through the dark road

Chapter 385 Timely Rain

"When will these little guys come in handy?"

Kane looked at the spiders crawling all over the yard, and asked with a worried face.

The little guys he talked about are now as big as a child's bathtub with their eight legs spread out, and they are absolutely giants for normal spiders.

However, they are still half-month-old larvae, less than one-fifth of their adult weight.

"should....."

Aike's face also had no confidence, and he swallowed half of what he said.

After all, this is the first time he has bred this kind of thing, and the growth progress of the little spider so far is much slower than they thought before, so it is not certain.

In the past, this kind of breeding process would have taken an extra ten days and a half months, and it was enough to raise it slowly, but now the counterattack of the giant spider swarm is getting more and more crazy, giving them a strong sense of urgency.

It seems that because of sweeping around outside, this population has produced some strange changes, and has accumulated a short-term burst of energy.

Judging from the information sent back from the defense of various places, the proportion of super-strong individuals in the spider group is much higher than before, which is relatively consistent with the situation of various hell monsters.

Since a few months ago, monsters in various places have frequently appeared monsters with leader-level strength, but this situation is rare among the mutated creature populations.

This made the people in Kurast Harbor feel a huge threat again. Although the previous strike operation successfully removed countless spider eggs, it curbed the growth of the population for a certain period of time.

But this population has already prospered to the point that they are difficult to suppress, and that action seems to have stimulated their process of survival of the fittest, and the current situation seems to be a kind of revenge rebound.

Under the pressure of all aspects, it is no wonder that even people like Kane feel impatient, hoping that the spiders cultivated by Eco will grow up quickly.

Sometimes I really hope that those strong people on the front line can come back for a while, but the situation there is not at all more optimistic than here.

The collision between humans and hell has become more intense, the new generation of job-changers have shown greater potential, and the hell monsters have also accelerated the rebirth of projections, and more powerful monsters have appeared.

But such changes have put more and more pressure on the high-end human combat power. If it weren't for the emergence of a large number of divine language equipment, which has improved their overall strength, they may have collapsed long ago. .

"Their growth rate is already accelerating, and they may soon enter a growth spurt."

Black on the side took out a small book and opened it and said that it recorded the daily weight data of certain individuals. After these little spiders could obey the command, he selected male and female individuals to observe and record separately every day.

Judging from these data, the rate of weight gain has even tended to double in recent days. If he can draw a graph, he will see a high-spirited upward curve.

He turned the book back, and there were many detailed notes in front, and continued to say:
"According to what was mentioned in Elder Ormas's manuscript, and the habits of most social creatures, when they are close to sexual maturity, they will compete for a leader in the group. In the case of spiders, they should be females. I think Then they can be returned to Spider Forest."

"These spiders have been specially fed, and their individual strength is definitely not weak. When they return to the large group, they will continue to follow their instincts and continue to find their own position until they become the leader of the entire spider group."

Kane listened to Black's explanation with approval in his eyes.

In his thirties, he is still very young in this world. Although he was promoted through his father's relationship, Blake's abilities are indeed outstanding, and his personality is also very good.

Jherin didn't let him return to Lu Gaoyin to return to his life, but stayed in Kurast Harbor to assist Mo Bei. He has been here to help Aike, and his enthusiasm for cultivating small spiders is not inferior to Aike.

Compared with Black's character, Kane actually still thinks that Mo Bei is more than courageous, but not calm enough, acting eclectic, and it can be said that he is a bit reckless.

But a person with this kind of personality and behavior style can always lead his team to create various miracles and bring infinite surprises wherever he goes. . . .

At this time, the shadow of a fleet appeared on the river north of the harbor, and soon, more than ten brigantines docked in the harbor one after another.

A fleet of this size is not common, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention, as well as the habitual vigilance of the escort members.

After a team of guards wearing neat standard equipment first assembled at the pier, the team leader showed Conrad's order document to the iron wolves, and said loudly:

"I am following the order of the prince to come to help fight the spider forest!"

The man's tone was quite heroic, not arrogant, but when he set foot on the pier, a surge of enthusiasm in his heart made him unconsciously carry this emotion.

Although they are the guards of the great noble family, it does not mean that every one of them is like their master, cold-blooded and self-interested, ignoring the compatriots who are suffering from serious disasters.

On the contrary, many of them are actually looking forward to such a day, but they are somewhat involuntary.

The iron wolves looked at the job changers who kept getting off the boat, both surprised and puzzled, and immediately reported the situation to Asila.

When Asila came to the pier quickly, nearly 500 people had already assembled, waiting for her to receive them.

"...Conrad? No...it's him. It's Mo Bei!"

After a brief conversation with the team leader, she still felt a little unreal while holding the order document with the family emblem.

When Kane told her that Mo Bei and his party went to Caltim City, she still felt that it was too risky. After all, controlling the puppet is not controlling the real Conrad, and she knew nothing about many potential crises, so she only hoped These young men were able to return safely.

However, the timely assistance in front of her made her very pleasantly surprised, and she became extremely curious about what Mo Bei and his party did in the capital.

"You guys take a break first, eat something, and I will arrange tasks for you later."

"Yes!"

The team leader promised that they stayed on the ship for seven or eight days, and they also needed to adjust their state to cope with the continuous battles that they might face next.

These guards already had the will to participate in the war, and they also had Conrad's orders, so they did not reject Asheara's instructions.And the mercenaries didn't have any problems in this regard, they always thought of themselves as professionals!

Asheara was very satisfied with these people's completely obedient attitude. When she turned to leave, this woman who didn't like to smile very much even shook her delicate chin slightly. I also find this a bit unbelievable.All the iron wolves looked at each other in blank dismay.

However, before Asila went far, another fleet appeared on the river, and the captain of the guard also recognized the clan emblem on the boat.

"It's Duke Virgil's people, and they're also here for reinforcements."

Although the two fleets did not set off together, after several days of sailing, they arrived almost at the same time.

"Virgil?" Asheara stopped and turned around, frowning as she looked at the ships.

It can be understood that the Conrad family's support was arranged by Mo Bei, but why would Virgil, a miser, send someone to reinforce him! ?
"I forgot to mention, we are just going first. There are six or seven hundred mercenaries under the name of His Royal Highness, and they should be on the way."

"..."

Asheara was speechless for a moment, feeling that she had already been shocked. .
