Chapter 80 What kind of life is the Twin-tailed Demon King?
The spider in front of him had long, slender legs, a white horizontal crescent pattern on its head, and a pitch-black body with faintly visible short, dense hairs. In the dimly lit underground, this creature, which grew at the point of human fear, was enough to arouse the most extreme fear in the heart.
But at this moment, the ferocious-looking spider chewed the captured prey quickly, and then couldn't help but make a choking sound.
"Why are you still looking at me? I'm so scared..."
Chen Shuang: I woke up suddenly and heard the spider saying it was scared.
The spider mustered up the courage to eat for a while, then took a peek ahead.
The strange "spiders" that had never been seen before did not leave, but stared at it.
The spider, locked in place by three pairs of eyes, froze up, and suddenly even the food in its mouth lost its flavor.
“So scared, so scared…”
It looked at the half-remaining meal reluctantly, stretched out its two front legs and pushed the food out.
The spider said cautiously, "Don't eat me. These are for you."
The elf with half of its twintails still left shook its legs under everyone's gaze, raised its head with a strong will, and the long beard on its head shook as well.
Chen Shuang: He is still alive after all this.
The hands that spend money on pesticides are starting to get excited again.
Seeing Spider continue to pass the ball forward, she immediately said, "No need!"
She took a deep breath and steadied her voice, "This is your prey, just keep it for yourself."
"Really"
The spider hesitated for a moment and said, "If it's not enough, I can catch a few more for you."
Chen Shuang: Don’t be so hospitable in a place like this.
She immediately shook her head: "Really not!"
"We're just passing through. We're not a threat to you, so don't give in to us."
"I see."
The spider carefully observed for a while, seemingly confirming that the creature in front of it had no intention of competing for food, and then relaxed a little. After quickly finishing its meal, it looked up at Chen Shuang and whispered, "You are such a good spider."
“I’m not a spider,” Shen Shuang shook her head, “I’m a human, from the outside world.”
"outside world?"
The spider, who had never left the ground since its birth, was puzzled and curious. It hid behind a crack in the wall and peeked out: "People from the outside world, are you also here to defeat the devil and seize the throne?"
Chen Shuang heard a new word: "Big Devil?"
The god standing next to the priest glanced at Simijia, his eyes suggesting: Who is this great devil?
Simijia looked serious, shook his head slowly, and gave a look back: He died early, I don’t know.
Chen Shuang: ...How can we still chat?
Wait, why can she understand private conversations without any obstacles?
Could it be that I have unknowingly shared the same train of thought with these two people?
Chen Shuang: I began to doubt my mental state.
She shook her head, shaking off her messy thoughts, and turned her gaze back to the giant spider in front of her. She said calmly, "Yes, you are here to defeat the big devil too."
"certainly!"
Hearing the same purpose, the spider lost its previous fear. It organized its words childishly and said excitedly, "I heard that the big devil has a huge body, claws and tentacles, a hard shell, and a very fierce temper."
The spider's chelicerae next to its mouthparts seemed to move, and soon the sound of smacking lips could be heard from space. It said eagerly, "It must be delicious."
Chen Shuang was silent for a while, then took out the magic crystal from her backpack and checked it again.
Very good, 500 magic crystals are equivalent to 50 draws, which is just enough for this golden guarantee. Just in case, keep it in mind.
Huge, tentacles, shell, it is hard not to think too much when these adjectives are put together. In addition to the one just mentioned, there seems to be an advanced version of the twin-tailed elf.
She felt that insecticide was essential today.
Chen Shuang organized her words: "Where is the big devil you mentioned now?"
The spider said, "It's underground."
It stretched out its forelimbs and pointed to the depths of darkness. "It's square in there, and the walls are very hard. I can't bite them."
Simijia crossed his arms and said proudly, "That's the alchemical material I chose from over 5,000 raw materials. If you can chew it, I'll write my name upside down."
The spider nodded half-knowingly.
"The Great Demon King is very powerful. He and his many followers bit through the wall and are now entrenched in the center of the underground. He is very vigilant," the spider said regretfully, "I can't eat him."
Chen Shuang looked at Simijia, and the originally lively expression on his face gradually stiffened. He seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter.
He looked at Spider, his voice trembling: "You said that my control room was taken by that group... that group..."
Obviously, the basic control room has been occupied by the Twintail Demon King and other Twintails.
The god patted his right shoulder and said gloatingly, "Carmis."
Chen Shuang patted his left shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, at least the control room hasn't collapsed."
"Boom—"
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard from the darkness deep in the crisscrossing wires. The echoes intertwined, and the shocking cracking sound accompanied by the hissing sound of insect legs passing by reached everyone's ears.
She immediately stopped talking and looked deeper into the passage. Continuous loud noises came from the darkness, and seemed to be getting more intense.
Chen Shuang: “…”
It really collapsed.
With her luck, she can just buy lottery tickets and make a fortune.
She tugged at God's sleeve and said directly, "Let's go over and take a look."
Their destination was the control room, so if something went wrong they should investigate.
The god's eyes flickered slightly, and he opened his palm as if nothing had happened and held the hand of his own priest. Warmth and softness were transmitted together, making the god's expression soften.
His face was serious, but his voice was unusually gentle: "It's dangerous here, follow me closely."
Simijia: “…”
As far as he knows, the biggest danger here is you.
Even with his puppet body, he was shocked by this shameless behavior, and couldn't help showing a hint of disgust on his face.
He took two steps forward, motioning the spider to follow, then turned back to look at the god and deliberately lengthened his tone: "Follow~close~to~me~"
god:"……"
I really want to hit someone.
The restless arm was held down by a gentle force, and then he was led forward. The god obediently followed the priest, looked down at his folded hands, and then his mood became happy again.
Shinto said, "Yes, let's follow him quickly. He has lived here alone for so long, built such a huge underground structure by himself, and is responsible for so many affairs by himself. He must be very familiar with this place."
God said "one" so many times, shook his folded hands slightly in a provocative manner, and emphasized "we".
He said, "We just need to follow closely."
Chen Shuang: It was as if I had experienced a melee silently.
However, with a guide leading the way, their advancement speed was accelerated to the extreme.
With Spider, who was extremely familiar with the terrain, leading the way, and Simijia's familiarity with the passage mechanisms, they quickly walked out of the complicated routes and came to a metal gate.
"This is the basic control room."
Simijia stopped in front of the door, examined the runes on the surface, and then reached out and applied his hand to the surface of the door.
The runes on the silver-white metal door changed with his movements. Starting from the palm of his hand, the lines extended, and the light spots along the way gradually lit up, briefly illuminating the dark space, but soon, the lit runes went out in an instant, and darkness returned to his eyes.
Simijia shook his head: "No, the damage is severe and the door cannot be opened by normal means."
The god pulled out the pitch-black sword he had picked up in the warehouse earlier: "Then let's try an unusual method."
With one strike of the sword, sparks flew everywhere, but the metal door remained motionless, standing steadily in front of the few people, achieving the highest level of mocking effect without any damage.
Simijia sighed: "The sword and the door are made of the same material. Neither can do anything to the other."
The god held a long sword in his hand, and the terrifying dark power wrapped around the sword of fate, bringing about a riot of elements. He swung the sword, and the powerful tearing hurricane did not affect anyone, and hit the door in front of him accurately.
A huge buzzing sound was heard from underground. The god instantly raised his hands to cover the priest's ears, waiting quietly for the buzzing sound to fade away.
He shook his head, forcibly suppressing the dizziness that was spreading through his mind. He looked at the door that was still intact and asked, "What's going on?"
Simijia released the hands that were covering his ears and said, "Even divine power won't work. I told you before that there's a suppression device here. Don't let your priest hold you when you faint."
The god suddenly let out a hiss, his expression filled with distress as if to say "Why didn't I think of that?". When he set his sights on the black-haired priest again, there was an eagerness in his heart that he couldn't hide.
Chen Shuang: It’s all written on my boss’ face.
It seemed that the human priest's gaze was too obvious, and the God finally regained some of his sense of shame from her gaze. He coughed and looked at Simijia seriously: "What should we do now?"
Simijia touched his chin. "I remember there are still quite a few special alchemical bombs in the warehouse that can blow open the door, but it's a bit difficult to control the amount. I need to calculate it..."
"Don't count it."
Simicah looked up at the black-haired priest who spoke.
Chen Shuang shifted her gaze and set her eyes on the corridor not far away: "Maybe we can enter from the side."
Didn’t that twin-tailed devil just chew out a passage?
*
"hiss……"
A large spider with a crescent moon on its forehead shuttled back and forth in the darkness. After biting a few meals to death, it led the people behind it and quietly came in through the gap.
Huge holes appeared on the silver-white metal wall, and the gaps were jagged, as if they had been gnawed by some creature.
Simijia covered his chest. Even though he had no heart now, he felt extremely heartbroken: "My control room, my walls, my mechanisms..."
Chen Shuang was surrounded by a magical glow, hiding their traces, so the control room, or the Twin Ponytails' Nest, had not been disturbed.
There's a saying that goes, when you find a cockroach in your home, it proves that four generations of the family have lived together.
She looked around.
There were quite a few twin-tailed elves here, and their huge size and large number even aroused some instincts, causing Chen Shuang to clench her fists uncontrollably.
The god sensed her strangeness and gently patted the back of her hand: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Chen Shuang: How can I explain this instinctive urge to hit him hard with my slippers?
She shook her head: "I'm fine."
Having reached her limit both mentally and physically, Chen Shuang expressionlessly opened the card pool and threw all the magic crystals that she had prepared long ago into it.
Chen Shuang smiled: Xiao 1, without the insecticide, I may not survive today. I will definitely find a way to take you with me before I leave.
147: It’s a threat, it must be a threat.
The deep pool water in front of her was shaking slightly, and the pale hand that had not been seen for a long time made a heart shape to her, a gesture of assurance, with a sense of grandeur that everything was under its control.
Chen Shuang: ...even more worried.
The pale hand quickly moved, and the huge gem hanging from the palm of its hand swayed near the pool water. The next moment, both of them fell into the water together.
Just when she was distracted drawing a card, a loud bang exploded in front of her eyes, and Shen Shuang immediately became alert.
The god beside her took a step forward and stood in front of her, blocking all the smoke and wind that were blowing towards her.
There was something in that darkness.
Shenwei frowned, and with his backhand, he swung the sword in his hand like an arrow and shot it straight into the darkness. In the thick smoke and dust, the clear sound of metal clashing could be heard.
The sword returned along the same path, with even more ferocious force. The god stretched out his hand to knock the sword away. The sword of fate, whose trajectory had been changed, plunged straight into the stone wall behind it, and stopped only when the hilt was embedded in the wall.
God lowered his eyes.
Quite powerful strength.
Intermittent sounds gradually emerged from the billowing smoke and dust.
"You can live, spiders can live, iron plates and mechanisms can live, but why must I die?"
The giant twin-tailed demon king emerged from the swirling black smoke, its long tentacles rising high in anger. It said with a strong sense of resentment: "Is it because I'm a cockroach?"
The twin-tailed devil said angrily: "You don't even know what life is!"
The space suddenly fell silent.
Chen Shuang looked around and found that the people around her had fallen silent, as if they were lost in some thoughts about life.
Chen Shuang: “…” That makes some sense.
Although, you are a mantis.
Chen Shuang: No, no, no.
She quickly opened the card pool interface and waited for all the magic crystals to be settled.
Just as Shen Shuang was waiting, a soft laugh suddenly came from her ears, followed by a light breeze rising from her side.
"Oh."
The god drew out the broken sword he had repaired and walked forward step by step: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you."
He said contemptuously: "If you don't die, then I will die."
Chen Shuang: It has to be you.
