Chapter 205 - 205 The Shocked Bing Qingqing
Under normal circumstances, they would choose to run when they encountered a Beast that was one level higher than the team.
After all, nothing was more important than one’s own life. As long as one survives, there was always hope!
However, the situation was different now. No one wanted to leave in such a humiliating manner in the labyrinth ruins.
The scouting Beastmaster quickly brought back the information about the Beast.
Name: Venomous Spider
Level: Mid-5 Gold
Potential: Mid-Platinum
Talent: Venom (Outstanding)
Element: Poison
Nature: Cruel
Skills: Venom Corrosion (B-level), Tear (C-level), Horizontal Sweep (C-level), Rapid Stab (B-level)
It was a wild Gold-level Beast based on the information provided. Its overall attributes were not outstanding.
Furthermore, the Gold-level Beast was a lone wolf, with no one else of its kind nearby.
Even so, no one had any confidence in defeating the Venomous Spider. After all, the chances of victory in a battle of a higher level were very slim.
“It’s over…”
At that moment, the Beastmaster in charge of scouting was stunned. His Beast originally wanted to investigate more information, but he didn’t expect the Venomous Spider would detect it.
Under the Venomous Spider’s continuous attacks, the Beast for scouting had already become the Venomous Spider’s food, and it was slowly eating it.
“What should we do?”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Su Bai.
The current situation was dangerous. There would still be an endless stream of Beasts emerging from the originally cleaned-up area, eyeing them covetously.
Therefore, the group could not wait any longer.
“Let’s attack directly. There’s no better way now. We either retreat or we fight.” Su Bai said.
Everyone fell silent.
There was indeed no better way now unless the group waited for the other Beastmasters to arrive. However, that was equivalent to losing the initiative.
If the group placed their hopes on the reinforcements, there was no telling how long the reinforcements would arrive.
“Forget it, I’m not going.” a Beastmaster stood up suddenly and said. “I don’t want to waste my life in vain to explore these ruins.”
“Yeah, it’s impossible for us to defeat a Mid-Gold level Beast.”
“Then what should we do? We’ve already come this far. Are you guys planning to go back just like this?” asked the Beastmaster beside them.
“It’s good to go back. After all, I didn’t plan to get any benefits here after I got separated from the team.”
Faced with a strong enemy that was impossible to challenge, everyone finally gave up. They also forget about Su Bai’s suggestion.
It was simply impossible to face a Gold-level Beast.
Following that, the two Beastmasters turned around and left, choosing to leave without any hesitation.
Seeing that someone had decided to leave, those who were originally wavering immediately followed suit.
Those Beastmasters had pushed all the way here, and they decided to leave now before the Beasts suddenly appeared again.
“What should we do?” Bing Qingqing asked as she hugged the Four-eared Glazecat, confused.
The team had gathered together for no reason, and now they were divided because of difficulties.
“As usual, we go on our way,” said Su Bai.
Su Bai and Bing Qingqing were out of the scene. The remaining three Beastmasters saw that the number of people had decreased and had no intention of moving forward.
“Su Bai, thank you for taking care of us along the way. We don’t plan to continue.”
“Thanks a lot, Su Bai. When you’re out, come find me in Scarlet Blood. I’ll treat you to a feast!”
With that, the three of them left in large strides.
Bing Qingqing was reluctant to part with the others and become the two-man team again.
After all, with the support of a few Beastmasters, Bing Qingqing didn’t have any worries in battle.
“Fighting a Gold-level Beast. Huff…” Bing Qingqing took a deep breath. “Su Bai, I’m ready!”
“Ready for what?”
“To battle!”
Bing Qingqing had known Su Bai for a long time. She knew he would never retreat because of that.
That was indeed the case. It was just a roadblock; Su Bai wouldn’t have thought of leaving.
Therefore, Su Bai immediately recalled the Bearen to the Second Heaven and asked it to take care of the Golden Dragon. Then, he summoned Dream Wing.
“So beautiful!” said Bing Qingqing.
Seeing Dream Wing, Bing Qingqing was surprised. “Su Bai, I didn’t know you had such a good-looking Beast?”
This was the first time Bing Qingqing had seen Dream Wing. She was immediately attracted by its beautiful figure of it.
“I knew you had more than two Beasts. You’re excellent at hiding stuff!” said Bing Qingqing.
...
“It’s nothing.” Su Bai smiled and grabbed Bing Qingqing’s arm.
“What are you doing?” Bing Qingqing asked.
“Just follow me.” Su Bai said.
In a flash, Dream Wing had already unleashed its invisibility skill, covering the two of them and disappearing into the white tunnel.
Bing Qingqing followed Su Bai in confusion. Soon, they were close to the Venomous Spider’s territory.
“Wait, I’m not ready yet!” Bing Qingqing said. She prepared to summon Firebird to battle.
“Don’t worry,” said Su Bai.
After Su Bai finished speaking, he had already sensed the Venomous Spider on the wall fifty meters ahead.
A green spiderweb had already wrapped around the remains of a Beast.
The Venomous Spider had eaten its fill and planned to use the leftovers as food.
“We’ll slowly go over later. When it’s not paying attention, we’ll give it a fatal blow,” said Su Bai.
...
“Huh?”
It was a whimsical plan, and Bing Qingqing couldn’t understand it at all.
‘The other party was at least a Mid-Gold level Beast. How could he foolishly wait for them to approach?’ Bing Qingqing pondered.
Bing Qingqing couldn’t resist Su Bai and approached the Venomous Spider with trembling hands.
Unexpectedly, the Venomous Spider did not notice anything unusual, even though the distance between them was less than ten meters.
“How is this possible…”
This was totally out of Bing Qingqing’s common sense, but she soon realized that Su Bai’s Dream Wing was an illusion-type Beast!
Even though Bing Qingqing was slow to learn, she had been trained in the military. She finally understood why Su Bai dared to get close to the Venomous Spider.
“Dream Wing, use Nightmare Cage!”
As soon as Su Bai ordered, Dream Wing immediately used a skill, catching the Venomous Spider off guard.
An illusion attacked the Venomous Spider. Its movements became odd and it kept running around. It seemed to be avoiding the enemy’s attack.
Bing Qingqing’s hair stood on end. She couldn’t imagine what kind of illusion the Venomous Spider was trapped in.
Not long after, The Venomous Spider slowed down and stopped in front of Su Bai and Bing Qingqing.
In the illusion, the Venomous Spider was being chased by a predator, and it hid in a hole.
Of course, this was just what the Venomous Spider thought.
“Almost there. Whitey, kill it.”
As Su Bai ordered, Whitey crawled out of his pocket unsteadily.
Whitey’s sharp legs struck the Venomous Spider’s abdomen, and a puddle of brown liquid burst out, making one feel nauseous.
Following that, the Venomous Spider fell to the ground, completely dead.
“T-That’s insane.” Bing Qingqing witnessed the whole process and was deeply shocked.
