208: Chapter 208 Don't move! You're surrounded!

Su Ming was very unsatisfied with the slowly ticking numbers on the panel.

[sinking star Repair Progress: 4.35%]

Over a dozen spiders took turns scratching him for ages, and it only amounted to this much. He would have to stand here until next year to repair sinking star to 10%.

Did a dozen or so even count as a beast tide?

"A bunch of bootleg masseuses! It's like they haven't eaten!"

Looking at the Magic Spiders around him with their shattered chelicerae, cowering and retreating, Su Ming's face was practically written with four big words: Negative Review.

He glanced down at the shattered spider fangs and carapaces at his feet, then looked up at the ceiling, where thousands of high-tier Magic Spiders hung densely on the giant web.

Paying to enjoy a service, only to find out all the masseuses are interns?

What to do?

He had to call the lobby manager!

He slapped down with a backhand.

"Smack!"

The Tier 4 Magic Spider in front of him, which was still trying to spit venom at him with its remaining limbs, had its entire head caved in, brain matter and dark green bodily fluids splattering everywhere.

The flying severed limbs, residual blood, and low-concentration venom were automatically deflected by the repulsive force layer before they could even touch his clothes.

"Tsk, so dirty."

Su Ming shook his hand, then grabbed the severed leg—thicker than his waist—of another Tier 5 Magic Spider that was trying to give him a "scraping massage" with its chelicerae, and exerted sudden force!

The Tier 5 Magic Spider, weighing several tons, felt weightless in his hands and was easily lifted.

Under the bewildered gazes of the surrounding Magic Spiders, Su Ming aligned his waist and horse stance.

It was the motion of throwing a sixteen-pound ball in a bowling alley from his previous life.

Except this time, what he threw was a five-meter-long spider corpse.

"Get up there for me!"

"Buzz!"

Carrying terrifying kinetic energy, the spider corpse whistled as it soared, heading straight for the dark blue symbiotic giant web on the ceiling!

"Bang!!"

The dull impact echoed throughout the entire sinkhole.

The giant web was dented by several meters in diameter, snapping dozens of dark blue spider silks simultaneously. Three nearby Tier 4 Magic Spiders bound to the grid instantly fell loose, screeching in terror as they plummeted toward the ground.

"Interesting."

Su Ming's eyes lit up; he had found a new toy.

He repeated the process.

One, two, three...

The "shoddy masseuses" on the ground instantly became the most useful weapons in his hands.

He used the massive spider corpses as bowling balls, launching them one after another toward the ceiling.

"Bang!"

The dull, heavy crashes merged into a continuous roar within the sinkhole.

Under the relentless, heavy impacts, cracks spread wildly across the giant web that blanketed the entire sinkhole.

Finally, another "cannonball" struck a critical node.

The balance of the entire giant web was completely shattered!

"Crack..."

A massive section of the ceiling web collapsed with a roar!

The scene was like the sky itself was falling.

Hundreds of awakened high-tier Magic Spiders unleashed shrill, angry screeches. Along with the severed spider silk, they turned into a torrential rain of black flesh, crashing down!

In just a single breath, the spot where Su Ming stood was completely submerged by this black tide.

Countless dead and living Magic Spiders piled on top of each other, instantly forming a squirming "mountain of corpses" over ten meters high!

However, Su Ming, who was at the very bottom of the mountain of corpses, had a flash of fanatical excitement in his eyes.

"Since the bath area is limited, I'll have to do some filtering!"

Before his voice even faded.

[Void Gravity Field]!

Ten times power, fiercely activated!

"Buzz...!"

An invisible yet incredibly heavy, distorted force field instantly enveloped a ten-meter radius with him at the center!

The Tier 4 Magic Spiders that had not yet landed in midair found the dark green fluids and internal organs inside their bodies rushing uncontrollably toward their abdomens under the intense pressure of several times their own gravity!

"Splat!"

Their eight compound eyes instantly filled with blood and burst. Unable to withstand the explosive internal pressure, their bodily structures ruptured one after another.

Those that had just landed and hadn't even had time to stabilize themselves met an even more miserable end.

The moment they hit the ground, their eight sharp spider legs snapped outward simultaneously under the weight of several times their own mass.

"Crack!"

Without even being able to let out a single cry of pain, their massive bodies were crushed into a puddle of mangled flesh by their own weight.

In an instant, hundreds of Tier 4 Magic Spiders were completely wiped out or mortally wounded!

As for those Tier 5 Magic Spiders with stronger Physiques and harder carapaces, although they didn't die on the spot, they were severely injured.

The terrifying gravity pinned them down ruthlessly. Their hard carapaces creaked under the unbearable load, with countless cracks spreading.

They struggled desperately, but they couldn't even lift a single limb, left only to twitch in vain on the spot.

Within the ten-meter Domain, it was a Shura Field.

Only on the outermost edge, those seventy or eighty Tier 6 elite Magic Spiders—the largest and most ferocious in aura—could barely withstand the terrifying gravity. Taking heavy steps, they crawled toward the center with great difficulty.

With every step forward, they stamped a shallow pit into the ground.

Furious screeches escaped their mouths, and their crimson compound eyes were filled with bloodthirsty madness.

Su Ming stood in the center of the messy ruins of carcasses and mangled flesh, without a single speck of blood on his body.

He nodded in satisfaction as he watched the Tier 6 Magic Spiders approaching him.

"Very good. The gold-medal masseuses can stay. The small fry can clock out."

Su Ming bent down, picked up the intact corpse of a Tier 5 Magic Spider, and threw it directly at the head of the nearest Tier 6 elite Magic Spider.

Having taken the hit, the Tier 6 Magic Spider did not retreat. Instead, it was completely enraged, its front chelicerae charging with Shadow Source Energy as it stabbed straight forward.

"Thud!"

A dull impact sounded.

The dark-gold lattice on the surface of sinking star lit up, and the counter-shock force cracked the Tier 6 Magic Spider's front chelicera.

[Repair Progress +0.1%]

Su Ming's eyes lit up.

That's more like it!

"You will be fully responsible for today's VIP service."

He deactivated the Void Gravity Field.

The moment the gravity was lifted, the seventy or eighty Tier 6 elite Magic Spiders acted as if their shackles had been removed, bursting into action simultaneously!

"Hiss...!"

Their piercing screeches merged into one. Eighty Tier 6 Magic Spiders surged from all directions, the black tide closing in.

Su Ming stood in the center of the tide, spreading his arms and comfortably closing his eyes.

"Thud! Thud, thud...!"

The attacks of the Tier 6 Magic Spiders came one after another.

Every strike was infused with dense Shadow Source Energy, its power a whole order of magnitude stronger than the previous Tier 4 and Tier 5 attacks.

The dark-gold lattice on the surface of sinking star flashed continuously, and the repair progress began to tick upward at a visible rate.

4.52%... 4.71%... 4.93%...

The corners of Su Ming's mouth curled up.

But this was still not enough.

He raised his head and looked up.

After the collapse just now, more than half of the Tier 6 Magic Spiders were still hanging on the giant ceiling web, struggling frantically to break free.

Letting them fall down one by one on their own was too slow.

Su Ming couldn't wait.

He might as well go big!

He bent his knees slightly.

"Boom!"

The ground beneath his feet suddenly exploded into a deep crater,

and the [Mass Engine] roared instantly!

He shot straight up into the sky vertically, enveloped in a white wave of air, aiming directly for the ceiling!

His target...

...was impressively the giant symbiotic web composed of countless dark blue spider silks above!

In midair, Su Ming spread his arms, his ten fingers like hooks, stabbing fiercely into the incredibly tough giant web!

A cold, sticky, and highly active sensation traveled from his fingertips.

"Get... down here for me!"

The muscles on his arms bulged. At this moment, his terrifying, monstrous strength of over 1,300 tons erupted without reservation!

"Rip...!!"

A deafening tear echoed through the entire sinkhole!

The giant web that maintained the symbiosis of the entire Magic Spider colony, in the face of absolute strength...

...was forcibly torn open with a massive gap!

Starting from the tear point at Su Ming's hands, the rip spread in all directions at an unimaginable speed.

Every snapped spider silk sprayed out a massive amount of dark blue energy mist,

instantly lighting up the upper part of the sinkhole as bright as day.

"Crack! Crack...!!"

The load-bearing structure of the symbiotic web completely collapsed!

The breaking spider silks let out sharp snapping sounds. The entire giant web, along with the thousands of high-tier Magic Spiders hanging from it, was completely unleashed.

The fall was like a torrential rain of black.

Each "drop" of rain weighed anywhere from several tons to dozens of tons,

and each "drop" was screeching in madness.

"Rumble..."

The entire canyon shook violently.

Dust filled the air, and the screeches shook the heavens.

Using the counter-force of tearing the web, Su Ming flipped and descended, landing steadily on top of the small hill of Tier 4 spider corpses at the bottom of the pit.

He patted the dust off his hands and looked around.

As far as the eye could see was a dense, endless ocean of black Magic Spiders.

Over a hundred furious Tier 6 Magic Spiders locked their crimson compound eyes tightly onto the man atop the pile of corpses.

At this moment, the air in the sinkhole seemed to have been sucked dry.

Yet, Su Ming grinned, revealing the smile of a ruthless bandit.

It was flamboyant, insolent, and arrogant to the extreme.

"Hahaha!"

He spread his arms wide and announced loudly to the Magic Spiders filling the entire sinkhole:

"None of you move..."

"You are surrounded by me!"
