Chapter 152: Spider Terror Eraser
Chapter 152: Spider Terror Eraser
The ability to pinpoint the enemy's location beyond visual range.
A long-range attack that is deadly yet silent.
The combination of the Map and the Silent Blade's enchantment perfectly meets these two conditions.
As noon approached, a Corrupted Venom Spider lay in wait at the edge of the forest, its web woven around it, patiently biding its time for prey. Its innate hunting instincts kept it perfectly still, blending seamlessly with its surroundings, while its crimson eyes scanned the area incessantly.
Any prey that approached, no matter how slight the movement, would be detected by its eight black legs with yellow rings, which could sense even the faintest vibrations.
But behind it, where it couldn't detect, something was approaching without warning, sound, or any sign.
A sharp arrow flew through the dense forest from afar, instantly piercing the spider's head.
In an instant, the Corrupted Venom Spider was dead.
The arrow, even without any elemental effects, was a deadly strike as it penetrated the spider's brain.
There was no struggle before its death.
The title of Spider Slayer enhanced Lin Sai's attacks, making them more precise and lethal, ensuring a one-hit kill and preventing any struggle before death.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several more arrows swiftly followed, taking out a few smaller Corrupted Venom Spiders nearby.
"Perfect, all eliminated, not a single one got away," Lin Sai said as he stepped into the forest from outside.
The newly unlocked FPS Module had a unique advantage: when Lin Sai aimed with a ranged weapon, not only did a natural reticle appear to predict the attack's landing point, but his natural field of vision also adjusted.
His visual angle narrowed, allowing him to see farther and more accurately.
Especially when aiming at a target, it provided a similar effect to using a rifle scope.
Even though the Corrupted Venom Spiders were hidden in the forest, Lin Sai could quickly locate them on the map and then find their traces in his line of sight, making his subsequent attacks effortless.
"Already 297," Lin Sai said, checking the kill count in his Hunting Journal after collecting materials from the prey.
He then carried away their bodies and left the mountain area once more.
He was just one step away from achieving the next level of achievement.
However, Lin Sai wasn't in a rush.
When faced with a large number of Corrupted Venom Spiders, far more than he could handle alone, he decided to focus on hunting only a small portion of the spiders on the outskirts.
Afterward, he made sure to remove their bodies.
His luck held, and with no large-scale activities, the Corrupted Venom Spiders, naturally less active, remained undisturbed.
Half an hour later, Lin Sai discovered another small spider nest, and his kill count finally surpassed 300.
Spider Nemesis → Spider Terror Eraser
Achievement Reward: Parasitic Wasp
As the numbers in his Hunting Journal updated, Lin Sai was about to claim his reward, but his emotions were mixed.
Beyond the reward, the next level of achievement reward had skyrocketed from 300 to 1500!
"1,500 Corrupted Venom Spiders? How long will it take me to reach that number?"
This exaggerated figure shattered Lin Sai's expectations for the fourth-level kill achievement title.
He immediately checked his newly acquired ability.
Spider Terror Eraser
[Obtained natural intimidation ability against Corrupted Venom Spiders.]
[Many people fear these eight-legged creatures that crawl around, occasionally dropping onto people, and potentially carrying deadly venom.]
End of Chapter:
"You are the most terrifying creature to spiders!" This title alone sparked countless thoughts in Lindsey's mind.
However, when he saw the achievement reward item for this level...
Oddity: Parasitic Wasp Egg
A tiny parasitic wasp egg. When attached to a creature's surface, it will hatch within two hours and enter the creature's body, continuously damaging it.
Special Effect: When the host is a spider, the hatching speed increases dramatically, and the damage capability is significantly enhanced. After killing the host, a reusable parasitic wasp egg will remain.
"This is specifically targeted at spiders."
A smile appeared on Lindsey's face.
Both the title and the item's ability greatly enhanced his threat against the Corrupted Venom Spider.
The so-called Spider Nemesis and Spider Slayer.
This truly became a fitting description!
"But before taking action, let's first test the effect of the title."
With this new insight, the first thing to do was naturally to test their effects.
Within a day, Lindsey had already killed numerous Corrupted Venom Spiders at the edge of the forest.
This time, he spent a full hour finding a suitable target.
In the web between the trees, three Corrupted Venom Spiders were waiting.
Whoosh—
The first arrow, a sharp piercing arrow, was fired, instantly killing one Corrupted Venom Spider.
Whoosh—
The second arrow, with its head shaved off, flew out and struck a Corrupted Venom Spider, but failed to kill it. However, the parasitic wasp egg attached to its surface stuck to the spider's body.
There was no third arrow.
The hunter became the hunted.
After firing two arrows, Lindsey also rushed out from his hiding place.
His agility had now reached 20, and with the boost from the Gray Rabbit Shoes and the newly crafted Bat Pendant, it matched the 23 strength of his physique.
This was an exaggerated speed, boldly challenging the wind resistance.
Lindsey's figure was like a charging leopard, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the last Corrupted Venom Spider.
"Screech, screech, screech!"
At the sight of Lindsey, the Corrupted Venom Spider's chelicerae emitted a rapid rubbing sound, as if threatening the enemy before it.
But Lindsey was someone who could understand the spider's voice.
The sound the Corrupted Venom Spider made was:
"Ah, ah, ah!"
The sound was a single meaning—a scream of fear.
In front of this hideous and enormous spider, Lindsey was like a terrifying creature from a nightmare, accompanied by the scene of its kin being killed by arrows. It almost lost all its ferocity.
The next second, this yellow and green spider jumped down from the web.
Then, without looking back, it fled deep into the mountain forest.
It dared not face Lindsey head-on.
"..."
"Am I that scary?"
Lindsey's expression was complex as he stared at the fleeing Corrupted Venom Spider. He drew his bow and aimed at the retreating spider, firing an arrow with precision.
Whoosh! The arrow hit its mark, and the fleeing Corrupted Venom Spider naturally met its end.
At the same time...
Lindsey examined the last spider with the parasitic wasp egg attached to it.
The scene before him was cruel and terrifying.
Due to the Corrupted Venom Spider's innate restraint, the parasitic wasp egg completed its hatching within two breaths and then burrowed into its body.
Amidst violent struggles, the Corrupted Venom Spider's body was quickly devoured.
It couldn't offer any effective resistance, and within a minute, it lost all signs of life.
Pop! Subsequently, the spider's bloated abdomen burst open like a deflating balloon.
A new yellow egg quietly appeared there.
