Volume 1 The Book of Origins Chapter 14 The Mutant Spider Strikes

Burying a monitoring device in his hand, Ye Ming turned on the power, and the device lit up with a green light and then went out again, which means that this equipment has been activated, in order not to be easily discovered by mutant creatures, so the light that shows the power supply will go out after it is turned on.

Ye Ming stood up from the ground, and then glanced at the time, it was already around six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was getting dark again.

"Camp early today, this is the central forest, and there are a lot of mutated creatures that are active at night, so let's find a suitable place to rest now. Jiang Li also noticed that it was getting dark, and he had to find a place to rest in the depths of the forest as soon as possible.

The team members spread out to observe their surroundings and look for a safer place.

After a while, Xia Xiaowei summoned everyone in the communicator and said that he had found a suitable place. Xia Xiaowei was looking for a giant tree, but near this giant tree, there were many war-destroyed machines under the tree, building ruins, and even the roots of the tree were rooted in a huge scrapped machine, so it could provide a good camouflage environment for war machines at night.

"Very well, then we'll rest here for the night. Jiang Li observed around the neighborhood and nodded, feeling that Xia Xiaowei had picked a good place. Xia Xiaowei covered his mouth with his hand next to him and chuckled, and he was very happy to be praised by Jiang Li.

As they had done the night before, the team placed alarms around the perimeter to check for danger. Tonight, Zheng Dong and Wang Kai are also in charge of the tree, taking turns to keep vigil. And on the tree, Li Yi and Jiang Li took turns to keep vigil, and Ye Ming and the two beauties just had a good rest.

After eating the food he had taken out of the war machine, the sky was completely dark, and he couldn't see his fingers. Two huge war machines crouched down and turned on their camouflage devices to disguise themselves as scrapped machines buried in the earth next to them.

On the tree, the first half of the night was Li Yi's vigil, and he, like Ye Ming, was reluctant to lie in a sleeping bag, sitting next to him and observing the surrounding situation.

And Ye Ming, Jiang Li, and the two ladies lay down in the sleeping bag early, and today they maintained a high degree of concentration in the forest during the day, and they also participated in many battles, and everyone was already exhausted and fell asleep quickly.

The silence of the night is terrible, and the forest is noisy during the day, but the night is so quiet that you can even hear the sound of breathing.

It's not that all the mutants in the forest fall asleep at night, but that the ones who appear in the forest at night are killers and assassins who walk in the dark.

These mutants disdain to engage in simple battles during the day that do not show their skills, and they need to use carefully crafted hunting nets to make their prey die in sweet sleep in the dark to show their noble grace.

They are the elves of the night, the kings of the kingdom of darkness. There's no place in the dark that they can't go, and there's no prey they can't kill.

They can wait patiently for days for a meal, or they can swallow the food alive to keep it from rotting and spoiling.

They don't need flashy fighting skills to adorn their power, they are assassins who walk on the tip of their knives, and they always kill with one hit, giving their prey the slightest time to react.

A black spider lies on top of a giant tree, and behind it is a huge web. There are several dead mutated finches on the spider web, and these mutant finches have no scars on their bodies, but they are wrapped around the spider webs without movement, and their whole bodies are black, which is a sign of severe poison in the body.

These finches, which were two or three meters in size after mutation, died at the hands of a spider more than one meter long under the spider's web.

The mutant spider is pitch black as ink, and its eight slender legs are covered with sticky hairs as thin as needles, allowing it to walk on any terrain. Its head has a double row of eight eyes, all of which are dark green. The mouth is a sharp claw, and the claws distributed up and down can not only easily bite food, but also secrete toxins, so that the prey can die quickly.

The mutant black spider doesn't want to eat the few mutant finches behind it because it has already found better food.

The black spider had already discovered Jiang Li's team, and it felt it when Jiang Li and Li Yi destroyed the cobwebs on the tree where they were resting.

The mutated black spider can sense the condition of each of its carefully woven cobwebs, so that it can understand the state of the food caught in the webs.

Therefore, Jiang Li and Li Yi attracted the attention of the mutant black spider when they destroyed the cobweb, and it was full of interest in these humans, these humans were much more delicious than the mutant finches behind them, and they were not easy to encounter.

The mutant black spider weaves a thin spider silk from the web above, and quickly lowers its body. It skillfully shuttles between the intricate branches of the tree, silently.

The mutant black spider soon came to a tree next to the giant tree where Ye Ming and they were. Some of the alarms you encounter on the road can't detect it at all.

The light and agile mutant black spider is too nimble, either avoiding the alarm device or not being able to trigger the alarm device at all.

The cold-blooded black spider made it impossible for the thermal devices to detect it, and it was too light for the other devices' sensing systems to trigger.

The black spider quickly climbed above the five people on the branch, silent, and observed these people with eight dark green eyes.

Li Yi took a sip of water, and then looked around at the alarm devices placed around. Seeing that the alarm device was still there, and it was not triggered at all, Li Yi also relaxed.

The black spider saw that the others were in the four sleeping bags, so they did something to the humans outside the sleeping bags first.

The black spider began to spit out spider silk and weave it over the crowd, intending to kill the man without noticing.

A large cobweb appeared above the team's heads, but the team was still asleep and didn't notice it.

The black spider slowly descended along the spider silk and approached Li Yi. Li Yi also didn't notice that a one-meter-sized spider had descended above his head.

Twenty centimeters... Ten centimeters... Five centimeters. The black spider opened its sharp claws, aimed at Li Yi's neck, and slowly fell.

Li Yi uses his ability to communicate with the plant mind every 20 minutes, and his energy can't support his ability to turn on all the time.

It was almost 20 minutes since the last time he used the ability, and Li Yi used the ability again to communicate with the surrounding plants.

"!!" Li Yi clearly felt that there was a guy more than a meter big hanging above him, but the plant couldn't tell back what it was, Li Yi could only feel that it was pitch black, obviously something more.

The instinctive reaction of a long-term battle, Li Yi stepped forward and rolled over, but his neck was still scratched by something sharp.

Li Yi looked back, and a mutated black spider was almost close to the position he had just had.

"There's a situation, hurry up. Li Yi put one hand around his neck and woke up the team members in the communicator.

A cobweb fell from the sky, enveloping Li Yi and the four sleeping bags.

Li Yi struggled hard, but he couldn't break free from the cobwebs wrapped around his body. His head was also starting to drowsy, as if he had just been poisoned by a mutant spider.

"Damn, how did it cross the alarm. Li Yi couldn't understand how this mutant spider got a little closer and didn't trigger the alarm.

Li Yi sounded the alarm in the communicator, and the other team members woke up immediately, and when they opened their eyes, they saw that the outside of the sleeping bag was wrapped in a large net.

"What's the situation, why wasn't the alarm triggered. Jiang Li opened the sleeping bag, looked at the cobwebs wrapped outside the sleeping bag, stretched out his hand to stretch the cobwebs, but did not touch the cobwebs, and Jiang Li did not know if the cobwebs had any effects such as paralysis.

The electricity shot down Jiang Li's space towards the cobweb, and a white light flashed, and the cobweb in front of Jiang Li was melted away.

Jiang Li quickly got up and freed Ye Ming and Ruoxue next to him. Xia Xiaowei himself used the Natal Immortal Sword to break through the cobwebs that were entwined outside.

Seeing that a few humans who were entangled in cobwebs could come out so easily, the mutant black spider immediately let out a strange cry, but the sound was not loud.

The spider used its tail to shoot dense spider silk at the drowsy Li Yi to wrap around him, and then quickly rose along the previous spider silk.

"It's not good, Li Yi has been caught, rescue him quickly. Jiang Li's glasses saw a black figure rising into the air quickly, with Li Yi still hanging from his tail.

In such a dark night, it is not suitable for Jiang Li's ability to use thunder and lightning, the light of thunder and lightning is too conspicuous, it is easy to cause other mutated creatures, and the team members can't shoot yet, and the gunfire will move even if it is silenced.

Xia Xiaowei held the natal fairy sword and chased after it with a hook lock, and Jiang Li and the three followed.

"Captain, do you need help?" Zheng Dong and Wang Kai from the war machine under the tree also woke up.

"No, just keep an eye on your surroundings, the trees aren't for you to fight. Jiang Li asked the two to stay on the ground and be on guard.

"No, this mutated black spider is too fast. Xia Xiaowei couldn't catch up with the black spider dragging Li Yi even if he used the hook lock, so he could only watch the spider disappear into the night after a few clicks.

"Then what to do, Li Yi is still in its hands, it will eat Li Yi's. Ruoxue hurriedly asked the captain next to her, Jiang Li.

"Don't worry, Li Yi has a positioning device on him, we can lock his location, and when the mutant spider brings him back to the spider hole, we can find him. Let's follow first, don't be left too far behind, move lightly, don't make too much noise. Jiang Li asked the team members to relax, and then made a command.

Ye Ming and the others also understood that it was useless to be anxious, so they followed behind according to their positioning that had been moving.

But before he could move around the forest for a while, Jiang Li hurriedly stopped the team. Hear the cries of mutants coming from close by, apparently affecting them as they move through the forest.

"We can't chase it for the time being, and the mutated creatures nearby seem to be aware of us. "Jiang Li definitely can't put the entire team in danger in order to save Li Yizhi.

"Then what should I do? If you don't save Li Yi, he will be in danger. Ye Ming stood on a tree branch, observing if there were any other mutated creatures nearby.

"I can only wait for the day, and now it's the second half of the night, I hope Li Yi can hold on until dawn. Jiang Li glanced at the time, and then called Li Yi in the communicator: "Li Yi, can you receive it?

"I... I'm supposed to be poisoned, and my head is very... Dusk. Li Yi spoke intermittently, obviously the spider's poison made him almost unconscious.

"You try to stay awake, our side has been discovered by mutated creatures, and we won't be able to save you until dawn. As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, Ye Ming next to him told Li Yi excitedly in the communicator: "Li Yi, bleed, you let yourself bleed, the combat suit can stimulate your brain to keep you awake, and it can also slowly clean up the toxins along the wound." ”

Ye Ming's words made the eyes of the team members light up, it was really a good idea, the combat uniform of Tongtian Jianmu can clean the wound and purify the toxins when the person wearing it is injured, and it can also stimulate the human brain, so that the wounded will not fall into a coma due to blood loss.

"Li Yi, do what Ye Ming said, as long as you can last until dawn, we will save you. Jiang Li hurriedly reminded Li Yi.

"Hmm. Li Yi replied simply, and he didn't know if he could hold out until dawn.

The team members returned to the fighting machine, quietly waiting for dawn, and kept paying attention to Li Yi's coordinates. But fortunately, Li Yi's coordinates have stopped moving in one place, indicating that the spider has taken him to the spider's den.
