Compared to Chen Dalong’s ease, the performance of the others was somewhat disappointing.

The rest of the team encountered attacks fewer times in total than Chen Dalong alone, and there were at least two or three people watching in every direction.

But even under these circumstances, within just half an hour, 15 people had been injured.

Fortunately, everyone had protection, and the injuries they suffered were not fatal. With some simple bandaging, they could continue to fight.

The only bit of trouble was that one of the members was stung by a poisonous scorpion, and the wound started to turn black, clearly a sign of poisoning.

Although they also had antidotes which temporarily suppressed the toxicity after being used, it still cast a shadow over everyone’s hearts.

If it weren’t for Chen Dalong’s brave performance, if it weren’t for the 15 veterans stabilizing troop morale, if it weren’t for the rich gains over the past half hour, chances are some would have quit already.

Chen Dalong could certainly sense the change in everyone’s mentality, but he didn’t care.

He was well aware that with many messengers secretly protecting them, there was no real danger at all. If anyone couldn’t handle that, he wouldn’t mind dismissing them and recruiting better ones.

Compared to everyone’s mentality, he was more focused on the gains during this period.

Although they had only cleared the area for half an hour, they had already killed a total of 10 large Mutated Beings.

Chen Dalong did a quick calculation and estimated that these 10 Mutated Beings could be exchanged for at least 40 Military Merit Points.

Counting the Mutated Insects they killed along the way, they should also make up another ten or twenty points. So together, the total Military Merit Points would exceed 50.

At this pace, they could earn 100 points in an hour and accumulate enough points to be promoted to Lieutenant in at most five hours.

At this thought, his heart blazed with excitement.

Just then, the voice of the Mutated Parrot came through the Bluetooth headset again, “The Mutated Beings in this area that can be exchanged for Military Merit Points have been almost completely cleared out.”

“Now there’s only one left. If you go in the four o’clock direction for 100 meters, you’ll see it. It’s a big gift for you!”

Surprised by these words, Chen Dalong asked in mild surprise, “Lord Parrot, what kind of big gift?”

“Hey! You’ll know it when you see it,” said the Mutated Parrot.

Seeing Lord Parrot playing coy, Chen Dalong inexplicably started to look forward to it.

He quickly led the team in a new direction, heading straight for the direction Lord Parrot had indicated.

A hundred meters wasn’t a long distance. Chen Dalong, walking at the front, kept parting the thickets and casually killing Mutated Insects that jumped out from them.

As he passed through two small banyan trees once again, he suddenly felt the trees in front of him grow dramatically taller.

Of course, in the forest here, it was normal for the heights of the trees to be varied, so this wasn’t odd.

But when Chen Dalong clearly saw the scene before him, his body hair instantly stood on end.

Among these tall trees, there were a dozen Spider webs, each expanding twenty to thirty meters in width. More importantly, the Spider webs were laden with various Mutated Beings.

The Mutated Insects go without saying, but even more shocking were the dozen or more Mutated Bird Species with wingspans of one to two meters caught in them.

The most terrifying was a Spider web with a Mutated Gray Goose hanging from it, its wingspan reaching 5 meters.

A Mutated Bird of such size, even if encountered by their team, would have to be dealt with cautious care, for one slip could lead to death.

Yet all these were merely prey.

In a Spider web near the center, there was a giant Spider whose size exceeded three meters.

Compared to other Mutated Beings, its size was not particularly massive, but Chen Dalong felt a fatal threat emanating from the creature.

Almost instantly, he deduced that the Mutated Spider he was facing had definitely reached Second Stage, an existence worthy of the danger list.

What frightened him even more was that the Mutated Spider’s eyes were staring at him unblinkingly.

Gulp!

Chen Dalong swallowed hard, his legs trembling at this moment, overwhelmed by an impending sense of dread.

“Don’t be scared, I’ve already broken three of its legs; it’s just bluffing and trying to intimidate us. Hold back that fear and just shoot, and it’ll be done,” the voice of the Mutated Parrot came through the Bluetooth earpiece.

Its words seemed to possess a magical power that immediately stabilized Chen Dalong’s restless heart.

Especially when he clearly saw that the Mutated Spider indeed had three unnaturally bent spider legs, the fear in his heart vanished in an instant.

In its place, excitement took over.

Even without talking about the Second Stage Mutated Spider, just by clearing the Mutated Beings off the spiderweb could probably net him twenty to thirty points. Adding the Second Stage Mutated Spider to the tally, his points would easily surpass a hundred.

This was truly a generous gift.

Killing this Mutated Spider could mean greater rewards than slaving away for half an hour.

These thoughts flashed through Chen Dalong’s mind in an instant, and the next moment he roared out loud.

“Kill!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Gunshots rang out instantly as Chen Dalong pulled the trigger towards the Mutated Spider.

At this moment, the others following behind Chen Dalong had gradually emerged from the thicket, and when they saw the situation here, they too were greatly shaken.

But Chen Dalong’s roar and gunfire served to quickly snap them out of their shock; almost reflexively they began shooting.

The Second Stage Mutated Spider, extremely sensitive to danger, nearly moved the instant Chen Dalong raised his gun. With the few limbs it had left, it moved swiftly.

At the same time, it shot out strands of web from its mouth, casting them over a distance of more than ten meters towards Chen Dalong and the others.

It was also closing in rapidly, intending to bite and kill them.

The counterattack of the Mutated Spider was initially effective. Two veterans who had just passed through the bushes didn’t even have time to react before they were hit by the spiderweb and stuck to a nearby thicket, unable to move.

However, as more and more people arrived, the gunfire became increasingly dense, soon forming a suppressive fire against the Mutated Spider.

Especially when Liu Wenhua and Xie Guanzhong arrived, their extremely precise marksmanship ensured that even if they couldn’t hit vital spots, their shots landed on the body of the Mutated Spider.

As the Mutated Spider accumulated more gunshot wounds, it felt the threat of death and attempted to flee.

But by then it was too late; hit by multiple bullets, its speed had slowed down. Not just its escape, but even its reaction time had decreased.

Under such circumstances, everyone’s hit rate skyrocketed.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

After another round of gunfire, the Mutated Spider’s body sported a dozen more bullet holes, dead beyond doubt.

This time Chen Dalong didn’t care about wasting bullets. With a grandiose wave of his arm, he exclaimed in high spirits, “Let’s go! Take this big fellow with us and exchange it for Military Merit Points.”
