Zhang Xuezhou and others witnessed Qin Meng fall as five fiery meteors.

Just like ordinary meteors fall without any discernible pattern, the direction of a fireball's fall is also difficult to control.

However, these fire meteor beings chose to control areas on the periphery, rather than heading to the city centers of the Qinmeng Empire.

The Spider God Cave is located hundreds of miles north of Qinmeng, near the edge of the Ice Sea. It forms a pincer movement with the Aomeijia Alliance. Many spiders have crossed the narrow sea to take root and flourish in the Aomeijia Alliance, causing a spider infestation.

Spider swarms are not limited to the northern region of the Aomeijia Alliance; the situation is no different in northern Qinmeng.

The spider webs covering the vegetation look like a blanket of white snow when viewed from above.

Spiders crawl slowly on land, but on their webs they move like skateboards. Even large predators cannot escape the attacks of these spider swarms, leaving behind White Bone.

"Previously, with the snow and ice covering the ground, these spider webs didn't bother us, and since the spiders hibernated, they didn't significantly affect our passage. Now, however, they've caused us a lot of trouble!"

"Come on, let's spray some of this perfume on ourselves?"

Does this perfume repel spiders?

"It can keep out small spiders!"

"This perfume is pungent and terribly smelly; the scent is just too overpowering!"

The Airbus continued to descend, and it was time for everyone to land.

The group acted with remarkable coordination, but Badun remained somewhat uneasy.

He kept spraying himself with a chemical perfume that could repel the spiders; the pungent odor calmed him down considerably.

"Start deployment!"

The first to jump were not people, but boxes of marked supplies that were pushed out of the rear cabin.

These supply boxes contain compressed food, drinking water, insect repellent, flamethrowers, explosives, spare weapons, wireless equipment, and easily assembled two-wheeled vehicles, mountain bikes, and tricycles, which can be used directly or with simple assembly.

Thanks to the emergence of the 'Nine Alliance' platform, product competition has also arisen when products from different provinces and regions are interconnected. Manufacturers are constantly updating their products, and previously bulky products are becoming simpler and more affordable, while some products are moving towards higher quality.

The items in everyone's supply boxes had simple names, but they were all top-of-the-line products from the Alliance States. Even the explosives were highly concentrated products from the Song Household, and the power of the explosion was so great that even Song Xianzhong would have to run away.

"I've changed my clothes!"

Song Bu'er, the most silent member of the group, began to distribute 'invisibility cloaks' to everyone.

This invisibility cloak is made of polymer materials and can adhere to surfaces such as skin, hair, and outer clothing, as if coated with a waterproof film. It has the ability to change color like a chameleon, and only needs to be turned on and left to stand still for two or three seconds to blend into the environment.

"The controller switch can change color and prevent body heat loss. Each use should not exceed thirty seconds, and it can be used fifty to one hundred times. Damage to the area does not affect its use; it can be used to conceal the body with intact parts, creating a hiding effect, but this will affect the effectiveness of preventing body heat loss, making the user vulnerable to heat-based detection methods!"

Song Bu'er gave a brief introduction to the product.

Badun was still somewhat bewildered when he received the invisibility cloak. He noticed that the spot where Song Xianzhong had been in the first test experiment was empty. It wasn't until more than ten seconds later that Song Xianzhong reappeared in the same location.

"Can!"

Song Xianzhong gave a brief response.

For this father and son who had once clashed with guns, the Lineage massacre was an inescapable issue. Song Bu'er fell into silence, while Song Xianzhong's personality underwent a drastic change, becoming erratic and insane.

Although both of them lived near Western Capital City, they had never met.

This operation marked the longest period the two had spent together, and it was only at this point that Song Xianzhong began to offer his evaluation of Song Bu'er.

Song Bu'er did not respond, and his posture while distributing the invisibility cloaks remained unchanged, but when queuing to jump, Song Bu'er was first in line.

This situation made Zhang Xuezhou shake his head, while Ren Yisheng, Li Yingbo, and others exchanged glances.

It's impossible for the two members of the Song Household to develop a loving relationship; maintaining mutual respect and care is perhaps the best way for them to get along.

This relationship doesn't need anyone to mediate, and the two of them won't cause any rift.

"When the lead skydiver is on time, subsequent skydivers should jump every three counts!"

"Open the parachute at approximately 500 meters above the ground!"

"Be wary of attacks from ferocious beasts during your descent. If you spot a beast below, we will quickly deactivate our parachutes and crash to the ground for immediate engagement!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

The simple and quick instructions accompanied everyone as they parachuted down one by one.

Those Sequence Holder the first to land, and Zhang Xuezhou's parachute jump was also quite early.

A fierce, icy wind swept in, and the moisture in the air quickly clung to the fur, coating it with a layer of white frost.

Carrying weapons and other items, the group descended almost in a straight line, forming a remarkably regular curve in the air.

The earth rushed towards them, and the Spider God's Cave that Badun had mentioned came into view.

Although it is called a cave, it is actually a mountain, and due to natural causes such as glaciers and weathering, a huge depression has been formed, making it look like a giant cave.

Thick, resilient spiderwebs covered the area like a thick cloth, and melted snow water turned into huge water droplets that rolled on the webs with the wind and waves.

Compared to the snow and ice of winter, the current environment is indeed much harsher, making it difficult for people to take advantage of the natural environment.

Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but glance at Zhou Rihui, who had fallen not far away.

In just two days, the fluorescent spots on Zhou Rihui's arm had spread to his entire arm.

Although Zhou Rihui did not show any abnormalities at the time, such spreading symptoms were not a good thing.

Since the symptoms were not yet clearly identified, Zhang Xuezhou and the others could not cut off Zhou Rihui's arm, nor could they determine whether this fluorescent light, which resembled Incantation Technique, could be removed using simple and crude methods.

However, eliminating the source of the Incantation Technique is undoubtedly the best solution, and Zhang Xuezhou and the others need to come regardless of whether they arrive early or late.

They chose the fastest route and quickly plummeted into the cave.

"Prepare for battle!"

As they got closer to the ground, Zhang Xuezhou observed more as he gazed downwards.

He called out repeatedly into the walkie-talkie, which was used for short-range communication, and Zhang Hao, who also had the ability to observe over long distances, added his own comments.

"They have the ability to track and determine our whereabouts, and they are on high alert," Zhang Hao shouted into the walkie-talkie.

"Besides the four ferocious beasts, there are at least hundreds, if not thousands, of large spiders of various colors—red, green, yellow, white, and black—below. I can't even count the smaller spiders!"

Zhang Huang also added to this.

The group originally planned to launch a surprise attack and ambush against the ferocious beast, using air transport for a long-distance assault, but they never expected to fall into the beast's trap.

"Open your parachute and land!"

"Prepare to throw explosive charges to clear the area!"

"These ferocious beasts are too risky to hunt normally; we must abandon our original plan!"

Even Zhang Xuezhou had to abandon his hunting plans.

This was completely different from what they had encountered in Brampeda. These beasts seemed organized, but more like they were being controlled by something, resulting in many perplexing behaviors.

Ren Anran's parachute opened, and two afterimages appeared beside her before rapidly descending downwards.

When preparing to confuse the ferocious beast and create an opportunity to strike, Ren Anran's Yang Soul was clearly the best way to observe.

As they drifted down with their parachutes, Ren Anran provided more detailed observations and quickly found the best landing spot for everyone.
