Chapter 57: 49. No need for deconstruction
Translator: 549690339
Faced with the spider monster’s interrogation and coercion, Noland Lee knew that he could not betray the Imperial Army for the time being and reveal any information about the “Broken Coffin” plan.
Not for any glory of the Empire, nor for any mission of an Imperial Man.
As a newcomer Traveler, he had no deep- rooted stance or concept.
The only reason that made him temporarily submit was “Strength.”
On the side of the Imperial Army, Captain Marsha Murphy was in charge, but the Death Herald Guild and the Undead Cult had not arranged any other trump cards at the scene – at least Noland Lee had not discovered them yet.
Under such circumstances, any rational Traveler would not try to please the spider monster in front of them while knowing that there are powerful people hidden in the Army.
But…
The spider monster didn’t know what kind of powerful enemies were hidden within the Imperial Army.
It just wanted to extract information from Noland’s mouth.
Seeing that Noland showed somberness and some fear but was unwilling to reveal any secrets, the spider monster sneered mockingly and said:
“I didn’t expect this Sin Soldier to be so loyal. Heh. Aren’t you afraid to die, Sin Soldier No. 888? My spider silk can easily slit your throat and kill you or torture you slowly like a blade…”
As the spider monster was speaking, in the dark not far away, the voices of Mike Adams and others came:
“Jarvis- Jarvis- Where are you-”
“Damn, Captain Mars is gone, and Jarvis is missing too… How did they both disappear without making a sound at all..”
“We’d better not split up in search. Both of them vanished after they were alone. Maybe it’s the Cavern Stalkers who took them…”
“Jarvis- Where are you- Captain Mars- Can you hear us?”
Noland Lee glanced back, barely seeing the silhouette of Mike Adams and the other two.
His own field of view had been artificially raised a bit, but the field of view of the three of Mike Adams remained the same.
So even if Noland had been able to see them, they couldn’t see him at all.
The spider monster said sinisterly:
“You don’t have to tell me who taught you the Undead Runes; it’s fine. I’ll make you talk, or I’ll make Mars talk.”
The spider silk cocoon that wrapped Corporal Mars opened a gap, and the upper half of Corporal Mars’ face was exposed, but the mask of his mouth was still firmly sealed by the spider web, unable to open>.
Corporal Mars was frantically signaling to Noland with his eyes, filled with the meaning of generously sacrificing his life – Go! Jarvis! Go! Don’t worry about me!
Before Noland had any chance to take action, the spider monster opened its mouthparts and vomited three times in succession.
Three bundles of sticky spider web draw parabolas in the air, landing around Sergeant Mike Adams and the other two one after another, forming a spiderweb cage, trapping the three of them inside.
“What the hell is this? I can’t move my feet!”
“It’s a spiderweb! …We’re in trouble! We’ve run into Cavern Evil Spiders!”
“No wonder Mars and Jarvis are gone, they must have been captured by this guy!’
The spider monster let out a hearty moan.
It raised its head, grinning and shouted:
“You two watch, I am going to eat the three Imperial Soldiers right in front of you! Hehehe!”
With its eight spider legs moving rapidly, the spider monster took a tick-tock dance step on the vertical wall, bypassing Noland and rushing straight towards Mike Adams and the other two behind him.
Noland seized the opportunity and tried to rescue Corporal Mars.
However, as soon as he took a step forward, his back leg was suddenly wrapped in a spiderweb, firmly fixed in place.
“Just stay there and watch! Sin Soldier 888! You’re not going anywhere! Just enjoy my bloody feast honestly!”
The sharp laughter frightened everyone. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Seeing the oncoming monster, Mike Adams and the other two panicked, raising their guns and shooting.
Corporal Mars, like a squid on a scorching hot iron plate, fiercely twisted his body, wanting to break free from the binding of the spiderweb cocoon.
Noland exhibited the quality of “calmer in danger” and became the only person on the scene who remained calm.
He narrowed his eyes to look at the spiderweb that bound his leg and found countermeasures without having to cast Deconstruction after some thinking!
He put down his short-barreled rifle, flipped the backpack on his back to the front, pulled the zipper open, and quickly rummaged through it with his head down.
“Found it!”
Noland Lee pulled out an iron kettle from his bag, unscrewed the cap, and poured the liquid inside on his heel.
Within just two seconds, more than half of the spider web had disappeared.
Noland Lee exerted force on his thigh, stomped the ground with his back foot, and successfully freed himself from the web’s restraint.
Seeing this, Corporal Mars was overjoyed.
A strong smell of the liquid invaded his nostrils, and he immediately understood what was going on. Noland Lee had used a protease-rich potion. Corporal Mars was drenched with the potion from head to toe in Noland Lee’s hands.
As soon as he could speak, he praised:
“You really are a teaching assistant! You managed to find a solution in such a short time! …Hurry, hurry, open my jacket pocket, there’s a special copper whistle inside, blow it quickly!”
Noland Lee quickly tore open the spider web in front of the corporal’s chest and took out an antique-style copper whistle.
Noland Lee removed his breathing mask and blew forcefully.
The ball inside the whistle was driven by the air flow, spinning wildly, but no high-pitched and piercing sound came out.
“Is this whistle broken!?” Noland Lee put his mask back on, looked at the copper whistle in his palm, and was at a loss.
“It’s not broken, it’s not! The sound it makes is just inaudible to us.”
Mars mustered all his strength, finally breaking free from the gradually dissolving spider web.
He grabbed his rifle, lifted it up, and shot at the spider monster:
“Monster! Your enemy is me! Jarvis, keep blowing the whistle, keep blowing! Someone will come to save us soon! This whistle is specially prepared for intermediate undead forces!”
Noland Lee continued to lift his mask, blowing the whistle with great effort.
Bullets clattered all over the spider monster, but they were like peanuts hitting a stone, bouncing off and rattling on the stone brick ground.
At this moment, the spider monster was in the midst of inflicting torture on the soldiers in front of it, fully engaged in its bloody killing spree.
After this barrage of gunfire, it fell into a state of rage, the red light in its eyes flared up like headlights.
“You two bastards, dare to interrupt my meal!”
The spider monster raised its head:
“Now die! I will dig out your hearts and chew them up in one bite!”
The spider monster screeched incessantly, abandoned the three soldiers in front of it, and turned towards Mars and Noland Lee.
“Plop plop plop!”
Several webs were ejected from its mouth, flying towards Noland Lee and Mars one after another.
Noland Lee rolled sideways and narrowly avoided the volley of webs, with the copper whistle still clenched in his mouth. It wasn’t until he couldn’t hold his breath any longer that he put his mask back on.
With a slight bend of its eight legs, the spider monster leaped into the air, like an eagle swooping down on its prey, aiming at the just-straightened soldier:
“Die! Die! I will eat your brain!”
Noland Lee and Mars had just reloaded their bullets, and they immediately dodged and shot, smashing bullets into the enemy’s body.
“Boom!”
A sudden burst of noise came from the side, and a red pillar of flame pierced through the shattered stonewall, targeting the spider monster suspended in mid-air and getting bombarded with bullets.
The spider monster’s face changed drastically.
It quickly contracted its abdomen, pulling on the spider silk connected to the ceiling.
With the pulling ot the spider silk, it quickly soared upward and disappeared into the darkness.
The flame pillar brushed past the spider monster from below.
The intense heat distorted the light and shadows, but it didn’t hurt the monster at all.
As soon as the spider monster left, Noland Lee’s field of vision reverted to normal, and he could only see the scenery within a meter or two of him..
