Of the three clones, Gustavo has the most impressive information panel, with a total of 10 talent abilities alone. In addition to the talents he naturally possesses due to his Epic bloodline, his physical, mental, and energy attributes have reached 31 points each, and he has also awakened corresponding Attribute Talent.

In addition, there's the newly acquired Star Capture User profession.

This is a highly promising Transcendent profession, exclusive to the Dragon-Hunting Spider Clan. It was created by Queen Mitrola. It allows them to control the great power of gravity, which explains why the Spider Mom could pull meteorites down from space.

By the time Spider Mom reaches this level, the two core abilities of her profession, [Star Capture] and [Gravity Control], are both at least level 40 or 50.

The ability to Star Capture alone can provide her with four or five times the energy intensity. The energy intensity of a creature of this level is already terrifying, and to increase it by four or five times is simply astonishing.

Not to mention that Star Capture also amplifies gravitational Transcendent abilities, so thinking about it this way, pulling a meteorite down from space isn't actually that difficult~

On the ground, Gustavo supported his body with his eight limbs like pillars, holding his breath and concentrating, trying to unleash the power he had just mastered.

Gravitational!

An invisible wave spread outwards, and within a hundred-meter radius centered on him, gravity suddenly intensified, but not by much. As Gustavo reduced the range of his ability, the gravity became stronger and stronger.

At this moment, Mora curiously approached, and Gustavo smiled mischievously, suddenly changing the gravitational field into a repulsive field and expanding its range until it enveloped Mora.

Mora cried out in surprise, her body slowly floating up, suspended in mid-air like a hydrogen balloon, her eight claws kicking incessantly, her body spinning like a spindle.

"You really have become Star Capture User!" Mora exclaimed, her mood instantly turning dejected. Her brother was far superior to her, which was hard for the fiercely competitive Mora to accept.

"I was born first!" Mora kept muttering to herself. Just then, the anti-gravity field that had been applied to her suddenly disappeared, and Mora fell to the ground with a thud.

"What are you doing?" Mora glared angrily at Gustavo.

"Out of mana." Gustavo spread his paws innocently.

Gravity Control is indeed very energy-intensive.

Of course, Gustavo didn't expend much energy in such a short time; his main purpose was to tease his sister, though he would never admit to that.

Although Mora did not take up the Star Capture User profession, her Inherited Memory contained a lot of information about racial professions. Of course, she knew that Gustavo was lying. However, she couldn't fight against his superiors. She was no match for her brother before, and now that Gustavo had advanced to the Tier Five and become Star Capture User, she was even less of a match for him.

"No way, I'm going to work out! One day, I'll hang you up and whip you a hundred times!" Mora left in a huff, not knowing how long her enthusiasm for exercise would last.

Gustavo continued to familiarize himself with his new abilities, strands of bright silver energy silk weaving through the air, creating all sorts of intricate and complex patterns.

These energy spider silks are incredibly tough, almost solid, and have a crystalline luster. This isn't just due to the enhancement from their core class abilities; the Dragon-Hunting Spider themselves possess extremely high energy toughness—otherwise, how could they capture their prey?

After several hours of practice, Gustavo had roughly figured out his new fighting style.

If the enemy is far away, release energy spider silk to bind, cut, or use it as a medium to control gravity, employing various gravity skills for mid- to long-range attacks.

The Dragon-Hunting Spider's energy web is perfectly compatible with the Star Capture User class. The web itself can be used as a gravity conductor, releasing a variety of gravity attacks by weaving the web into different shapes.

Gravity Blade, Planetary Devastation, Almighty Push, and Universal Pull can all be used to bend Space-Time with high-intensity gravity, achieving advanced stealth capabilities. Alternatively, they can compress the gravity at a specific point to collapse space, creating a wormhole for long-distance space jumps...

These are not Gustavo's wild imaginations. In the Inherited Memory, countless Dragon-Hunting Spider predecessors have played with gravity to an extreme degree, with all sorts of outrageous maneuvers that are beyond imagination.

Furthermore, the energy spider silk is also very strong. If it is kept thin enough and the structure between the energy particles is reinforced by gravity, making it a terrifying weapon similar to nano-cutting wire, it should be very useful for surprise attacks, one-on-one combat, or large-scale slaughter and head harvesting.

If the enemy is close enough, then there's nothing to say. Although becoming Star Capture User grants the ability to control gravity, the Dragon-Hunting Spider's greatest strength remains melee combat, especially for Gustavo. He will show his enemies what an explosive scene it is when Void Predator uses martial arts techniques.

After summarizing his combat style, Gustavo shifted his attention to his luck attribute, which had increased by another 3 points to reach 20, and he was somewhat troubled by this.

As their strength grows, their soul power and life rank increase, and their innate ability [Luck Deprivation] gradually becomes more active.

He has recently sensed that something is wrong.

It wasn't themselves, but Mora and Bradley.

The two Dragon-Hunting Spider are getting increasingly unlucky; Bradley Western Capital while eating last time—can you believe it?

It's a laughing stock; the terrifying Void Predator choked on its food...

This incident left Bradley, who was already not very outgoing, withdrawn for quite a while. The poor little guy kept thinking it was because of him.

Mora continued to laugh maniacally, unaware that an unexpected disaster might befall her the next moment.

Gustavo figured that if he continued to stay with the siblings, it wouldn't be long before a series of disasters befall him.

He got hit by a rock while walking, choked while bathing in a lava pool, and accidentally punctured his lung with his own blade while playing...

A real-life God of Death is about to unfold in the cave...

Spider Mom is incredibly powerful, Luck Deprivation hasn't yet reached that level of awakening, so it won't affect her. Therefore, the only option left is to pick on the weakest link.

In other words, only Mora and Bradley were unlucky; the super doubled amount applies.

Although he often teases the two siblings, it's just normal playful fighting between parents and doesn't affect their relationship.

The Dragon-Hunting Spider have strong kinship ties, which deeply influenced Gustavo. He could be cruel and ruthless to other creatures, but he maintained enough warmth only towards his blood relatives.

Of course, sometimes this warmth might be a little too harsh, but those are minor issues, nothing to worry about.
