Chapter 11 First Battle
Faced with the attack of the spider Orphnoch, Zhao Kai had no choice but to cross his arms to block it. However, at the moment of collision, Zhao Kai felt a tremendous force strike him, as if he had been hit by a speeding truck, and his body was involuntarily thrown backward.
After witnessing this scene, Liu Ming and his two companions knew that they couldn't let the spider Orphnoch escape if he appeared. They didn't care about Zhao Kai's condition anymore and quickly attacked the spider Orphnoch with their short knives.
Unfortunately, the spider Orphnoch was agile and easily dodged their blades. Seeing this, Liu Ming decisively drew his gun and fired fiercely at the spider Orphnoch.
However, the spider Orphnoch cleverly deflected the bullets using its spider legs, and at the same time used the opportunity to create distance between them and escape towards the stairwell.
However, the other two Leo cavalrymen would not let the spider Orphnoch succeed so easily. While the spider Orphnoch was dodging bullets, one of the Leo cavalrymen had already quietly circled around to the stairwell and successfully blocked its path.
At that moment, the Leo cavalryman suddenly appeared from the side and slashed the spider Orphnoch hard in the chest with his dagger. The force of the blow caused the spider Orphnoch to fall to the ground and roll into the office next door. Liu Ming and another Leo cavalryman quickly arrived and surrounded him.
The three men, armed with short knives, pressed closer and closer, cornering the spider Orphnoch against the wall. Liu Ming said, "If you give up now, you might still have a chance to survive."
Orphnoch the Spider clutched his chest and said, "The battle is not over yet, isn't it too early to talk about giving up?" With that, he suddenly opened his mouth and instantly sprayed out a large amount of highly sticky spider silk, which surged towards the three of them like a tide.
At the same time, he turned around, smashed the office window, and jumped downstairs.
Upon seeing this, Liu Ming and his two companions hurriedly swung their knives to cut the spider silk, then quickly ran to the window to check the situation. They saw that the spider Orphnoch was using the power of the silk to sway from the eighth floor all the way down to the third floor.
"Oh no! The cavalry are still down there. You two go down and support them. I'll go find Zhao Kai," Liu Ming said urgently.
The other two team members nodded and ran downstairs without hesitation, while Liu Ming turned around and searched for the direction where Zhao Kai had been knocked away.
Meanwhile, the cavalry, who were leading their team to rescue citizens on the third floor of the office building, also received a message from the command center that Orphnoch the Spider had been wounded by Leo's cavalry and was fleeing toward the third floor, and that reinforcements would not arrive for some time.
Upon hearing this, Ma Dui's expression changed. He then looked back and saw some civilians still fleeing in panic. Ma Dui quickly made a decision, drew his gun, and said to his team members, "Leave five men to continue evacuating the civilians. The rest of you come with me to hold off Orphino."
"Yes!" the remaining team members answered in unison. They immediately sprang into action, forming a tight defensive line to prepare for the approaching enemy.
Just then, the spider Orphnoch suddenly burst in through a window. It was incredibly fast, catching everyone off guard.
Seeing this, the cavalry shouted, "Fire!" In an instant, countless bullets rained down on the spider Orphnoch, some of which contained neurotoxins. Once these bullets hit their target, they would temporarily incapacitate the Orphnoch.
Faced with such a dense attack, the spider Orphnoch could only try its best to defend itself, but several neurotoxin bullets still struck it. It roared in pain, struggling as it fled behind the wall.
Finally, after being hit by several neurotoxin bullets, it managed to hide behind a wall.
However, the cavalry knew this was only a temporary respite; they had to find a way to completely eliminate this Orphnoch.
"Damn it, these bullets hurt so much. If this keeps up, we'll all be dead today." Spider Orphnoch thought to himself as he saw Ma Mingzhe directing the team and said, "Looks like we'll have to use this tactic."
He adjusted his position and then used the spider silk to swing out from the other side of the wall with astonishing speed.
Before anyone could react, he had already grabbed Ma Mingzhe from the crowd and shouted, "If you don't want anything to happen to him, get out of my way right now!"
Ma Mingzhe was about to say something when Orphnoch the Spider grabbed his throat, rendering him speechless. Seeing this, the others had no choice but to make way for him.
However, just as the spider Orphnoch was about to reach the exit with Ma Mingzhe as a hostage, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side and kicked the spider Orphnoch against the wall. This sudden turn of events surprised everyone.
Upon seeing this, the members of the action team immediately pulled Ma Mingzhe over. After coughing a few times, Ma Mingzhe turned to look in the direction of the spider Orphnoch.
Where the spider Orphnoch had been standing, now stood an armored vehicle resembling a Leo cavalryman. However, this armored vehicle differed from ordinary Leo cavalrymen. It had two large compound eyes on its head, a strong metallic texture, and unknown red photon conduits flowing across its surface, like blood.
On the other side, the spider Orphnoch got up from the ground and roared angrily, "Who are you? Why are you stopping me?"
However, the mysterious armor showed no sign of response, silently taking out a circular device from its waist and inserting it into the right leg armor.
Then, he gently opened the flip-top-like surface in the middle of his belt, clicked one of the buttons, and instantly, a powerful energy was transmitted from the photon conduits on the armor surface to the circular armor plate on his right leg, emitting a heart-stopping light.
Immediately afterwards, a clear mechanical voice rang out:
ExceedCharge [Armor Filling]
With that sound, the armored figure crouched down and, using the ground's momentum, leaped high into the air towards the spider Orphnoch.
At the same time, a red laser beam shot out from the circular device on its right leg, forming a huge red drill shape in front of the spider Orphnoch.
CrimsonSmash [Deep Red Electric Drill]
Another mechanical sound rang out, and the armored figure rushed towards the spider Orphnoch like lightning.
At that moment, time seemed to freeze. Only the figure of the red-glowing drill and the armored figure flashed through the space. Finally, the armored figure kicked through the body of the spider Orphnoch with the red drill, passing through his body without any resistance.
The armor landed smoothly on the ground, and the red drill disappeared as quickly as lightning.
The spider Orphnoch stared wide-eyed in disbelief at its body being pierced through before exploding into a pile of sand scattered on the ground.
By the time Ma Mingzhe and his team members recovered from the flashes of the explosion, the figure in the red armor was nowhere to be found.
