Seeing that everyone had calmed down, Xiang Yuping continued, "You all came here to kill spiders, how can we panic? If we don't take down these spiders now, who knows if they will run to the base and eat us when they have nothing to eat. We must eliminate them before they become too strong."
"Don't panic, stick to the plan, and don't wander around on your own, that would be very dangerous."
While Xiang Yuping was still trying to calm everyone down, Li Xiao asked Cheng Shaolin a question.
"Brother, them?"
Cheng Shaolin looked around and answered Li Xiao softly, "It's not surprising that spiders lay eggs after so long."
"Oh, that's true. But that makes it even more difficult."
Cheng Shaolin nodded. "That's for sure. One is hard to deal with, let alone a group. And these people," he said, glancing at the group around him, "their disunity doubles the difficulty."
Li Xiao followed his gaze and looked around. The people chattering around Xiang Yuping were still unaware that danger had already arrived.
Looking at the residential building in front of her that was covered in spider silk, Li Xiao felt a sense of panic.
This has never happened before.
Brother, I'm not feeling well.
Cheng Shaolin looked at Li Xiao's gloomy face and asked, "What's wrong?" Then, after thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Li Xiao glanced at him, but the unease in her heart still lingered and did not leave.
The further you go in, the more you'll see things covered in spider silk.
The building, the courtyard wall, the window frames, the trash cans, and even the ground, including the trash on the ground, were all covered with a layer of snow-white cobwebs.
The spider silk is now frozen by the wind and snow, but it can still be seen through the transparent ice.
A building covered in spider silk is quite different from a building frozen in ice and snow.
Even though they are both white, there are still differences between different shades of white.
Some of the frozen parts are transparent, making it easy to see what's inside.
That's how people can see the building covered in spider silk and realize that this place has long been a spider paradise.
"Brother, isn't the weather very favorable right now?" Li Xiao asked, looking around at the houses on both sides.
"I don't know. There might be an impact, but I don't know how much."
Li Xiao also understood that defeating them would not be easy.
She thought for a moment, then said to Tian Tian and Zheng Yongnian, "You two stay with me and don't go too far forward. Also, keep an eye on that group over there, in case they launch a sneak attack."
"good."
Tian Tian and Zheng Yongnian spoke in unison.
Cheng Shaolin told Li Xiao and the others to be careful and pay attention to their surroundings before moving to the front of the group.
Seeing Cheng Shaolin leave, Tian Tian and Zheng Yongnian simultaneously moved closer to Li Xiao.
They stood on either side of Li Xiao, facing different directions.
Yu Yanbin followed Cheng Shaolin to the front, while Meng Yang, Xiao Peng, Qiu Fengyu, and Shao Jie did not follow.
They stood discreetly in four directions, which allowed them to better observe their surroundings and be wary of the movements of others nearby.
They were all very careful, as there might be a tough battle ahead today, so they had to be cautious about everything they said.
Cheng Shaolin and Yu Yanbin moved to the front of the group, getting closer to the spider's nest.
If it hadn't snowed and frozen, the spider nest in front of them would have been an even more visibly terrifying sight.
Through the frozen ice, the spider webs around us were not very clear.
Spider silk is white, and so is the ice layer. In some places, the ice layer is not even transparent, making it difficult to see the spider silk attached to the ground, walls, and everything around us.
It's like the ground; even with snow up to your thighs, you still can't see what's underneath.
Now all you can see is a thick layer of spider silk clinging to the walls and roof.
Everyone was feeling uneasy and somewhat worried.
We haven't seen a single spider yet, so we don't know what's going on.
Cheng Shaolin gave Yu Yanbin a look, and Yu Yanbin understood immediately.
In situations where the situation is unclear, preserving oneself is the most important thing.
Neither of them were fools. Looking at the group of superhumans around them who were almost trembling with fear, their hearts sank.
"Everyone be careful, observe first, don't act rashly. We haven't seen any mutated animals yet, Fox, everyone stay alert."
In addition to warning everyone, Xiang Yuping also encouraged them.
Li Xiao and the others were positioned towards the back. None of them were offensive ability users, so they didn't need to fight on the front lines.
There was another group of people standing around them, and it was unclear whether they were as weak as the group.
Li Xiao gave Tian Tian and Zheng Yongnian a look, signaling them to be aware of their surroundings.
Tian Tian and Zheng Yongnian were both very cautious, standing close to Li Xiao.
Shao Jie and his group were right in front of them, so they weren't nervous. Being with their teammates made them feel very secure.
The atmosphere was very strange. They were not far from the apartment building where the spider lived, less than 200 meters away, but the building seemed very quiet, and they did not see any spiders.
The quieter it is, the more uneasy it makes people feel.
Just as everyone was feeling uneasy, a rustling sound came from the frozen residential building.
Everyone immediately became alert.
"Everyone be careful!" Xiang Yuping shouted.
Needless to say, everyone immediately went on alert, nervously watching the source of the sound.
At this moment, everyone felt that time was passing very slowly.
It felt like a long time had passed, but actually only two minutes had gone by.
Just as everyone was feeling uneasy, a spider crawled out of the residential building.
This spider was huge, as big as a washbasin.
Everyone stared in shock as the giant spider crawled out of the building, their mouths agape.
"This, this is a spider? And it's so big?!"
"My goodness, this spider is huge!"
…………
While everyone was still marveling at it, the spider had already crawled towards the crowd.
When they saw that the spider was crawling towards them, they began to feel fear.
Some people were already backing away in fear, which startled the spider, making it move even faster.
Someone, using some kind of supernatural ability, threw a fireball at the spider.
The spider was hit squarely by the fireball and immediately cried out in alarm.
The scream startled everyone, because the sound was so shrill that it was unbearable for their ears.
Li Xiao and the others covered their ears, but it was too late; their ears were already ringing from the vibrations, and their hearts were pounding from the shock.
After the spider screamed, the fireball completely engulfed it.
Within moments, the spider, the size of a basin, was destroyed by the ball of supernatural fire.
After a moment of silence, cheers erupted.
Seeing that the fireball could destroy the spider, everyone seemed to have hope of defeating the spider, and their fighting spirit soared.
