Phantom God Sky Spider

"Ah, Mom..." Luna reverted to her usual dazed state.

"Remember what we said? It's not like you'll never see your mother again..." Skylar said with a smile.

"Yes, I've always believed that..." Luna looked up at Skylar, her eyes beginning to gleam with a hopeful light. "Skylar, you are a miracle to me. It's already incredible that I met you and got to know you on the train. Since you were able to find the Wrackspurt, you can surely help me see my mother, right?"

"Oh, my Luna, you really know how to give me a hard time—" Skylar chuckled, "But since you trust me so much, I certainly won't let you down."

Luna's cheeks flushed again. She threw herself into Skylar's arms, nestling her head against Skylar chest, and whispered, "I believe you. Whatever you say, I believe you."

Skylar buried his chin in Luna's soft blonde hair, gently stroking Luna back with his palm, but what he was thinking was—

Hmm, it seems that acquiring the Resurrection Stone should be put on the agenda soon.

In Skylar's original plan, he didn't want to touch the Resurrection Stone. It was a rare opportunity to plot against Dumbledore, and he wouldn't even need to lift a finger; he could be completely wiped out. Of Voldemort's Horcrux, Tom's Diary, the Slytherin's Locket, and the Ravenclaw's Diadem had already been dealt with; what remained were the Hufflepuff's Cup, the Gaunt Ring with the Resurrection Stone, Harry Potter, and one unknown.

The Golden Cup is in Gringotts, Skylar already has a complete and detailed plan regarding this Horcrux. The problem lies with the Resurrection Stone and Harry Potter. In Skylar's original plan, the Gaunt Ring was meant for Dumbledore to handle. After Dumbledore was injured by the Gaunt Ring, Harry Potter lost his protection; wouldn't it be up to Skylar to kill or deal with him?

Without Dumbledore, Harry Potter, protected by various mysterious forces of fate, was only immune to Voldemort's attacks. It was only because that fool Voldemort insisted on killing Harry himself that Harry survived; otherwise, if another wizard had intervened, Harry would have died countless times over.

However, this plan needs to be revised.

The first reason, of course, was his promise to Luna. Although Skylar knew the principle that those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles, and he did not mind using the most ruthless and cruel methods on his opponents and enemies—the fates of Hector Fawley and Lucida Slughorn were the best examples—this did not mean that he was a cold-blooded, ruthless, and heartless Dark Lord.

He still had feelings for his own people, not just his family and girlfriend, but also his other friends and allies. This invisible bond allowed him to feel like a living, breathing human being, not a killing machine, on this bloody path to supremacy. Skylar despised wizards who constantly said things like "women only slow down my wand-drawing speed," seeing them as essentially no different from eunuchs in the Muggle World of ancient China.

Even when it came to the innocent, Skylar adhered to the principle of minimizing harm to them. He held a deep reverence for life; every life was precious and worthy of cherishing.

Just don't block his way.

Therefore, Skylar intends to keep his promise to Luna.

The second reason was that he suddenly became interested in the magic on the Resurrection Stone. The wizarding world has existed for at least two thousand years, dating back to the time of the four great wizards of ancient Greece. The dead cannot be brought back to life, and the deceased cannot be resurrected. This has been an ironclad rule for over two thousand years. However, during his audience with "Fate" last month, he clearly heard "Fate" mention that "Death" could exempt him from going to the Afterlife.

So, Dumbledore was wrong. The "Deathly Hallows" may indeed have been made by the Peverell brothers, but "Death" is a real entity.

Recalling his vision Magic Eye Death when he saw the Avada Kedavra curse being cast, it's not hard to deduce that Death likely left a legacy on Earth, and the Peverell brothers and the inventor of the Avada Kedavra curse are clearly inheritors of Death's legacy.

This instantly elevated the importance of the Resurrection Stone to Skylar.

Inside the laboratory, the two lingered quietly for quite some time before Luna reluctantly left Skylar's embrace.

"Come on, I'll show you something else interesting," Skylar said softly.

The two walked to a rectangular breeding tank labeled "Acromantula Eggs".

"What... is this?" Luna stared intently at the creatures in the breeding tank, pondering as she asked. Inside the transparent crystal breeding tank, a group of translucent miniature spiders moved rapidly on their eight legs within the aquascape. Their bodies seemed to be coated with camouflage, constantly changing color with the surrounding aquascape. Unless observed up close, most people would not be able to spot them.

"This is a newly discovered variant of the Acromantula, which I have named the Phantom God Sky Spider," Skylar said, revealing the species' name.

"Ah, is it because of this ability to conceal oneself by changing colors?" Luna asked absentmindedly.

"That's only one reason," Skylar replied. "You should know that the Acromantula's natural enemy is the Basilisk, right? Because the Acromantula has an extremely wide field of vision, the Basilisk's ability to instantly kill with a gaze is an insurmountable nightmare for them."

Seeing Luna nod in understanding, Skylar continued, "The Phantom God Sky Spider has overcome this weakness."

"How can we overcome this?" Luna's eyes widened. In her mind, even if the Acromantula reduced the number of eyes, it would at most be less easily killed by the Basilisk's gaze, but there was no way to directly overcome this weakness.

"Watch this," Skylar carefully inserted his wand into the socket of a one-way gate, aimed it at a small spider, and cast a Freezing Spell. The spider immediately froze and revealed its true form.

The little spider was entirely crimson, Skylar guessed was due to the influence of the Red Cap skull. Where it originally had eight eyes, eight milky-white conjunctivae with no visible pupils had been formed.

"Are they blind?" Luna asked doubtfully. "They're certainly not afraid of Basilisk now, but they've also lost their vision, which is crucial for their hunting ability. It seems like a bad trade-off."

"You're not wrong to think that way, but—" Skylar smiled, "This Phantom God Sky Spider isn't as simple as you think." Immediately, Skylar released the Freezing Spell, and almost at the same moment, he released "Serpensortia," and with a bang, a two-headed snake inexplicably appeared in the breeding tank.

Under Skylar's control of his Parseltongue, the two-headed snake emitted a terrifying hissing sound, and its two heads were about to attack the spider swarm.

Just then, a dazzling white light suddenly burst forth from the milky-white conjunctiva of the Phantom God Sky Spider, instantly blinding the two heads and four eyes of the two-headed snake!

Almost simultaneously, the conjunctiva of the Phantom God Sky Spider opened, revealing eight eyes that gleamed red. Without any command, they pounced on the two-headed snake at the same time, spraying out large clumps of spider silk, which, like Mummy's shroud, tightly wrapped the two-headed snake.

The two-headed snake struggled fiercely while being enveloped, successfully knocking away several Phantom God Sky Spider with its body and crushing one or two smaller spiders that couldn't escape in time. The remaining smaller spiders made a move that Luna never expected—

They simultaneously emitted a sharp cry.

Even Luna, separated by a specially made crystal wall, felt dizzy and was supported from behind by Skylar's arm to prevent her from falling. Not to mention the two-headed snake, which was directly hit by the sonic wave. The two-headed snake fell into a complete daze, and its two heads swayed like it was drunk.

The spider silk enveloping the two-headed snake suddenly glowed with an eerie emerald green light. The two-headed snake let out a weak, mournful cry and was then reduced to invisible magic, disappearing into the air.

"See? The Phantom God Sky Spider's eyes have the ability to blind, with an effective range of at least ten feet, and in dim environments, the blinding effect can even reach thirty feet," Skylar continued. "Once the enemy is blinded, the Phantom God Sky Spider can regain its sight at any time and wrap the enemy up in its silk. And this silk is quite extraordinary; it contains powerful curse energy that can seal the opponent's magic. A wizard of normal skill, once wrapped up, probably wouldn't even be able to cast the Lumos."

Skylar sneered, "Even the likes of Dumbledore and Voldemort would likely be greatly affected in their ability to manipulate magic. Even if they tried to force their way through with their superior physical abilities, the Phantom God Sky Spider's mandibles could emit a dizzying chirping sound that directly attacks the mind."

Skylar concluded, "This species possesses abilities to blind, attack the mind, bind the body, and seal magic. It can be said to target the wizard's body, mind, and magic simultaneously, making it the most powerful weapon specifically designed to counter wizards."

"So I can only entrust them to the person I trust most, and now that person—" Skylar gripped Luna's shoulders tightly with both hands, staring intently into Luna eyes, "Is you, my dear Luna. Can I trust you?"

Luna's lips curved slightly, and she nodded, saying, "You can absolutely trust me." She reached out and stroked Skylar's face, speaking in a voice almost like singing, "Unwavering love is humanity's priceless treasure. I will always be loyal to you alone, until the end of the world, until the end of time, never betraying you, never forsaking you."

Even with Skylar's current state of mind, he had to admit that Luna was absolutely stunning to him at that moment.

Luna was definitely not the most beautiful girl he knew. In fact, to put it objectively, in Skylar's eyes, who was used to seeing beautiful women, Luna's appearance was nothing special. However, her ethereal and unique temperament deeply captivated his heart.

What follows is another ten minutes that are not suitable for children.

After a reluctant parting, Luna, accompanied by Skylar, began practicing controlling the Phantom God Sky Spider.

The Phantom God Sky Spider is more intelligent than the Wrackspurt. Although it has a stronger ability to fight independently, it also makes it several levels more difficult for insect manipulators to control.

The two practiced for several hours, and Luna, drenched in sweat, finally mastered the technique of controlling the Phantom God Sky Spider.

Because of its ability to spin webs, the Phantom God Sky Spider requires a higher level of formation. Finally, with Skylar's guidance, Luna successfully dispersed the hidden spiders in all directions, simultaneously spraying a large area of spider web towards the center. The coverage was as large as the Great Hall Hogwarts, which meant that if the timing was right, sealing hundreds of teachers and students in the entire school at the same time would not be a problem.

Skylar looked at the results of today's practice with satisfaction. He had to admit that the combination of the Insect Manipulator talent and the Phantom God Sky Spider produced even better results than he had expected.

He even came up with a name for this ultimate technique: "Ten Directions God-Binding" —Luna's exclusive ultimate technique!
