Yang Xiangdi collapsed onto the ground as if his spine had been ripped out.

He felt his worldview crumble. He had actually killed his best friend with his own hands!

Qiao Yu had saved him several times, but he didn't have the ability to save Qiao Yu!

"Why! Why! Why is this happening!" Yang Xiangdi clutched his head and cried bitterly.

"Qiao Yu... Brother Yu... I will create another world where you exist!"

"It's okay, Xiangdi. Don't be sad. Here, wipe your tears."

A tissue was offered to the weeping Yang Xiangdi.

"Th... thank you."

Yang Xiangdi sobbed and blew his nose into the tissue.

"Huh?"

Yang Xiangdi suddenly realized something was wrong. Why was this voice so familiar?

He looked up abruptly, and a familiar handsome face came into view.

"Brother Yu!"

Yang Xiangdi jumped up excitedly and hugged Qiao Yu.

"Brother Yu, it's so good you're not dead, waaaah!"

"Hey, hey, get away from me. You're getting snot on me."

Qiao Yu made a disgusted expression, but he felt a warmth in his heart.

When you die, someone will cry for you. This feeling... wasn't bad.

After crying for a while, Yang Xiangdi scratched his head in confusion.

"Brother Yu, I have 300 points of mental power. Why couldn't I blow you up? You didn't really cheat, did you?"

"What? Are you sad that I didn't die? Who says you can't be resurrected after death?" Qiao Yu said unhappily.

"Oh, I get it. You have a resurrection skill!"

Yang Xiangdi nodded in understanding. It seemed he didn't have to avoid Brother Yu when using skills next time, since he would just resurrect anyway.

Hehe, Yang Xiangdi, you're such a genius.

Qiao Yu ignored the giggling Yang Xiangdi and checked his attribute panel.

"Counting the extra health given by the skills, I now have nearly 1,500 health points. I shouldn't have to worry about being instantly killed by a boss anymore."

Qiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, Xiangdi, what did you get when you killed that Xun Dong?" Qiao Yu asked.

"Huh?" Yang Xiangdi was stunned.

"Um, I didn't get a notification that I killed her. It seems like... she's still alive?"

Qiao Yu: ?????

Bro, don't you know it's a taboo not to finish off the bad guys? What have you been watching all those dramas for?

Sure enough, Xun Dong's cold voice rang out again.

"You... hurt me so much!"

Yang Xiangdi's Earth Explosion Technique had blasted a terrifying pit in the ground, and a bloody little hand grabbed the edge of the pit.

Xun Dong crawled out of the pit, her whole body tattered and torn. An eyeball had fallen out, hanging from a bit of flesh on the side of her cheek.

She looked like a rag doll left over from a battlefield.

"Congratulations, you will now witness my true beauty."

Xun Dong laughed, and the corners of her mouth slowly began to crack, her cheeks splitting open.

Finally, the corners of her mouth split all the way to her ears, looking incredibly grotesque.

Her entire spine seemed to bulge out as if it would pierce through her body, eventually forming eight bulges on her back.

*Clang!*

A long leg, like a jet-black blade, pierced out from Xun Dong's back.

The second, the third... finally, eight spider legs propped Xun Dong up.

In the blink of an eye, the eight spider legs grew to nearly three meters long.

Xun Dong's body had also turned into a writhing white worm.

This worm looked like a maggot magnified dozens of times, except this maggot had a human face!

Xun Dong had now completely transformed into a super-sized spider with a human face.

"Damn it, Yang Xiangdi, hurry up, hit her with another Earth Explosion Technique! She's almost dead!" Qiao Yu urged.

"I can't, Brother Yu. My spirit stat has dropped to 48. The spirit stat from burning fat doesn't seem to be permanent," Yang Xiangdi said awkwardly.

"So fast? Are you a premature ejaculator?" Qiao Yu cursed.

"Stop talking. Xun Dong's true form is actually a spider. I actually fantasized about a spider spirit before. It's too disgusting, blegh!" Yang Xiangdi, the person in question, was now full of regret.

Who would have thought that a stunning beauty would actually be a spider in disguise?

"She seems to be getting weird. Take a look at her attribute panel," Qiao Yu said.

Yang Xiangdi looked over and made a surprised noise.

Because Xun Dong no longer had a category.

【?????????】

【Level: lv15】

【Health Points: 2000/2000】

【Strength: 150】

【Defense: 100】

【Agility: 120】

【Skills: Venomous Sting, Predatory Frenzy】

"What do all the question marks mean? What the hell is this thing?" Yang Xiangdi asked in terror.

"I don't know, but her stats are scary. All three stats are over 100. Be careful."

Qiao Yu's expression was very solemn. The giant spider Xun Dong had turned into was the most terrifying monster they had ever seen.

"Got it!" Yang Xiangdi hid directly behind Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu: "..."

【Warning! Warning! Warning!】

【An unknown error has occurred in the Myriad Poison Cave dungeon. The NPC Xun Dong has fused with the boss, the Queen Insect. The creature's combat power has exceeded the beginner difficulty. Please leave the dungeon immediately!】

【Warning! Please leave the dungeon immediately!】

The system notification sounded, and a gate of light appeared behind Qiao Yu and the others.

"System, what about our exclusive dungeon?" Qiao Yu asked, raising his head.

"Damn it, Brother Yu, are you missing a screw? Run while you can! We're lucky enough to escape such a terrifying monster. You're still worried about the quest!" Yang Xiangdi said.

"Yeah, Qiao Yu, let's go! The system said we can't handle this monster," Fang Yuan chimed in, trying to persuade him.

Seeing that the system didn't respond, Qiao Yu continued to stare at the sky.

【After calculation, the five players have not defeated the Myriad Poison Cave boss, the Queen Insect. Please leave and reopen the exclusive dungeon.】

"What?!"

Qiao Yu was furious. I skipped class to grind this dungeon, and after spending so much time, you're telling me to start over?

"I'm going to kill Xun Dong! Not even Jesus can stop me! I said it!"

Qiao Yu turned his head angrily to look at Xun Dong, who had turned into a human-faced spider. He exerted force with his feet and rushed over, muttering.

"Damn it, I don't care what you fused with. You're going to die today!"
