In the dark basement, the damp, musty smell mixed with the odor of engine oil was nauseating.
"hiss--!"
The mechanical spider's shrieking sound made the walls tremble. Its eight long metal legs were like sharp scythes, and each swing produced a piercing metallic scraping sound on the ground.
Dozens of eyes embedded in the head spun wildly, each reflecting the players' expressions—fearful, angry, calm.
"Spread out! You're standing too close together!" Xiao Jin shouted, his figure instantly turning into a blur, his long sword drawing a cold silver light in the dim basement.
Unfortunately, the villa's basement wasn't very big to begin with, and the mechanical spider in front of them was nearly two meters tall. There were many players here, so they couldn't really maneuver properly.
Xiao Jin's ability to teleport allowed him to approach the mechanical spider's flank almost in the blink of an eye, his blade aimed straight at the joint—the BOSS's most vulnerable spot.
"clang!"
Sparks flew as the metal clashed; the mechanical spider's exoskeleton was harder than expected. Xiao Jin's blade barely made a shallow cut, but the spider reacted with lightning speed, its hind leg sweeping out like a whip!
"Xiao Jin! Bow your head!" Song Chao's roar rang out from behind.
Xiao Jin didn't turn around. Her body bent down subconsciously, and the spider's leg blades grazed the back of her head, the force of the wind making her scalp ache.
And at that very moment—
"Charge!"
Song Chao slammed the red staff in his hand heavily onto the ground, and crimson runes spread from the bottom of the staff like magma, instantly outlining a complex fire array on the floor of the basement.
"boom!"
A blazing pillar of fire shot into the sky from the formation, striking the mechanical spider precisely on the abdomen.
The high temperature caused the mechanical spider's metal shell to quickly turn red and deform, and the spider emitted painful hissing sounds as its eight legs twitched wildly.
"Well done!" Tong Xiaolu shouted, flicking her wrist. Golden chains shot out like serpents, instantly wrapping around the spider's two front legs.
The sealing runes engraved on the chains lit up with a dazzling golden light, and the mechanical spider's movements immediately slowed down.
"Now!" Tong Xiaolu shouted.
"Here it comes!" Chu Yuan sneered, the Rubik's Cube in his hand spinning rapidly, the colors on each face changing wildly.
"Click!"
The Rubik's Cube is now in place, and all six sides have turned scarlet.
The next second, the Rubik's Cube disintegrated and reassembled, transforming into dozens of tiny flying blades that rained down on the mechanical spider's head!
"Puff puff puff—!"
The flying blade pierced the spider's eyeball with pinpoint accuracy, spurting out a spray of dark green slime. The mechanical spider erupted in fury, its remaining eyeballs flashing wildly, and its body jerked violently—
"Snap!"
One of Tong Xiaolu's golden chains was actually broken!
"Damn it!" Tong Xiaolu staggered backward, the backlash from the chains causing her hand to split open, blood dripping down her wrist.
The mechanical spider went completely berserk, ignoring everyone else and lunging straight at the most vulnerable Tong Xiaolu!
"Little Deer!" Song Chao's eyes were bloodshot, and he slammed his long staff into the ground again, but the formation needed time to cool down.
Although he had only known Tong Xiaolu for a short time, this strong little girl left a deep impression on Song Chao, making him unconsciously think of his own sister.
Song Chao hoped that his younger sister could also grow stronger in the game, just like Tong Xiaolu, and wait to reunite with him.
At the critical moment—
With a "whoosh!", Xiao Jin's figure appeared on top of the spider's head like a ghost.
She held the long sword upside down, tip pointing downwards, and plunged it fiercely into the spider's largest main eye!
"hiss--!"
This attack caused the mechanical spider to let out a dying scream, its body convulsing violently, its eight legs flailing wildly in an attempt to throw Xiao Jin off.
Xiao Jin gripped the hilt of the knife tightly, her legs clamping around the spider's head, letting the metal shards scrape through her crystallized armor and dig deep into her skin.
Blood flowed down the blade into the spider's body, but Xiao Jin's eyes remained as cold as ice.
She then twisted the handle sharply, the blade churning inside the spider's skull in an attempt to destroy its core completely.
The mechanical spider sensed Xiao Jin's thoughts and panicked instantly. It forcefully tore off two more of its legs, and with a shudder, finally managed to fling Xiao Jin away.
Xiao Jin tumbled a few times in the air before landing steadily, catching the fragments that were thrown out at the same time.
"Let's all go together," Chu Yuan shouted.
However, just as they were about to approach the BOSS and were about to deliver the fatal blow...
"Whoosh!"
A cold glint suddenly flashed from the side!
Xiao Jin dodged to the side, the metal fan blade grazing her shoulder and leaving a trace of blood.
Good evening, Chinese gamers!
Sakurai Chinatsu emerged from the shadows with a light laugh, her fan swishing open with a cold light. Behind her, about twenty blue team players slowly appeared, their faces bearing sinister smiles.
"You've finally shown yourselves," Xiao Jin said coldly, without the slightest surprise on his face.
The others felt the same way. After all, with such a big commotion on their side, it would be a bit unreasonable if the Blue Team hadn't noticed yet!
Sakurai Chinatsu covered her mouth and chuckled, "Don't be so cold, we're here to help~"
Help? Nobody believes that!
The players on the red team couldn't help but mutter complaints to themselves.
Chu Yuan didn't say much, but pointed his weapon directly at Sakurai Chinatsu: "If you want to fight, then fight, stop talking nonsense. Taking the BOSS is something you have to see if you have the ability to do it."
Sakurai Chinatsu's smile remained unchanged, and she gently waved her fan: "As you wish."
