Quit the team, then picked up a beautiful girl with problems

Li Ang explained that there are often two-way choices among monsters' servants. Some monsters are willing to live around the strong because they can also benefit from it.

Occasionally, overly powerful and intelligent monsters will forcibly suppress other groups, but in that case, absolute domination is also produced, which is different from being driven over just now.

"As for why it raises spiders? We'll know once we find that monster in the depths."

As you go further in, you'll see things not related to monsters, but human creations.

There were shelves and wooden tables built in a depression in the rock wall, on which were placed many containers and instruments, but they were all covered with cobwebs, making it difficult to see what the tools were.

Li Ang used the system panel to check and found that they were all related to alchemy and biological cultivation.

"The spiders here were indeed brought in by humans."

Li Ang pointed to the ground. The corpse there should be the original owner of this place.

His skull was completely pierced and his entire skeleton was incomplete, showing signs of being bitten.

"He raised spiders, but didn't take good care of them, so they attacked and ate them?" Zoe looked at the ugly skeleton, a little scared and didn't dare to get close.

Except for Alulu, none of them got close. Zoe and Andasu were a little scared. Xiao Niu stood beside Leon indifferently, watching him examine the body.

"It doesn't look like a spider's hand."

After checking, Leon came to the workbench, picked up the cobwebs and looked for text or something like that.

Sure enough, this person's experimental records were here. A thick stack.

Li Ang picked up a book at random and turned a page.

"It's June 288th, Guild Calendar Year 6. It's rainy. The cave is also getting damp, which is affecting the spider eggs' absorption of the strengthening fluid. Experiments are temporarily suspended."

This shows that he is indeed related to spiders, but it has nothing to do with the situation in the cave or the street outside.

Li Ang pulled out the book at the bottom, and it turned out to be the earliest experimental record.

"On January 275th, 1th Guild Calendar, the experiment began. We were searching for a remote location, but unexpectedly, we found an underground cavern just outside the Holy City. Not bad."

"It's so early. This person came here more than 30 years ago." Alulu raised her head to look over, making Li Ang feel warm.

Li Ang flipped through a few more pages. Based on this man's experimental records, he could tell that he was a specialized researcher of monsters, and was particularly good at analyzing alien insect monsters.

"Come and help take a look."

Everyone brushed off the cobwebs and dust and flipped through the book together.

Li Ang saw that the owner of the experimental table occasionally wrote words such as "Damn Thousand Towers City" and "The Magic Tower looks down on my research" to vent his emotions. It seems that he was originally a scholar from Thousand Towers City.

"Thirty years ago, the Flower City wasn't even built. How did they build such a prosperous city?"

Dorothy, who came from a lord family, could hardly imagine the speed of the city's development.

"The magical technology of the island nation of Makaina can create some engineering equipment, which has accelerated the development here. The clay figurines created by alchemy and magic can also move and compact soil and stone, and the bricks and stones of buildings can be shaped into the desired shape using earth elements on site."

Li Ang listed many technologies to speed up city construction.

He added: "That street outside couldn't have been abandoned for that long. His accident must have happened within the last ten years."

Li Ang turned to the back of the notebook as he spoke. This person only recorded some experimental data that he didn't quite understand, so he could only look forward.

The experimental records were very thick, but after everyone looked through them, they were able to find the time when he might have had the accident.

"On May 293, 5, a strange magical fluctuation appeared in the Holy City. A group of spider eggs cultured in a simulated natural environment hatched abnormally, escaped from the experimental cave, and devoured a person living nearby. Why did such a fluctuation occur? It's strange."

"It was eight years ago." Dorothy looked nostalgic.

Eight years ago was when she and Li Ang first met.

Leon smiled at her and continued to flip through the records in the half-elf's blushing and hazy eyes.

It's hard to empathize with the experimenter. After his baby spider escaped and killed someone, he felt nothing and continued with his research.

"On June 293rd, 6 AD, I discovered that the magical fluctuations of that day disturbed the spirits within the test subjects, causing them to become stronger and more ferocious. Interesting! Could this help me obtain the Soul-Eating Spider of my dreams? That way, I could finally have the blueprint for establishing my ideal nation."

"He's very ambitious," said Dorothy.

Alulu frowned. "He wants to build a country after killing innocent people? No wonder he failed. He must have been harmed by his own actions."

"That's why the people around here moved away." Li Ang felt that the special existence in the cave might be discovered soon.

"Here it is, isn't it?" Zoe held up a piece of paper.

Li Ang and others came over and saw this paragraph:

"On February 294, 2, I successfully extracted a special substance rich in spirit energy and refined it into a strengthening fluid. I used it to cultivate the spirit-eating spiders, but it resulted in their rampant proliferation. Damn it, there are no ordinary people around to provide blood food."

Alulu clenched her fists.

"On March 294, 3, I could no longer control the reproduction of the Soul Devouring Spiders."

"You deserve it." Xiao Niu said angrily, and her angry tone made her voice less gentle.

This still doesn't explain the situation inside the cave.

Turn the page again and the truth will appear before your eyes.

"On March 294, 3, I found a monster called the Patterned Spider Wasp. It's the nemesis of spiders and should be able to prevent the spider plague in the cave."

"On March 294, 3, the Patterned Spider Wasp was no match for so many spiders. I injected it with a strengthening fluid, and it excitedly wiped out several swarms, but died of exhaustion. What a pity.

"March 294, 3. Surprise! The spider wasp has formed numerous eggs. I immediately began cultivating them. I discovered that the spider wasp eggs, after absorbing the strengthening fluid, developed very slowly, but grew exceptionally strong. Great! Once they hatch, the spiders in the cave will surely be wiped out. Perhaps my research can even shift direction."

The key information in the research record stops here. The rest are data records and content about leaving the cave to purchase supplies for alchemical potion making.

"It seems that the true form of the thing in the cave has appeared." Li Ang said.

"It's the mutated spider bee he cultivated." Andasu continued.

Li Ang nodded. "That explains why the spiders were driven away. They're their natural enemies. As for the low number of adult spiders in the cave, that's simple: they've all been eaten by them."

Alulu said, "It's like growing vegetables in a garden. You grow them while you eat them, right?"

"That's a very fitting metaphor."

Xiao Niu took another look at the remains: "He was killed by the mutated spider wasp."

"The data from the last two months doesn't contain any concrete information, which suggests he's been cultivating this special patterned spider wasp for a long time. It's likely that the spider wasp killed him first after it matured."

Li Ang thought that it was no wonder that this place was considered a high-risk area. The mutated monsters created by the crazy alchemist from Qianta City were even highly intelligent and could grow food for themselves.

What would it be like to grow up eating soul-eating spiders for six or seven years?

He closed the experimental record and the system prompt suddenly popped up.

[Hint: Discovered the breeding route for the summoned beast [White Flower Spider Bee]. This is a mutated monster. Obtain its egg sac or larvae and use the breeding farm to fully tame it.]

This system is like saying, don't raise this thing if there is no breeding ground provided by the system.

It didn't give this kind of hint when it was the Fairy Dragon. Leon thought that this "White Flower Spider Bee" transformed from the Patterned Spider Bee must be a monster with a particularly vicious temperament.

"Let's go and take a look at the depths."

This time, Leon used the pure magic shield to protect the four people.

The white spider wasp in the cave must be a monster of outstanding level, able to suppress all the soul-eating spiders.

Walking on the road, Zoe lowered her head and looked a little depressed.

"What's wrong?" Li Ang asked softly.

"Eight years ago was when my parents left home."

That was indeed the case. Eight years ago, her father wrote in his notes that due to news from "Cha Ain", they had to leave the island to fight against the organization that knew about Star Soul.

Wait a minute, the strange thing about the Cha Ain family that Aifei talked about before was also eight years ago. The playboy of the Cha Ain family died inexplicably.

Li Ang frowned. The earliest problem of the disaster in this cave was eight years ago. Special magical fluctuations that disturbed the spirituality appeared in the Holy City and could even be transmitted to the underground caves on the edge of the city.

Li Ang always felt that these clues seemed to be gradually weaving into a complete idea in his mind.

At this moment, the cave also came to an end, and an astonishing scene appeared in the tangled spider web in front.

202. White-flowered spider wasp

The Soul-Eating Spider's silk web with a hint of crystal light is stacked layer upon layer. The gray web appears to blend in with the rocks in the dim light, and the crystal light produced by the extremely thick stacking of spider webs forms a magnificent scene in the night sky.

These nets could also be considered a kind of material. After being stacked, they were both soft and tough at the same time. However, this magnificent sight did not bring a feeling of admiration for its beauty, but instead aroused an instinctive disgust in the blood.

Because the spider webs were covered with spider heads that were dry and hardened like rocks. They were cut off neatly and hung all over the spider webs like trophies. The crystal eyes on the spider heads were so densely packed that they were enough to make one's senses surge.

Leon caught the unsteady Andasu and helped her retreat against the wall. Zoe and Dorothy prepared for battle with expressionless faces. They had stopped thinking.

Even Alulu had goose bumps on her milky skin. She glanced at her companions' condition and knew she had to protect their safety on her own, so she prepared a defense in front.

Their current state is not suitable for high-pressure combat. Leon also knows that this kind of deterrence is exactly the effect that the monster in front wants to achieve. Its intelligence is far beyond that of ordinary creatures.

The spider web began to vibrate layer by layer, and the spider head on it began to shake like waves. Even from a distance of more than ten meters, it felt like fine hairs and spikes were plowing across the skin.

Andasu immediately retched and squatted down against the wall, trembling.

The overlapping spider webs were pushed aside by two insect claws, and a large alien insect monster with a body length of four or five meters emerged from its upper body.

This is its nest. The entire place is made up of the webs of countless soul-eating spiders that died in the cave. It has long been familiar with how to leave the nest and attack.

As its translucent membranous wings were pulled out of the spider web, they began to vibrate at high speed, forming a phantom. The wind it created caused the spider's head on the surface of the nest to flip over again, and its entire body flew over the cave at high speed.

Everyone could only try to catch a glimpse of its silhouette, and saw that its body structure was similar to that of a wasp, but it was black and white overall, which might be why it got its name.

When it moves at high speed, only the faint light on the sharp tail needle can be seen at all times. I don’t know whether it is because the concentration of toxin on it is too high, or because it always keeps the tail needle pointing in the direction of everyone.

【White Spider Wasp】

Now that the true form of this thing has been revealed, it truly deserves to be labeled a "high-risk area" by the system.

The white flower spider wasp was as fast as a phantom, and was still waiting for an opportunity to find the flaws of the crowd. It rubbed its claws and mandibles, making a sharp and piercing sound. Amidst this sound, large soul-eating spiders began to crawl out from the corners around it.

These soul-eating spiders are all fully grown, probably the ones that were spotted by the white spider wasp and are specifically guarding it.

Li Ang lit a ball of fire to completely illuminate the cave, allowing him to see the dense spider eggs behind the spiders. These were not only the White Flower Spider Wasp's food reserves, but could also become its slaves.

Along with the soul-eating spiders, there were also densely packed small spiders, which swarmed towards the crowd like a carpet.

Zoe, her face filled with horror, entered the posture of a celestial being. While floating with streamers on her body, she swept out with the Sword of Breath of Wind, exerting all her strength.

The star soul light from the Lei Xiao Quetzalcoatl induced lightning to roar all around, blasting the small spiders into pieces and scattering them, temporarily blocking the advance of the big spider.

The flower vines behind Dorothy grew wildly and soon twisted into thick bundles of vines. The dragon vines wrapped around the Dragon Sealing Staff, and the star crystal vines wrapped around the Golden Sand Wand. She herself held the Arcane Wand, and dragon lightning, golden sand mist, and arcane missiles blasted out together, and the magical light enveloped the attacking enemies.

The two of them were venting their attacks desperately, not wanting to be brought any closer by these spiders.

Alulu held up the shield in one hand and swept the sword with the other, forcing the spider to retreat.

Seeing that they had an order, Leon controlled the earth and rocks to rise and cover Andasu, who was really unable to move due to fear, to prevent her from being hurt by the spider coming from behind, while he focused on fighting the white spider wasp.

This thing can also be tamed by him.

Egg sacs or larvae? Perhaps they can be found deep within its lair.

If Leon didn't show much interest in Salamander and Fairy Dragon, the opposite was true for the White Flower Spider Wasp.

The size of this monster is just enough to carry one or two people flying. As an alien insect monster, like bees, it has the ability to hover in the air and change the direction of flight vertically.

This is very useful, far better than flight speed.

This ability allows one to change direction at will during combat, attacking in unexpected ways.

For example, Windus cooperates with the griffin and wind-attribute equipment to achieve a storm attack. Since the griffin's turning angle is limited, there will definitely be blind spots in its attack.

If you ride the White Flower Spider Bee, you can not only minimize blind spots, but also find the enemy's weaknesses more easily.

On the other hand, it plays an exploratory role.
