Hunting the Legendary Creature, the Giant Spirit Spider

On the giant planet that was recently renamed Necromunda from Spider Star, the towering towers that once stood there naturally transformed into Hive City.

At the bottom of the First Hive City, the black-armored Warrior crawled into the pipes amidst the curious yet fearful gazes of the residents trapped there.

Nimrod bent slightly as he moved forward through the damp and filthy pipes.

After walking several hundred steps, he first saw a corpse lying on the ground clutching its leg, its foot a bloody mess. A moment later, as expected, he saw the Spine Crystal in the corner of the sewage pit.

The Primarch flashed by, casually picked up the "Lawyer's" supplementary materials from the sewage pit, and put them into his huge backpack.

Seeing that the Primarch was interested in the coral-like crystals, the "Sleepless" bent down to pick them up; darkness and filth were no obstacle to them.

After walking several dozen steps, Nimrod suddenly drew his Power Sword from his waist and swung it casually.

The blue Disruption Field enveloping the sword blade collided with the tendril-like creature that suddenly sprang out of the sewage pit, shredding the two-meter-long, sticky, bloated creature.

[Slime Jelly]

The muddy oceans and toxic sewage pits of the lower and Underhive Lower Hive of the Hive City seem to be devoid of life, yet the Slime Jelly thrives in these harsh environments.

The tendrils of the Slime Jelly can sense their surroundings. When those struggling survivors get close, they suddenly dart out, wrap around the unfortunate creature's body, Paralysis the victim with toxins secreted from the tendrils, and then drag the unfortunate creature into their filthy, slimy body to slowly digest it.

[Not a potion ingredient.]

Nimrod then swung his sword, casually slashing down yet another enormous mud jelly that had lived for countless centuries.

The lower levels of the Hive City are a dangerous place for any experienced survivor, who will carefully avoid dangerous areas such as puddles and dark spots.

But to the perceptive Shadow of Order, they posed no threat; they continued their relentless march, killing the dangerous creatures one by one.

In the near future, before dangerous creatures from other areas venture into this region, the residents who have been struggling to survive will find it safe.

[According to the investigation, the Giant Spirit Spider had appeared in an abandoned dome, dragging away some unfortunate scavengers.]

As the Primarch pondered, he emerged from the winding tunnels and entered an abandoned dome.

As soon as they stepped into the dome, hundreds of monsters spread their wings and pounced on the black-armored Warrior.

[Ripper Kid.]

Nimrod glanced at them and immediately recognized that these predators were hybrids of giant bats and piranhas. The Ripper Kid hung upside down from the abandoned giant dome, and when hunting, they would use their grappling hooks to lift their prey and wrap them in their wings.

Afterward, the Ripper Kid would gouge out the victim's eyes, then tear open the face and throat.

[One of the main ingredients for the potion "Provoker," the Sequence 8 follow-up to "Hunter."]

After some deliberation, Nimrod decided to preserve the intact body of the Ripper Kid.

The Primarch took a deep breath, its eyes flashing with light, and suddenly opened its mouth, letting out a Psionic Energy howl.

The shockwave from the convergence of Warp energy, under his control, did not affect his offspring behind him, but completely enveloped the Ripper Kid.

The "Psychic Scream" shattered the minds of hundreds of Ripper Kid in an instant, and they fell helplessly to the ground.

"Go around and search for traces of the Giant Spirit Spider."

The Shadow of Order departed as ordered, Nimrod used this time to quickly move the Ripper Kid back to the "Nation of Disorder".

With the Ripper Kid, the only thing missing for the "Provoker" potion is Squig.

Yes, the Ork like to keep Squig in captivity, especially the Snakebite Clan.

There are many kinds of Squig; besides the common Squig creatures, there are also edible ones and those that can be used as mounts.

Even ordinary Squig could potentially transform into Squiggoth; they are also part of the Orks ecosystem, and I believe anything is possible.

While Nimrod was pondering, he moved all the bodies of the Ripper Kid into a palace. After returning to reality, he received a report from a "hunter".

"Father, I've found traces of a giant spider."

Upon hearing Primarch, the Primarch immediately summoned the other Shadow of Order to the location of the "Hunter".

Upon arriving here, he indeed saw many sticky threads hanging around him, and deep V-shaped footprints on the ground and the dome-shaped stone walls.

"Tracing the trail."

Nimrod gave the order to the "hunters," Shadow of Order immediately dispersed, some bending down to examine the ground, others inspecting the walls.

After a short while, they gathered together, discussed the traces, and reached a consensus before leading the way forward.

Even for the natives of Spider Star, the Giant Spirit Spider is merely a legend passed down for millennia; it is both a belief and a synonym for fear and Nightmare.

Everyone who encounters the Giant Spirit Spider faces only one outcome: death. This is why they have become legendary creatures.

Of course, the Lower Hive, where human life is as worthless as grass, is never short of adventurers. They are attracted by the precious flesh and venom of the Giant Spirit Spider, hoping to hunt one, exchange it for huge wealth, and ascend to the top of the tower.

Death awaited them.

Giant Spirit Spider have an extremely strong sense of territory; anyone who trespasses into their territory will be dragged away, hung on their webs, and eaten.

The hunting party of the Shadow of Order continued their journey, the spider webs growing increasingly dense, as they entered the territory of the Giant Spirit Spider.

As Nimrod moved forward, he looked ahead. In his "Warp Vision," on the surface of a lake-like lake, two creatures emanated a light of fear and death.

Their projections in Warp are clearly visible.

[Raft Spider.

Today is a lucky day.

Nimrod knew that the Raft Spider was the most precious of all Giant Spirit Spider species, its eyes, as pure and valuable as diamonds, luring every greedy hunter.

The Primarch reached out and snatched the Chainsword from one of the "hunters" beside him; in his hand, it was just a short knife.

He moved swiftly, arriving at the sewage pool.

Two Raft Spider, nearly 100 meters tall, glide gracefully across the surface of the sewage pool.

For bodies as tall as, but even larger than Emperor-class Titan, their sliding on the surface of sewage seemed strangely out of place, but Nimrod knew that this was a characteristic of Raft Spider, and the reason for their name.

As the Primarch looked at the Raft Spider, they also looked over at the same time.

They instinctively sensed the terrifying aura emanating from the small black creature in front of them. They arched their bodies, their abdominal silk glands twitched, and the Spider Silk lashed out like long white whips.

Nimrod narrowed his dark eyes. He noticed that several parts of the Giant Spirit Spider's body were radiating a Spirituality light.

Goodness, it's practically made from potion ingredients.

Eyes, fangs, silk glands, even spider legs.

To preserve the potion's ingredients intact, he didn't use Power Weapon or Bolter; the Primarch suddenly took off and raced through the sewage pool.

The Giant Spirit Spider swung its head violently, its Spider Silk whipping towards his black figure. The white "whip" was as fast as lightning, but the Primarch was even faster.

He stepped precisely on the protruding rocks in the sewage pool, using them to propel himself forward at high speed.

At the same time, his consciousness also spread towards the Giant Spirit Spider.

Boom!

The Primarch's consciousness crashed into two blood-red spiderweb-like gates, causing the spiderwebs to tremble violently.

His dark eyes narrowed. The Raft Spider's minds were surprisingly resilient, which was beyond his expectations, considering they hadn't specifically trained their willpower.

The Primarch of Genes shifted its gaze, focusing its consciousness on a Raft Spider. The gathered Psionic Energy transformed into countless black mental torches, which smashed towards the spiderweb gate.

Meanwhile, he continued his movements, rushing towards another Raft Spider.

With three large strides, Nimrod leaped into the air, dodging the venomous fangs' slash.

Through "Warp Insight," he detected a narrow slit at the junction of the Raft Spider's hard exoskeleton and its abdomen.

The Primarch spins rapidly in the air, dodging the falling spider legs.

Nimrod leaped to the center of the spider's abdomen, forcefully shoved the Chainsword into the Raft Spider's abdomen, and then pressed down on the Runic Rune the hilt.

The Primarch's immense power propelled the Chainsword forward, shredding the Raft Spider's body with its roaring, spinning blades.

The Chainsword's path avoided each silk gland, a result of Nimrod's skillful control.

When the Shadow of Order arrived at the sewage pool, they saw the Chainsword emerge from behind a gigantic creature larger than Titan.

At the same time, another enormous creature, killed by a mind attack, crashed heavily into the sewage lake.

Amidst the splattering sewage, Nimrod caught the falling Chainsword, which landed on the Raft Spider's hard carapace. He deactivated the Runic Rune and casually tossed it in front of a Shadow of Order.

"Go and search the surrounding area."

The Shadow of Order, recovering from the shock of the scene, dispersed to search.

Nimrod dragged the enormous Raft Spider into the "Nation of Disorder," thinking to himself.

[Other materials are uncertain, but the silk glands of the Giant Spirit Spider should be the main material for the "Demoness" Pathway Sequence 6 "Demoness of Pleasure".]

After all, starting from this Sequence, Demoness can create Spider Silk.

The somewhat embarrassing thing is that I haven't even collected all the ingredients for the Sequence 8 "Instigator" potion yet.

We have the other potion ingredients, but not the Catachan Brain Leaf.

Nimrod's memory indicated that the future Necromunda's Lower Hive would be filled with the Catachan Brain Leaf, but Necromunda had just been conquered, and Catachan had not yet been discovered by the Expeditionary Fleet, so the lobes would naturally not be brought there.

[We can only wait until the Dice of Prophecy are fully charged before using the established connection to perform a directional divination of the star map leading to Catachan.]

If I succeed, I can send a fleet to occupy that planet.

Yes, Catachan would be a good fit for the recruitment world of the 7th Legion, which focuses on "hunters."

Nimrod's eyes lit up; he suddenly had an idea.

[He divines the special worlds he knows, arranges recruitment worlds suitable for each Chapter, and allows them to recruit soldiers from those worlds who fit the Chapter's unique culture.]

Vostonia primarily served as the main recruitment base for the 11th Chapter, which mainly consisted of "Lawyer."

The key, of course, is the Dice of Prophecy. So the Primarch brought the two Raft Spider corpses to the "Nation of Disorder" and went straight to the third layer of the real space to check the situation of the Dice of Prophecy.
