Chapter 1083: The True Form of the Decoy
As Ling Mo was locked in place, Sun Xuâs presence was immediately exposed from his hiding spot. However, he seemed completely unaware, remaining motionless in his position, only wearing a cold smile as he gazed in Ling Moâs directionâŠ
âLing-Ge, I found him!â Xia Naâs figure flashed out from the darkness, quickly reporting to Ling Mo.
At the same moment, Ye Lian and the other two swiftly retreated, disengaging from their confrontation with He Zhen and his group. Two seconds later, their figures appeared simultaneously at both ends of a high beam, and they were all focused on a figure lying in the middle of the beamâŠ
Sun Xuâs movements resembled those of a real spider. Upon hearing four consecutive âwhooshâ sounds around him, he merely turned his head slowly, glancing at each of them before speaking, âFinally, we meet. You were sent by him to catch me, werenât you? Pretending to prepare an ambush on that group below, but actually waiting for me to show a flaw. So, the commotion from his side wasnât because he planned to act with you, but to deliberately lure me out?â
âSince you already know, why waste so many words? Trying to stall for time to find a solution? I advise you to save your energy and take a good look at your situation first,â Xia Na replied coldly.
Facing the enemy, these four female zombies had no intention of concealing their presence.
Although their eye color remained unchanged, as Xia Naâs scythe sliced through the air with a âwhoosh,â forming a semicircle, the feeling these four zombies gave off changed dramatically.
When they stood there earlier, they merely seemed somewhat dangerous, but as their gaze turned cold and ruthless, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop by ten degrees instantly. As the target of their hostility, Sun Xu appeared somewhat surprised.
He looked at them in astonishment, then slowly put away his smile, replaced by a complex expression: âI really didnât expect this⊠If you werenât so determined to resist, I would have liked to invite you to join us. Although you donât have spiders within you, the feeling you give off now is somewhat similar to that of spiders. This puzzles me. And judging by your energetic appearance, you donât seem like those who fought us earlier, right? So, in your team, at least half of you possess formidable combat abilities. No wonder youâre so defiant, even continuing to fight us after my warningâŠâ
âWhat kind of warning was that?â Xia Na interrupted impatiently.
âWhat?â Sun Xu was taken aback, reflexively asking. He was referring, of course, to the matter of the granaryâs destruction, but why did the other party seem completely unconcerned? Little did he know, the few members among them who had no interest in the granary were all standing before him now. Hence, Xia Naâs unfeigned attitude made him slightly doubt his judgment.
âIf not for that, why are you so determined to fight us to the end?â Sun Xu asked.
Xia Na rolled her eyes, then answered matter-of-factly, âObviously, itâs for Zhang She, whom you killed!â Before her words had fully fallen, Xia Naâs figure flickered, and the next moment, she appeared abruptly in front of Sun Xu. Simultaneously, three other gusts of wind swiftly approached Sun Xu from three different directions, forming a complete encirclement.
The timing of their attack was perfectly synchronized, and their speed was astonishingly fast. With Xia Na distracting him, Sun Xu had almost no escape! In fact, by the time he reacted, all his escape routes were already blocked. However, what made Xia Na frown lightly was that Sun Xu didnât show any signs of panic. On the contrary, he slightly curled his lips into a strange smile.
Whoosh!
Just as the scythe was about to strike, Sun Xu suddenly vanished from his spot⊠Despite being surrounded on all sides, he chose to jump downâŠ
âIs he seeking death?â Li Yalin glanced down and couldnât help but comment. Sun Xu placed himself in mid-air, effectively abandoning any chance of resistance. With the strength of these four female zombies, they could easily dismember him before he hit the ground. Although he didnât know their identities, he should have realized from their surprise attack that their combat abilities were far from what he had estimated.
âNo, he⊠he has another plan!â Ye Lian shook her head, whispering. Her pupils had begun to contract rapidly, and she was the only one who saw clearly in that instant that Sun Xu wasnât simply jumping down, but was descending like a giant spider, suspended by numerous strands of Spider Silk.
âStop him!â Xia Na and Li Yalin reacted simultaneously, raising their hands to slash at the beam below. However, as the Spider Silk was severed, Sun Xu swung forward, landing on a piece of machinery not far away.
As the women leapt down after him, Sun Xuâs figure swiftly vanished into the darkness. This time, they all saw it clearly; Sun Xuâs movement had almost transcended human limits. He used both his hands and feet, leaping over obstacles like a jumping spider.
âTrying to run?â Yu Shiran snorted, somewhat smugly extending a finger. The tip of her finger had begun to heal, but a small cut was still faintly visible.
âI sprinkled a drop of blood on him. He wonât get away. Let him exhaust himself running; itâs a waste of energy,â Yu Shiran said confidently.
âWho knew you could be useful for something other than selling out teammatesâŠâ Xia Na remarked.
Li Yalin then grabbed two spiders from beneath the beam. Their shells were pure black, seemingly not very venomous. But when picked up, each had a long strand of Spider Silk trailing from its abdomen. Li Yalin tugged the silk twice, then widened her eyes and said, âIt stretches and contracts, very elastic⊠and not easy to break.â
âThis strength could easily suspend a full-grown human,â Xia Na observed, noticing that their vitality was rapidly diminishing. Soon, they curled up, stiff and motionless.
âBut⊠their lifespan is very short,â Ye Lian silently added to their analysis.
Xia Na pondered for a moment, then suddenly tossed the spiders aside, saying, âNo, we need to catch up with him! He might have already realized Shiranâs trick, and not hiding was just an act for us! Just like earlier, his tone clearly anticipated this outcome. If thatâs the case, why did he willingly fall for it? Ling-Ge might have intentionally revealed himself because he knew this! Unfortunately, none of us know why heâs doing this⊠But one thing is certain, his plan isnât as simple as it seems!â
Meanwhile, Ling Mo was quietly gazing into the darkness: âWhat exactly are you planning? By now, it should be revealed, rightâŠâ
He didnât understand Sun Xuâs true intentions, but the fact that it gave him this feeling indicated there was something fishy behind it. Most importantly, the Mother Spider had yet to appear, leaving Ling Mo uneasy⊠Ćđđœá»ÎÆÈ
BoomâŠ
A few seconds later, a slight tremor suddenly came from beneath everyoneâs feet. Following that, even the entire factory shook slightlyâŠ
Whether it was caused by the tremor or not⊠for a moment, everyone inside the factory heard a âcreak creakâ sound rapidly approaching from afar.
âWhat is that sound?â He Zhen and the others stood nervously and fearfully in place. Upon hearing the noise, they couldnât help but jump in fright.
âAn earthquake?â
âImpossibleâŠâ
âSomething⊠is comingâŠâ He Zhen turned his pale face towards the wall outside, murmuring.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a massive muffled sound exploded within the factory.
Amidst flying mud and shattered iron, a colossal figure suddenly emerged from underground, appearing inside the factory. It had barely appeared before it raised its two front spider legs, slamming them heavily into the dust-shrouded area ahead. Its arrival was sudden, and its attack was swift and powerful. Ye Lian and the others, who were tracking Sun Xu, turned their heads almost simultaneously, their pupils shrinking in shockâŠ
That was⊠where Ling Mo was!
The real decoy wasnât He Zhen and his group, but Sun Xu himself! Ling Mo and the othersâ actions, once manipulated by him, resulted in his premeditated outcome. Even He Zhen and the others, his companions, were unaware of thisâŠ
âThis time, heâs definitely dead.â Sun Xu paused, his face calm as he looked towards where the Mother Spider had appeared, âItâs a pity I never got to meet him.â Though he said it was a pity, his eyes showed a hint of boredom. In this situation, those girls probably wouldnât have the heart to chase him anymoreâŠ
âBoom!â
The Mother Spiderâs power was terrifying. Not only was the area it hit severely damaged, but even the surrounding machinery suffered significant destruction, with the central machine table completely split in half. Under such an impact, survival for a human was impossible. Just hearing the commotion was enough for everyone to imagine the grim scene.
But as the smoke cleared, behind the Mother Spider, a silhouette suddenly appearedâŠ
