Chapter 26 Hunting Time
It was a new day, and the members of the Salt Lake Tribe, led by Zhou Xu, were still hunting outside the Black Forest.
In fact, they had been like this every day before that.
Their actions continuously squeezed the survival resources of the big spiders in this black forest, forcing the big spiders to frequently take the initiative and launch attacks towards them.
This day, too...
"Big spider, that big spider is coming!!"
Along with the shouting, the tribe member who was responsible for keeping an eye on the giant spider was now running towards them.
Now that they think about it, the giant spider was able to kill them directly when it first appeared because the tribe member who was responsible for keeping watch made too much noise and attracted the giant spider.
Of course, it is no use dwelling on this issue now.
When Zhou Xu heard the call, he was still a little nervous, but he was very calm overall.
"Why are you panicking? We are here to kill it this time!"
Zhou Xu's words made the surrounding tribal members instantly find their backbone.
"Send the signal and proceed according to the original plan."
Almost at the same time he said this, the main target of their trip appeared at the end of his sight.
Although they had fought against the giant spider many times in order to compete for the limited food in the area, the thing that could not be changed was that this ferocious monster always gave them a huge sense of oppression! The eight spider legs moved together, and the giant spider moved as flexibly as ever. Its rapidly approaching posture doubled the pressure on everyone!
"Prepare your slings. Follow the drill and start the attack!"
An order was issued, and the tribal members who had been deployed in various parts of the Black Forest in advance swung their slings and launched an attack on the giant spider, but with little success.
"Chief, is this really possible?"
In just a short while, the tribal member who came to report the news had already begun to show his excellent potential as a professional backing down player and began to back down.
Faced with this situation, Zhou Xu, as the leader of the tribe, was also nervous, but he would never show it.
"Do you know what the biggest difference between humans and beasts is?"
Accompanied by a heavy muffled sound suddenly coming from the distance, Zhou Xu nodded his head.
"It's the brain. Humans use their brains."
At this moment, the two thick spider legs on one side of the big spider sank directly into a hole.
The pit was not deep, so it was easy for the big spider to crawl out. It was simply unrealistic to catch the big spider with just the pit trap. Zhou Xu was very clear about this from the beginning.
“Right now!!”
Zhou Xu shouted this loudly, and while rushing forward, he quickly turned the strange rope in his hand with a stone tied to each end.
After gaining speed, Zhou Xu leaned over and threw it out low to the ground.
Under the traction of the stones at both ends, the flying rope spun all the way and directly entangled the spider's legs the moment it hit.
At the same time, members of the tribe scattered in other places also followed suit and took out the same weapons and threw them out.
Their skill in throwing the zipline is definitely not good. After all, only a week has passed since Zhou Xu made this thing.
But as long as the target loses its ability to move, and the distance is appropriately shortened to increase the tolerance rate, the technical problems can be quickly compensated.
After a round of flying ropes, the two spider legs that were stuck in the pit had not yet been pulled out, and the six spider legs exposed outside were tied up by the flying ropes one after another.
The huge body that had just been raised fell to the ground again, completely making the big spider unable to move! This sudden situation made the big spider panic, and it struggled frantically.
But with all eight of its legs entangled in the flying rope, it couldn't exert any strength at all.
"Watch out for the spider silk gushing out of this giant spider's belly! Avoid that spot and attack its joints! Remove its eight legs!"
Up to this point, the plan was proceeding smoothly, which made Zhou Xu feel at ease, and his entire state of mind became more relaxed.
Based on this big plan, he had already assigned tasks to the tribal members, and now that they had received the signal, they all acted swiftly.
Dashan rushed the fastest. After approaching, he aimed at the joints of the spider's legs and swung the stone axe in his hand! Although the spider's shell provided it with a fairly good defense, enough to withstand the stone bullets from the slingshot, the joints had limited strength to ensure flexibility.
The axe came down with great force, breaking the insect's shell and splashing green blood.
The big spider felt pain immediately and let out a series of sharp roars, and its struggle became more and more crazy.
Zhou Xu, who didn't want any unexpected events to happen, quickly sped up his actions.
He commanded the tribe members holding stone axes to chop off the eight legs of the giant spider one by one.
Even if the big spider didn't die without its eight legs, it would have no power to resist. As long as it avoided the part where the opponent spewed spider silk, wouldn't it be at their mercy? Under the continuous attack, accompanied by a mournful cry, the big spider was completely dead.
Looking at the corpse of the monster in front of them, the tribal members, who had been tense and waving their stone axes wildly just a moment ago, were all stunned.
"Dead, dead?"
“He’s really dead.”
“We succeeded, we succeeded!!”
It was totally unimaginable that they could only flee in panic when facing this giant spider before, but now they could kill it so easily! The whole process seemed a little incredible to them.
As for who asked them to do this, the tribal members, whose emotions had calmed down a little, turned around and looked at Zhou Xu who was standing not far away.
At this moment, the reverence in their eyes had almost reached a point that could not be surpassed.
Feeling those gazes falling on him, although Zhou Xu was extremely excited, he still had to maintain his dignity as the leader in front of so many tribal members.
After calming down and organizing his thoughts, Zhou Xu quickly waved to Fei Que beside him.
"Fei Que, go back to the tribe and ask someone to deal with the body of this giant spider."
Having said that, Zhou Xu glanced around and quickly pointed out four tribal members.
"Just in case, the four of you stay here and guard. The others follow me."
After giving instructions, Zhou Xu took the lead and walked directly into the depths of the black forest.
Needless to say, the destination of their trip was the cave in the ground that served as the giant spider's lair!
