Dewi shook his head. "Your Majesty, Thranduil, you are welcome. We are here at Legolas' invitation, ready to do our part. So when Your Majesty sets out, please allow us to follow you!"

Elrohir, Elladan, and Arwen also nodded and asked to do their part.

Thranduil did not refuse this. He had originally planned to catch all the giant spiders in the Mirkwood this time. Naturally, he was happy to get the help of Dui and others.

Soon, with the sound of a horn, all the elven warriors of the Woodland Kingdom gathered together.

Legolas separated from Due and the others, joined the army, and became a vanguard leader.

The elven army quickly shuttled through the dark forest, forming a horizontal column and moving southward.

And Dewi, Arwen, Elrohir, and Elladan went with Thranduil.

Dui rode a large elk, one of the several mounts Thranduil kept in his stable, and the gentlest of them all.

It was Dui's first time riding an elk, and he was a little curious looking at the huge antlers on the elk's head.

Seeing that Dui was interested, Thranduil said directly and generously: "If you like it, this elk is for you!"

Dui waved his hands repeatedly, saying that there were already enough animals at home.

If we keep adding more, we can open a zoo.

Seeing Dui's refusal, Thranduil did not insist, and his attention began to focus entirely on the upcoming war.

At this moment, Dui's attention was focused on the white gem brooch on his chest.

The brooch began to work in the forest. Dui felt that he and the surrounding environment had become very close. Even the surrounding trees seemed to come alive, and had a close connection with him.

He seemed to be able to sense the nearby situation through the surrounding trees, such as the breathing of trees, the crawling of insects, the panicked fleeing animals... and the giant spider hidden in the tree a hundred meters high!

Dui was startled and instantly looked towards the giant spider in the distant tree that was about to launch a sneak attack.

However, before he could open his mouth to remind them, the elves had already discovered it. In an instant, several arrows hit the head of the giant spider on the tree. When it fell down, an elf warrior quickly killed it with a single blow.

The entire process, from reaction to completion, took only a few seconds, and the movements were quick and decisive.

Dui swallowed the reminder that had yet to come out of his throat.

In Mirkwood, the elves displayed a fighting power much higher than that in Lonely Mountain.

However, he looked at the corpses of the giant spiders that were thrown there by the elves, and said to Thranduil beside him: "Your Majesty, can you leave these corpses of giant spiders to me?"

Thranduil was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't understand what Dui wanted these spiders to do. After all, these dark creatures would pollute the environment when they died.

But since Dui wanted it, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

After all, he had originally planned to pile up all the giant spider corpses together and burn them after the battle was over.

Otherwise, if we leave it where it is, not only will no grass grow around it, but it will also pollute the surrounding land and water sources.

Now that Dui needs it, he is happy to give it to him.

With Thranduil's consent, Dui immediately used the Flying Spell to bring the giant spider's body over.

Then he got off the elk and used the glass bottle that appeared to collect the giant spider's venom, and then put the giant spider's body into a space bag.

Seeing Dui's behavior, Elrohir asked curiously, "Dui'er, what do you want the giant spider to do?"

Dui didn't hide anything. He shook the bottle of green venom in his hand and explained with a smile, "Giant spider venom is very useful. Not only can it be used to make a powerful antidote, it can also be used to enhance magical items."

Dui had long discovered that the giant spider was not only similar to the eight-eyed giant spider in the magical world, but its venom could completely replace the eight-eyed giant spider, and was even more effective.

The venom of the giant eight-eyed spider is very expensive in the wizarding market and is a rare resource coveted by many wizards.

There was no reason for Dui to let go of a giant spider whose venom was stronger than that of the eight-eyed giant spider.

In his eyes, these giant spiders are a rare source of potion materials.

He planned to catch a few more live giant spiders during this trip to the Dark Forest, and then set up a special breeding space in the tower to raise these giant spiders.

Otherwise, once all the giant spiders in the Mirkwood are eliminated, they will become a rare species.

In addition to using the giant spider's venom, Dui also did not intend to let go of the giant spider's corpse.

He planned to collect the nerves of the giant spider and use them as the core material for his wand.

Then the giant spider's corpse was used as food for the basilisk Herpo.

The eight-eyed giant spider is the favorite food of the basilisk, and the giant spider is the most delicious of delicacies and the most tonic of all.

The two giant spiders that Dui originally kept in the tower were killed by the basilisk Herpo.

The giant spider is a dark creature that exudes a dark aura and its flesh and blood are poisonous. If eaten by other animals, even a giant eagle will be poisoned.

But for the basilisk, it is a great tonic.

After eating the two giant spiders, the basilisk Herpo underwent a molting process, becoming larger and possessing increased magical power.

So Dui came this time not only to accept Legolas' invitation but also to destroy the giant spider in Mirkwood.

It is also a journey to collect pet food reserves.

Chapter 149 Spider Food Reserve

Mirkwood,

As the elven army continued to advance towards the southern forest, they encountered more and more giant spiders.

The elf warriors were agile and powerful. They jumped lightly among the trees as if they were walking on flat ground, and soon destroyed several giant spider nests.

Especially Legolas, the vanguard leader. Unlike other wood elves who use bows and arrows for long-range attacks, he has a full talent for archery and can cast magic very accurately with his wand.

He was like a nimble stag, darting through the dense woods, leaving only a shadow.

But the wand in his hand kept casting spells, and basically a giant spider would fall from the tree after each spell.

Legolas did not use any powerful magic, but instead chose spells such as the Leg Locking Curse and the Tarantella Dance, which were simple and quick to cast and effective against giant spiders.

Sure enough, under the impact of the spell, the giant spider with eight legs was either locked up or dancing uncontrollably, and soon fell from the tall trees.

Then he was quickly killed by the elf warrior who had been waiting below.

Thranduil in the back looked at Legolas' outstanding performance, and the smile in his eyes could not be hidden, with a look of pride on his face.

Of course, he also did not forget to thank Dui: "Dui, Legolas has learned a lot from you, and I am deeply grateful for that!"

Dui smiled and waved his hand: "Legolas is also my friend, and he has helped me a lot during this period. This is nothing."

Then he saw the elf warriors kill a few more giant spiders. His eyes suddenly lit up and he ran to the giant spider's corpse without stopping. He waved his magic wand to turn a few leaves into glass bottles and began to collect the giant spider's venom.

The giant spider's venom must be collected as soon as possible, otherwise it will deteriorate after the spider dies and will be useless.

After collecting the venom, Dui did not forget to put the giant spider's body into the space bag.

By now, there are hundreds of giant spider corpses in his space bag, enough for the basilisk to eat for a long time.

Moreover, he did not contribute at all during the whole process, and just won by picking up the corpses behind the elf warriors.

He said it felt great and he hoped it would be more intense.

When Thranduil saw Dui's behavior, he immediately turned around and ordered his adjutant to arrange for several elves to deliver the giant spider to Dui.

The elven army attacked swiftly, advancing southwards to the old forest road.

Then here they finally encountered a wave of attacks from giant spiders.

Although the giant spider cannot speak, it is intelligent and very cunning and evil.

After receiving the news of the elves' attack, they quickly organized thousands of giant spiders near the old road in the dense forest and ambushed them there.

The elven army's attack stopped here.

Thranduil looked ahead and couldn't help but frown.

I saw that the woods ahead were blocked by huge spider webs. From the ground to the sky, everything was covered with spider webs, like a huge net, dividing the dark forest into two halves from east to west.

The elf warrior used his sharp sword to chop the spider silk, but the spider silk was not only very tough, but also very sticky. The sword not only failed to cut it, but instead stuck to the sword.

Even if the spider webs were cut through, it would take an unknown amount of time to cut through all the layers.

Just as Thranduil frowned, Elrohir and Elladan volunteered.

"Your Majesty Thranduil, the situation on the battlefield has changed suddenly. These giant spiders obviously want to slow down our offensive. We cannot give them a chance to breathe. Let us and Legolas lead the way!" said Elrohir.

"We have just learned a lot of magic from Duir, and we can test it here." Elladan also said.

Arwen also stepped forward and said, "Add me in!"

At this moment, Arwen's gentle temperament changed, and she exuded fearlessness and courage, like a combination of a goddess of beauty and a Valkyrie.

Thranduil did not hesitate to be polite with them and nodded in agreement to their request to fight.

"Then I'll trouble you all!"

"Do you need my help?" Dui asked Arwen when he saw that Arwen and others were about to take action.

Arwen smiled and shook her head slightly, then said in a teasing tone, "How can you, a professor, do this yourself? Let us students do it for you first."

"After all, we have to let people see the results of us students learning magic from you!"

Dui smiled helplessly when he heard that. He didn't expect that she still remembered that he jokingly asked them to call him professor during class.

He didn't force it immediately, but instead joked: "Okay, I, as a teacher, won't steal your limelight. I can just pick up the corpse in the back."

"Don't worry, since you like weird things like giant spiders, I will definitely help you hunt more giant spiders as a student's tribute to his teacher." Arwen replied with a smile.

Elrohir, who was standing by, saw the strange atmosphere between the two and felt something was wrong. He immediately interrupted, "Arwen, let's go!"

Dui and Arwen themselves didn't notice it. They exchanged glances in tacit understanding and didn't say anything to ask them to be careful.

Then Dewi watched as Arwen, Elrohir, and Elladan rode to the front lines to join Legolas.

Thranduil looked at Dui and smiled meaningfully.

But nothing was said.

The four Elrohir gathered together and discussed casting magic together, attacking one place and trying to tear open a hole.

Allow the elven army to continue advancing and not give the giant spider much time to react.

The four raised their wands, pointed them at the spider web in front of them, and said in unison: "Shatter into pieces!"

Four sharp white rays converged together, bursting out with several times the power, instantly blowing up the spider web in front of them, and even destroying more than ten meters forward.

After breaking a big hole in the spider web fence, Arwen and the others did not stop, but stepped over the spider web and continued forward to work together to open a passage.
