance, and a cold smile simultaneously appeared on their lips.

The two raised their right hands, and light particles condensed wildly, revealing a golden lightsaber and a seven-colored halberd respectively.

Wu Minmin held the sword upright in front of her chest with both hands, and the sword's energy surged.

Ye Lan's long halberd pointed directly at Wu Bai, its tip gleaming with light.

In their logic, sacrificing a minority in exchange for eliminating the threat of future human extinction is entirely worthwhile.

"No, you really don't care whether they live or die?" Wu Bai's playful expression disappeared, and his expression became serious.

No, I'm the villain! Why aren't you playing by the rules?

He glanced at the Spider Queen, preparing to devour her to complete his final evolution, when suddenly something unexpected happened.

"Since you're prepared to abandon us, then nobody's going to have an easy time!" A dazzling burst of blue lightning suddenly erupted from one of the members of the Third Squad of the Slayers, who were bound by tentacles...

He actually planned to detonate the high concentration of methane gas that was spreading around him.

Wu Bai's pupils contracted sharply as he tried to pull the team member into the cocoon to isolate him, but he was too late.

Wu Minmin, Ye Lan, and Wu Bai's expressions changed drastically at the same time.

Ye Lan instantly released her accumulated power, and a pair of seven-colored wings on her back suddenly unfolded, then quickly closed, completely enveloping herself and Wu Minmin.

Wu Bai then stuffed the team member whose entire body was crackling with electricity into his mouth.

[Completed Consumption]

[Obtained Gene Fragment: Thunderous Might]

[Energy Reserves: 100%, Evolution Begins!]

"Boom..." First came an extremely muffled tremor, followed by endless flames that instantly filled the entire sewer space.

The long-accumulated marsh gas was ignited by lightning.

A terrifying wave of high-temperature air, mixed with raging flames, swept wildly towards both ends of the pipe.

The entire street collapsed instantly amidst a deafening roar.
