Chapter 24 Eat While It's Hot



Xiaobai glanced at the somewhat chaotic crowd below and left with Beibei...

Ye Qingning and the others below looked at the direction the White Spider left and couldn't help but feel a little confused. That was the south of the city... Why would the White Spider go to the south of the city? I heard it's very dangerous there...

It is not far from the east district to the south district, but there is a road of more than ten kilometers in between, and Xiaobai doesn’t know where he is going exactly.

However, it had observed from the tall buildings in the east of the city that there was an urban area further ahead. It was also quite far from the blue locust tree to the east, so the blue flowers wouldn't drift this way. There should still be something to eat there...

There were still some buildings on both sides of the road, but there were more green plants. At this moment, they were all overgrown with weeds and looked a bit desolate. Xiaobai carried Beibei on his back and walked along the road.

"Puppy~Good boy~Puppy~Good boy~"

Beibei leaned on the little white spider's back, humming a little tune out of boredom.

Xiaobai raised his head from time to time to check the direction. Looking at the large number of buildings that had begun to emerge in front of him, he thought to himself that it seemed that he was almost there...

Seeing this, Beibei on his body also sat up, crawled to Xiao Xiaobai's side, looked at the city ahead, and asked.

"Xiaobai, are we there yet?"

Xiaobai nodded and quickened his pace. After walking for most of the day, he felt a little hungry.

As a matter of habit, as soon as they arrived in the city, Xiaobai took Beibei and climbed up the wall and began to move towards the city...

The weather was still clear, with the sun occasionally shining through the clouds, bringing light to the city.

But at this moment, the empty streets in the city were silent, and the ground was clean. Aside from the rustling of leaves in the breeze, the entire city was eerily quiet...

"What's going on here? Why is there no one here?"

Beibei poked her head out from Xiaobai's back and scanned the surrounding streets, but she couldn't see a single person, not even a single insect...

“How strange…”

Even Xiaobai was puzzled by the strange atmosphere of this city. The buildings here were still relatively intact and had not suffered any large-scale damage. Why did it look like a deserted city...

But they had come a long way and didn't want to leave so easily, so they began to look carefully towards the city center, hoping to find something to eat.

…………

“Run!”

As a shout was heard on the street, several men and women ran out from the corner of the street, stumbling and running wildly, as if something terrifying was chasing them from behind!

Bang! —

As a man who fell behind fell to the ground in panic, everyone looked back and saw several milky white tentacles as thick as arms extending from the corner at the end of the street and attacking the fallen man!

"Get up quickly!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, reminding the man to escape quickly.

But the man who had struggled to get up looked back in panic, and his legs went weak with fear.

“Don’t… don’t come over here…”

The man slumped on the ground, backing away continuously, picking up debris from around him and throwing it at the tentacles, trying to force them back.

But this attack was of no use to the tentacles, which simply wrapped the man up.

A sharp spike extended from the end of the tentacle and pierced the man's chest fiercely. As the tentacle squirmed, the struggling man gradually became motionless...

By the time the tentacles let go of the man, he had already turned into a dried corpse. The rest of the people who were still running away were so frightened that they dared not look back.

Wang Qing gasped for breath and ran forward with difficulty. The terror behind her made her dare not stop.

Looking at her teammates ahead who had left her far behind, she felt a sense of despair. She was just a fragile college student, there was no way she could outrun them...

I remember seeing a video when I was in school that asked:

Q: What should I do if I encounter a black bear in the wild?

Answer: Just run faster than your teammates.

She laughed at that time. If she had known earlier, she would have exercised more and run more...

The touch from her waist interrupted Wang Qing's thoughts. She looked down and saw a tentacle had wrapped around her abdomen, followed by a huge force that lifted her up.

Another tentacle had already reached her, with the spike at the end already extended...

Wang Qing widened her eyes in horror, watching the sharp spikes in front of her slowly stabbing towards her. Her throat felt like it was blocked by a stone and she couldn't make a sound. Was she going to witness her own death with her own eyes?

The answer is no! Female college students, good people will be blessed by heaven, bad people will be punished by heaven, and fools will not be punished by heaven.

A flash of cold light flashed across his vision, and then a silver-haired girl wearing a headscarf appeared before him. Her delicate features were incredibly beautiful, and her mysterious purple eyes glanced at him lightly...

The tentacles on her body broke, and Wang Qing fell to the ground in a daze, still savoring the glance just now...

As a little girl ran up to her and picked up the tentacle debris on the ground, Wang Qing finally realized that she was not dead? Those eyes she had just seen, that fairy sister...

Seeing the little girl in front of her suddenly bite the remains of the tentacle, Wang Qing was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stopped her.

"Don't eat it! What are you doing? You can't eat this!"

Beibei looked at the girl in front of her who was stopping her from eating strangely, feeling a little confused.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that the little girl actually asked why, Wang Qing thought that she was too hungry, so she took out two bags of chocolate from her pocket and handed them to Beibei.

"Are you hungry? You can't eat that. Eat this."

Beibei looked at the chocolate handed to her by the girl, recognized it, opened the bag and tried a piece. As a strange taste came into her mouth, Beibei quickly spit it out. What happened?

"What’s wrong with you?"

"Pah, pah, pah... it tastes terrible."

Wang Qing felt strange when she saw Beibei looking like she had eaten something, so she ate the remaining piece of chocolate and found that there was nothing wrong with it.

Beibei ignored Wang Qing, picked up the tentacle stump from the ground, bit it, and then sucked the tentacle dry in Wang Qing's shocked eyes.

Beibei's eyes lit up, she smacked her lips, and then shouted behind her.

"Xiaobai! It's delicious!"

Hearing Beibei's shout, Wang Qing realized that on the street ahead, a large white spider was struggling with the tentacles...

It would be more accurate to say that it was a one-sided crushing by the white spider rather than a fight. Every time the tentacles tried to attack the white spider, they would be cut off by the white spider at an extremely fast speed.

However, the severed tentacles would instantly grow back, and the broken limbs were scattered all over the ground, which was extremely strange.

Beibei looked at the tentacles on the ground in confusion. She had only sucked two broken limbs, so why did all the other tentacles begin to shrink?

Beibei looked at the tentacles that were cut off by Xiaobai and fell to the ground, and found that those tentacles would shrink quickly after being cut off.

Beibei picked up a few and tried to suck them, but found that she could not suck out anything. It seemed that the nutrients had been lost. Beibei suddenly realized!

"Xiaobai! Eat this while it's hot! Otherwise it won't taste good!"
