Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 1646 - 1464: Spider Nest

Boom!

A deafening explosion erupted, propelling a towering column of flames into the sky. Scarlet rings rippled across the landscape, accompanied by the colossal flame column at its center. The scurrying spiders, overwhelmed by the blazing rings, were instantly obliterated. They didnʼt simply get blasted or burned to death, but were completely shattered. Like sand, they vanished in a puff of smoke!

”...”

Witnessing this spectacle, Alex couldnʼt help but raise an intrigued eyebrow. The enemy was far from weak, and he couldnʼt help but feel a sense of satisfaction for sending them forward.

”How dare you inflict harm upon my innocent children!”

Juliaʼs fury ignited as she witnessed her beloved spider army being annihilated in an instant. Rage consumed her as she lifted her head, letting out a thunderous roar while spreading her arms wide. A vibrant green light radiated from her colossal form, filling the air with an eerie glow.

In a powerful explosion, waves of poisonous green fog erupted, engulfing everything in its path, catching Alexʼs group off guard.

”Rot in hell, all of you! Hehehehehe!”

As she observed their helplessness, Julia couldnʼt contain her wicked laughter. This was no ordinary fog, but a toxic mist formed from her very essence. Any living being enveloped by its poisonous embrace would wither away, their life force absorbed into Juliaʼs being, transforming them into her possessions.

”Pathetic beings of Light! It is your time to perish! And I shall become...”

”Huh? How is this possible?!”

However, as Julia cackled with glee, her eyes widened in disbelief at the sight of the green fog surrounding her. In a matter of moments, the poisonous mist had engulfed the entire garden, transforming it into an ethereal sea of clouds. Ordinarily, the inhabitants of Order would have succumbed instantly to such an attack, their resistance futile.

Yet, Julia was confounded, for she felt no surge of energy being absorbed into her body.

”This cannot be! The flesh and blood of those who perish in my poisonous fog should heal my wounds and restore my strength. But why...?”

What mysterious force was at play here?

”———!”

In that moment, Julia was struck with excruciating pain in her hind leg. A piercing scream escaped her as her massive body crashed to the ground. But what left her dumbfounded was the sight of her severed hind leg lying beside her.

”How is this possible? In my poisonous fog, how are they able to move freely and even harm me?”

As Julia grappled with disbelief, the green toxic fog dissipated, revealing the surroundings once more. And what she saw before her eyes left her in utter shock.

Three shimmering defensive barriers merged together, forming a colossal pyramid with Alexʼs group standing calmly within its protective embrace. The swirling green fog was completely barred from entry. No matter how forcefully it crashed against the barrier, it could not break through their defense.

”What... What is happening?”

Juliaʼs mind went blank as she tried to comprehend the situation unfolding before her.

”They have found a way to prevent my poisonous fog from infiltrating. But how? How did they know? There are always warning signs before I release the fog. Even if their reactions are swift, it is impossible for all of them to evade my attack!”

”Attack with all your might! Destroy her!”

Alex paid no attention to Juliaʼs bewildered thoughts. He had faced similar adversaries before, so he was prepared. As soon as they noticed Juliaʼs skin changing color, they swiftly retreated, while healers at the rear created an enchanted field that rendered them immune to poison. Alex had to acknowledge the power of Juliaʼs attack. Many had fallen victim to her in the past.

After all, her green poisonous fog was not only devastating, but it also replenished her health.

Alex possessed an extraordinary immunity to poison. In order to protect his comrades, he activated the enchantment of poison immunity and gathered everyone together to shield them from the impending deadly attack. However, this act came at a cost. Julia, upon witnessing Alexʼs ultimate skill, entered a state of cooldown and was unable to absorb the life force of others.

Instead, she grew more fatigued with each passing moment. This presented an opportune moment for Rhode.

With a commanding tone, Rhode exclaimed, ”Everyone, unleash your full power!”

He raised his sword high into the air, a card materializing at its tip and spinning rapidly.

”Shatter!”

The spirit bird expanded its wings and emitted a resounding cry, transforming into a bolt of lightning that fused with Rhodeʼs blade. Gripping the hilt tightly, Rhode swung his sword down from above.

Boom———!

A dazzling ray of lightning burst forth from the blade, striking Julia with immense force. Electric currents surged and enveloped the colossal spider. Despite her struggle to stand, Julia let out a piercing scream and once again succumbed to paralysis.

Seizing the opportunity, a member of Alexʼs party, a zealous swordsman, laughed heartily as he raised his longsword with both hands and pierced Juliaʼs massive abdomen.

”Ahhhhhh!”

As Julia unleashed a blood-curdling screech, the scarlet longsword sliced through her abdomen, causing putrid blood to spurt from the wound. Desperate to grasp onto something, she reached out for the girl, but her slippery form eluded her like an eel.

In that very moment, Alex raised his arms and drew back his bow, aiming directly at Juliaʼs chest.

Swoosh!

A brilliant light arrow materialized in Alexʼs hands. Without hesitation, he released the arrow, and it pierced through the massive spider.

”———!”

The powerful impact sent Julia hurtling backwards, disrupting her next move. Roaring in futile struggle, she found herself enveloped in a dazzling display of blade rays and magic.

Crack!

After a few moments, Julia collapsed to the ground, her body covered in scars from head to toe. Exhausted and unable to regain her strength or summon her offspring, she had been defeated by the relentless attacks of Rhodeʼs group.

”No... I canʼt die... My nest... My children!”

In the midst of her hoarse snarl, Julia fought desperately against her impending demise. However, her feeble struggles held no meaning to those around her. Observing this scene, Alex shook his head and approached her with a casual stride. As Juliaʼs fading eyes caught sight of his presence, a glimmer of defiance flickered within her.

”Itʼs you! Inhabitants of Light! All of you shall perish here! I will curse you with every ounce of my life...!”

But before Julia could finish her sentence, Alex transformed his bow into a red longsword radiating with holy light. With ruthless determination, the blade pierced through her skull.

In an instant, Julia let out a horrified shriek, and her body faded away like evaporating water, leaving behind a murky, cloudy mist. Within a matter of moments, the immense spider vanished without a trace, leaving only a pile of white ash before Rhode. However, as Alex gazed upon the ashes, a subtle expression crossed his face.

He stared at them for a moment, before shaking his head, realizing that in the face of death, everyone is vulnerable and weak.
