Chapter 8 Unlocking the Spine Crawler

It is that water monster, but at this moment, its head has been crushed, floating on the water's surface like a dead fish

It is evident that that fellow regarded him as a sumptuous meal, willing to swallow him whole even at the risk of being crushed by the collapsing bridge.

However, with the addition of these 100 points, the crystal value is only 146. The spine needle reptile must be hatched by a worker bee. The initial worker bee was used up by him to construct the splitting pool, and now it is necessary to hatch another worker bee, which will cost 150 crystals back and forth, leaving a shortfall of 4 points.

The water monster floated and sank with the waves, showing no signs of movement whatsoever

Then, a blinding light flashed, and Grosso's deep, hoarse voice came through: "Isn't this Your Excellency the Commander?"

Tang Fang was momentarily taken aback, but then couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter. This truly was a case of turning misfortune into fortune, of sweet after bitter. Losing 3 puppies in exchange for a new building, along with 100 points of life energy, is undoubtedly a gain, indeed a significant profit.

Bang, bang. The dazzling light illuminated the surroundings, and a powerful explosion shattered the stone bridge into three pieces. With a sudden tilt beneath his feet, Tang Fang lost his balance and fell downward.

昂

Wait, cross the bridge only after he has reached the other side

"Lawrence, blow up the other end, otherwise, the next time we meet, I will sever your head with a single stroke"

Although his life was spared, it is a pity that all three puppies perished. When they fell from the bridge, the crystal value changed three times in succession, rising from 31 to 46, an increase of exactly 15 points. Tang Fang knew that Aros must have killed all three of them.

He boldly unfastened a fragmentary hand grenade from his waist and swam forward

Tang Fang squinted his eyes and did not move

The woman and Aros fell silent once again, leaving the three of them feeling bored and unable to help but share an awkward smile

The roar of the angry dragon echoed, suggesting that they had likely escaped the range of the broken bridge. Tang Fang turned the gun around and glanced back.

The collection of life energy is complete, quantity 100

Accompanied by a sharp chorus of insect chirps, three gusts of fierce wind swept through, and a small dog directly seized the shark head of the water monster, its sharp claws easily piercing through the tough exterior and deeply embedding themselves into the body of the water monster

The other two puppies also pounced on the water monster, their claws working in unison, inflicting wound after wound that oozed with purple bodily fluid.

Creak!

A spray of green bodily fluid erupted from the jagged gaps of the teeth

Tang Fang fell into the water pool, while stones falling from a height of over ten zhang nearby landed around him, splashing countless droplets of water

The continuous sound of a dragon's roar came, then gradually faded away. After a while, with the surging waves, a hint of unusual color appeared a few meters in front of Tang Fang

Either being crushed or devoured, Tang Fang had no other choice. While sweeping with his gun, images from the system flashed through his mind

"Hey, boss, guess who I saw?" Just as he paused to think, a loud shout filled with excitement suddenly came from across the street.

Unlock the building "Spine Needle Crawler", Life Energy 100

With a mournful cry, bodily fluids splattered as the puppy was pierced through by the tail of the water monster

Bang

The stone bridge was exceptionally slippery, with the excrement of rock worms visible everywhere. Tang Fang carefully controlled his steps, slowly moving forward.

Just as he determined the position of the platform and prepared to dive into the water to swim quickly away from the lethal range of the collapsing bridge, suddenly, the surface of the pool erupted with splashes, and a shadow, several meters long, leapt up abruptly, heading straight towards him to bite.

After a short while, the woman poked her head out of the cave entrance and surveyed the surroundings below, unconsciously furrowing her brow. Seeing Tang Fang ascend the bridge, she hesitated for a moment, just as she was about to follow suit, a voice from behind interrupted her.

It was not until this moment that Tang finally saw the full appearance of the water monster; it actually had two tails, one resembling a fish's tail fin, while the other resembled the stinger of a scorpion

The water monster let out a wailing sound akin to a dragon's roar, twisting its body with great effort, raising its long tail, and suddenly thrusting it onto the back of a small dog.

Puff, puff, puff

Without daring to pause for a moment, he hurriedly swam towards the platform. Even if stones struck his body, causing unbearable pain, and even if the mournful cries of a second puppy echoed behind him, only one belief resided in his mind: do not hesitate, do not look back, escape, survive

昂

The woman glanced unexpectedly at the person behind her and said, "I thought you didn't care about anything."

Countless stones fell into the pond, and Tang Fang turned the muzzle of his gun, the light sweeping across a platform covered with insect eggs.

"What are you two talking about?" At that moment, the three guys behind also caught up, peering out to see the situation outside the hole, their expressions turning somewhat grim

As Grosso's voice fell, the man who had just stepped onto the bridge twitched his facial muscles, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. He reached for his waist and similarly took out a high-explosive grenade, rolling to the side.

昂

The man with a scar at the corner of his mouth glanced at Tang Fang on the stone bridge, unconsciously taking two steps forward and walking slowly onto the bridge. Aros frowned slightly but did not intervene

The water monster behind stirred up large splashes of water, and the last little dog was finally shaken off. With a flick of its scorpion tail, it was sent to its mouth and bitten down.

A sudden rush of wind swept past his ears, accompanied by a foul odor that assaulted his face. Tang Fang was taken aback, quickly redirecting the muzzle of his gun. Under the light, a creature resembling a snake in shape, yet possessing a head akin to that of a shark, was opening its large mouth, lunging towards his head.

Detected foreign insect DNA sequence

Spine Needle Crawler: Consumes 100 crystals, has 300 health points, which is nearly 10 times that of a puppy, possesses building armor, has strong attack capabilities, and does not occupy a unit.

Thud

Z.

In the flickering light, he heard the laughter of Grosso and others, and he also saw the blood gushing from the woman's knife as it sliced through Lawrence's throat

After walking for a while, Tang Fang raised his head to survey the path ahead and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although the stone bridge was not wide, it was quite sturdy. As long as one maintained good balance, crossing it in one go was not a difficult task

After a few breaths, he arrived beside the corpse of the water monster. After confirming that it was truly dead, Tang Fang extended his right hand towards its wound.

However, there was one thing that puzzled him greatly; after the death of this water monster, he surprisingly could not collect any life energy. After much hesitation, he ultimately decided to swim over and take a look

Wow, wow

The water monster's ink-black eyes glimmered with a light of hatred as it let out a roar towards his back, slapping the water's surface with its tail fin, and lunged at him once more

There is an ancient saying in Huaxia that goes, "Meeting is fate." I have a gift here, and I hope Your Excellency the Commander will graciously accept it, hahahaha..." Accompanied by his maniacal laughter, a high-explosive grenade rolled off the stone bridge.

One wave, two waves, three waves, three ripples rose in succession in the air

Accompanied by a loud explosion, water splashed into the air, and the ten-zhang-long broken bridge crashed down, creating a towering wave on the surface of the pool

The only drawback is its slow movement, making it suitable only for ground defense. However, for the current Tang faction, the spine needle crawler is far more useful than a small dog. It essentially serves as a mobile base, and the issue of slow speed, after his second modification, can clearly no longer be considered a disadvantage.

Reorganize gene structure, gene level E+, research tree unlocked, technology level 1, unlock building 'Spinal Reptile'

His personality is very much to my liking," Aros said, glancing at Tang Fang on the stone bridge

Tang Fang let out a sigh of relief, fortunate to have dodged in time; otherwise, he would likely have met the same fate as it.
