Little Drill Wind and his team were no longer as relaxed as before.
As soon as the lord appeared, it spat out a thick cloud of venom, like a dark green fountain, shooting towards Little Drill Wind. Little Drill Wind dodged to the side, the venom grazing its scales and landing on the ground, corroding the gray-white stone slab with countless pits.
Before it could retaliate, the lord had already unleashed a massive spiderweb, a silvery-white web that blanketed the area for tens of meters.
Little Drill Wind paused, then slashed horizontally with his short sword, the blade flashing as it sliced the spiderweb in front of him in two.
But venom immediately gushed from the broken end of the spiderweb, spreading along the blade.
With a flick of his wrist, Little Drill Wind channeled demonic energy into the short sword, dispersing the venom.
Meanwhile, the White Bone Spirit had already circled around to the lord's flank.
She raised her hand and flicked it, the bone whip shooting out like a snake, coiling around one of the lord's hind limbs. A curtain of fire poured into the whip, scorching the lord's carapace. The lord let out a sharp screech, its abdomen contracting violently, and a swarm of insect eggs spewed out of the egg sac, scattering in all directions like a dark green rain.
The insect eggs shattered upon landing, exploding into clouds of poisonous mist. From within the mist, hundreds of tiny spiders hatched, each glowing with an eerie green venomous light, and surged toward the White Bone Spirit.
"Poison Explosion." Su Mu could see it clearly from high above. The little spiders would self-destruct upon approaching their target, releasing concentrated toxins. A single spider wouldn't cause much damage, but when hundreds self-destructed simultaneously, the combined toxins were enough to kill any creature within moments.
But the White Bone Spirit's response was extremely skillful.
With a swift movement, she switched from human form back to skeletal form. Her grayish-white skeleton almost blended into the background in the poisonous fog. She moved lightly, her figure like a gray shadow weaving among the insect eggs, each step precisely landing in the blind spots of the Poison Explosions.
The little spiders couldn't keep up with her speed and could only self-destruct one after another behind her, creating billowing poisonous mist, but they could never touch her skeleton.
Benbo'erba and Babo'erben charged out from the direction of the water.
Two catfish spirits, one on the left and one on the right, rapidly approached the lord, skimming the ground. The lord unleashed a spider web, Benbo'erba ducked low, its slippery skin allowing the web to slide off its body. Babo'erben, meanwhile, dove directly into the underground current, bursting forth from beneath the lord's feet, its curved blade striking its plastron. The carapace shattered, and a dark green liquid gushed out.
The lord, in pain, exerted force with all eight limbs, sending Babo'erben flying. But Benbo'erba had already seized the opportunity to rush in front of it, its short fork piercing the joint of one of its limbs, pouring in demonic energy and blasting that limb off from the inside.
The lord, having lost a leg, staggered. Little Drill Wind charged in from the front, its short sword slicing into its skull. The skull cracked open with a single blow, but the lord did not fall. Its health was too high, and its Carapace Hardening skill reduced a significant amount of damage.
Little Drill Wind didn't linger in the fight; he drew his sword and retreated.
That last strike was merely to create an opening.
The White Bone Spirit's bone whip had already entangled the lord's other limb, and the curtain of fire poured in again. Benbo'erba and Babo'erben leaped out of the water at the same time, their short forks and curved swords slashing down, severing the lord's second leg as well.
The four monsters fought independently, without coordination or need for it.
The Little Drill Wind was responsible for frontal restraint, slashing and hacking away, each strike landing precisely on the gaps in the carapace, forcing the lord to constantly adjust his defensive direction.
The White Bone Spirit was responsible for flanking attacks, her bone whips whirling and a curtain of fire spreading, gradually compressing the lord's space. The Benbo'erba and Babo'erben, on the other hand, were like two sharp knives, specifically targeting the lord's weak points... arthropod joints, the junctions of the abdominal armor, and the outer membrane of the egg sac.
Their fighting styles are completely different, yet they have all reached the pinnacle in their respective fields.
The lord was attacked in turn by four monsters, and his health dropped rapidly.
It tried to control one of them with its web, but each one had its own way of dealing with it.
The Little Drill Wind was too fast; the spider web couldn't keep up. The skeleton of the White Bone Spirit Demon was not bound by the spider web; its frame could pass directly through the mesh. The skin of the Benbo'erba was slippery, and the spider silk couldn't stick to it.
Babo'erben can burrow underground, and spider webs are ineffective against it.
The lord spat out another wave of venom, but the four monsters were already familiar with the skill's pre-cast animation.
The Little Drill Wind dodges to the side the instant its abdomen contracts, and the White Bone Spirit disappears directly into the pile of bones underground, while Benbo'erba and Babo'erben dive into the water.
The venom missed its target.
The lord let out a desperate scream, its abdomen contracting again as the last batch of eggs gushed out of its sac. This time, the number was several times greater than before, with thousands of eggs covering the entire valley. The eggs exploded, poisonous mist billowing out, and countless tiny spiders crawled out, swarming in all directions.
But the four monsters no longer gave it a chance.
Little Drill Wind burst out of the poisonous fog, his short sword raised high, and cleaved down into the center of the lord's skull.
The blade pierced through its entire skull, and dark green liquid gushed out from the crack.
The White Bone Spirit's bone whip wrapped around the lord's abdomen from the side, and a curtain of fire poured in, burning the egg sac to ashes.
Benbo'erba and Babo'erben up simultaneously, their short forks and curved blades striking the lord's cervical vertebrae, severing his head.
The lord's massive body collapsed with a crash, its eight limbs twitched a few times, and then remained completely still.
