Chapter 7: Spider Cave
"Phew!"
Advance through a forest full of spider silk.
Lindsay's mood gradually became irritable, and she even had the urge to burn everything in front of her with a fire.
Ordinary fifth-stage awakened people walking here, I'm afraid they have to be struggling, always be careful.
After all, there are countless difficulties here, both in terms of the environment and the enemy.
But that's not what worries Lindsay.
He's not in any danger here, and the Spider Fear Breaker is the equivalent of a dispel aura that allows him to wander around here.
The real problem is.
The spider is gone, but the webs won't disappear out of thin air!
After only a few minutes of walking here, Lindsay was covered in a headache of white spider silk.
And that's not even the most annoying.
A whole cobweb was wrapped around her body, and it just made it a little troublesome for Lindsay to move.
But the spider silk that floats independently in the forest and is almost impossible to see at night can easily hit Lindsay's mouth or brain.
This sensitive location, if pasted on a whole cobweb.
Tear it off and throw it away.
But this single spider silk is itchy and fine, sticky, and it is more difficult to take it down, which makes people uncomfortable!
Fortunately, this kind of problem didn't bother Lindsay for long.
About half an hour later, he found something different on the map.
Ahead, under a cocooned oak of oak, covered with a thick layer of white cobwebs.
This scene could have been seen everywhere in the forest.
But what is interesting is that there is not solid ground under the cobwebs, but a hollow!
"That's what it says about treasure?"
Lindsey nodded vigorously, feeling like she had found the right place.
The corrupt poisonous spider is very good at covering the treasure spot, but this simple physical structure can't fool Lindsay's skills at all.
Bang!
Lindsay rushed up in two steps, and then was stopped.
In order to conceal the hollows underground, the cobwebs here are much thicker than elsewhere.
The Corrupt Spider is a dangerous beast that can hunt large animals.
After their silk threads are enriched to this extent, their toughness is also beyond imagination!
The treasure was in front of him, and Lindsay didn't bother to cut it with a knife.
He directly took out the ice badger mace, stretched it forward, and the sharp protrusions on the mace immediately cut the cobweb, and then wrapped a large white patch around it.
It didn't take long for Lindsey to have a giant marshmallow in her hand.
And on the ground in front of him, a dark hole also appeared, and the rancid smell went straight into the nostrils.
"You can't force the monster to be hygienic."
Lindsay, holding a torch in one hand and covering her nose with the other, groped her way into the hole.
There are a lot of messy white bones and tattered skins in the cave.
This is apparently the kitchen waste left behind by the spiders after eating, and this is where the smell from the outside comes from.
Lindsey continued to go deeper.
Finally, at the end of the cavern, he found a place that was fairly clean.
And the treasure that the corrupt spider said was placed here.
First of all, there are a pile of coins scattered around the corner, among which there are many coarse silver coins and coarse copper coins, and the most valuable gold coins are only two, both of which are popular currencies in hidden frontiers, and the origin can be imagined.
On the other side of the coin, there are some messy items.
Everything from rusty brass belt buckles to black wide-brimmed hats with a hole in them.
“……”
Lindsay's face grew darker and darker.
He couldn't help but pick up his hat and put it on his head, and said a witty remark full of resentment:
"I'm a spider who likes to wear hats."
"This is baby, my baby!"
“……”
Lindsey also felt stupid and threw away her hat.
Corrupt poisonous spiders definitely don't need human coins, and the accumulation of coins most likely means that this is the treasure in the other party's mouth.
But I don't know because spiders have different concepts than humans.
Or the other party itself is deceiving themselves.
In Lindsay's eyes anyway, these things can't be called treasures in any way.
Boom!
At that moment, Lindsay pulled out a sheathed dagger from the pile of garbage.
This dagger does not possess any essentia-related reactions, nor does it have any overt supernatural qualities.
But what's special is that Lindsay feels a little heavy!
"What are you kidding, my strength is 19 points?"
The power of 19 points is already an exaggerated attribute that surpasses that of mortals, and the dagger that can make Lindsay feel heavy is probably much heavier than gold!
[Weapon/Material: Chalky Iron Dagger]
[A dagger with extremely high weight and hardness, almost difficult to break; When a breakage occurs, it itself will be repaired automatically at a slow rate; It can also be used as a material to make other props. 】
[A dagger of rare material, made of chalky iron that only exists in the depths of the earth, and has a high value.] 】
"There's a treasure!"
Lindsay was surprised and delighted, and changed her face faster than she could turn a book.
Of course, he was happy that this trip was not in vain and he got a special item.
The surprise lies in where this thing comes from.
The value is high, the material is rare, and it only exists in the depths of the earth.
These narratives are piled up.
Even if this weapon does not contain any essentia properties, it is enough to make people think that it has an extraordinary origin.
Lindsey tried to place the chalky iron dagger on the workbench.
[1 Chalky Tantalum Iron Dagger + 1 Titanium Alloy + 1 High-grade Gemstone Powder + 1 High-grade Metal = Incorruptible Blade]
"Blades that don't break!"
Looking at the synthesis formula in front of her, Lindsay inexplicably thought of the former expeditionary team.
An idea popped up like that.
This dagger may have been accidentally left behind by the expedition team while passing through the world of Montenegro, and was finally collected here by the corrupt poisonous spider for some special reasons.
Lindsey didn't dwell too hard.
He simply accepted the surprise, and then sorted out the so-called treasure spot.
In the end, Lindsay took the coin and the dagger in his hand.
“……”
"Spiders, I hate spider webs!"
Amid a loud grumble, Lindsay began to split the nets.
The Corrupt Spider's territory covers the entire mountainous area, but Lindsay's movement speed should not be underestimated.
After doing everything you can through this cobweb-covered area.
When I returned to the somewhat normal mountainous forest area, the speed of progress increased sharply.
“……”
Lindsay glanced back at the pitch-black forest.
He said goodbye to the trembling spiders in the forest almost at the same time:
"Farewell!"
Lindsay simply didn't want to rest in such a place.
The next step is to move forward with a complete mind.
After a long night's trek, he finally crossed the mountain range and came to the other side of the mountain forested area.
At this time, the first rays of dawn pierced through the gaps in the clouds and fell right on Lindsay's face. A deep blue trailed the darkness in the air, the stars still dotted it, a faint glow, and a mist rose between the valleys.
Under the light of the rising sun.
Lindsay did not see Montenegro, nor did she see the terrible enemy.
But the vast, all-encompassing earth stretches from the horizon to the end of the horizon until it disappears into the diffuse scattering of light.
“……”
For a moment, Lindsay was speechless and silent.
The majestic and magnificent natural scenery in front of him told him only one thing.
From climbing the vines to the spider mountain forest in front of you, it is just a short beginning.
What I have to cross is a long journey of a whole world!
There's still a long way to go!
