Apocalypse: Counterattack of a Cannon Fodder

chapter 30: The Perfect Teamwork

Just one move. Jiang Huai was shocked that Tang Shi looked very thin but was able to defend Major's quick attack. He knew very well how powerful the Major was. Everyone was afraid of him. Not only was he famous for his strictness, but also because of his terrifying combat effectiveness.

Yan Xu was very satisfied with Tang Shi's reaction. Without hesitation, he threw all four element energy crystals into his mouth.

Jiang Huai also ate. Immediately he felt the strong energy spreading out in his body, and quickly strengthening his body.

Tang Shi had never seen Jiang Huai in his past life. When he met Yan Xu, he was alone. It was obvious to know what had happened to Jiang Huai in last life. If it wasn't for him tonight, Jiang Huai would definitely have left after dinner. He would have met the end of the world before he arrived home. It was most likely that he died on the way.

This time, Yan Xu consumed five single-digit element energy, enough to completely repair the damage to his body. Tang Shi watched his severely burned left face recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. They sat there for a while, waiting for the energy in their bodies to be taken in before opening their eyes.

Tang Shi knew that Jiang Huai could completely get two single-digit element energy. As long as his luck wasn't too bad, he would not die from consuming the element energy crystal. Tang Shi looked at Yan Xu. After the repair was completed, Yan Xu still had less than three single-digit element energy, which was very good. He put his hand into his pocket and "took out" another element energy collector. This one was prepared for Yan Xu, but he never had the chance to give it to him. Now Tang Shi didn't say anything and put the element energy collector on Yan Xu's left wrist.

As soon as the "watch" was put on, there was a warm feeling on the surface of the skin, as if the energy was sinking into the body.

Yan Xu took a deep look at Tang Shi and didn't ask anything.

Jiang Huai was excited as Yan Xu's left face was fully recovered, "How did you get this thing? Will it show up after killing the monster?"

Tang Shi was not sure. "There should be. It appeared when I killed the monster."

"That's good. We should collect more," Jiang Huai waved his fist full of strength.

Element energy crystal was indeed a treasure, but it was only effective for people who were awake. In his past life, many people thought that as long as they became the awoken, they would be superior to others. In fact, the world of the awoken was even crueler. In the past, Tang Shi had been working hard for three years to get to level 4 of Awakening. Tang Shi had heard that there was a higher level in the Awakening period. Tang Shi had no idea of what it was because his level was not that high.

However, right now, the element energy crystal was indeed a treasure.

Half an hour before the end of the world, the element energy in the air was the purest, and very beneficial to the human body. Therefore, Tang Shi put the element energy collector on Yan Xu in the risk of being doubted. Once they wasted a second of collecting the element energy, they might not have the second chance.

When Yan Xu and Jiang Huai were familiar with their physical changes, Tang Shi took out the food that Jiang Huai brought at night. Regardless of whether Yan Xu agreed or not, he stuffed all the food into his marching bag. In his current situation, if he wanted to return to his apartment, there would be a big fight. He could not take food from his space in front of them. So he could only bring some with him.

The most important thing in the end of the world was definitely strength. With strength, you can get anything you want. But what was the most important thing to stay alive? It was definitely not gold, silver, or treasure. It was food for sure. After experiencing hunger in the end of the world, Tang Shi absolutely did not allow any waste of food. Therefore, all food and drink were packed and ready to be taken away.

Yan Xu did not stop Tang Shi. He had already felt that this incident was very serious. No one could say when it would end. If they didn't have food, they would starve to death.

Tang Shi was still packing food in his bag when he suddenly stopped and looked at the balcony. The other two were also keenly aware of something. Yan Xu did a silent gesture to Tang Shi and gently loaded the gun. Tang Shi quietly reached out for the metal rod on the ground.

A huge black shadow jumped in and pressed them down!

"Bang!" Yan Xu fired. Surprisingly, the bullet was bounced back as if it was hit on a steel plate. It caused no harm to the black shadow.

Tang Shi roared, "It's the big spider!"

Raising the metal rod, he hit the black shadow that was about to land. The black shadow, which was as big as a dinner table, was hit away. Tang Shi used all his strength this time. Thanks to his current physical strength that was three times higher than ordinary people, he could use it against the spider. Even so, his right arm was trembling slightly.

The ghost spider fell in the corner of the wall, turned over and rushed over again.

The three people immediately scattered. Tang Shi had a lot of experience in fighing against the ghost spiders. But it was the first time for Yan Xu and Jiang Huai to see such a big spider. As both of them were soldiers, they were not afraid of the spiders.

Yan Xu was quite observant. He already realized that bullets were useless against the monster. Without wasting bullets, he dodged around the house.

Tang Shi quickly said, "It is tough and poisonous all over its body. Don't touch it. Its weakness are its eyes. Previously, I blinded the spider before I killed it."

Yan Xu immediately raised his gun and shot the big spider's red eyes. Yan Xu was absolutely good at shooting guns. Besides, he was so close to the target. But the bullet was bounced off by the spider's leg. The ghost spider used the spider legs to protect its eyes and mouth as if it knew that those were its weakness.

"Is it getting smart or what?" Tang Shi shouted and hit the spider leg.

Low level creatures generally didn't have much intelligence. But this spider knew how to defend itself.

Tang Shi and Jiang Huai took up a corner each and trapped the ghost spider in the living room. As long as it attacked one of them, it would be attacked back by both. Yan Xu took a movable spot, moving back and forth like a pendulum, looking for a chance to kill the big spider.

The ghost spider attacked Tang Shi and Jiang Huai several times and failed. He turned around and rushed to Yan Xu. Tang Shi and Jiang Huai immediately moved, launching an attack on the ghost spider. The big spider had to stop to deal with them. Tang Shi adjusted his angle and slammed the metal stick against the head of the ghost spider. The ghost spider remembered the strength of Tang Shi. When he saw the incoming metal stick, it raised the two front spider legs that had been protecting its eyes two inches higher to defend the attack.

It was the perfect chance Yan Xu had been waiting for. Bang! He shot into the spider's eye by going past its leg.

The ghost spider screamed and went wild. The three of them dodged far away. A few seconds later, half of the big spider's body collapsed on the sofa and didn't move.

The three of them sighed in relief and smiled at each other. It never occurred to them that they could work perfectly together despite the first time, especially Tang Shi and Yan Xu. They were like gold partners. Their teamwork was perfect. It was unbelievable for Jiang Huai. But he didn't know that Tang Shi and Yan Xu had experienced a lot to develop such perfect teamwork.

Tang Shi walked over and put his hand on the body of the ghost spider. A fiery-red element energy crystal emerged out of the body of the ghost spider. Tang Shi quickly grabbed it and held it in his hand.

Yan Xu and Jiang Huai were speechless because it was completely beyond their understanding.
