After killing another 39 Spiderlings, Nan Feng would reach level 5!
Swish, swish.
Seeing their companions being slaughtered mercilessly, the other Spiderlings flew into a rage and charged at Nan Feng on all eight legs.
In an instant, at least fifty or sixty Spiderlings had surrounded Nan Feng.
Relying on his high attributes, Nan Feng did not flee immediately. Instead, he waited for Piercing Shot to come off cooldown and fired another shot into the swarm!
That shot instantly killed 13 Spiderlings.
"Run!"
Nan Feng got to his feet, knocked off the spiders crawling on him, and hurriedly retreated. The situation had changed; he could no longer stay put and keep pushing for level 5.
In just that brief moment, his Health Points had already dropped by half.
If he stayed for a few more seconds, Nan Feng would become dinner for these little spiders, without even scraps left behind.
Seeing Nan Feng run, even more little spiders turned and chased after him.
A dense black mass of Spiderlings chased Nan Feng out of the cave.
Nan Feng glanced back. Good grief, he had really provoked everyone's wrath.
After rushing out of the cave, Nan Feng opened the Chat Channel and quickly sent Su Ziran a message: "I've drawn away a huge group of Spiderlings. You can decide what to do with the rest yourselves."
Whether they stayed and continued holding their ground or risked their lives to charge out, Nan Feng could not make that decision for them.
The choice was in their own hands.
Deep inside the cave, Su Ziran saw Nan Feng's message and decisively made his choice. "Everyone, get ready. We're charging out!"
Wu Yuansheng was startled. "With so many spiders, how are we supposed to get out? We're just throwing our lives away!"
Huang Yuanming looked at the densely packed spiders around them, his expression hardening. "Staying here means a slow death. Charging out gives us at least a chance!"
Wu Li sliced a Spiderling in half with one stroke, the fat on his face jiggling. "Charge the fuck out!"
The chubby Wu Li took the lead. His two-hundred-pound frame was like a human-shaped tank as he barreled straight out!
"Little sister, heal him once, then charge with me!" Su Ziran stood in front of Su Yihan, clearing a path for her. "The rest of you, hurry and follow!"
"Okay." Su Yihan clutched her staff nervously and quickly followed Su Ziran.
With three people already charging out, how could the rest dare stay behind and wait for death?
"Old Wu, stay behind me!" Xu Ming gritted his teeth, raised his great shield, and charged out, opening the way shoulder to shoulder with the chubby Wu Li.
Swish, swish!
Spiderlings swarmed in from every direction and launched a fierce assault on the group.
But these people were no pushovers either. All of them were already level 4, and they slaughtered the Spiderlings swiftly and ruthlessly. Before long, a huge number of little spiders had died.
However, their Health Points were also plummeting rapidly. Signs of weakness and exhaustion soon appeared among them—negative conditions caused by low Health Points.
Xu Ming was starting to despair. "We can't fucking break out..."
Looking at the densely packed little spiders around them, Yun Fei slowly lowered the hand holding his slingshot. "This run's over. Next run."
Wu Yuansheng was discouraged as well. "Sigh, we're done for."
A hint of loneliness appeared in Su Yihan's cold eyes as she murmured, "I haven't even dated anyone yet. Am I really going to die here? What a shame..."
Among them, only Su Ziran and Wu Chen'an had not given up. They were still desperately charging forward.
Suddenly, Su Ziran looked ahead and breathed a sigh of relief. "Everyone, I think we can still be saved."
Hearing Su Ziran's words, everyone looked ahead by the dim firelight.
The number of Spiderlings ahead had dropped sharply. There were nowhere near enough to stop the team!
Huang Yuanming was overjoyed. "Holy shit, isn't this that thing about flowers and a village?"
Su Yihan gave him a confused look. "Did you mean, 'A bright village beyond the dark willows and blooming flowers'?"
Huang Yuanming nodded repeatedly. "Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's it!"
Seeing hope of survival, everyone seemed to have been injected with adrenaline as they charged out of the encirclement in one burst!
The path ahead was clear!
Su Ziran turned around and silently moved to the back of the group.
Wu Yuansheng gave him a thumbs-up. "Brother, you're a real one. I'm definitely making you my friend."
There was still a huge group of Spiderlings chasing them from behind, and that posed a major threat to the four ranged Chosen Ones.
But Su Ziran's Defense Power had already reached 82 points. These Spiderlings could only deal single-digit damage to him, and as long as he was not surrounded, it would not be fatal.
Moreover, there were no more Spiderlings blocking their path ahead, and the spiders behind would have a hard time catching up.
The group soon arrived at a fork in the road. The corpses of Spiderlings covering the ground around them shocked everyone.
"At least a hundred Spiderlings died here! Who did this? That's insane!"
"No wonder there are so few spiders here. Someone killed them all?"
"Are there other Chosen Ones here?"
Everyone suddenly thought of one missing person—Nan Feng.
The battle had been so tense and intense just now that they had nearly forgotten Nan Feng existed.
Now, seeing the Spiderling corpses all over the ground, they immediately guessed what had happened.
"Brother, were all these spiders... killed by Nan Feng?" A trace of disbelief appeared on Su Yihan's cold face.
"Most likely." Su Ziran nodded. "Nan Feng messaged me earlier and said he had drawn away a huge group of Spiderlings. That's why I decided to charge out."
After a pause, Su Ziran added in surprise, "I didn't expect him to have killed this many too... Was he hiding his strength before?"
In the time it took to say those few words, the group had already rushed out of the cave.
Warm sunlight fell over them, giving them the feeling of being reborn.
"Damn it, we almost died." Xu Ming lowered his great shield and panted heavily.
His Defense Power had already exceeded 90 points. When Spiderlings attacked him, they could only forcibly deduct 1 Health Point, so Xu Ming had taken the most damage. His entire body was covered in spider bite marks.
Su Yihan looked worriedly at the cave behind them. "We should get farther away from the cave. There's still a Cave Spider King inside."
Everyone hurried away from the cave.
"What do we do next?" Wu Yuansheng took out a piece of Fragrant Roasted Meat and began eating it. "I found quite a few iron blocks earlier, but they're all embedded in the cave walls. We'll have to dig them out to get them."
The chubby Wu Li treated his wounds and said, "We can't mine anything without dealing with the Cave Spider King."
Su Ziran nodded faintly. "We need everyone to reach at least level 6 before we have any chance of hunting that lord-class ferocious beast."
"Then let's call it here?" Yun Fei spread his hands. "How about we come back to clear this dungeon after we reach level 6?"
"Works for me."
"No problem."
"Let's go, let's go. Everyone back to their own homes, back to their own moms."
With that, the group dispersed and prepared to leave.
Su Yihan stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance. "Wait, that person over there... is that Nan Feng?"
"Hm?"
Everyone followed Su Yihan's gaze and saw Nan Feng sprinting toward them at full speed!
The moment Nan Feng saw Su Yihan, his eyes lit up. He cupped his hands around his mouth and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Good healer, heal me quick!"
Behind Nan Feng were over a hundred Spiderlings!
