58. Earth Demon Spider
"It's a goblin spider!" When the first spider appeared in the Illumination's range, Alfred immediately recognized the spider's identity.
The Earth Demon Spider is an uncommon insect-type magical beast.
These spiders are only the size of an adult's palm, and although they are larger than normal spiders in terms of size, they are not so excessive. Generally speaking, they are no different from ordinary spiders, they are also divided into cephalothorax and abdomen, have eight legs, and have chelicerae and whiskers in the front, and the main attack method is to leap onto the target with strong jumping force and nail the chelicerae into the target's body.
The Earth Demon Spider does not have venom glands, so it does not have a toxin that can kill in one hit, but in the chelicera, it can secrete a paralyzing liquid that paralyzes the ability of the target creature, and then feeds directly with oral sharps when the target creature already has various senses, which is very different from the traditional way of eating in which the spider passes through the digestive juice and then sucks the business liquid.
In addition, the Earth Demon Spider is also unable to spin silk, which means that they cannot use it to entangle and bind their target. However, on the surface of the Earth Demon Spider's body, there is a layer of hard rock armor, which is difficult to break through with ordinary attacks, plus the Earth Demon Spider is considered "small" in size and strong jumping power compared to other Demon Beasts, and it usually appears in groups, so even if the Earth Demon Spider is only the lowest-level first-level Demon Beast, but in the case of being able to fight without fighting, absolutely no one wants to provoke these creatures.
If given the choice, Alfred would rather face the human-faced spider.
Although the size of the human-faced spider is completely different from the category of normal spiders, and they already have simple intelligence, they are not "monsters", but are still in the category of living beings. For people in this world, Warcraft and creatures are completely two concept creatures, even the most intelligent creatures can be easily dealt with, and even the most stupid and weak Warcraft is difficult to deal with.
"There are too many!" Alfred said in a deep voice, "We should retreat now!" ”
"No, I don't." Sean shook his head.
For people in this world, the normal logic is indeed that they would rather face intelligent creatures than stupid monsters. But this is only for players like Sean who were not born from this world, he is more willing to face Warcraft, because in the game, any known Warcraft has already been thoroughly studied and understood by players, whether it is its characteristics, strengths or weaknesses, it is no secret to players.
After all, in the player's world, fighting with Warcraft and other players is the mainstream - any caretaker who guards ruins, treasures, and the like is mostly Warcraft, traps, and puppets, and only in rare cases will they fight NPC creatures.
The Earth Demon Spider, although it is a demonic beast, is only the weakest, only a second-order strength.
"Don't be fooled by their illusions." Sean pulled Cecilia past him and pulled him behind him, and at the same time, when his body moved slightly, he switched positions with Alfred without him knowing what to do, "The rock armor of the Earth Demon Spider is indeed very hard, but they are still spiders after all, and there are only a few attack methods that can be used. ”
The first earth demon spider closest to Sean and the others finally flew in with a jump.
As Sean remembers, the Earth Demon Spider's jumping ability is still so terrifying, and the distance of more than eight meters seems to be completely non-existent for them.
And after the first Earth Demon Spider jumped, followed by the second, third, and fourth .........,
Patches of earth demon spiders jumped up and attacked overwhelmingly, and there was a feeling of dark clouds crushing the city. In particular, the impact of the speed of the Earth Demon Spider when it jumps out makes people feel a palpitation for no reason. That dense black shadow, even Alfred, who was accustomed to seeing life and death and all kinds of dangerous scenes, suddenly had the illusion of goosebumps, let alone Cecilia.
Even though she has experienced many thrilling battles with Sean, this terrible sense of oppression is really the first time.
The only one who remained indifferent was Sean.
"Skill Activation." Sean's heart silently said, "Adrenal stimulation." ”
[To activate this skill, you need to consume two proficiency points, are you sure to activate it?] 】
"Sure."
Without the slightest hesitation.
[Adrenal Stimulation: By forcibly stimulating the adrenal glands to put yourself in a state of excitement, the reaction ability is increased by 50%, the duration is 3 minutes, the effect disappears and you enter a state of exhaustion, and your full ability is reduced by 70%, Support/Second Order/Normal, Level 1/3, Proficiency 1/4. 】
This is a support skill that can be learned after the second level of all [Physics] classes, and its function is very simple, it can only improve a person's reflexes. The so-called reaction ability includes reflex nerves, dynamic capture ability, movement speed, force control, etc.
In the game, it is not difficult to acquire this skill, and almost any [Physics] class 2nd order will learn it, because it is a very important skill.
After activating this skill, the Earth Demon Spiders, which were originally unable to capture the movement trajectory with the naked eye, were now playing in slow motion in Sean's eyes, and their movement trajectory in mid-air was already clearly visible.
Sean didn't hesitate at all, his arm was slightly raised, and Charles's saber swung up with Sean's movements.
The blade of the sword swept up from the bottom to the top, cutting through the barrier of air, but suddenly there was a sharp whistling sound in the windless environment.
In the face of the terrifying oppression of the Earth Demon Spiders leaping in groups, Alfred and Cecilia could feel that the awe-inspiring momentum of Sean's sword was even stronger!
The blade of the sword did not cut the Earth Demon Spider in two as expected.
At the moment when the blade of the sword swept to the extreme, as if someone had pressed the pause button, Sean's sword stopped in mid-air abruptly. And the sword, which attracted the attention of Alfred and Cecilia, also made the two of them feel sick to their stomachs because of this abrupt stop.
In the next second, the cold light flickered.
The sword in Sean's hand stabbed out suddenly, and a sword "pointed" at the middle of the head, thorax and abdomen of the Earth Demon Spider.
This seemingly light sword has actually pierced an inch.
A hoarse scream came from the body of the Earth Demon Spider, and it had already begun to swing rapidly while it was still in mid-air, and its completely unbalanced body fell to the ground in the next moment. However, the violent twitching did not stop there, and with the continuous twitching of the body, the layer of rock on the earth demon spider's body also began to produce slight cracks, and small pieces of stones began to fall off from its body, revealing a light gray body wrapped in earthy yellow rocks.
What happened to this Earth Demon Spider is not the only one, and it will never be the first.
The moment the first Earth Demon Spider fell from mid-air, the silver brilliance erupted like a storm under the scope of the illumination.
It was the shadow of a sword that was equivalent to a leaping earth demon spider.
It was a flower of death blooming in a narrow tunnel. …,
At this moment, Alfred seemed to see in a trance the situation of confronting himself in the wine and the blade last night.
Sean was still motionless like a reef, but this time it was not his momentum that formed the waves, but the black and overwhelming earth demon spider in front of him. But this time, the lapping of the waves did not receive any effective results, and when each silver-white sword shadow shone, an earth demon spider would fall from mid-air, and then continue to twitch, but the more intense they twitched, the faster the rock layer on their bodies fell off.
What's even more incredible is that the crazy magical aura that belongs to the unique demonic beasts is constantly dissipating from the light gray earth demon spiders on the ground.
Alfred, as a [physics] profession, may not know what this means, but Cecilia, who is an apprentice magician, knows very well that this means that every sword stab of Sean accurately destroys the crystal nucleus in the body of the Earth Demon Spider. And this is the real reason for the death of these earth demon spiders, their convulsions are only due to the severe pain of the crystal nucleus shattering.
Tens of seconds, maybe a minute or two.
The silver light storm that bloomed finally disappeared in the narrow tunnel.
Dozens of Earth Demon Spiders, just under Sean's sword power, stopped here, and couldn't cause any substantial damage to the three of them at all.
And Sean also canceled the effect of the adrenal stimulation skill at the first time, and a feeling of weakness and fatigue immediately swept over, which made him have to stand on his sword. Immediately afterwards, the soreness from his right hand also instantly made him feel a strong pain, under the stimulation of the adrenal glands, his movement speed has indeed been greatly improved, but at the cost, after the effect disappears, the muscle strain caused by strenuous exercise will also be completely fed back.
"Captain!" After Alfred was shocked, he also noticed Sean's strange appearance for the first time, and immediately reached out to support him.
"I didn't have any problems, I just exercised too much." Sean shook his head, "Do you see how I attacked?" …… The Earth Demon Spider's crystal nucleus is halfway between the cephalothorax and abdomen, and even if they attack here, no matter how strong their rock armor is, it will be useless. It can be said that this is their biggest weakness, take this sword...... If you really don't know how to stab them, grab them and break them! ”
If the power value reaches more than 30 points, the Earth Demon Spider can be broken, which was discovered by a player who was idle in the game at the beginning. And through this behavior, you can also retain the crystal nucleus in the body of the Earth Demon Spider, although this crystal nucleus is only the size of a grain of rice, but if you collect a thousand, it can still be equivalent to the level of a real first-level demonic beast crystal nucleus.
Alfred's strength is only twenty-seven, but if Charles' sword is equipped, then the strength will definitely exceed thirty!
The only thing to worry about is Alfred's speed, after all, the Earth Demon Spider is a piece of fluttering.
