Death Train: SSS-level talent right from the start!

Chapter 98 [Insect Nest] Elite Monster

A female team member standing to Tang Jingxin's right waved her hands continuously.

A series of cyan wind blades shot out from her palms, spinning rapidly in the air and emitting a sharp hissing sound.

The wind blades sliced ​​into the facehugger's body, slicing the grayish-white insect in half in mid-air, and splashing milky-white liquid in all directions.

The other two men in the team also drew their weapons, one with a knife and the other with a sword, and charged forward.

The two were responsible for intercepting the part of the facehuggers that were chasing Jiang Ning and then turned to attack the group.

But there were too many facehuggers.

Most of them were killed by Sean and his group of four, but three of them broke through the defenses of the two team members in front and rushed towards Tang Jingxin.

Three facehuggers darted through the gap between the two, their dark red bodies bouncing through the air, their chelicerae outstretched, their black claws aimed straight for Tang Jingxin's face.

Tang Jingxin flipped his hand, and a long spear appeared in his hand.

The gun is entirely black, about two meters long, and has a faint blue glow flowing around it.

Tang Jingxin gripped the gun in her right hand and thrust the tip of the gun three times in mid-air.

All three shots hit the facehuggers precisely, and the three facehuggers were strung together and hung on the spear like a string of candied hawthorns.

Tang Jingxin twisted her wrist, and the gun spun several times.

The three facehuggers hanging on the gun were torn apart by the gun's rotational force, their bodies shattered into pieces, and fragments flew in all directions.

He sheathed his spear, tip pointing downwards, and planted it on the ground.

The battle ended quickly; in less than ten minutes, over a hundred facehuggers had turned into points on their panel.

Jiang Ning walked back from the front of the passage.

A faint red aura still lingered around his body, and the roar of the Emperor Engine gradually subsided.

Not a single drop of liquid was on the jacket, only the hem was slightly disheveled.

With his agility when he activated his talent, these insects couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.

Tang Jingxin glanced at him sideways, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Not bad."

Jiang Ning looked at him without saying anything and walked back to Jian Lan's side.

"Keep moving forward. If you encounter any more cocoons, just go straight through."

Tang Jingxin withdrew her gaze and strode into the depths of the passage.

He had figured out that these cocoons were no different from those on the ground, and the facehuggers inside were pitifully weak.

It might be a threat to other teams, but for his team, it's not even a warm-up.

The group of seven continued on their way.

Their idea was the same as Chen Ye's; they were also looking for elite-level monsters.

……

Another location in the underground space.

Chen Ye's team arrived at a three-way intersection.

His gaze swept back and forth between the three passageways, his fingers unconsciously tapping lightly on his knees.

Which way?

Zhao Hai stood beside him and asked.

"They're all pretty much the same, let's just take the middle passage."

Chen Ye took the lead and walked towards the middle passage, followed closely by Zhao Hai, and then the others followed one after another.

Zhou Yating walked at the very back. She drew the short knife from her waist and made a cut on the stone wall of the central passage.

The inside of the passage was narrower than the outside, and the luminous plants on the cave walls were very sparse, with only a few scattered clusters, emitting light so weak that it was almost negligible.

Chen Ye took out a flashlight from his storage space, and the white beam shot forward, cutting a straight path of light in the darkness.

After walking for about ten minutes, the passage began to widen, and the glowing plants on the cave walls reappeared, filling the entire passage with blue-green fluorescent light.

Chen Ye stopped and raised his right hand to signal the group to stop.

Ahead lay a vast underground space.

Blue-green fluorescent plants covered the cave walls and ceiling, illuminating the entire space as bright as day.

Chen Ye took out a monocular telescope from his storage space, which he had redeemed for 5 points in the store.

He raised the binoculars, adjusted the focus, and aimed the lens at the center of the space.

Then his breathing paused slightly.

There lay a huge black spider.

Its size is outrageous; including the span of its legs, its width is estimated to be over five meters, and its entire body resembles a medium-sized truck lying on the ground.

Its body is covered with black carapace, the surface of which is covered with dark red lines that bulge like blood vessels and pulsate slightly with its breathing.

Eight legs are folded on either side of the body, and each leg ends in a sharp black claw.

Its head has a row of compound eyes, eight in total, arranged in two rows, all of which are closed at this moment.

Chen Ye put down his binoculars, turned his head to look at the group behind him, and lowered his voice: "It seems we've found an elite monster."

Qin Zhaoyang immediately leaned closer, and Chen Ye handed him the binoculars. Qin Zhaoyang picked them up and glanced at them, then gasped, "Good heavens, this spider is huge! It's definitely an elite monster!"

Zhao Hai took the binoculars, glanced at them, and then handed them back to Chen Ye: "How do we shoot?"

Chen Ye put the telescope into his storage space and scanned the layout of the underground space with his eyes.

The giant spider was crouching near the center left of the space, and the ground around it was covered with a thin layer of white silk, which seemed to be its activity area.

There is a large open area on the right, free of spider webs, making it a suitable direction for the main attack.

"Same as always. Hai Ge and I will draw its attention from the front, Wang Shuo and Li Zheng will flank it from the right, and the squad leader and Zhao Yang will provide ranged support."

Chen Ye quickly assigned tasks.

The six people confirmed their respective routes and locations.

Chen Ye walked out of the passageway, his steps light but his speed extremely fast.

His 14 points of agility greatly increased his movement speed.

Zhao Hai cut in from the other side, his fists now completely metallic, a silvery-gray sheen spreading from his fingertips to his entire forearm.

His steps were heavier than Chen Ye's, but he deliberately made them lighter, so that they made only a very faint sound when he stepped on the gravel.

Qin Zhaoyang and Zhou Yating took their positions at the entrance of the passage.

Qin Zhaoyang crouched behind a protruding rock, with the Swift Wind Crossbow mounted on it.

Zhou Yating stood next to him, a layer of ice-blue light shimmering on the tip of her right finger.

Wang Shuo and Li Zheng followed the cave wall to the right side of the space and crouched down behind a thick stone pillar.

When Chen Ye was about thirty meters away from the giant spider, all eight of the giant spider's compound eyes opened at the same time.

The pupils of those eight eyes were deep red, like eight glowing embers, standing out starkly against the blue-green fluorescent light.

Its head was slightly raised, and all eight legs were stretched out at the same time, supporting its massive body off the ground.

The deep red pupils swept across the space and quickly locked onto Chen Ye's direction.

Its abdomen bulged out, and at the end of the abdomen, a spinneret emerged from the gap in the carapace. It was silvery-white and its surface was covered with fine holes.

"spread!"

As soon as Chen Ye finished speaking, a huge white spider web shot out from the spinneret.

The net unfolded in the air, transforming from a tiny dot into a wall, moving at a speed that was almost impossible for the naked eye to follow.

It was over ten meters wide and almost completely covered the area in front of Chen Ye and Zhao Hai.

Chen Ye reacted the fastest. His 14 points of Agility came in handy at this moment.

The moment the spiderweb descended, his body was suddenly propelled to the right, rolling twice along the ground before barely making it out of the edge of the web's coverage.

The spider web brushed past his back, the nearest thread less than ten centimeters from his clothes.

Qin Zhaoyang reacted quickly; he crouched behind the rock, and the spider web just happened to brush past the area where he was.

He suddenly shrank behind the rock, his body pressed against the ground. Spider webs swept past him, and the wind they stirred up ruffled his hair.

But others were not so lucky.
