Chapter 102 If You Are a Man, Go to the 100th Floor 8
When the first ray of morning light pierced through the clouds, the soldiers on guard on the city wall suddenly sounded a shrill alarm.
Ye Xiaoxuan looked up suddenly and saw a black wave rolling on the horizon - there were tens of thousands of spider monsters, their shells glowing a strange purple light under the morning sun.
I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but the color of the spider swarm this time seems to be darker than the previous two reincarnations.
"Everyone, get in position!" Su Xiao's voice exploded on the city wall. He stood on the ravine, his cloak fluttering, and the golden halo of the [Leader] skill spread out from him.
The soldiers' originally trembling fingers suddenly became as steady as a rock, and the speed of loading crossbows increased by nearly 30%.
Under the fierce attack, the first group of spiders was repelled at an extremely fast speed, and the second group of spiders immediately rushed up.
The previous plan was implemented again. Ye Xiaocao flew high into the sky, but the conclusion he got was the same as the result of the previous round. There was no mark of the boss monster on the map.
This means that the Spider Queen is still very far away from here.
"The southeast corner turret is ready!"
"The oil on the west side has been heated to boiling!"
Amid the reports coming one after another, Ye Xiaoxuan sent Xu Kai away from the city defense.
There were more than a dozen bottles of healing medicine, which would normally be enough for him to use for seven or eight days, but Xu Kai still had no idea whether he could come back alive.
His Adam's apple rolled and he wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a sudden scream outside the city wall.
The second wave of spiders had already rushed into the 500-meter range. Their forelimbs could actually shoot out corrosive spider silk. A young soldier was accidentally hit on the cheek and immediately let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Xu Kai noticed this and showed fear on his face. Ye Xiaoxuan could only pat him on the shoulder and said to him, "It will be possible."
The tone was extremely firm, to show comfort.
Ye Xiaoxuan knew that different strategies were needed to deal with different people. If it was Tian Meng standing in front of her, she would definitely not say such a thing.
Not only would she not say it, she would also use the sharpest words in her life to stir up her anger. But it was different for Xu Kai, she had to say it, and she could only say it.
Su Xiao stood on the wall of the fortress again. Under his command, all the soldiers were ready.
"Everyone must hold on. We need to delay time until the commander defeats the queen."
After saying this impassioned sentence, Su Xiao raised his arm and immediately ordered his men to open fire on the monster in front of them.
In an instant, cannonballs and crossbows rained down on the spider swarm.
Su Xiaoze sent a signal to Ye Xiaoxuan that everything was going well.
When Xu Kai's figure disappeared at the end of the secret passage, Ye Xiaoxuan's face looked very ugly.
The battle was worse than she expected.
As a third-round player, she clearly felt that the monsters were stronger this time, and reincarnation was not without cost. Ye Xiaoxuan's heart sank, but as a commander, she had to calm down and stabilize the morale of the troops.
And with Tian Meng's skills in hand, this change will at most only increase some difficulty for them.
Even if this is a general attack by the spiders, there will definitely be reserve troops in the rear to guard against emergencies, and the Spider Queen will definitely be there.
[Host, please note that the Spider Queen has been spotted at 15 degrees and 20 kilometers southwest of the launch point. The target is currently suspending movement and preparing to attack.]
There was no need to thank her, Ye Xiaoxuan immediately passed the news on.
"Fifteen degrees southwest, twenty kilometers, Tian Meng, the boss's location is over there, can you lock on to it?"
You know, twenty kilometers is a very long distance, and even the most sophisticated cannon cannot reach it, but Tian Meng nodded without hesitation.
Closing her eyes, she said to Ye Xiaoxuan:
"The queen you're talking about is a monster whose upper body looks like a spider and whose lower body is a spider?"
…
When there is a huge gap in level and number in a battle, a healer has to be responsible for the main attack. It all sounds so ridiculous, but it is the only hope for these people.
All of this is because the girl has a hidden skill, [Poison Lock]. Once she successfully locks on a monster, it will be poisoned to death immediately. This skill ignores distance and position and can challenge higher-level monsters. It can be said to be the best solution for this battle.
The plan went smoothly. Ye Xiaoxuan smiled and said:
"Tian Meng, then you will lock the queen's head. I will take care of the rest."
Seeing that the other party seemed to have no confidence, he added: "It doesn't matter if you fail, all the responsibilities will be borne by me. Even if you fail and everything is destroyed, it doesn't matter, I will be responsible for it all. You just need to do what you should do, just do that, and you can avenge half of your friend's revenge."
These words were extremely powerful. Hearing that she could avenge her friend, Tian Meng launched the attack without hesitation. A powerful spiritual force surged out of her body and flew straight to the plain in the distance.
"It works, it works, the Spider Queen's body is beginning to weaken!"
With Ye Xiaocao's report, Ye Xiaoxuan's plan was successful.
Feeling the spider swarm decreasing, countless veterans surrounded her and Tian Meng at once. Even in such a critical situation, they did not hesitate to praise them.
Just when Ye Xiaoxuan was feeling proud of her plan, she soon discovered that the group of spiders, whose attack had slowed down, started attacking again.
Logically speaking, as the queen's power gradually weakens, the spiders should be leaderless and kill each other.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoxuan immediately began to ask Ye Xiaocao about the situation.
Conclusions:
The attack just now did hit the queen accurately, but the queen seemed to have other tricks up her sleeve.
Ye Xiaoxuan described the scene from Ye Xiaocao's retelling:
All spiders began to bite their companions crazily, and the green blood produced by their killing each other formed a stream and flowed back in the direction of the queen. Countless small spiders were swallowed by the queen and became nutrients for her detoxification.
Skill - Toxin Decomposition, was not on the list of appraisals before.
What's going on? Ye Xiaoxuan felt a little unbelievable. Was the queen's strength enhanced or was there something wrong with the appraisal?
However, before she could figure it out, something strange happened again. After being attacked, the queen let out a roar, and in an instant, all the spiders headed towards the direction of the turret.
Twenty kilometers away, the queen, who had devoured enough nutrients, let out an earth-shaking roar. Her humanoid body completely disintegrated, turning into a cloud of spiders that covered the sky. Outside the city, Xu Kai was curled up in a dead tree hole, watching a crack slowly creep across the glass surface of the last bottle of potion.
Looking at this horrifying scene, Tian Meng's eyes suddenly widened, and no one knew what she was thinking.
The scene changed, and in the woods outside the fortress, Xu Kai only had one bottle of potion left. He could only hide behind a tree and pray that the spider would not discover him.
