Gao Peng narrowed his eyes and jumped down from the second-floor balcony. He patted the dust off his clothes and called out, "Dumb, Abba, Flamy, Xiao Huang, come here."
Flamy was a long-range turret attacker, Dumb was Gao Peng's strongest familiar, Abba was his mount and meat shield, and although Xiao Huang's ability was limited, it could still be very effective as long as it was used well.
As for Da Zi …
He saw that Gao Peng had taken all the other familiars away, but he and Dumb were left behind.
He immediately lost it and blocked Gao Peng's path. "You're biased, you're biased."
Gao Peng squatted down and held down the agitated Da Zi. "Are you as strong as Dumb?"
Da Zi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head sadly.
"Can you fly as fast as Flamy?"
Da Zi still shook his head.
"Can you take a beating as well as Abba?"
Da Zi was on the verge of tears.
"Sigh, one last request. If you can beat Xiao Huang, I'll take you there."
Da Zi glanced at Xiao Huang, who was about to evolve into a muscular demonic duck, and lowered his head regretfully.
Gao Peng sighed and calmed Da Zi down. "That's why you should train at home …"
Looking at Da Zi's back, Gao Peng silently added in his heart, It's too dangerous this time.
.....
Half an hour later, Gao Peng arrived at the exit of Yuzhou City's North Road.
The exit led to the outskirts of Yuzhou City. It was a flat road that led all the way to the mountains, but this road only extended for less than two kilometers before it suddenly broke off. A bottomless canyon led to a bottomless abyss, cutting the road in half.
The canyon was dozens of meters wide, and several thick tree trunks were built on top of it to act as suspension bridges. However, only a few people walked on this road. Most people left from the north road to the mountains.
Looking down from above, it looked like a huge tree that had fallen to the ground after being cut in half. Countless branches extended in all directions from the broken body of the tree, connecting the millions of mountains into a single whole.
Outside the exit of the North Road, a huge beast stood quietly, attracting the attention of passersby.
The Horrifying Murderous Female Spider emitted an invisible aura, causing the familiars that passed by it to tremble and slow down.
"Wow, this is a Lord-tier familiar, isn't it?" At the checkpoint set up by the military in front of the North Road, a soldier clicked his tongue in wonder. As a soldier on guard duty, he had seen many familiars. It wasn't even his first time seeing a Lord-tier familiar.
But no matter how many times he saw a Lord-tier familiar, he was always envious.
Although the Horrifying Murderous Female Spider didn't release its Lord-tier aura, its huge size and terrifying aura made him think that it was a Lord-tier familiar.
Although not all Lord-tier familiars were huge, monsters that were huge to a certain extent were usually Lord-tier familiars.
This was because when a monster's size reached such a level, its body would definitely contain a terrifying amount of power. Under such circumstances, its body alone would be a killing machine!
"Young Master Gao, you're here." Huang Ya, who was sitting on the back of the Horrifying Murderous Female Spider, stood up when she saw Gao Peng coming out of the North Road's gate.
The Horrifying Murderous Female Spider spat out a large amount of snow-white spider silk that connected to the ground. The sticky, snow-white spider silk quickly solidified and dried.
Huang Ya nimbly jumped on the spider silk and slid down.
When Huang Ya landed, the Horrifying Murderous Female Spider closed its mouth, and the spider silk was sucked back into its mouth like a bunch of noodles.
"Let's go. We'll go find a friend first." After saying that, Gao Peng got on Abba, and Huang Ya also got on the back of the Horrifying Murderous Female Spider. The two of them rushed into the forest, one in front and one behind the other.
"That little spider looks a little like the son of the big spider."
"I think so."
"But one of them is silver, and the other is black."
"Do you know about genetic mutation?"
There were intermittent discussions behind them.
Gao Peng's face darkened.
The mountain path was very steep. Fortunately, there were only two spiders. Spiders could move around easily in the mountains, and their slender legs could pass through the trees. The Horrifying Murderous Female Spider's speed wasn't affected by the environment.
On the other hand, Abba's speed was affected by the environment. It was slightly slower than when it was in the hilly areas.
After passing through a river, the faint sound of a stream could be heard in front of them.
The scenery around them changed rapidly. A winding stream passed through the mountains. This stream was a little familiar … Before Gao Peng could think about it, a giant leech suddenly jumped out of the stream below them.
The leech's pitch-black body was translucent in the water, but the parts exposed to the air were pure black.
"Swoosh —" A silver spider leg sliced through the air like a scalpel, cutting the air in half.
The black leech was instantly cut in half, and fell into the water with a splash.
Only then did Gao Peng remember that he had passed by this stream before. In this stream, there was a leech monster that lived in an aquatic environment. It could become invisible in the water.
It seemed that the Horrifying Murderous Female Spider's aura had intimidated the leech monsters in the stream. Other than the Iron-Headed Baby, the rest of the leech monsters hid in the water obediently, quietly watching Gao Peng and the rest leave.
Only when Gao Peng and the rest were far away did they emerge from the bottom of the water, greedily breathing in the air.
After walking for about two hours, Gao Peng finally stopped.
"It's around here. The Mountain Spirit lives around here."
They were already deep in the mountains. The forest was dense, and thick trees were uprooted from the depths of the earth. The dense canopies were like dark clouds, casting a large shadow on the ground.
He found a high place and looked around. The Mountain Spirit's physical characteristics and huge size made them extremely easy to identify. As long as they were within a certain range, they could be found clearly.
However, Gao Peng could not find the Mountain Spirit even after searching for more than ten miles. He only found some traces left behind by the Mountain Spirit on the ground.
Strips of soil were dug up from the ground, and some plant roots that were embedded in the soil were exposed.
There was a rainstorm last night, and there were piles of rainwater in many holes. A few dead leaves were floating on the surface of the murky rainwater, quietly swirling.
Gao Peng frowned. For some reason, he suddenly thought of the Golden Hands.
The Mountain Spirit's personality was relatively lazy, and they would not move around randomly.
Recently, the Golden Hands happened to be in this forest. Was there a connection between the two?
"Let's go after them." Gao Peng said. He then paused and said to Flamy, "Flamy, fly into the sky first. If you find any traces of the Mountain Spirit or other humans, tell us."
