Chapter 568 Spider Swarm
As a high-level mage, doesn't Aldai have any other good ideas? It would be too miserable to be chased all over the place all day long.
From a macro perspective in the multiverse world, characters over level 40 are those who have just escaped from poverty, and some are masters who can fight.
But the multiverse world is too big, and this base number is too scary. In fact, on average in every plane, level 40 is already a pretty awesome guy.
Aldai does have a way, but the problem is that the environment restricts her performance.
If it were in an open place, or simply outdoors, Aldai would have been at full strength. Not only can he blow up everyone with his own strength, but he can at least blast out a way and retreat leisurely without any problem.
But this is in an underground ruins, and the dwarves' passage is not wide enough to throw high-power spells casually. If they explode casually, they will probably bury themselves alive first.
So I had no choice but to run away quickly.
But it's not without good news. Don't forget, besides the mercenaries, there are also drow behind the three of them.
These two groups of people happened to be chasing Aldai and the others into a tunnel, and they were not in the same group.
There were sounds of fighting coming from behind the mercenaries. It was probably Drow and the Wild Bear mercenaries. Maybe Drow thought Aldai was from the Wild Bear mercenaries.
After all, in the eyes of drow, they are all inferior creatures and they all look the same.
Zola turned around and raised the Holy Emblem to fire a sword barrier in the middle of the passage. The wild bear mercenaries who were chasing behind quickly braked. Some of them tried to jump over because they were not afraid of death, but were crushed to pieces by the sword barrier on the spot. Meat.
This move can't delay them for too long. The wild bear mercenaries must have a mage, and they can be relieved by the mage coming up a few times. As long as it can be delayed for a while, it will be enough for Aldai and the others to run away.
The more troublesome thing is that they are on a straight road without even a pit. They have to pay attention to various projectile weapons fired from behind while running.
Seeing that the distance between them and the wild bear mercenaries was widened, the three of them just breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, a sound of footsteps as dense as raindrops, which could even be said to be penetrating, broke into their ears, and the source of the sound was in front.
Then the three of them saw a large group of spiders pouring into the passage like a tsunami from behind the right-angled bend in front of them. Some were only as big as fingernails, and some were as big as calves. The number was literally like a tide.
The drow are lacking in numbers, so they make up for it with these spiders.
Regardless of whether they are poisonous or not, big and small, such a large number of spiders crowded in the passage and rushed towards them, which gave people an even more terrifying psychological impact. The three of them braked almost at the same time, and layers of spiders appeared on the back of their necks. Goosebumps.
Aldai raised his hand and hit it with a fireball. In the roaring explosion, countless spiders were scorched and blown to pieces, but more spiders came up from behind, just like a fountain. Fireball The effect it can have is minimal.
What should I do now, continue to use the fireball technique?
To be honest, regardless of whether it can blow up such a huge swarm of spiders, it is estimated that this dwarf ruins will not be able to withstand the fireballs fired one after another.
At this critical moment, Li Chengqi finally took action.
A rotating black hole suddenly opened on the ceiling in front of the three people, and a metal can fell from it, with a hand holding the button above the can.
Along with the sound of hissing, a large white thick fog sprayed out from the top of the jar towards the spider.
Aldai also immediately received the instruction and immediately raised her staff towards the thick fog spraying out:
"Wind creation!"
A sudden gust of wind blew up in the underground passage, and some of the white mist that was originally drifting in the direction of Aldai and the three of them was blown by the strong wind and all hit the spider.
The effect can be said to be immediate. The spiders squeezing through the passage in groups slowed down the moment they touched the white mist. Each spider twitched into a ball and finally became motionless. It sounds a bit cool, but in fact this is just a can of insecticide...
Although spiders are not considered insects but arthropods in terms of classification, pesticides will kill you regardless of the number of pesticides.
If necessary, spraying it on people will have the same effect. It can be said to be a highly lethal poison gas.
Because of this, Li Chengqi did not dare to spray too much, fearing that Aldai and the others would also be infected. Seeing that the spider corpses were almost blocking the passage, he quickly took out the insecticide.
Aldai has been maintaining the wind-making technique, blowing away as much poisonous gas as possible.
I thought that after waiting for a while for the concentration of poisonous gas to decrease and cleaning up the spider corpses blocking the road, I could continue running away. However, as soon as Li Chengqi took back the pesticide, he saw a strange spider jumping out of the pile of corpses. He jumped and pounced on the three people standing there.
It was a spider whose whole body was covered with a thick shell, but it was different from the shape of the crab's shell. It felt like it was covered with sharp swords, let alone being touched by it. Touching it may cause a series of cuts on your hands.
This is a sword spider, comparable in size to a pony. In addition to its invulnerable carapace, this grandson's biggest feature is his immunity to toxins.
Pesticides are also poisonous, but they just happened to be ignored.
Aldai was maintaining the wind-making spell, and when she saw this, she had to interrupt the spell and retreat.
The huge body of the sword spider hit the floor, leaving eye-catching scratches on the solid ground. If it fell on a person, the body would be bloody and bloody on the spot.
Not just sword spiders, there are many species of spiders that are immune to toxins. The three of them immediately saw the piles of spider corpses shaking slightly, as if there were still living spiders trying to crawl out.
There are spiders blocking the way in front and mercenaries chasing after you. It’s a very troublesome situation.
However, there are priorities. The mercenaries are still trying to find ways to cross the sword barrier. The sword spider in front of them is a bigger problem.
The sword spider assumed a predatory posture, leaning forward slightly and pressing down, like a spring full of strength.
Spiders' feet have extremely efficient hydraulic devices. Even though most spiders only crawl, in fact, the jumping power of spiders exceeds that of most mammals.
The sword spider's sharp carapace left deep ravines on the ground. Aldai and the three of them also waited attentively. As soon as the sword spider launched an attack, they would immediately start to counterattack.
At this moment of imminent danger, a soft 'click' sound suddenly came from the Sword Spider's feet.
The three of them saw that the Sword Spider seemed to have stepped on a movable brick that would press down...
The slight sound of gears turning broke into the ears of the three of them. Almost at the same time, a square hole opened in the ceiling, and a huge rolling stone fell from the sky, hitting the sword spider on its head.
Its proud carapace can stop swords from slashing, and even magic will be deflected when it hits it, but compared with a rolling stone that is almost two people tall, it is still incomparable.
Like a small insect being crushed to death, the sword spider's carapace was broken and its internal organs were squeezed out by the weight of the rolling stone.
Even a spider with tenacious vitality will definitely not be able to survive after being hit this time.
But there is a small problem.
The rolling stone seems to be moving towards Aldai and the others...
