Spider Daughter Red

When Wang Wu woke up again, night was deep, and the stars gave no light.

He did not know what time it was, but it should not have been more than ten hours, because this time, he already had 2 points of resistance.

The same Spider Toxin, even without Bee Venom to neutralize it, could be handled by Level 4 Self-Healing Talent alone.

Unfortunately, no other substance had precipitated out, but his Spider Toxin Resistance had surged wildly, directly reaching 4 points.

Yet this also proved from the side that Spider Toxin was still slightly weaker.

Bee Venom needed to accumulate to 10 points.

His Satiety had also been emptied. That was not a good situation. Without Satiety, his Self-Healing Talent would not activate. What a pain in the ass.

Wang Wu hung there, not daring to move, silently waiting for sunrise.

As for the Black Spiders, they busied themselves beneath the tree, spreading vast webs and diligently catching passing Sprites. Their figures were rather alluring too—quite the capable homemakers...

Wang Wu observed, recorded, and sensed everything with Level 5 Danger Sense.

He gradually came to understand the situation of the Black Spider Clan.

They could truly be called thrifty householders with a flourishing population.

Moreover, the atmosphere within the clan was quite good. Whenever it was time to work hard at hunting, even that old widow the size of a round table did not rest. She would personally take the field, holding down the center.

Then, with that old widow at the center, the other Black Spiders each extended many smaller webs, and those smaller webs continued extending countless grandchild webs outward...

In this way, they could spread their hunting grounds over a huge area while remaining swiftly connected to one another.

Not only could information travel at high speed, they also possessed Spider Silk highways.

When one side encountered an enemy, support came from all eight directions.

Fucking incredible.

Wang Wu studied it for a long time before finally confirming that even if he wanted to escape now, he actually could not. This was the Black Widow Clan's net of heaven and earth.

Just like that, the night passed. Dawn was about to break, and the Black Spiders diligently reeled in all their Spider Silk.

Their Spider Silk was not ordinary Spider Silk. It was incredibly sturdy and incredibly tough, reusable again and again. It was absolutely good stuff.

Once they had finished gathering the Spider Silk, the sky grew brighter still. Sunrise was imminent. With rustling sounds ringing everywhere, the Black Spiders rushed toward the heights of the canopy, welcoming the blessing of the Golden Particles.

Yet for some reason, the old widow spider stopped once more before Wang Wu, this slab of cured meat. It seemed somewhat puzzled, but the sun was about to rise, and it did not want to miss the opportunity. Without another word, it jabbed Wang Wu with another needle, injecting him with indescribable Spider Toxin, then rapidly climbed to the very top of the canopy.

A beautiful future was calling to it. It was about to advance, and that prey below, which had not been easy to brew into Spider Wine, was destined to become its most beloved Daughter Red Fine Wine.

But it did not know that Wang Wu, who already possessed 4 points of Spider Toxin Resistance, was only stunned and unconscious for less than five minutes this time before quickly waking up. His Self-Healing Talent did not even activate.

"Now's the time to run!"

Wang Wu sensed the bright intensity of the sunlight outside and rapidly calculated the absorption rate of the Golden Particles.

Not bad. Although he had been unconscious and stunned, it had not affected his absorption of the Golden Particles.

In this brief span of time, the Spiritual Qi in his hands had once again broken through the 50-point mark.

By his calculations, this was precisely the Golden Three Minutes.

"Then add strength. I need to break free of these Spider Silk bindings quickly and effectively."

Wang Wu swiftly spent 40 points of Spiritual Qi, raising his strength from 6 points to 8 points.

Then he extended his already sharp, hardened claws and tried to cut open the Spider Silk cage. Being able to quietly slip away would undoubtedly be best. He did not want to come to blows with the Black Spider Clan. Would it not be better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes from this day forward?

After trying a few times, however, he found it somewhat difficult. The toughness and sturdiness of this Spider Silk could truly rival a stab-proof vest.

Then there was no helping it.

Opportunity did not knock twice. He could not delay any longer. Wang Wu exerted himself madly, forcibly prying apart the Spider Silk with his claws. This time, the results were indeed excellent.

Spider Silk was highly tough and elastic, but in certain situations, that instead became a weakness. It could not possess infinite toughness or infinite elasticity. When Wang Wu forcibly spread it apart with 8 points of strength, a series of snapping sounds rang out, and the Spider Silk cage was immediately torn open.

Naturally, the commotion alerted the entire Black Spider family above, who were absorbing Golden Particles in the canopy.

They could no longer care about absorbing them and rushed down one after another.

Although Wang Wu was anxious to escape, he could not simply jump from the tree. So he casually grabbed a slab of cured meat beside him, intending to use it as leverage to spring onto another branch.

Unexpectedly, the Spider Silk suspending that slab of cured meat consisted of only a few strands. It simply could not withstand such force and snapped at once. Wang Wu lost control in utter horror, clutching that piece of wind-dried cured meat as he fell through layers upon layers of trunks and branches.

With a "Bang!", he hit the ground so hard that stars burst before his eyes and the world spun around him. He even directly lost 30 health points.

After all, this was a height of twenty to thirty meters.

Counting the 30 damage negated by his 10 points of defense, the total damage had actually reached 60 points.

Wang Wu rolled and scrambled, staggering far away. Yet when he looked back, those Black Spiders had not chased after him.

Eh!

Interesting. So why the hell was I running? Down on the ground, without prearranged spider webs, what the hell am I afraid of!

If you have the guts, come down and fight Bear Lord for three hundred rounds!

Still dizzy and seeing double, Wang Wu actually rushed back, grabbed that slab of cured meat, turned, and ran.

He had taken a liking to this kind of Spider Silk. He could completely wear it as a stab-proof inner armor.

As for the so-called Spider Daughter Red inside...

Ugh, too disgusting.

He thought about it with great disdain.

Only after jumping into a patch of grass and checking that there was temporarily no danger around him did he extend his claws, preparing to open the top of the Spider Wine. He had already planned it out: he only needed to cut two holes, then crawl inside like it was a scarf.

But before he could begin cutting the Spider Silk, he smelled a strange, slightly burnt and bitter scent.

Was this what Spider Wine smelled like?

Wang Wu was rather disgusted, but the next second, he still stuck out his tongue and gave it a lick.

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! It's so bitter."

He shook his head madly until a message flashed before his eyes.

Satiety +1!

Fuck!

He had nearly injured a friendly unit by mistake!

Wang Wu's eyes lit up. What did a little bitterness matter?

He cautiously pulled open the Spider Silk at the top, then, as though hugging an enormous wine jar, gulped down three huge mouthfuls.

"Ugh... fucking hell, it's so bitter!"

Setting the thing down, Wang Wu stuck out his tongue from the bitterness, his face twisting into something inhuman.

If there had been a mirror, he believed he would have turned into a bitter melon.

Yet only a few seconds later, amid that endless bitterness, a faint sweetness unexpectedly rose. It was not very sweet, but in such a sea of bitterness, it was like a life-saving straw, utterly different.

After that sweetness, a warm current began rising in his belly and flowed through his entire body. He felt warm and comfortable, as though floating in the clouds, utterly carefree.

Only then did several lines of information arrive belatedly.

"You drank Mortal Grade Fine Wine—Spider Daughter Red!"

"You gained 300 points of Satiety."

"You gained 10 points of Spiritual Qi."

"You gained 1.5% Growth Rate."

"Your resistance to ordinary Spider Toxin has reached perfection. Current value: (5/5). You gained 10% Growth Rate and 10% Extra Growth Rate."

"Current total Growth Rate: 25.3%. Extra Growth Rate: 20%."

"Your Basic Attributes have increased slightly."

"You are drunk. For sixty minutes, you will be unable to enter Level 5 Stealth."
