BFET Chapter 19

Spider Puppet

Xie Yi nimbly used the surrounding broken walls to dodge the incessant swarm of insects. Just as he scrambled over a ruined wall, a massive hyena-like Mutated Entity suddenly charged at him from the side!

It was a purely reflexive action to roll forward on the spot. Immediately afterward, a tearing roar erupted behind him!

Xie Yi glanced back and saw the massive hyena-like Mutated Entity locked in a fierce struggle with the insect tide. However, the layers upon layers of buzzing quickly drowned out the roar.

The quickest way to deal with insect tide Mutated Entities was to divert the disaster eastward.

When the snipe and clam fight, the fisherman benefits, but this one was too weak.

Taking advantage of the brief respite afforded by the delay of the insect tide, Xie Yi swiftly ran deeper.

He remembered that there was a nest of the higher-level Mutated Entity Insect Tribute in this direction.

The dense buzzing behind him once again bore down on him. He narrowly dodged it, and with the momentum, he pulled out his gun and fired several shots at the massive swarm of insects before quickly flipping over a wrecked car beside him.

The air became increasingly humid.

Even before reaching the vicinity of the Central Zone, Xie Yi felt that the rate at which the pollution concentration was rising was somewhat abnormal.

The offspring insect tide behind him remained relentlessly pursuing, devouring many mid-level Mutated Entities along the way, but these things were never satisfied.

Whoosh!

It sounded like a sharp object slicing through the air.

Xie Yi saw a white light-like object rapidly approaching him. He immediately twisted his entire body, and the white light grazed his face, directly piercing a sub-insect closely following behind him.

A slight tingling sensation came from his face.

Before he could think, the sub-insect tide that was only inches away rushed toward him again. He immediately leapt onto the wall, using it as leverage to roll to the side.

The whooshing sound rose again, along with a dense hammering sound and a dripping sound from the front.

Xie Yi landed and looked up.

Three enormous spiders had successively appeared on the dilapidated walls in front of him.

The three spiders dragged their swollen and massive abdomens as they stopped in front. Their heads, covered in dense compound eyes, rolled around and looked in his direction.

They were constantly oozing mucus, which dripped from their bodies and spider legs onto the ground, quickly forming a puddle.

Xie Yi narrowed his eyes. Spider Puppets, high-level Mutated Entities.

The sub-insect tide flying in the air suddenly emitted an excited buzzing sound.

The entire insect tide quickly gathered together and lunged toward the three Spider Puppets!

The three Spider Puppets moved forward slightly, their heads raised, and emitted a hissing sound. In the next instant, they spewed out countless spider silks.

The spider silks intertwined in mid-air, forming layers of spiderwebs.

The swarming insect tide rushed onto them and fell in swathes.

The layered spiderwebs only blocked a small portion, and more sub-insects chewed through and broke through.

The three Spider Puppets were soon submerged in the insect tide.

Xie Yi retreated a short distance and looked at the battle ahead.

Spider Puppets were highly venomous, and these insects might not be able to handle them. This fisherman’s profit might be difficult to obtain.

In the moment of his hesitation, the sub-insect tide covering the Spider Puppets suddenly caved in like melting!

Then the second piece, the third piece——

Xie Yi immediately turned around.

But just as he ran a few steps, he heard several whooshing sounds, and several white light shadows rushed toward him!

He abruptly stopped and spun around to avoid them, and at the same time, he heard a familiar hammering sound again.

Then he saw another Spider Puppet crawling out of a half-collapsed house next to him.

There were actually four of them!

Xie Yi gripped Abyss, his gaze turning cold. After scanning the Spider Puppet blocking his path, he glanced with his peripheral vision at what was behind him.

At this time, most of the insect tide originally covering the three Spider Puppets had disappeared.

The remaining insects were still being eroded by the mucus constantly oozing from the Spider Puppets, and they were constantly being melted into their bodies as if they were being swallowed.

The three Spider Puppets, which had already noticed the movement here, all looked over with their exposed compound eyes.

Then they quickly stood up and crawled toward Xie Yi’s location. As they crawled, the corpses of insects mixed with mucus kept falling from their bodies.

It seemed that there was no way to avoid it.

Xie Yi’s gaze sank, and a layer of faint scale-likePatterns appeared at the corner of his eyes. As thePatterns spread down along the side of his face, he moved!

As soon as he moved, the four Spider Puppets that had been staring at him immediately spewed out countless spider silks.

Xie Yi dodged while quickly stepping aside, then turned around and used the wall as leverage to leap up. With a swift hand, he cut off the spiderwebs intertwined in mid-air, and with his other hand, he aimed his gun at one of the Spider Puppets and fired several shots.

The Spider Puppets moved extremely fast, and all of Xie Yi’s shots missed.

The moment he landed, countless spider silks sprayed over again. He flipped over to avoid them, raised his hand again, and fired another shot at the Spider Puppet closest to him.

The bullet swiftly pierced through the spiderwebs and, with a puff, sunk into the abdomen of the Spider Puppet!

The Spider Puppet paused, then let out a strange and piercing cry.

Xie Yi narrowed his eyes and immediately raised his gun, pulled the trigger, and the sprayed bullets instantly shot toward the Spider Puppet again.

But at this moment, countless spider silks surged over, instantly congealing into a thick spider silk wall, blocking the Spider Puppet.

As a result, all the bullets that were originally shot at the Spider Puppet sank into this wall with several puffs.

The spider silk wall melted in response, and the three Spider Puppets quickly crawled over from the side.

As the Spider Puppets crawled, mucus dripped all over the ground.

It seemed that there were things crawling in the accumulation of mucus on the ground. They were densely packed, and upon closer inspection, they turned out to be countless tiny Spider Puppets!

Those Spider Puppets fell with the mucus and quickly surged toward the injured Spider Puppet along with the Spider Puppets.

As those Spider Puppets continued to fall, the three originally massive Spider Puppets shrank instantly, until they were finally submerged in this swarm of tiny Spider Puppets and surged together into the abdomen of the injured Spider Puppet!

In the next instant, the abdomen of the Spider Puppet swelled up, followed by its head and spider legs. Its entire body was suddenly magnified several times.

The Spider Puppet made a hissing sound. As its slender legs supported its massive body to stand up, its abdomen made a gurgling sound as bubbles were squeezed and broken.

Xie Yi’s eyes widened slightly. He saw that the middle of the Spider Puppet’s abdomen was covered with dense blisters that burst in an instant. From the center of the squeezed and wrinkled skin, a Spider Puppet head covered with compound eyes suddenly drilled out!

The dense compound eyes gathered on the head and stared intently at Xie Yi. The huge mandibles at the mouth split open to both ends, revealing the squirming chelicerae inside.

Evolving?

No, he had never seen a Mutated Entity evolve like this. Moreover, the evolution of a Mutated Entity would be accompanied by a surge in pollution concentration. Although the surrounding pollution concentration was rising, it had not yet reached the intensity of evolution.

Before he could think further, the large Spider Puppet, formed by the fusion of four, had quickly charged towards him!

Xie Yi’s face was ashen as he raised his gun and shot straight at the Spider Puppet.

However, although this Spider Puppet had become huge, it did not affect its movements at all, and it was even more agile than before.

In an instant, it avoided all the bullets and charged in front of him, raising its spider leg and smashing it down.

Xie Yi quickly retreated several meters, dodged it, and raised his gun again to shoot at the Spider Puppet.

But at this moment, his movements paused, and his entire body suddenly became sluggish, and an invisible throbbing pain came from his mind!
