"It's simple. We'll attack the place where it's injured or the other leg … This rune spider is actually just like humans and beasts. If it's injured somewhere, its strength will decrease," Linlong said.
Although he did not see any rune puppets or anything like that in the rune faculty, he was very experienced and naturally knew about these things.
"That's true." Seeing that Linlong's words made sense, Zhang Cheng and Zhu Xian both nodded.
Sure enough, what happened next confirmed Linlong's words. The giant spider's speed and attack power had obviously decreased.
However, because the location of the giant spider's broken leg wasn't obvious, they couldn't attack it directly.
"It seems that we can only attack the other leg without runes," Zhu Xian said.
"If one of its legs is injured, its strength will be greatly reduced. If the other leg is injured, the damage will be even greater. At that time, we might really be able to kill this giant spider," Zhang Cheng said in the same way.
Because of this, the three of them naturally tried to attack the other leg. However, even if they attacked at the same time, the giant spider still wouldn't give them any chance.
"It seems that we can only do what we did just now. Two of us will divert its attention and the other one will suddenly launch a sneak attack," Zhu Xian said with a frown.
"Yes, that's indeed the only way." Zhang Cheng nodded.
After saying that, the two of them looked at Linlong at the same time. Their meaning was obvious. Linlong, you continue.
Linlong shook his head. "This won't do. I've already suffered quite a bit of injury. This attack might not succeed. Moreover, I can only use the runic wooden sword."
Zhu Xian also felt that this was very likely. If that happened and Linlong fell, it would be very difficult for the two of them to deal with the giant spider. Hence, he directly looked at Zhang Cheng and said, "Brother Lin, you seem to be really injured and your strength is also quite weak. How about this, Zhang Cheng, you do the sneak attack."
"This …" Zhang Cheng's expression changed slightly.
This was a dangerous matter. Based on the situation just now, no matter what, they would be injured by the giant spider's leg.
After a slight pause, Zhang Cheng said, "Brother Xian, I'm weaker than you. I'm not as confident as you are. It's safer for you to do it."
Although he had always been fawning on Zhu Xian, he naturally had to make excuses under such circumstances. It was just like the saying, 'Every man for himself'.
Hearing this, Zhu Xian's brows immediately furrowed. He didn't think that Zhang Cheng would dare to make such an excuse.
However, after thinking about it, he did not vent his dissatisfaction. Instead, he said, "How about this, Zhang Cheng. I'll give you the mid-grade wood-grain clothing I'm wearing and let you deal with this giant spider. Moreover, I won't take back this wood-grain clothing … How about it?"
Hearing this, Zhang Cheng's eyes lit up. He had wanted this mid-grade Wood Grain Clothes for a long time, but he didn't have enough Mysterious Crystal Stones in his pocket. However, thinking of the danger in front of him, he still hesitated.
"What's the matter? Zhang Cheng, you're still not satisfied?" Zhu Xian couldn't help but say coldly.
The bullet from the giant spider was probably not that strong. Didn't Lin Li manage to block it just now? If he were to wear the middle-grade wood grain clothing, he would definitely be fine. By then, he would have gotten a wood grain clothing for nothing, Zhang Cheng thought to himself.
Under Zhu Xian's coercion and temptation, he finally chose to agree.
"Alright, Elder Brother Xian, leave it to me," he said.
"Okay, then I'll give you the wood grain clothing now," Zhu Xian immediately said with a smile.
After saying that, he took off the wood grain clothing he was wearing and threw it to Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng immediately put it on.
After he put it on, Linlong and Zhu Xian attracted the giant spider from the left side. Then, Zhang Cheng slashed at the giant spider's leg with his sword at the same time.
The process was almost exactly the same as Linlong's. Zhang Cheng easily cut off the giant spider's right leg with one slash. At the same time, Zhang Cheng was also sent flying by the other leg.
Even though he was wearing a mid-grade Wood Grain Clothing, Zhang Cheng immediately spat out a mouthful of blood after being flicked by the giant spider. His face instantly became deathly pale.
Compared to Linlong, he had obviously suffered a lot of injuries.
Didn't I wear the rune clothing? Why am I more injured than Lin Li? Zhang Cheng, who was struggling to get up, had an ugly expression on his face.
He realized that he was wobbling when he stood up.
Zhu Xian was also shocked. When Linlong was sent flying, he didn't see any rune clothing on him.
Could it be that the giant spider's left leg was more powerful? He could only think in this direction. How could he know that Linlong had a Body Refining Technique that they didn't?
Their hearts were filled with countless questions, but they quickly revealed smiles on their faces. After the other leg was injured, the speed of the giant spider had decreased by half. Not only that, but the power of those long legs had also decreased by a lot.
This way, their threat was greatly reduced. The only regret was that Zhang Cheng's strength was greatly reduced after this injury.
Next, the three of them thought of various ways to attack the two parts of the giant spider that were injured. Finally, after 15 minutes, cracks appeared on the giant spider's body. These cracks grew larger and larger. In the end, the entire spider collapsed on the ground as if it had fallen apart. It had completely lost its ability to fight.
This situation made the three of them heave a sigh of relief.
It was also at this time that they discovered two palm-sized black stones falling from the giant spider's body.
"Black Ink Stones!"
Upon seeing these two stones, Zhu Xian and Zhang Cheng immediately cried out in surprise.
Linlong could also tell that they were Black Ink Stones at a glance.
At the same time, the three of them rushed towards the Black Ink Stones. As Linlong was the closest, he directly grabbed the two Black Ink Stones in his hands.
Seeing that he had snatched the Black Ink Stones, Zhu Xian and Zhang Cheng immediately stopped.
"Lin Li, this isn't what you should have. Give them to me and Brother Xian, we just happen to have one each!" Zhang Cheng said directly.
"Sorry, it belongs to whoever snatches it first," Linlong said. He had no intention of throwing the two stones to the two of them.
"Brat, do you want to die?" Zhang Cheng couldn't help but say angrily.
"Lin Li, look at your situation. You can only use the rune wooden sword. You are no match for us at all," Zhu Xian said calmly.
In a place like this, he wasn't worried that Linlong could run away.
If it wasn't for Linlong's previous performance, which might be the key to them leaving this place, Zhu Xian would have already rushed up and attacked Linlong.
"Brother Xian, this brat is so disobedient. Why don't we teach him a lesson and snatch the Black Ink Stones? When the time comes, we'll see if he can be of any use," Zhang Cheng said.
Zhu Xian thought about it and agreed. He immediately said, "Lin Li, hurry up and throw the Black Ink Stones over. Otherwise, we will really make a move!"
"Is that so? Then you guys catch it." Linlong smiled indifferently and raised his hand.
Zhu Xian and Zhang Cheng thought that he was going to throw the Black Ink Stones over and hurriedly reached out to catch them. However, their expressions turned ugly. How was Linlong throwing the Black Ink Stones over? He was clearly toying with them.
"Brat, you are really daring. You actually dare to tease me in a place like this. See if I don't beat your head until it splits!" Zhu Xian couldn't help but roar in anger.
After saying that, he activated the rune stone sword in his hand. On the other side, Zhang Cheng also activated the rune stone sword in his hand.
He wasn't being proactive. Rather, he was afraid that if he didn't go over, Zhu Xian would directly keep the two Black Ink Stones. If that happened, who could he ask for them from?
Seeing his reaction, Zhu Xian didn't move. Instead, he looked at him and said, "Zhang Cheng, go and teach him a lesson!"
Zhu Xian wasn't worried that Zhang Cheng wouldn't give him the Black Ink Stones after obtaining them. Hence, seeing that Zhang Cheng was so proactive, he naturally started to order him around.
Zhang Cheng's expression changed slightly when he saw Zhu Xian's thoughts. However, what else could he do at this time?
Anyway, I have to get them first. When the time comes, he can't possibly not give me a single one, right? Zhang Cheng immediately replied. "Alright!"
After saying that, he walked towards Linlong. As he walked, he said, "Lin Li, I will give you another chance. If you throw them out, I won't teach you a lesson. If you don't, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Although he was injured, he wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to deal with Linlong since he could use the rune stone sword.
"I'm sorry, but I have no intention of giving away what I have already obtained," Linlong said indifferently.
"Good lad, since you are asking for a beating, don't blame me for being impolite!" With a cold expression, Zhang Cheng immediately stabbed towards Linlong.
He didn't intend to kill Linlong directly. Hence, the rune sword was aimed at Linlong's arm.
What he didn't expect was that Linlong didn't seem to have any intention of resisting. This was because Linlong still didn't move.
Is this lad stupid? Just as Zhu Xian and Zhang Cheng were puzzled, a black shadow suddenly attacked Zhang Cheng at lightning speed.
Not good! Zhang Cheng, who was greatly alarmed, hurriedly dodged backwards, but it was already too late. The black shadow had already ruthlessly pierced through his forehead, directly piercing through his brain, causing him to die on the spot.
"How is this possible?" Looking at the thing that had pierced Zhang Cheng's head, Zhu Xian's face was full of disbelief. That thing was a broken leg of a giant spider.
"Linlong, what the hell are you doing? How did you activate this broken leg?" Zhu Xian asked in surprise.
In that short period of time, he clearly saw that after Linlong's hand pressed on the broken leg of the giant spider, it immediately shot out and killed Zhang Cheng.
"I might as well tell you. Although this giant spider has been destroyed, there is still a certain amount of energy in its legs. That's why this happened just now," Linlong said with a faint smile.
It was also because of this that he dared to challenge the two of them. Otherwise, he wouldn't have overestimated himself.
"But, how did you know how to activate them?" Zhu Xian asked in surprise.
"Didn't you see it clearly just now? I activated the broken leg just like that," Linlong said.
Zhu Xian's face twitched when he heard this. He didn't believe that the broken leg would fly out if he pressed it like Linlong did.
"Why? Senior Brother Zhu Xian still wants to deal with me?" Linlong laughed.
Zhu Xian didn't say anything. Instead, he frowned and circled Linlong.
He was extremely cautious, afraid that one of the broken legs would suddenly fly out. Fortunately, nothing happened after that.
After a while, he picked up a broken leg with the rune stone sword in his hand.
After the broken leg flew out, he didn't dare to catch it at all. Instead, he took a few steps back and observed the broken leg from a distance.
After observing for a while, he finally dared to reach out and grab the broken leg. He wanted to activate the broken leg like Linlong did, but no matter what he did, the broken leg didn't respond.
He couldn't help but look at Linlong. "Linlong, what should I do?"
"I'll say it again. You saw it just now," Linlong said with a smile.
"You lied to me!" Zhu Xian couldn't help but show a hint of anger on his face. He clearly did what Linlong did just now, but the broken leg didn't respond at all.
Linlong laughed again. "There's a secret behind it, but why would I tell you? If I tell you, I won't have anything to deal with you at all. When that time comes, won't I be threatened by you?"
"That's true." Zhu Xian's face twitched.
"I think, Senior Brother Zhu Xian, we should think of a way to leave this place first," Linlong said.
As he spoke, he grabbed the broken leg of a giant spider in his hand.
"Linlong, no matter what, you have to give me a piece of Black Ink Stone!" Zhu Xian couldn't help but say.
Linlong ignored him, and instead started walking in the stone room.
Zhu Xian's expression naturally turned ugly after being ignored by Linlong like that. However, he didn't dare to attack Linlong. The reason was simple. He was afraid that the broken leg in Linlong's hand would suddenly fly out like what he did to Zhang Cheng.
If that really happened, he didn't have the confidence to deal with it.
Helpless, he could only take Zhang Cheng's wood-grain clothes back and put it on. He stayed where he was and looked at Linlong. At the same time, he also shifted his gaze to the stone wall at the side.
There were some runes and strange words on the stone wall. To him, these were the key to leaving this place.
As for above him, there seemed to be no sound. He didn't know where the giant spiders had gone. As for the people up there, he guessed that none of them would have survived.
This was because not everyone could be like him, Linlong, and Zhang Cheng.
After looking at it for a while, Zhu Xian frowned because he couldn't find the pattern of these runes and words. He also couldn't find a way to leave this place.
"Brother Lin, did you see anything?" Zhu Xian asked Linlong.
Linlong still didn't say anything. However, he suddenly took out a piece of Black Ink Stone and placed it against the stone wall in front of him.
The reason why Linlong did this was because he felt that the stone wall had some kind of attraction to the Black Ink Stone.
What was this kid doing? Zhu Xian was puzzled.
