Volume 1 Mountain Village 90: Blind Spider Emerald

"Who are you?"

The moment the unknown creature appeared in its original form in his field of vision, Fang Nuo's first reaction was to ask for help from the "history books" that he had just learned its function.

As long as you turn the book to the next page, the confusion in your heart can be answered, and of course, there is also the unexpected existence of "the secret of heaven cannot be revealed".

"Hey, wait a minuteβ€”" The owner of the faint voice waved his slender legsβ€”legs, were they? Panicked to stop the snow-white beast's behavior of "disrespecting other beasts", "I'll introduce myself!" ”

No, it sounds too tiredβ€”such thoughts were fleeting in Fangno's mind, and his body had already acted before his thoughts.

The history book is flipped to the next page, and the true identity of the unknown creature is revealed.

What a convenience, seeing this, Fang Nuo thought sincerely, but then his mood became depressed again:

Unfortunately, the book was too big for him to carry with him.

Otherwise, if you can carry it to the wild, won't you be able to "click where you can't click" and understand all the things that you didn't understand the meaning of existence in the past?

Of course, there is also the accident (resentment) of "the secret of heaven cannot be revealed".

"It turns out that you belong to the blind spider family."

The preconceived notion made Fang Nuo call every kind of demon beast "of a certain family" whenever he saw it, and in his cognition, there were very few demon beasts that were independent and did not have the protection of the family.

Unbeknownst to him, the faint voice quickly questioned:

"Family? No, no, from the first time I opened my eyes and saw the world, I was alone. ”

"I haven't seen any other 'me'." The strange mouth fetish and the thin, inexplicably cute-sounding voice made him feel like he was coquettish every time he said a word, which made Fang Nuo feel very awkward.

"Huh?" Fang Nuo suddenly realized something, "Can you understand what I'm saying?" ”

The blind spider, who looked like a forest greenstone, ignored his question, and let go of the leg that was clinging to the silver-blue rope, allowing it to flutter and fall lightly towards the ground.

Seeing this, Fang Nuo's heart seemed to be in his throat.

He was slightly relieved when he saw that the other party did not step on the pastry under the bridge, but landed precisely on the floor.

"What's wrong with you? Why don't you speak? ”

If the two of them were too far apart, ordinary hearing would not be able to pick up the slight sounds of the other.

So, Fang Nuo released his spiritual power and followed the movements of the little blind spider.

Suddenly, the guy catapulted off the ground, stretched out his long legs, and seemed to grow longer, reaching Fang Nuo's head at once, and giving him a slap.

Fang Nuo covered his forehead, not knowing where he had offended the other party, and the stunned in his heart once made him forget the fact that "he is fully capable of retaliating back".

Then he saw the other man return to the bridge with ease, and moved nimbly, first behind him, and then up from his tail, straight to his ear.

"Floppy, fluffy...... You're not human......"

"Sniff." The other party kept making a strange sound on a tuft of hair next to Fang Nuo's ear, "This smell is familiar, is it a newcomer who has appeared around here recently?" ”

"What a big ......"

"Hey, are you ......" Fang Nuo was afraid that the guy would get into his ears, lying on the bridge and not daring to move, "Can't you see anything?" ”

Can you understand the languages of other species?

"I can feel the light!" The little bug tugging at his ear replied with some annoyance, "Besides, I'm good at spiritual perception!" What do you look like, I can see clearly with my spiritual power! ”

Although his tone sounded excited, his voice was still very soft, and he didn't feel any momentum at all.

"Let go of my fur."

Fang Nuo's words also seemed to be gradually infected by the other party, and he added a not-so-obvious oral fetish.

"Why did you hit me just now?" He rubbed the part of his brain that had been snapped, "Although it doesn't hurt at all." ”

Encountering a demon beast that can communicate freely is already a thing that makes him feel happy, enough for him to take the initiative to let go of all the grievances between him and the other party, and talk to the other party freely and happily.

"You're a bad guy, you actually look down on me, I really don't want to pay attention to you."

"Is it because I'm questioning if you can understand me?" Fang Nuo reacted quickly, immediately figured out what was going on, and couldn't help but laugh, "This is because all the monsters I encountered before were like this. ”

"You," he finally mustered up the courage to reach out to his ear, "it's rare enough! ”

"Are you complimenting me?" A soft voice rang in my ears.

"Hmm!"

Fang Nuo, who wanted to answer "You can think so", decided that it was better not to continue to provoke the other party after thinking about it as appropriate.

As soon as the short reply ended, he listened to the other man babble again, explaining to him why he knew a foreign language.

It turned out that after this blind spider opened its spiritual intelligence, in addition to awakening the natural skills inherent in the bloodline of the race, it also unexpectedly comprehended another talent, that is, the miracle of "barrier-free communication".

"It's a passive talent, and I can't actively turn it off." The blind spider muttered softly, "Luckily, it didn't cause me too much trouble, so I'm lucky." ”

"Probably because you can't see things...... Fang Nuo paused for a moment, then corrected his words, "I can't see clearly." ”

"Isn't there a saying? It is said, 'God has closed a door for you, and it will surely open a window for you.'" ”

"Haha." The blind spider, who had become acquainted with him, let out a dry laugh, "In nature, more often than not, it should be 'another time and space closed a door for you, and also closed your window'. ”

"Why do you suddenly mention another plane?" Fang Nuo was puzzled.

"Isn't the other time and space the 'heavens'?" The blind spider is puzzled by his incomprehension.

"First time I've heard of ......," Fang Nuo muttered as he looked away.

"Hmph." The blind spider next to his ear jumped back onto the bridge, "It's my turn to introduce myself!" Take your eyes off that book! ”

Fang Nuo wanted to ask, "How do you know I'm reading", but after thinking about it, he felt that this question was raised too late, and it was estimated that the other party had listened to the sound of flipping through the book in a hidden corner for a long time before.

Moreover, the other party also said, "Good at spiritual perception".

Demon beasts with higher personalities can completely use spiritual power instead of eyes.

Thinking of this, he tentatively wrapped the "little bug" with his spiritual power, trying to understand the soul state in the other party's body.

Is it already crystallized? Or is it still in a state of loose gas, just like yourself?

"My name is 'Emerald'!" The other party didn't notice his small movements at all, and after pretending to clear his throat solemnly, he introduced himself in an inaudible voice.

"The witch's name?" Fang Nuo, who was accustomed to being surrounded by witch worshippers, subconsciously interjected.

Although the blind spider's eyes were small, Fang Nuo still had the feeling that the other party was glaring at him.

The originally calm soul power in his body, which did not respond no matter how unscrupulous Fang Nuo poked it, also exploded with Fang Nuo's unintentional words, and gave the snow-white little beast a "return" fiercely.

Fang Nuo suddenly recalled the past when he stepped on a wild hedgehog that appeared out of nowhere in the family hunting grounds.

Now, the hedgehog seemed to be stuck in his head, and he felt a tingling pain in his brain, which could not be calmed down.

"I'm allergic to humans!" The blind spider who called himself "Emerald" who lived in the witch's hut announced.

"Oh." Fang Nuo rubbed the hair on the top of his head and replied indifferently.

At the same time, he also made a slander about the environment of the hut, secretly complaining about why the witch didn't sweep the "emerald" out when she cleaned the hut.

"Why did you ...... just now" Fang Nuo remembered the other party's statement about the "Heavenly Machine", "You've been living here for a long time, haven't you?" Why did it suddenly appear? ”

"You're a new resident, and as a senior, I'll have to say hello to you." Emerald stretched out a long leg and swung it nonchalantly, "I thought you couldn't hear me." ”

When he said the second half of the sentence, he lowered his voice.

"I'm very good at using spiritual power to listen to the voices around me." Fang Nuo glanced at the little bugs cowering beside him, "It's like you'd use them to see." ”

"The soul power in your body has been somewhat solidified, like a cloud." Fang Nuo looked away, "You look like you're that small, but you're actually quite powerful. ”

"Are you complimenting me?"

"Sort of." Fang Nuo nodded.

He couldn't compare to the little worm that suddenly popped out, which made him feel both ashamed and eager to become stronger.

"Hey, hey."

Emerald stroked his head with his longest leg, and what he said next comforted Fang Nuo's wounded heart a little:

"After all, I've been roaming the world for years, and it wasn't until this house was built that I found an official place to stay."

"How many years?" Fang Nuo looked at the blind spider's body, and based on what he had learned, he deduced the lifespan of a small insect like him.

Unlike some insect-like monsters that die in the twilight of life and can't live long even if they are upgraded to demon beasts, spider-shaped monsters seem to be able to live for a relatively long time.

At least, ten years or so is fine.

"I'm thinking about some rude things when I see you, so take care of it." The blind spider on the side cleaned its long legs and admonished in a contemptuous tone, "Don't confuse me with those guys with separate cephalothorax and abdomen! ”

"Take the liberty of asking." Fang Nuo, who was recognized, hurriedly turned his head, and at the same time was glad that he had a lot of hair on his face, and he was able to hide his expression well, "You...... How long have you lived? ”

"It's been seven or eight years." He replied without raising his head, "I used to live in the woods." ”

Whew, my heart is balanced.

Fang Nuo thought subconsciously.

How can he, a little guy who has been in the Huangxian family for more than a year since he has been in memory, compare to a worm with seven or eight years of experience?

Subsequently, he hurriedly adjusted his mentality, thinking that a single insect could make the soul power tend to be solidified and continue to progress towards the "immortal beast" in less than ten years, and his body was much larger than the other party, and the promotion conditions seemed to be easier, how could he lag behind the other party?

He must achieve positive results within a time far less than the other party's cultivation before he can be considered worthy of the identity of "Yellow Immortal".

"Five years...... No, three years! I'm going to have my soul in the same state as the emerald for at least three years. ”

He secretly made up his mind.

Later, he listened to Emerald's recounts of the past, and learned about the story that had played out on the megalithic platform before the cottage was built.

Emerald has always kept himself away from other creatures and does not actively seek out his own kind, and it is because of this that he has been able to survive the activities of humans and orcs time and time again, and he has not lost a leg.

Since moving to this hut, he has only been able to communicate with the monsters who are imprisoned in books and have some abnormal mental conditions, or he can simply stay in a corner all day and live well without talking.

Unlike the witches, who were desperate to confide in, and the humans that Fang Nuo knew in the village who knew each other and would inexplicably talk to passing beasts, Emeralds were happy to live alone, but were afraid to chat with creatures who could see entities.

And this time he took the initiative to appear, only because he sensed the "strange atmosphere" a few days ago and became interested in the new "residents" who appeared in the hut, so he suddenly accosted Fang Nuo when he was concentrating on experimenting with the effect of the "history book".

Emerald, who was born with the ability to awaken "barrier-free communication", is accustomed to talking to himself while other beings cannot understand what he is saying.

And he didn't expect that the new "resident" turned out to be a "yellow immortal" with family skills similar to his own talent.

Moreover, the other party also used spiritual power to specialize hearing, and no matter how weak the voice was, it could be captured by him.
