Diablo Destruction

"We are close to the spider lair." Phoenix said cautiously.

Isn't this nonsense? I rolled my eyes seriously. Even a fool would know what was going on after looking at the surrounding environment.

It is still a forest of towering ancient trees, but it is covered with patches of "frost and snow". If you look closely, you will see that these "frost and snow" are actually white spider nests. Between the densely spaced leaves, there are forked branches. On the top, there are even more than a dozen trees connected between two trees, covering the entire open space horizontally. These places are covered with countless spider webs. The small webs are only as big as a thumb, and there are The one is as big as a palm, the one is as big as a washbasin, and the largest one is the one we just saw, which is connected to more than a dozen trees and spans the entire open space. It is as big as half a football field. The light spider The silk is as thick as two fingers.

Such a giant spider web, let alone ordinary prey, even an elephant would definitely be unable to break free if it got stuck on it. We don’t know who its owner is or how big it is, because as soon as we saw it, Phoenix pulled us in a hurry Bypassed, according to it, the owner of the spider web should be the lord of this area. An unknown and powerful enemy like this also has a home field advantage. There are countless spiders under his command, so don't provoke them unless necessary. good.

We are in this kind of white world with nests and intertwined spider webs. If you look up, there may be a spider as big as a basin hanging above you, with disgusting saliva hanging from its fangs. Green compound eyes peer down at you, while spiders burrowing at your feet suddenly jump out at any time, biting you without mercy and trying to drag you into their nests. There are countless spiders of all sizes, or in the green leaves. Among the bushes, or in tree holes, or hiding in the nest, staring at themselves through the white nest membrane. The cold and cruel looks from all directions made me feel for the first time that having a sixth sense that was too sensitive was not a good thing. At the beginning, I still had the patience to clean up the cobwebs and spiders around me, but I soon gave up. Unless the entire forest is burned down, no one can escape from this creepy white mesh world.

Okay, let's revisit what Phoenix said earlier. If you still don't understand where you are, then go to hell.

"Whoosh——"

The fire bombs that shot out of the air traced a fiery red trajectory, opening the passage blocked by countless spider webs in front of them. A few unlucky spiders standing on the spider webs were rubbed by the fire bombs, and they let out strange "hissing" sounds. Falling to the ground, the disgusting body that was smoking was struggling for a few times, then its eight legs tightened, and it shrank into a ball and died.

"Let me tell you. Is the teleportation station of the Spider Forest really in a ghostly place like this?"

I hugged my body tightly and looked at the spider world where I was. This was simply challenging the limit of my endurance.

"Of course, who do you think I am, Phoenix? How could I go astray?"

"Then why is there no decent road around? If it is a teleportation station, shouldn't there be a lot of adventurers coming and going? How could this happen?"

Angrily, I kicked over a spider that was sneaking up on me. I couldn't help but question. Spider webs from all directions completely covered the entire forest. At first glance, I felt that this was a path that no one had walked on for at least several years.

"Because I deliberately chose this untraveled path." Phoenix seemed to be unaware of the impending disaster. He said proudly, as if he had done a great deed.

"So that's it, that's it, everything is your fault..." I murmured, my facial muscles twitching.

The next moment, I had picked up Phoenix like a chicken and tied him up in twos and twos. Then looked around.

"You actually like spiders so much, so let's throw you onto a spider web and have a close encounter."

As soon as she finished speaking, Princess Sanwu, who exuded a sense of non-existence, suddenly gently tugged at the corner of my clothes from behind, then took a few steps forward and pointed at a giant spider web in the blind corner of our sight, oh oh . It's really awesome. But then again, little Jasmine. How did you discover this? Have you already started planning to throw Phoenix into the cobwebs?

"Oh, no, brother Wu Fan, if you have something to say, you have something to say!"

Phoenix's expression changed when he saw the spider web that Moissa pointed at. Although the spider web was not as exaggerated as the half football field he saw for the first time, half of a basketball court could not escape. It was hanging under the spider web. There is also a "rockery" that is the same color as stone. After looking carefully, he found that this "rockery" is shaped like a curled up spider. His face immediately turned pale - a giant stone-killing stone spider, as its name suggests. It is about the size of a small car and has stone-colored skin. It likes to torture its prey to death. It is famous throughout the Dark Continent for its cruelty and bloodthirsty.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a close contact. As long as the adventurer's health points don't return to zero, there will be no problem, right?" I comforted Phoenix kindly.

"That's what matters. You devil master and servant, let me go, let me go." Upon hearing this, Phoenix struggled even more happily.

"Tell me honestly, what are your intentions this time?"

Of course I didn’t really want to throw Phoenix to the spider to grind his teeth. I frightened him for a while and put him down. Let’s have a three-room trial. Little Jasmine, come over with a guillotine and chop him up directly.

Ahem, whatever, let’s interrogate him first and let him know clearly.

"Well, because I discovered this road a long time ago, but I was alone and afraid of encountering any accidents, so I didn't dare to take risks. And spiders are disgusting, right? It would be better if we walked with more people." Phoenix He chuckled sheepishly.

"So you just dragged us into the water?"

Sure enough, the dog-headed guillotine was too cheap for him. He should have stripped naked, tied him up, hung his penis above the entrance of Lu Gaoyin's market, and then prepared a number of long, rough, red-burned sticks with sharp and bifurcated tips underneath. Those who were interested used long sticks to poke his anus until he died.

"Wait, wait, I still have something to say!!" Seeing the two of us turning dark, Phoenix exclaimed in surprise.

"Aren't you curious why I kicked those spider ovaries open along the way? In fact, there is a certain chance that there are good things hidden in them. Spiders almost have a habit of picking up something they like and it is troublesome to carry it with them. It will be kept in its own lair. You see, my long stick was kicked out of the spider's lair."

As he said that, he took out his long white stick as if to show off. I have seen its properties. It just adds 3 heaters and 1 broken ice armor, which is not the best.

In fact, the heating skill is very important to a mage. The equipment with 2 heating points is already the best for a mage. However, someone who is not a mage is also the best, so he does not realize this at all.

"What good things can be hidden in that kind of ghost place? Can you tell me what good things you picked up along the way?"

I understood a little bit that Phoenix was going to be in trouble, so I went to kick the spider ovary. At first, I thought he had a grudge against the spiders, but that was what happened, but he kicked hundreds of them along the way. I had never seen that before. what. Either a pool of disgusting green juice or a few fist-sized young spiders scattered out of the ruptured ovaries in panic.

"This is just a matter of probability. If it were so easy to kick, we wouldn't have to kill the monsters. Just focus on kicking the spider ovaries." Phoenix said with a laugh,

"Probability? I think it's just wishful thinking."

I snorted coldly, glanced around, and happened to see a spider ovary not far away. I couldn't help but step forward and kicked it.

"jingle--"

In everyone's stunned eyes, more than a dozen gold coins made a crisp collision sound and were raised high.

"Hmph. Just a dozen little golden spiders."

After reacting, I stepped on the gold coins into the mud at lightning speed and said viciously.

"That's nonsense. You're obviously telling lies. It's more than ten gold coins. You just want to throw me to feed the spiders, right?" A series of complaints came out of the furious Phoenix's mouth.

My eyes were pretty bright, so I squealed when faced with Phoenix’s complaints. This time it doesn't count. I must find an excuse for you to make out with a spider next time. I continued to scan with my eyes. Fortunately, we found a spider ovary not far away.

I won't be wrong this time. God, please give me a few fist-sized spiders so that I can catch Phoenix and feed them to the spiders. With this prayer, I kicked him down again.

"Fuck——"

There was a sound of metal friction, and a cracked emerald, a bottle of rejuvenation potion, and a blue chainmail fell to the ground in the stunned eyes of Phoenix and I.

The atmosphere was frozen for a long time...

"So that's it, that's what happened. I have been an unpleasant child since I was a child. I loved to peek at my neighbor's elder sister taking a shower, and I loved to lift girls' skirts..." Phoenix stood up from the ground with a gloomy look on his face, mouthing I kept thinking about it.

I said, it’s strange that someone likes such a kid.

"Even Lady Luck hates me so much. I finally understand that I am not accepted by this world and am an excluded existence..."

In an instant, his thoughts went to extremes. He is such a troubled guy.

I originally thought that Phoenix would be depressed for at least a whole day after being hit so hard. Unexpectedly, before night, this guy would come to life again, eating crocodile meat and showing his signature cheerful smile. No, not so much cheerful, I It would be more appropriate to describe it as a single cell. The next day, he continued his treasure hunting journey and said that only challenges are fun. People like me who are favored by the goddess of luck will not understand that unexpectedly getting a The fun of gold coins.

Well, there is indeed no need to understand, and I am not a beggar...

After dancing with spiders for two full days, we finally found that the overwhelming spider webs around us began to decrease. At least we no longer had to clean the road by ourselves. There are three possibilities for this situation. One is that we are about to leave the spider field. Secondly, there are often adventurers coming and going around. As for the third possibility...

We are approaching the territory of a certain **oss.

However, even with the protagonist's halo, we will not always have such "adventures" one after another. Phoenix told us that this is because the teleportation station in the Spider Forest is about to arrive.

soon. We found the path leading to the teleportation station, and met a group of adventurers on the way. About an hour later, we arrived at the ruins of a small town that seemed to have been destroyed by some giant monster. In a remote corner of the ruins, I finally found the first teleportation station in Kurast - the Spider Forest Teleportation Station.

Two black-robed mages in charge of the teleportation station greeted him cordially. They seemed to know Phoenix and registered. Everyone started chatting.

"By the way, Kanker, why do you want to build the teleportation station in a place like this?" I have always wondered why it is so bad that it should be built in such a ghost place full of spiders. No one who is timid dares to come. .

"Haha, sir, you don't know something."

The black-robed mage named Kanke smiled and threw a piece of dry wood into the red bonfire, and the boiling water in the iron pot on it began to steam.

"Actually, the forest is so dangerous. The teleportation station is the same wherever it is built, but compared with other places, don't you think there is something special here?"

"You mean...there are only spiders here?" After thinking about it, I can't think of anything more special here.

"Yes, there are only spiders here. Although it is a bit scarier than other places where monsters are found, there is only one kind of monster: spiders, and their living habits have already been understood. Isn't it easier to deal with it this way? "

"So that's it, but I'm still curious. There are only spiders here. Then they must not have enough food. How can they survive like this? Are they preying on the same kind?"

"This is also one of the ways. The activity level of spiders is not large, so even if they are huge, their demand for food will not be too much. Every month, they will flock out of their own areas and go outside. Forest hunting, if there is still not enough food, it will start to prey on the same kind..."

This kind of useless conversation lasted until late at night, but even if it was not nutritious, even a few hums and haha ​​would be fine. It is also something that dark people happily spend their time doing. Because there is really too little entertainment here.

Early the next morning...

"I said brother. You really don't need my company anymore."

Phoenix looked at us eagerly from the side, feeling that he was really addicted as a tour guide, but I think he was more thinking about taking us on an adventure. No, we must expel this dangerous person as soon as possible.

"Well, go to hell." I nodded coldly.

Oh, he cried.

"Right, wait..."

Just when Phoenix was about to enter the teleportation point with his head downcast like a defeated rooster, I called out to him.

"This, this, and these things, you can take them."

I handed him a blue eagle's magic bead, a pair of golden heavy boots, and ten bottles of recovery potion. The blue eagle's magic bead was the one that this guy graciously gave me. Its attribute is plus 2 lightning. , plus 1 fireball, +2 ice storm, +3 strength. It should be more useful than his white stick in battle. As for the golden heavy boots, it is for killing the elite thornwood demon when you first encounter it. The attributes dropped are also good. After all, they were produced by Wu Fan.

These two pieces of equipment were both mined during adventures with Phoenix. Although I am the only one doing the work and effort, it makes sense to ration them to him in the name of my teammates. However, for Phoenix, the most precious items are probably the replies. Vitality potion, among adventurers, the demand for rejuvenation potion exceeds the supply. It is more cost-effective than gold equipment. One bottle of vitality potion may not be able to exchange for a piece of gold equipment, but you have to take out three bottles to ensure that people who want to exchange can grab a lot.

To be honest, this thing is precious to other adventurers, but to me it can be used as boiled water. There is a microwave, three bottles of mana potion + three bottles of life potion + a broken gem. It can be easily combined. One bottle. If Akara hadn't allowed me to sell it in bulk (for fear of adventurers relying on it), I would have become the richest man in the dark. Now I have so many rejuvenation potions that I have the ability to defeat the comprehensive rejuvenation potion (synthesized). Conditions: three bottles of rejuvenation potion; synthesis time: greater than 72 hours; synthesis probability: less than 5%).

"Hey, why are you crying again." Seeing Phoenix looking at the equipment and potions I handed over and wiping away tears, I suddenly felt dumbfounded.

"Woo~~, brother Wu Fan, I have always misunderstood you. I didn't expect you to be a good person."

Hello. What does "unexpectedly" mean? Return the staff to me, return the boots to me, and spit out all the crocodile meat that I have eaten in the past few days.

In the end, Phoenix accepted the Eagle Staff and the Golden Heavy Boots. As for the ten bottles of rejuvenation potion, he only took two bottles. According to his explanation, who am I, Phoenix. Do you need to rely on these things? These two bottles of rejuvenation potions were regarded as tour guide fees, so I reluctantly accepted them.

Watching Phoenix swaggeringly disappearing into the teleportation station, I sighed. Getting along with adventurers is actually a big subject. Everyone is extremely proud, and they have to weigh everything they give. If not, If you give too much, you will be mistaken for thinking that you look down on the other person or that you pity the other person. Even a person like Phoenix, who has a carefree personality and behaves unscrupulously (Phoenix appearing at the Kurast teleportation station: yawn!! Is anyone thinking about me?), is not willing to take advantage of him.

Therefore, it is better to give to your own women. You can give to whomever you want. It doesn't matter how much you give. If you don't obey, you will be served by the family.

I turned around. He hugged Princess Sanwu and kissed her hard on her snowy face under the incomprehensible gaze, then unfolded the tent. Gather all the ladies to prepare for the work.

If you want to do anything wrong, just stand in the corner.

Inside the tent, three people (?), one fish and one dog, sat together with solemn expressions. The slightly swaying light from the stove in the middle shone on our solemn faces, making the atmosphere even heavier.

"First of all, before the discussion, I want to make something clear."

Stern eyes swept across the faces of everyone (dog? fish?). Seeing the resolute faces of soldiers who had experienced countless wars, I nodded with satisfaction.

"The first thing I want to explain is..."

Finally, I set my sights on our golden-haired Pekingese Commander. Affected by the atmosphere, his posture seemed to straighten slightly, as if he was waiting for instructions.

"Dogs are not allowed to attend the meeting." The next moment, I indifferently picked up the dead dog's ears and threw it to the corner.

"Ga-oh-ga-oh-"

The furious dead dog pounced and bit him.

"Wow~~. Xiaofan is really awesome. Finally, he got some atmosphere. I originally wanted to continue acting."

I was troubled by the fight between me and the dead dog. The solemn atmosphere in the tent suddenly disappeared without a trace. The little ghost held his beautiful chin in boredom, sighed, and rolled his beautiful silver eyes.

"Even if you can understand people, you can't speak. Besides, what good advice can a dog give?"

I pulled the two rabbit ears of the dead dog and said, look, even if I am facing a reserve of food, even if it is just a stupid dog, I will be reasonable and present the facts. What is a saint? Please refer to me.

"Ga oh ga oh——"

While biting my thigh tightly and spitting out vague sounds from its furry mouth, the dead dog pointed at the little mermaid who rarely woke up.

"You mean why the little mermaid can participate again?"

I don't know why, but I can always easily understand the strange roars of dead dogs that are clearly not even dog language. Could it be that they have been cursed by some vicious spell? I shuddered hard.

"That's because..." The little ghost on the side looked at us playing with a smile, fearing that the world would not be in chaos and joined us.

"That's because Leona, your status is lower than that of Elijah. oh."

Hey, hey, you are provoking it, you little one is definitely provoking it.

Sure enough, after hearing what the little ghost said, the dead dog immediately loosened his teeth from clenching me and moved his eyes to the kind-hearted little mermaid who was watching our playmaking curiously.

Hoho, how can we, the majestic dragon clan, lose to your mermaid clan? Don't think that having a golden tail is a big deal. Let me tell you, this princess is actually a golden dragon. Her whole body is golden. It is much nobler than your half-bucket of gold. It's time. Let's do it today. Let's divide the ranks and see who is the boss(?) in the team.

Feeling Leona's hostile gaze, the little mermaid immediately became vigilant. She touched behind her secretly, and a golden three-pronged fork suddenly appeared in her hand. She held it diagonally in front of her chest, as if she was ready.

"Ga oh - ga oh -"

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey-"

For a moment, the entire tent was filled with the sound of inhuman fighting.
