At this time, she just relied on her rich combat experience to prevent Elise from realizing that she was at the end of her strength.
But danger is danger, Lux is still conscious and thinking calmly.
During the simulation training, she experienced enough "deaths", which allowed her to remain calm even when faced with extremely dangerous situations and look for opportunities to make a comeback.
So, where is the opportunity?
Silently assessing her own condition, Lux concluded that the only chance to win was to seriously injure Elise's body.
There are too many spiders around, including self-destructing spiders, and Elise is still staying behind...
It's too difficult.
Raising her shield again, she pushed back the spider that was rushing toward her, and shook off the sticky liquid on it. Lux took a deep breath while swinging her sword across the spider.
If there is still a chance, there must still be a chance!
Regardless of physical exertion, she continued to sweep on the spot, temporarily forcing back the spiders around her. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, she tried hard to recall every move, word and deed of Elise before, trying to find out from the details.
The flaw she inadvertently revealed.
What Elise had said and done, Lux quickly went through it in her mind.
From her obscene words when she appeared, to her cautious attack methods, to the self-destructing spider, the spider silk thrown out after the self-destructing spider hit her...
Wait, spider silk!
Why did she suddenly change back to human form when she was hit by the venom splashed by the self-destructing spider for the first time, and then throw out a ball of spider silk mixed with shadow energy?
Why did this vicious woman who had been clinging to the end from the beginning suddenly change her tactics and take action herself?
Why did she suddenly retreat behind the spider swarm again after she took the initiative?
In the blink of an eye, an unclear clue quickly formed in Lux's mind. She swung her sword again and swept away a group of spiders that were rushing towards her - and then she finally made up her mind.
The next moment, two self-destructing spiders jumped out from the spider group again, heading straight for Lux one after the other. This time, she successfully dodged the feint attack of the one in front, but was pounced by the one behind.
Got it right.
"ah--"
Amid a low cry of pain, the self-destructing spider exploded on her back.
The smelly venom splashed out with astonishing shadow energy. This time, even though Lux quickly threw herself forward, she still could not avoid it.
The coat outside the rune steel armor was completely eroded, and the back of Lux's neck was a bloody mess.
Lux, who fell among the spiders, reluctantly turned over and tried to stand up, but failed several times.
Under this situation, she could only wave the weapon in her hand wildly like a madman while wailing in pain.
Protected by the rune steel armor, her small body twitched from time to time, and foam finally overflowed from the corners of her tightly pursed mouth.
In her hand, the light of the sword and shield was dimming at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this scene, Elise finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This difficult little girl was finally poisoned.
This is the performance of spider poison - convulsions, difficulty breathing, drooling at the corners of the mouth. Many people have fallen in front of Elise like this, and Elise will give them different treatments based on their value.
ending.
Innocuous creatures become food for ordinary spiders.
Valuable ones will become a hatchery for self-destructing spiders.
And for people like Lux... Elise will use spider silk to tie her into a cocoon and bring her back to the Maw of Despicableness - the rhythmic spider silk will squeeze Lux's front center, allowing her to maintain her strongest strength.
Basic breathing will prevent you from suffocating to death under the influence of neurotoxins.
The cautious Elise threw a ball of spider silk. Lux on the ground seemed to want to dodge, but in the end she couldn't avoid it. In Elise's satisfied eyes, she was stuck by this ball of spider silk.
Wrapped up.
It’s done.
After waving her hand to repel the pets who wanted to eat, Elise stepped on her high heels and came to Lux.
"What a cute little girl." She leaned down and created more spider silk, "It's a pity that you chose the wrong opponent-"
Before she finished speaking, a dazzling bright light suddenly lit up from inside the spider silk cocoon. The astonishing brilliance pierced the tough spider silk and hit Elise herself without any warning.
This beam of light seemed like a tangible spear, piercing through Elise's humanoid body and completely penetrating her entire left lower abdomen.
With this astonishing blow, Elise was lifted up, thrown horizontally for several meters, and fell directly into the spider swarm.
At the same time, the unfinished spider silk cocoon on the ground was cracked inch by inch. Lux gritted her teeth, flapped a pair of pure light-cast wings, and emerged from the cocoon into a butterfly!
After landing, Elise transformed into a spider form and stared viciously at Lux in front of her with her eight eyes.
"You deceived me!" In spider form, her voice was sharp and harsh, "You were not poisoned at all!"
"It's true that I haven't been hit by spider poison." Lux leaned over and picked up her "sword and shield", waved away the surrounding spiders, and strode towards Elise, "But I can see many other poisons -
—It seems I guessed it right, these toxins manifest themselves in similar forms!"
Elise made a harsh neighing sound from her mouth, seeming to be cursing Lux for her cunning, but at the same time, her eight legs were retreating involuntarily.
She...is scared.
One shot from Lux's light-forged spear would definitely cause serious injury even to Elise.
In addition, Lux, who spread her pair of light wings, didn't look tired at all. After assessing the enemy's situation, she thought she should retreat.
There is no point in continuing to fight. I am just here to help Cassiopeia, there is no need to fight desperately!
As a chosen one of the Spider God, the Vile Maw, Elise has a long lifespan, and she is not willing to put herself here for someone else's mission!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So, as Lux pressed closer and closer, she simply retreated quickly, and quickly retreated into the spider web she had laid before, and then coiled the silk
Hanging up, the figure quickly disappeared into the shadows.
Lux, on the other hand, was chasing after her like crazy. After destroying a large number of cannon fodder spiders that were blocking her, she finally leaned against an abandoned wall slumped.
After a moment, the blue bird hovering in the sky landed back on her shoulder.
"Is she dead?"
"Let's go - she had already prepared the spider web for escape, and quickly left Za'an hanging on the spider web. Even though her movements were not very agile, Ino did not keep her."
"What a shame, you said she was a chosen one from the Maw of Despicability?"
"Yes, he must be the chosen one of that big spider."
"Despicable Throat..." Lux nodded, "I have recorded this account."
"Compared to the Despicable Maw, you should think more about yourself." Janna sighed, "Ino and the others are coming soon. I heard that you were injured, and Ino is about to die."
"Ah this..." Lux struggled to get up, but in the end she sat down weakly, "This is so embarrassing. It's time for Kalya to say I'm embarrassed again."
"No, it's not embarrassing at all." Janna gently summoned a breeze, "How did you know that after you were poisoned, she would definitely wrap you with spider silk and take the initiative to get close to you?"
"Because that's what she did when the poisonous spider self-destructed for the first time." A pale smile appeared on Lux's face, "She seemed to have made up her mind to control me as long as I was poisoned - Spider Silk
It is the best cover for me to hide the light-forged spear, and it also allows her to take the initiative to approach me."
"So you are not actually poisoned." Janna, who has little combat experience, does not know much about this kind of intrigue between people, "but I clearly saw a spider behind you exploding..."
"That was the light's trick. There were two spiders that exploded, and the venom was only sprinkled on the armor on the back, not my neck." Lux twitched the corner of her mouth, "Thanks to her attacking from the front and back, she gave me the
Space to pull.”
"You really acted like one." Janna flapped her wings twice, "that twitching look, and biting her lips but couldn't help drooling, looking like she was out of breath."
"Thanks to the ordinary poisonous spider that was used as a cover. Its body fluids are also toxic to a certain extent. I just exaggerated the performance a little." Lux twisted her neck slightly, opened her mouth, and took two hard breaths.
He said, "Things like poisoning become stereotyped after you have experienced them a lot... This is what Kalya taught you."
The little cyan bird flapped its wings twice and finally stopped asking any more questions.
However, she decided to ask Kalya later and ask what he had taught Lux - obviously your previous teaching was not like this!
……………………
When Ino and others arrived at the scene, everything had settled.
The blue bird flew onto Ino's shoulder and briefly told her about the battle just now.
And Eno looked at the extremely embarrassed Lux in front of her, with white and black armor on her body. Ino almost ran away on the spot - the temperature around her began to drop rapidly. If Kalya hadn't reminded her, she even had a faint tendency to lose control of her magic power.
.
"My fault, it's all my fault." Ino held Lux in her arms and put the sword into her hand, "If I hadn't been able to figure this out and needed Kalya's help to look after it, you could also
No need to face such danger..."
"What are you talking about?" Lux shook her head feebly, "It's the same with Kalya here - and it's my choice to stay here and fight."
"My mission is to protect you." Ino obviously disagreed with this statement and shook his head stubbornly, "Promise me that you will leave as soon as possible next time you encounter such a situation, okay?"
"That's right." Hilko, whose face looked much better, nodded, "You are very important..."
Behind Hilko, Fandel also nodded.
"No, I won't leave." Lux's tone was weak but firm, "Even if it happens again, I won't leave."
"Don't be brave!" Ino was a little anxious, "You were almost in danger!"
"I am indeed a little scared, but it's not because of the danger." Lux seemed to have regained some strength and struggled to stand up, "Come on, come with me, and you will understand."
Ino really wanted Lux to return to the tavern to recuperate immediately, but Lux insisted on her own opinion. In this case, she could only follow Lux back to the place where she met Talon.
Here, Lux ignored the stacked spider corpses and followed the traces of spider silk into a remote alley.
This is a residential area.
In other words, a slum—according to Zaun's standards, it can be considered a slum.
However, although it was dilapidated and deserted, each house at least looked like a home, with the fence-like doors and windows tightly closed.
Counting the time, it should be time for everyone to get up, but the alley was silent, as quiet as a ghost.
Even though she had been mentally prepared, Lux's face was still filled with tears when she saw this scene.
And behind her, whether it was Ino or others, their hearts were also in silence, sinking to the bottom little by little.
"Do you remember this place?" Lux whispered, "Ever since we started cleaning the mine, we have passed by the alley every day."
Ino said nothing.
No one else spoke.
"This is close to the mining area, and it is also the most fringe place in Zaun." Walking in the deserted, narrow alley, Lux continued, "Don't talk about the Picheng people, even the Zaun people are actually not
I understand, I don’t care here.”
"Actually, I don't know much. I only know that when I pass by from Fulgan's Tavern to the mine every day, I say hello to them, and they also say hello to me." Standing in one place has obviously been specially leveled out.
In the open space, Lux pointed to the target painted with unknown paint on the wall next to her, "Milot likes to brag with them. They will believe whatever Milo says."

"The head household is a bachelor uncle. He is missing an eye and said that the tool I used to carry water was unreasonable."
"The guy said he had a better way, but he wanted me to have a gold hex - but then he changed his mind and said it didn't need that much."
"..."
"The owner of this small house works in a dark alley at night. When we finish work every day, she just goes out. I don't like the look of heavy makeup."
"But to be honest, she is the most enthusiastic one here. She made the balls that the children play with."
"..."
"A few days ago, the lame aunt here asked me if she could help me leave some clean water under the bucket when she came back every day. She said she wanted to grow flowers. In return, she could teach me a few things.

"She said her man is a great magician, but I have never met him. I only know that she and his silly son depend on each other."
"..."
"There is also this one. The man is a drunkard. He used to be an apprentice in a workshop in a dark alley..."
"This family..."
"This family..."
"..."
"..."
In the silence of others, Lux opened simple doors one after another, telling inconspicuous stories one after another.
But behind these doors, there are no more people struggling to live - instead, there are sticky spider webs, cracked spider eggs, and spiders that have not fully grown up.
Lux stopped in front of a graffiti wall at the end of the alley.
"That's why I didn't leave."
Finally, no one in the team spoke.
Only on the graffiti wall behind Lux, the sun painted on the top, which had never been bathed in real sunlight, was grinning heartlessly.
