"Master!"

Amidst the panicked gasps, Wenlai, who was riding the Horned Bat Wings monster, suddenly appeared in front of the escape cave, a human-eating spider as tall as an adult!

Ignoring the exclamations behind him, a layer of Energy Shield appeared on the surface of Wenlai. The corrosive spider silk rubbed against Energy Shield slightly, making a "sizzling" sound, and was silently bounced away by the energy protective shield.

Wenlai's eyes were red, and he held the wand in his right hand. Following the high-spirited spell, a gray energy spear suddenly appeared in his left hand. The spear was entangled with wisps of black tobacco, emitting extremely terrifying energy fluctuations.

Everyone's eyes were involuntarily drawn towards him, showing surprise.

"Howling Spear!"

The gray spear disappeared in a flash.

After the adult man-eating spider blocking the passage was penetrated by Howling Spear, a large amount of black smoke spread, and the terrifying giant spider instantly twitched and spasmed, and gradually stiffened and died.

"Master! What kind of monster is this? I have never seen it in the illustrated book!"

At this time, Reilo was still greedy for collecting specimens. Master Wenlai had no intention of paying attention to Reilo and continued to flee forward with a few soldiers.

Staring at the dense swarm of man-eating spiders chasing behind him, Reilo was clearly terrified, but the scholar's greedy instinct to seek knowledge overcame everything. He stopped for a moment and hurriedly collected the body of the adult man-eating spider into Space Box, then continued to run forward regardless of everything.

At this moment, Reilo, who was practicing the First Order section of <Self-Control>, finally saw the benefits. At least he was able to keep up with the escape of these fully armed soldiers.

If it were the previous Reilo, I am afraid that these man-eating spiders would have caught up with them and eaten them to the point where not even the scraps were left.

However, after this slight delay, Reilo has fallen to the farthest position among the crowd.

After this escape, there are now only four people left in the nine-man mission team. In addition to Wenlai and Reilo, there are also captain Ivan and the archer.

"Exit!"

Master Wenlai, who was at the front of the team, made a sound of surprise. It was obvious that he was running away all the way and was about to reach his limit.

Everyone couldn't help but show their joy, and used their last strength to run as fast as they could.

However.

After rushing out of the cave first, Master Wenlai at the front of the team suddenly stopped and everyone bumped into each other out of panic and fear.

Crackling!

The thunder and lightning in the heavy rain disappeared in a flash.

With the help of this fleeting electric light, Reilo found himself in a tall building. Judging from the majestic goddess statue in the center of the building, it should be the Goddess of Wisdom church in the town of Black Rock Mountain.

And on the circular roof of this Goddess of Wisdom church, a pair of scarlet eyes were looking over. The six pairs of compound eyes next to the scarlet eyes were blinking constantly, exuding a trembling cold aura.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss."

Like a reaper of death in the black shadow, it was a huge spider that was more than three meters in size. What was terrifying was that the head of this huge spider was a delicate and beautiful face, and even had enviable soft black hair. However, the look she looked at everyone was heinous and evil, and her greedy and gloomy hoarse laughter echoed faintly in the space of the cathedral.

Human-faced Spider.

This word naturally appeared in Reilo's mind.

"I smell magic and it's my kids' favorite food."

With a ferocious spider body and a beautiful human face, this Human-faced Spider actually murmurs evil and cruel words in human words with a gloomy tone.

Human-faced Spider had eight strange legs covered with black barbed hair, slowly walking towards the crowd. On its body, Reilo seemed to see countless twisted heads, constantly wailing and screaming in pain.

"Master..."

You can feel the hoarseness and trembling of your own voice, and you can also feel the trembling body of Master Wenlai. Reilo can't imagine how much oppression he is enduring in the eyes of Master Wenlai when faced with this slow-moving horror Human-faced Spider.

In the cave behind him, countless palm-sized man-eating spiders crawled out, making a dense "rustling" sound.

Master Wenlai still did not move. His hand holding the wand kept making "clucking" sounds on the ground.

The archer couldn't bear the pressure and ran out desperately.

However, the strange thing is that neither the countless man-eating spider larvae rushing behind him nor the terrifying adult Human-faced Spider on the roof made any move. Even Reilo's eyes showed a hint of surprise. Could he really escape?

"Ah!!!"

However, the archer who had just escaped from the gate was suddenly knocked down by another huge figure in the ice rain outside. Seeing Master Wenlai showing the bitterness that he had already noticed, Reilo's heart gradually sank.

The archer screamed miserably and was anesthetized by the poison.

Spider silk spewed out from the back of the giant spider shadow, and the archer was entangled in a few blows. After doing all this, the giant spider wrapped the silk cocoon around the archer's body, hung upside down on the wall and walked into the church. It looked at the people in the empty church evilly and greedily.

This is clearly another terrifying Human-faced Spider.

Human-faced Spider's exquisite and beautiful face gradually opened its fang-filled mouth and let out a hoarse laugh.

There are nine people on the mission, and now only master Wenlai, Reilo and captain Ivan are left.

Countless man-eating spiders poured out of the cave behind them, but did not attack the three people. After the second Human-faced Spider entered the church, with the "crackling" thunder and lightning, Reilo vaguely saw other fleeting ghost figures outside the church, and his heart sank completely.

"What on earth are you?"

Master Wenlai looked up at the two terrifying behemoths and asked in a low voice and despair.

Although they speak human words, from their eyes, neither Master Wenlai nor Reilo can see even a trace of human emotion. Those are the cold eyes of insects, and a few people are just food in their eyes.

These two Human-faced Spiders, who possess a certain level of intelligence, have no intention of answering Master Wenlai's words.

One of them, Human-faced Spider, smiled hoarsely. The spider legs that were moving slowly a moment ago were surprisingly fast at this moment, leaving almost only an afterimage.

"Ray of Light Curse!"

Wenlai raises the wand and releases the skill.

A dazzling silver light that looked like an entity shot directly at the terrifying Human-faced Spider, but Human-faced Spider's body surface flashed with black smoke, and he easily withstood the silver light attack. Then his two spider legs swiped, and the energy protective shield made a sharp and harsh friction sound. Wenlai suddenly showed bloodless despair, rolled aside in embarrassment, and the summoned object was torn into pieces.

After seeing the prey escape, Human-faced Spider spit out a ball of green flames with ghostly laughter.

Wenlai gritted his teeth, the energy of the black dragon-patterned robe fluctuated, and a dragon-patterned phantom protective shield suddenly appeared, flicking away the green flame.

Boom!

I don't know what secret Magic Props Wenlai used, which erupted with astonishing energy fluctuations, and the dark red fire engulfed this Human-faced Spider. However, he was in such a state of embarrassment that before he could react any further, another Human-faced Spider's spider silk flashed and was suddenly tied to the wand in his hand.

With a burst of strong corrosive smoke, the spider silk actually cut off the wand and several of Wenlai's fingers.

"Ah!!!"

The old magician was wailing in pain. Inadvertently, a man-eating spider the size of a washbasin bit the old magician's neck. With the anesthesia and poison, he fainted after a moment.

the other side.

"Wuwuwu, I don't want to die..."

The fully armed Captain Ivan was crying and murmuring, constantly waving the metal sword. His eyes under the helmet showed despair after witnessing Master Wenlai being passed out by anesthesia.

Reilo waved Wind Kite Fan hard.

With a "whoosh", Cross Wind Slash easily divided a man-eating spider the size of a washbasin into four pieces, and green pus splashed down. Fortunately, Reilo opened the energy protection shield scroll in time to isolate these terrible corrosive pus.

Just activating Wind Kite Fan this time consumes about a quarter of the energy of Reilo.

"Master Wenlai!"

Reilo hasn't given up yet and tries to call Wenlai. Only he can give him a chance to survive.

However, as Human-faced Spider continued to laugh hoarsely, more and more cobwebs wrapped around the old scholar's body, and Reilo's heart became heavier and heavier.

The energy protective shield became increasingly dim. At this moment, Reilo suddenly felt the final despair of the female student Xilan Duchy who was accidentally killed by him during the trip to the Furnace Mountains.

"No, you must calm down, you must calm down..."

Reilo forced himself to be rational and never give up. With a "buzzing" sound, more than a dozen Blood Burning Bee flew out. However, the moment Reilo was released, these primary adults were preyed on by the young man-eating spiders from all directions before they could understand what was going on.

Blood Burning Bee was reduced by nearly half in an instant. In desperation, Reilo put away the remaining Blood Burning Bee. At the moment Energy Shield was destroyed, the strong pressure poison bubble that had been accumulated for a long time was released. Inside was the Infant's Cry hallucinogen carefully prepared by Reilo.

Snap!

The poisonous bubble exploded, and the target was Human-faced Spider, which was flying toward him!

The pressure bubbles cannot harm this terrible life form. As for the hallucinogenic poison that Infant's Cry put its hope on, Human-faced Spider flew towards it with just a roll of black smoke on the surface of the body and was absorbed. In Reilo's almost stiff despair, his shoulder hurt, and he was actually bitten by a young poisonous spider.

"No..."

Reilo tried his best to struggle, but his strength was getting weaker and weaker, and he fell down with a "bang".
