Chapter 117: "Clues" (Part II)
Jeanne hated the grave robber who kept staring at her, but she didn't want to see Condell die in the spider's mouth.
Draenor didn't want to take this opportunity to walk away, they had already reached the edge of the map, and after that, they lost their exact direction. The young man had been clinging to the leader Lege, and if he was rescued, he might be able to win the trust of the tomb robbers, who, though they didn't seem very smart, had been around for at least a few years, and might be able to tell themselves about the whereabouts of the Elder King.
But it was obvious that the other party was separated by a distance of more than ten meters from the side of the carriage, and even if Condell was not entangled in spider silk, it would be difficult for everyone to rescue him in the air. Not to mention, the spiders were covered in armor-like, and even Vikilic's spear wouldn't necessarily be able to pierce their bodies.
Just as Draenor racked his brains to think, two huge spiders suddenly appeared in the distance, and instead of immediately attacking Condell, they paced leisurely around the cobwebs like rabbits.
Strange as it was, Draenor knew what the spiders were up to, and they didn't intend to kill Condell immediately, but instead used the emaciated young man as bait and waited for the people in the carriage to take the bait.
There was a sudden tremor in the carriage, and the horses in front of the carriage caught a glimpse of the spider in the distance, and began to jump in a panic, and the raised hooves of the horses fell to the ground again and again, and the dense cobwebs around them trembled again and again.
It seems that the IQ of these guys was underestimated before, although the area of the horse's hooves is not enough to be firmly attached to the spider silk, but the vibration of stepping on the spider web will still be detected by the spider. Even if they couldn't see their surroundings clearly, they must have figured out the structure of the carriage and knew that if they approached the carriage too easily, they would be hurt unnecessarily, so they left a hostage to try to lure everyone out of the carriage.
"Do you think you're a clever spider? It's funny enough. Although Vicilico's expression was unusually calm, cold sweat had begun to break out on her forehead. If she left this poor creature alone, she would be attacked by tomb robbers even if she escaped the range of the cobweb, but she herself would not be able to protect herself if she lost her weapon, let alone find a chance to deal with those spiders.
Vicheric grew agitated, only to see that Draenor beside her was laughing like crazy. Anxiety turned to anger, and she punched Draenor in the back without saying a word.
"When is it, can you restrain your sense of humor?"
Draenor hurriedly parried, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, and explained to her, "Hahahaha, sorry, I'm sorry, I just think it's a bit funny that spiders also want to be clever." Trust me, I have a foolproof plan. ”
Vicky looked at Draenor's strange expression in disbelief, and just as she was about to dissuade the other party, Draenor snatched the axe from Cooper's hand and slashed at the plank under his feet.

A crack had been cut in the bottom of the carriage, and Cooper had no time to stop Draenor's madness, only to see him split the planks again and again, and then reach out and pull out a spear from the bottom of the carriage.
"You see, I've already determined that the vibration of the carriage won't be noticed by the spider, so since there is no way to get out of the car and get a weapon, it's better to find another way." Draenor retracted his smile, his face full of confidence. He handed the spear into Viklico's hand, turned and pulled out his dagger and stuck it behind him.
It seems that Vekily has underestimated this guy a little, and he has obviously improved greatly in the time between his own spear piercing and waking up from his coma, and has his own opinions on many things, and those so-called "plans" have never failed so far.
"Jeanne! Our carriage should be tied to four horses, right? Untie the two horses tied to the front! Draenor shouted to Jeanne on the roof of the car, and although she was a little confused, she did as Draenor told her to untie the ropes that bound the two horses in front of her.
"Vicky, how fast can you get with your current speed?" Draenor asked, turning to Vekirico.
"There are no exact figures, but it should be possible to move twenty meters a second without relying on cold blood agents and without touching the ground." Vekily looked at Draenor and replied, she had already guessed Draenor's thoughts.
"In other words, it only takes less than two seconds to fly out of the carriage and save that poor worm and come back?" Draenor raised an eyebrow at Vicilico, reaching out and pulling the firebolt from the crack in the lower part of the carriage.
"I've guessed the heart of your plan, there's nothing to wrap around the spearhead of the Thorn Bird, it takes two seconds to go back and forth, and I need to buy me a little more time to get rid of the silk wrapped around Condell." She smiled at Draenor as she looked at the sharp spearhead in her hand, and picked up two broken planks from the carriage and carried them in her arms.
"To be on the safe side, five seconds should be enough. Jeanne, find a way to let those brutes go free! ”
With a command, Jeanne shook the reins and struck the two horses on their backs, and the frightened horses sprang into action, four pairs of hooves frantically trampling on the cobwebs.
The remaining two horses were firmly tethered to Jeanne, and the spiders in the distance sensed the vibration of the webs and flew towards the two panicked horses.
"Seize the opportunity! Go ahead! Draenor patted Viklico on the shoulder, she had already leaned down and gathered all her strength, and in an instant she rushed towards Condell like a bullet, and the moment she landed, she immediately put the prepared plank under her feet, as if she could avoid the annoying cobwebs.
"Woohoo! Woo! Condell seemed to see the light of hope, and even though his mouth was firmly wrapped in spider silk, he did not forget to tear open his throat and cry out.
"Shut up, it'll be fine soon!" Vikiriko drew her spear and aimed it at the spider silk beneath Condell, and with a sharp swing, the taut cocoon burst open, and Vikiriko immediately picked up his thin body and aimed it at the open door of the carriage and jumped to her feet.
It seemed that the weight-bearing jump would be slightly affected, and the bodies of the two began to fall downward in an instant less than a meter away from the carriage. Vekily can swing her spear to cut off the webs around her as soon as her leg touches the silk, but she still can't get rid of the silk by herself while holding someone.
At the last moment, Draenor quickly stretched out his arm and pulled the two into the carriage, ignoring Condell, who was sobbing on the side, turned around and knocked the roof of the carriage with the muzzle of his gun.
"Jeanne! Get this thing moving! ”
Jeanne hurriedly waved the reins, and the remaining two horses began to gallop forward with the carriage. The spiders sensed the tremors coming from the carriage and abandoned their prey and turned towards the carriage.
"No matter how strong the armor is, it is just a boiler in the face of fire!" Draenor grinned wickedly and pulled the trigger at the cobwebs scattered across the ground. There were no bullets, but the flames that burst from the muzzle of the gun alone were enough to turn the entire cobweb behind him into a sea of fire.
The spider's arthropods were scorched black by the sweeping flames, and countless huge bodies lost their balance and rolled on the ground, sticky spider silk wrapped around their bodies, and those cunning creatures were scorched into charred by the fire in less than ten seconds.
The carriage sped toward the terrified grave robbers in the distance, and Draenor blew away the smoke from the muzzle of the gun and pulled the fire behind him, the desert in front of him lit up red. He leaned lightly on the carriage, there was no need to look back at the fate of those spiders, "Tut-tut, it's dry, be careful of the candles." ”
