Chapter 57: Firefight
【Tengu Mountain Forest Sea】
Several sturdy old trees, tightly wrapped with tough white spider silk, are built into a simple hammock.
The hammock was swaying in the wind, and on top of the hammock, a huge spider was lying on it, shaking its head.
Bang!!!
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the front, which made the spider raise his head alertly. When he looked closely, he saw a strong bull appearing in front of him!
The spider narrowed its eight eyes comfortably. It had encountered this familiar guy before when it was catching a huge fly flying in the air.
This is a strange prey that will fall from the sky and won't run away. It's true that there are many strange things in the world!
Of course, these are not important. What is important is that the spider gained experience after the last hunt.
That is, this guy tastes pretty good.
As the jaw continued to swing, a large amount of dissolving liquid was injected into the bull's body. Then the spider injected its mouthparts into it and began to eat leisurely.
"Report! The target has successfully eaten the bull injected with poison!"
"very good!"
A tall officer next to Minister Miki rubbed his shoulders.
In fact, they all know that the probability of success in doing so is not high. Although spiders cannot compare with the real "detoxification masters" in nature, they can also be considered first-class.
The first is the way they eat. Spiders generally inject digestive enzymes into the tissues of their prey, which can quickly break down the prey's nutrients such as protein, fat and carbohydrates.
For most poisons, they are basically diluted after this step.
Even if it is successfully ingested by the other party, certain substances in the spider's body can react with the toxic components in the venom, thereby neutralizing its toxicity.
Finally, the spider's digestive system also has a biological barrier that prevents toxic substances from entering its body cells.
Not to mention that the spider in front of him was a truly extraordinary creature, and these abilities were predicted to be more powerful than imagined.
But Venom and the Bull are just not worth the cost at all. If they can provide any help in the next battle, it will be a huge profit!
"So the effect is so weak? Prepare for a strong attack!"
…
"Why are we still the two leading the charge?"
Familiar helicopter, familiar duo.
The co-pilot complained to the driver next to him with a helpless look on his face.
"I want to retire! I don't want to do this anymore!"
"That's what I thought, but those guys paid too much money!"
"What can I do? Believe me! At least this time we know the spider's specific attack range, and we will definitely not make mistakes again!"
"This is the third time..."
"Don't worry! We two are very lucky!"
"Your comfort will only make me feel worse!"
"Look at the bright side. Don't you want to retire with a large sum of money and return to your hometown to live a carefree life? You know, the money those guys promised is enough for us to squander for the rest of our lives!"
"You have to be alive to spend it..."
Amid the noise, in addition to the two of them, there were several helicopters parked and hovering not far away.
Based on previous experience, they accurately maintain a safe distance from the spider's attack range.
Following an order, the machine gun mounted on the belly of the helicopter began to spin like a violent storm, and dense bullets poured down like a tide, ruthlessly tearing apart the tranquility on the ground.
Da da da da!
The bullets were like a swarm of angry bees, stirring up waves on the fallen leaves on the ground, and then ruthlessly pounced on the spider.
Da da!
However, when the bullet collided with the spider's carapace, only a crisp echo was heard.
The spider seemed disturbed by the sudden force, and it tapped the hit part lightly with its thick spider legs.
Poke...poke...
Did you seem to feel something knocking on your shell just now?
"Damn! This shell is really hard!" The pilot cursed in the cockpit.
"Attention everyone, switch to cannon attack!" The commander's voice spread to every helicopter through the radio waves.
A machine gun is one of the auxiliary weapons of an armed helicopter. It is usually installed on the cabin door or under the short wing and is used to strafing ground targets.
The aircraft gun is the main weapon of the armed helicopter, mainly used to attack soft targets such as ground personnel and vehicles.
One is for people, the other for vehicles, so their power is naturally incomparable.
As expected, the use of the aircraft cannon was very effective.
The shell continued to sputter flames, and under the power of the aircraft cannon, the shell began to dent.
pain……
The spider web hammock was instantly torn apart by a variety of bullets, and the spider that fell to the ground began to move quickly by shaking its limbs to avoid being tracked by the bullets.
In the command room, the officer breathed a sigh of relief that the weapon was able to cause considerable damage to the spider.
It seems that these extraordinary guys, although they exceed the specifications individually, can still be suppressed by human thermal weapons.
Although there is suspicion that the Air Force is bullying the infantry this time.
"Why not just use the naval guns?"
Finally, the officer heard the question from Minister Miki next to him, looked at Minister Miki in confusion, and then showed a subtle expression.
"This is our first direct confrontation with a supernatural being. With such a precious opportunity, shouldn't we use as many weapons as possible to detect and test the specific defense capabilities of the supernatural being and gain experience for future battles?"
The officer's words left Minister Miki speechless.
"Then I'll leave this place to you!"
Minister Miki quickly turned and left.
The officer glanced at Minister Miki and he knew that outsiders like these would only cause trouble if they stayed here.
He picked up the intercom on the table and gave orders quickly.
"Very good! Keep attacking!"
As the spider dodged, it looked at the flies dancing in the sky, and the strange energy in its body gathered in the spinner.
Puff!!!
In an instant, a large number of silk threads attacked the helicopter in the air, but the distance was limited. The helicopter only moved slightly upwards and avoided all the attacking spider silk.
The duo showed a hint of pride in their eyes when they saw this.
Last time, they needed to move forward to carry out the communication mission! This time, they are fully prepared!
Polar reversal!!!
The spider looked at the flies flying in the air, and its legs were digging the ground restlessly. It suddenly recalled the time when it was still a little spider a few days ago.
When I was a child, I often hid in corners cautiously, and any creature around me could cause devastating damage to me.
Until that warm hand appeared like a ray of sunshine shining into its world...
For the first time, I felt a world different from the dark corner.
For the first time, I felt a sense of security.
For the first time, I felt the concept of "self".
God... where are you...
it hurts……
Suddenly the spider seemed to hear a sigh in its mind, and the familiar sound made it feel refreshed.
【Why……】
