Chapter 2058 Ultimate Incendiary Bomb

"Ughhhhhh—Are you kidding me?!"

Depp carried Angel as they ran, with countless mixed spider monsters of all sizes trailing behind them.

"Stop talking nonsense and focus on running!"

Angel roared as he loaded the Silver Goat Skeleton Hand Shotgun, and a single Dragon's Breath round wiped out a swarm of mixed spider monsters.

After Depp stylishly resurrected the monster's corpse as an undead soldier, the situation spiraled out of control.

Hybrid spiders possess the ability to produce offspring with the genes of the ingested target after feeding, and they can produce two different types of eggs.

One type is the spider eggs destroyed by the sulfurous gas released by Angel's Dragon Breath Bomb. These spider eggs take longer to hatch and mature, which is normal reproduction.

Another method is a hybrid of the spider monsters' current techniques, similar to creating familiars. The spider eggs produced hatch and mature quickly, and although their lifespan is short, their numbers are overwhelming.

Most importantly, hybrid spider monsters don't have any mother-child bond; they will immediately eat any newly hatched hybrid spider monsters nearby and start reproducing again.

This is not only to replenish the energy consumed in laying eggs, but also to select genes. Inferior hybrid spider monsters will be used as food, while superior hybrid spider monsters will escape.

This process repeats itself, creating a terrifying cycle in which the number of hybrid spider monsters increases and their strength grows.

Fortunately, monsters killed by players as the Blessed Ones vanish into dust, leaving behind a soul fire that is absorbed into their genes to produce the next generation. Even the most powerful hybrid spider monsters are not so overpowered as to consume soul fire.

Unfortunately, unless it's instantly killed, the injured individual will immediately become food for other hybrid spider monsters, nourishment for their maturity, or produce genes for the next generation.

This is where Depp dragged things down. As the Undead King, he has a passive skill that turns slain enemies into undead soldiers, which is normally an extremely overpowered ability. But now, it's like preserving the hybrid spider monster, which immediately devoured the undead soldiers and turned them into nutrients.

Even if Depp summons skeleton soldiers, they will become food and be devoured clean.

Depp, the undead king who embodies death, is utterly defeated by the lustful spider monster that symbolizes the uncontrolled proliferation of life. All he can do is carry Angel and move at high speed.

Compared to Depp, Angel is much more reliable.

The extremely high level of vice accumulated through various acts of violence corrupted all of Angel's professions and skills, transforming them into pseudo-vile professions.

【Holy Prayer Master LV5】, a high-level faith-based profession in the Holy Cross Kingdom, whose specialty is purifying holy flames. In Angel's hands, the white purifying holy flames turn black and spread like liquid.

This is the pollution caused by the Bad Deeds value, which reverses the nature of all professions and skills. Healing prayers will become prayers that inflict negative status effects, while prayers that originally inflicted negative status effects will become even more dangerous.

Angel unleashed a torrent of dragon breath, followed by the corrupted [Holy Prayer] skill, which transformed the flames into black liquid cursed flames that burned the mixed spider monster.

Other hybrid spider monsters that try to hunt will be caught in the crossfire and burned along with the prey.

But this only temporarily suppressed the hybrid spider monsters. As a spider nest primarily driven by lust and reproduction, it has no shortage of monsters. The number of hybrid spider monsters is endless. No matter how many are burned to death, the number of monsters has not decreased at all. In fact, as they run deeper into the spider nest, their numbers are increasing.

The only saving grace was that the average level of the mature hybrid spider monsters hovered around LV120, while the smaller hybrid spider monsters were only around LV50, which was still within their tolerance range. Looking at the hybrid spider monsters surging in from all directions, almost forming a monster tsunami, Depp couldn't help but complain.

"I really want a doomsday bomb! Detonating it here would be so awesome!"

"Don't even think about it. That kind of thing will only be very troublesome and difficult to deal with in the hands of the enemy. If it falls into our hands, it will either be unusable due to the geographical environment, or its only effect will be to delay time. It will never happen that it can solve the problem."

Angel loaded the last dragon breath round, turned around, and fired at the darkness in front of Depp.

The firework, transformed into a dragon shape, burst forth like a drop of water falling into a silent, deep pool, instantly illuminating the densely packed, mixed spider monsters that made up the darkness itself.

“It really is a hidden paradise.” Angel didn’t hesitate to take out the Emergency Escape Device. “Let’s give up going deeper. This is not an area that the two of us can explore.”

“Okay.” Depp didn’t hesitate and immediately took out the [Emergency Escape Device].

This is why Angel, even though he doesn't like Depp, is willing to team up with him. In this situation, the other members would never choose to run away, but would grit their teeth and continue fighting, and the result is usually that they become food for the mixed spider monsters, or even enhancement materials.

These are all classic tactics.

But Depp is different; he runs away without hesitation, even if he doesn't reach the deepest part of the spider's lair.

"But before I leave, I still have to leave them with some excitement!" Depp opened the warehouse, took out a huge warhead, and punched it, starting the countdown.

Ultimate Incendiary Bomb RXIII

[A one-time-use bomb created by the sage Chiron. It can be manually activated or launched as a missile. While possessing extremely destructive power, it only releases heat energy and does not cause irreversible damage to the geological structure.]

Enjoy yourself, goodbye!

Depp and Angel simultaneously activated their emergency teleportation devices, escaping the spider's lair in the lake. The lair returned to calm, with only a human-sized warhead performing a cold countdown.

The hybrid spider monsters circled the warhead curiously, neither smelling the blood nor sensing any danger.

They communicated with squeaks, then received some kind of signal, lifted the warhead, and carried it deeper into the spider's nest.

A much larger spider monster, whose hindquarters were entirely made of azure lake water, occupied the deepest part of the nest. Floating in its lake-water-formed lower body were countless very special fetuses.

The egg-laying spider-like monsters are undergoing the transformation into viviparous creatures.

The spider-like monster slowly approached the warhead, puzzled by the unknown object left behind by the intruders.

The countdown reaches zero at this moment.
