Chapter 216: Fierce Battle in the Ecological Zone

A huge cave appeared in front of everyone.

This cave is connected in all directions. There is a steaming underground waterfall on one wall. The warm water mixed with mist keeps rushing into the underground lake, so that one-third of the area here is covered by hot springs.

The minerals in the cave make this area seem to be shrouded in a nebula. There are many kinds of crystal insects flying in groups. They flash fluorescent light of different colors, like countless floating colored crystals, wandering in the huge moss plants. A variety of dark ferns are directly connected to the dome and the ground dozens of meters high, hanging in the huge cave like vines or curtains. Fungi of all sizes are like trees and shrubs, covering every corner here.

This is an underground world that humans have never seen before. Under the management of the magic spiders, a complete ecological chain has been formed.

This is the ecological zone of the magic spiders. Everything in it is food for the magic spiders standing at the top of the food chain.

Many kinds of dark herbs mentioned by Anthony grow here, but most of the plants here are not even in the book. If Anthony sees this, he will go crazy. This place is very suitable for both a future magic potion garden and a winter shelter.

There are many magic spiders left here, including hundreds of workers, dozens of soldier spiders, and seven or eight "guards". The carapaces on their bodies are harder than those of soldier spiders, and look like colorful glass or a combination of yellow, white, blue or other three colors of crystals. The colors are colorful and messy, like art paintings. But this eye-catching color looks very dangerous.

Their bodies are much smaller than that of the guard leader, and the largest is only two or three meters tall.

After George's magic spider guides saw the guards in the distance, they stopped at the door and trembled, not wanting to go deeper - the humanoid magic spider had told George before that in the eyes of humans, there is no difference between magic spiders. But in the eyes of magic spiders, the patterns on their bodies are like human clothes, and they can tell each other's identity, status, and the area where these magic spiders should be active at a glance.

However, this matter is beyond their control. After a little hesitation, they seemed to realize who was more terrifying, so they stepped into the cave again.

After seeing them come in, the ordinary magic spiders did what they should do, but the guard spiders surrounded them with hostility. They spoke some magic spider language and asked about the purpose of the magic spiders. The warning and reprimand in the language were very obvious.

But at the moment when the guard magic spiders approached the cave entrance, an armored giant suddenly rushed in from outside the door, knocked a guard magic spider away in a blink of an eye, and plunged into the guard magic spiders. A flying square hammer followed closely and hit a guard magic spider hard, knocking it over several times. When it stopped, the magic spider armor on its head and chest had cracked a large area, and some liquid crystal-like blood continued to flow from its mouth.

The battle was about to break out, and all the spiders in the cave gathered around. The dense small spiders pressed over the ferns and fungi, sweeping over like a flood. At the entrances of several caves in the distance, demon spiders began to climb the large web on the dome and join the battlefield. There were even seven or eight guard demon spiders among them!

The two spiders that were knocked over by the man and the hammer, one of them lay on the ground and struggled for a long time without being able to get up, and the other shook its head and rushed to the battlefield. But before it had gone far, the blood in its body was suddenly drained out of its body, and as its body quickly shrank, it fell halfway along with a large group of small spiders under its feet.

The guard demon spider struggling on the ground did not die, and stood up again after a while. Although the large sunken scar on its chest looked very scary, it did not affect its full vitality. But it soon met the fate of its companions.

The five guard demon spiders had already fought with Alexander, and their strength was terrifying, not inferior to that of the ogre. The armor on their bodies was comparable to refined gold. The magic halberd that could penetrate the soldier spiders could not pierce them. Instead, Alexander's strange power created cracks and dents in the sparks.

They also sprayed a terrible venom from their mouths, which would burn a large area of ​​fungi and bushes when splashed. After a worker spider was contaminated, it immediately let out a shrill scream, and its legs were corroded into two pieces at a speed visible to the naked eye. The whole body was instantly frozen in the elemental power carried by the venom, and lightning burst out!

It seems that depending on the color of the guards, their attacks and venom will add three kinds of elemental damage. The worker spider with several chelicerae corroded struggled on the ground twice, then turned over and did not move.

But the claws of the guards also kept sparking when they hit Alexander's body. The terrible venom left a trace of corrosion when it first touched the armor, but at the moment when the Red Sun Holy Fire was ignited, the corrosion effect was purified and could no longer corrode the armor. After the venom penetrated the armor, it didn't seem to have much effect, but instead made the warrior furious in the pain.

And his strength far exceeded the combined strength of the five demon spiders!

When Alexander started to fight back, he used an unstoppable force to knock down five guard spiders with his shield and sling them with his halberd! Then he faced the spider group led by the other seven guard spiders. At this time, George also rushed out of the cave, took the flying hammer, and jumped on one of his own soldiers. He faced the spiders that passed Alexander, like a rock in the flood, blocking the incoming spiders.

There was a holy fire in the air around him, with the void inside and the Book of Dawn in the center, which was constantly flipping, and chains were constantly flying out. A guard spider that was knocked away by Alexander was locked by the chain before it could recover.

In the blink of an eye, the guard spider was pulled into the void. It screamed in horror in its constant struggle, trying to hook the edge of the void with its forelimbs. However, under the irresistible force, its body gradually changed from three-dimensional to two-dimensional and was drawn into the book.

Frost also condensed around the feet of the spiders around George. Those densely packed little spiders looked scary, but they often stuck to the cold ground before they came to George and his team. Especially those little spiders that passed through the fungus bushes, the moisture on their bodies turned them into ice sculptures.

Slightly larger spiders like plates and millstones can wade through this frost road. But during the recitation of the blood curse, the blood on their bodies quickly solidified, and they often turned blue and black before they walked far, and fell halfway like zombies.

In the outer layer of the battle encirclement and above the dome, worker spiders kept throwing spider webs. However, most of them condensed into frost in mid-air with the water vapor here and lost their activity. Most of them were caught by the worker spiders around George. These condensed spider webs became very brittle and hard, and they would shatter with a scratch of the spider's legs or a swing of the square hammer.

Alexander, who was rushing in the spider group in the distance, was the main target of the spider webs, and the small spiders on the ground did not sweep towards him like a tide. It was like a group of terrible marching ants. But he was like a rampaging fire giant, wading through the swarm of spiders along roads burning with holy fire, leaving ashes everywhere he passed!
