The white fog billowed in the hall, limiting visibility. But with the Heavenly Fox Yuna’s guidance, the group was well prepared.

After absorbing a large amount of sulfur, the Black Pulp Tree not only grew rapidly, it also bore Black Pulp Fruit that would explode upon contact. Its branches could be ignited quickly.

After searching for many years, the Foxmen discovered a secret. A bowl-sized mud ball made from mud, sulfur, branches, and leaves from Black Pulp Trees could remain ignited for a full twelve hours. Despite releasing a vile stench, it was an ideal tool for illuminating a place, much better than the average flame torch.

After understanding the situation within the hall, the Fox Elder arranged for his clansmen to make a few thousand mud balls. In the past, because they had not managed to find enough sulfur, the tribe had been unable to use a large amount of these practical mud balls. But as long as they managed to kill the Spider Monster and excavate the Taildon Valley sulfur mine on a large scale, they would have more than enough high quality sulfur.

“On your marks, go!”

With the Fox Elder’s command, the Dogmen tied the ignited mud balls onto their harpoons then tossed them out with strength.

Molotov cocktails?

Seeing the ignited mud balls, Yang Ling was somewhat surprised, not expecting the Beastmen to possess such an art. Originally, he had been frustrated that the white fog was obscuring their vision. He hadn’t expected the Fox Elder to solve the problem completely in the blink of an eye.

In the eyes of an ordinary person, the mud balls were only a tool used for illumination, but Yang Ling had quickly thought of many other applications for them.

After making the exquisite mud balls, he could use them as lights, turning Wissen Town into a nightless city. He could form teams of merchants to sell these to bustling human cities, guaranteeing him a profit and bringing him an endless stream of income.

After recruiting expert artisans, he could also remodel these mud balls into Molotov cocktails. He believed that these would definitely be a nightmare for his enemies, be it on offense or defense. Coupled with the powerful Black Pulp Melon, he could even make them into exploding grenades, which would have destructive capabilities far beyond anyone’s imagination.

Yang Ling had many thoughts, while the Dogmen kept themselves busy throwing out waves of harpoons. Soon, the hall was covered with burning mud balls.

Every burning mud ball illuminated the ten step area around it. After the Dogmen threw out a few waves of harpoons, other than a few limited corners, everything within the hall could be seen clearly. Soon, the group noticed the Spider Monster’s position and true appearance.

Under the fiery red flame, Yang Ling saw a ferocious, massive creature scrunched deep within the hall.

It had eight legs, each the thickness of a barrel, large and powerful. Each leg was split into eight sections, each section thicker than the last and covered with thumb-sized black hair. At the end of every leg were claws about five and a half inches long, gleaming with cold light.

The Spider Monster’s body was massive. According to preliminary observation, it was about the size of a heavy truck, its body covered with dense scales. Its spine protruded out of its body, looking like the backbone of a huge fish from far away, or a giant sharp sword.

What scared the group was that the Spider Monster had the enlarged head of a human. Its head was no different from a human’s save for its few exposed fangs. From far away, if one did not see its lower body, they would think that it was a giant crouching on the ground!

Looking at the ferocious, strange Spider Monster, the group felt their scalps turn numb as they lost their color in shock. Yang Ling was no exception, subconsciously taking a few gasps of air.

Just what is this monster?

After swallowing hard, Yang Ling quickly took out the sharp dagger from his Space Ring, then took in a deep breath, trying his best to calm himself down.

Shocking, this is too shocking!

Even though they had prepared themselves beforehand, no one could have expected the Spider Monster to look like this. On the Tailun Continent, there were Orcs with the heads of bulls, Medusas who had human torsos and snake tails, but no one had seen a monster with a human head and the body of a spider. Thinking for some time, the Fox Elder was convinced that there was no such monster in the historical records.

“Oh, a Human-form Heavenly Fox? I was wondering why there was a familiar ripple two days ago. To think that a small fox has managed to evolve to gain a human form, hehe!” Smiling coldly, the Spider Monster looked at the Heavenly Fox Yuna with greed. “I have not tasted a Human-form Heavenly Fox in so long. I used to be called Abbas then. A hundred years, or five hundred years? Hehe, you came just in time to fill my stomach.”

A Spider Monster that can speak?

Looking at the strange Spider Monster, hearing its piercing, raspy voice, the group was shocked once again. A monster with the head of a human and the body of a spider had already chilled their hearts, but they did not expect this monster to be able to speak!

After taking in a few deep breaths, the group no longer hesitated, deciding to take action at once. The Ox Chief lifted his giant battle halberd and took the lead, while the Twin-headed Ogre Braska and Medusa leader followed closely behind him. At the end were the Spellcasters like the Fox Elder, Goode, and Heavenly Fox Yuna, protected by the warriors.

“Hehe, you are simply asking for death!”

Letting out a cold smile, the Spider Monster that called itself Abbas pounced forward, arriving before the Ox Chief in the blink of an eye. It then sent its claw crashing down.

He was too fast!

No one expected the massive Spider Monster to be so incredibly quick, and the Ox Chief was no exception. He instinctively jumped to the side. Even though he narrowly managed to avoid the crisis, his body became covered in cold sweat due to the shock.

Seeing the black figure pursue him like a shadow, he swung his giant battle halberd. It seemed to hit a sturdy metal, completely incapable of damaging the other party’s sharp, hard claws.

Missing his first attack, the Spider Monster was fast as lightning, and once again launched a fierce attack. With a few flicks, it successively tore the sturdy hide on the Ox Chief’s body into pieces, bringing with it a few streaks of blood.

After a dull thud, the Ox Chief turned pale, rolling away as he pressed on his wounds, narrowly avoiding the crisis. Then, just as he was about to climb up, he took a hurried look behind him, only to realize that the Spider Monster had closed in on him, its fangs bared!

“Ah…”

Seeing the Ox Chief unable to dodge in time, the group standing inside the hall shouted out. A few fierce Bullmen charged forward without consideration, hoping that they could save their chief. They wanted so desperately to grow two more legs. Unfortunately, they were at least a full hundred steps away from the battle and would be unable to rush over even if they grew wings!

At the critical moment, the Twin-headed Ogre Braska arrived in time!

Letting out a roar, the Twin-headed Ogre slipped into a Bloodthirsty Frenzy, the muscles on his body towering high, filled with an explosive power. It crashed down with its club, the impact landing on the body of the Spider Monster with a thud.

Roar…

Suffering the brunt of the attack, the Spider Monster that was preparing to kill the Ox Chief was furious. It took a sharp turn backward, opening its mouth to spew out a scorching black flame. Even though the Twin-headed Ogre managed to avoid the attack in time, his eyebrows were incinerated in an instant. He nearly became a pile of charcoal.

“Oh god, Heavenly Purple Flames, that is a high level fire element monster. Quick, quick stop it!”

Seeing the Spider Monster spew out purple flames, the Fox Elder lost his color in shock. He raised his hands and released an icicle, preventing it from continuing its attack on the Twin-headed Ogre who was still recovering from his shock.

Seeing the dire situation, the group all took action!

The Medusa leader flailed her tail, quickly moving to the Spider Monster’s back and slicing four times at the same spot of the monster’s rearmost right leg, bringing with her attacks a rain of blood. In that instant, the snake venom on the blades seeped into the monster’s body through the wound.

After her successful attack, the Medusa leader flailed her tail and retreated several meters, her movements quick. She moved continuously, sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right, searching for a suitable opportunity. The Spider Monster’s abilities were deep, beyond comprehension. Perhaps the snake poison that was fatal to an average person might not have too much of an effect on it. They had to find a way to directly deal heavy damage to its body.

Roar…

In its intense pain, the Spider Monster broke into a fury. But just as it was about to pounce forward and tear the Medusa leader to pieces, the Heavenly Fox Yuna finally took action, releasing the Petrifying Spell that she had been preparing for a long time.

Caught off guard, the Spider Monster was rendered unable to move, just like a stone statue. Even though its mouth was opened wide, it was unable to release the Heavenly Purple Flame that was in its mouth. The flame sizzled within its maw.

Seeing the Spider Monster unable to move, Yang Ling, who had been sitting cross legged on the ground, finally found a suitable opportunity. He formed a hand gesture and teleported to its side using his Earth Evasion. Thrusting forward with his dagger infused with Wizard Power, he stabbed the Spider Monster in the ribs, plunging the dagger all the way in until only the handle was left visible.

At the same time, the rest of the group took action!

The Medusas reacted the fastest, pouncing forward, once again slicing the rearmost right leg of the Spider Monster four times, each attack further exposing the flesh. The Twin-headed Ogre let out a violent roar, bring his club down directly on the head of the Spider Monster. Even the injured Ox Chief was unwilling to pass up on this opportunity, bringing his halberd fiercely down on the neck of the Spider Monster!

“Quick, retreat quickly!”

Originally, Yang Ling was prepared to stab the Spider Monster another time at its heart, but seeing a cold gleam in the other party’s eyes, he knew that the effects of the Petrifying Spell were beginning to vanish. In his shock, he quickly gave the order to retreat. He teleported to the hall’s entrance where the white fog billowed.

With Yang Ling’s order, the group did not dare extend the battle, and retreated quickly. Seeing the Ox Chief still bleeding freely, running away slowly while pressing on his wounds, the Twin-headed Ogre Braska lifted him up, clenching his teeth as he ran.

Roar…

Licking the fresh blood on its body, the Spider Monster was furious, letting out enraged roars. It pounced forward upon a nervous, slower Bullman who had been looking around in fear as he was running, and tore the Bullman in two. It then chewed ferociously, swallowing him in front of the group.

“All of you, you can all die!”

The Spider Monster spat out the Bullman’s hair, licked its lips, and charged forward once again. It made its way around the slower Bullmen and aimed straight for the Twin-headed Ogre Braska who was running and carrying the Ox Chief.

The Spider Monster is just too fast!

In the eyes of an ordinary person, all they could see was a string of afterimages. They felt as though the Spider Monster had arrived behind the Twin-headed Ogre right after it had finished its sentence. It seemed even faster than the teleportation of a Spellcaster!
