Chapter 421
Chapter 421 Spider Hall
The battle in the tunnel was vicious!
Neither party had room to dodge. Everything was a matter of raw firepower.
Greem had the Roaring Monster on his side as a shield. The continuous supply of earth elementium ensured that the Roaring Monster could fight on endlessly. Even if the number of spiders was a little overwhelming, they could do nothing about the three-headed demon hound attacking from behind.
Greem followed behind Unguja and the Monster, casually lighting up everything in the tunnel that got in his way. It was only when the chip deemed a specific spider corpse of research value that Greem would take the effort to bend down and pick it up.
Meanwhile, all the opportunistic magical creatures that had secretly trailed behind Greem’s party and followed him into the cave had been devoured by a mysterious enemy in the pitch-black darkness.
At first, the only ones standing in Greem’s way were small and large spiders of various types. There were tarantulas the size of Tibetan mastiffs that walked along the walls of the cave as if they were on flat ground. You had small and stout jumping spiders with thick and powerful legs designed for leaping. You even had evarcha spiders that spit poison and hunted from a distance.
The monumental battle earlier had been tough on Tula. Its injuries would not have recovered that quickly if it hadn’t devoured the three or four of its descendants that possessed adept-level powers.
Its pride as a magical creature lord didn’t allow it to run when it saw Greem arrive in pursuit. It could only sit here and stare at the cruel bastards that had broken into its palace with hate in its eyes.
“Nice. Very nice,” Tula’s wicked mandibles sent sparks flying everywhere when they clashed together as it spoke, “I am very curious. This should be the first time you are visiting my spider cave. What method did you use to make it through the labyrinth that I created without any mistake? How did you find this place?”
These questions disturbed it deeply. According to its estimations, even if Greem and his party had managed to make it here, it should have at least taken seven or eight hours to do so. This buffer of time would have been enough for it to hatch its ideal mutated spiders successfully.
After all, this was the first time it had managed to obtain a magical creature leader as prey!
However, Greem had succeeded in navigating the safest and shortest route to rush straight into his quarters. Of course, this came as a shock to Tula!
“I don’t seem to have any obligation to answer your doubts, do I?!” Greem’s mouth twisted in disdain before coldly speaking, “Everyone knows the villains die by monologue. You had best die with your doubts still in your heart.”
Greem’s mental flux seemed to act as a signal. The Roaring Monster’s stone spikes, Unguja’s tri-elementium spells, the Decayer’s acid balls, and his own Fire Core Explosion all launched at the same instant. The fierce magic thundered across the hall like a typhoon, crashing towards Tula.
The entire party prepared the second wave of spells in tandem right after they had released the first one.
At the same moment the spells consumed Tula’s body, many spiderites climbed out from everywhere. The webs, the stalagmites, the pillars, the cracks in the walls. These spiderites swarmed towards the party from every direction.
At the same time, a shadow loomed from above. A large form crashed down toward the group from the ceiling overhead. Eight sharp limbs were like eight horrifying spears, whistling through the air as they stabbed at the party.
Enemy assault…
