My mom is waiting for treatment, and you're summoning me to be a hero?

Chapter 18 Yin Xue notices something is wrong

Lin Mo interrupted her reverie, pointing out the problem directly: "It's too dark here, it hinders our movement."

Upon hearing this, Yin Xue flew to Lin Mo's side.

He patted his almost non-existent chest triumphantly.

He raised his head and said, "Hmph, foolish humans! You can't even handle this little matter. Leave it to this Demon King!"

After saying that, she stretched out one hand and shouted, "Illumination!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a ball of energy slowly gathered and took shape in her palm.

However, this so-called illumination spell turned out to be a black ball of energy.

It emitted a faint, dark light, barely illuminating an area of less than two meters around Lin Mo.

Moreover, under the shadow of this dark energy, everything around seemed even more sinister and eerie.

Lin Mo stared at the ball of light, speechless: "...This is your lighting magic? Why is it black?"

Yin Xue stood with his hands on his hips, a haughty expression on his face: "Hmph! How could something as vulgar as light be worthy of my style? Darkness is much more in line with my style! Hehehe..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Mo raised his hand expressionlessly.

He punched her in the head.

"Ouch!"

Yin Xue cried out in pain, her little wings tilted, and she almost fell from the sky.

"Stop fooling around, I don't have time to play with you."

Lin Mo spoke in a serious tone.

Yin Xue pouted and muttered under his breath, "Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore... Barbarian, you have absolutely no sense of humor..."

She snapped her fingers in annoyance.

The ball of black energy floating in her palm suddenly changed color!

The deep black receded like the tide, replaced by pure white light!

hum-

The sphere of light expanded instantly, its soft yet bright white light resembling a miniature sun.

It suddenly dispelled the dense darkness within a radius of thirty meters!

The surrounding environment was clearly displayed before Lin Mo's eyes.

This appears to be a larger mine hub, with the surrounding rock walls riddled with countless pits and passages of varying sizes.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of dust and broken ore.

And at the very moment the light shone—

Cluck cluck cluck...

A chilling crawling sound came from all directions!

All that could be seen was the edge of the light-shrouded area, and in the darkness further away.

Countless small eyes, shimmering with a ghostly green light, suddenly lit up!

Those were spiders that were much larger than the spiders on the upper level.

Some are even as big as calves!

The number was so great that it resembled a tidal wave.

These were all Dark Ink Spiders.

They had been lurking in the darkness, but were startled by the sudden appearance of light and fled in panic into the deeper darkness.

Lin Mo's eyes narrowed. The size and number of these spiders indeed far exceeded those on the upper level.

Moreover, he could sense that there were several more powerful auras mixed in, which should be the level 15 elite spiders that Fano mentioned.

"If I kill them all, how much will my attributes increase?"

Lin Mo couldn't help but think this to himself.

call out!

A sharp, piercing sound came from above without warning!

A dark shadow, like a javelin, pierced straight towards the blood-red orb that was suspended in mid-air and maintaining its light!

Yin Xue simply rolled her eyes with utter disdain and casually flapped her little wings.

His figure shifted half a foot to the side like a ghost.

The dark figure brushed past her clothes and slammed into the floor.

That was a spider leg as thick as a fist!

Almost at the same instant the sound of something cutting through the air rang out, Lin Mo's wrist, which was gripping the sword, had already turned!

He didn't even look up; the black sword was already drawn!

Click!

A crisp sound!

The other spider leg, which was piercing his neck, was precisely severed at the root, half a foot away from his skin!

The broken leg lay in the dust, still twitching reflexively.

"Not bad!"

Yin Xue clapped her little paws and gave Lin Mo a thumbs up.

Lin Mo ignored her praise and slowly raised his head, his gaze turning cold as he looked up at the top of the mine.

A huge, dark ink spider, about five or six meters long, was hanging upside down above their heads.

Its entire body was covered in a dark, almost black carapace, and its eight compound eyes gleamed with a cruel and cunning eerie green light.

As its mouthparts opened and closed, fangs dripping with viscous venom were revealed.

This is an elite-level Dark Ink Spider.

In fact, with Lin Mo and Yin Xue's perception far exceeding that of ordinary people, they had already noticed when this elite spider quietly approached using the darkness and the environment.

Lin Mo deliberately refrained from launching an attack immediately in order to test the attack methods and strength of this elite-level monster.

Yin Xue flew to Lin Mo's shoulder and looked at the enormous creature above his head.

She nudged Lin Mo's cheek with her little arm, her tone slightly seductive: "How about it? This guy looks much tougher than those lowlifes, right? Want me to lend you my power right now?"

"Need not."

Lin Mo calmly interrupted her sales pitch, his tone completely unwavering.

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly exerted force with his feet!

Bang!

The thick layer of dust on the ground was instantly trampled into a shallow pit.

Lin Mo's figure shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, advancing instead of retreating.

They charged headlong toward the elite spider hanging from the cave ceiling!

It moved so fast that it left a faint afterimage behind it.

"Hey! You brute!"

Yin Xue was so angry that he stomped his feet in mid-air, but then he saw Lin Mo rush out.

Seeing that the elite spider reacted extremely quickly, one of its spider legs accurately stabbed at Lin Mo, who had nowhere to gain leverage in mid-air.

"idiot!"

Yin Xue cursed under his breath and no longer hesitated.

He immediately wanted to forcefully infuse his power into Lin Mo.

However, just as those sharp feet were about to touch Lin Mo's chest—

Lin Mo's figure suddenly blurred in mid-air.

Like a reflection in water being scattered by a pebble!

The next moment, his figure split in two.

It turned into two identical Lin Mos!

The spider leg passed right through the gap between the two clones!

Mirror image!

Yin Xue abruptly stopped in his action of transferring magic power.

A hint of surprise flashed in his blood-red eyes: "Huh? This guy actually thought of using a mirror image to avoid it."

Using the mirror image will cause a one-body displacement. Although this distance is very short, it can help you dodge many attacks at crucial moments.

But those who dare to use this skill must have extremely high mental attributes.

Did Lin Mo put all his free attribute points into his spirit?

A flood of information rushed through Yin Xue's mind.

At the same time, Lin Mo had already arrived at the side and above the elite spider!

The black sword in his hand gleamed with a deadly dark light.

Seize the momentary opening left by the elite spider when its attack misses.

It pierced its compound eye with unparalleled precision!

puff!

A thick, dark green liquid gushed out from the shattered eyeball with a sharp, painful scream!

The elite spider suffered a severe blow.

Its massive body began to convulse violently.

The remaining spider legs frantically clawed at the rocks on the cave ceiling, sending pebbles tumbling down.
