"So, your purpose in coming to the Jilong Highlands is to seek revenge on this Dragon-Hunting Spider?" The Golden-Scaled Beast, Wotu, looked at Frodo suspiciously.
"Yes, my disciple was almost killed by him. As his teacher, it's only natural that I have to get revenge," Frodo said without changing his expression.
"Tch..." Wotu opened his mouth wide and let out a sneer, his circular golden pupils looking at the dark Mage in front of him with disdain. "Don't think I don't know, you must be coveting the bloodline of the Dragon-Hunting Spider, right? You spellcasters are as annoying as ever."
As the possessor of Legendary blood, although Frodo's target was not him, this behavior still made Wotu very unhappy.
Frodo remained silent after hearing Wotu's sarcastic remarks.
Wotu didn't want to talk to this dark Mage any longer, and said in a low voice, "In that case, Arthur is mine, and you can deal with the Dragon-Hunting Spider yourself."
After saying this, Wotu dismantled the Sanctuary and flew towards the Silver Light's base. The four Legendary of the Demon Eye did not stop him, pretending not to have seen anything.
To Wotu's surprise, Frodo also brought Wight along to the Silver Light base.
"Weren't you looking for the Dragon-Hunting Spider? Why are you following me?"
Frodo said with a half-smile, "According to my disciple's senses, that Dragon-Hunting Spider is located at the Silver Light's base."
"Huh? You mean, Arthur is in cahoots with this Dragon-Hunting Spider?" Wotu wasn't stupid and quickly realized what was going on.
"Heh, it seems our fundamental goals are aligned." Foluoduo smiled faintly.
Wotu swayed his long tail, puzzled. "When did we Ashes get involved with the Dragon-Hunting Spider?"
With that in mind, Wotu and Frodo descended upon the camp together.
At this moment, Arthur and Gustavo were in the council hall.
Feeling the terrifying aura of undisguised hostility and malice emanating from the outside world, Arthur's legs went weak, and his face fell.
Gustavo, on the other hand, remained quite calm.
Eat and drink as you please.
"Tsk, I didn't expect to use up the Spider Mom's spatial marker so soon. Life is unpredictable," Gustavo thought to himself, glancing at the absent-minded Arthur beside him, and said irritably, "Look at you, so pathetic. Two Legendary scared you like this?"
"That's Legendary, Legendary, do you understand?" Arthur almost shouted these words with a sob in his voice.
"We're doomed! I knew it, I must have messed with something nasty." Arthur slumped to the ground in despair.
"Dirty stuff?"
Gustavo's expression darkened. "What do you mean?"
"Alas, Keaton, it's all my fault." Arthur suddenly grabbed the Imp puppet's hand. "If I hadn't been entangled by evil forces and plagued by bad luck, you wouldn't have been implicated."
"Huh?!" Gustavo was a little confused; what was all this about?
However, before he could ask any questions, with a loud crash, the council hall broke off from its base and gradually rose into the air.
A colossal beast clad in golden armor gradually revealed its majestic Haki form.
"Keleite Beast..." Gustavo murmured, then his gaze shifted and narrowed, "A dark Mage..."
"It's him!" Wight exclaimed excitedly, pointing to Gustavo's true form, a mere two-meter-tall red spider. "There's no mistake, I'll remember his scent even in death!"
"Oh?" Frodo exclaimed in surprise, looking at the red spider lying on the ground.
The Sanctuary spread, enveloping the red spider, and only then could one sense the extremely pure Life Essence within the latter, as well as its noble and domineering Epic bloodline.
"You got it without any effort at all!" Frodo sneered.
Wotu also looked at Gustavo's true form with curiosity, his bloodline throbbing even more intensely.
At this point, Gustavo stopped pretending and transferred his main consciousness from the Imp puppet to his main body.
With a series of cracking sounds, the red spider rapidly swelled, and its body turned pitch black.
One after another, menacing spikes pierced out from inside the bone armor, and muscles bulged out.
A fierce and domineering aura, like that of a Savage beast, burst forth from his body, which was several meters tall, and surged forth like a torrent.
"Good, good, good!!" Frodo exclaimed three times in succession, his eyes fixed intently on Gustavo's body with fascination. "Truly worthy of Epic bloodline! This physique, this aura... if I could obtain it..."
Wotu felt a chill run down his spine and took two steps to the side. Frodo's state reminded him of some unpleasant memories from his childhood, which filled him with disgust.
"Brother Jilong, you..."
Arthur was stunned, tilting his head back, his pupils reflecting Gustavo's ferocious and enormous figure, as well as the familiar expression that appeared in his eight eerie green pupils.
"Get behind me," Gustavo said.
Since the space marker is triggered anyway, saving one or two makes no difference.
Why not bring Arthur along? He's quite an interesting guy.
"Oh, oh!" Arthur nodded quickly, about to hide behind Gustavo.
However, at that moment, Wotu extended its claws and grabbed at Arthur.
The Legendary Golden-Scaled Beast was incredibly fast. Although Gustavo used his Spider-Sense to detect Wotu's movements, his physical body couldn't react in time.
He could only watch helplessly as Wotu's sharp claws slowly approached Arthur.
The latter looked utterly desperate.
However, no one expected that at the critical moment, a cloud of black mist suddenly rose from Arthur's chest and transformed into a dark raven with eighteen pairs of wings and hundreds of eerie eyes.
Hundred-Eyed Nether Crow!
"Holy crap, there really is something dirty?" Gustavo was stunned.
