Chapter 623 Killing the Eyeless Spider King
He glanced at Kenichi Sato.
Kenichi Sato didn't look this way.
His attention was completely focused on the BOSS. Two knives rained down on the same spot on the Spider King's head, where a hole the size of a basketball had been pierced, and bodily fluids gushed out like a fountain.
But the Spider King is not dead yet.
Fifteen percent.
ten percent.
【Spiderweb】
The Spider King suddenly raised its body, its mouthparts pointing to the sky, and sprayed out a large clump of grayish-white spider silk.
The spider silk exploded in the air, turning into a giant, all-encompassing net that covered the entire dome space.
Spider silk fell from above, and everyone—including tanks, DPS, healers, and even Kenichi Sato—was stuck in it.
Movement speed reduced by 50%.
It's not immobilization, but it's similar.
"Disperse! Disperse them quickly!" Kobayashi Hikaru shouted.
The priests began using their dispel abilities, but dispelling takes time, and the boss wouldn't give them that time.
The Spider King opened its massive maw and spewed a stream of venom at the crowd in front of it.
The venom spread out in a fan shape, covering an area thirty meters in front of the tanks. More than a dozen tanks were directly hit by the venom, their armor hissing and their health dropping rapidly.
Three tanks were killed instantly, and five tanks were left with low health.
"Healing! Group healing!" Kobayashi Hikaru's voice rose an octave.
The healers were desperately trying to heal, but the dispel wasn't finished yet, everyone's movement speed was still halved, and their positions started to become chaotic.
Someone stepped on the ground where the venom remained, their armor was corroded through, and they collapsed with a scream.
Some people get stuck in spider silk and then attacked by small spiders, dying before they even have time to react.
The number of deaths in the Dark Ravens jumped from 400 to 450, and then to 500.
"President!" Kobayashi Hikaru called out.
Kenichi Sato did not answer.
His hands were stuck to the Spider King's carapace by spider silk, but he did not struggle.
He did something no one expected.
He loosened the incision.
His hands were removed from the hilts of the swords, leaving only two swords stuck in the Spider King's head.
Then he flipped over and jumped off the Spider King's back.
Upon landing, he reached behind his waist with both hands and drew two more knives.
Everyone was stunned.
Kenichi Sato always used only two swords, one long and one short.
No one has ever seen him use a third or fourth knife.
"What the hell?" Yamamoto Tatsuno's eyes widened. "He has more?"
Kenichi Sato offered no explanation.
His figure moved swiftly through the spiderweb-like network—even at a 50% reduction in speed, he was still faster than most people.
He circled around to the other side of the Spider King, and simultaneously stabbed the BOSS's fourth leg joint with the blades in both hands.
My leg is broken.
The Spider King's body tilted again.
Kenichi Sato drew his sword, stepped on the severed leg, and leaped to the side of the BOSS's abdomen.
Two knives were simultaneously plunged into the gaps in the abdominal carapace, and then pulled forcefully.
His abdomen was ripped open with a gash more than a meter long.
Bodily fluids and some kind of black fragments of internal organs gushed out of the opening, soaking Kenichi Sato.
He did not back down.
His hands reached behind his waist again—and there were two more knives.
Yamamoto Tatsuno's mouth opened into an "O" shape.
Kobayashi Hikaru pushed up his glasses, and the smile on his lips finally deepened.
"President, you've been keeping this a secret for a long time."
Kenichi Sato ignored him.
Two new knives simultaneously pierced the wound that had just been opened, churning wildly inside the Spider King's body.
The boss's health dropped from 8% to 5%.
Three percent.
one percent.
The Spider King's body convulsed violently, its eight legs kicking wildly on the ground, its mouthparts opening and closing with a clicking sound.
That was a struggle before death.
Kenichi Sato stood beside the dying behemoth, his hands gripping a knife. His black outfit was soaked with bodily fluids and clung to his body, making him look as if he had been pulled from a pool of blood.
He watched the Spider King convulse and did not continue his attack.
"Focus fire," he said.
The sound wasn't loud, but it could be heard throughout the entire dome space.
The remaining nearly three thousand players unleashed their skills simultaneously.
Various magical lights illuminated the dim nest, like a dazzling fireworks display.
The Spider King's health dropped from one percent to zero percent.
A system notification popped up in the view of all players involved in the battle.
[Ding! Boss - Eyeless Spider King defeated.]
The Spider King's body collapsed with a crash, its eight legs curled up into a ball, and its mouthparts slowly closed.
The glowing patterns on its body surface completely went out, and its dark purple carapace turned deathly gray.
Then, a white beam of light rose from the Spider King's corpse and shot straight up to the dome.
The beam of light lasted for about five seconds, then slowly dissipated.
A pile of glittering loot was left on the ground—equipment, materials, gold coins, skill books, and several rare items that glowed with a purple light.
"We won!!!"
Someone shouted first, and then the entire nest erupted in deafening cheers.
"Finally killed it!"
"My God, they've been playing for almost an hour, haven't they?"
"Fifty-two minutes, I've started the timer."
"I felt like it lasted longer than an hour; my hands were shaking from playing."
"I died once, and it cost me fifty gold to repair my equipment. It hurts."
"Don't be sad, look how much your experience bar has gone up!"
"Holy crap! I leveled up!"
"I got promoted too! From 36 to 37!"
"This boss gave way too much experience!"
"The level difference is huge. If you fight a boss that's more than ten levels higher, how can you not get a lot of experience?"
"Where's the student council president? Where is he?"
"The guild leader emerging from the boss's stomach was so cool!"
Kenichi Sato stood beside the Spider King's corpse, two knives in his hands still dripping a mixture of bodily fluids and blood.
He glanced down at the system panel.
Experience bar: Level 40, 0%.
I went from level 39 to 40, fought a level 50 boss, and over 800 small spiders before finally reaching the required level.
He tucked the two knives back into his waistband.
Kobayashi Hikaru came over and handed him a bottle of cleaning solution and a cloth.
"Guild leader, congratulations on reaching level 40."
Kenichi Sato took the cleaning agent, poured some onto a cloth, and began to wipe the knife.
Starting with the first one, wipe it clean and put it back on your waist.
Then came the second one.
His movements were slow and meticulous, as if he were performing some kind of ritual.
Hikaru Kobayashi pushed up his glasses, glanced at the pile of fallen items on the ground, and then at the cheering members of the Dark Ravens.
"President, the third round starts in less than three hours."
Kenichi Sato finished wiping the last knife and threw the cloth on the ground.
He looked up at the fragments of glowing moss that had been shaken off the dome, then at his experience bar.
"Go back and rest," Kenichi Sato said. "Distribute the equipment and buy all the supplies."
He turned around and walked towards the exit of the nest.
