Chapter 70 70. Spider Web

In Xu Zhi's opinion, this man's transformation would only reduce him to the lowest level of fanatics, so naturally he didn't know much.

We still have to capture a rational fanatic to torture him for more details.

However, going out for a walk really allows one to see more extraordinary people with unique abilities. Xu Zhi had an idea in her mind. She didn't know if the short-haired girl's extraordinary ability was stronger, whether she could directly suppress the [restlessness] of this little alien. But this matter was a bit uncertain, so she had to let Zhong Lingfan study it.

Let’s talk about it first until there is a definite result.

Maybe she should find some assistants for Zhong Lingfan to cooperate with her in experiments, and are there any laboratories in Yuncheng?

She didn't know much about this, but she could ask Zhong Lingfan when she got back.

After packing up this group of people and finding two random cars, Xiaozhen was asked to escort them to the old residential area. Although it was called an escort, it actually had a bit of an escort feel to prevent this group of people from running away halfway.

The reason why Xiaozhen was chosen was because it flew the fastest. After sending these people back, it would be able to return to Xu Zhi in no time.

Xu Zhi did not stay there to wait for Xiaozhen to return, but drove further away. She drove around the edge of the Third Ring Road according to the map. After driving for about half a day, near dusk, the car encountered some abnormalities.

Xu Zhi was not an experienced driver. She just subtly felt that the car had become a little "heavy" and was a little slower than before. She needed to step on the accelerator a little more to get to the same speed as before.

In the thick black and gray fog, she couldn't see clearly what was blocking the car's progress, but the car was getting heavier and heavier.

This area is a quiet urban area, surrounded by shops and high-rise buildings that have long been deserted. It is not very prosperous, after all, it is only the third ring road.

The car was moving slower and slower. In desperation, Xu Zhi opened the window and let Xiaoyi climb out to see what was going on.

Soon, Xiaoyi took a look around outside and then climbed back into the car window, and Xu Zhi also found something wrong with it.

The black scales all over Xiao Zhou's body were not as cool as before, as if covered with a layer of gauze. Xu Zhi reached out and touched it, and she felt something, like a layer of transparent and extremely thin membrane. No, she rubbed it gently with her fingers, and then picked it up.

"Is this spider silk?"

Xu Zhi was a little surprised. She quickly picked up the game console next to her, and the narration appeared as she wished.

[Your luck is always surprisingly good. Yes, this is spider silk. Perhaps you can get the necessary items to make a lantern from it.]

[However, the spider silk here is not tough enough and cannot withstand the flames. You should go deeper and find spider silk of better quality.]

"This looks like a mutant spider's nest. I'm afraid a single mutant spider can't spit out so much silk. There might be a whole bunch of them. Is it dangerous to go deeper?"

[Who knows? Anything is possible for something like this that hasn't happened yet. It all depends on whether you want the spider silk or not.]

"Of course I want it." Xu Zhi sighed.

"Can these spider silks be burned by fire?"

[If it's just the outer layer of spider silk, it's OK.]

"That'll do."

Xu Zhi had an idea. She planned to set this place on fire and burn off the flammable spider silk that could not resist flames first. Then, wouldn't the remaining spider silk be able to resist burning by flames?

A simple and crude method that works, but will it anger the mutant spider hiding inside?

If you are angry, you are angry.

Xu Zhi got out of the car and took out the spare gasoline from the trunk. He tore off a piece of cloth, dipped it in gasoline, but did not ignite it directly. Instead, he picked up the small alien and stretched it a little. Then he cleaned up the spider silk around the car that was so transparent that it was almost invisible to avoid getting burned. Then he lit the cloth and threw it away.

Ordinary spider silk is too thin and will curl up immediately when ignited by fire, but the spider silk here is densely packed throughout the entire space. Almost as soon as the burning cloth is thrown out, the spider silk it touches will immediately start to burn, and then quickly spread to the surroundings. Stars of fire spread from one point to the surroundings. Xu Zhi heard the sound of burning and smelled the stench.

The area covered by spider silk was wider than she had expected. It took a long time to burn out, until it seemed to burn to a certain position, and suddenly several shrill roars came from inside.

"It seems that he has noticed that his lair has been attacked?"

Xu Zhi stood there, waiting with interest for the angry mutant spiders to come and settle the score with her.

Most of the mutant animals have low IQs, and when they encounter such a thing, they will definitely come to find the culprit and fight.

Sure enough, not long after, Xu Zhi saw dozens of huge black spiders rushing towards her. They were densely packed and either crawling on the ground or on the walls of buildings.

No, there were even more than dozens, because Xu Zhi discovered that in addition to these leading the way, there were actually countless spiders following behind.

She had read in a book that spiders have a strong reproductive capacity, and she guessed that there must be hundreds or even thousands of mutant spiders in this nest?

However, Xu Zhi was not afraid. Looking at the aggressive army of mutant spiders, she calmly drew her Tang sword, activated her [Prying Eyes], and then ordered Xiaoyi and Gouzi, "Kill them."

In the eyes of those with extraordinary abilities, these mutant spiders all have one common attribute: [Enlightenment].

"Why is the spider the Kai attribute?"

Xu Zhi didn't quite understand, but that didn't stop her from killing these mutated spiders.

The small alien species clung to her, stretching out slender black branches, trying to kill any mutant spiders that approached Xu Zhi, while Gou Zi and Xiao Yi could kill many mutant spiders with just a casual move.

The length and width of these mutant spiders are mostly about one meter, which is a rather abnormal body shape, but compared with other mutant animals, such as Gouzi and Xiaoyi, they also appear petite.

They didn't know that Xu Zhi, the "weak human", was the culprit, and they just indiscriminately attacked any suspicious creature that appeared in front of them.

There were two followers blocking the way ahead, and not many of them could pass through them and reach Xu Zhi. Most of them were killed immediately by the small alien species when they approached her, and Xu Zhi didn't even have time to take action.

Only when there were occasional leaks and not enough branches of the small alien species, would Xu Zhi have the opportunity to pick up the Tang sword and test his current combat effectiveness in actual combat.

Then she discovered that compared to her, these mutant spiders were so weak that she could easily pierce their seemingly hard shells with an ordinary knife without much effort.

Yes, in addition to their body size, these mutated spiders have also changed in appearance, such as growing a shell.

But even the spider, which was already very agile, could not gain any advantage under Xu Zhi.

Perhaps more of these spiders would indeed cause trouble to Xu Zhi, but she was not fighting alone, so even though it was her first time facing a mutant animal, Xu Zhi did not feel that the battle was difficult.
