Chapter 383: The Headless Horseman
"That's right, at least four or five times as much as the mother!" Phil looked serious.
Ollie still couldn't believe it: "How can there be such a big bug?"
"But you don't have to worry too much, although the spider queen is large, it can't move, it can only stay in the nest, of course, as long as it lives, it won't let any creature leave the nest alive. Phil said.
"Didn't you come out alive?" said Lukka, tapping his finger on the top of his head.
"Because I didn't go into the lair. Phil replied in a whisper, obviously embarrassed.
Ollie almost squirted out the sip of water she had just drunk: "Then you said so much, it's all conjecture?"
Phil rolled his eyes: "How can it be a conjecture for me to be such a strict person?"
He turned around and pulled out a book from the storage shelf in the back, and by looking at the binding style, he could tell that it was the book in the goblin library.
"This is summarized by goblins from generation to generation, about the biological habits of the stone shell spider, I went to the vicinity of the nest this time, verified a lot, and also made some additions and corrections to the records according to what I saw," he pointed to the page of the book and wrote down the notes with his pen, "For the specific situation of the spider, although I only speculate, it should not be too different." ”
"Well, I believe in your scientific literacy. "On this issue, Luca has no intention of questioning it at all.
"But, according to you, we need to pass through a nest of large bugs, perhaps more than ten meters long?" Ollie checked the target.
"Not just to go through, but to bring Linde out. Phil said.
Looking at Ollie's expression, he added, "You don't have to worry too much, the spider queen may not be able to withstand magic, right?" besides, I've tried it, and the paralyzing solvent doesn't work on it, but if you burn it with fire, it's still very useful. ”
He took out another glass bottle: "I threw several Molotov cocktails into it yesterday, although the situation of the spider queen is unknown, but many stone shell spiders have escaped from the nest, including several female insects! It's a pity that I don't have enough Molotov cocktails, this time with your help, I plan to bring all the inventory here." ”
"Wait," Lukka suddenly discovered a terrible fact, "those two bugs that ran into the city couldn't have escaped when you attacked the spider's lair, right?"
"Could that be the case?" Phil scratched his head, not knowing for sure.
"Anyway, it has nothing to do with you, don't be lazy about the rescue here, take out all the potions that you can use. Ollie poked his forehead lightly with her fingers.
"So, how many casualties are there in this city?" asked Phil, slurring. He was hell-bent on rescuing Linde, but he found that he had led to irreparable consequences, which left him at a loss for how to face the timid President Gavin again.
"You're lucky, I happen to be in this city, and both bugs have been done. Before I came here, I glanced at the reports Gavin had received, and there were no goblins killed, but there were quite a few injuries, the most serious of which seemed to be broken legs. Lukka reached out and rubbed Phil's hair, but he touched a hand of slimy purple liquid, the potion in the jar that had just been smashed on his head was quite difficult to wipe clean.
Phil took a deep breath: "Let's double the potion for treating trauma, I'll go and mix it now, and we'll go to Linde tomorrow." ”
"That's fine, but you'd better wash your hair first," Lukka said, rising from the ground, "I'll go get ready, I'll meet the queen tomorrow." ”
This spider queen, although it sounds a little difficult to handle, is just a big bug after all. It would have been safer if he could bring the power of change with him in the big box in the study, but now he still needs it to deliver the news, and he can't move it, Lukka feels a little regretful.
Suddenly two horns sounded in the direction of the door, and it sounded like the strange-looking car had driven back.
Sure enough, within two minutes, Gavin walked in, followed by another figure.
Lukka looked at it and was so frightened that his hair stood on end.
Behind Gavin, slowly walking through the corridor at the gate, it turned out to be a headless body!
Ollie raised her greatsword alertly, and Phil picked up two bottles.
"What are you going to do, don't be impulsive!" Gavin stopped in the middle of the hallway, shivering as he stood there. It has been less than an hour since the master met these two humans, and they have become so violent, it seems that these two guys are really poisonous.
The headless figure behind him didn't stop, still striding forward, the figure passed through Gavin's body and into the confines of the hall.
"You're going to scare people to death, aren't you? What kind of headless horseman are you?" Lukka retracted his staff and shouted at Daniel in front of him.
"What's wrong with me?" Daniel looked back in confusion.
The corridor leading from the hall to the doorway is quite tall in the building specifications of the goblin, and the roof is about one meter eight from the ground, although it is still not enough for normal humans to pass, and the height of minors like goblins and Phil is still unimpeded.
Daniel is a ghost, a two-meter-tall ghost rider to be exact. He followed Gavin down the hallway, his head just above the ceiling. The hallway was much darker than the hall, and from Luca's point of view, it was a headless corpse floating by.
"Didn't I say you, Captain, you've been my ghost lieutenant for more than two years, how can I still be scared?" Daniel didn't feel guilty at all.
"Next time, please put your headband on. Luca said.
"I've always carried it, and I wasn't beheaded," said Daniel, "and if that's the case, you'll be scared to death the first time you see me, right?"
"I was scared to death by you...... Gavin shuddered.
"Don't shake either. Lukka shoved him in front of Phil.
"Your 'master'—" he couldn't help but laugh at those two words, "—you're going to offer some more healing potions, you go to him and talk to him." ”
"That's great!" said Gavin, who immediately forgot all about the fright.
Lukka turned to Daniel, "Did you receive that letter I wrote?"
Daniel nodded: "yes, otherwise, I really don't know how to find here." Is there something new about calling me down in such a hurry?
"We're really going to find bugs, but we won't take you there. Phil grimaced.
"Why, isn't my fighting power better than this little ghost?" Daniel looked at Lukka in disappointment.
