Age of Adepts

half a month later...

Burning Cave.

Greem's 100-meter-tall mighty body stood on top of a small volcano, silently examining the surrounding black-red world made up of black smoke and flames.

As the former king of this place, Lakbes, the emberweb spider mother who ruled the Burning Cave for nearly two thousand years, was crawling at Greem's feet scorched all over her body, and the golden talisman left by the inextinguishable flame was still shining on her bulging belly. arts.

Lakbes is very miserable now!

Three days ago, the mysterious fire giant suddenly appeared in her domain, demanding her surrender and loyalty.

Flame creatures are all cruel and cruel people, how can they give up the freedom of their souls!

Thus, an earth-shattering war broke out.

What Lakbes didn't expect was that this flame giant turned out to be a terrifying powerhouse with a level of 5. In a violent manner, he instantly destroyed the burning cave built by Lakbes over thousands of years of hard work, and at the same time wiped out the countless traps and descendants of the emberweb spider in the cave.

The battle between the two fought from the Burning Cave to the Singa Volcano, a full two hundred miles away, before ending with the defeat of the Spider Mother Lakbes.

Lakbes is a fire-attribute cinderweb spider with a height of 5 meters, six pairs of sharp jointed legs and a pair of giant pincers. As the spider mother of the cinderweb spider, Lakbes is best at laying fire web traps and breeding a large number of fire spiders.

She arranged a large number of spider web traps near her lair to hunt those wandering flame creatures, and then lived by sucking the magma and flames on the elemental remains, and gradually became stronger.

Her physical strength may not be too strong, but she has the most difficult fire net and an astonishing number of offspring. It was precisely because of these two points that she was able to stand out from the crowd of flame creatures and become the only fourth-level flame lord within a thousand miles.

It's just that she, the flame lord, is a bit of a misnomer. Apart from her offspring, there are no flame creatures of other races to follow her. As for the reason, just look at her chubby, never-satisfying big belly and you will know why.

Faced with such an insidious and cunning emberweb spider mother who likes to hide in the dark and sneak up on enemies, Greem naturally has a lot of means to deal with her.

One of the main reasons why Lakbes is so difficult to deal with is that her lair is built underground, and the cave passages are extremely narrow and tortuous. When encountering those overly powerful flame creatures, she hid underground to lurk. And when she meets a weaker guy, she will make a big move, using self-explosive fire spiders, ember web spiderlings, web weaving spiders and other little guys to lure them into the fire net trap.

To deal with this kind of bullying, insidious and despicable guy, Greem is more insidious than her!

When Greem came here, the first thing he did was to block the entrance of Lakbeth's lair, and then he blew up the sky-burning flames, blowing the inextinguishable flames to every corner of the underground lair.

Smoldering spiders!

Although the cinderweb spider is a fire-type creature, it can survive even in thousands of degrees of magma. But in the face of regular flames like the Immortal Flame, their fire resistance instantly cleared to zero, and they could only hiss shriekly in the golden sea of ​​flames, wailing to death.

Not to mention these little guys, even the fourth-order spider mother Lakbes was forced out of the underground lair, and could only drag her scorched body full of golden flames to fight Greem desperately.

It's embarrassing, although Greem is expensive at level 5, his strength, physique and agility are far inferior to this level 4 spider mother. However, the powerful flame jump allowed him to avoid Lakbeth's swift bite, boiling splash and smoldering destruction in time.

Rapid Pounce and Bite: When Lakbes is within the range of the fire net, his own action speed increases by 300%, and when the attack hits the opponent, there is a certain chance to paralyze the enemy.

Boiling Splash: Spray a 20-meter-long scorching venom to a cone-shaped area 60 degrees in front, causing 3000 degrees of fire damage and 2000 degrees of venom damage to enemies within.

Smoldering Destruction: Spew a 5*5 meter dreadful fire net soaked in venom at the enemy. Enemies bound by the fire net will lose their ability to move and suffer huge damage caused by the venom igniting the flame energy in their bodies.

It has to be said that the guys who can stand out from the many tyrannical flame lords and become the best among them are all equipped with unique skills and have some terrifying skills that are difficult for outsiders!

Even if Greem's level crushes the opponent, and he still has dual artifacts to protect his body and two types of fire rules to hurt the enemy, he still has to be careful in the face of the strange smoldering destruction of the Cinderweb Spider Mother.

It's impossible for the opponent to turn defeat into victory, but if you accidentally bite him twice after being caught in his fire net, it's a very embarrassing thing!

That's why Lakbes was able to force Greem back time and time again by continuously spitting fire nets.

It wasn't until it got here that it had exhausted all the venom and fire net mucus in its big belly, before it was blown up by a fireball from Greem, and then branded with flames on its body.

"Surrender or destroy?" Greem shouted violently.

"I would rather die than surrender..." Lakbes just hissed sharply, and the flame rune on her belly suddenly transformed into a hot golden flame, burning all over her body in an instant.

This kind of golden flame is the realized immortal flame, which has the rule characteristics of ignoring magic resistance and burning soul. Therefore, even with the fire resistance of the 4th-level flame lord of Lakbes, it is still painful, and the whole body is charred and black.

Fortunately, Greem didn't intend to kill her, so the Immortal Flame degenerated into a fire rune after only burning for five fingers. And Greem took out a bottle of healing potion from his arms, and poured it on Lakbeth's scorched body.

Relying on the powerful regenerative ability of Tier 4 creatures and the assistance of healing potions, Lakbes returned to normal in only half a quarter of an hour.

There was a muffled bang.

Greem raised his foot and stepped on the Cinderweb Spider Mother who was about to tear the surface and flee back underground, and asked again in a buzzing voice, "Surrender or destroy?"

"You..." This time, before Lakbes could finish his sentence, his whole body was once again overturned by the golden flames that soared into the sky.

There was another sizzling sound of burning flesh in the arena, and a scorched and pungent smell diffused out.

After a while, the flames receded, and Lakbes was rescued by Greem again.

"Hehehe, little spider, don't hesitate to speak hard. Anyway, I have plenty of healing potions here, even if it tortures you for a hundred years, it won't be a problem. Tell me, what is your choice this time?" Greem sneered, speaking The insipidity in the film made the Spider Mother feel chilled to the bone.

"I……"

As soon as Lakbes uttered a word, golden flames swept across her body in an instant, and her shrill and sharp howls and screams sounded again in the arena.

After a while, the flames subsided.

Greem frowned, scratched his head, and said with an 'apology' on his face: "I'm sorry, the flame was activated early. What did you just say?"

Crouching on the hard rock, Lakbes, who was already dying, waved his jointed feet and pincers angrily, flying the gravel cut by the volcanic rock under him, scratching the road.

"Why? Why did you come to me? There are too many flame lords here, why did you only find me?" The spider mother obviously had a deep resentment about this question.

"So you are the smartest!" Greem praised with a smile.

This is what he really said.

Those stupid big guys, although their strength is also very good, and their rank is not low, but they are all hot-tempered, and they don't know how to adapt to the straightforward ones. They are all stubborn bulls running to the black, and it is useless to threaten them with death.

In contrast, only these guys with alien blood and smart enough brains know fear and the preciousness of life.

Smart people are afraid of death!

This is the iron rule summed up by the wizards, and Greem also deeply agrees!

"What if I don't surrender?" Even though the injury was so serious, Lakbeth only took a while, and his whole body was in a state of rapid recovery, and even his speech became powerful again.

"Then I'll play with you for a while until my patience is exhausted." Greem explained honestly: "At that time, I will twist off your head as a trophy, and break off your spider legs to make Dagger, take off your pincers and use them as scissors, take out your silk sacs and poison glands to make magic weapons..."

"Well, let me think about it, what valuable things do you have on your body... By the way, you can also extract souls... Hey, little spider, do you have any spider crystals in your body? I heard that is also a good thing ..."

Hearing Greem's familiar treasures there, the body of the Emberweb Spider Mother Lakbes Spider couldn't help but start to tremble. As a high-level intelligent life, she is different from those big guys who are stupid and violent.

She knew very well that when a high-level elemental creature like herself fell into the hands of a human wizard, death was not the final destination, but the beginning of infinitely terrifying torture!

Thinking of his miserable life of slavery for thousands of years in the future, Lakbes couldn't help feeling sad, and lay down there and began to cry loudly.

It's just that, as a grotesque spider-like flame creature, she looks hideous and ugly in the eyes of humans even if she is crying pear blossoms with rain.

"Hey, little spider, have you made up your mind yet? If you don't surrender, I'll beat you with your spider leg!" Greem impatiently crushed his big foot, and immediately made the spider mother groan in pain. Call.

"Surrender...I surrender!" The cinderweb spider mother Lakbes, who was terrified of the wicked and had been rampant in this area for two thousand years, finally lowered her proud head and surrendered to Greem.

The next job is very simple.

Lakbes let go of his soul consciousness, and Greem branded his own soul imprint inside.

In this way, Lakbes, the fourth-level flame lord's cinderweb spider mother, became the first native creature Greem surrendered after entering the Fire Elemental Plane.
