122: Chapter 120 The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.

Chapter 120: The Bigger the Waves, the More Expensive the Fish

Captain Ding Li steadied the car, and then, taking advantage of the Mother Spider Tyrant being entangled by the Vine Spider Nurse, she quickly switched positions with Zheng Xue.

She grabbed the anti-materiel sniper rifle, wrapped her belt around the car pillar to steady her stance, and immediately took aim at the Mother Spider Tyrant.

"An abnormal monster not seen in Jumu City's data, and it's being controlled—this thing's path is a bit weird, what on earth is its background?"

Bang, bang, bang.

Captain Ding Li's strength was much greater than Zheng Xue's, especially in body control and marksmanship. Even in a speeding, bumpy car, she could still steadily grip the anti-materiel sniper rifle, locking her muzzle firmly onto the Mother Spider Tyrant as bullets instantly pierced through.

She fired three bullets in succession, emptying this magazine.

The positions of the three bullets were extremely tricky, arriving in front of the Mother Spider Tyrant in a flash.

At this moment, the Mother Spider Tyrant was preparing to tear apart the annoying little scum on its body and stuff it into its mouthparts to swallow.

But the three bullets headed straight for its head, the sound of breaking air waking it up, and it instinctively began to deal with the danger.

It swung its huge, thick humanoid palm at the three bullets, and with a crisp sound, the three bullets were fiercely blocked by its huge palm.

Taking this opportunity, the Vine Spider Nurse thrust its sharp spider spear directly into the Mother Spider Tyrant's body.

The spider spear was like a spear forged from adamantine, sharp and full of power. With this fierce thrust, it instantly left a bloody wound on the Mother Spider Tyrant's body.

The Mother Spider Tyrant went mad, flicking its large hand and directly knocking the Vine Spider Nurse flying.

Its strength was extremely terrifying; with just that flick, the vine tentacles that the Vine Spider Nurse used to wrap around its body were ripped apart.

Under this single blow, the upper body of the Vine Spider Nurse also suffered severe fractures, sharp bones piercing through the body, spider legs snapping, and blood spilling all over the ground.

"The strength is still too overpowered."

Watching the Vine Spider Nurse struggle to hold back the Mother Spider Tyrant, Wang Ting couldn't help frowning.

[ Mother Spider Tyrant cataloging progress: 45% ]

The attacks were still effective, and the damage caused by the Vine Spider Nurse kept the cataloging progress growing.

Seeing the brutal posture of the Mother Spider Tyrant at this moment, Wang Ting knew in his heart that relying solely on the strength of the Vine Spider Nurse, it couldn't hold out in front of the Mother Spider Tyrant for long.

But he still calmly held the sniper rifle, like an emotionless robot, firing several shots consecutively, the bullets whistling and heading straight for the body of the Mother Spider Tyrant.

He did not expect to kill the Mother Spider Tyrant, nor did the sniper rifle lock onto the seemingly more fragile humanoid torso of the Mother Spider Tyrant.

The humanoid torso part was more flexible, had sharper perception, and its defense was only slightly weaker, yet it wasn't something that could be easily broken through.

He knew that mere anti-materiel sniper rifle bullets had no way of killing it, so Wang Ting only aimed to injure the Mother Spider Tyrant as much as possible to gain cataloging progress.

More of his bullets landed at the junction of the human body and the spider body, a position where movements were the stiffest and dodging was the most difficult.

No matter how fast the reaction speed of the Mother Spider Tyrant was, it was still difficult for it to intercept attacks aimed at these relative blind spots.

Just as Wang Ting anticipated, the large-caliber bullets bypassed the interception of the Mother Spider Tyrant's spider legs and struck its body.

The bullets hit with a dull sound, dots of blood appearing on the body of the Mother Spider Tyrant as blood instantly splashed out.

The Giant Claw Night Demon quickly ran across the hill, found a better shooting position, and then controlled the crawler machine gun on its back, condensing the extraordinary factors within its body, and instantly fired two artillery shells.

The firing rate of the crawler machine gun was very fast, and the trajectory arc was very low. Almost as soon as they were launched, the shells would reach the front of the Mother Spider Tyrant and instantly hit its body.

The Mother Spider Tyrant reacted extremely quickly, crossing its hard spider legs in front of it to block. One of the shells was directly intercepted by it, a muffled sound blasting its figure into a stumble.

As the firelight dissipated, trails of blood streaks appeared on the Mother Spider Tyrant's body, and the carapace of its spider legs cracked slightly, but the core body part did not suffer serious damage.

[ Mother Spider Tyrant cataloging progress: 57% ]

Continue attacking—

A fierce look flashed across Wang Ting's eyes.

Even if it couldn't cause serious damage, as long as the cataloging progress grew, he dared to take a gamble.

He began to continuously pull the trigger, moving his figure rapidly in order to find the best shooting point.

In just a few breaths, a magazine was emptied by him, five bullets whistling past and heading straight for the Mother Spider Tyrant.

At the same time, the Giant Claw Night Demon was also fully controlling the crawler machine gun, firing three or four shells in succession.

The entire body of the Giant Claw Night Demon began to tremble slightly, and its energy consumption increased significantly.

You must know that although the crawler machine gun did not need to consume ammunition, what it consumed itself was flesh-and-blood power and extraordinary factors.

Although the Giant Claw Night Demon was powerful, supporting so many heavy artillery attacks, it clearly also felt strained.

Perceiving this situation, Wang Ting directly threw out the extraordinary materials and Extraordinary Core inside the macrophage bracelet.

Seeing these materials, the Giant Claw Night Demon pounced directly, swallowed them in large mouthfuls, and chewed as brutally as a monster that had been starving for days, frantically devouring the food.

When the extraordinary materials entered its belly, the Giant Claw Night Demon was rapidly digesting them, turning them into its own extraordinary factors. Energy surged into the crawler machine gun, and then red light lit up, continuously condensing into ammunition to supply the Giant Claw Night Demon for successive shelling.

Wang Ting and the Giant Claw Night Demon launched a frantic attack, artillery fire and bullets falling like raindrops.

That violent output made even Captain Ding Li in the distance find it incredible.

"That guy's weapon is actually this powerful?"

Captain Ding Li's expression sank: "If we attack like this, the Mother Spider Tyrant will go completely berserk and fixate entirely on him."

She knew that although this artillery fire was powerful, it was still not enough to completely suppress a mid-level abnormal entity like the Mother Spider Tyrant.

Only real heavy artillery or large-yield bomb bombardment causing excessive damage could possibly severely injure it.

Otherwise, relying on the characteristics of zombie monsters, the stronger the flesh-and-blood monster, the stronger its self-healing ability would be. The Mother Spider Tyrant before them also had this ability; ordinary attack damage, aside from consuming some of the Mother Spider Tyrant's stamina and energy, would not cause substantive danger.

"A-Xue, drive toward his side, faster."

Captain Ding Li ordered Zheng Xue to turn the car around. She was still firing to attract the attention of the Mother Spider Tyrant, attempting to pull its aggro.

But the Mother Spider Tyrant, which had been hit consecutively by the machine gun, now had its carapace cracked and a large amount of blood gushing out. The pain stimulated its madness, and it no longer even intercepted ordinary attacks, solely to display a more terrifying combat posture.

It headed straight for Wang Ting's direction like a hunter eyeing its prey. Wang Ting's bullets hit their marks one by one, but failed in the slightest to diminish its momentum of charging and killing.

[ Mother Spider Tyrant cataloging progress: 83% ]

At this moment, the Vine Spider Nurse leaped forward to pounce, doing its utmost to intercept the Mother Spider Tyrant's momentum rushing toward Wang Ting.

It leaped high into the air, its remaining vines shooting toward the body of the Mother Spider Tyrant, attempting to entangle it once again.

However, this time, the lower spider abdomen of the Mother Spider Tyrant suddenly bulged, its tail end aiming at the Vine Spider Nurse, and it fiercely spewed out a blood-colored spider web resembling blood vessels.

With a swish, the Vine Spider Nurse was bound by this blood vessel-like spider web.

The Vine Spider Nurse was instantly pinned to the ground; even though it struggled desperately, it completely failed to break free from this flesh-and-blood network.

Granulations writhed on the blood-colored large web, resembling worms ready to devour flesh and blood.

Clearly looking as soft and bright red as blood vessels, the next moment they could plunge into the flesh and blood of the Vine Spider Nurse as if taking root and sprouting, tightly entangling with its flesh and skin membrane.

The blood inside its body continuously drained away, and the spider web constantly tightened, binding it like a bird that had fallen into a bird-eating spider's giant web.

A bird still had room to struggle, but the Vine Spider Nurse didn't even have the space to struggle.

The berserk Mother Spider Tyrant rushed straight up and then opened its sharp abdominal mouthparts.

Opening its bloody maw wide, that unique and ferocious mouthpart on its abdomen instantly bit off the head of the Vine Spider Nurse like a guillotine.

In an instant, Wang Ting felt as if the connection with the Vine Spider Nurse had snapped, instantly losing his sense of the Vine Spider Nurse.

His expression changed slightly, immediately taking on a bit of a desperate and chilling coldness.

Full-force attack—

Wang Ting changed the magazine of the corpse hound sniper rifle and fiercely kept shooting toward the Mother Spider Tyrant.

One magazine, two magazines, three magazines————

Amidst his rapid movements, he emptied three magazines in succession.

The fierce bullets flew straight toward the Mother Spider Tyrant, striking its body, the carapace-covered spider legs, lower body, and other locations, producing a clanging sound as if they were hitting a sheet of iron.

[Mother Spider Tyrant cataloging progress: 87%]

Attacking with equal madness was the Giant Claw Night Demon by the side. After swallowing a large amount of Extraordinary Materials and Extraordinary Cores, the Extraordinary factors within its body had been replenished accordingly. Although it was still far from fully transforming, Wang Ting had no time to care about such things at this moment and directly issued a life-or-death order.

The Giant Claw Night Demon exerted all its strength to drain its body, condensing ammunition for the crawler machine gun. Like scattering fireworks across the sky, it fired seven or eight machine gun rounds in succession.

Bang, bang, bang—

The sound of the artillery shells exploding was like a sudden clap of thunder in the desert, resounding loudly and startling the Zombie Crow in the sky into circling and swooping down.

With this wave of attacks hitting right in the face, the Mother Spider Tyrant's condition gradually became somewhat disheveled.

Although its body was powerful and its defense comparable to a steel plate, the consecutive attacks still left it looking somewhat "miserable." Blood flowed from its splits, and granulation tissue constantly wriggled, repairing the huge wounds blasted out by the machine gun.

[Mother Spider Tyrant cataloging progress: 94%]

Seeing the cataloging progress break past ninety, Wang Ting felt a surge of joy, but at the same time, his heart grew increasingly solemn.

Now that the Mother Spider Tyrant was no longer held back by the Vine Spider Nurse, that suppressed, violent anger erupted completely like a long-accumulated volcano.

It let out a terrifying roar, and the sound waves spread in all directions.

Even Wang Ting, who was four hundred meters away, felt a wave of dizziness, and blood was shaken out from the corners of his mouth.

Zheng Xue and Captain Ding Li, who attempted to drive back, were struck even more dizzy by the sound wave, and the overflowing blood was much more than Wang Ting's.

Zheng Xue was seriously injured as a result, her vision went black, and she had already passed out.

"Not good!"

With quick eyes and nimble hands, Captain Ding Li perceived the problem with her subordinate Zheng Xue, immediately abandoning the anti-materiel sniper rifle and firmly grabbing the steering wheel.

Her reaction speed was truly fast enough, saving the entire vehicle just before it was about to roll over.

However, this very rescue delayed the shooting action.

In this direction, no one precisely sniped at the Mother Spider Tyrant's eyes and head.

The Mother Spider Tyrant's attention was no longer pulled away; instead, it was directly focused on the chief culprit, Wang Ting.

Its eight thick and powerful spider legs stabbed into the sand dune, charging rapidly toward Wang Ting. Its high-speed movement resembled an off-road vehicle, shortening the distance between them by one or two hundred meters in just a few breaths.

Bang, bang, bang.

Wang Ting's breathing grew rapid.

But at this moment, only 6% of the cataloging points remained until completion.

He emptied his magazine all at once, and the barrel of the corpse hound sniper rifle had become as hot as a red-hot iron pipe.

The Mother Spider Tyrant also seemed to sense that these bullets could not kill it, so its charging movements were wide open and extremely rapid. The bullets landing on its body only blasted out wounds, with blood splashing onto the yellow earth, but that tiny bit of blood was nothing at all.

[Mother Spider Tyrant cataloging progress: 95%]

With a series of attacks and the increasing cataloging progress right before his eyes, Wang Ting directly put the corpse hound sniper rifle away into his own consciousness.

At this time, the Giant Claw Night Demon quickly arrived in front of Wang Ting, its figure shaking, and the crawler machine gun dropped right in front of Wang Ting.

Wang Ting's gaze was as cold and sharp as a knife, and the look he cast at the Mother Spider Tyrant was as if a top-tier hunter were locking eyes with a violent tiger descending the mountain.

His expression remained unchanged, without the slightest posture of wavering. Even when facing an intermediate anomaly equivalent to a human Tier 2 Extraordinary, he did not take a single step back.

Go.

The Giant Claw Night Demon cast aside the crawler machine gun, letting out a violent roar.

"Redeem bat-bee grenade"

At this time, Wang Ting redeemed a bat-bee grenade, and a grenade about the size of two fists appeared in his palm.

He threw the grenade in front of the Giant Claw Night Demon. The Giant Claw Night Demon directly bit down on the already-pinned grenade, its figure rapidly charging toward the Mother Spider Tyrant.

Its figure, over three meters tall, rushed forward like a heavily armored dirt bike.

Not fearing death, the Giant Claw Night Demon charged upward toward the Mother Spider Tyrant, which was as tall as a small building, just like a mayfly launching a death charge against a towering skyscraper.

The Giant Claw Night Demon knew it was no match, but that death-defying resolve moved Captain Ding Li, who was closely watching the changes on the battlefield from afar.

"What a lunatic."

She did not understand why Wang Ting didn't run away. Instead, while ordering his subordinate monster to make a death charge, he grabbed that bizarre machine gun onto his own arm, allowed the flesh-and-blood machine gun to fuse with his left arm, and then raised the machine gun to aim at the Mother Spider Tyrant.

She cursed, then slammed her foot all the way down on the accelerator, enduring the tearing pain in her head, and drove straight toward Wang Ting.

Sand and dust flew, motors roared, and the off-road vehicle crossed the sand dune, its entire body hoisted high into the air.

Originally, this off-road vehicle had been stripped down to a crude skeleton due to the monster's attack, looking extremely miserable to the extreme. Tossed about further by Captain Ding Li slamming her foot on the gas pedal to the death, when the car dropped from the sand dune, one of its few remaining doors was shaken off.

She traveled almost parallel to the speed of the Mother Spider Tyrant, the two converging toward Wang Ting from different directions.

200 meters, 150 meters, 100 meters————

The charging speeds of the two were almost neck-and-neck, but at this moment, a sudden change occurred: the Giant Claw Night Demon had already rushed in front of the Mother Spider Tyrant and leaped high into the air.

The Mother Spider Tyrant swung its sharp spider spear, wanting to pin it down, but the Giant Claw Night Demon's figure was agile, and with a single bound, it directly bypassed the interception of the spider legs, pouncing right in front of the Mother Spider Tyrant.

Having received Wang Ting's command and now close up, the Giant Claw Night Demon had no instinctive fear or dodging; instead, it swung its terrifying, scissor-like sharp claws, constantly tearing and scratching at the Mother Spider Tyrant's body.

The hard carapace and skin blocked most of the damage, but the Mother Spider Tyrant still had quite a few scars left by previous attacks on its body at this time.

The sharp giant claws cut along the scars into the flesh, causing the Mother Spider Tyrant to let out an exasperated cry. Then, its angry spider spears swung out, piercing through the Giant Claw Night Demon's body like a merciless spear.

The Giant Claw Night Demon's aura instantly withered, but at this time, the bat-bee grenade in its mouth reached the moment of detonation with a loud, rumbling explosion.

The terrifying sound wave shock and the grenade's shrapnel directly assaulted the Mother Spider Tyrant.

With a loud buzzing hum, at the location where wounds had already appeared, countless blood splattered under the powerful vibration, and shattered fragments embedded themselves into the body, breaking open the Mother Spider Tyrant's hard skin.

For a moment, the Mother Spider Tyrant felt a stabbing pain enveloping its body, having unexpectedly suffered quite a heavy injury.

[Mother Spider Tyrant cataloging completed. Obtained 5,000 monster points.]

A look of wild joy instantly appeared on Wang Ting's face, and he now prepared to spread his bat wings and fly directly away from this place.

The Giant Claw Night Demon was already beyond saving, but that didn't matter.

Trading the deaths of two Servant Beasts for such a huge harvest, he had already made a fortune.

"Get in the car quickly!"

The off-road vehicle roared up in front of him without slowing down at all, and the raised sand splattered almost all over him.

Captain Ding Li on the car was shouting at him with a cold face, her expression so anxious as if the next moment the Mother Spider Tyrant caught up, they would all be doomed.

Wang Ting wore a look of astonishment, but there was no time to hesitate now. He grabbed onto the vehicle frame and vaulted up onto the off-road vehicle.

Captain Ding Li slammed her foot on the accelerator, driving straight in the direction of further away. Meanwhile, the Mother Spider Tyrant, who had been left dizzy and disoriented by the sound wave of the bat-bee grenade, came back to its senses, but the off-road vehicle had already driven a long distance away.

It roared, still wanting to pursue, but at this moment, continuous roars echoed within Zombie Town, and the zombie horde had already gathered.

For a time, it did not catch up. Looking at the direction in which Captain Ding Li's off-road vehicle was receding, it let out an angry roar.
