Chapter 98 Crisis
The feather arrows that penetrate deep into the head have completely destroyed the ganglia of this giant spider. This giant monster spider with a huge body does not have to worry about its nervous system processing capabilities, so the ganglia of the brain are often only divided into the head.
As long as their heads are destroyed, they will die completely. At present, this third-level monster has collapsed to the ground, with eight pointed feet curled up stiffly, silently.
"Hiss~~~!"
"Shit-!"
Another companion was killed by other giant spiders surrounding the camp, and they all started to clamor. The long arthropods were shaking, and the huge body kept exploring forward, and there was a striking attitude of collective rushing to fight for a moment when there was a disagreement.
Seeing the spider group restless, Shandelke, who was busy with the whole team, was covered in cold sweat. These were more than a dozen third-level monsters. Although there was a fourth-level warrior on his side, most of them were only first-level and second-level, and there was even a group of ordinary businessmen. If these tall and wide spiders rushed in, the damage and casualties caused could be imagined!
"Quick! Hurry up! Get your weapons! Defensive formation!" As the spiders' hissings, Sandelke roared anxiously.
Whether they were members of the Yuema Mercenary Group or not, all the mercenaries stood in their own position under his command - except for the Allan Liya and the other three.
The elf was still standing on the top of the highest tent, and five sharp arrows were already on the guardian bow. His breathing was slightly rapid, but it showed that the attack she had just made was not easy.
Gerfen stood quietly in the middle of the camp, facing the seventy or eighty eyes of more than a dozen third-level monsters, still calm and unmoved.
However, Liya was so happy that she jumped off the back of the dead giant spider. The enchanted sword in her hand gently stroked the head of the giant spider, which had become extremely fragile after losing her life, was instantly cut open.
"Pa~" A black crystal covered with yellow and white mucus fell to the ground. Liya took out a handkerchief from somewhere, leaned over and wrapped the crystal, and showed a satisfied smile on her face - these were all shining gold coins!
"Zheng--" A dense sound of weapons being sheathed suddenly sounded, and the mercenaries who had already arranged their formations drew out their weapons one after another!
Hundreds of sudden sounds of gold and stone echoed in the open forest, instantly overshadowing the giant spiders' hissings!
The originally restless giant spiders all stopped, and there was a hint of hesitation in their cold eyes.
After all, they are Warcraft, not well-trained armies. Attacking human caravans is just to find food to fill their stomachs. Warcraft is the best group to measure the output ratio. If the price they pay is much higher than the reward they get, then no matter how tempting the food in front of them is, Warcraft will often choose to retreat decisively.
Generally speaking, only when protecting the territory or population, the monsters will fight to the death. Obviously, this situation has nothing to do with the territory population at the moment, it is just a pure hunt. After paying the price of the lives of nine companions and finding that these foods are extremely difficult to eat, their first choice is to retreat.
If you can't beat it, run away!
"Shasha——" The toes of the giant spiders rubbed against the fallen leaves layer, and their huge bodies slowly retreated with vigilance.
Seeing these terrifying spider monsters retreat, the mercenaries who formed a defensive formation based on the carriage breathed a sigh of relief. After all, they were in a state of great confidence in their fight against a group of third-level monsters.
However, just as this predation and resistance were about to end, a sudden change occurred!
"Hiss-ho--" A obviously different hiss suddenly sounded, and everyone felt as if a group of ants were penetrated into the back of their heads. They were extremely numb and itchy but they couldn't start, so that goose bumps appeared on their skin.
With this strange hissing, the retreating giant spiders seemed to have received some order. After a sudden pause, they rushed toward the mercenaries who were somewhat loose because of relaxation!
"Prepare to catch the enemy!" Shandelke, who was standing in front of everyone, grabbed the giant axe in his hand, his knotted muscles suddenly tensed, and he also loudly commanded the mercenaries behind him.
Unexpectedly, when the giant spider group was about to rush into the camp, they suddenly changed directions and had no intention of confronting these humans head-on. Instead, they flew around the camp!
The mercenaries who were ready for battle looked at each other. No one knew what these powerful monsters were crazy about. Do they still have the habit of doing pre-dinner exercises?
However, when she saw this strange scene, a ominous premonition surged in Liya's heart. She carefully looked at the movement trajectory of the giant spiders, and an introduction in the Warcraft Picture Book suddenly came to her mind: "No! They want to trap us with spider webs!"
"What?!" Sandelke couldn't help but be shocked!
You should know that the human side is always at a disadvantage in terms of strength, and its only advantage is that it can form a defensive formation to resist the attacks of giant spiders.
From beginning to end, he never thought of destroying this group of terrifying monsters - Sandelke, who has rich mercenary experience, naturally knew the general habits of the monsters.
In his imagination, as long as these giant spiders feel that if they fight to the death, they will naturally retreat.
In fact, everything was originally carried out according to the expected situation, and Sandelke also thought his response was impeccable, but who could tell him what crazy these giant spiders were? Didn’t he find that there was a fourth-level strongman in charge here?
"It's the queen of the spider." Lea's voice was not loud, with the soft and cuteness unique to Loli, but it was clearly heard in the noisy "rustling" sound of the giant spiders.
"What...what?!" Shandelke felt that his face was going to be stiff because he was too surprised.
That is the "Spider Queen"! As the ruler of a magical beast spider tribe, the Spider Queen will not only be one to two levels higher than other spiders, but what is even more terrifying is that she has wisdom!
If it were just these ordinary third-level giant spiders, Sandrick's wishful thinking might work. But if it was a giant spider group led by the Spider Queen, then this human caravan would be really in danger. The Spider Queen could not only easily see through the strength level of the prey, but also rely on her own wisdom to organize a group of loose giant spiders into a well-trained hunting team!
Sure enough, as the giant spiders spared no effort to run, circles of spider silk with yellow mucus gradually appeared around the camp, and the huge cage woven by the spider web was forming in a visible degree to the naked eye!
The deputy commander of the Yuema Mercenary Group looked bitter and used his toes to know the toughness of these spider webs. With the current level of the mercenaries behind him, the possibility of breaking through is really slim...
Fortunately, the fourth-level strongman on his side seemed to be the top fourth-level warrior, which can be seen from the battle she killed the same fourth-level horse bandit leader in a short period of time!
Thinking of this, Sandelke couldn't help but look at the girl who stood quietly in the middle of the camp and had never moved from beginning to end, and her eyes became more eager.
"Hiss~~" "Hiss!"
Just as Sanderk was thinking about how to ask the girl with red eyes, the giant spiders outside the spider web cage suddenly made loud noises, interrupting his thoughts.
Sandelke couldn't help but look up—
The white mist that condensed again at some point made people's eyes see only a shadow.
I saw more than a dozen spotted giant spiders who were originally sprinting to weave the net. Except for five of them, they continued to weave the net, the other giant spiders seemed to be greeted and lined up neatly in two rows.
Suddenly, two strange red lights slashed through the fog, dazzling and dazzling!
Then four strange red lights lit up, like magic wind lights in the sea of fog, making it difficult to see them!
The giant spider's hissing had already quieted down, and there was no sound in the human team except for the heavy breathing.
"Sand--!" "Sand--!" "Sand---!"
The "rustling" sound of step by step became the only tone in this extremely quiet forest, as if every step was stepping on a person's heartbeat, snatching everyone's hearts deeply!
The six strange red lights magnified slowly and firmly. In the white mist, two rows of giant spiders that looked like guards of honor were lying deeply on the ground, motionless.
Gradually, a figure twice as big as an ordinary giant spider with a marking appeared from the fog, and the six cold and strange red lights turned out to be its six spider eyes!
The moment this huge figure appeared, Gerfen's delicate eyebrows frowned slightly, Leah's little face was solemn, and Sandelke's face turned pale in an instant!
Chapter completed!
