Chapter 53
The light-related ability was activated again, and Xiao Yihong's arms began to tremble, but she still gritted her teeth and continued to release it.
Zhu Ke swallowed a few pills, a hemostatic pill, a universal detoxification pill, and a Fukangning pill.
His wounds healed quickly, and he returned to the battle, fighting the giant mutant spider together with Li Meng.
Xiao Yihong also continued to rescue the next teammate. If you look closely, you can see that her body is shaking violently and her special power is about to be exhausted.
With the help of pills and healing powers, the hunter team did not suffer too much damage, and the same was true for the mutant spiders. Apart from a few broken arms and legs, they were still strong.
Zhou Xiaohua was beginning to run out of energy, and he had already fed himself pills several times in a row.
If nothing unexpected happened, the mutant spider's strength would have reached level 6. He didn't know why a level 6 monster existed, but the facts were before him.
He had never encountered a level 6 mutant beast before, so he was at a disadvantage in the fight.
The more cruel fact is that these mutant spiders seem to have some intelligence. They fail to deal with these mid- and high-level psychics, so they begin to change their strategy and deal with those weaker low-level and auxiliary psychics.
For example, Xiao Yihong and Wang Xing, one of them is a healing type and the other is a space type. Although their levels have reached the intermediate level, their actual combat capabilities cannot compare with these hunters who live on the tip of a knife.
They were treating a mid-level psychic with their heads down and concentrating, and danger happened at that moment.
Zhou Xiaohua held the sixth-level mutant spider tightly, and neither side could gain any advantage. It suddenly sprayed out a strong spider silk, which circled around Zhou Xiaohua's head and shot straight towards Xiao Yihong and the others.
It moved so fast that by the time Zhou Xiaohua noticed it, the spider silk had only touched the two men's brows.
Looking at the figure that had been buried in his heart for many years, Zhou Xiaohua's throat became dry and he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Yihong! Run!"
But Xiao Yihong is just a healer, and her supernatural powers have been exhausted. How can she escape from the sharp spider silk that she has worked so hard to kill?
Not only that, Wang Xing was also exhausted after fighting with a level 2 mutant spider.
The two turned around when they heard the sound, and looked at the spider silk in front of them with a cold glow, their pupils suddenly widened.
In his eyes, the spider silk was getting closer and closer, heading straight for his face.
They can’t hide anymore, they can’t hide anymore!
Zhou Xiaohua felt a sudden sharp pain in his heart, as if something important along with his flesh and blood was being violently pulled out. He stared in the direction of Xiao Yihong, his eyes bloodshot.
Everyone saw this horrific scene, but they were all trapped by the mutant spiders in front of them. There was no chance to rescue them, and no time to rescue them.
Just when everyone thought they would see a ball of minced meat, a miracle happened.
A man wearing a pointed black hat rushed out from nowhere. He stood behind Xiao Yihong and Wang Xing and swung his palm towards the spider silk.
The extremely hard spider silk retreated violently as if it had been hit by a shock wave, and then miraculously broke into pieces.
He was able to break the spider silk that Zhou Xiaohua couldn't resist with just one palm. Everyone's eyes changed immediately. Maybe they could escape today!
The man in the black hat turned his head to look at Wang Xing, and when he saw that he was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned back.
He looked at the giant mutant spider that was spitting out spider silk, and it was as cold as frost and snow.
This damn guy actually dared to attack his supply bag. He couldn’t tolerate it anymore!
The man in the black hat instantly moved in front of the mutant spider and punched the spider in the face with one fist.
The mutant spider's mouthparts opened wide, with an exaggerated degree of stretch, as if mocking this person for daring to fight against a rock with an egg and dreaming of defeating it with his fragile fists.
The fist approached rapidly, and a second before it touched the mutant spider, it turned into an iron fist that was magnified several times, and with a sharp wind, it knocked the spider's mouthparts crooked.
The mutant spider seemed a little confused, and before it could react it was knocked all over the place by the iron fist.
Zhou Xiaohua stepped aside and stared at the scene blankly. He could only use his superpowers. This was the first time he had seen someone merge his body and superpowers into one.
After more than a dozen punches, the mutant spider was dying. Half of its compound eyes were missing, and the remaining four were detached from their original positions and hung loosely on its head. Its six legs were badly broken, and even its huge abdomen was pierced into a hole by Zhou Xiaohua's sharp knife, and the organs inside were spilled all over the ground.
It's not working!
Before Zhou Xiaohua could say thank you, the man in the black hat pointed towards Zhu Ke.
Zhou Xiaohua nodded gratefully, then joined Zhu Ke's team to continue fighting.
Both of them are top-level psychics in their respective classes. Working together to deal with a sixth-level monster is enough, although not more than enough.
An hour later, the last mutant spider was knocked to the ground. Everyone was covered in blood, and some people even fell to the ground from exhaustion.
The group of 1/2 level mutant plants watched the whole process and were so frightened that they dared not move and turned into their original state and pretended to be dead.
At this moment, Zhou Xiaohua and Zhu Ke began to feel hot all over, as if there was an unreleased energy in their bodies running around in their meridians. The energy burst out from the top of the head, passing through the Taiyang acupoint, Baihui acupoint, Jianjing acupoint, and Jugu acupoint, and slowly condensed to the Dantian.
The two of them felt extremely tormented, as if they were being swept up by an endless gale, or floating in huge waves.
Xiao Yihong, as a healing person, was the first to react. Her eyes lit up, excited but also worried: "The two captains are going to be upgraded, protectors!"
This was a shocking statement. Zhu Ke was at the middle level, and everyone understood that he could be promoted to the high level, but Zhou Xiaohua was already at the high level, could he be promoted any further?
However, when they looked at the two level 6 mutant spiders lying on the ground, all their puzzles were answered.
If mutant beasts can continue to upgrade, why can't humans!
Everyone jumped up from the ground, quickly formed a circle around the two people, and looked around cautiously.
As the deputy captain second only to the two captains, Xiao Yihong had very clear ideas and she made arrangements calmly and without interruption.
"Xiao Meng, go send a signal to the stationed troops in Zhongwei and ask them to come to support us."
After hearing this, Li Meng immediately pulled out two fireworks from his waist bag and activated his fire ability to ignite them.
The fireworks rose into the sky, condensed into a strange symbol, and then exploded instantly. She set off two fireworks in a row before returning to the team to continue protecting the law.
"Wang Xing, collect the supplies. The two captains will leave immediately after they wake up."
After not receiving a reply from Wang Xing, Xiao Yihong asked again, "Wang Xing?"
Still no one responded. Everyone looked at each other and searched for each other in the team, but there was no sign of Wang Xing in the team.
Not only that, apart from Wang Xing, the man in the black hat who only appeared once was also missing.
Li Meng's face turned cold, and he boldly guessed, "I was wondering how he could be so kind. Turns out he's here to rob people, what a bastard!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt a frown in their hearts. As everyone knew, Wang Xing was a mid-level space ability user in the team. All the supplies they brought from the shelter and all the prey they had caught in the past few days were stored in that space.
After working so hard for so long, it’s gone just like that. It’s heartbreaking.
For a moment, everyone began to discuss privately.
"What should I do? All these days have been wasted."
"Yes, why didn't he stay here and get snatched away by someone?"
"It's really terrible that no one was assigned to protect such an important person."
Suspicion and dissatisfaction began to spread, and everyone's emotions were driven in an unpredictable direction by the sudden disappearance of this space ability user.
Xiao Yihong frowned and shouted, "Shut up!"
As soon as the words came out, the air suddenly became quiet. Everyone held their breath and dared not speak.
Everyone knew that the deputy captain of the Flying Tigers was a gentle and easy-going person, but no one expected that she would be so powerful when she got angry.
Upon hearing this, the Flying Tigers and Zhu Ke's mercenary team stood by her, giving her confidence.
Although everyone was dissatisfied, they kept their heads down and said nothing because they were afraid of the strength of this group of people.
Then Xiao Yihong ordered, "Xiao Li, go and collect the supplies."
Xiao Li is another space ability user in the team. Although he is only low-level, after each transfer of supplies, his space is still empty, and these spiders can still fit in if they squeeze together.
Xiao Li obediently came to the mutant spider and began to harvest supplies.
Xiao Yihong looked around calmly and said coldly, "Captain Zhou is a man of his word. He will definitely not give you less than what he promised you!"
Suddenly some people began to feel guilty and tried to avoid Xiao Yihong's gaze.
In the shelter, Zhou Xiaohua's character is well known to everyone, and in this mutant spider battle, he could have escaped without caring about their lives, but he fought with all his strength for the lives of this group of people.
The wounds of all sizes on his body are proof of this, and now everyone is fighting among themselves at the critical moment of his promotion. They are worse than pigs and dogs!
Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Meng approached Xiao Yihong and whispered, "Sister Yihong, what about Wang Xing? Should we still save Wang Xing?"
Xiao Yihong was conflicted. Wang Xing was an indispensable teammate. They had been together for seven or eight years and he was both a friend and a family member. There was no way she would abandon him.
But how can we save him?
The two captains are the most powerful in the team, but they are in the critical period of upgrading. It is not known whether they will be unconscious or awake after the upgrade. Even if they are awake, their disordered breathing will inevitably cause endless troubles if they are not adjusted properly.
As for the black-hatted man who robbed people, he saved people at the critical moment and helped kill a level 6 mutant beast, which allowed them to start to turn things around and survive. So it seems that he is not a bad guy.
Xiao Yihong exhaled and said in a deep voice, "Don't rescue them for now. Once the captains of the two teams wake up, we'll leave."
Li Meng nodded without saying anything. Now that the captain was unconscious, he should obey the deputy captain. This was a disciplined hunter team and he had to obey.
A team of hunters surrounded in the dangerous forest had just killed a third-level alien beast when they saw the alarm of fireworks.
Everyone looked at each other and immediately headed towards the fireworks.
"Everyone is in trouble, go and help them."
Ye Qing, who was far away inside the shelter, also received a strange message.
[Ding~ Triggering the side quest.]
