Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!-Chapter 506 - 330: Spider Armor Puppet
Chapter 506: Chapter 330: Spider Armor Puppet
“Hall Master, we can start the demonstration now,”
Zhu Zhangqi raised his hand, ran to Su Jie’s side and shouted loudly.
“Go and show me.”
Su Jie nodded and watched as Zhu Zhangqi deftly crawled into the top of the Spider Armor Puppet, slid through the hatch, and lay among a mass of writhing meat tumors.
The specially cultivated meat tumors, resembling sponges, enveloped Zhu Zhangqi in an instant.
Click-clack, click-clack!
The twelve-meter-tall Spider Armor Puppet slowly came to life, as its eight long legs reached forward. The internal meat tumors replaced the usual power output, allowing it to move with none of the rigidity and stiffness of mechanical beings, like a truly living spider coming to life.
Exiting the warehouse door, the long legs of the Spider Armor Puppet bent slightly, and the massive body leaped high like a cannonball, crashing into the middle of the combat arena and precisely striking several targets with its metallic long legs.
The targets, solidly built from sturdy iron, were penetrated by the spider’s sudden descent from the sky. The sharp hooks on the ends of the metal legs pierced straight through, and the heat from the high-speed impact caused a dazzling spark as metal collided with metal, sending steel fragments jetting out in all directions, the impact noise echoing over several hundred meters.
Boom, boom, boom!
Following were a series of loud booms as the head of the Spider Armor Puppet emitted massive sound waves, spewing out clumps of white spider silk.
These clumps of white spider silk were initially the size of volleyballs, similar to rubber balls, but upon contact with air, the spider silk expanded rapidly, forming a massive sticky web capable of covering thousands of square meters with high adhesive and tensile strength.
Birds originally flying overhead were trapped, flapping continuously as their wings were stuck and they fell to the ground.
This was an inherent ability of the Spider Armor Puppet, created by the internal meat tumors.
During the cultivation of the meat tumors, a large amount of genetic material from the Steel Bone Spider was collected, and its capabilities were preserved as much as possible, allowing the meat tumors to secrete and eject the substance through powerful muscular contractions.
This disposable spider silk would retain its stickiness for about an hour, and a single clump could effortlessly suspend tens of tons of steel.
Within the territory of the Steel Bone Spider, birds are rare, as its spider silk is the nightmare of many avian species.
After demonstrating its attacking capabilities, the Spider Armor Puppet turned its body once more and began to run at high speed, creating a significant amount of noise as its huge body moved.
However, in the next moment, the Spider Armor Puppet underwent a transformation.
Its eight long legs started to retract, section by section, like fishing rods, while the upper metal parts were continuously folded by the meat tumors. In an instant, the Spider Armor Puppet shrank to just 4.5 meters tall, with its entire body compacted.
At this height, the Spider Armor Puppet moved even more flexibly, with much reduced noise upon landing.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
With a light leap, the Spider Armor Puppet entered a forest. Its eight limbs easily pierced into the tree trunks, propelling it through the trees with ease. Despite its previously large size, much of its body used hollow bones, like those of birds, which made it much lighter than it appeared.
As the Spider Armor Puppet moved through the trees, its specially designed limbs provided it with ample kinetic energy and the ability to cling.
Not only could it move rapidly through the forest, but it could also leap dozens of meters across rivers with ease, and when faced with cliffs, its sharp limb tips could pierce into the rock as easily as a knife cuts through tofu, firmly anchoring itself and climbing swiftly, just like a real spider.
In the end, Zhu Zhangqi, operating the Spider Armor Puppet, crashed through several large trees and finally, with a loud bang, collided at high speed with a mountain.
When the dust settled, one could see that the Spider Armor Puppet was damaged in several places, metal twisted, and even two of its long legs were broken.
But these damages did not affect the control of the Spider Armor Puppet. The integrity of the core allowed the Spider Armor Puppet to demonstrate remarkable extreme performance. Even with only three legs left, it could still maintain mobility.
More importantly, wherever the Spider Armor Puppet was damaged, a continuous supply of blood and mycelium oozed out, autonomously hardening to repair the damaged parts.
Even the broken legs saw new meat tumors writhing, gradually solidifying into tough hollow shells and growing new limb-like extensions, replacing the metallic legs. Though there was an impact on speed and defensive capabilities, it was still better than having no legs at all.
After the entire demonstration, half an hour had passed.

The Spider Armor Puppet returned to Su Jie, and with the opening of the hatch on top, Zhu Zhangqi walked out.
“Boss, the diesel inside is almost used up. I didn’t store much in it. If you need more demonstrations, I’ll fill it up,”
Zhu Zhangqi looked eager to continue. To him, the Spider Armor Puppet designed according to Su Jie’s plans, although odd for requiring a Cultivator to pilot and with its seemingly inadequate combat abilities compared to humanoid Combat Puppets, was still thrilling to operate. The special sensory blood vessels in the meat tumors made Zhu Zhangqi feel as if he had truly transformed into a real spider puppet, an addictively novel experience.
In fact, the current Spider Armor Puppet was only a basic unit. It had reserved spaces for armor installation and weapon loading systems, which would employ Blue Star’s weaponry. Once equipped, the war machine would have a much richer arsenal at its disposal.
