Chapter 35: The Curious Spider Demon
With this conjecture in mind, Leo tentatively walked into the lair.
He had advanced about fifty meters, and just as he was wondering why he hadn't discovered it, the ground in front of him suddenly shook, and then a spider demon emerged from it.
In appearance, spiders and spiders are almost identical, except that they are much larger.
The head in front of him is one and a half meters tall and nearly two meters long. It's pitch black throughout, and the shell reflects the glow of metal. Eight thick claws clawed at the ground, sharp chelica teeth that made an unsettling "click" sound, apparently also a combat-type spider demon.
However, Leo soon discovers that the spider demon on the other side is not the same as the spider demon in the lair, it is larger in size, and its chelica are larger, and it seems to belong to the upper class.
The spider demon said in a voice like a log rubbing, "Humans from the upper plane, what do you want to do here?
Listening to the stiff lingua franca, Leo couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't open his mouth before, he was just thinking about how to communicate with the other party, but he didn't expect the other party to speak the lingua franca.
As for the upper plane in the other person's mouth, it must be the main material world. Spider liquid is a specialty of spider demons, with rich nutritional content and good integration, and it is used to prepare magic potions with excellent effect, and is one of the main export products of the college.
Knowing that the other party had misunderstood, Leo groaned slightly and replied, "That's right, I'm a human from the upper plane, but I'm not here to collect spider fluid, I want to see the Mother Empress." ”
As he spoke, he secretly cast a "charm spell".
After a few seconds, the magic message returned, as if it really didn't have any effect.
The next moment, the spider demon suddenly lowered himself and opened his chelica teeth completely. He made a gesture of imminent attack, and at the same time raised his voice and said, "Human, put away your magic!
The sudden change startled Leo, as it was the first time he had been discovered when he had cast the "Enchantment".
You must know that in order to reduce the possibility of detection, the design of the whole magic is not only to pursue the effect, but also to reduce the fluctuation of magic power as much as possible. Even if you are on guard, it is still difficult to detect.
It seems that it should be the spider demon who has a special perception of magic.
Leo didn't think about what Nayu was, and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, it's just my habit." ”
He replied with an oath, and in the current situation, he could only bet that the other party didn't know that he was casting a "charm technique".
The two rows of compound eyes on the spider demon's head stared at Leo, and slowly closed his chelica teeth: "Let's go." Human, the Mother Queen will not see you. Return to your fortress on the ground, where the underground belongs to Nayu. ”
At this time, Leo finally understood that Nayu should be the spider demon's name for himself. And judging from the current situation, they do not like humans, and even have obvious rejection.
This is not difficult to understand, after all, humans do not belong to this plane, even if they have conquered some spider demon kingdoms. But it is still an aggressor, and it is strange that it can be welcomed.
It's just that. Having finally found a nest, it is certainly unacceptable to leave Leo like this, which is almost equivalent to giving up the tryouts.
But what the hell are you going to do? Do you want to break in directly? There are so many spider demons inside, doing so is tantamount to suicide!
He was a little at a loss.
Looking at the spider-like appearance of the spider demon, Leo had an idea and said, "Of course I can leave." But before I do that, can you make a decision for the Empress?"
Hearing that Leo was leaving, the spider demon obviously relaxed his vigilance and replied without thinking, "I can't. ”
Sure enough, obedience is in their nature.
Get such an answer. But he happened to echo Leo's intentions, and hurriedly continued: "Then why did you say that the mother emperor would not see me?
In a word, the spider demon was speechless when he asked, his compound eyes turned back and forth, and his chelica teeth began to move again.
After a while, he said, "You're right, human. I can't take the place of the Mother Emperor, there is no Nayu who can take the place of the Mother, now I have to ask for instructions, you can wait here, but you are not allowed to go any further. ”
With that, the spider demon lifted a knotted foot and kept knocking on the ground.
Seizing this opportunity, Leo's head spun rapidly, looking for a way to impress the other party to let him in.
They don't like magic, so what do they like?
The story of a tenacious and resolute nation against invaders?
Are you kidding......
Identity determines ideology, he now belongs to Ravinton, but he is not the liberator of the spider demon, the strong deprive the weak, although it is full of blood and oppression, but it is always an eternal law. What's more, it's still in this world where strength is paramount.
A minute later, Leo still hadn't come up with a solution, but the ground next to the spider demon shook again, and in the blink of an eye, another spider demon came out.
However, this spider demon is different from the one next to it, its body size is much smaller, only more than half a meter high, one meter long, showing a dark purple color, the chelicera is not big, and the combat effectiveness is obviously not strong.
"Gollum!" the little spider demon said in a voice, as if asking.
When the Battle Spider Demon saw the little Spider Demon, he looked very frightened, and hurriedly made a series of "gurgling" sounds.
Leo could tell that they were probably talking in the spider demon's own language, and the little spider demon was still above the battle spider demon.
The two-headed spider demon "grunted" for a while, and the battle spider demon looked at Leo again, and then turned out to be short, burrowed into the hole and left.
"Uh, what's going on?" Leo felt a little puzzled.
"Don't worry about him, Wei Spider's head is not very good. The little spider demon said. Its voice was sharp, like glass colliding, very harsh.
But hearing such a sentence, Leo felt extremely surprised. Obviously, the little spider demon's attitude towards himself is completely different from that of the battle spider demon.
Without waiting for Leo to answer, the little spider demon continued, "Now you can tell me why you want to see the Empress?"
Leo's head spun quickly, and he decided to tell the truth: "I am a student at the Ravington Academy of Magic, and I am currently on a mission, and meeting the Mother Emperor is one of the steps of the mission. ”
"Oh, the mission, about what?" the little spider demon asked in a curious tone.
Leo grinned, the other party's attitude was good, but how could he answer such a question?
There was no way, so he had to briefly explain the situation of the Lordaeron Competition and the Academy Trials.
"Oh, so you are excellent?" the little spider demon looked at Leo's compound eyes, flashing with a strange light. (To be continued.) )
