Chapter 48:
The Spider Queen was located at the top of the entire spider’s biological chain.
The spider queen’s most important responsibility is to reproduce the offspring, and it will combine the strongest individuals among the spiders to produce the best offspring.
Apart from this, the Spider Queen was also the best commander. With her intangible spiritual connection to the tribe, the loose spider hordes would become the most efficient killing machine under her command.
Every spider queen was the strongest amongst all the spiders. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to rule the entire spider swarm in this world where the strong preyed on the weak.
For example, the Spider Queen that appeared on the field, whether it was its metallic lustre or its venomous scorpion-like weapons, all showed the power of the spider empress from a different side.
Although it was the apex of the system, the Spider Queen was far too different from its children.
It was more like a giant snail, most of its tissue hidden in a snail’s shell.
However, the soft body that came out of the snail shell had three pairs of strong legs like those of a lurker, as well as a pair of huge pincers.
His head still retained the characteristics of the spider, but it was magnified by countless times.
The eight compound eyes on the head could rotate at 0 degrees by themselves, so for the Spider Queen, there were very few blind spots.
The most distinctive feature was the hair on the spider’s head. Under the natural combination of these varying shades of fur, it actually formed a beautiful woman’s face with her eyes slightly closed. This was also the origin of the Spider Queen’s name.
After crashing into the lounge, the Spider Queen crawled over to the group of three.
The eight pairs of eyes reflected the three hundred and three people on different sides. It was enough to make anyone’s hair stand on end.
“There’s good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?”
Ben fished the bullets out of his pocket and pressed them into the cylinder.
The bullets were long and thin like fingers, and the warheads were not engraved as they had been before.
Zero knew it was an armor-piercing bullet, usually used against composite armor tanks.
With this kind of bullet, Ben knew how powerful the Spider Queen’s defenses were.
Sue let go of the zero, the one-handed sword in her hand, the toe of her injured leg lifted gently off the ground, and she put her weight on the other long leg.
The woman with the fighting posture swiped her hands around her waist and the M500 left the holster and landed in his hands.
“Let’s hear the good news first.”
Zero said, moving slightly to the left.
“The good news is that the Spider Queen is not going to allow anyone else to interfere, given her dignity as a king.”
The drunk moved to the right and said, “The bad news is, this guy is the strongest warrior in the group of spiders. Do not underestimate him!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly exerted his strength.
Instead of moving forward, he retreated, moving as fast as a puff of smoke as he distanced himself from the Spider Queen.
As if rehearsing a hundred times, Ben moved, not idling.
But Sue stood where she was, knowing that she was the only one who could be used as bait.
All he could do was try his best to give Zero and Ben a chance to seriously injure or even kill the Spider Queen.
He raised his sword and stomped on the ground with his good leg.
Sue charged at the Spider Queen like a suicidal man, her sword chopping down at her head without a trace of dexterity.
He raised his sword and dropped it.
At this moment, the Spider Queen made a strange movement.
The abnormally soft body continued to shrink. Facing the empress, he could clearly feel the subtle changes in the air.
They sped in the direction of the empress, but were not familiar with the empress’s methods of attack.
Since he wasn’t familiar with it, he had no way of knowing.
However, Ben knew that when the drunk reached the empress’s position, he immediately shouted to Susu, “Get out of the way, it …”
Before he could finish his words, a violent cry shattered the old drunkard’s voice.
The Empress opened her mouth wide and let out a high-frequency sonic boom.
Su Su only had enough time to block the sword horizontally in front of her, and then, as if hit by an invisible train, she was knocked high into the air.
While he was still in the air, all the pores on his body were cracked by the sound, and a cloud of blood mist spurted out from his body.
By the time she hit the ground, she was already unconscious.
Surprised, he didn’t expect that the main kung fu user would defeat the empress in a single move.
Although he was wounded, this spider was way too powerful.
Only Ben knew that this sonic boom was a special attack by the Spider Queen, by absorbing and compressing air.
Facing the sonic boom, not being blasted into smithereens was already pretty good. As for being unconscious and bleeding all over, it was only a minor injury.
At the same time that Sue was blown away, Zero fired.
The two M500s in his hands continued to fire, and the violent and wild sounds of gunfire continued to ring out.
The muzzle spat fire at the spider empress’s entire body.
He was searching for the empress’s weaknesses, and to his surprise, the steel shell was still holding the bullet.
However, the soft body that extended out from the hard shell did not even have a single drop of blood on it after being continuously shot by the 50 bullets with over 3,000 joules of kinetic energy.
After absorbing the kinetic energy from the bullets, the empress’s body wriggled and warheads fell to the ground one after another, causing her scalp to go numb.
That soft body, however, had an astonishing degree of flexibility. Otherwise, how could he absorb the kinetic energy of bullets?
Even though the Spider Queen wasn’t injured, she was still unable to offset the pain from the bullets.
The empress spun in a circle, facing zero, and was about to pounce.
Without warning, the giant spider began to sway its body wildly.
The Spider Queen tilted to the left, as if it had been struck by something. At that moment, Colt’s unique muffled gunshot rang out from afar.
However, even after Colt had fired the armor piercing bullet, only a faint white mark could be seen on the Spider Queen’s shell.
Only a third of the armor-piercing projectile’s warheads went into the carapace, and more remained outside the carapace.
However, the successful impact of the armor-piercing bullet attracted the Spider Queen’s attention. Its attention shifted from the zero point to the distant object itself.
After regaining her footing, the spider empress’s head, then pincers, and finally three pairs of legs.
The objects shrank back into their soft bodies and then into their hard shells.
Thus, only a wheel shaped snail shell was left in the track and field.
The next moment, the snail shell began to spin rapidly.
The spinning carapace grazed the ground, causing sand and gravel to spurt out. At the same time, the Spider Empress rotated her carapace like a wheel, charging towards Ben at a speed so fast that it would cause one’s hair to stand on end.
He clenched his teeth and activated the second order Agility to the limit.
He followed behind the empress, gun in hand.
The bullet sounded like it was shot from a metal. Due to the centrifugal force of the rotation, the originally unbreakable hard shell managed to shake off the zero bullet.
It was impossible for the Spider Queen to stop even for a second.
A look of unprecedented seriousness appeared on Ben’s face.
As the Spider Queen whirled toward him, he erupted with speed faster than zero.
The old drunkard weirdly retreated a hundred meters, then with another twist, he sprinted behind the Spider Queen.
The muzzle of the gun sank a little, and after a precise calculation, Ben pulled the trigger.
The armor piercing bullet whistled through the air, embedding itself into the spider empress’s point of contact with the ground.
The spinning hard shell immediately lost its balance. The gigantic kinetic energy sent the Spider Queen flying into the air. Its mountain-sized body smashed onto the south-west platform, squashing countless spiders that couldn’t escape in time and turning them into meat paste.
“Good marksmanship.”
Zero praised.
“Thanks for the exaggeration. Be careful, it’s coming again.”
Ben said bluntly. At the same time, the spider empress’s whirling body reflected in his cloudy eyes.
The two of them split up, one on the left and the other on the right.
The Spider Queen smashed into the sand, sending it flying.
The shell continued to spin and follow Ben around a bend.
“Bastard who doesn’t know how to look after an old man!”
Ben swore harshly, raised his hand and tried again.
The Spider Queen suddenly shot up high, a change that forced Ben to readjust the gun and calculate the trajectory.
In midair, the spinning hard shell came to a halt, and the Spider Queen’s body shot out of the shell.
A scorpion claw descended from the sky the moment it approached Ben!
Just like that, the empress’s pincers stabbed heavily into the ground, sending sand and stones flying everywhere.
As if hit by a small missile, the gravel in the field flew a hundred meters, exploding into a gray cloud of dust.
Amidst the smoke and dust, Colt flew out, spinning, and landed on the sandy ground, which was about a hundred meters away.
Slowly, the Spider Queen crawled out of the dust cloud.
On the right side, there was an old drunkard caught between the pincers. His body was covered in blood, and it was unknown whether he was alive or dead.

As Ben landed on the ground, he blew up a cloud of grey smoke.
Zero took a deep breath, put the M500 away, and shot straight at Colt like a javelin.
At the same time, the Spider Queen retracted its shell and flew in the same direction!
