With the fire crackling, Burn and Sylutia were sitting next to the fire, turning over the barbecue on the fire.
Smelling the aroma of barbecue, she sprinkled a little salt and spices again and waited for the meat slices to be cooked.
In the darkness, a shadow slowly approached the girl, and the silver-haired figure in the field of vision got closer and closer, until when it was several meters away, it suddenly jumped out and stabbed down with its sharp fangs.
"Click!"
There was a crisp clicking sound in the air, which meant that it did not bite a real object, but the fangs collided with each other, making a startling sound.
On the other side of the camp, Sylutia jumped out of the air and landed on the ground in surprise.
Long before she was stationed, she converted her Aspect Power into "Alien Star", which made it easier to fight and escape from emergencies. She didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly.
At this time, with the help of the firelight, Sylutia could clearly see the appearance of the creature in front of him. It looked like "White-Stink Spider" magnified several times, but its appearance was more sinister, with terrifying white fluff on its body, and a pair of extremely huge fangs, with dark red color at the tips of the fangs.
However, the most eye-catching thing was the eight blood-red eyes. When Giant Spider missed the target, the eight eyes moved around and quickly locked onto Sylutia who appeared not far from the camp.
After determining the target, it took action again and rushed towards Sylutia at an alarming speed.
In the blink of an eye, the spider's figure swayed and came in front of him. Sylutia's heart was alarmed, and he had to use his "Alien Star" Aspect Power ability to briefly travel through the gaps in time and space.
After dodging again, before she could stand still, the opponent continued to pounce, but this time, Sylutia stopped dodging. She took a deep breath, and the blood circulation in her body suddenly accelerated. She held the handle of the knife with one hand and drew out the long blade in an instant.
A beautiful arc of the knife flashed in the air, hitting the spider's forelimbs and tearing open several holes. After a brief fight, Sylutia turned over and jumped up. Using his toes on the tree trunk, he jumped and moved to avoid the spider's subsequent attacks.
Sharpness's fangs gnawed into the trunk of the tree and were then pulled out. The tree, which was originally growing healthily, quickly withered and its leaves turned yellow and black.
In the next few minutes, Sylutia and this spider continued to fight in the forest. With the blessing of "Moonlight Breathing Technique", Sylutia could barely keep up with the speed of this spider, and with the Sharpness advantage of the weapon, it continued to cause wounds to the opponent.
If it continues like this, the Giant Spider on the opposite side will definitely lose due to exhaustion of physical strength.
As if realizing something was wrong, the spider suddenly stopped chasing and began to escape in the opposite direction.
Alas, are you running away again? Sylutia I don't remember this is the first time I have encountered a monster that can run away.
Considering the purpose of this adventure, Sylutia had to change direction and catch up with the spider, but as she approached, the spider's abdomen suddenly spurted out white threads. In an emergency, Sylutia's body flashed to avoid the unknown thread attack. In the few seconds that wasted, the spider ran further and further away, making it difficult for her to catch up.
The first meeting between the two sides ended in a draw.
Stopping, Sylutia looked at the end of the dark forest, shook his head, and returned to the camp where he was stationed.
She had to think of a new way to fight the opponent. Fortunately, she had finished analyzing the spider's information in the previous fight.

Is it actually Nesting Insect? Sylutia is a little strange. She has seen a description of this advanced method in a book. It requires a creature to stay in that place for five years and defeat a large number of opponents during this period before it can condense Core Card.
This is an advanced ritual that many creatures can instinctively do. Although the required conditions are time-consuming, they are not demanding.
Nesting Insect, Nesting Beast, Nesting Dragon are all manifestations of this advancement method. Once the advancement is successful, as long as you stay in the nest, your own strength will be greatly improved, making it difficult for foreign enemies to invade.
Although there are many benefits and the difficulty is not high, the disadvantage of this advanced method is also obvious, that is, you cannot leave the nest too far, which naturally limits the range of activities.
There used to be powerful imperial dynasties that took advantage of this and specially cultivated such monsters in Mausoleum to guard Mausoleum to prevent tomb robbers and invasions. Because of the existence of the nest, the monsters guarding the tomb will stay there for a long time and will not leave even if they advance in the future.
When I fought with him just now, it was not in the lair, and its strength was not as good as other third-level creatures. It was like a blank slate.
After analyzing and understanding this point, Sylutia temporarily put aside his plans to pursue and began to think about how to deal with it.
If we fight in the opponent's lair, the result will not be as smooth as before.
After sorting out the information, Sylutia discovered that the barbecue on the fire had been carbonized and burned.
"Ah, my dinner."
As a last resort, Sylutia took out a piece of barbecue and cooked it again, and cooked some wheat porridge as a staple food to supplement nutrition.
The rest of the night was spent quietly.
When he woke up the next day, Sylutia led the horse and continued to move forward to explore the nest of Giant Spider.
She took out the "Emerald Eye" potion and dripped it into her eyes. One eye was dyed emerald green, and then she looked into the distance again.
Countless plant spectra appeared in her field of vision. With her keen perception, she continued to analyze and finally found clues in one of the directions.
Found it
There must be the big spider's lair.
She stopped and stood looking from a distance. At this moment, her eyes of different colors, one green and one blue, looked particularly mysterious and had a strange charm and temptation.
