The battle in the tunnel was fierce and cruel!
Both sides did not have much room to dodge, and all that was left was to forcefully resist the attacks.
Grimm's side had the Howlers as a solid meat shield. With an endless supply of earth elemental essence, the Howlers' battle strength was almost limitless. Even though the number of spiders was slightly greater, they could not withstand the jesting of the three-headed devil hound behind them.
Grimm followed behind the two, the flames around him burning everything in the tunnel to ashes. Only the corpses of the spiders that the A.I. Chip felt had some research value would Grimm bend down to pick them up.
As for the spiders that tailed behind them, they were all devoured by a mysterious enemy in the darkness.
At the start, the ones that came to stop them were all big and small magic spiders of all shapes and sizes. There were tarantulas that were as large as mastiffs and could climb up the cave walls as if they were on flat ground. There were jumping spiders that were short and flattened, but their legs were thick and strong. There were also hunting spiders that were adept at spitting venom and had the ability to hunt from a distance …
Although these fellows all looked strange and ugly, they were still spider species after all. When Grimm and his party reached a hundred metres underground, the spiders that came out from the dark corners and forks were no longer limited to spiders. Instead, many spider monsters appeared.
Just like the corpses in the spider forest, they were obviously other species, but after being parasitized by some small magic spiders, they actually became members of the spider army.
Spider Demon Wolf, Spider Giant Ape, Spider Black Bear, Spider Gray Sack Beast, Spider Ogre …
There were only things that you could not think of, but there was nothing that the spiders could not do!
Along the way, even Grimm's calm demeanor had turned into one of trepidation. As for the three-headed devil hound, Anguja, he was even more furious, cursing at the Devil Hunter Spider Tula non-stop.
Only now did Anguja understand that many monsters in the Dark Forest would mysteriously disappear. They were all captured by Tula and turned into spider monsters with the characteristics of 'death warriors'.
The monsters that could be captured by Tula were not very powerful, and after being turned into spider monsters, their strength would also decline to a certain extent. However, just based on the fact that they did not fear death, they became the most annoying type of nest guards.
The other monsters had sentience and intelligence. They knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. They also knew how to advance and retreat when faced with the powerful Roaring Ones. They also knew how to make use of the rugged terrain to stop the Roaring Ones' fierce attacks. However, these spider demonic creatures clearly didn't know what death was. Even if they had to endure the violent attacks of the Roarer and Angujia, they still wanted to rush to their side.
This way, the spider demons wouldn't have any space to escape.
The Roaring Beast's Rock Spikes and Anguja's continuous barrage of three elemental spells could turn anyone who entered their attack range into a sieve. What these arachnids wanted was to 'bite' them with long-range attacks before they were turned into sieves.
If it was just one or two fellows who were not afraid of death, the Howler's rock armor, which was half a meter thick, could still withstand it. However, there were hundreds and thousands of arachnids charging at them from the front. The concentrated sorcery attacks quickly shattered the Howler's rock, and rocks flew everywhere.
Even the Three-headed Hellhound Anguja, who was hiding behind the Howler, was barking from the attacks. Its three heads spat wind blades, fireballs, and acid balls into the distance with all its might.
After enduring this' journey 'with great difficulty, just as the spider monsters were almost wiped out, a new type of creature appeared.
These were aberrant spiders that were as big as bulls. Their lower bodies were the lower limbs of black spiders, and they had eight hairy legs. Their upper bodies were covered in thick black fur, making them look like humans. They were waving two sharp and long blades in their hands. They stuck themselves to the walls and ceiling, pouncing out of the darkness like ferocious tigers.
The stone swords of the Howler shattered a few times, and the rock spikes that were as dense as raindrops pierced through their bodies and the large abdominal sac behind them. However, it still could not stop their courageous charge, and the ferocious attacks that were like waves of blades.
The Howler, who had been tortured so much since the start of the battle, finally could not withstand such violent attacks. The rock armor on its body shattered into pieces, revealing its slightly slender body of the Stone Elemental.
Before seeing that Devil Hunter Spider Tula, the Howler couldn't leave at this time.
Grimm grunted and took large strides forward. A bright red ring of fire was released from his body, and all the aberrant spiders that came into contact with the ring of fire staggered back.
Ring of Resistance!
Taking advantage of the four or five aberrant spiders that were crowded together, Grimm lightly lifted the Destructive Flames Wizard Staff in his left hand, and a Crimson Flame Storm exploded with them at the center.
Although Grimm didn't transform, his fire spells had improved tremendously thanks to the unexpected fusion of energy. The power of his fire spells had reached a shocking 130 degrees.
The strength of such an attack was not something that ordinary magical creatures could withstand with just their flesh and magic resistance.
Almost as soon as the Crimson Flame Storm engulfed the aberrant spiders, the aberrant spiders screamed in pain and crawled out of the sea of fire. Although they had crawled out, their bodies were still burning with terrifying elemental flames that could not be extinguished by external forces.
Some of the aberrant spiders rolled on the ground, hoping to use the damp soil to extinguish the flames. Some of the aberrant spiders continued to fearlessly charge at Grimm, hoping to perish together with him.
However, no matter how hard the aberrant spiders tried, the stubborn elemental flames could not be extinguished. They even spread to the insides of their bodies, burning fiercely between their flesh and organs. The moment the latter charged into Grimm's Inferno Domain, the flames inside and outside of their bodies attacked them from both sides. Before they could even reach Grimm, they were burned to ashes by the demonic flames that soared into the sky.
Grimm slowly walked forward, using huge lava fireballs to open a path. He blew up the aberrant spiders one by one, and then used the Flame Barrier to slowly roast them to death. Everywhere he passed, the passage was filled with violent flame shockwaves, and the wails of the aberrant spiders as they fell to the ground.
Of course, it was also mixed with the pungent smell of burnt meat after it was roasted!
Finally, after blowing up the last aberrant spider, Grimm and his party stepped into the eerie cave hidden deep underground.
"You're finally here!" In the depths of the dark cave, a large mass of thick black shadows lay there. Its strange green compound eyes flickered, and its gaze towards Grimm was filled with deep hatred.
The Flame Barrier around Grimm's body was like a huge red lantern, instantly illuminating the wide cave.
This was a huge cave made of greyish-brown rock. The ground was filled with crisscrossing stalagmites and stone pillars, and a large number of rock spikes hung down from the ceiling.
It was exactly the same as the outside. Everywhere was covered in pale white spider webs, and there were white cocoons of different sizes stuck to the spider webs. Looking at the way they wriggled, it seemed like they were wrapped up in living things.
The corners of the spider hall were filled with densely packed follicles. Every time one of the follicles burst, a strange spider the size of a fist would crawl out and disappear into the spider webs.
As for the king of this place, the Hunter Spider Tura, it was crawling in a large spider web. Its mountain-like body was filled with holes of various sizes, and countless small spiders were entering and exiting it, as if they were repairing its damaged carapace.
Behind it, the originally spindle-shaped belly had also shrunk at this moment, and from a hole that looked like an anus, a pungent mucus was continuously flowing out.
The terrifying battle had caused Tula to suffer greatly. If it hadn't devoured three or four descendants with the strength of a Magus, it wouldn't have been able to recover from the injuries it had suffered so easily.
Now that it saw Grimm chasing after it, it could not avoid the fight due to its dignity as a lord of monsters. It could only crawl there and stare viciously at the bastards who had broken into its chamber.
"Good, very good …" Tura's ferocious petal-like mouth rubbed against each other, producing sparks. "I'm curious. This should be your first time in my spider cave. In that case, what method did you use to pass through the maze I created and find this place directly? "
Obviously, this question was bothering it. According to its estimation, even if Grimm and his group could pass through the underground labyrinth, it would still take them more than seven to eight hours. With this time difference, it would be more than enough for it to hatch the mutated magic spider it dreamed of.
After all, this was the first time it had hunted a monster leader!
But now, Grimm and his group had not made the slightest mistake. They had actually followed the safest and most convenient path to enter its chamber. This … How could Tura not be shocked?!
"I don't think I need to answer your questions!" Grimm curled his lips in disdain and said coldly, "Villains die because they talk too much. It's better for you to die with your doubts …"
Following Grimm's mental wave, the Roar's Giant Rock Shatter, the Three-headed Hellhound's tri-elemental magic attack, the Rotting's Ball of Acid and Grimm's Fire Core Explosion exploded almost at the same time. Violent and ferocious witchcraft streaked across the hall like a storm, pouring down on Tula who was lying motionless on the ground.
After the first wave of attacks, the whole team cooperated and prepared for the second wave of attacks …
However, just as the wave of spells engulfed Tura's body, countless little spiders crawled out from the spider webs, stalagmites, stone pillars and cracks in the rock stratum in front of and behind Grimm's team, swarming towards them.
At the same time, their vision suddenly darkened. An enormous figure quickly dropped down from the ceiling above their heads. Eight terrifying limbs that were as sharp as blades were like eight terrifying spears that could destroy everything. They whistled through the air as they fiercely stabbed towards them!
