The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 271 Limb Forest
Although savage dragons are not a particularly strong subspecies of dragons, they are relatively rare, and the premise of being able to beat them is that they can encounter them.

What's more, even if you can get the material from the wild dragon, turning it into an ointment requires quite a lot of skill. Only a highly skilled alchemist can handle it.

This also makes the wild dragon ointment very rare.

Besides, what this thing can increase is pure physical strength, the better the foundation, the more it will increase. In other words, it is a waste of money to use it for Lin Tianci.

If you have this spare time, why don't you wait until you return to Eastern Shenzhou to hold a grand travel event? When Zhang Baixi is happy, maybe he will give little brother Lin a magic weapon or something, which is much better than the dragon ointment.

Redicia was able to get it because the chamber of commerce opened by her family was very large, and it also dabbled in high-value goods such as magic items and potions.Although she speaks violently and rudely, she is indeed a rich young lady.

But even for Redicia, it is impossible to guarantee that she can find a second bottle of Savage Dragon Ointment. This thing is really too rare.

Take the phantom spider eggs they are looking for now, at least [-] pieces are needed to match the price of the wild dragon ointment, and there is no market for it, so it depends on luck if you want to buy it.

Speaking of phantom spiders, this kind of spider mainly lives between the thick branches and trunks, which is the top part of the forest.It has relatively high requirements for trees, and the year is relatively short. In forests that are not strong enough, phantom spiders will never be found.

There were sighting reports of phantom spiders in the Arthropod Forest, but Lin Tianci and the others walked for half an hour, and they were only on the outskirts of the forest. The trees in this part could hardly support the phantom spiders, so they needed to go deeper.

Since it's called Arthropod Forest, you can probably imagine what kind of shit this forest is, it's like a museum of spiders.

Now Lin Tianci and the others can see large and small spider webs everywhere, some of which are only a few centimeters wide, while others are as long as five or six meters.

The spiders also vary in size, from small spiders the size of a fingernail to those as big as king crabs.

——I always feel that I can’t look at crabs directly in the future.

This also makes the three of them need to be more careful when walking through the forest, try not to touch those spider webs, because you don't know whether the spiders waiting for their prey on the web are highly poisonous.

Especially the two sisters, Redicia and Alma, compared to Lin Tianci's "Hundred Poisons Can't Invade", they are still mortals, and they can only be temporarily suppressed by a universal antidote after being bitten by a poisonous spider , Wait until you get back to town to find a local herbalist for help.

This leads to the slower the movement speed of the three as they get deeper.

And the dangers in the Arthropod Forest are not limited to these.

When Lin Tianci pushed aside a bush, he saw a short guy leaning against a tree root not far away, his face was pale, as if he had been poisoned or injured.

Compared with the stocky and heavy dwarf, this short guy is like a normal person shrunk in half.

When chatting in the car before, Alma and Redicia also gave Lin Tianci some western common sense, such as race, after all, there are not only humans here like Eastern China.

Looking at his size and attire, he looks like a halfling, more similar to the 'Hobbit' who once appeared in The Lord of the Rings.

This is the first time Lin Tianci has seen this race, but his condition doesn't seem to be very good.

"Are you hurt?"

The halfling looked up at Lin Tianci weakly, with surprise in his eyes:

"Yes sir, I was bitten by a poisonous spider, can you take me out of here and back to town?"

Adventurers have an unwritten rule of helping each other in the wild, and Brother Lin is not against helping others as much as he can. He heard the words and responded, and then walked towards the halfling.

At this time, Alma, who was following him, also pushed aside the bushes, saw Lin Tianci walking towards a halfling, and immediately grabbed his cloak.

"Magic Missile!"

Three stand missiles burning with arcane energy shot out from the fingertips one after another, and the target was naturally the halfling leaning on the tree root.

Seeing that his stuff was exposed, the latter let out a piercing scream like that of a bug. His short body jumped up, split in mid-air, and turned into a big spider in a blink of an eye.

The blunt injury of the magic missile made it bleed out dark green insect blood. It didn't dare to fight, and bounced off its eight legs without looking back, and ran away quickly.

And Brother Lin...

His heart is broken.

The wizarding world is too scary!
The broken Leticia also hurried through the bushes when she heard the movement, glanced at the fleeing spider and said:

"They are shape-shifting spiders. They will disguise themselves as smaller humanoid creatures, usually posing as adventurers who have died, and then take the opportunity to sneak attack. They are a kind of cunning spider."

Alma also withdrew her finger and continued to explain:

"The transformation ability of the shape-shifting spider has always been a mystery, and it cannot be seen through by any means. The best way is to show it a look when you meet a short adventurer who appears alone in the wild."

No wonder Lin Tianci didn't notice at all that the transformation ability of the shape-shifting spider was not magic, otherwise Lin Tianci would be able to see some flaws as long as he was lucky.

After hearing the explanations from the two girls, Lin Tianci felt even more homesick...

In fact, the shapeshifting spider is indeed cunning, but it is nothing compared to the more sloppy monsters. In the final analysis, it is just a special ability evolved for survival and continuation.

After explaining a few words to Brother Lin from the east, Alma looked at the top of the tree:
"There should be phantom spiders around here, and they are very frequent."

She pointed to the tree trunk above and said:

"There are some scraping marks over there, and occasionally you can see leaves that are darker than other trees of the same type. This is evidence of the presence of phantom spiders."

Leticia put the glue jar that she carried all the way on the ground:

"Then let's lay a trap here. If a phantom spider takes the bait, it means that its lair is not far away. I hope to find eggs."

Phantom spiders have no fixed egg-laying period. Adult phantom spiders lay eggs once a year, one to four at a time, and can only lay eggs three times in a lifetime. Whether they lay eggs is also related to whether the surrounding food is sufficient. , they will consciously control the number of their own populations.

Whether it was Leticia or Alma, they were all familiar with how to deal with phantom spiders.

I heard them say it was because every time the school was on vacation, they always went with 'An' to capture such valuable monsters. 'An' was for tuition fees, and the others were for actual combat experience.

This neighborhood is very suitable for setting traps. They first found three trees arranged in a triangle, and then pulled up the nets bought from the town on both sides.

The function of the catching net is not to catch, but to let the phantom spider come in through the entrance without the net, forming a V-shaped opening. The glue jar specially used to catch the phantom spider is placed in the center of the opening, and there are moxas on the side. Erma's special spider bait.

It was a mass of animal viscera exuding a pungent smell. After some drug treatment, it would become a super-attractive bait for spiders.

The two girls were busy setting up traps below, while Lin Tianci climbed to the top of a big tree next to him with his agility and good eyesight, and stood on the top of the tree to look around. Come and see if there are phantom spiders.

He looked around and saw some white things in the north of the trap. He focused his sight a little bit, and saw that the white things were actually a big lump like a cocoon, floating among the treetops about 200 meters away.

After going back and talking to the two girls who were busy, Alma judged:

"That should be the phantom spider's nest. They have the habit of spinning silk to make their nests."

Phantom spiders don't know how to weave webs. The purpose of their silk spinning is only to provide a breeding ground for the next generation to grow and prevent them from dying when they are very fragile larvae.

"It's not far anyway, let me go and have a look?"

"Are you sure? The Phantom Spider is a very large spider."

"It's just a big spider, it's okay, I've seen it before."

Lin Tianci is very confident, after all, it is not that he has never seen a big spider.

In Meili's plane before, Lin Tianci saw lantern spiders appearing in groups. The size of those things was almost as big as that of cattle and sheep. No matter how big the phantom spider was, that's what it meant.

After all, arthropods with exoskeletons like spiders cannot grow too large, otherwise their own weight will overwhelm them. This is what he said in the animal world in his previous life.

——However, the animal world will definitely not introduce animals in the magical world...

Seeing that Lin Tianci insisted on checking it out, Alma and Redicia didn't continue to stop him. They had seen Lin Tianci's skills before, and knew that he was nimble and agile, and he could easily run back if he was in danger.

So the two of them were left on the spot and continued to set up traps, while Lin Tianci jumped up and down among the treetops, and soon arrived near the cocoon-like thing he saw before.

From a distance, it looks like a cocoon, but when you get closer, you find that it is a boat, and the center is slightly sunken.

Lin Tianci climbed a little higher, and saw the so-called collapsed part, because there were two white egg-shaped objects, the size of which was comparable to an ostrich egg, one was larger and the other was slightly smaller.

Because Alma had described the phantom spider eggs to him before, Lin Tianci immediately recognized that this was the target they were looking for.

I didn't expect it to be so easy. If I knew it, I wouldn't have to work hard to cook anything with spider glue.

Gently lift up the Cloud Pulling Palm, and a phantom of the palm slowly flies out, and quickly grows in size, finally turning into a big hand comparable to a cattail fan.

Controlling the palm of mana, Lin Tianci squeezed lightly, and grabbed the biggest egg in his hand, and finally it floated back slowly.

The phantom spider's eggs seem very firm to the touch, like touching a basketball again. If you shine them on the sun, you can still see a black shadow inside, which should be an unhatched phantom spider.

Once you get the stuff, go back and it's over.

Lin Tianci turned around holding the spider egg the size of an ostrich egg, and then the light from above his head dimmed.

Two black-shelled spiders, almost the size of a rhinoceros, stood on the treetop behind him. It was unbelievable that they were so big, but they only bent the treetop a little, and didn't let it fall.

Moreover, the black compound eyes of the two spiders stared at the eggs in his arms, as if the visitors were not good.

"Have you eaten?"

In this regard, Lin Tianci could only show an embarrassed yet polite smile...
