Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

In the game, its cultivation level is at the fifth realm, and its vitality is extremely strong, but its attack ability is not particularly outstanding.

Despite being a "monster," the headhunter spider is actually not very intelligent.

Actions rely heavily on instinct rather than experience or wisdom, and they are not difficult to deal with.

"It looks exactly like the one in the encyclopedia. How disgusting."

Shinjiro put his arm around Zuo Chang's shoulder and shared his thoughts.

The bunny girl deeply agreed. She frowned and said, "Brother Deer... how come this spider has so many human faces on it... how scary!"

On the headhunter spider's oval abdomen, hundreds of human faces are densely packed together.

These faces include both old and young people, and they sometimes cry and sometimes laugh.

Every face is alive. Those devoured by the Headhunter Spider do not die; their bodies are digested, while their heads coexist with the monster like pearls or gems, embedded in the Headhunter Spider's abdomen.

A hundred faces, a hundred voices.

Sometimes they laughed maniacally, sometimes they wept loudly. Mourning whispers, vicious curses—a hundred voices converged, forming a twisted and bizarre frenzy…

This is not just a visual shock, but also a test of the soul.

Zuo Chang watched this unfold and thought to himself, "The game graphics were already crazy enough, but seeing and hearing it with my own eyes and ears is truly... indescribable."

Lu Zheng was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see this scene.

He asked, "Zuo Chang, what's the next step?"

"That's easy, you guys just stand there for a while."

Zuo Chang gave the order and jumped down from the wooden box.

Besides the human cocoon, there was also a gray iron chariot in the warehouse.

Zuo Chang walked closer and tore off the canvas covering the dust, revealing a fully armored steel monster with eight pairs of wheels underneath!

After a brief glance, the tank quickly displayed the following information:

"Arsonist Chariot"

Zuo Chang walked around the chariot and soon discovered a magic circle at the rear. There was a dent in the circle, as if something was missing.

He took a crystal from his pocket and placed it inside—

This is the mysterious crystal that was previously placed in a treasure chest with the ancient crystal in the armory at the entrance of the instance; it is an energy stone.

Its shape is exactly the same as the dent on the chariot, and it is the gem that powers the chariot.

"Click."

A soft meshing sound rang out, and the magic circle at the rear of the chariot flashed!

"The arsonist vehicle has been successfully activated and is executing the pre-programmed procedures. It is now scanning for threats."

"Stained material detected, currently comparing against the database..."

"The filth has been identified as a Level 3 threat, 'Headhunter Spider.' Cleanup procedures are initiating."

"Arsonist, strike!"

The engine roared!

Without any further instructions, the iron-gray chariot sped out of the warehouse and attacked the Headhunter Spider!

Thank you to readers ooz1er and 沉浮咏叹 for the generous donations!

Chapter 88 Let me test my skills

The arsonist was incredibly powerful; the headhunter spider spotted him the instant he burst out of the warehouse.

"Whoosh!"

It opened its mouth and spat out a spider web, which descended upon it.

If it were an ordinary adventurer, they would probably have to dodge at this moment, even if they didn't want to. The spider web of the headhunter spider is extremely sticky, and once you get stuck, even an adventurer at the fifth realm would have to spend a lot of effort to get rid of it.

but……

In terms of sheer impact, the arsonist, a steel behemoth weighing over fifty tons, is far beyond the reach of ordinary Fifth Realm cultivators!

The spiderweb moved like a gentle breeze under its powerful engine, and the arsonist did not pause for a moment, his speed increasing even further!

The two sides were already close to each other, and now they were locked in close combat. The arsonist raised the front of the incendiary tube, and a mechanical voice echoed throughout the area: "Let the flames purify everything!"

Orange flames burst forth, like a fire dragon, scorching the headhunter spider's body!

Undeterred by the danger, the headhunter spider withstood the scorching flames with its own flesh and blood, refusing to retreat an inch. Instead, it opened its mouth and spewed out a glob of strong acid solution, which corroded through the arsonist's armor.

"Zuo Chang, aren't you going to make a move?"

Lu Zheng's palm was already on his sword.

His expression was grave as he continued, "My teacher once said that although the Arsonist Chariot is a technological product of Sky City, it is not a mechanical life form and cannot be compared with the 'Giant Hammer Destroyer' on the second floor! It is no match for the Headhunter Spider!"

Zuo Chang shuddered; his PTSD had flared up!

He turned his head and asked, "Excuse me, but who is your teacher?"

"??"

Why ask this?

Lu Zheng didn't react immediately, but he still said, "Divine Sound Agent. My teacher is the agent of the 'Divine Sound Society,' a powerhouse at the thirteenth realm."

Zuo Chang is not a acquaintance.

However, this does not mean that "Divine Voice Agent" does not recognize him.

He simply said, "Oh! It must be that 'Divine Voice Agent' under the Heavenly King General!"

"??"

Lu Zheng frowned and said, "No, the Divine Sound Society is an organization that split off from the 'Church of Time,' and it was only established in recent years. My teacher has never worked under General Tianwang."

Zuo Chang nodded upon hearing this, secretly laughing at his own neuroticism.

How could there be so many coincidences?

He got back to the point and said, "The arsonist is not powerful enough to kill the headhunter spider, but it can play a crucial role—look closely, isn't the human head part on the headhunter spider's abdomen motionless?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng squinted to look.

really!

The arsonist and the headhunter spider engaged in close combat, one breathing fire and the other spewing acid.

The headhunter spider danced in the flames, seemingly unaffected by the high temperature, its movements unwavering and fluid, spewing acid one drop after another, almost corroding the arsonist down to just a steering wheel.

but……

If you look closely, you can see that the human head on the headhunter spider's abdomen has lost its vitality.

Of the nearly one hundred people, more than half had closed their eyes and shut their mouths, falling into silence.

Zuo Chang continued, "The headhunter spider is very special. The human head on its abdomen can be seen as its 'armor,' and every injury it suffers is first borne by the human head."

Furthermore, the head shield has a unique mechanism:

"Beast Shield": You gain a Beast Shield with 500 health points for each person you consume. When you are about to receive more than 500 damage, remove one Beast Shield to avoid that damage.

It goes without saying how powerful this skill is.

If it weren't for the fact that one absolutely had to eat people to generate a shield, Zuo Chang would also like to learn that.

Lu Zheng seemed to understand but not quite, and asked, "So...we'll only make our move after the arsonists have killed everyone?"

Mayumi jumped off the crate and said, "Zuo Chang, I don't even know what I'm supposed to do. If you already had a strategy, you should have explained it to me yesterday!"

Zuo Chang smiled slightly and said, "My plan is not complicated. You guys... wait here, I'll go test the strength of the Headhunter Spider."

What the heck is standby mode?

Mayumi looked completely bewildered, and the others were equally confused.

"Aow!!"

An angry roar interrupted the conversation.

Zuo Chang turned his head and saw that the human heads on the headhunter spider's abdomen had all closed their eyes. The fire spewed by the arsonist was scorching one of the headhunter spider's legs.

A burning smell filled the air, the Headhunter Spider's shield disappeared, and it was injured!

In excruciating pain, it howled and spat out a large glob of emerald green venom, pouring it onto the arsonist who was riddled with wounds.

Even the flames... have gone out...

Sparks flew everywhere, and the fire tube fell to the ground.

After the fierce battle, the arsonist completely lost his function and became a pile of scrap metal.

The time has come.

Zuo Chang drew his Moon Crown Sword and took a step forward.

The fierce wind howled, stirring up dust that sounded like a tiger's roar.

The swirling wind around Zuo Chang seemed to drape him in a cloud robe, giving him an air of power that seemed to transform into a dragon. Zuo Chang's aura soared into the sky!

Mayumi stared wide-eyed at Zuo Chang's current appearance: "The wind follows the tiger, the clouds follow the dragon?! This... how did your whirlwind become so fierce!"

Lu Zheng was equally surprised!

He was utterly astonished, exclaiming in surprise, "Water and fire, wind and dragon! Only someone who has mastered the Gale Sword Technique to level twelve could achieve such a transformation! Zuo Chang, you... you've mastered level twelve Gale Sword Technique?!"

impossible.

It's impossible!

Others may not know, but doesn't Mayumi know?

How long has Zuo Chang learned the Gale Sword Technique? About a week?

How could one master the Gale Sword Technique to level 12 in such a short time?

Arabian Nights!
