"Uncle Anrui, what do you think might be the truth behind these things?"

When it comes to understanding the world, Lindsay is definitely not as good as Anrui in front of him.

So he didn't speculate, but directly asked for the opinions of his seniors, and An Rui would not hide anything from Lindsay on these matters.

He pointed to his empty left arm, and then spoke:

"When that demonic beast injected venom into my body, I also used this contact to confirm its degree of integration with the changes in the environment of the entire world, as well as the dominating power of the high-ranking demonic beasts in it."

"It's taking it and it's facilitating the process."

"In other words, in the path of the dragon beast's advancement to the eighth stage, that black spider is also one of the individuals that will be focused on, and it will even be extracted from essentia."

"The monsters of nature will never accept this kind of self-harming choice. Therefore, it is likely to be loyal to the dragon beast, and the act of leading its subordinates to the edge of the world is likely to be under the command of the dragon beast. ”

Hearing this, Lindsay also suddenly realized:

"I remember you said that that mountainous woodland is the only way to the world of Montenegro!"

"So this spider, most likely sent by the dragon beast, to confirm if there are any Awakened Ones here who are trying to break through the Black Mountain's monitors?"

An Rui nodded, confirming Lindsay's speculation:

"I think that's about it, too."

The anomalous appearance of the spider was explained, but Lindsay remained baffled by another question:

"Then why did they let these ordinary demonic beasts flee upwards?"

"Doesn't that make sense?"

“……”

Faced with this question, An Rui also shook his head silently.

To bring some minor trouble to the hidden frontier?

Or are these spiders simply not able to eat them, and they don't pay attention to these monsters at all?

None of this reason can explain the phenomenon at hand!

Because the result of this behavior is to give a hint to the hidden frontier: the world of Montenegro is changing!

The key to this is hard to guess.

……

The glow of the torches, swaying in the completely enclosed dark cave.

After eating the barbecue, Anrui fell into a deep sleep, and now he was in desperate need of rest after being seriously injured.

But Lindsay doesn't have such a spare.

He opened his taskbar first, and when he found that there were no new quests on it, he turned his attention to [Map].

Because of the effect of the [Treant Garland] before, those magical beasts in the outside world that were originally punctuated with red have now become neutral yellow markers.

Lindsey was even able to pass the information on the map.

Determine how many of these monsters continue to increase, and if they are playing the action of fleeing from the hidden frontier.

But soon, as expected.

The red punctuation symbolizing the Spider Army appears from the end of the map.

The furious spiders slaughtered the monsters on the surface of these lakes regardless of race, and the yellow neutral icon quickly disappeared.

At the same time, there are also some red dots climbing upwards along the vines.

“……”

Lindsay was a little nervous and didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

There are always spiders scurrying around the lake, trying to find something out of it.

But the surface of the mirror lake, eliminating the smell and traces of the two of them.

Coupled with the hidden passage that would not open without flames, these spiders ran around a little restlessly, but they could never find the Lindsey and the others who were already hiding inside the vines.

Under the light of the torches, time passed.

Through the transformation of information on the map, Lindsay knows that there are constantly demonic beasts appearing, and then being hunted by spiders.

I guess it's a full four or five hours.

The spiders gave up and retreated like a tide.

But Lindsay never dared to let her guard down.

It wasn't until another two hours had passed that other ordinary demonic beasts began to appear on the Mirror Lake that he breathed a sigh of relief.

It was at this very moment.

Lindsay felt something was wrong with her body.

"Wait, my power ......"

Realizing the change in herself, Lindsay hurriedly opened the properties panel.

Due to the fact that An Rui took him to pull out the seedlings and promote him by one level before, the [RPG] module has not changed.

But one after another encountered dangers, and Lindsey was also deeply involved.

At this moment, with the retreat of the spider, the whole event ended.

The experience points accumulated from the experience of this whole day are also beginning to be converted in earnest.

Lindsay's properties have a new look.

Constitution 15→17, Strength 12→13, Agility 13→15, Intelligence 9→10, Charisma 6→8.

In addition to the will, the basic attributes have been raised in all aspects!

And these are just basic abilities.

Among the skills that Lindsay himself learned, because an arrow seriously injured the fifth-stage demonic beast, the [Basic Archery] directly broke through the mastery and reached the master level, and the suffix of the original (rapid fire) was also changed - (Jungle Archer).

"Jungle Archer ......"

Lindsay muttered under her breath as she pulled her oak bow and bow from her bag.

Only then did he grasp the familiar bow and arrow, and he realized that he was different from the past. On the premise of maintaining his rapid fire ability, his ability to predict moving targets is now greatly improved.

And he had a vague hunch that this ability seemed to be able to play even better in the forest!

"Lindsay, what are you doing?"

At this moment, a question rang out from Lindsay's side.

He turned his head to see that it was Anrui who had just woken up from his slumber.

This fifth-stage awakened person has a much better face than when he fell asleep. Just looking at Lindsay's appearance of shooting arrows with a bow, An Rui thought that some danger was about to happen, so his expression was quite serious.

Lindsay hurriedly put away her weapon and explained:

"Nothing, we're safe now!"

"I'm just checking my weapon to see if it's been damaged in the battle!"

Anrui, who has just woken up, is very cautious:

"Lindsay, are you sure?"

Lindsay nodded vigorously:

"Really, I'm pretty sure!"

"And while you're resting, those spiders have already appeared outside the Mirror Lake, and they've left two hours ago."

Once again, Anrui confirmed:

"How long have they been on Mirror Lake?"

Lindsey elaborates:

"About five hours."

"Most of them hunted demonic beasts near Mirror Lake, and a small part climbed up the vines, but they never came down, and they should stay on it forever like those frozen demonic beasts."

When An Rui heard this, his hanging heart finally let go.

His rescue was because of Lindsay's specialness, and he naturally did not doubt Lindsay's ability at this moment.

Seeing Anrui relax, Lindsay thought of another question.

He looked at the warrior who was in good shape now, and asked:

"Uncle Anrui, I actually have one more question."

"Since these demonic beasts will be affected by the changes in the world, even to the point of freezing when the wind blows, what about the awakened people of the human race?"

An Rui smiled and shook his head:

"It's theoretically possible."

"But with this dragon beast's current state of recklessness and advancement, you don't need to worry about this aspect of the problem."
