During the bickering and joking, the relationship between Li Xiao and Zhou Qing no longer had the same tension as before.
After he saved her and she saved him one after another, the two of them even developed some feelings that surpassed those of companions, and there was just the slightest hint of ambiguity.
The two of them also discovered this fact, but they didn't say anything and naturally acquiesced.
After repairing for a while, Li Xiao embarked on the cave exploration journey again.
According to Zhou Qing, since she was fine, she followed Li Xiao and continued exploring together.
Of course, the swamp in front of him could no longer be walked from above, but this was not a problem for Li Xiao. With the help of his hooks, he firmly fixed several supporting points on the rock wall.
With the help of these hooks and claws, Li Xiao and Zhou Qing swung through the quagmire while swinging in mid-air.
Continuing to explore deeper into the cave, as we go deeper and deeper, white spider webs gradually appear in the passage, and a giant spider also appears.
"Be careful, there is probably a spider nest ahead!" Seeing such a scene, Li Xiao immediately thought of the spider nest in the volcanic cave.
"Yeah!" Zhou Qing responded while shooting several incoming spiders with his pistol.
After taking a look at Zhou Qing, Li Xiao was determined.
Fortunately, Zhou Qing's personality is not afraid of these multi-legged spiders; if it were Zhou Yilai at this moment, he would have been so frightened that he would have thrown himself into Li Xiao's arms.
Seeing that Zhou Qing had already stepped forward to decompose the spider's body, Li Xiao quickly shook his head to dispel the random thoughts in his head.
By the way, why did he miss Zhou Yi when he saw Zhou Qing, and why did he miss Zhou Qing when he saw Zhou Yi...
Continuing forward, after turning a corner, a cave covered with spider webs appeared in front of them.
Densely packed giant spiders filled the entire cave. Deep in the cave, there was an incubation nest full of spider eggs.
In the hatching nest, more than a dozen domineering-looking carapace spiders were walking around, picking out some necrotic spider eggs from time to time.
Although he had seen it more than once, Li Xiao couldn't help but get goosebumps when he saw the dense spider nest again.
Looking at Zhou Qing again, although she was not afraid, it could be seen from her frown that he did not like the dense scene in front of him, which would make a person with trypophobia collapse.
Li Xiao checked the ammunition of the pistol in his hand and looked at Zhou Qing solemnly.
Zhou Qing, on his side, also loaded his bullets and nodded towards Li Xiao!
Although the two of them can apply insect repellent and quickly pass through the side of the spider cave, the spiders in this cave are not only spiders, but also full of experience points.
To deal with these spiders, which pose little threat, there is no better place to gain experience than here.
Bang bang bang...
The gun in Li Xiao's hand was the first to spit out flames, and the spiders closest to them immediately screamed and fell down.
For a large number of spiders, the killing efficiency of the pistol is still not high.
Li Xiao took out a black round object from the inventory, pulled off the tab on it and threw it into the spiders.
boom!
This black ball is the simple grenade that Li Xiao unlocked at level 38. Although this thing is not as lethal as Earth's fragmentation grenade, there are too many spiders in front of it.
As soon as the grenade was fired, spider limbs scattered all over the sky. At this time, more than a dozen spiders died in the explosion.
Zhou Qing also had a simple grenade prepared by Li Xiao for her. She also fired and threw the grenade at the same time.
Gunshots mixed with explosions rang out in the spider lair. For a moment, the ordinary spiders outside fell down like wheat.
Li Xiao pinched a grenade, rounded his arms, and threw it directly into the spider eggs deep in the nest.
The grenade exploded, and the air wave fragments it brought severely tore apart the surrounding spider eggs. For a moment, the mucus in the spider eggs splashed everywhere.
At this moment, a dozen powerful carapace spiders were completely enraged. They were so fast that they rushed towards Li Xiao, Zhou Qing and the others, skipping the ordinary spiders on the periphery.
It’s you who’ve been waiting!
Li Xiao showed a cruel smile and took out the legendary long-barreled rifle.
Aiming at a carapace spider, Li Xiao pulled the trigger.
The next second, the bullet's powerful kinetic energy penetrated directly through the body of the carapace spider, exploding its belly!
How can flesh and blood resist hot weapons?
A dozen carapace spiders were killed one by one by Li Xiao with a long-barreled rifle before they even got close to him.
Compared with ordinary weapons, the gap between legendary weapons is huge!
With legendary weapons in hand, Li Xiao's combat effectiveness has almost qualitatively improved.
There were too many spiders. Li Xiao and Zhou Qing fought and retreated, and one of them retreated into the passage.
A lot of bullets were consumed, and when no spider could move anymore, the two looked at each other, smiled, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Have you upgraded?" Li Xiao asked first.
"Well, I've reached level 30, five levels in a row!"
"Yes, I have also been promoted to level 49."
Li Xiao opened the inventory and looked at the unlocked new drawings:
[Baryonyx Saddle (Original)] [Generator] [Cable] [Socket] [Large Metal Wall]
[Name: Baryonyx Saddle (original)]
[Damage resistance: low]
[Note: My claws are very heavy, so I am called Baryonyx!]
…
[Name: Generator]
[Production requirements: Metal ingot x20 and circuit original x30]
[Remarks: The use of energy has changed dramatically due to the generator, and a highly efficient energy source has been opened, electric energy!]
The unlocking of drawings such as generators, cables, and sockets completely brought Li Xiao's development into the electrical age.
What makes Li Xiao most happy is that soon, he will be able to use electric lights!
Nights without electric lights were shrouded in darkness and silence. As a modern person, Li Xiao was very uncomfortable with such nights.
The advent of the electrical age has also enhanced Li Xiao's work ability. With light at night, his working hours can be greatly extended.
As for the baryonyx saddle——
Baryonyx is a creature that often lives in swamp areas. Generally speaking, there is nothing special about this creature.
The speed is not slow, but it is not as good as the Velociraptor; the attack power is not weak, but it is not as good as a medium-to-large creature like the God Crocodosaurus.
It was a pretty useless creature, so Li Xiao was not prepared to tame it.
As for large metal walls, this thing can be summed up in one sentence - expensive!
The defensive power of large metal walls is unquestionable! Each large metal wall is made of pure iron ingots, eight meters high and half a meter thick!
Put there, it's like a city wall of pure metal!
With such defense power, not to mention small and medium-sized animals, it is a creature on the level of Tyrannosaurus rex. It is impossible to destroy this wall!
Such a thick metal wall not only has strong defense power, but also means that it requires a lot of metal raw materials.
As far as Li Xiao's current metal ingot reserves at home are concerned, I'm afraid he won't be able to make even half of them!
