50. Putrid bugs and flies
The stone walls were pierced by pillars of flame, and rubble and smoke were scattered.
Ensign Gretel's voice came from the sound of falling rocks:
"This crypt spider is cunning! Every time I just came close to hitting it! … Which team just blew the brass whistle? Are you still alive? ”
"We're alive .. Ahem, ahem..."Sergeant Mars waved his hand away from the smoke and dust in front of him, and said as he coughed:
"Sir, Team Mars reports to you! Thank you for coming to support us!
When Ensign Gretel heard the name of the team, his tone became more solemn, and he shouted towards the dark area separated by a wall:
"Be careful! Mars! The crypt spider was made by an assassin of the Death Society. Its target is you and Sinner 888! It's coming for our plans! Don't let it get its way! … You didn't tell it anything, did you? ”
"No, sir!"
Sergeant Mars glanced in the direction of Lino, but found nothing because the darkness obscured the other party's figure:
"Neither I nor Sin 888 betrayed the Empire. That crypt spider doesn't know anything! ”
"That's good.. Stay where you are, and I'll go at once. From now on, you will act with me and do not take your sight out of me. ”
Ensign Gretel banged on the stone wall, trying to make the hole in the wall bigger so that his giant body could get through.
Sergeant Mars turned his head in the direction of Leno and beckoned:
"Jarvis, come to me."
"Yes, sir."
Li Nuo responded, holding the silenced rifle in his hand, and leaned over little by little.
The vigilance in his eyes did not fade in the slightest.
When he saw the pillar of flames, he knew it was Second Lieutenant Grett who had come to his aid.
But that doesn't mean the crisis is over.
In fact, through deconstruction, Li Nuo has found the crypt spider hiding in the ceiling.
As Second Lieutenant Glitter said, this Crypt Spider, a Death Society Assassin, came with a secret plan.
After hiding on the ceiling, it didn't stay away from the place because of the arrival of Second Lieutenant Gretel.
That's where it comes in.
It wouldn't give up easily, not even when Second Lieutenant Glitter was here.
It hovers over the ceiling, like an old spicy hunter who keeps an eye on its prey, ready to deliver a fatal blow when the prey is slackening.
As Li Nuo moved, his gaze lingered on the ceiling above his head, and the deconstruction technique was released one after another, keeping track of the enemy's movements.
Sergeant Mars saw Leno coming from the darkness.
He followed the other man's gaze and looked up to the heights, but only saw the darkness so dense that it could not be dispersed:
"What's wrong, Jarvis? What are you looking at? ”
Li Nuo told the truth:
"Sir, I always felt like the Crypt Spider hadn't left, it seemed like it was watching us right above our heads."
Sergeant Mars clenched his rifle and looked over his head with a frown, but he could not find any trace of the enemy.
Lend an hear.
There seemed to be no noteworthy noise in the air other than the sound of Second Lieutenant Gretel smashing the wall.
Sergeant Mars withdrew his gaze, beckoned to Linot, and motioned for him to follow:
"Jarvis, don't worry about it. The monster should have taken refuge for the time being. We hurried over to join Second Lieutenant Gretel. ”
At this moment, two very faint air vibrations came from high in the sky.
Li Nuo's eyes froze, and he grabbed Sergeant Mars's arm and dragged the other party to the side.
With two clicks, two slimy cobwebs fell from the sky and landed on the sides of the two of them, forming two walls of cobwebs.
Two more air tremors were heard.
This time, even Sergeant Mars heard it.
He didn't bother to express his gratitude to Li Nuo, pushed the other party away, and then rolled on the spot, dodged the attack, and then raised his gun to shoot.
But before he could pull the trigger, a cloud of cobwebs smashed accurately on his gun, wrapping it around and bringing it to the ceiling with a "boom".
Sergeant Mars was disarmed!
After Li Nuo dodged the cobwebs, he did not take out his gun and shoot, but took out the copper whistle and blew it again.
At the very moment when Mars's gun was taken away by the crypt spider, Ensign Gretel heard the whistle using the special ear structure.
"This damn monster is still here!?" Ensign Gretel roared:
"Where is it? Can you see it? Shoot the bullet so I can hear it so I can lock its bearings! ”
Li Nuo was calm and calm, and he did not show any panic when he was in danger.
He picked up his rifle and squinted into the sky, ignoring the layers of darkness and firing several shots in quick succession.
With the first five shots, he aimed at the ceiling near the Crypt Spider and deliberately missed, creating the illusion that he was searching for the enemy's location with bullets.
With the last shot, he shot at the Crypt Spider with precision.
The sound of a bullet hitting a stone brick is not the same as the sound of a spider hitting a crypt spider.
The former is more crisp, while the latter resembles the muffled sound of a throwing knife hitting a stake.
As soon as Ensign Gretel heard the unusual sound of the bullet, he immediately raised his right hand and released a pillar of flame towards the bullet point.
The Crypt Spider who was hit by the bullet screamed:
"Damned sinners! How can your luck be so good?! You found me out so quickly!? ”
Facing the pillar of flame pointed at him, the Crypt Spider rushed into rage:
"Gretel! I'm going to tear you apart! ”
It jumped on the ceiling, dodging the scorching pillar of flame.
said that it was going to trouble Gretel, but its posture was pulled by the spider line, and it completed the difficult action of changing direction in the air, and turned to pounce on Mars below, which was really cunning.
The light of the pillar of flame can illuminate ordinary darkness, but it cannot dispel the dark horizon caused by "perceptual obstruction".
Leno was able to deconstruct the Crypt Spider's movements, but Sergeant Mars couldn't rely on the light of the Pillar of Fire to see the Crypt Spider.
Unbeknownst to Sergeant Mars, the Crypt Spider was already coming at him!
Lino had to think of a reasonable way to remind Mars.
His mind was spinning, and in an instant, he had a plan.
"Sir, take this gun."
With both hands, Leno deliberately threw his rifle into the open space next to Mars, rather than directly at Mars himself.
Sergeant Mars heard Lino and reached for his gun.
In order to accurately receive the rifle, he subconsciously moved half a meter.
With this move, he just made the crypt spider that pounced down into the air.
When Sergeant Mars grabbed the rifle and looked sideways, he immediately came to eye contact with the crypt spider...
Sergeant Mars was startled by the sudden monster, and hurriedly grabbed his rifle horizontally, and thrust forward with force, blocking the chelicera that stretched out to his chest:
"It's here, sir! It's right in front of me! ”
"Hula!" A pillar of flame came!
Sergeant Mars rolled on the spot, avoiding the dangerous flames.
The Crypt Spider also retracted to the ceiling at the same time:
"Ahh My patience has been drained by you! Damn "Imperial Fist", damn Imperial soldiers. The most damned thing is you sinner, you always spoil my good deeds!! All to die, all to die! ”
The crypt spider roared in frustration.
I don't know what it did, but there was a strong rancid stench in the air, and a vibration sound similar to that of locusts flying in groups.
"Not good! This guy isn't going to stay alive! It's summoning "putrid bugs! ”
Ensign Gretel shouted anxiously:
"You two run, don't get caught up by poisonous insects! I'll drag this monster here! Retreat to the basement with the rest of the soldiers, and leave me alone!" I'm here for you! ”
Sergeant Mars choked up and shouted:
"Sir!"
"Let's go!" Ensign Gretel shouted unquestioningly:
"The Crypt Spider is a more powerful being than me, and the 'Rotten Bug Flies' it summons with all its might are enough to kill all the soldiers on the scene! Tell the big guys to retreat! That's an order! ”
