Knowing that there was actually a nest of a "Armored Spider" hidden near the route he had just traveled, Zuo Youxin was also taken aback.

It's not that Zuo Youxin, who is the general staff of the military department, is afraid of this, but fighting with "monsters" with an average height of at least one adult is a two-dimensional thing, and fighting with "bugs" of different sizes, who can be one or two adults in height, or "bugs" who are only four to five times larger than normal bugs.

The former, because of its unusually outstanding size and appearance, as long as it is within the line of sight, whether it is in a daze or fighting with other enemies, generally speaking, it can easily spot and pay attention to its movements.

The latter, when it comes to the "larvae" that have not really begun to grow, are about the size of the palm of the hand. In the dark environment, even if you are vigilant and walk carefully, you may not be able to guard against it, and suddenly you will be deceived by these "bugs" that are far smaller than ordinary enemies. As for whether there is the spare strength to guard against them in the heat of battle, it is needless to say.

The so-called "armored spider" is known for its defensive power, but as long as you remember where your weaknesses are, and you have a certain level of strength, it will hardly pose any threat. It is precisely because of this that in the 13th Division of the Military Department, there is an unwritten habit of "judging whether the member has left the rookie stage by whether he can kill the "Armored Spider" alone.

There is nothing wrong with such a view, but it ignores the poison of the "armored spider" in a place that is rarely paid attention to.

Newcomers will not easily challenge the "Armored Spider", even if they are really in danger, they are often pierced or torn by the opponent's sharp forelimbs before being bitten by the "Armored Spider". And those who can resist the "Armored Spider" will never be bitten by the chelica in front of the "Armored Spider" under normal circumstances.

As for the venom that is sprayed from a distance, because the speed of the spray is not particularly fast, and the ranged personnel with poor dodging ability will actively keep their distance from the "armored spider", the chances of actually being splashed on the body are pitiful. Moreover, the "Divine Cell" itself has a certain ability to resist poison, but it is only directly connected, injected and shot into the blood, flesh and internal organs of the body, and after being poisoned, it can generally persist until the end of the battle to inject the antidote. It is then transferred to the medical department under the Technology Development Agency.

An attack that misses is useless no matter how strong it is.

It can be lethal, but it is not lethal in real time, and as long as you follow the rules of the game, you can still survive by and large.

Based on the above factors, the "Armored Spider" is only classified as a B-Rank "Calamity", and it has not been taken very seriously by the members of the Thirteenth Division who have a little seniority.

But what if all of these premises were overturned?

Fortunately, young spiders are not as toxic as adult spiders. However, the amount of poison is so weak that it can be lethal when it accumulates.

Compared to the adult "armored spiders", the young spiders themselves are already more difficult to find, and even the most experienced members of the 13th Division cannot assert that they will not be bitten. In addition, one "armored spider" may not be strong, and ten "armored spiders" are a bit tricky to clean up. If 10 "Armored Spiders", plus 4 to 5 "Young Spiders", accidentally get bitten by "Young Spiders" while cleaning up the adult "Spiders", due to the influence of the toxin, the reaction ability begins to become sluggish, and then during that period, they are bitten by other "spiders", which will continue to increase the toxin like a snowball, even if it is a person at the level of a division commander, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be buried under this domino effect.

So, the trouble came.

The reproduction rate of the "Armored Spider" is terrifying, and everyone in the military department knows it.

The "Armored Spider's" nest is not far from the camp, whether it is from the perspective of sweeping the northern part of the island or from the safety of the island's non-combatants, Zuo Youxin has no reason to let it go.

However, a nest like this, where it is clear that there will be a succession of team members who are plotted by poisonous insects, is also extremely tricky to deal with.

Assault?

Detoxification is much more troublesome than injury. The latter only needs to apply medicine to the wound and wait for the "mythical cells" to heal on their own. In the former, although the Technology Development Bureau does not have a special antidote, the general-purpose antidote can only temporarily suppress the toxicity, and it will be ineffective under strenuous exercise, and the toxin can only be confirmed to be completely eliminated after treatment and detailed examination by the Technology Development Bureau's medical personnel.

The number of personnel in the second division is not large, and every time a member is poisoned, he has to assign manpower to escort him back to the camp, if the poisoning is too deep, to the level that Ji Yuehua can't solve, depending on the situation, he may even have to be sent back to the military camp on the west coast, and Bayi Yonglin will personally diagnose and treat it, which is no longer described as "trouble".

Blow up the entire cliff and bury the "spiders" and "young spiders" in the cave?

First of all, the Second Division did not have the powerful firepower to do this in an instant, and since the discovery that gunpowder-type thermal weapons had little effect on the "Calamity", the military headquarters stopped the research and development of thermal weapon technology, and now it is generally only used by police agencies.

Secondly, if the cliff was flattened, it would be impossible to explore that area, which meant that they would not be able to confirm that they had wiped out all the "spiders" and "spider eggs". The Armored Spiders are so fertile that even if only one of them "survives", they may be able to re-establish a large population. After all, this island will be occupied by the military headquarters in the future, on the other hand, it is impossible for the troops of the 13th Division of the military headquarters to stay here for a long time, and before the 13th Division retreats back to the mainland, this place must be largely swept away, this is the consensus of Zuo Youxin, as the commander of the island, and all the other division commanders.

The best way to think of is to plug the hole that can be seen in the cliff, leaving only one hole, and then send someone to go in and break all the "spiders" and "spider eggs" inside, so that the white knife goes in and the red knife comes out, so as to ensure that these potential threats are killed to the greatest extent possible - "armored spiders" do not know how to dig holes.

However, if you want to take this option

The matter of blocking the entrance of the cave can also be handed over to Ji Yuehua to deal with. However, in the end, it is necessary to send men to attack from the front.
