Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 115: Spiders That Can Fire Stuff

Miles looked at the bizarre scene in front of him. From one pipe, a stream of fire, liquid in form jet out aiming towards them, while from the other, green gas oozed out with equal force to the liquid. Two substances, which were dissolving and destructive in nature when separate, became a sticky liquid when combined.

Step back! Miles shouted and grabbed the glass spray from Zalls hand while he dodged the sticky liquid. Spider fired again, but this time the substances didnt merge. He dodged the fire flying towards them and covered his mouth and nose with his clothes lest he inhaled the corrosive gas. In one hand, he was holding the sword, while in the other he was holding the glass spray.

Fuck it, I wish I had a fire elemental orb. Miles cursed under his breath as he approached the spider.

These spiders were used to attack from a range thanks to their unique nature, so when it saw the human was approaching, it fell back while kept on firing, while Miles was analyzing the shortcomings of its attacks.

The green gas is corrosive and probably poisonous, while fire is destructive. At least both the gas and the fire liquid destroy the spider webs around. Miles kited the spider to keep it away from the other webs in case it stumbled upon those behind it and called more of its friend, and used its fires to melt the web around to expand the opening. Spider was much larger than he was expecting, so the area he cleaned wouldnt be enough otherwise.

Luckily, the monster wasnt agile. With its bulky size, and mid-tier level, its speed was lower than Miless. He could dodge the attacks and kite the enemy as he liked. But he couldnt close in either. When he tried to approach, the monster was taking a big leap backwards. If Miles wasnt careful, the spider would hit tens of threads and alert other spiders in the holes.

The spider fired another stream of corrosive gas and liquid of fire. Miles dodged quickly lest he stuck, but the two streams mixed to create a fiber of white viscous binding. Unluckily, it stuck to the webs behind Miles and jerked them slightly.

Miles looked at the holes in terror, and noticed two more heads popping up.

I need you two in here. Miles said with a heavy breath. He passed the spray back at Zall, and kept the sword in his hand.

Bro Miles, where are the orbs you got in Thunderstorm Forest? Xavic asked, while raising his hand to attack with lightning.

Shield got almost broken a few weeks back, and the other is too strong for the G-Circle. It saps dry energy, so I kept it in my room. Miles explained with a sigh. The mask was too strong for his feeble body. Even one use almost broke his bones last time despite its devastating power.

What are we going to do now? Xavic asked in fear.

You stun the spiders while I kill them. Zall you stall the two newcomers. Miles said as he moved towards the spider while the latter fell back once again. He moved on its left to lead the spider towards Xavic. The spiders back was looking at Xavic, so he could land a clear shot.

Zall raised his shield and greeted the two spiders, while Xavic attacked with a bolt of lightning without a delay. But spiders didnt have four pairs of eyes for nothing. Despite being from its blind spot, the spider dodged the bolt masterfully and attacked miles with two liquids once again. Miles dodged barely, and almost got hit by the attacks. Encouraged by its almost success, the spider pressed the attack.

Miles took a step back and jumped into the air. The spider knew by instinct that it was always a good idea to attack the enemy when they were in the air. The chance to dodge was close to none. And it did just that. The two pipes jetted out an exorbitant amount of liquid and gas, while they got larger.

Miles looked at the spider with a grin, and grabbed the web in the air and pulled himself air. While the massive amount of stick fiber moved towards where Miles used to be. But instead, it landed on two spiders that arrived just now. Miles after spending his momentum, with elasticity of the web, he rocketed himself towards the two spiders. He aimed at their right side to tank the fire, exchanging damage to kill them.

Be careful, Miles! Zall shouted but it was two late. The pipes on two spiders side shivered slightly, and liquids different in color sprayed out. The spider on the left had purple and red liquids. Purple liquid looked venomous while red looked like corrosive blood. It was a hellish scene.

The other spiders ability was even more bizarre. Two gases, one pink in color probably hallucinogen and the other ice blue in color, dropping the temperature instantly. Unlike the first spider, when gases mixed, they didnt create a sticky tinder.

It was too late for Miles to dodge the gases, with no other choice, he covered his face with his empty arm, and swung the sword as hard as he could.

The lightning swirl left the sword and hit one of the spiders head on. The destructive and sharp attack made a hole in the spider's exoskeleton. But Miles inhaled the gases while attacking. The corrosive liquid the first spider sprayed also melted his clothes and burned his skin.

From a bigger hole, a giant spider head popped out and surveyed the cave. Previously when Miles rocketed himself with the web, it summoned a spider. Miles thought he could kill two and it wouldnt be a problem even if another appeared, but he was wrong, dead wrong.

Miles landed on the now dead spider, and pierced the others head while he was still functioning. But he could feel the gases were doing their tasks. His vision was getting blurry, while poison and venom was seeping into his system. His sword barely opened a chunk on the exoskeleton. His power was leaving his body faster than he anticipated.

Bro Miles! Xavic cried in panic and ran towards Miles. Zall was about to hold him, but it was too late. With his speed bots, Xavic was in front of falling Miles in a second. Zall looked at the first spider charging his attack.

Xavic, fall back! Zall shouted but Xavic was holding injured Miles. With no other choice, he came before the duo and raised his shield. The sticky fiber stuck on the shield and with a tug, the spider pulled Zall and the shield together.

Spray the liquid, Zall Miles shouted with his wisp of consciousness, but Zall had a painful expression. He held the spray in his hand and looked at the spider flying towards him. He wanted to press the trigger and spray the deadly liquid on the arachnid's face.

My friends' lives are in danger! I hav I have to do it! Zalls hand, holding the glass spray, shivered. His finger on the trigger was shaking like mad. Spider was in front of his face, but in the end, he failed to press it.

SCREECH! At the time, a loud screech was heard, and all cave started to quake.
