Chapter Eighty-Seven: Cancer Spider
After pondering for a long time, thinking of the powerful black pulp melon, Yang Ling still decided to take a gamble, gritted his teeth and commanded the army to slowly walk towards the Teutonic Valley. With the ogre army in front and the gargoyles broken, the horned bees hovered low and provided low-altitude cover for the army, while the rest of the centaurs formed a tight circular defensive formation. Step by step, cautiously move forward. The entrance to the valley is wide, but it is full of rocks of different shapes, and the steep cliffs on both sides look particularly oppressive and urgent. Compared to the outside, the valley was darker and colder, not to mention the elven archers with relatively weak physiques, even Yang Ling shivered from time to time. If it is cold outside the valley, it is cold inside the valley. The cold air penetrated the thick cotton clothes like a poisonous snake, penetrating through every pore on the body, and it was cold to the bones. His limbs were numb for a while, his scalp was painful, not to mention the blood, and it seemed that even his soul was going to freeze into a ball. Before they had taken a few steps, a strange sound came from the depths of the valley. Like a gust of wind, like some wild beast roaring, like a cold wind across the hearts of all. "My lord, why don't you go back and gather all the warriors and come in together?" Agusu looked at Yang Ling with a solemn face nervously, holding the long sword in his hand tightly, extremely nervous. I think of the many ethereal legends I heard when I was a child, and from time to time I look left and right in horror, suspicious. "Yes, yes, my lord, let's go out first!" the goblin elder echoed Agusu's opinion loudly, for some reason, he always had a very bad premonition, as if the dark sky would fall at any moment. "A lot of people doesn't necessarily mean a good thing!" Yang Ling pondered for a moment, then said, "With our strength, even if we encounter a late eighth-order demonic beast, or even a ninth-order demonic beast, it is not without a fight. Even if you can't defeat it, at least you can get out of it, and there's nothing to be afraid of. But remember, remember to leave the big formation without permission, and never act recklessly!" Although the valley was even more gloomy than expected, it was safe when it came, and Yang Ling was unwilling to give up halfway. He had a hunch that as long as he persevered, in addition to getting a large sulfur mine, he would also find a lot of rare treasures. According to the scout's report, the mountains outside the Teutonic Valley were undulating, and there was no end in sight after running fast horses for more than an hour, and no one knew how long this strange valley was. Under Yang Ling's appeasement, everyone cheered up and walked down. Along the way, they encountered mutilated bones from time to time, some with short hands and legs, and some even with only one head left. In the dim light, the scattered bones emitted a little phosphorescence, which looked particularly eerie. As they moved slowly, they carefully surveyed the surrounding terrain and sent out a large number of scouts and horned bees to scout their way to avoid a surprise attack from the enemy. On the way, if you encounter anything valuable, you put it away. After walking for more than half an hour, the smell of sulfur in the air became heavier and heavier, and it was estimated that there was not much distance from the sulfur mine. I didn't encounter any monsters along the way, but I picked up a lot of things near the many corpses. There are sharp swords, heavy armor, heavy crystals, and in addition, there are many magic staff and strange things. Holding a black staff sent back by an ogre, Yang Ling was silent on the surface, but in his heart there were shocking waves. From this black staff, he felt a huge amount of magic power, and looking at the mottled patterns on the staff, he finally believed what the fox clan elder said. The warriors who died in the Teutonic Valley, in addition to ordinary swordsmen and magicians, there were also many great swordsmen or great magicians. When a scout returned a spatial ring, Yang Ling was excited and felt an unprecedented danger at the same time. Space rings are very rare in the mainland, and usually, people who wear space rings are either rich or expensive. Under normal circumstances, only a mage of magistude is capable of wearing and preserving a spatial ring. What kind of monster could make a strong person like a Magister or a Sword Saint bury here?The more he walked inside, the more treasures he picked up, the more nervous Yang Ling became. At the same time, he didn't know if it was an illusion or what, he felt that the feeling of being peeping was getting stronger and stronger, and he even faintly heard bursts of disdainful sneers. The tower-shaped mark at the center of the eyebrows became hotter and hotter, and it slowly beats. Just when Yang Ling was hesitating whether he should withdraw immediately, suddenly, the Tarantula King screamed frantically, commanding the spider army to be on full alert. "It's not good, hurry, shrink the formation, hurry!" Although he didn't know what danger the Tarantula King felt, Yang Ling still didn't dare to hesitate at all, and quickly contracted the formation. Centered on the evil eye, which is not good at defense, and the strong deadwood warriors and ogres are used as shields, a tight circular defensive array is formed. After receiving the order, the scouts rushed back to battle, and several of the farthest barbarians gritted their teeth and ran wildly, using all their strength to feed. However, just as they rushed to a short distance of twenty or so steps away from the main formation and breathed a sigh of relief, disaster suddenly happened! Sharp, conical spikes pierced into their chests, pierced their spines, and peeked out from behind. After succeeding, a large group of bathtub-sized octopus spiders emerged from the ground and split in two. A team fiercely slaughtered everyone, and as soon as the two slashing claws opened and closed, they spewed out streams of fishy venom from afar, far exceeding the spider army led by the Tarantula King. One team burrowed into the ground in batches, sending out sharp ground spikes. "Oh my God, Cancer Spider! Lord, retreat, retreat!" The goblin elder was shocked as he looked at the dense spiders rushing in front of him, and at the surging thorns of the tide. As for the clansmen behind him, they were even more trembling. Legend has it that the Cancer Spider is a social monster from the region. Not only is it powerful, with deadly venom and claws, but it can also dive underground and unleash terrifying ground thorns that make it impossible to escape. Cancer Spider? Looking at the Cancer Spider that seemed to be an evolved version of the red-haired tarantula, Yang Ling swallowed his saliva with difficulty. With sharp claws, overwhelming venom, huge numbers, and terrifying ground thorns, it's no wonder that the orcs have suffered heavy losses, and it's no wonder that the valley is full of corpses. "Retreat, the whole army retreats, quickly!" After the shock, Yang Ling reacted quickly, preparing to send a gargoyle to break off and command the army to retreat urgently. However, before the words fell, giant cancer spiders drilled out of the surroundings, and in the blink of an eye, they fell into a siege. In desperation, Yang Ling had no choice but to command the army to defend on the spot! After rushing forward furiously, before a few giant cancer spiders were killed, dozens of ogres fell under the double blow of the opponent's venom and ground thorns in the blink of an eye. Razor-sharp ground spikes pierced the plates of their feet, and the deadly venom corroded their muscles and bones, leaving only a pool of blood in the blink of an eye. Under the command of the Evil-Eye Tyrant, the Evil-Eye army emitted a dazzling glow. But disappointingly, I don't know if it's because the eye structure of the giant crab spider is different, or if they react too quickly and have no effect at all. In the face of the dense Cancer Spiders, in the face of their terrifying venom, the horned bee beast could not get close to the gargoyle at all, due to the lack of range, the spider army led by the Tarantula King was useless, and only the Evil Eye army fought back frantically under the command of the Evil Eye Tyrant, and withstood the tide of attacks from the other side. Under Yang Ling's command, the unicorn also sent out a series of serpentine lightning bolts, frantically attacking the incoming giant crab spider. Unfortunately, there are too many cancer spiders, densely packed, and there is no end in sight, and they can't be killed. As more and more Cancer spiders attacked, and as they approached step by step, the ogres and barbarians in the outer circle were attacked. Some of the sulfuric venom in their bodies could not be shaken off, and they were corroded into small holes in the blink of an eye, and some were held up high by sharp ground thorns, and their limbs twitched and covered in blood. Seeing that the venom like concentrated sulfuric acid was overwhelming, Yang Ling was so nervous that he was sweating profusely. If you were alone, you might be able to ride away on a fast-moving unicorn, and if you only had an army of monsters around, you could take them to the Witch Tower and flee for your life, but what about the remaining barbarians, elves, ogres, and goblins? Compared to the ground spines, the venom of the Cancer Spider is more terrifying, and it is simply pervasive. At the critical moment, it was not the artillery-like evil eye that rescued the army, nor the fighter-like horned bee beast, but the goblin who had been acting as a bait, a timid and humble goblin! Under the command of the goblin elder, several goblin mages quickly turned over the earth-based magic array, and joined forces to cast a large earth-based defensive cover, blocking the overwhelming venom of the giant cancer spider. After the overwhelming venom of the squeaky cancer spider sprayed onto the protective shield, it made a piercing sound, and thick white smoke came out, making people's scalps tingle. "My lord, the attack of the Cancer Spider is too dense, and the defensive shield can only last for half an hour at most, so you must find a way to rush out as soon as possible!" After taking a breath, the goblin elder reminded Yang Ling on the side in horror. He couldn't imagine what he would do to fend off the ferocious attack of the Cancer Spider after the time had passed, when the defensive shield had lost its effect. "Hmph, half an hour is enough, enough for all of them to come and go!" Looking at the Cancer Spider approaching step by step, Yang Ling gritted his teeth and gambled again, and after the dense Cancer Spider rushed over, he commanded the Evil Eye and the spider army to fight back frantically. Without the threat of Venom, the Evil Eye and the spider army attacked wildly, sweeping through the incoming enemies like wheat cuts. Kill the Cancer Spiders before they dive underground.
