Chapter 16: Octopus Advancement

Harrison's gaze was locked on the passage, he didn't notice the piece of iron above his head, but even if he did, he wouldn't have paid attention to it at this time.

He cautiously led the way ahead and slowly walked into the passage.

Sean was deliberately one step behind, and as he passed through the passage, he reached out with lightning and pulled out the piece of iron embedded in the top of the passage.

His movements are extremely fast, not to mention Harrison in front of him, even if he follows Sean, but if he doesn't pay attention, he may not be able to catch his movements.

In this way, Sean didn't know it, and unknowingly received the piece of iron into his hands.

After walking more than ten meters, Harrison lowered his voice, but still said excitedly: "Sean, we found it." ”

Sean looked up and saw that at the end of the passage was a large deep cavern, which was so dim, cool and damp, that there was no light shining from above. But it wasn't bleak in the cave, for a dozen or so clusters of eerie green glow were slowly circling around the chamber.

Glancing at the excited and trembling Harrison beside him, Sean immediately understood that this was the Spider King's soul body.

However, this thing is different from the spiritual objects that Sean saw on those shamans, they are full of an eerie energy, and the slightest closer to it makes people feel creepy.

Sean took a deep breath, maybe this is the true face of the so-called soul body, and only after merging with the orc shamans can they play their real role in the sun.

Harrison straightened up slightly, pulled out the Orb, and was about to enter the cavern.

Sean suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and he reached out and grabbed Harrison.

Harrison was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Sean in surprise, his eyes full of questions.

Sean shook his head slightly, pulling him back a step, and then exuded spiritual power and explored in an omniscient way.

Suddenly, Sean's face changed greatly, because when he was fully inducted, he had already discovered that there were four spiders lurking in the underground of this cave. And the bodies of these four spiders are not short green hairs, but some strange colors of burnt black and red.

Although he didn't know what the difference between these spiders and the green-haired spiders was, Sean was sure that the life force and combat power of these guys would definitely surpass that of ordinary green-haired spiders.

"What's going on?" Harrison asked quietly, as he seemed to sense the tension around him.

Sean pointed to the ground and said, "There's something down there." ”

"What's that?"

Before Sean could answer, the floor in the cave began to churn, and four of them were much smaller than normal green spiders, only the size of a basin, with short black and red hair.

As soon as Harrison saw these spiders, his face suddenly became bloodless, and he pulled Sean and fled without saying a word.

Sean asked hurriedly, "What's that?"

"That's the treading red-haired spider, it's the evolution of the green-haired spider, this is a second-level magical beast. Harrison was as fast as Sean's escape.

Sean shook his head secretly, he couldn't imagine that this spider was really strange, the higher the level, the smaller the size. It seems that there is no such thing as an absolute in any matter.

There was a slight creeping sound of animals crawling from behind him, and Harrison's speed suddenly increased by three points when it was impossible to be faster. Under the mortal threat of reptiles, although this werewolf shaman has not exercised his broadcasting body, his potential is still 200% stimulated.

Finally they returned to the hole they had just entered.

As soon as the two of them arrived, Harrison's footsteps stopped, and he first threw Sean hard and pressed him into the water, and then he jumped off.

At the moment when he jumped down, a white light appeared on his body, and the octopus appeared again.

In the azure water, the octopus's soul body absorbed enough energy to come out, and the two tentacles tightly wrapped the two of them, and the other six tentacles moved as if they were convulsive, and the performance that was close to the limit also exerted a huge amount of energy, and they cut a wave at the bottom of the lake like an arrow from the string, and fled hastily into the distance.

However, the four evolved red-haired spiders refused to let go of the two of them, only to see that the entrance of the cave suddenly collapsed, and those red-haired spiders had already entered the bottom of the water.

If it is a green spider, although they are large, they can't dive into the water at all because there is too much air in their body, but red spiders are different, their body size is only the size of a basin, and they seem to be free to control their own volume, so sinking to the bottom is not a difficult task for them.

And as soon as they reached the bottom of the water, these red-haired spiders immediately tracked down like crazy, as if they had a deep hatred with Sean and others, and would rather die.

In fact, at the moment when Harrison let Sean enter the water first, he had truly gotten Sean's friendship.

The fate and emotions between people are different, for Sean, if you want to calculate him, then you will naturally get his revenge, and those who really regard him as a friend will also get his corresponding friendship.

It was because when those red-haired spiders caught up, Sean had already decided to make a move, and for this werewolf shaman who could still think of others first at a critical juncture, what was the need for him to hide his identity?

However, Harrison moved faster than him, and even managed the octopus to the surface.

As soon as Harrison showed his head, he immediately hugged the big octopus's head tightly, and shouted at the same time, "Sean, hold its head, it can swim faster on all eight legs." ”

Sean smiled helplessly, hugged him, and asked, "Harrison, what are you going to do?"

"It's miserable. Harrison smiled bitterly: "Last time it was the green-haired spider who chased me, but this time it was even more powerful, it was the red-haired spider." ”

In just a few words, the surface of the lake suddenly jumped, and the four red-haired spiders had already floated from the bottom of the lake, their bodies expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in an instant they had become about the size of ordinary green-haired spiders. At the same time, their speed is getting faster and faster, and it seems that these spiders have the word treading water in their names, and they are not called in vain.

Seeing that these spiders seemed to be getting closer and closer, Sean suddenly asked, "Harrison, the last time it was the green spider who chased you, why didn't you dive into the water?"

"The last time I ran out of exhalation and dived into the water, were you going to suffocate me?" exclaimed Harrison angrily, he couldn't figure out why Sean was asking such an unrelated thing at such a critical juncture.

Sean smiled dumbly and said, "Okay, since we can't dive into the water, then let's fly." ”

"Fly?" Harrison's big eyes flashed with an inexplicable light, and there was an indescribable hint in his eyes when he looked at Sean, probably scolding in his heart that this guy was crazy because of too much pressure?

Sean didn't explain, let go of the arm holding the octopus's big head, grabbed Harrison's shoulder, and with the use of the wind magic, the two of them flew towards the sky.

The moment Harrison left the water, the octopus disappeared again, turning into a white point of light and burrowing into Harrison's body.

"Ah......h

A deafening scream suddenly erupted from mid-air, like killing a pig or a dog, terrible and terrifying, chilling.

Sean's hands shook, and he narrowly missed the guy who made the super noise.

As if sensing the change in Sean's arm, Harrison, who was already in mid-air, desperately hugged Sean's thigh with his backhand and shouted, "Dead, dead, don't let go......"

Sean's body shook in mid-air, almost losing his balance.

Wind Soaring is nothing more than a spell that controls the flow of air, with the help of a powerful airflow ability that allows the body to rise into the air and move quickly. But once the body loses its balance, then the results can be imagined.

In the past, Milician used to disable Sean's wind movement attached to the armor by destroying the air flow in the air, and although Harrison did not mean it, he did it as lethal as he changed the direction of the air flow.

Sean's face changed drastically, although he had an urge in his heart to kick the werewolf shaman down, but in fact, he had to do a lot of effort to regain his balance in mid-air.

"Harrison, don't move. Sean exclaimed angrily, "Do you really want to die?"

"No......," Harrison said with a sad face, "I'm afraid of heights, don't fly." ”

Sean only felt a dizziness in his head, it turned out that he was flying with a person who was afraid of heights, no wonder it would cause such a bad result.

"It's fine. Sean comforted loudly, "I'm flying very steadily." ”

"Giggle......

A series of strange voices came from below, and Sean looked down to see that the werewolf shaman who was waving in the wind was pale and was fighting with his upper and lower teeth, unable to even say a word.

But fortunately, Harrison has never relaxed in the slightest while holding Sean's thighs, and there is a tendency to get tighter and tighter.

Sean was glad in his heart, fortunately this guy was not holding his neck, otherwise he wouldn't have to wait for the red-haired spider below to catch up, and he would have been strangled to death by him first.

※※※※※※※

Although he brought a person, the speed of flying in the air was still much faster than in the water.

However, those red-haired spiders didn't know what nerves they had, and they were still chasing after them below, as if they had taken away the most precious treasure, so they didn't let go.

Sean's heart moved, and he remembered the piece of iron that he had taken down from the mouth of the passage, could it be that these spiders were tracking this thing?

Soon, Sean had come to a small oasis closest to the spider oasis, the area of this oasis was not large, only more than twenty square meters, and it was clear in the air, except for some pale cyan vegetation, there were no other creatures on it.

With a slight light in his eyes, Sean and Harrison finally stopped at this ultra-small oasis.

Harrison, who had been blowing in the middle of the sky, was already foaming at the mouth and delirious, but he still remembered one thing firmly, holding Sean with both hands, and refused to let go.

Sean sighed helplessly and waited for a long time.

A moment later, the four red spiders had already caught up, but as soon as they landed in the oasis, an aura of death enveloped them.

The Hazy Technique, the Wind Blade Technique, and the Swift Blade Technique, just such a small combination of three magic combinations in a chain attack, easily solved the four red-haired spiders.

In the past, when Sean was an eighth-level apprentice, he was already able to read and deal with hordes of second-level demonic beasts, but now he already has the strength of a formal magician, not to mention only four second-level red-haired spiders, even if he is fighting against third-level demonic beasts, or fourth-level demonic beasts that have just been promoted, he will definitely not show weakness.

Instead, he suddenly met a person with a severe fear of heights like Harrison in the air, which almost made him a big fool.

Gently patting Harrison's face, Sean slowed down his voice and said word by word, "We're safe." ”

His words seemed to have a strong suggestive effect, and Harrison was stunned for a moment, and then slowly relaxed. He raised his head and glanced around, finally focusing on the four dead red-haired spiders.

Suddenly, he let go of Sean's thighs, jumped up, and shouted, "You're a magician......"

Sean smiled and nodded, "Yes, I'm a magician." ”

Harrison twitched his face and asked indignantly, "Why didn't you tell me?"

Sean secretly screamed ashamed in his heart, but he shrugged his shoulders and said, "You didn't ask me." ”

"But as you said, you're an archer. ”

"Yes, I'm a magician, but I'm also an archer. Sean pointed to the magic bow on his body and said, "Don't forget, I killed those two green-haired spiders with arrows before." ”

Harrison was speechless, and although he thought Sean's words were a little strange, he didn't lie. It's just that the temper of the magician is really weird, and there are even magicians who like bows and arrows.

Harrison gasped and walked abruptly towards the spiders.

Sean was stunned and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Of course it's skinning and cramping. Harrison said excitedly: "This is a second-level demonic beast, alas, their magic cores and torsos can come in handy." ”

"It's fine. Sean nodded and said, "You deal with these things, I'll go again and bring those Spider King soul bodies." ”

"Okay. Harrison said briskly: "You can go by yourself, I won't drag you down, but be careful, don't forget that the spider king in that lair is an authentic third-level demonic beast." ”

Sean smiled slightly, but his smile was full of confidence.

Even if the Spider King is a third-level demonic beast, a third-level demonic beast like this must be the weakest of the same level of demonic beasts. With Sean's current abilities and equipment, it is not difficult to destroy this spider nest completely.

After performing the Wind Flying Technique, Sean flew off into the distance as fast as possible, while Harrison stayed where he was, and was enthusiastic about sorting out the carcass of the red-haired spider.

For a low-level shaman like him, the corpses of four second-level demonic beasts were already a lot of wealth, and they couldn't be wasted.

Sean quickly returned to his place, but instead of diving into the water immediately, he took out the piece of iron he had found in the passage.

After concentrating his mental strength and exploring, Sean's face changed a few times, but a pair of eyes gradually lit up.

This piece of iron is a common record for magicians, and it can be used to record magic, but it can also be used to record certain things.

And at this moment, Sean saw some records of the master before the book was recorded.

It records the experience of a magician studying green spiders in Lake Estonco for decades, and when Sean read some of the records in it, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.

It turns out that in any era, in any world, there are such scientists who have a strong interest in wild animals.

This magician named Zoe is undoubtedly a replica of those wildlife scholars on the earth in the 21st century who have spent more than 20 years in Africa and other places without regrets.

It's just that this Zoe mage is only interested in spiders.

After learning magic and reaching the realm of a great magician, he knew that there was no hope of going further in his life, so he turned the rest of his life to studying spiders.

In the remaining decades of his life, he has studied the wild monster of the green spider very thoroughly.

Sean clearly remembered that even Harrison's understanding of the green-haired spider was found in the information left by Grand Magician Zoe.

And in this book, there are not only many contents that have been circulated, but also a secret that the world has not yet known to the world that is discovered by a great magician Zoe in his later years on the body of the green hairy spider.

Looking at some of the records on this, even with Sean's concentration, he couldn't help but have his heart beat faster.

In particular, there was a description of some special functions of the corpse of the Green Spider King, which made him even more excited, and he couldn't wait to immediately test the content described in it on the spot.

After a moment's hesitation, Sean put the recording in his necklace, and after thinking about it for a moment, he finally dived into the water and swam towards the original place.

According to his original plan, on the way back, if he encountered strong resistance from the green spider, then he would simply summon the fire demon and turn this place upside down, at most destroy all the green spiders here.

But after reading the contents of the book, Sean's mind took a 180-degree turn. He moves cautiously and cautiously, not wanting any green-haired spiders to notice his invasion at all.

Fortunately, in the record left by Zoe, it is recorded that ordinary green-haired spiders will not go to the spider king's lair, and only when the previous spider king feels that the limit is approaching, he will bring a few red-haired spiders to the cemetery to wait for death.

Of course, the old green-haired spider king will designate a new spider king before the temporary, and once the new spider king is designated, he will devour a large number of companions, relying on this method to quickly improve the level, and give birth to a new third-level demonic beast in a short period of time.

Perhaps this is one of the main reasons why the green spider has not been able to reproduce on a large scale.

It is precisely because the previous generations of spider kings will take the initiative to go to the bottom of the spider king's lair, so as long as there is not much movement below, then the spider group living at the top is basically unlikely to come down.

Sure enough, this time Sean's process of entering the cave was very smooth, and there was no hindrance in the slightest.

He came to this spacious Spider King's lair, looked at the dozen or so eerie green lights floating in the air, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and took out the spirit bead given by Harrison.

A subtle wisp of spiritual power poured into it, and suddenly a dense mist emanated from this dark bead.

The mist seemed to sense the green light in the space, and it automatically surrounded those rays.

Those green rays were originally flying leisurely in the dark pits, but now they seemed irritable, and they began to scurry around, but in such a big place in the cave, the black mist emitted by the spirit beads soon filled every corner of the cave.

Perhaps because of the natural restraint, the green light, which was originally alive and kicking, suddenly became listless once it fell into the black mist.

Slowly, the speed at which they moved gradually decreased, and finally came to a complete standstill.

Sean slowly withdrew his spiritual power, and as his spiritual power weakened, the black mist emitted by the Spirit Bead slowly weakened.

When Sean had withdrawn all his spiritual power, the cave had completely returned to normal, but the dozen or so green soul bodies that were still floating just now had all been included in the spirit beads.

Sean took the spirit bead and observed it carefully, and sure enough, more than a dozen green light spots the size of rice grains appeared on it, which was particularly conspicuous on the dark spirit bead.

However, Sean knew that although the Spider King's soul body was also a type of Warcraft soul body, this was the worst-level and worst-powerful Warcraft soul body.

If you have to make a comparison, then the black python spirit on Nogodia's body should be on the same grade as them, so this thing will not generally be used as a fusion spirit of the orc shamans, but will become a devouring object for these main spirits, which will be used to increase the power and level of the main spirits.

According to the records of Grand Magician Zoe, the lifespan of the green-haired spider is not long, and a spider king only has a lifespan of about ten years under normal circumstances. In other words, as long as this nest exists, then a Spider King will enter here every ten years, although not every Spider King can successfully appear Monster soul body, but at least this place can also become a fixed soul body supply point.

And more importantly, Sean's real target is not these soul bodies, but the corpses of the green haired spider kings who have died and have been here for an unknown number of years.

With a movement, Sean landed lightly into the cave.

In addition to the gloomy and very challenging courage, there is also a chilling chill that seems to be able to completely freeze people's bone marrow at any time.

Sean admired the Great Magician Zoe very much, he had not been here for long, but he already had the idea of wanting to leave as soon as possible, and the Great Magician had been observing this environment for decades.

Not to mention how strong his great magician is, even this super courage and patience is enough to make Sean bow down.

But if he hadn't been so attentive, I'm afraid he might not have been able to discover this magical function of the Spider King's corpse.

This cave is not very big, but it is definitely not small, and you can feel a trace of cold air pouring into your body from all around.

Sean didn't dare to stay longer, he looked around, took out the bracelet that had not yet been modified, and included the corpses of the Spider King found on the ground one by one.

Although these spider kings are dead, their corpses do not decompose in any way, but instead shine with bright colors, giving people a lifelike feeling.

The green-haired spider is indeed a special race with a smaller size and higher rank. The red-haired spider that has evolved to the second level is the size of a basin, but after evolving to the third level of the spider king, its body has become only the size of an ordinary person's fist.

After Sean collected it, he took all the corpses of the Spider King without leaving them behind. Although he didn't count them, he also knew that the corpses of the spider king in the bracelet were at least about seventy or eighty.

If you count it according to the corpse of one spider king in ten years, then it means that there have been no other creatures here for seven or eight hundred years. And Sean's sweep also swept away the seven or eight hundred years of inventory in the Spider King's lair.

After doing all this, Sean turned and walked away.

Indeed, there are too few people like Zoe who are interested in spiders after all, and as long as they are normal people, they will definitely not like to stay in this spider king's lair, so once Sean finished his work, he left here without hesitation.

Returning the same way and diving out of the water, the same did not alarm the group above, and it can be regarded as a green hairy spider that retains this vein.

By the time Sean returned to the oasis to meet Harrison, the werewolf shaman had already cleaned up the four second-level monster red spiders.

On these four red-haired spiders, four second-level magic cores and some magic materials were obtained, especially forty spider legs, which were extremely sharp and hard, and could be of great use.

But for Sean, he really doesn't take these things seriously.

With his strength at the moment, of course, he can't deal with high-level demonic beasts, but if he wants to kill some second-level demonic beasts, it is just a matter of raising his hands.

It's no wonder that there were no official magicians at the trade fairs of the Duchy of Louis, because these things were no longer in the hearts of magicians.

Harrison saw that Sean refused, and he was not polite, so he took the magic core and magic materials in his pocket, but handed over those spider legs: "Sean, although these things are useless, they can be used as materials for bows and arrows, and if they are attached to magic, the power will definitely be not small." You're a magician, but you're also an archer, so you might as well play with it. ”

Sean's heart moved slightly, and he nodded in agreement, this thing is quite interesting if it is just for fun.

Then Sean took out the spirit bead and looked at the total sixteen Spider King soul bodies on it, Harrison's eyes suddenly lit up.

Sean smiled slightly, handed over the thing, and said, "Use it for you." ”

Harrison took it, found a dark corner, took out another spirit bead, and then put the two beads together, while the octopus spirit object on his body glowed brightly, as if it was driving away something.

A moment later, the eight Spider King souls had entered Harrison's Soul Orb.

He let out a long breath, handed over Sean's spirit beads, and said, "Sean, these are yours." ”

Sean looked at him quietly and said, "You gave me half of it, is it enough?"

In fact, this time Sean gained a lot in the Spider King's lair, especially the corpses of the seventy or eighty Spider King, each of which was far more valuable than the Spider King's soul body.

Now that Sean has taken the lion's share, it doesn't matter to him whether these soul bodies are or not.

Harrison laughed and said, "For our shaman's spiritual creatures, a type of Warcraft soul body can only devour a maximum of three, if there are more, it will have no effect. I took eight, and in addition to three for my own use, five were going to be given to the teacher, so it was enough. ”

Sean was not hypocritical, and put away the spirit beads.

Although he is not a shaman, there is a sleeping black lizard in his bracelet space. If you want to evolve this thing, then the Spider King's soul body and the feather of the volcanic red pheasant are both things that can come in handy.

Harrison happily held the spirit bead in his hand and said, "Sean, I'm going to find a place to improve the strength of the octopus, can you help me protect it?"

Sean said without hesitation, "Of course, do you have a good place?"

"Yes, I came across a few oases when I came, the environment is good, and there are no magical beasts to live in, so it is a good place to retreat and practice. ”

Sean smiled and nodded, allowing Harrison to lead him to an oasis of elegant surroundings.

It's not much distance from the shores of Lake Estonco, and of course it's impossible for any powerful beast to live there. However, there is a high chance of encountering a demon hunting team or a treasure hunting team. But with Sean, a man with the strength of a full-fledged magician, Harrison was of course not worried.

Under a backlit stone wall, Harrison released an octopus spirit object, this spirit body seemed to sense it, knowing that it was about to devour the soul body of other monsters, so it seemed to be unusually excited, and the white light points swirled around Harrison, sometimes turning into the shape of an octopus, looking impatient.

Sean watched from the sidelines in amazement, he promised to protect Harrison, and he also wanted to see how the other party upgraded his soul body.

It's just that he didn't expect that the octopus's soul body seemed to be as well-behaved as intelligent, could it be because of the relationship with the orc shaman?

While Sean was secretly guessing, Harrison had already pulled out the spirit beads.

Although the spiritual power of the orc shaman was nothing in Sean's eyes, it was more than enough to control the soul body of the Spider King in the spirit bead.

The three green points of light kept churning in the Detention Spirit Bead, and they also seemed to know that once they left the Detention Spirit Bead, it would be the time for the time to come, so the East Hiding Province refused to come out honestly. However, under Harrison's constant oppression, they still didn't hold on in the end, and were forced out of the spirit beads.

The moment these green points of light appeared outside, the octopus had already shown its original form, and the eight tentacles fiercely circled the three green points of light.

Then there was a tugging and tearing, completely breaking down the green dots of light and merging them into the octopus's body.

Sean watched quietly, he seemed to hear the miserable screams of the Spider King's soul body at the last moment, like a beast on the verge of death, even if this soul body was less intelligent, it also let out a heart-rending cry at this time.

With a shudder, Sean woke up from the gloomy wind.

His fists were already firmly clenched unconsciously, and his heart was surging and he couldn't help himself.

When he sensed the last sorrow of the Spider King's soul body, Sean felt a great feeling in his heart. These Spider King souls are already products of the death of the Monster.

They have no grudges against themselves and others, but because they can be used by humans and orcs, even if they hide in the dark underground, they still can't escape the fate of being wiped out in the end.

This is the classic law of the jungle.

At this moment, an endless thirst for power surged in his heart again.

He made the most solemn oath in his heart, no matter what, I can't become the soul body of the Spider King in the eyes of others.

Taking a deep breath, Sean's attention was drawn away from Harrison's.

At this moment, a strong white light had risen from Harrison's body, which was the anomaly produced by the octopus spirit object after devouring the soul body of the Spider King.

Harrison, who was in the white light, hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a crystal box, which he carefully opened, and held out the volcanic pheasant feather in the box with the most reverent attitude.

The light of the octopus spirit suddenly brightened, but Sean, who was not far away, seemed to hear a loud and excited cheer, and then eight tentacles stretched out together, rolling up the half-black feather.

Under Sean's surprised gaze, the feather also began to melt, and it became the nourishment of the octopus spirit like the soul body.

After getting the stimulation of this baby, the light points rising from the octopus's body became more and more intense, and Sean also sensed a huge energy fluctuation gushing out of its body.

This is the natural evolution of mutation, after absorbing a lot of energy.

Harrison's face showed a look of pain, because the octopus's soul body had merged with his soul, so he could clearly sense the intense pain caused by the excessive energy in the octopus's body.

However, according to Sean's observation on the side, this guy's face was also filled with a happy smile, and he was living in pain and happiness......

Suddenly, Sean turned his head and looked at the shore of the oasis, where a humble boat was rapidly approaching, clearly attracted by the light of the octopus.

(To be continued)
