Chapter 21: Energy Spider

  "Damn, what's going on?" Fat Dong couldn't help but punch the ground heavily. At this moment, three beams of light whizzed in. They 'shot' between Fat Dong and Fang Kai, isolating the two men. Fat Dong was startled, looked around, and found that the colorful beams had filled the entire space, intersecting to form a huge net.

  Upon seeing this, Fang Kai's face turned grave. He carefully observed the structure of the light pillar and exclaimed: "Fatty, Qiao Mings, be careful, this is a laser array!"

  "'Laser' array?!" — The same voice echoed in the hearts of Jorms and Fat Dong, who had already experienced the sharpness of the "laser" array during their mission on Mars.

  The "dead" laser beam is fine, but the "live" laser beam is terrifying. Once a person falls into the movable and changeable laser beam, they are not far from death. Usually in the initial stage, people will have a small space to move around, but as time goes on, the laser beam will become more dense, and eventually, people will be in close contact with the laser beam. These laser beams have a huge destructive power, capable of disintegrating a person's * in an instant.

  The most frightening thing is that through 'laser' resonance, it can disrupt brain waves, causing the invaders to gradually lose their sanity and eventually attack each other until... destruction.

  It can be imagined how difficult it was for Fang Kai and his two companions!

  If the three of them, Ke and Kai, still had experience to deal with, then what came next was beyond their expectations. As the large array gradually activated, the laser beams became more and more condensed, forming a sharp laser net. They intertwined into dots, forming knots of varying sizes.

  And on the largest of those "knots", the three people suddenly saw a red-glowing energy spider crawling out.

  "Oh, my god!" Jorms was stunned. The energy spider was vividly alive, its eight large feet standing steadily on the 'laser' beam. It defied the 'laser', like a monarch, looking down at the three tiny humans.

  The giant spider was agile in shape and very flexible in action. On the other side, Fang Kai and Pang Dong had not reacted yet, and the energy spider launched an attack on them.

  "Kai, get out of the way!" Fat Dong shouted loudly and hastily pulled out a pulse gun. Before he could finish speaking, the energy spider spat out a "purple light wave" that was less than three meters away from Fang Kai. "Die now." Without time to aim, Fat Dong swung his arm and fired a shot based on intuition.

  Silver-white cannonballs and purple-colored light waves collided, emitting a thunderous roar that shook the sky.

  The dazzling light obscured the view, and the shockwave from the explosion crashed against the wall. The originally flat stone wall was dented with deep scars one after another, countless broken stones fell to the ground, making a "crashing" sound.

  The result of the collision was so dismal, yet for some reason, the '激' light net was completely unscathed.

  "Kai zi, Kai zi, are you okay?!" Pang Dong coughed a few times and waved his hand to scatter the dust around. In the blur, he vaguely saw Fang Kai's fallen figure not far away.

  "Hmm." Fang Kai half-knelt, vigorously shaking his head. Just now, that one move almost injured him. "I, I'm fine, you quickly see if Jormungandr is okay." Fang Kai coughed once and just as he lifted his head, he saw the giant spider crawling in the opposite direction.

  Fat Dong responded with a sound, at this time the dust had dissipated, and he also saw Chomsky lying on the ground. The energy spider shook its head, left and right, unhurriedly walking towards Chomsky. "Pzzt pzzt", the big spider spat out 'shooting' lines of fire 'flowers', its constantly chewing mouth making one's heart tremble with fear.

  "Jomus!!" Fat Dong shouted loudly, but the figure didn't move. Fat Dong stomped his feet and took out a button-activated '激' light shovel. "You ugly monster, go to hell for grandpa!" He held the shovel vertically, and with a burst of strength, he flung it out.

  At the moment of 'violent' laser separation, Pang Dong activated the "Radiation Self-Destruction" program.

  In fact, the importance of Nuò Xuán's '激' light shovel to the four-person group is largely determined by its "radiation self-explosion" function. In addition to emitting a '激' light, this shovel can also self-destruct and release a powerful radiation that can change the state of objects, thereby creating opportunities for breakthroughs for one's own side.

  But once the "Radiation Blast" function is used, this laser shovel is completely scrapped.

  Fat Dong was also helpless, surrounded by 'laser' beams, still moving, he found it hard to break free!

  "Go die, haha!" Fat Dong stood with his hands on his hips, watching as the '激' light shovel inserted energy into the giant spider. Boom! --- In Fat Dong's mind, he shouted, and the high-speed rotating '激' light shovel suddenly exploded. Countless '激' lights pierced the giant spider's head, body, and limbs like sharp swords, instantly turning it into a porcupine.

  What's even more shocking is that in just one second, the enormous energy spider shrunk smaller and smaller until it was only about half the size of a human. However, the big spider merely shook itself, and the 'laser' beam shot from the shovel was instantly shattered.

  Seeing this, Fat Dong hummed and called out to Fang Kai: "Kaizi, you're relatively small in stature, I'll use the pulse cannon to cover you, go rescue Qiaomu." Before Fang Kai could respond, Fat Dong raised the pulse cannon and fired a shot at the miniaturized energy spider, followed by a burst of '激' light around Fang Kai.

  To the surprise of Pang Dong, although the energy spider had shrunk a lot, it seemed to be very powerful. The pulse cannon hit it and knocked it to the ground, but there was no further movement. Apparently, the big spider was not afraid of direct bombardment, what it feared most was probably radiation.

  However, the multi-dimensional bag was not on Pang Dong's body. For a moment, he couldn't take out more 'Ji' light shovels. So, he concentrated his attention and launched a fierce attack on the 'Ji' light net to clear the way for Fang Kai.

  "Kai zi, kuai!" Pang Dong shouted, Fang Kai nodded and kicked his legs, charging into the laser net. Even though Fang Kai's body was slender, dodging through so many "pillars of death" still made him break a sweat. Behind him, Pang Dong pursed his lips, observing Fang Kai's trajectory while adjusting the direction of the pulse cannon.

  "It's almost there, just a little bit more. Kai Zi, you must hold on, no matter what!" Pang Dong muttered to himself, his eyes fixed intently on the running figure. Neither he nor Fang Kai noticed that the energy spider that had fallen to the ground was undergoing a transformation.

  Just one more step would be enough to reach Chomsky - Fang Ke, who was fighting a guerrilla war with the 'laser' pillar, was extremely excited, but at this critical moment, he stopped abruptly.

  But then, on the colorful light pillar, suddenly formed a "seed", just half a second later, the "seed" rapidly enlarged, instantly becoming the size of a human head. Moreover, as the "seed" grew larger, it also squirmed. Then, in Fang Kai's astonished expression, energy spiders crawled out from the "seeds".

  Even Fang Kai's calmness couldn't hold back a curse at this moment

  。

  "What the f**k, what's going on?! What's happening?!" Fat Dong, who was watching from a distance, suddenly turned green with rage. He suddenly remembered the energy spider he had knocked down and quickly shifted his gaze there. As soon as he did, he was stunned.

  It turns out that energy spiders also have a means of reproduction, and this reproduction is actually carried by the '激' light pillar emitted by the gods! Energy spiders are born in the '激' light pillar, at which point they turn around and devour the '激' light pillar. Moreover, every time it devours a certain amount of '激' light, it shoots out something similar to a "seed" from its abdomen, which is transmitted to the '激' light pillar to grow.

  In this way, the "seed" of light hangs on the net, and the whole space is full of energy spiders!

  These spiders were densely packed, not very large in size, but they surrounded Fang Ke so tightly that he couldn't even get a drop of water through. Now it wasn't Fang Ke going to rescue Qiao Mu Si anymore, but rather Fang Ke needed to be rescued himself.

  Fortunately, these energy spiders seem to only target people who intrude into the 'laser' array and have not attacked Fat Dong and Joems who are still unconscious. On the other hand, Fang Kai is in a miserable state.

  Imagine thousands, even tens of thousands of spiders crawling towards you at once, how would you feel?

  "Brother, don't be afraid, I'm coming to save you." Fat Dong muttered to himself, grasping the pulse cannon and charging into the intense light array. As expected, as soon as he entered the array, half of the energy spiders suddenly turned around and crawled towards him like an army. Looking at this magnificent scene, Fat Dong couldn't help but shiver and swallow hard.

  He really didn't think that one day he would have such close contact with so many spiders.

  Fat Dong took a deep breath, his mind racing: "As the saying goes, 'catch the king first', since these spiders were all created by that mother body, I couldn't kill them all even if I wanted to. Why not just take out that mother body instead? That way, wouldn't I be helping Kayzi out of a tight spot? Haha, Zhao Dong Ah Zhao Dong, you're really too clever."

  With a thought, Fat Dong turned around and fixed his gaze on the spider's body. "Hmph!" He sneered coldly, then galloped through the '激' light net without stopping.

  The target deviated from the trajectory, and this half of the energy spiders suddenly collapsed, one by one following the footsteps of Pang Dong, scaring the latter to sweat profusely. After all, tens of thousands of spiders are not something to be trifled with, they can become your nightmare!
