The Star Spirit's Trial (8/98)

At Liu Zhi's request, the Spinning Fate Spider Woman found several large spaces and moved the spider cocoons scattered throughout the Yadaliate into them.

She stacked the cocoons layer upon layer, securing each layer with webs and Spider Silk so they wouldn't touch one another. That way, the vast spaces could hold many layers of cocoons without them being scattered all over the floor as before.

After clearing away the cocoons, the Spinning Fate Spider Woman began cleaning up the Spider Silk strewn across the Yadaliate.

When Liu Zhi returned from dealing with the Star Spirit bugs yet again, he found that the Yadaliate had been restored to its original state. A row of cocoons still lined the ship, though, and the Spinning Fate Spider Woman stood before them, waiting for him to return.

All of them were Zerg souls, which made them easy to use and relatively simple to process.

Using a Magic Array designed to expand its capacity, Liu Zhi could process over a thousand souls
