Chapter 068: Post-War I
The furious drums of war slowly stopped, replaced by the sound of horns getting louder and louder.
When the Drow warriors, who were exhausted from battle, heard this voice, they raised their crossbows in their hands in spite of their tired bodies and shouted, "We have won!" We won! β
Contrary to what we know of humans, among the Greenskins, the sound of war drums represents an attack, while the sound of a trumpet means retreat. Goblins poured in like a tidal wave and exited like a tidal tide.
Perhaps everyone here can imagine that after holding on for two full hours under the siege of the tide of goblins, the arrows in the quiver decreased one by one, the sword in his hand lost its sharpness little by little, and his physical strength dried up little by little...
Just as death was slowly approaching, the desperate warriors suddenly heard the sound of the enemy's horn to retreat! What kind of joy and excitement for the rest of your life?
The news of the victory reached the ears of every Drow warrior, who was already exhausted. And when they saw the corpses of their comrades-in-arms and construction workers around them, the cries of victory gradually turned into sad sighs.
Gados looked at Reg who was lying on the ground struggling in pain and asked, "Are you okay?" β
Reg reluctantly opened his eyes, glanced at Gados, and said bitterly, "I, poisoned... Now, there's a bottle in my fanny bag... Antidote..."
Gauldos then scoured the vial and fed it to Reg's mouth.
After drinking the potion, Reg became much more conscious, but his face was still extremely pale, and several fresh blood marks flowed from the corners of his mouth. This manifestation is obviously the antidote that suppresses the neurological disorder effect of the Hydra toxin, but the damage of the toxin to the body still cannot be alleviated.
Gao Duos fed him 200 ml of [Delicious Goat's Milk], and then activated the status effect of [+1HP/10 minutes] on him, which can somewhat delay the speed of death and buy time for rescue.
He thought for a moment, then took out the remaining half bottle of [No. 1 Light Healing Potion] and pulled out the cork, trying to pour it into his mouth.
Looking at the clear potion in the hand of Gados, Reg was a little surprised:
"It's... Number 1? No, I can't drink it! β
Reg pursed his lips desperately, refusing further help from Gauldoth.
Gao Duos couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately slapped him and scolded angrily: "How stupid are you? Is it still time to take care of your bad temper? Give it to Lao Tzu first! β
Looking at the angry expression of Gao Duos and the word "stupid" in his mouth that accentuated his tone, Reg was a little willing. He saw that the anxiety shown by Gaudus was not a fake, and drank the other half of the No. 1 bottle, and said sincerely, "Thank you... I'm sorry, my friend. β
Hearing such words come out of Reg's mouth, Gao Duos was really a little surprised, he felt that with Reg's person, he would not say such a thing.
Despite the heavy casualties, the battle ended in victory.
Spider is also in a very poor state, not only does ovulation consume a lot of physical strength, but also resisting Hydra's neurotoxins. She crawled slowly to the snake's head, stretched out her arthropods, killed it completely, and began to eat.
The surviving fighters also began to bury their dead comrades and clean up the corpses of the enemy. They are exhausted, but if this work is not carried out soon, then a plague that is even deadlier than the goblins will follow.
Seeing that everything was going on in an orderly manner, Gao Duos finally had a chance to run the [Improved Basic Meditation Lv2] and check his attribute panel by the way.
In addition to the class [Light Cavalry] upgraded by 4 levels in a row, increasing 4 points of strength, sensitivity, and body attributes, there is also the [Flesh and Blood Armor Lv1] increased to lv2.
[Flesh Armor] has been increased to lv2, not only has the Flesh Armor itself been strengthened in toughness and sturdiness, and the blood-draining effect has become stronger, but also in terms of armor types:
γFlesh Armor Lv2γ
[The current types of armor that can be condensed: scale armor, leather armor.] γ
There is no doubt that the relatively heavy scale armor is suitable for warrior-type domination skeletons, which consume more mana, while the light leather armor is best suited for archer-type and assassin-type domination skeletons, which consume less mana.
In other words, due to the existence of flesh and blood armor and the soul characteristics of the dominant skeleton, the dominant skeleton of Gaudus has now developed in the direction of regularization, functionalization, and division of labor.
More like a real army!
And after this battle, the intimacy between Gaudus and Spider finally reached 100 points.
It's time to conclude a soul contract.
After Spider Ji finished eating and regained her strength, Gao Duos activated the ability of [Soul Lv3] and transferred the option of the Soul Contract to Spider Queen.
Spider didn't hesitate for a moment, and simply concluded the soul contract.
[You have made a soul contract with "Spider Hime". γ
[Current contract level: Lv1.] γ
At the moment when the contract was concluded, Gaudus suddenly heard a female voice as beautiful as a wind chime, and extremely seductive:
"Little boy, sister, I can finally talk to you, hehe."
This is one of the functions of the soul contract: to communicate without barriers, within the scope of validity.
When he heard the voice of this seductive maiden, Gao Duos couldn't believe his ears... This beautiful voice that is tempting to explode, it turned out to be made by Spider Ji?
He glanced at Spider again... It's hard to imagine that the Broodmother Demon can make such a beautiful sound.
"Little boy, don't judge people by their appearance, your sister and I will evaluate according to the aesthetics of the genus of insects, and that is also a beauty who captivates the country and the city."
She... How could she perceive my thoughts?
As if to confirm this, Spider replied, "Now that we have created a soul contract, I know exactly what is going on in your heart. β
β¦
Gao Duos was speechless for a while, and it was really unpleasant to be watched by a mischievous "beauty" Spider Ji. He said in his heart, "Little boy... I'm afraid you're not qualified to say that about me, little spider, I remember when I first met you, you were just a child. β
Hearing this, Spider Ji was silent for a while, and said through some gritted teeth: "It's all to blame on that old guy, I stayed in my infancy for 20 years!" β
"Old fellow? You mean Ray. Field? β
"Yes, that's him! I'm Christina, the most talented spider princess of the webweaver tribe! I was thrown into that damn concoction solution by this guy and soaked it for 20 years! β
Through the soul contract, Gaudus was able to clearly feel the emotional fluctuations on the other side. Could it be that Spider still has an unbearable past?
After a while, Spider's mood calmed down, and she felt the mood of Gao Duosi, and said, "Little boy, it seems that you are curious about my story, right?" β
"Hmm... It's a little curious. β
"Okay, then I'll tell you about me."
Christina, aka the story of Spider Queen, is actually quite simple.
The Weaving Web Tribe, a troglodyte demon tribe living in the northern mountain wasteland, was attacked by a demon from another dimension, and all of them were killed, only the young Spider Ji escaped under the cover of her parents, and then fainted on the side of the road because of fright and physical exhaustion. Field picked it up and raised it.
Spider Ji is different from other brothers and sisters, she is the "Spider Princess" conceived by her parents with a secret method, with the purest and most powerful ancient bloodline and natural ability, so she also enjoys the special treatment of her parents, in addition to the inclination of resources, there are more emotional exchanges, for example, many insects can't enjoy... Father's love, mother's love.
So after the loss, she longed for these feelings even more.
In being thundered. In the process of raising Field, she was thrown into the concoction solution to receive bloodline modulation, further optimizing her already excellent bloodline.
For 20 years, it was carried out in the process of blood modulation.
So 20 years later, when she finished concoction, Gaudus appeared.
This person who feeds her at a fixed time every day brings her a long-lost touch, which is not fatherly love and mother's love, but is similar to a kind of emotional care from younger brothers and sisters.
As a result, Spider Ji's heart longs for emotion and fully accepts the person in front of her.
β¦
"That's the story."
After hearing this, Gaudus couldn't help but sigh, thinking to himself and herself, and Ray. Field, like Alice, is a poor man.
When she felt the somewhat sad mood of Gao Duos, Spider Ji comforted Gao Duos instead: "Little boy, don't be sad, let the past pass, we have to look forward, don't we?" β
Gao Duo was a little speechless, only to hear Spider Ji continue: "Little boy, don't worry, although you are a necromancer, your sister will protect you in the future. When I reach adulthood and become a real 'spider princess', huh! β
Listening to Spider's confident voice, Gao Duos was a little embarrassed and asked, "Then what should I call you from now on?" β
"Well... Call me 'Spider Princess' or 'Great Christina'!" β
"Okay little spider."
"Shut up! Again, call me 'Princess Spider' or 'The Great Christina'! β
"No problem, my Spider Queen."
"You..."
Just as a man and a spider were fighting, a huge bird suddenly sounded in the air.
Gauldos looked up, and immediately saw a huge griffon with flapping silver wings through the clouds and descending straight down, and the knight on the griffin was none other than the second elder of the Eternal Dark Moon, Daze.
