The ground was covered with cobwebs, and the trunks of the trees on both sides were completely covered in cobwebs, turning into two thick silver walls, and the entrance to the spider cave was half a man tall and a man wide. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The five of them cautiously advanced, this place has entered the hinterland of the spider territory, and it is not known when it will be raided.

Barak's expression became more and more serious, and after walking for a while, he stopped and said, "Something is wrong, you see, all these spider silks are dry. ”

Everyone looked closely, and sure enough, the spider silk walls that had been used twice had dried up and turned yellow, and there were cracks in some places.

Duck said: "I haven't encountered a single spider along the way, and they have all disappeared?"

Royce said, "Could it be that the Spider Empress is really weakened?"

Barak shook his head: "Be careful, you can't jump to conclusions yet." Tiger, open the cocoons next to you and take a look. ”

Yu Panji answered, and a sword cut open a cocoon shell: "Empty!"

"Look at something else. ”

Yu Panji brushed away a few next to him: "It's all empty!"

"That pile over there!"

Barak pointed to a small pile of round cocoons the size of soccer balls, which were the eggs of giant spiders. According to common sense, don't talk about chopping, people would have already alarmed the giant spider swarm when they reached this position, but now it is quiet.

Yupanki slashed the cocoon pile with a sword: "There's a dark green paste thing down there, and nothing else." ”

Dark: They looked at Barak.

Barak muttered, "The dark green thing is a corrupted spider egg, and this color will be left alone for at least ten days. I don't even want eggs, what the hell is wrong with the Spider Queen? Is it really the replacement of the old with the new? We're so lucky, right?"

Isabella asked eagerly, "What if we catch up?"

"As long as we don't kill the Spider Empress, all the spiders won't take the initiative to fight us. We can get unblocked. ”

"What if we're halfway through and we're done with the old and the new?"

"The new Spider Empress will have a period of full maturity that lasts for six to eight days, during which the spider colonies will fight on their own, and some of them will even kill each other violently, basically undefended. ”

Duck laughed, "How about we find the lair and capture her alive?"

"Spiders will play with you. ”

"Without unified command and cooperation, we are not afraid to play with our lives!"

"Don't be whimsical, walk honestly!"

However, the good fortune did not last long, and after only a short walk, fresh spider silk reappeared.

The crowd immediately became alert and preoccupied with vigilance.

With a click, a colorful spider arthropod fell from the canopy. When I looked up, there were two spiders fighting in the canopy, one was crushed under him, and he had broken a leg, and he was unable to move, and the other jumped on his back and bit through his skull.

Before the victor had time to rejoice, under the canopy, a projectile with the breath of thunder and lightning flew forward, freezing all its movements on the canopy, and then crashed to the ground, the paralyzed body could not adjust its posture, fell heavily to the ground, and fell apart.

Royce made a sneak attack and said, "Look at this color and size, it's similar to the Spider Leader." Are you really killing each other?"

Isabella said excitedly, "Then let's hurry through!"

"Now the spiders are crazy, you must be careful what you see biting. ”

Sure enough, after a few steps, a giant spider with gray and yellow stripes suddenly burst out of the spider cave, with its sharp teeth wide open, demonstrating to everyone.

Duck stepped forward, grabbed the hammer in both hands, and slapped the spider's body upside down, leaving only eight legs.

Duck smiled: "Just these few little thin legs, fighting with grandpa?

Barak said: "This is the kind of spider that dragged the lone wolf away just now, and it is not the legs that are broken off, but the tips of its feet, which are usually propped up and stuck in the wall or in the tree. Originally, it was the silk that stuck the prey and dragged it into the hole. Now it's just out for hand-to-hand combat. ”

"Spiders are crazy, aren't they?"

"It's getting more and more wrong, it looks like something is really wrong with the Spider Queen, but-"

"But what?"

"The last time the old and the new were replaced was about six years ago, and the timing was wrong. ”

Duck laughed and said, "Maybe he's usurped power?"

"How is it possible! The new empress is hatched by the old empress, and I have never heard of immature spider eggs hatching small spiders. ”

"Anyway, it's not harmful to us—what's that one up ahead? hanging on a tree?"

The crowd looked in the direction Duck was pointing, and on the thick branches in front of them hung a huge spindle-shaped cocoon more than two people high, and the cocoon had broken a large hole.

Barak walked over, looked at it carefully, reached in and touched it, and said, "An unlucky swamp crocodile has been caught as a snack, and only teeth and bones remain." ”

Royce said: "This spider is really a cow, even a crocodile can catch it." No wonder I didn't even have the strength to fight back just now. ”

"Of course, there's nothing in this swamp that it can't eat. However, in general, as long as they do not invade the territory of spiders and do not actively attack them, they are not likely to actively attack people. Take the spiders we fought just now, many people in the tribe have never seen them in their lifetimes. ”

"Why didn't they cover the swamp with such strength?"

"I don't have enough to eat. They're not stupid. Wait, now this road...... Wait for me a moment. ”

Barak climbed the tree and looked at it, then slid down and said, "From here on, it is a place where the spiders store food, and it is full of cocoons, so be careful. Especially the pale yellow, ball-like cocoons, which were hatching spiders, and might have been guarded by spiders nearby, and the very large, strange-shaped ones were far away from them, and who knew what was sealed inside. ”

Isabella asked, "Isn't it going to die if you seal it up?"

"People are bound to die, and some guys don't. For example, the swamp stag tooth worm, that guy, the carapace is as thick as a finger!"

Isabel stretched out a finger: "It's not thick." ”

"Stand up!"

“......”

"That guy is not only carapace thick, but also spell-resistant, usually when he is too lazy to look for food, he shrinks into a ball, deliberately rolls into the spider's territory, and waits for the spider to drag it to the place where the food is stored, bite through the cocoon and come out to eat ready-made. Spiders just don't have a way to take it. ”

Duck laughed, "Bugs are scoundrels too." ”

"So don't move here!"

"Understood!"

Everyone continued to walk, and the scene was different from Fang Cai, almost all the trees had been emptied, and the surroundings were densely covered with cocoons, and even some of them were five or six meters high, and they were like huge cocoons like hills. Barak said that it was the nest of the spider guards, and that the higher the cocoon, the stronger the guards, but the cocoons were all empty, and some of them were still fresh, and they looked like they had just been abandoned.

In addition to the dense cocoons around it, there are also many caves hidden under the heavy spider silk on the ground, some of which are very deep and do not know where they lead. Barak explained that these were passages to the underground spider's nest.

There were no spiders around, so Barak explained to the crowd the types of swamp spiders, all of which spit silk, and can be divided into trap spiders and killer spiders according to their webs and non-webs.

Trapping spiders has the most species, most of them are not very toxic, but the web is extremely cunning to use, the big one is like a house, the small one is like a fist, it is impossible to prevent it, it is not necessarily when it hits, the web has a paralyzing toxin, once it hits no one to help, a dead end.

Killer spiders, on the other hand, hunt mainly by jumping and raiding, such as the leaper who pulls a spider silk and flies over thirty or fifty meters from the sky, or the pinpoint shooter entangler who has just captured Royce. Most of them are highly toxic, and a bite will take you three to five seconds.

The most difficult thing is that these spiders fight together under the command of the Spider Queen, and it can be said that they have few opponents in the complex terrain of the jungle.

"So," Barak said, "we've made a big deal this time...... Big Bear, what are you doing!"

Duck ran up to a wriggling humanoid cocoon and said loudly, "There's a voice here, it doesn't seem to be a spider, do you want to open it and take a look?"
