Chapter 9: Promotion to the First Rank
With this drag, Chu Wen stood unsteadily, fell to the ground, and saw his head getting closer and closer to the hideous mouthparts behind the spider, he was anxious, but he had nothing to do for a while, so he could only hold the long knife tightly and make a last fight.
Closer, closer!
Seeing that the prey still had the strength to resist, the spider queen lifted its uninjured forelimb and pierced it towards Chu Wen like a javelin, while opening its mouth, revealing its hideous mouthparts, and biting his head!
Chu Wen gritted his teeth fiercely: "Fight!"
He didn't dodge the forelimb that stabbed in the air, but aimed at the mouth of the spider and stabbed the long knife in his hand with force!
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
The sound of two sharp blades entering the body sounded almost in no particular order, but the result was that Chu Wen won, his left shoulder was pierced by the forelimbs of the spider, and the head of the spider was also pierced by his long knife!
Lying on the spot for a long time, Chu Wen relieved himself, he struggled to pull out the spider leg inserted in his shoulder little by little, the long hair like steel wire on the spider leg cut through his wound little by little, this process hurt him for a long time grinning, he has suffered a lot since he was a child, but it is the first time he has suffered so badly. Sit up and bandage it briefly to stop the bleeding, and clean up the spider silk on your body. That's when he stood up.
Chu Wen circled around the corpse behind the spider, and finally found a joint junction behind its head, dug it open with a knife, forced the pungent fishy smell, rummaged through, and finally dug out a round ball the size of a black and brown finger.
"Is it really the first order?" Chu Wen was slightly surprised, but it was still expected, in that memory inheritance, he knew that the cultivation level was divided into two realms, innate and acquired, and each great realm was subdivided into nine orders, as long as the beasts that reached the first order of the day after tomorrow could be called demon beasts, they would generate demon cores in their bodies, and the demon cores stored a large amount of spiritual energy, which could be used to assist in cultivation, the reason why he wanted to take the initiative to fight monsters, obtaining the demon core was one of his purposes.
In the case of the ghost-faced spider queen without any abnormal changes, the strength of the first three orders can be judged by the body type, the size of this ghost-faced spider spider is already so big, so it is normal to have a demon core, but the spider queen is too bloated and not good at fighting, otherwise it will be difficult for Chu Wen to kill it.
The gunfire on the other side of the highway had not stopped, and the flamethrower was faintly visible, remembering Lei Tiansheng's safety, Chu Wen was about to leave, but inadvertently found that in the cave that had just collapsed, a place with a thin layer of soil was oozing a little hazy fluorescence.
Chu Wen's heart suddenly beat faster, "Could it be that there is some treasure?"
He stepped forward quickly, and after a few clicks of the soil, he saw a prismatic white crystal the size of a peach pit emitting a soft light.
"Spirit Crystal!" Although it was the first time he saw it, Chu Wen still instantly recognized the crystal in front of him, the spirit crystal is a relatively common heaven and earth strange thing, it is said to be condensed by the aura of heaven and earth, generally speaking, it is divided into upper, middle and lower grades, although the white spirit crystal in front of him is only a lower grade, but its aura reserves and purity are incomparable to the demon core, the aura stock of this low-grade spirit crystal can actually be compared to the aura reserves of the third-order demon core of the day after tomorrow! And because of the purity of energy, the efficiency and speed of the cultivator's absorption and transformation will be higher.
Chu Wen didn't expect such an unexpected gain, he immediately realized why the spider queen would set up its nest here, and if it was given a little more time, it would definitely be able to break through to a higher strength with the help of spirit crystals.
He dug deep into the soil with a knife and found four more spirit crystals, because he was afraid that Lei Tiansheng would not be able to hold it after a long delay, Chu Wen did not continue to look for it, but put away the spirit crystals and returned quickly.
Along the way, Chu Wen encountered several ghost-faced spiders scurrying around, all of which he easily killed, seeing these ghost-faced spiders without reason, Chu Wen reacted, the spider queen died, and the ghost-faced spiders had no unified organization, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Sure enough, when they got to the highway, there weren't many ghost-faced spiders left, and most of the rest were running around.
Seeing Chu Wen returning, Lei Tiansheng looked at him and asked, "Are you injured, is it serious?"
Chu Wen nodded: "Fortunately, I didn't hurt the key position, and the spider queen has been killed by me." ”
"Haha, I saw that the movement in the forest stopped, and I thought that your kid was eaten by a spider!" Lei Tiansheng laughed, just laughed a few times, and two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks, "Brother Liu, Xiaolin, we have avenged you!"
A few minutes later, the gunfire stopped, and the ground was covered with spider corpses, as well as two corpses in military uniforms that had been killed in the battle.
One or twenty soldiers looked at the two corpses in silence and took off their military caps.
Chu Wen was also infected by the sad scene in front of him, his mood was a little complicated, he looked at these soldiers around him by the light of the fire, some of them were in their thirties, but most of them were still very young, only in their early twenties, the soldier who shot first in the woods before was the youngest, looking at his somewhat immature face, he should not be more than twenty years old......
On the way back, the entire convoy was shrouded in a heavy atmosphere, and halfway through, Lei Tiansheng slowly spoke: "When I came, the five military vehicles were full, and everyone was full of confidence, but when I came back, each car had an empty seat......
Chu Wen opened his mouth. But I didn't know how to comfort him for a while, and after a while, I said: "You have done your best, don't blame yourself......"
"I'm not a qualified company commander, the first platoon has already sacrificed more than half of it, and the second platoon has also suffered heavy casualties this time, alas, I really don't know where these damn monsters came from! Is it really the end of the world?"
Chu Wen was silent for a while, then made a decision, and he spoke: "I actually know a little about these monsters and strange phenomena that suddenly appeared......"
"Really?!No wonder, I don't feel like you are an ordinary person!Tell me, what's going on?" Lei Tiansheng said in surprise.
Feeling that Lei Tiansheng's curiosity was mixed with some admiration, Chu Wen smiled helplessly: "I'm not a martial arts master, I just learned some news by chance." ”
"Oh?" Lei Tiansheng raised his eyebrows, looking half-convinced.
"It is said that the earth is undergoing a miraculous change, and some people call this phenomenon star nirvana, and the star nirvana process will occur in the fusion of the earth's subspace and the main space......"
Along the way, Chu Wen picked out some of the more important and currently useful information he knew to Lei Tiansheng, and in this process, Lei Tiansheng and the soldiers driving in the front row kept a stunned expression.
Returning to the sentry post, Lei Tiansheng got out of the car mechanically, and after a while he digested the information that he couldn't believe, he pulled Chu Wen and asked, "So, do you have information about those monsters, including their general habits and weaknesses?"
Chu Wen had expected Lei Tiansheng to ask this, he nodded and said, "Yes, but it is impossible to have every monster, I will sort out a piece of information for you in the next two days!"
After sending Lei Tiansheng away and carefully treating the wound, Chu Wen couldn't wait to return to the room he had booked in the hotel, took out the spirit crystal, played with it, sat up, ran the spirit trick in "Hao Tian Decision", and began to absorb the spiritual energy in the spirit crystal.
There seemed to be a trace of cool gas in the warmth that continued to pull out of the spirit crystal, entering Chu Wen's meridians, and his body slowly became stronger, and the wound on his left shoulder was not so painful, but there was a tingling and itching feeling.
Chu Wen was immersed in this comfortable feeling, running the magic over and over again, until at a certain moment, a feeling of breaking a certain shackle suddenly appeared, and his body relaxed for a while, and then, the aura in his body instantly skyrocketed, and his meridians were all faintly painful, but as the aura was washed over and over again, this pain slowly disappeared, and his body became stronger rapidly in the process.
After a while, Chu Wen opened his eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he knew that he had finally stepped into the first step of the day after tomorrow, and looked at the spirit crystal in his hand, and the luster dimmed a lot.
He got up again, moved around the room, and got used to the sudden increase in his body, and then took a shower to his heart's content.
Lying on the bed after taking a shower, Chu Wen thought back to everything that happened tonight, he didn't plan to tell others these secrets he knew, even if he could say it, it wasn't now, everyone would be selfish, they all wanted to have more advantages than others, stronger than others, and Chu Wen was the same.
But tonight, seeing those soldiers sacrificed with his own eyes, he couldn't be indifferent, sharing this information with the military was his decision after careful consideration, as for the danger it would bring to himself? Chu Wen also thought about it, but he chose to believe in Lei Tiansheng once, and believe in the military once.
