Chapter 312: The Secret of the Spider Cave

"Why, every time I think of Spaddle dead, it's a pity that her body was taken away by the invaders, it's good material!" Cross said with great regret. He apparently didn't realize what Spicedle's death meant to his master.

Cross sees the projection as Spridel and Alfie talking for a while, then dying. As for her precious spider egg, Cross didn't care about it at all.

......

"Something wasn't right, why did their atmosphere get so weird, and why didn't they leave the hatchery and go back to the Spider Cave instead of continuing to the next level?" Tenaire told him about Koko's origins, which made her unaware of the darkness and the concealment of the potion.

What really worries Tenel is that the Eye of Sakarbas has not really arrived, and the spider egg containing the Eye of Sakarbas has ended up in the hands of the animal trainer Katie. - Kind-hearted Celent was obviously not going to rush to ask for the treasure at such a time.

"You—do you think they're going to avoid the horrors behind it?" Coco stammered, completely shocked by his origins. Not long ago, Cross arranged the Garden of Flames as the next level, and the crystal ball completely fell into his and Tenel's eyes.

"How could that be? That was carefully arranged by that fellow Cross, and no matter which direction they went, they would enter the Garden of Fire. I have to admit that the Grand Duke of Bavaria, who created this defense system, still has two brushes, but unfortunately he didn't have the opportunity to compete with him head-on. Tenael's eyes lit up with excitement and she said eagerly.

"Is it possible for them to pass the test of Anthony the Fire Hand then?" Coco asked worriedly.

"Only when they pass the test can they be qualified to be your companions. Let's wait and see. Maybe they do have a chance to get in front of us. Tenelle had an incomprehensible smile on her face.

......

The atmosphere in Alfie and the others' ranks was extremely low and solemn at this time, and everyone was immersed in Spicedel's tragic experience.

Spidell and Kreese have waited for two thousand years, but they have always been on the same side, and the freedom they have been seeking has never really been obtained. Now one of them has been transformed into a ghost, and the other has died in disappointment. This filled the hearts of several "murderers" who indirectly killed Spicel with self-blame.

"Alfie, why are we going back? shouldn't we keep going?" asked Zambit, the only one who had no psychological burden.

"Spicer told me a secret on her deathbed, that there was a strange thing in the depths of the spider cave that she wanted me to see. Alfie gently stroked Krees' badge in his hand. There was a tooth mark left by Spadel on it, and according to her, she had left all the messages she wanted to tell Krees in that tooth mark.

Before he died, after entrusting the eggs to them, Spadel whispered to him that there was a strange magic circle in the depths of the spider cave, which she was sure had mysteriously appeared after the Count had gone into hibernation.

This made Alfie intrigued, and as far as he knew, the entire castle had been razed to the ground by the Imperial army that had followed him after the Count had gone into hibernation.

For two thousand years, adventurers have been visiting the castle, but they have never actually entered the ruins of the castle, so why did the mysterious magic circle suddenly appear there? Alfie smelled a strong conspiracy from it.

"Magic Array?" Barnett, who was drunken and hazy, immediately came to his senses when he heard this word, "Do we have any magic array masters among us?"

"Mr. Barnett, I know you have a friend who is a master of the magic circle, but I'm afraid it won't help us in any way?" Celent remembered Barnett's boasting vividly.

"Huh, did I mention it to you, why don't I remember it?" asked Barnett, hesitantly, he couldn't remember any previous encounters with this paladin, let alone anything about Kenobi.

"Maybe you've drunk so much that you've forgotten. Silent laughed dryly twice to hide it, he always forgot the role he was playing now, and unconsciously revealed his flaws.

Alfie glanced at Celent suspiciously, if he felt a little strange that the "Vincent" in Celent's mouth suddenly appeared here, now he has doubts about Vincent's identity, is this guy really the steady paladin in Celent's mouth?

"Elfi, are you sure where that magic circle is?" asked Celrant, stiffly. He remembered that Alfie had told him that the best way to dispel a person's suspicion was not to find a way to cover it up, but to face the person who doubted you calmly, so that the effect of dispelling the suspicion would be better.

"It should be not far from here, let me look for it, yes, this is it. Alfie withdrew his skeptical gaze, at least for now, he couldn't see what impure purpose the paladin had.

He stood at the entrance of the tunnel and glanced into the spider cave, and quickly settled on his target—after taking a few steps in one direction, he leaned down to peel away a thick pile of cobwebs, revealing an unusually complex and large magic circle hidden beneath it.

"Huh, why did Alfie determine the location so quickly?" Zambit looked around, at the bottom of this spider cave with an area of thousands of square meters, Alfie almost went straight to the point, coming straight here through the tunnel leading to the hatchery and discovering the magic circle hidden underneath, which made Zambit suspect that he was cheating - Spadel must have told him the exact location, it must have been!

"If you look closely, you can see how this place is different from other places. Instead of telling Zambit the answer, Alfie let him observe for himself.

Coughlon nodded his head secretly, his eyes full of appreciation, and there was no doubt that what he saw was also seen by the bard.

"Is there any difference between this place and other places? Why can't people see it?" asked Katie curiously.

At this time, Rebecca had been in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, and from time to time she cast suspicious glances at Coughlon, so that Coughlon subconsciously avoided her, and Barnett was already too drunk to stand on her feet, so she simply lay down at the entrance of the Yongdao and snored.

Of the rest, apart from Coughren and Alfie, who had already seen the doorway, Slent had been frowning and observing, while Zambit was looking around like a stupid bird, looking for a difference, or worrying if a spider would suddenly pop up around him that scared him. Only the cute little Katie built a ladder for Alfie at the right time.

"What do you think, Knight Vincent?" Alfie threw the question at Serent, his suspicions of which were not completely dispelled.

"Could it be the cobweb-covered corpses?" asked Severnt, uncertain.
