Chapter 82: The Slate

As the saying goes, ants bite elephants to death, not to mention that this is not an ant, but a giant spider larger than a human.

No matter how thick Herag's shield and magic were, these spiders would consume him.

Listening to the sound of rustling behind him, Herag felt his scalp tingle, and increased his speed to the limit.

The scene around him receded quickly, and his steps were steady.

With the help of dark blue detection, he made sure that his position was stable at every step, and that he would not accidentally slip and fall.

But these spiders were faster than Khrag had imagined, and they crawled extremely fast on the ground.

At the same time, there are so many of these spiders that they almost form a sea of spiders, which spreads like a tidal wave.

The spiders almost formed an encirclement, and it wouldn't be long before they could encircle Herag.

"This is commanded by the spider queen!" Herag learned about the situation behind him through Deep Blue.

From the beginning of these spiders to hunt the mammoth, to the subsequent actions of the mammoth to release the mammoth in unison, to chase him and form an encirclement, a series of actions indicate that there is someone behind the command.

There are so many spiders, and only the spider queen in the nest can give them orders at the same time.

"The spider swarm is rapidly approaching, and the encirclement is expected to be closed in three minutes!" Navy gave a warning.

Herag looked around as he ran: "We have to find a place, and now we will definitely die if we run forward." ”

The speed of the spider swarm is too fast, and he will definitely not be able to run if he continues to run, and he will eventually be surrounded.

These spiders were all over the mountain, and Herag could see that his head was big.

"There's a cave there!"

Herag's eyes searched around, and soon he found a cave in front of him.

You may not be able to escape if you run in, but if you don't, you will die.

At this time, Herag had no choice but to rush to the cave and burrow into it.

When he entered the cave, he looked at the soil around him and found it very hard.

Herag had planned to collapse the mouth of the cave to prevent the spiders from getting in a bit.

But now that he was touching the walls of the cave, he had no choice but to give up on this plan.

The sound of spiders crawling behind him was like a talisman, and Herag went deep into the cave, hoping to find a way out inside, even if it was an underground river.

When he got in, the spiders crawled all over the place.

But strangely, all the spiders squatted outside the cave and did not burrow into the cave.

Countless spiders squatted at the mouth of the cave like this, staring inside with eight green eyes.

When Herag entered the cave, he found it dark inside, so he took out a lantern from the spatial ring and lit it up when he pressed the switch.

The light source of this lantern is an ore, and there is a small spell circle at the base, and when the switch is turned on, the spell circle will absorb a little bit of fire energy particles, and then the ore will glow.

When the switch is turned off, the ore will be bright for a while, and then it will slowly dim.

"Huh?" Herag also noticed the situation at the entrance of the cave, and Deep Blue showed everything in real time.

He thought for a moment, "Why don't these spiders chase in, is it because there is something more terrifying in this?" Or is it a forbidden place for them to enter? ”

Herag remembered the scene when the mammoth had just passed through the field, and the mammoth, the spider, and the beings in the town's houses were apparently following certain rules.

For example, potion materials in the fields are not allowed to be destroyed, which should be one of the rules set by the wizards who govern the place.

When Herag lit the lantern, he found many frescoes on the walls of the cave.

The lines of the murals are simple, even rudimentary, like those drawn by a three-year-old child.

But it was these frescoes that made Herag frown.

"That's a bit of a long time ago."

He continued to walk forward with a lantern and found that the mural on the wall was long, but coherent, as if telling a story.

After seeing all the frescoes, Herag probably understood, because the frescoes were simple and crude, and the meaning was clear.

The idea is that the natives who live here have to fight against all kinds of fierce beasts every day, and many people die every day.

Later a messenger of the gods came and brought them a tablet.

The natives gained magical powers from the stone tablets and then easily defeated the beasts.

As food became easier, the population began to expand rapidly, and people lived a well-fed and clothed life.

"Slate ......"

After looking at the mural, he felt that the reason why the spiders outside did not dare to come in was not because there were more terrifying beings here, but because the rules here prevented them from entering.

"Let's see if there's anything else."

He continued, the cave was too old, and maybe something good would happen.

But he thought that since the spiders outside were raised by wizards, they might not be able to eat much meat himself, and he just hoped that some soup would be enough.

"So many spiders, what do they eat every day? No matter how many animals there are in the vicinity, isn't it, is there some other source of energy? ”

It occurred to Herag that the number of spiders could devour the local wildlife wherever they went.

There are so many of them, and no place can afford the ecological environment.

But this is a world of extraordinary powers, and Herag guesses that the spiders should not be a regular means of hunting to survive, but have other ways to absorb energy.

As Herrag walked some distance inside, he found that the inside of the cave was getting wider and wider.

Some of the statues along the way, which Herag had examined one by one, were ordinary stone carvings and did not contain any special energy.

There is only one road inside the cave, and there are no other forks.

He followed the road all the way and soon came to an open square, the size of a football field.

There are still some statues around the square, and there are some bonfire stone pillars, and some traces of fire can be seen inside.

The square is large and empty, with little else.

In the middle of the square, something caught Herag's attention.

It was a two-meter-high stone slab that stood in the middle of the square.

When Herag looked closer, he saw some figure paintings carved into the stone slabs.

In addition to figure paintings, there are many complex patterns.

"Can't look any further."

After looking at it for a while, Heragdor actually found himself a little dizzy.

He quickly reacted: "My mental power is not enough to look at this stone slab for a long time!" ”

There are many such things in the wizarding world, and they all require certain spiritual power.

The most common are some books, the knowledge recorded in these books is often too advanced, and people with insufficient mental strength will feel dizzy after reading them.

If you don't have enough mental strength and force it to watch, your brain will definitely hurt, and even death is not impossible.
