When the march resumed, an order from Mage Krautz was communicated to all of the Chasseur's mages - in the event of exceptional circumstances, the current magical silence could be broken and the use of Stream and below could be allowed to avoid unnecessary casualties.

The meaning of this command can be said to be very clear.

Master Clutez apparently agrees that a normal "Spider on the Road" is not enough to threaten a moving army, but in the current situation, he must consider the worst-case scenario.

The rustle of snow in the forest as it was trampled was heard again.

Shug was responsible for the logistics and safety of the medical staff, so he and Verin stayed near the team of the alchemists such as Mayer, which led to the arrival of the Ernst family agents who had been ordered by the Ernst family to enter the Fifth Chasseur as soldiers.

These guys are all the elite of the Wattle soldiers, and with the financial and resource support of the Ernst family, most of them have also taken some expensive potions, so they are better at fighting and reflexing than ordinary soldiers.

The previous officers weren't too concerned about what the hunters called "monsters", but unlike Xiuge, he could already feel the slight changes taking place within his metal discs.

In the minds of the Van Grace, the Walking Spider is a notorious magical creature.

Their appearance resembles giant tarantulas, and they are extremely ferocious forest predators, but what really makes all of this is their strange magical ability, they can use their magic to conceal their body and breath to a certain extent, and move in situations that are difficult to catch with the naked eye and magical perception, so its whereabouts are simply elusive to ordinary people, and in many early cases of walking spiders attacking human villages, the victims were completely unable to understand the behavior patterns of this monster.

They mistakenly believe that these giant spiders can use magic to pass through obstacles such as walls, doors and windows, and attack and kill people in the house, which is where the word "walk" comes from.

If such a magical creature does change because of the Abyssal Descendants or something, it will definitely become even more bizarre and deadly.

Therefore, he immediately dragged Verin to Meyer's side and asked him to help him continue translating.

"What the hell is going on with that walking spider? How many of you did it kill?"

"There were nineteen of us, plus two domesticated short-tailed wolves, and now we're only six!"

Under Meyer's translation, the hunters described their experiences in fits and starts.

"Crawling spiders' nests are easy to find, they don't weave webs, but they dig burrows, and they don't go too deep...... And trained short-tailed wolves are familiar with their scent, and they can find their traces at once."

The Black Forest hunter in the lead said, "At first, we thought we had found a very large spider, because we first found an abandoned cave that was twice the size of a normal spider...... So everyone was very excited, and they tracked it down into the depths of the Black Forest."

….

"But gradually, we realized that something was not quite right, because its trail became obvious and it continued to ...... In winter, even if the walking spiders wake up, they will immediately find a way to dig a hole, because they simply can't withstand the cold for a long time!"

At this point, a look of horror appeared on the hunters' faces: "But by then, it was too late, and our domesticated bobtails began to try to escape, and for this they even bit two of us, and then we saw the trees in the distance begin to shake, and something is approaching us, but we can't see its footprints at all."

As he spoke, the hunter looked up at the top of the nearby trees, "But we can hear it beating between the trees!"

"You mean, the spider is jumping on the tree? Do you see it?"

"I can't see it!"

The hunter shook his head busily, "That monster is

None of the magic emerged from the hunt for our companions, it was a transparent devil! We shot into the air, but couldn't hit at all...... We can even see people being impaled by something and lifted into the air......

Listening to Mayer's translated words, everyone became alert.

And Xiuge couldn't help but look up at the nearby trees, this kind of place is indeed very easy to become a blind spot, especially now that it is still snowing, the ground situation in the woodland is very complicated, if you want not to fall or sprain, you must always watch your feet.

Just as Shuge had expected, the army had only been marching for a few moments before the march suddenly stopped.

And with the order, all the members of the hunting regiment entered a state of alert, they were on guard, raised their revolver rifles and began to aim in the direction of possible enemies nearby, while Xiug hid next to two fallen trees, he also took out his revolver rifle, and the magic perception began to be released to a limited extent, and Wei Lin leaned next to him, a magic pendulum had fallen from between her palms, and was gently shaking at a specific frequency.

This is clearly not a normal vigilance order.

Because when the order was delivered, neither the direction of the enemy, nor the identity and number of the enemy were mentioned, the officers only told the soldiers to be on guard, but no one knew what they were guarding.

It wasn't long before Xiuge saw someone in the distance coming with a stretcher.

When they came closer, Shug saw several soldiers lying on these stretchers, all of whom were members of the volunteer assault squads.

And now, these people, whether they were ordinary soldiers or military mages, or mountain elves who excelled in the dense forest, had suffered terrible wounds, and the bodies of these soldiers had been pierced, some in the abdomen, some in the shoulders and thighs.

Meyer was the first to be beside the wounded, and Shug immediately heard a long sigh from Meyer, a young soldier on the stretcher had been dead for a long time, his chest had been mortally wounded, and although the mage had used emergency healing magic on him for the first time, the healing magic could not restore his pierced chest.

….

One of the captured Teresa hunters cried out in fear, as Hug could already distinguish the word "spider" in Terea from the previous conversation, and the guy seemed to be repeating "It's a spider!" Or "There are spiders!" Something like that.

The alchemists immediately got busy, and after the training in the field hospital, the female students who were originally young were now able to face this injury calmly, and soon, the treatment of the injury was basically completed, and the mountain elf soldier who was slightly injured among them told everyone about their experience - they were attacked by a sudden and terrible attack in the northeast direction of the large team, and several people were killed on the spot, and they were unable to catch the attacker at all!

"In order to keep it quiet and hidden, we didn't shoot......

The wounded mage explained as he endured the pain, he was wearing a sturdy Demon Strangling Silver armor that had now had a very noticeable dent, as if it had been hit by a vehicle.

"When I was attacked, I used lethal magic in the general direction, and it seemed to hit something, but I really didn't have time to check."

Shug came to his side and placed his hand on the silver armor that had been removed by the doctors, the shadow of the messenger in the mirror flashed in his palm, and with his incomparably keen perception, Shug managed to catch an aura similar to that of the ancient creations in the dent.

So he turned his head and asked, "Before the attack, could you feel the magic move?"

"Nope!"

The mage shook his head, "It wasn't until the moment the attack was launched that the magic power anomaly appeared, it was too weird."

Wei Lin keenly caught the grim look on Shoge's face, and she took the initiative to ask, "Any suggestions?"

"The advice is ...... We'd better shrink the formation further and let all the assault squads outside

It's all back."

Shug gently pressed the armor that should have been extremely strong, "It's a worse situation, don't let our soldiers have any more unnecessary casualties."

……

Every qualified officer should know who to turn to when confronted with magical problems.

Alfred is the best of the officers, and he has always done a great job of this.

Questions about military magic can be asked of Klautz.

For more academic, questions about rituals can be asked of Willin.

Who should I ask about the questions that are beyond ordinary knowledge and are most likely related to the Black Sun Association?

The Much family was now very close to the Wattle royal family, so before the Fifth Chasseur left Bolden, Alfred got the relevant answers from the royal family and the Ernst family - if you have such a question, ask Hug Ernst directly.

Of course, in this process, it is necessary to pull in other mages.

After all, with Xiuge's qualifications, status, and title, it was not enough for him to directly influence the decision-making of a large team, even if he had the endorsement of Princess Sophia and Marshal Zeke, this kind of thing would definitely not happen.

Of course, Schug himself knew this, so he was very frank about the information he had obtained and the judgment he had reached with Klautz and Alfred.

….

"The things that attacked the assault team left traces of their own power on the Silver Armor...... I'm sure its power bears a resemblance to the monsters in Salem."

Klautz immediately grasped the point: "Similar, you say?"

"Yes, a certain amount has changed...... Its power has become more stable, perhaps due to some special change in combination with the Wandering Spider itself."

Alfred frowned and asked, "You mean, there are some monsters who escaped from the city of Salem and came to this forest and bonded with the walking spiders here?"

"Chances are."

Shug nodded, "And it seems that its fundamental needs and desires have not changed now, and it is still thirsting to hunt more prey and use it to 'fill itself.'"

"Is it possible to circumvent it?"

"Personally, I don't think it's possible."

Xiug shook his head: "This monster is too greedy, their thirst for their own growth has no limit, and if it really escaped from the city of Selen, then it has probably gained a lot of knowledge belonging to human beings before, and the army is probably not a foreign concept to it."

Alfred couldn't help but scold, "Fuck, why don't you eat the Derans?"

Wei Lin shook her head, "Probably because there is a legal committee station nearby, these monsters know the power of magic very well, and it shouldn't dare to attack the gathering place of mages easily."

In response, Master Klautz quickly came to the conclusion: "If you can't avoid it, you have to find a way to expel or destroy it...... No matter how dangerous a magical creature may be, it should not be an obstacle to the army's movement."

As he spoke, his gaze had already drifted towards Xiuge.

"Of course there is."

Shug didn't mind the hints, and he said bluntly, "Judging from what happened to the Derand hunters and our soldiers, this 'walking spider, apparently actively hunting, is enough to attract it and throw a suitable' bait."

"Bait? Do you mean we need to release a few squads for it to hunt?"

"Not to let it hunt, but to lure it in turn and hunt it."

Xiuge said calmly, "Although this spider will most likely not attack our large team, it is a great threat to the soldiers in the fringe areas, as well as our logistics and medical personnel...... And most importantly, we can't treat it the way it treats a beast, and if it allows it to continue to learn about the military, it may bring more variables."

"In other words, your advice is to hunt them down as soon as possible?"

"To be precise, to get rid of it before it actually interferes with our marching objectives."

Shuge gave his answer very calmly and calmly, and then he raised his hand and pointed at himself in the eyes of everyone, "I have been in contact with these monsters in the city of Selen, they should still have some memories of me, and I am a stream level mage, so it seems that I will be easier to deal with, so what do you think, how about I be used as bait?"

"Hiss......"

Alfred bared his teeth.

He admits that Schug's proposal is very tempting and feasible......

But the question is, if something happens to this guy because of such a proposal, will he be unlucky?

Take a temporary leave of absence...... I don't know why my body keeps exploding, and it makes me numb
