Chapter 55: Spider-Man
The fluorescence pierced through the darkness, leaving dark red spots in the air, and the huge body was shrouded in shadows, and its species could only be seen from its ugly silhouette and eight curved arthropods, the spider.
“......”
Instinctively, Derek sensed danger and pricked up his ears to listen to the movement around him.
A long, curved black arthropod slowly protruded from behind the rock, a crumpled hard shell with a metallic sheen, and clumps of thick black hairs growing on the surface, more than nine feet long.
The cobwebs lay on the ground, allowing it to crawl silently and quickly, revealing its ugly head connected to its ribcage, and its pincer-like forefeet rubbing rapidly in the air, apparently feeling the taste of a big meal.
“......”
Old Hank clenched the dagger in his hand, and little by little he approached his cheap son, and when he saw the giant spider's forefoot move, he immediately swung a sword wind, and at the same time dodged forward, galloping quickly on the ground paved with spider silk.
Bell--!
The giant spider's head burst into a cloud of sparks, and immediately stretched out its long knobs, moving quickly on the elastic ground, and ran over the old grave robber like a steamroller.
After narrowly escaping, Derek crawled to the inner wall of the cave, pressed his body against the wall, and looked around for a weapon at hand.
Old Hank was very agile at this time, and when he saw the spider rushing towards him, he suddenly leaned forward and escaped through the gap between the spider's feet.
Boom!
The giant spider suddenly stopped rushing forward, and the eight arthropods were a little on the ground. The bulky body actually bounced above the cave and bounced quickly on the steep rocks, and the agility was incredible.
"Let's go!"
The old grave robber ran to the cheap son. Pulling his arm, he was about to rush out of the cave when the giant spider's belly lifted from behind, and a bundle of silver filaments flew out of the spinner and shot at Derek's back.
The young man felt a smack in the back, and then a powerful pull came from behind him, dragging his entire body into the air and flying towards the giant spider in the distance.
The monster grabs its prey with two pairs of forelimbs. Spit out the spider silk and turn it quickly and incoherently until Derek is completely encased in the silk. It's like a shiny silkworm cocoon.
"Son!
Old Hank quickly stopped, held the dagger in both hands and aimed it at the giant spider, and after a moment of stalemate, the monster raised its forefeet like a toothed scythe. The ripping airstream swooped down.
Kata-!
The old grave robber struggled to hold on to its forefeet. The legs kept gripping the ground, but the body was pushed by the other party and slid backwards.
Whether it was size or strength, he fell behind, the spider's pincer-like arthropods slowly approached, Old Hank was unstable under his exhaustion, staggered and slid back dozens of yards in a row, and a pair of cowhide mountain boots under his feet quickly rubbed and smoked.
The giant spider lifted upwards from its belly in mid-air, wriggling at its ugly end. A shiny black needle protrudes from inside, then grows longer and longer. Suddenly, it flew up and swept towards the prey in front of him like a long whip.
Whew!
Old Hank, whose whole body was fighting against the spider's thrust, was powerless to dodge, so he could only watch a needle-like object pierce his shoulder, and the needle prick suddenly hurt and itched, and he soon became unconscious.
"Ahhh
The old tomb robber screamed, and finally lost the strength to resist, and his whole body was thrown high by the giant spider and smashed heavily on the stone wall.
Before the prey could land, a shiny silver silk enveloped him, wrapped in a thick cocoon, and hung on a web in the innermost part of the cave.
......
Round stone wall...... The High Plateau of Terror...... Spooky rituals......
Old Hank felt as if he was floating in the clouds, countless intertwined thick pipes extending infinitely as he moved forward, and flowing images flashed in front of him from time to time.
For some reason, looking at those fast-passing pictures, the old tomb robber subconsciously had a familiar feeling, obviously he had never seen it, but it seemed as if he had experienced it himself.
I don't know how long it took, but old Hank woke up slowly, and when he opened his eyes, he suddenly felt dizzy. Finding yourself hanging over a net with a dozen yards of space under your feet, the feeling of falling at any moment was enough to make any brave man tremble.
The light in the depths of the cave was weak, but the old tomb robber could see everything, and there was a sharp stone standing on the ground, and the broken stone patterns were clearly visible. The bones of all kinds of animals are scattered around, from small chickens, ducks, and dogs, to large horses, cows, deer, and even people, all spread equally on the ground.
"Derek, are you there?"
Old Hank softly called for his cheap son, although this son was stupid, stupid and timid, but he was also a son anyway, and he was more filial, and he did not abandon him at a critical time.
"I'm ...... I think we're dead. The young man's frustrated voice came from beside him.
He turned his head to follow the sound and saw that Derek was hanging beside him with his head drooping, and he didn't look hurt except for a gloomy expression.
"It doesn't seem to mean to hurt us for the time being. The old grave robber was relieved to see that he and his cheap son were still alive.
"I think it's treating us as reserve food, and we won't be hungry at this time, so we won't eat, and after a while, it won't be necessary. "The young man was hung for a long time, and he had nothing to do for a long time, and finally figured out the reason why he died.
"If you are alive, you have a chance, let me tell you, when I robbed the tomb, it was much more unlucky than now, and in the end, it was not a reversal. Therefore, you must be positive, even if you are doing illegal things, you must also have a sunny attitude...... Oops!"
Old Hank babbled and said, ready to instill a little life experience in him, when suddenly there was a cramp in his chest, and the body wrapped in spider silk spasmed, and he swallowed the words in pain.
"Are you alright?"
Although Derek couldn't see, he could hear the pain of the cheap daddy in his voice.
"I think I'm poisoned. ”
Only then did the old grave robber remember that he had been pricked with a poisonous needle by a spider earlier. The body wrapped in cobwebs did not feel the slightest sensation, which was a clear sign that the toxin had spread throughout the body.
Speaking of which, I was really unlucky, forming a gang and pulling two unreliable accomplices. robbed the tomb and encountered evil spirits, took refuge and encountered monsters, recognized a cheap son and cheated his father, and was sent to the black-faced spider forest without a head.
At this time, he was parasitized again, and he was highly poisoned, and he was dying, and the cheap son he just recognized had to accompany him.
It is equivalent to the scene of his own legs and the white-haired man sending the black-haired man at the same time. I have suffered for most of my life, scavenging and eating from the coffins of the dead, but the money I earned has not been spent. If you die, you won't even have an heir. Watching the spider eat that virtue, it is estimated that there will be no whole corpse......
Miserable!
Thinking about it, old Hank came from the bottom of his heart, and he wanted to write seven misery on the ground with tears in his eyes. The body is unconscious. I suddenly felt even more miserable.
"Ahhhh
When Derek saw him crying sadly, his nose suddenly became sore, and he felt deeply, why was he so miserable, the first time he went out to do something bad, but he took his life.
"I'm so miserable too!" the young man cried.
Wrapped in a cocoon and hung on the cobweb, the old and the young couldn't help themselves, crying sadly one after another as if singing a high note, and the cobwebs were rippling.
The giant spiders curled up on the ground ignored them as well. Isn't it just crying when it's dying, and it's seen a lot. Too lazy to care.
Crying and crying, old Hank suddenly felt that his chest was getting tighter and tighter, his throat was itching uncomfortably, and when he opened his mouth to vomit, a brown sticky mass was directly spit out by him.
"Huh?"
After the old tomb robber spit out this sticky substance, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed in his chest, not only did he feel a lot more energetic in his chest, but even the feeling of paralysis in his whole body was gradually disappearing.
"Dad, why did you cry and vomit?" the young man asked with tears in his eyes.
"I don't know...... But I'm feeling a lot better now. ”
Old Hank glanced at his vomit, and his scalp tingled, and the sticky mass was actually a parasite that wriggled with each other.
"Sometimes crying can really relieve stress. Derek, who didn't know the inside story, stupidly echoed a sentence.
"I feel like I'm saved. ”
Old Hank tried to move his limbs to regain consciousness, and felt indescribably energetic.
At this moment, the body of the tomb robber, the poison of the spider poisoning the prey, is flowing all over the body, and the parasites that change the structure of his body are frantically strengthening the host's host energy while struggling to fight. In the end, even at the expense of the same kind of active absorption of toxins, they still spasm and constantly lose vitality.
In desperation, the parasite could only obey the instinct to survive, rushing to the throat, and then, once again, it was expelled by the owner of the body.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
With this vomit, the old tomb robber felt a little more energetic and physically strong, stretched his limbs, and gradually doubled the size of the spider silk cocoon.
"Why are you throwing up again?" Derek felt that something was wrong this time, could it be that his cheap dad was poisoned and was going to die.
"The more I vomit, the better my state is, don't lie to you. ”
Old Hank gave the other party an intuitive answer, and then there was a tingling in his chest, as if thousands of ants were biting, and this feeling quickly spread to his throat, and when he opened his mouth, there was a burst of wild vomiting.
Large clumps of parasites poured out of his mouth like boiled noodles, spilling on the ground below, bounced spasmodically a few times, and gradually stopped moving.
This time, the old tomb robber expelled all the parasites from his body, as well as most of the toxins.
And thanks to the transformation of the parasite's dying struggle, his current body has far surpassed ordinary people, not only recovering from vitality to the most energetic period, reaching the level of a third-order warrior in strength, but also mixed with a little benign sequelae with spider characteristics.
This amplitude of enhancement is far beyond the comparison of the previous monster Jeffrey, and it can be said that it is the pinnacle of the parasites sacrificing themselves to become the host.
"Hey, hey, are you alright?"
The young man was really panicked this time, although it was just a helpless move to admit his father before, but now he didn't want this cheap father who took care of himself to die here.
"I'm fine!"
The old tomb robber's voice was full of anger, the muscles of his whole body swelled, his bones made a violent sound, and he roared with explosive power:
"I feel like I'm full of power right now!"
With the shock of the sound waves, the spider silk that bound his body broke inch by inch like a ruined leather, and it shattered and exploded with a "snap", and the snow-like spider silk suddenly floated in the air.
The giant spider lying on the ground suddenly raised its head, moved its feet, and slowly retreated. It retreated to the bottom of the cavern, its two forelegs waving and striking in the air, apparently feeling some kind of threat.
The giant black-faced spider was also very puzzled at this time, how could the prey that was crying and dying just now suddenly become powerful, and there was a faint breath of the same kind on its body.
Old Hank, who had regained his freedom, landed easily, and in a strange posture, his limbs were wide open on the ground, slowly approaching the monster in the distance.
He had a vague feeling that he was better than the other party now, and the performance of the giant spider just now seemed to prove this.
After a moment of confrontation, the old grave robber obeyed his instincts, raised his hands and rushed over, squeaking like a broken cobweb on the ground with the heavy stamping of his legs.
The giant spider had no way to retreat, so it could only swing its forelimbs and fight to the death.
Smack!
Old Hank grabbed the giant spider's forelimbs, his arms increasing with increasing force, breaking the steel-solid pincers in two.
The wounded monster shoots a silver-white spider silk and hooks its hind limbs to the rough rock, crawling in the air on the vertical rock wall, quickly fading.
The old grave robber instinctively raised his right hand and aimed it at the top of the cave, and with a "snort", a white silk thread flew out of his wrist and stuck to the back of the giant spider.
"Get me down!"
Old Hank grabbed the spider silk he shot out, and squatted down heavily, and the four pairs of arthropods of the giant spider suddenly left a series of whitish marks on the top of the cave, and then they were loosened and dragged to the ground.
Boom -
The giant spider smashed into the ground like a meteor, and after bouncing for a moment, it was about to continue struggling, when silver silk shot from a distance, wrapped its eight long legs one by one, and wrapped it into a large cocoon.
"Hahaha, let you taste the taste of being wrapped up too. ”
The old tomb robber laughed arrogantly, slowly circling around the body of the giant spider, admiring the other party's current tragic situation.
"Can anyone tell me what's going on? Dad, where are you?"
Derek looked around in confusion, although he couldn't see things, he could hear the fierce fight just now, as if his cheap dad had won the battle.
"I'm right down to you, and I've cleaned up that big spider. As old Hank spoke, he found the dagger he had dropped earlier, straightened up, and threw it at the spider silk where his cheap son was dangling.
Whoosh!
The bright cold light cut off half of the spider silk, and the young man only had time to howl miserably, and then fell to the ground along the elongated spider silk, and the spider silk "snapped" and broke when it landed.
