Chapter 241: The Rebellion of the Sky Spiders
As expected, none of the special recruits of Sunset College were weak. Although they had no way to kill the spiders, they used various methods and abilities to deal with them, so there was no danger.
However, as more and more spider webs appeared around them, the range of movement for them and their companion pets was restricted, and things became a little difficult.
Four or five spiders were spewing silk in the Four Seasons Garden. Shiny silk could be seen everywhere. Some companion pets had already been stuck on the silk and couldn't struggle out.
An Jing stabbed forward with her sword. The previous battle had already made her see the spider's weakness clearly. When she stabbed forward with her sword, the sword light was like lightning, instantly nailing a spider to the ground.
It was the first time that Zhou Wen saw An Jing fighting seriously. Her swordsmanship was extremely violent, and each sword strike was accompanied by a dazzling light, as if even the void was pierced.
Zhou Wen immediately recognized the Qi Jue used by An Jing, which should be the Sun Shooting Jue without a doubt. Her swordsmanship was also somewhat unusual. It seemed simple, but each sword strike made people feel extremely gorgeous, and the sword light was as strong as a brilliant divine light.
An Jing's strength seems to be no worse than Lan Shi's, but she and Lan Shi have completely different styles.
Lan Shi's skills are unparalleled. Although she is quiet, each of her strikes is like thunderbolt. If she can kill her opponent with one strike, she will never strike again.
"My defeat was not unfair." With An Jing's strength, Zhou Wen at that time was indeed no match for her.
Seeing that An Jing was able to deal with the spiders in the Four Seasons Garden, Zhou Wen rushed out of the Garden directly. He saw that there were indeed spiders outside spitting spider silk. One of his classmates was stuck on the spider silk, and the spider was crawling towards him.
Zhou Wen raised his left palm like a knife and chopped it out with a star-cutting sword energy. The sword energy turned into a thin line and actually cut the spider directly in half. The strength was still not enough and rushed forward to chop the spider into two halves.
The classmate was still in shock and before he could say thank you, Zhou Wen rushed over.
There are many powerful people in the academy. In addition to the epic mentors, there are also many students who can kill spiders. The spiders in the academy were quickly brought under control.
"Attention all students... Attention all students... Students who have the ability to kill spiders... Please enter the city immediately to help the army kill spiders... This is not a drill... I say again... This is not a drill... All students who participate in hunting spiders will receive credits as a reward..." The broadcast soon sounded again.
In fact, Zhou Wen had already run to the school gate, riding on the mutant lotus ant, and rushed out of the school directly.
The situation in the city was indeed much worse than that in school. Zhou Wen could see spider webs woven everywhere between the buildings from a distance. The city seemed to have turned into a spider forest, with spider webs everywhere.
Many citizens have been stuck in the spider web, and many have been killed. The army is firing everywhere with submachine guns, but it seems that the effect is very general. It is possible to kill a spider only by shooting many bullets continuously.
Moreover, those spiders were too agile and protected by spider webs. When the bullets hit them, they got stuck in the webs and the effect was very limited.
A mother holding her child was entangled in spider silk and hung in the air. The mother and child were suspended between the buildings and watched the spider pounce on them.
The soldiers below had bloodshot eyes, but they didn't dare to shoot again. The spider was too close to the mother and child. If they shot, they might hit both of them by mistake.
When the spider was about to bite the mother and child, a figure flashed across the sky, and the spider silk and the spider were split in half. The mother and child who fell were also caught by the figure, flew into the air and landed safely on the ground.
"Are you a student of Sunset College?" Soldiers came to rescue the mother and child and guided them to shelter. A soldier asked Zhou Wen.
"Yes." Zhou Wen nodded slightly.
"Please go and support Zhougong Temple. There is a plague of spiders there, and they are spreading outward." The soldier said to Zhou Wen.
"Okay." Zhou Wen responded and rode the mutant lotus ant directly towards Zhougong Temple.
The deity enshrined in the Zhougong Temple is Ji Dan, the younger brother of King Wu of Zhou, Ji Fa. He assisted King Wu in defeating King Zhou twice, and created rituals and music, and was revered by later generations.
Zhou Wen rushed forward, killed several spiders on the way, and rescued some citizens.
However, on the road, many citizens were seen turned into corpses, as if they had been sucked dry, hanging on the spider webs of high-rise buildings.
"A creature that has broken the ban has caused such a disaster. If the major dimensional fields are really unable to trap those dimensional creatures, what will the world become?" Zhou Wen felt that his power was so insignificant.
The battle in the sky was still going on, and several epic warriors rushed over and fought with the sky spider in the sky, but the situation looked very bad. No one could pose a threat to the sky spider at all. Instead, some of their companion pets had been stuck in the spider silk and could not get out no matter how hard they struggled.
"Zhou Wen, are you going to Zhougong Temple too?" Zhong Ziya came over from one direction and happened to meet Zhou Wen.
The thin sword in his hand was incredibly fast. Wherever the sword passed, the spider was immediately pierced through the center of its eyebrows by the sword light, leaving only a wound as small as a pinhole, but the spider was already dead.
"A soldier just said that support is needed there." Zhou Wen said as he cut through the spider web.
"Me too, let's go together." Zhong Ziya rushed over with a sword in hand.
Zhou Wen followed and soon met a few classmates who had been invited by the military to support the Zhougong Temple.
The epic leaders of the military rushed to the sky to fight with the Sky Spider. If the Sky Spider was not dealt with quickly, the small spiders it would spit out would continue to flow, and the spiders below could only be left to ordinary soldiers and some legendary officers.
Students like Zhou Wen from Sunset College, if they choose to join the army after graduation, will become grassroots officers and will not have to start as soldiers.
Normally when students are together, it is difficult to tell who is truly strong, but when they are actually fighting, it becomes clear. Some students are so powerful that Zhou Wen has never seen them in the school rankings.
Someone like Zhong Ziya is definitely not weaker than Wei Ge, the student union president, and may even be stronger, but he has no ranking.
The brother and sister of the Wu family were also very scary, which made Zhou Wen sigh that Sunset Academy was really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
When they were almost at Zhougong Temple, Zhou Wen saw Hui Haifeng leading his men in a fierce battle with a group of spiders in front, while the soldiers around him were guarding the front line and firing crazily.
I didn’t see the Zhougong Temple, but the spiders in front were so numerous that they were hard to count. They were crawling out in dense crowds and I had no idea how many there were.
"This city has turned into a spider's nest." Zhong Ziya said.
"Stop talking nonsense and come to support us quickly. We can't hold on any longer." Hui Haifeng shouted.
Zhou Wen, Zhong Ziya and several other students rushed forward and blocked the swarm of spiders that was like a tide. They killed them without knowing how many spiders they had killed, but the swarm of spiders still rushed out from the direction of Zhougong Temple.
