Exploding God

"Here's your knife back."

Lu Ze turned around and casually handed over the knife.

With tears still wet on his face, Lü Geng stiffly stretched out his hands.

The familiar weight, the familiar dark blade, and the black handle with a dedicated energy docking port.

This is my own knife!

But ahead...

Gulp, Lü Geng swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

He stared at the neatly arranged corpse of the giant spider, feeling as if he hadn't yet recovered from the dream.

One strike, twenty kills...

Is this something my own knife is capable of doing?

The person who started all of this, the high school student in front of me, didn't have a single drop of blood on him, and still had that gentle and casual look in his eyes.

It was as if he had just done something insignificant.

Lu Geng opened his mouth, wanting to say thank you, but felt that all gratitude seemed so pale at this moment.

"Thank you, I..."

Lu Ze stopped Lü Geng from bowing to express his gratitude, and said with a smile, "I just did something convenient at the right time, but all the time before that was earned by yourselves. So, you should thank yourselves more for never giving up."

I never gave up.

Lu Geng felt as if his heart was about to leap out of his throat; those words struck his very soul.

He stared intently at Lu Ze, took a half-step back, and, with a resounding bow, held the knife firmly in his hands: "I, Lü Geng, owe you a life!"

At this point, a flash of inspiration struck Lü Geng, and he suddenly looked up, finally realizing what he had overlooked.

"Brother Lu, and the captain, the captain and the others—"

"No casualties." Lu Ze looked at the battered Ranger mech and asked with a smile, "Is it still able to move?"

"Of course, I could kill another one in a one-on-one fight." Lü Geng nodded vigorously.

"Alright, let's make a deal." Lu Ze's tone was full of persuasive charm.

transaction?

"W-what deal?" Lu Geng suddenly stammered, he really couldn't keep up with the train of thought.

"The kill points for the Terror Spider are yours, and the Spider Silk Sac is mine."

"Of course, you'll be responsible for the cutting. If the deal goes through, just blink," Lu Ze said with a smile.

Lu Geng blinked blankly; please forgive his straightforward brain, which genuinely crashed for a moment.

Is the focus really on those silk pouches...?

This kind of perspective is probably the difference between me and the experts.

"Deal." Lu Ze nodded in satisfaction, turned around and looked ahead, "After the Terror-Eating Spider dies, the spider silk protein in its abdomen will lose its activity within 10 seconds, but a certain amount of active protein can be preserved in the silk sac, which is located 1.5 meters inside the tail of the Terror-Eating Spider."

Wait, did I agree?

Okay, I agree.

Lu Geng nodded mechanically, his feet obediently walking forward to stand next to a severed Devouring Terror Spider. He looked at the high-voltage electric baton in his left hand and then at the hot-melt military knife in his right.

He decisively slung the stun gun back onto his back, grabbed the molten military knife, and plunged it into the anus... um... spurt hole of the Devouring Terror Spider's tail.

puff~

The sounds were disgusting, and the sensations were disgusting.

However, years of experience dissecting fog creatures allowed Lü Geng to skillfully extend his left hand to pry open the spray hole at the spider's tail, while his right hand wielded a knife to continue pushing it inside. When it reached a position of about 1 meter, he suddenly flicked the knife horizontally.

The foul-smelling, rancid protein sprayed outwards in a torrent.

Lu Geng extended his arm into the cross-section of the abdominal cavity, groping through the jelly-like solidified spider silk protein.

Suddenly, my palm hardened.

No, it should be that my palm touched something hard, and I instinctively squeezed it.

It is indeed very hard.

It should be correct.

Like a veterinarian delivering a baby, the Ranger mech even glanced at Lu Ze with a knowing look.

Lu Ze responded with an encouraging nod.

Lu Geng understood immediately, and with a sudden yank of his right hand, he pulled the hard object away.

Although the Ranger Mech was covered in wounds, it could not conceal the holy radiance emanating from it at this moment, like that of a saint.

As the juice spurted out, he pulled out his arm, raised it high, and in his outstretched palm was a "gray egg" the size of a fist.

Is this it?

Lu Ze stepped forward, examined the silk sac briefly, which had begun to dry and harden rapidly upon contact with the air, and nodded: "That's right, it's very well preserved."

Lu Geng inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a carbon fiber collection bag from his waist, unfolded it in the wind, threw the silk pouch into it, and then excitedly looked at the next spider corpse.

The feeling of collecting loot can be truly addictive, even if it's a bit disgusting.

Boom!

The ground suddenly trembled, and Lü Geng, who had just taken a step, stumbled. After regaining his balance, he looked back in surprise and doubt.

Lu Ze turned around with him.

Boom!

With another sound, a wave of dust surged out of the silent cave entrance, and faint cracks appeared on the cliff face.

Boom!

The cracks suddenly spread and broke apart.

With a loud bang, rubble mixed with spider silk shot out heavily.

"Be careful!"

Instinctively, Lü Geng took a step forward and stood in front of Lu Ze, spreading his arms wide and letting the shockwaves and debris fall on him.

In the thick fog, a row of giant, blood-red lanterns suddenly lit up.

This is--

Spider compound eyes!

His scalp pores were all bursting open, and Lu Geng could never forget the familiar red color, the familiar arrangement, and the familiar fishy smell.

The only difference is that the eyes that are now in front of me are at least five times larger than any I have seen before!

Each eye is nearly 3 meters wide in diameter.

The length of the four eyes lined up side by side already exceeds 12 meters!

Boom!

Boom!

Lu Geng heard what sounded like two pillars being driven into the earth, and as the earth trembled, the shadows in the mist slowly deepened and rose.

The red compound eyes are visible from 5 meters to 10 meters, 15 meters above the ground...

The fog finally dissipated, and Lü Geng looked up at the enormous creature, which was nearly five stories high and as wide as a basketball court. Between its massive fangs, barbs as thick as tree trunks crisscrossed, and disgusting green slime dripped onto the ground.

With a hiss, a huge, deep hole was instantly eroded into the rocky ground.

Lu Geng remained in the position with his arms outstretched, feeling that his legs had become completely numb.

This is a terrifying creature that is a whole size larger than the 7-star peak Ghost Eye Moth.

This is a terrifying creature that has never been revealed to the Battle Association before!

In its presence, Lü Geng's fighting spirit seemed to be doused with a bucket of ice water.

"What...is this...?" Lu Geng murmured, but a calm voice suddenly came from behind him.

Lu Ze looked up at the enormous creature, his gaze calm.

"The Devouring Terror Spider King, the conclusion is quite obvious."

In their line of sight, the Devouring Terror Spider King, as large as a small mountain, watched the two of them slowly climb backwards up the cliff.

The mist gradually concealed its form, until finally it disappeared along with the giant, scarlet spider eye.

With a muffled thud, it sounded like hailstones falling in the distance, followed by a rustling sound.

"The spiderlings are spinning silk." Lu Ze maintained his single expression, without even blinking.

Lu Geng took a deep breath, turned to look at Lu Ze, and prepared to speak.

"One-on-one, can you kill it?" Lu Ze asked softly.

Lu Geng was momentarily dazed, then lowered his head in deep shame, "No."

He was right when he said he could kill another one, but I didn't expect it to be a giant spider of this size!

"I'm sorry!" At this moment, Lü Geng felt extremely guilty and remorseful.

"Then why are you standing in front of me?"

Lü Geng was stunned.

"I, Lu Ze, have one rule."

Lu Ze rubbed his wrist, lifted his foot and took a step forward, his light voice reaching Lü Geng's ears at the same time.

"In everything you do, make sure you see it through to the end."

He walked with his hands behind his back to a spot ten meters in front of Lü Geng, then stopped and looked up.

"So, regarding the transaction just now..."

"Still valid."
