Chapter 119: Lethal Venom Spider Mother

Boom!

The war hammer slammed to the ground, its violent force instantly blasting a huge pit in the earth; the dozen or so corrosive ants at the forefront didn't even have time to cry out before being shattered into powder by the terrifying shockwave!

However, the number of corrosive ants was simply too great!

The ant swarm behind fearlessly trampled on their companions' corpses, wave after wave surging forward!

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Dozens of streams of emerald-green acid sprayed from their mouths like high-pressure water guns, shooting straight at the members of the Heaven's Punishment team!

Scatter! Watch out!

Han Ya gave a soft shout, her body flickering like a ghost as she weaved through the gaps in the acid; each swing of her short blade precisely sliced open the head of a corrosive ant!

The other team members each displayed their own abilities.

The battle had already gone into full swing from the very start.

However, this ant tide that would be deadly to ordinary people posed little threat to the current Heaven's Punishment team.

Having been enhanced by the super-soldier serum, their strength, speed, and reflexes had long since reached an inhuman level.

In just five minutes, the battle was over.

The ground was littered with the shattered remains of corrosive ants, and the air reeked of a harsh acidic stench mixed with the smell of blood.

Pah! Damn, that wasn't satisfying at all!

Man Niu slammed his war hammer to the ground, looking at the corpses all around, and said, still unsatisfied.

The other team members weren't as exaggerated, but their faces also showed a hint of ease and satisfaction.

This first battle was won far too easily.

Don't let your guard down.

Han Ya flicked the green blood from her short blade, sheathed it, and her icy gaze swept over everyone,

I always have a feeling that things aren't that simple.

Lin Yue looked at their expressions, merely gave a faint smile, and said nothing more.

He walked over to a corrosive ant corpse, crouched, dipped a finger in the emerald-green acid, and brought it to his nose to sniff.

The concentration is quite high.

He rose to his feet, gazing toward the deeper part of the park where the poisonous mist grew thicker, a playful glint flashing in his eyes.

Let's go; the real 'good stuff' should still be waiting for us inside.

Lin Yue's voice wasn't loud, but it instantly tightened the hearts of the Heaven's Punishment team members, who had just begun to relax.

City Lord, you… have you discovered something?

Han Ya walked up beside Lin Yue, her clear eyes holding a hint of doubt.

Nothing.

Lin Yue said while continuing to walk deeper into the park.

I just feel that this place is more interesting than I imagined.

Seeing this, Han Ya and the others could only suppress their doubts, rally their spirits, and closely follow behind.

The further they went, the stranger the surroundings became, even beginning to affect their vision.

The deadly poisonous marshes on the ground also grew more numerous and more concealed.

Damn, this creepy place is truly nerve‑racking at every step!

Man Niu stared at a deep‑green mire bubbling with toxic gases beneath his feet, and couldn't help muttering a curse.

Just moments ago, he had almost stepped right into it.

If it weren't for the monkey pulling him back in time, he'd probably be a skeleton now.

Shut up! Stay alert!

Han Ya turned her head and gave him a cold stare.

Man Niu shrank his neck, not daring to make a sound.

The team pressed on, but the atmosphere grew increasingly oppressive.

Everyone vigilantly scanned every corner of their surroundings, fearing that some deadly monster might burst out from an inconspicuous shadow.

Hiss——

Just then, a grating hiss rang out from above them without warning!

Above!

Everyone instinctively looked up, their pupils contracting sharply!

Only to see, within the thick poisonous mist above their heads, a dozen or so giant webs made of white slime silently unfurling like ghosts!

Those giant webs were extremely sticky, and they emitted a sizzling corrosive toxin!

Oh no! Disperse quickly!

Han Ya gave a sharp cry, pushed off hard with her feet, and shot backward like a cannonball!

The other team members reacted just as swiftly, each scattering in all directions at top speed!

Yet two team members, unable to dodge in time, were firmly ensnared by the descending giant webs!

Sizzle——

The corrosive toxin dripped onto their nano combat suits, instantly sending up puffs of white smoke!

The energy readout on the surface of their suits was plummeting at an astonishing speed!

Damn it! This thing won't come undone!

The two teammates trapped in the webs thrashed wildly, desperately sawing at the spider silk with their alloy swords, to little effect.

The toughness of those spider webs far exceeded their imagination!

"Don't panic! We're here to save you!"

"The savage bull let out a roar, raising the alloy war hammer in his hand high, intending to charge up and smash that spider web open with brute force!"

"Don't be impulsive!"

"Han Ya, however, grabbed him with one hand, her icy gaze locked firmly on the surging poison mist above."

"The main culprit……hasn't shown up yet!"

"As if to confirm her words, at the moment her voice fell."

"Shush—"

"A chilling, dense crawling sound came from the top of a huge reaction tank above their heads."

"Immediately after, a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the poison mist."

"It was a giant spider over thirty meters long, its entire body covered in dark purple carapace!"

"Its body bore eight long, scythe-like limbs, sharp and slender; each movement left deep gouges on the hard alloy tank."

"On its ferocious head, dozens of red compound eyes of various sizes crowded together, now gleaming with a bloodthirsty light as they stared at them."

"Everyone felt a chill run down their spines!"

"It's a 3rd-level Mutant Beast Venomous Spider Mother!"

"A team member shouted in alarm, obviously recognizing what kind of Mutant Beast this was."

"3rd-level Mutant Beast!"

"Those five words struck like a heavy hammer, slamming hard into the hearts of every member of the Heaven's Punishment squad."

"Don't think their earlier easy kill of the corrosive ants means anything; those ants are merely 1st-level Mutant Beasts, and their danger compared to this 3rd-level Mutant Beast Venomous Spider Mother before them is worlds apart!"

"A slight mistake could wipe out the entire force!"

"They might die, but City Lord Lin Yue absolutely cannot die here."

"At this moment, everyone prepared to fight to the death!"

"Warning! Energy Shield below thirty percent! Warning! High-intensity corrosion detected!"

"Warning! Energy Shield below twenty percent!"

"The urgent alarm from the combat suits of the two teammates trapped in the web sank everyone's hearts to the bottom."

"They learned from survivors of Suchen that when those people previously entered this place, not to mention 3rd-level Mutant Beasts, they hadn't even seen a shadow of a 1st-level Mutant Beast."

"But how long have they been in here?"

"They've actually encountered two waves of Mutant Beasts in succession, and now a huge 3rd-level one has outright appeared!"

"What the hell is going on here?!"

"Could it be that those survivors of Suchen are all chosen ones?"

"Or……is there some hidden secret in here?"

"Although everyone wondered what was going on, they now had no time to think about it."

"Because, the venomous spider mother has launched another attack!"
