Chapter 702: 538

The spider monster let out a sharp howl as its mechanical arm swung back with force. Su Yu braced with his right arm.

With a sharp "clang," Su Yu’s face changed drastically as he unexpectedly flew sideways.

The semi-human mechanical spider monster had swung its mechanical arm with such force it could knock Su Yu flying, a feat likely out of the reach of even Yang Yue.

Su Yu activated the "Sacred Eye" on the back of his left hand, focusing on the semi-human mechanical spider monster in front of him, and a piece of information appeared in his mind.

Name: Biochemical Spider, a type of mechanical bio-beast invented by the Atlantean civilization. These are left scattered around the world, laying their eggs within the giant eggs produced by other creatures. By consuming the nutrients within the giant eggs and merging with their ecological traits, offspring are born. Each Biochemical Spider has a different form, based on the creature it consumed. Some take a half-human, half mechanical form after consuming human embryos, others appear as half-tiger, half mechanical spiders after consuming tiger or leopard organisms. Mature Biochemical Spiders are powerful, possessing strengths far surpassing that of a Level 9 Beast Soldier. Their abilities include high speed, strong power, and the ability to spray biochemical spider silk from their abdomen, which is even stronger than titanium alloy. They are very formidable.

The Biochemical Spider in front of him possessed a half-human, half-spider form, as described by the "Sacred Eye". Apparently, the mother of this monster had injected its eggs into a human fetus within a pregnant woman’s womb. The Biochemical Spider would consume the energy of the fetus, ultimately combining to form this half-human, half-spider form, growing by consuming the body of its human mother.

Considering this horrifyingly bloody birth method, Su Yu felt a chilling sensation run down his spine. Noticing the monster’s excitement upon seeing the three giant eggs, it was obvious that it didn’t want to eat these eggs, but intended to inject its own eggs into them.

"Mechanical beasts ... possess the power of a Beast General ... Beast General?" Su Yu mused. In the former "Black Iron World," there were only single-level beast soldier monsters. The most powerful monsters in the Black Iron World were the Level 9 Beast Soldiers that resided in the highest, sixth level of the Ten Great Elemental Spaces. As per his assumption, these Level 9 Beast Soldiers would not be weaker than a general Ninth-Level Black Iron Warrior.

However, the Biochemical Spider in front of him possessed a power that surpassed a Level 9 Beast Soldier, clearly, after the Level 9 Beast Soldier, the classification of monsters was no longer described using Beast Soldiers but had evolved to Beast General levels of power.

The Biochemical Spider seemed extremely enraged after being trampled by Su Yu. After it had sent Su Yu flying with one blow, it stood up on its eight slender legs. Su Yu could clearly see from afar that where the monster’s naked female body connected to its spider body, there was a boat-shaped split in its flesh. As the split opened, a constant hissing sound rang out and a large amount of white fluid spurted out.

As soon as this white fluid came into contact with the air after being ejected from the split in its body, it turned into white threads, unmistakably the biochemical spider silk as mentioned in its "Sacred Eye" description.

This white biochemical silk sprayed out in large quantities from the split. In the blink of an eye, using the place where it stood as the center, it extended towards Su Yu, Yang Yue, Yano, and the three giant eggs. In an instant, everyone was enveloped within its reach of several dozens of meters.

The most terrifying aspect was not the biochemical silk, but the large number of tiny flesh-colored specks attached to it.

These specks were very small, almost indistinguishable to the naked eye. If not scrutinized closely, they could easily be overlooked. These tiny flesh-colored specks were the eggs of the Biochemical Spider, containing its genetic information and biochemical core. They could autonomously burrow into the giant eggs or the bodies of any creature they came into contact with, using them as host bodies, consuming their nutrients and growing non-stop. Eventually, they would break free, transforming into new Biochemical Spiders.

These Biochemical Spiders were like viruses. It was for this reason that the Atlanteans, after inventing these bio-beasts, chose to abandon the technology. The Biochemical Spiders they cultivated were all destroyed. Despite this, these resilient and abnormal organisms somehow managed to survive. Until now, they have developed to form an entire "Mechanical Bio-Family" that is spread all over the world. The species are countless, and the Biochemical Spiders make up only a small part of them.

The spotted giant snake that previously occupied the towering tree, tens of meters long and almost spirit-like in its snake form, was absolutely terrifying. However, when it became aware of the presence of the Biochemical Spider, it immediately chose to flee. This alone showed how notorious and frightening these Biochemical Spiders were.

The Biochemical Spider had been provoked, and its eight long legs stabbed into the ground as it lifted its body, spraying a mass quantity of biochemical silk in all directions. Thousands upon thousands of biochemical eggs were attached to this silk, and the moment they made contact with a living being, they would burrow into the creature, parasitising it often without the host’s awareness.

Su Yu, having just managed to get up, watched a massive quantity of spider silk move towards himself and the three giant eggs on the other side. His expression shifted slightly. Yang Yue and the others, who had all evolved into Zero-Level Bronze Warriors and thus increased their strength several-fold, were still dizzy from the spider’s initial attack, but they managed to react to the large amount of incoming spider silk and prepared to respond.

Yano released a torrent of black smoke around his body, and with a wave of his hand, countless Black Smoke Swords shot out, slashing towards the biochemical silk.

Han Xiao first cast an "Air Barrier" to protect himself and the five people around him. Then, he clasped his hands together, drawing in the compressed air from the surroundings to form an "Air Cannon" and fired it.

In this world, the air held a strange Power of the World. This allowed Han Xiao’s compressed "Air Cannon" to multiply seven to eight times in force. This attack hit the Biochemical Spider squarely.

With an earth-shaking roar, the Biochemical Spider was sent reeling. On the other side, Su Yu began stepping forward. The recently acquired "Eight-step Soar" proved its worth. Continuously stepping forward, his body glided into the air in a flash, sailing past the surrounding biochemical silk threads and landing steadily in front of the three giant eggs. His right hand swung a grand surge of willpower into the surroundings.

The sky full of biochemical silk suddenly wavered and paused. With a low roar, Su Yu pushed out the "Apocalyptic Storm".

At this point, Su Yu’s strength had increased by hundreds of times. With the same special power propelling the air, the "Apocalyptic Storm" naturally held a proportional increase in strength. The "swooshing" quickly formed a tremendous hurricane vortex. This vortex plunged into the sky full of biochemical silk, grinding the silk threads and producing a "pop pop pop" sound like a bursting bowstring. Numerous biochemical threads were pulled taut and then snapped.

Su Yu stepped forward again, one, two, three steps...and then once more launched his body obliquely into the air. He landed in a perfect arc, producing a loud explosion. The Biochemical Spider let out a shrill roar as one of its mechanical legs exploded and shattered under Su Yu. While enshrouded in a layer of "Armour" skill that covered his entire body, his left hand formed a fist which surfaced a mass of black scales along with bronze-coloured scales. Then, he delivered a heavy blow to the intersection of the monstrosity’s mechanical spider body and its semi-humanoid upper body.

The monster let out a sharp howl. Almost at the same time, the earth shook again. Following that, another section of ground collapsed, and a figure leaped out. Yet another Biochemical Spider sprung out from underground!

This Biochemical Spider’s upper body was not attached to a naked woman’s form, but a monster resembling a giant squid, with an indescribably ugly face. Two fist-sized black eyeballs popped out of its face, and under its head, eight giant tentacles writhed; the tentacles were full of bulging meatballs and barbs, appearing incredibly ferocious.

The moment this monster arrived, its eight long legs sprung up. When it landed, it was already firmly positioned above the three giant eggs. Its abdomen squirmed, spraying a large amount of biochemical silk and burying the three giant eggs.

Su Yu, who was currently dealing a punch into a humanoid Biochemical Spider, suddenly noticed the situation on the other side. His heart trembled, and he roared. Neglecting the humanoid Biochemical Spider, he kicked off the ground and stepped on the humanoid Biochemical Spider, immediately causing its two mechanical legs to explode. Using that momentum, he charged at the speed of lightning. In less than a second, he performed the "Eight-step Soar" to its limit, taking eight consecutive steps. As the eighth step landed, the power of the previous seven steps was accumulated and surged together with it. With that eighth step, an explosion ensued, as if a bubble had burst. The upper body of the Biochemical Spider, bearing a squid-like monster as its upper body, exploded from top to bottom. Various fluids and black water splashed everywhere, and before it could let out a scream, it was instantly crushed into pieces by Su Yu’s stomp.

At the same time Su Yu rescued the three giant eggs and stomped the squid Biochemical Spider to pieces, the humanoid Biochemical Spider, which had three of its long legs broken by him, was screaming like mad in place. From the crack in its belly, it crazily spewed biochemical silk in all directions, forcing Yang Yue and the others to retreat.

As they stepped back, they suddenly felt the hairs on their bodies stand up. (To be continued. To know what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com. There are more Chapters to support the author and support licensed reading!)
