MTL - A Bar In An Alternate World: Pick Up A Young Witch-Chapter 25 Spider's meal today
"Ah, the cave in front is the spider cave where the registration task is located."
After crossing the plain, a wide cave entrance appeared at the foot of the mountain ahead, and Lanya, who was curled up in Ringe's arms, pointed to the cave entrance and said.
The two fled here on horseback all the way, but they still haven't escaped from the pursuit of the lizardmen.
"How deep is the hole?" Ringo asked.
"I don't know, the terrain inside is complicated, it's almost a huge underground labyrinth, I've never heard of an adventurer reaching the deepest point."
There was a rapid sound of horseshoes from behind, and those lizardmen had already caught up, and Linge didn't have more time to think about it.
"It seems that we can only hide inside, rely on the terrain inside to get rid of them, and then escape."
Ringer decided on a plan of action, and immediately drove his horse into the dark cave.
Not long after the two entered the cave, six more horses flew up and stopped at the entrance of the cave.
"Master Shaffer, they fled into the spider cave, what should we do?"
"Although the spider cave is an exploration site for novice adventurers, the danger and death rate are not high, but the internal terrain is complex, like a maze. No one has reached the deepest point so far. It is not an easy task to find someone inside." Another lizardman who had entered the spider cave reminded.
Shaffer thought for a moment, and then ordered: "Stuart and Pierce guard the entrance of the cave, and the rest and I go in and chase."
"yes!"
Shaffer led three of his men and was about to rush into the cave when a horse neighed suddenly, and then a red-maned horse galloped out of the cave, with a huge flower-bellied spider lying on its buttocks.
"It's Nur al-Din's horse. It seems that they were attacked by spiders. Maybe they haven't gone far. Chase them quickly!"
Shaffer and three of his men quickly rushed into the hole. Stewart and Pierce, who stayed at the entrance, stopped the fleeing horse, stabbed the large spider lying on the horse's **** to death, and saved it, otherwise it would surely die. Get sucked dry by this spider.
inside the cave.
Linge holds the staff tightly in his right hand, and a cluster of bright flames burns in his left hand, one for lighting and the other for driving away spiders.
This group of spiders living in dark caves seems to be very afraid of flames and will automatically avoid the range of light sources.
Lanya clutched his cloak tightly, looking very nervous, especially when she found that there were many spiders larger than human heads hanging upside down in the cave.
Although under the reflection of the fire, they were all rising to avoid the heat and light of the flame, but she was very worried that they would accidentally fall, what if they hit her head?
"Ringer, do we still have to go inside? The spiders here seem to be getting bigger and bigger." Lanya gently tugged on Ringer's cloak.
Linge stopped for a while and said, "The fire in my hand is very eye-catching in the dark. If those lizardmen chase us nearby, they will easily find us, but if I extinguish the flame, the surrounding spiders will swarm up... So We can't stop, at least find a safe place to hide."
Lan Ya thought about the terrifying scene surrounded by giant spiders, her petite body trembled: "Then let's continue walking in."
But she doubted very much, would there really be a safe place inside? There won't be any powerful monsters popping up all of a sudden, right?
Although the Spider Cave is a popular exploration place for novice adventurers, and it is rare to hear of people dying here, she was still a little scared and couldn't help getting closer to Ringer, almost hitting his back.
Linger, who was walking in front, stopped suddenly. Lanya couldn't react in time, and bumped her head on his back.
"Ah, I'm sorry." Lanya covered her nose, looking past Ringer's side, trying to see why he suddenly stopped.
The passage in front of Ringer was covered with thick spider webs, and there was a pile of white eggs stuck together nearby.
"Is that a spider's egg? It's disgusting." Lanya smelled a pungent smell, held her breath, and frowned.
Linger stepped into the area covered by the spider webs. The spider webs under his feet were sticky, as if he was stepping on glue. Lanya bit the bullet and continued to move forward with him. Soon after, the two walked out of the passage and entered a spacious stone room with four walls and the ground. They are all covered with spider silk, and there are dense spider eggs piled up in the corners.
But when I got here, there was no sign of the spiders.
There was a gap at the top of the stone chamber, the inside was pitch black, how deep it was, and there was a slight sound of wind coming from it.
The icy wind blew out from the gap, Lanya shrank and said: "I always feel that something is not good here, can we go back? Those lizard people might not be able to find us anymore."
Linge suddenly made a silent gesture, Lanya covered her mouth, her eyes showed nervousness.
Did he find anything?
The cave was quiet, and Lanya could almost hear Ringo's breathing. Besides, some kind of sound seemed to be getting louder.
It's the wind!
The wind from the top of the cave was louder than before, and something seemed to be falling rapidly.
Linge raised the staff in his right hand, and the sapphire at the top of the staff emitted a bright light. Linger waved the staff lightly, and the ray of light escaped and rose into the gap, illuminating the darkness within.
Amidst the whistling sound, a huge monster fell into the range of the light source. It was a huge black spider, with eight spider legs shaped like spears, and a pair of fangs like black scimitars, shining with an icy luster.
The giant spider's plump abdomen was connected with shiny silk, and it hung upside down, heading straight to the top of the two of them. Linge hurriedly pulled Lanya out of the way.
When the giant spider landed, its abdomen rolled up, and a large white liquid sprayed out from the tip of the abdomen, and sprinkled on the two of them.
There was a pungent smell in the air, and Linge raised his staff and built a wind wall in front of him to stop the spilled liquid.
These liquids solidified quickly after falling to the ground, forming a sticky spider silk. If you let this thing get on your body in large quantities, you will definitely lose your ability to move.
At this time, the giant spider raised a pair of spider legs in front of it, and then plunged into the ground, tearing a crack in the ground, and quickly spread towards the place where the two were standing.
Ling pulled past Lanya and dodged to the side, but the ground under her feet collapsed, and there was still a huge dark space underground.
During the fall, Lanya hugged Ringer tightly, and the two fell into the bottomless underground space together.
Spider threads shot continuously from the surrounding darkness, and the falling two couldn't avoid it. They were soon wrapped in layers of spider threads, leaving only their heads exposed.
The falling momentum stopped suddenly, and something soft and tough stopped them, like a spider web, the two of them fell into the web, the nearby spider web trembled twice, and then stopped.
The spider silk wrapped around them quickly condensed, like a solid cocoon, tough and elastic. Ringer tried to break free, but the more he struggled, the tighter the spider silk shrank.
Lan Ya twisted her body uneasily, her breathing became heavy, it sounded a bit difficult, it seemed that she was about to be unable to breathe, and he had to stop struggling.
"Are we going to be eaten by giant spiders?"
Lan Ya's breath hit his face, and her tone was a little flustered. Within the spider web, Linge could even feel her heart beating faster due to fear.
He smiled wryly, "I think so."
Lan Ya's eyes immediately became wet, and she flashed a look of fear, and Linge felt her petite body tremble.
He said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, when it comes to eat us, I will attract its attention so that it can eat me first."
Lan Ya's lips were trembling, and she stammered: "Then eat me first, otherwise it will be even more terrifying if I hear the sound of you being eaten little by little. In that case, I might pee... eh. "
Lan Ya blushed and didn't continue talking, and her sense of fear was weakened a little due to shyness.
Neither of them continued talking, as if they were waiting for a certain big spider to come and eat them, but the expected big spider didn't appear.
It was still dark all around, there was no sound at all, it was eerily quiet.
But when the two fell just now, there were more than one spider spinning silk in the darkness. Ringer thought to himself, maybe they were staring at him not far away, but he couldn't see it.
Or maybe they have no appetite for the time being and want to use them as food reserves.
After being silent for a while, Lanya might not be able to stand the silence, so she asked:
"Are not you afraid?"
Ringer smiled slightly: "Of course I'm afraid, but it's useless to be afraid, so I'm not so afraid. Why don't we pray, for example, if adventurers find us and rescue us, don't adventurers often come here to explore?"
"If such a miracle really happens, I will worship Goddess Mipas every day when I go back." Lan Ya said piously.
"Who is that?"
"The world symbolizes the goddess of wonder and hope."
Ringer sighed: "If I had known this would be the end, I might as well fight those lizardmen, maybe I still have a chance to break out."
Lan Ya whispered: "I'm sorry, if I hadn't invited you to form a team, you wouldn't have left the city."
"It's none of your business. Even if it's not to complete the registration task, I will go out of the city to try the newly learned magic. If I want to blame it, I have to blame that red-skinned lizard. If I didn't meet him that day, I wouldn't Being targeted."
At this time, Prince Lieyang should be learning about the culture of the New World through the computer in his rented house. Ringe suddenly thought, if he died here like this, would he still be able to come back.
There was another moment of silence. In the darkness, Lanya felt relieved by Ringer's body temperature, as if she was not so afraid.
After all, she is also a necromancer, UU reading www.uukanshu.com death is the same thing for a necromancer.
"Ringer, how do spiders eat? Do they eat the head first?"
Ringer thought for a while and said: "I observed the spiders in the cave after entering the cave. Their mouthparts are very small and they don't have upper jaws. They shouldn't be able to chew. Even the big one that attacked us just now couldn't swallow a big spider prey.
So I think they will inject toxins or digestive juices into the body of the prey, melt the body of the prey, and then **** it with the mouthparts. "
Lan Ya shivered, and became frightened again: "Will our bodies be melted too?"
Ringer said with a smile: "In order to prevent the prey from struggling, the venom of most spiders has a paralyzing effect, so that the process is not too painful. Maybe after being pricked by their poisonous pincers, we will know nothing, so Don't be afraid."
In the darkness, after another period of time, there was still no movement around.
Just when Linge was feeling strange, Lanya twisted her body uncomfortably in the cocoon of spider silk, and then a suppressed and shy voice rang in his ear.
"Ringer, what should I do? I, I want to pee."
Ringer was surprised: "Can't you transform food into magic power?"
"Yes, it's a drink in your shop."
Ringer sighed and said, "We can't escape anyway, you can do whatever you want, I won't mind."
In the darkness, a flushed little face appeared in front of Ringer's eyes.
"But, but..."
Looking at Lanya's shy and angry little face, Linge was startled suddenly.
No, where does the light come from?
He looked up, and in the suddenly constricted pupils, there was a giant golden spider that was glowing all over, slowly falling from the darkness.
