In the early morning of the next day, the orc camp was in a mess. Jon directed the spiders to carry useful materials and orc corpses in the camp, as well as a large amount of food stored in the orc cellar.
The orcs also raised a lot of cattle and sheep in the camp. Most of them were slaughtered in last night's carnival. Many of them have been eaten. The remaining intact ones cannot be wasted. They can be wrapped in spider silk and put several more. months.
Spiders have no concept of captivity, but the cult believes in the 'net of hunting'. Even if these cattle and sheep are alive, they can only be used as fresh food reserves.
In addition, there are more than a dozen adventurers imprisoned in the orc camp, almost all of them mercenaries who were unfortunately captured while completing tasks near Xiefeng Ridge.
After witnessing the massacre of the orc camp by the spider army, these desperate adventurers were either shocked, fearful, or worshipful.
No matter which one, they already have the potential to become Ariel's disciples. As for the work of subduing and training, it can be regarded as a test left to Jon.
Although this barbarian is not very bright, he has a good understanding of the beliefs that Ariel spreads after he changed his job. At least he is barely qualified as a chief priest.
In addition, iron ore was also found in the orcs' caves. Although it is not a precious metal, iron ore is not too much for any territory.
There is no need to worry about forging weapons or tools, which is probably why the orcs settled here.
However, it is a bit troublesome to develop the iron ore here. It would be a waste if the believers in the cult are used as slaves.
Ariel's priesthood has nothing to do with enslaving coolies or cruel rule. A large amount of coolies may cause these cows and horses to lose their corresponding beliefs.
It seems like it's time to plan to introduce a second batch of players.
The last step is the advancement of the guard spiders. After capturing a large amount of food from the orcs, and devouring a lot of high-level orcs, the eight guard spiders that are about to break through the level have now begun to advance.
This process should have been carried out back at the lair, but Xu Yang directly ordered the spider guards to start on the spot.
Just like forming a cocoon, after the spider guards have stored enough energy, they wrap their bodies in spider webs into large balls. Each of these large balls has a diameter of more than three meters, and they are particularly spectacular when lined up in the orc camp.
Usually, the development in the cocoon can take as short as a few days or as long as several months. Even if there is sufficient food, the probability of the spider guards advancing into giant spiders is only 30%.
However, Xu Yang didn't plan to wait that long and directly extracted the original life energy in the system and began to help the guarding spiders advance.
As the guard spiders were incorporated into Xu Yang's small system, these spiders also became Xu Yang's "favourites" to a certain extent.
Light, invisible and intangible to mortals, surged out of Xu Yang's body and scattered on eight large cocoons.
The bodies of the spider guards in the cocoons began to grow rapidly. The curled-up spider legs became longer and longer, and at the same time they became harder and sharper. As their bodies gradually grew larger, they also grew halberd-like spikes on their backs. The canine teeth in the mouth also grow one after another, row after row.
Outside, only eight already huge spider cocoons were seen being swollen and stretched bigger and bigger, until they were four or five meters tall. The surface of the cocoon began to crack, and the sharp spider leg spines pierced the surrounding sides of the cocoon. Two or three... then gradually stood up, with more and more cracks on the surface of the cocoon, until it reached a certain limit, blooming like a flower, leaving behind fragments of spider webs and the shell of the original body. and blood.
The giant spiders are one after another, standing five or six meters tall, and their bodies are seven or eight meters wide. In terms of size alone, they are already comparable to many young dragons. If they can complete the final advancement and become the 'Mother of Spiders', they will The limit of growth will make it possible to come into contact with the realm of mythology.
Once she touches the realm of mythology, the Mother of Spiders will be as powerful as an ancient dragon.
It has to be said that Ariel's World of Warcraft spider race is indeed unique, or the advancement system in the world of the 'Warcraft' race is indeed the cradle of the strong.
It's no wonder that when Ariel and their world were devoured, the life of that world was not projected onto the Zea continent. Otherwise, it would be hard to say what form it would be in on the continent now.
Of course, if Xu Yang hadn't provided a lot of primary life energy, it wouldn't have been so easy for the spider guards to advance, and it would have been even more difficult to advance to become the Mother of Spiders.
As for contacting the realm of mythology, even if Ariel wanted to help, it would be difficult to do so.
In the era when Warcraft Spiders were at their peak, that is, in the years before Ariel became a god, there were only six mythical spiders enshrined around Ariel.
The Spider Guards advanced successfully, and eight level 4 spiders were added to the Spider Lair. As long as one more Legendary Warcraft was added, it would be considered above average among the legendary Warcraft Lair materials that Xu Yang had seen before.
The most important thing is the number of soldiers under his command.
After experiencing two massive losses in succession, there are now only more than 500 first- and second-order small spiders left.
However, the giant spiders will enter several high-quality egg-laying periods after completing the advancement. As long as there is sufficient food, the number of spiders in the spider nest will soon exceed tens of thousands.
After the breakthrough was completed, Xu Yang did not wait and rushed directly to the top of the mountain with the giant spiders that had just broken through.
There are three fourth-level wolf kings in the Beifeng wolf pack, which represent three wolf dens respectively. Each wolf den has twenty or thirty giant north wind wolves, and the total number of them is less than a hundred.
The three wolf kings are all in their early thirties. Together, the three of them may not have a problem facing the original giant spider lord. But now, facing eight giant spiders, the wolves can only choose to flee.
Everea has been watching the battle by Xu Yang's side since last night. As the secretary who knows her master best, Ifreya knows that she must stand aside when her master is showing off.
And when the master needs to show off, he must attack hard.
When Ifreya helped Xu Yang get through the relationship with the Gelffindor nobles, she had already extracted a large system reward. In addition, she had eaten all kinds of food in Gelffindor, and her strength was the first to approach five. level.
But if you want to break through, you also need opportunities and conditions.
Shoggoths are abyssal creatures, and there is no clear progression tree. From ordinary shoggoths to shoggoth lords, it seems to be an advancement outside the abyss, but in essence it is just a mutation, or just an accumulation of strength. It is a natural change to a certain extent.
Therefore, the only way to complete the advancement is to continuously accumulate different types of organic matter and life energy until quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes.
Depending on the type of organic matter accumulated, different abilities will be improved after advancement.
Just when the time for thinking had passed, the Wolf King, who had used Evelea as a breakthrough point, had died in a whimper.
The Northern Wind Wolf's magical talents are all focused on the body. Because it is compatible with the wind element, the Northern Wind Wolf is good at using the energy of the wind element to increase speed and jumping, thereby improving mobility.
In fact, from this point of view, Beifeng Wolf is often used as a mount, but it is relatively useless for Xu Yang. After all, Xu Yang can fly. Even if he really wants to ride it, Veldora obviously has to pull the wind.
Ifreya, who had not eaten wild game for a long time, had a big appetite. After eating a wolf king, it was not enough, so she added a giant north wind wolf as a side dish.
It wasn't until noon that the hunt finally came to an end. In order to leave some advanced materials for the giant spider lord, Xu Yang stopped Ifreya from having a big meal.
At the same time, under Xu Yang's instructions, thirty-four wolf cubs escaped.
Some of the wolf cubs who escaped may escape from Xiefeng Ridge, but more may try to survive in Xiefeng Ridge.
The meat of the Beifeng Wolf tastes good, and if you don't ride it, you can leave it to future players. Killing it like this is not in line with Xu Yang's concept of sustainable development.
"Successfully annihilated the orc camp and the North Wind Wolves"
Enlightenment in the spider field, because I gained the favor of Ariel, the spider god, and the spider field has been improved. "
"Acquire complete spider characteristics, gain spider intuition, weave webs, compound eyes, secrete venom, and secrete acid.
Open the evil eye inherited from the ancestor spider, the eye of corrosion and the eye of disaster."
"I commanded the spider lair to occupy one side, and the spider domain was improved. The worship of eight giant spiders to me was close to that of a god.
The Spider Lord has advanced to the Spider Dominator, and no spider creature except the mythical spider can resist my orders. "
"Affected by the Spider Dominator, the influence of the Fear Field is expanded to 500 meters. Enemy units affected by the Fear Field may trigger panic, confusion and shock."
"Summoning spider servants, I can remotely summon spider servants who respect me to fight for me (currently 8). When summoning the servants to fight, I can share the field of view with the servants."
"By transforming into a spider, I gain knowledge about the structure of the spider body and can try to evolve the body in a controllable direction (only in the direction of the spider)."
"My understanding of the spider realm has reached the level of legend. I can use the spider realm to step into the legendary realm."
Because he is a descendant of the spider god, Xu Yang has advanced into the spider domain again and again, and has only gained many abilities related to the spider domain.
Of course, Xu Yang can go one step further and directly use his understanding of the legendary field to advance to legend.
The so-called Jinshen Legend means that when your understanding of a certain field reaches a certain limit, you can turn this understanding and knowledge into some kind of blessing-like power to permanently bless yourself, so as to obtain more powerful power at the same time. Look to the next level.
Of course, the body and mind of mortals are very fragile. The legendary realm is both a blessing and a burden. Generally speaking, everyone can only advance to legend through one kind of legendary understanding.
Otherwise, there is a possibility of backlash from the legendary realm. To be precise, it is due to the confrontation between the two legendary realms in the body.
Of course, Xu Yang had no intention of using the Spider Domain to advance to the Legendary Domain. After all, the upper limit of the Spider Domain was very limited for the humanoid Xu Yang, so he couldn't really transform into a spider.
What's more, there is Ariel in the spider realm. In addition to Ariel, there is another god who currently controls the spider priesthood.
One beast priest was divided among three people. Obviously there were more wolves and less meat, and Xu Yang had no intention of getting involved.
The reason why he got involved in the Spider Realm was firstly to maintain his good relationship with Ariel, and secondly, he also needed to have a backup plan for Ariel. If this guy died suddenly that day, he might be able to inherit her legacy and help her. Revenge or something.
Although Ariel's body is gone now, just a ray of divinity is a priceless treasure for those who want to become gods. This thing is like Keynes's territorial property rights certificate. As long as you have it, you have the ability to master it. Orthodoxy of the Priesthood.
Of course, this was only on the premise that Ariel died suddenly that day. After all, it was good to have a stupid spider like Ariel as a friend.
As for the legendary path Xu Yang needs to take, even Xu Yang himself is not sure yet.
Compared with other fields, Xu Yang's divinity was originally derived from pseudo-rules. The so-called pseudo is just false. It is an illusion woven by the gods with powerful divine power to deceive the creatures of other worlds and swallow up the original energy of other worlds.
Therefore, Xu Yang speculates that the realm represented by the pseudo-rules will only be reflected during the devouring period, that is, when the players arrive. The opportunity for Xu Yang to become a god is also when the large system officially starts running, and "Super New World" is fully open to the public. after.
Therefore, Xu Yang also needs to wait until the real players arrive before he will have the opportunity to break through the legend.
Of course, this does not mean that Xu Yang's strength will not improve.
The blessing of the legendary realm only achieves a leap forward in life level. The biggest improvement lies in breaking the level upper limit.
In terms of level, Xu Yang doesn't have to worry at all. Once he breaks through the legendary level, he can go straight to level 49. As long as he masters the legendary field enough, it is not impossible to break through the levels continuously.
Before breaking through the legend, Xu Yang can still continue to improve the spider field, and can also gain enlightenment in other fields.
The improvement of each ability will unlock the corresponding ability.
For example, the real spider feature enabled by Xu Yang.
Coupled with the two newly opened magic eyes, the compound eye allows Xu Yang to open six eyes at the same time. According to the different abilities and vision of each eye, it can present projections like six mirrors and six projection screens.
The newly opened two eyes are exactly as the name suggests.
The Corrosive Eye can corrode and damage the enemy again out of thin air through the visual field. This spell does not require chanting or any other preparation stage. It only requires the eyes to be activated.
The powerful corrosive force will directly act on any life or object within the Corrosive Eye's field of vision, inflicting varying amounts of damage based on the corrosive resistance of the affected person.
If it is operated well, it can be killed in one blow, and if it is not operated well, it can corrode the enemy's key organs and have miraculous effects.
Of course, such a powerful magic eye also has limitations. Releasing corrosion requires consuming the magic power in the magic eye. The magic eye is an independent magic organ, and it takes a certain amount of time to fill with magic power.
Therefore, in a battle capital, the Corrosive Eye cannot be used without restriction and can only be used as an unexpected killing move.
As for the Eye of Disaster, it can bring bad luck to the opponent, such as cutting people off, singing errors, aiming failures, etc. (reducing the opponent's dice value). The effect sounds very ordinary, that is, the effect of a disaster spell.
But the strength of the Eye of Disaster lies in its range and front position. As long as the enemy remains within the sight of the Eye of Disaster, the effect of the Eye of Disaster will be activated directly without any digestion, and this effect cannot be erased through divine means.
Because the moment you erase it, the effect of the Eye of Disaster will immediately take effect again. Unless you use a high-level divine spell with divine immunity, you can be completely immune to this effect.
Another example is web-weaving. Xu Yang can use his collar to simulate web-weaving organs and use a large number of spider webs in battle. The same is true for venom and acid.
Not to mention that Xu Yang can now summon eight giant spiders to fight together at the same time. Nine to be precise. After all, there is still a small one at home.
Although Zi Zhi is only at the third level now, his potential is much stronger than these spider guards. It is only a matter of time before he wants to advance, and letting Zi Zhi help him control the spider guards may also be a good choice.
These are all improvements in strength. Although they are not as big a step as stepping into a legend, such improvements cannot be ignored.
With Xu Yang's skill set and newly mastered various characteristics, although he has not faced the legendary powerhouse head-on, Xu Yang's strength alone has exceeded the average level 39 by far, and such progress is far from reaching the limit.
As for the legendary field, Xu Yang also has a plan.
That is to use the original life energy breakthrough to continue to break through the upper limit of race and create a perfect body for yourself that can accommodate more legendary fields.
However, if the last piece of the puzzle of this plan, the racial advancement tree, is to be officially launched in the larger system, it is probably necessary to find a way from the resentment of the old world.
Xiefeng Ridge has been occupied, and there are nine giant spiders. Three of them occupy the original caves of the three wolf kings, three are placed in the orc camp, and the last three return to the starting lair.
In terms of the original world, it is a situation of mutual opposition, although this situation is often used to break.
Xu Yang has not forgotten that there may be a larger cave structure underground in Xiefeng Ridge. After occupying Xiefeng Ridge, Xu Yang has no intention of continuing to develop around it.
It is difficult for spiders that lack a cave structure to settle down on the plains. No matter how much land they have on the ground, it is just a burden to the spider nest. Xu Yang will probably leave with peace of mind after the arrangements are made.
Eight giant spiders have been incorporated into the "Xu Yang System" and have the bonus effect of "Lord of Spiders". Xu Yang can use the spider servants to observe the situation of the Xianfeng Territory even in other planes, and he can give any orders without any trouble. I need my real body to come here.
The originally most powerful giant spider, after seeing Xu Yang help eight spider guards easily break the level, now respects Xu Yang like a god. He just waits for enough advanced materials to be accumulated, and Xu Yang can add one more. A summon of legendary monsters.
As for the cult, Xu Yang had a good idea in mind when he looked at the "Spider Transformation" he had just obtained.
