Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 21 Seduction

Inside a dilapidated building about one kilometer from the convenience store where the Ghost Face Spider was located, the members of the Wind Chaser Squad were gathered together discussing tactics to deal with the Ghost Face Spider.

The intermediate-level Beast General-level Ghost Face Spider's combat power is average. As long as you avoid its venomous fang attacks and spider web traps, it's not difficult for the Wind Chaser Squad to deal with it together. The difficulty lies in how to be careful not to damage the spider web behind it.

That's the most expensive material produced by the Ghostface Spider; it's no exaggeration to say that an inch of spider web is worth an inch of gold!

"We need to lure that ghost-faced spider out first; we can't fight near its web."

Lei Hong pointed out the key point.

Combat suits made from the silk of the Ghoul Spider are naturally tough and strong, with amazing protection, but that requires special treatment of the spider web and the addition of other auxiliary materials to achieve the desired effect.

Although untreated spider webs are quite tough, they can still be damaged by weapons when used in combat.

Lei Hong glanced at the team members, but finally fixed his gaze on Zhou Yang.

"Zhou Yang, this task can only be entrusted to you."

His arrangement was also the result of careful consideration.

After all, if the person responsible for luring them is too strong, the Ghost Spider won't fall for it.

However, if one is too weak, there is no guarantee that one can escape unscathed from the attack of the Ghost Spider.

After looking at all these candidates, Zhou Yang really is the most suitable.

His physical attributes were just at the beginner level, which would not arouse the Ghost-Faced Spider's fear, and his strength was enough to ensure his own safety.

Upon hearing Lei Hong's words, Zhou Yang didn't hesitate at all and nodded in agreement:

"Leave it to me, Uncle Lei, I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"

"Um."

Lei Hong nodded, then added:

"After Zhou Yang lures out the Ghost-Faced Spider, Lao Zhou, Lao Liu, Chen Chong, get your shields ready and block its way back to its lair until Zhou Yang and I take care of it!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Zhou Yong and the other two nodded in agreement.

Lei Hong then looked at Zhu Xia and solemnly instructed her:

"Zhu Xia, your sniper rifle is ready. Also, keep an eye on your surroundings and report any activity immediately."

Lei Hong quickly arranged the combat mission. After confirming the details, he led Zhou Yong, Lao Liu, and Chen Chong to take the lead.

They took a long detour, using the surrounding abandoned buildings as cover, and quietly approached the convenience store where the ghost-faced spider was located from both sides.

It took them more than ten minutes to gradually approach the location, which was about 200 meters away from the convenience store.

Fearing to disturb the ghost spiders inside, they dared not approach any further and temporarily hid in nearby buildings.

Lei Hong gestured in this direction from afar.

"Sister Xia, I'm going. Be careful."

Seeing Lei Hong's gesture, Zhou Yang gave Zhu Xia some instructions, then picked up the black starry sky spear and walked out of the building where he was hiding.

He pretended to be a lone hunter, cautiously observing his surroundings as he made his way along the dilapidated street.

He soon approached the convenience store where the ghost spider was hiding.

He focused all his attention and quietly released his mental energy, covering an area of ​​about 100 meters around him. Then he took a deep breath and continued walking forward.

Sensing with his mental powers, the ghost-faced spider silently slid down the web, its compound eyes fixed on the entrance of the convenience store, poised to ambush him, clearly having already spotted him.

"Squeak!"

The moment Zhou Yang arrived at the entrance of the convenience store, a sharp whistling sound rang out, followed by a blurry white object flying towards him!

Zhou Yang reacted quickly, pushing off the ground with both feet. A powerful force suddenly erupted from his feet, propelling him forward at an extremely fast speed, narrowly avoiding the attack.

"puff!"

The white object hit the spot where he had been standing. He looked closely and realized it was a small white spider web, which looked somewhat similar to the web bombs that Spider-Man throws in the movies.

"squeak!"

Seeing that its sneak attack had failed, the ghost-faced spider behind the convenience store door stopped hiding. Using the elasticity of its web, it leaped lightly with its eight slender legs, and its huge body transformed into a blurry afterimage as it rushed towards Zhou Yang outside the door.

The intermediate-level Beast General-level Ghost Face Spider was extremely fast, arriving in front of Zhou Yang almost in the blink of an eye.

He had no time to dodge, so he could only raise the black spear in his hand and thrust it forward quickly. At the same time, the first level of "World Destruction" suddenly erupted, and with the double power, the speed of the spear suddenly soared.

"clang!"

Perhaps sensing the power of the shot, the charging ghost spider extended its two front spears, directly blocking the attack.

Zhou Yang's basic punching power has now exceeded 10,000 kilograms. With the first level of "World Destruction" and double the power, this spear strike has reached a force of more than 20,000 kilograms, which is comparable to the attack power of an ordinary mid-level warrior!

However, this powerful spear struck the Ghostface Spider's spear as if it had hit a piece of S-grade alloy. The Ghostface Spider only paused slightly, but was completely unharmed.

But that was enough. Taking advantage of the momentary pause in the Ghost Spider, Zhou Yang quickly turned around and ran towards the building across the intersection.

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

After its attacks failed, the ghost-faced spider instantly became agitated. With a light flick of its eight powerful legs, it leaped forward at a terrifying speed.

This time, Zhou Yang was prepared; his mental power had already locked onto the Ghost Face Spider.

The moment the spider leaped up, he slammed his right leg into the ground, turning rapidly to the left.

"Boom!"

The giant face spider slammed heavily onto the ground, and Zhou Yang narrowly avoided its pounce.

He dared not linger and continued to flee rapidly forward.

The ghost-faced spider was naturally unwilling to let go of its prey that had come to it, and continued to chase after it with a shriek.

Zhou Yang used the same tactic as before: whenever the ghost spider leaped up to pounce, he would quickly turn around and use the momentum to dodge the spider's attack.

It was thanks to his mental powers that he could lock onto the Ghost Spider's movements without any blind spots, allowing him to anticipate and dodge in advance.

If it were another beginner-level warrior, they probably wouldn't have been able to dodge so easily.

The spider and the man quickly covered a distance of four or five hundred meters in pursuit.

At that moment, Lei Hong's slightly excited voice came through Zhou Yang's earphones.

"We're far enough away! Zhou, you three, hurry up and block the door! Zhou Yang, move closer, let's take care of that guy together!"

As the sound faded, Zhou Yang saw four dark figures rush out of the buildings beside the street.

Three of them rushed towards the convenience store where the Ghost Spider had been hiding, wielding sturdy alloy shields and blocking the entrance.

Meanwhile, another figure, wielding a shield and holding a sharp alloy longsword in his right hand, rushed towards him at high speed.
