Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 88: Beheading
There was total silence in the Spider Cave.
Laura looked at Marvin in shock: “Why are you pinching my face?”
Marvin turned over and ignored her, staring in the direction where Starscream left.
"She has retreated temporarily."
Old Took said solemnly: "I have said it before, this female spider is very cunning. I have tried to kill her several times, but I can't do it with my own strength."
"With me in it, it'll be done," Marvin said confidently.
Old Tuk looked at Marvin in surprise, hesitated, and finally nodded.
He could feel that Marvin had a fighting ability that was inconsistent with his level.
The next second, the agile halfling began to run quickly into the depths of the cave!
"Remember to follow closely!"
Marvin pulled Laura up and followed.
He knew that Old Took was tracking the enemy using the traces left by Red Spider.
This is a very rare skill.
Only the thief's advanced class [Tracker] has such a talent.
Marvin's night tracking required him to obtain some information about the target before he could use those clues to track the target. However, Red Spider's appearance left nothing behind except for a fire.
Such tracking can only be accomplished with the help of an honest tracker like Old Tuke!
At that moment, Old Took rushed to the front, followed by Marvin. Laura hurriedly grabbed the little halfling and whispered, "You have to protect me!"
The little halfling blushed. He seldom interacted with girls, especially a pretty girl like Laura.
At that moment, he just clenched the dagger in his hand and nodded vigorously.
Laura smiled with satisfaction, and suddenly pushed the little halfling: "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and leave!"
“What if I lose you?”
"Ah, it's all your fault. I can't see Marvin and the others anymore!"
…
Deep in the cave, Old Took slowed down his pace cautiously.
The way Red Spider walks is very unique, and he has studied this for a long time.
This unique way of walking would leave a distinctive trace, which was what Old Took relied on to track her.
Following behind him, Marvin also clenched his swords.
Although he mostly worked alone, he had also played with high-level teammates. There was no need for experts to say much, and a simple action could tell what the other party wanted to convey.
It's nearby.
Here the caves become more complex.
The main road was still a deep cave, and holes began to appear above it. A large number of scattered bones appeared on the left and right sides of the cave.
These bones are the remains of adventurers.
The remains of an adventurer appeared, which means that Gem Bay is not far away.
Because these adventurers all entered the Spider Dungeon from the entrance on the Gem Bay side.
Most adventurers can't go far before they become food for red spiders or black spiders.
"Up there," said Old Took, with a silent gesture, pointing to a cave in the sky.
Marvin nodded.
He immediately leaned aside and started hiding. Old Took also successfully entered stealth mode.
[Summon Dark Crow]!
[Shadow Clone]!
In an instant, Marvin used two skills. The shadow clone also started hiding.
The crow flew up to the cave in a flash.
After summoning the Dark Crow, a completely new vision appeared before Marvin's eyes.
He can switch back and forth between his own vision and Raven's vision.
The Dark Raven also has darkvision, and can see everything clearly in the dark tunnel.
In the cave, some red spots gradually appeared.
Marvin knew that these were the marks left by the red spider's long-term spitting of poisonous flames. Each spot contained a strong fire poison.
Once infected by the red spider's fire poison, ordinary people will die instantly!
This is the terrifying thing about this female spider. In comparison, other black spiders are quite mild.
"Starscream can spit out poisonous fire three times a day. She has already used it once. If you want to kill her, you must trick her twice more!"
"The most urgent task now is to lure her out of the nest!"
Marvin's heart moved, and he controlled the Dark Crow to pounce forward.
The noise was so loud that the red spider crawling nearby noticed it immediately!
She suddenly pounced on him with her teeth bared and her claws bared.
She had wandered in the long and dark dungeons for a long time and possessed wisdom beyond that of monsters, but she was very unfamiliar with creatures like crows.
She had never seen anything like it before, and it aroused her curiosity.
Who knew that the Dark Crow's flying ability was so cunning. It descended and fled to the tunnel below as if running for its life.
The red spider immediately crawled down.
…
The opportunity has come!
Marvin remained motionless in the dark. He couldn't see Old Tuk, but he knew that this guy was a thief. He would not easily attack unless the opportunity was fatal.
The key is to rely on yourself.
It was already very difficult for the other party to help him find the Red Spider's cave. In fact, this was the main function of the thief profession in the team.
The frontal combat capability of the thief is very weak. Not to mention the advanced tracker of Old Took, even the stronger Phantom Assassin can only have one or two bursts, and after the burst, it's either you die or I die.
After all, there are three most difficult things about Red Spider. The first is that it has a certain level of intelligence, the second is that it can spit poisonous fire, and the third is that its whereabouts are secretive.
Marvin was already satisfied that Old Tuk could help him solve the third point.
The dark crow flapped its wings and flew out, and then a huge spider climbed down from above with exaggerated steps.
Red spider Elizabeth is a radical mutation of the black spider. Like other black spiders, she is not very good at spinning silk and mainly relies on crawling.
Marvin deliberately slowed down Murkrow, but was grabbed by Red Spider and sent into his mouthparts!
The next second, a figure suddenly burst out and pounced towards Red Spider!
Red Spider suddenly opened his mouthparts, and a terrifying stream of flames shot out in an instant, directly hitting the figure.
Puff puff…
The man turned into a shadow and dissipated on the ground.
Shadow clones are meant to be given away!
Marvin had already made plans. His attack power was pretty good, and he didn't lack the shadow clone. The most important thing about this skill was that he had an extra substitute to protect himself.
Cheated for the second time.
Ma Wen counted secretly in his heart.
However, at this moment, Red Spider seemed to have noticed something and suddenly retracted her feet, as if preparing to retreat back into her cave!
"We can't let her escape back!"
Marvin gritted his teeth and was about to make a move, but at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the ceiling!
Old Took!
Marvin looked at the half-orc jumping down from the sky above the tunnel in great surprise. Just now, he seemed to be walking upside down in the tunnel.
This move is really rare, Marvin has only seen it on vampires!
Old Tuk is several times more agile than Marvin!
He landed lightly on Red Spider's body, and two dark green daggers pierced fiercely into Red Spider's head!
Sizzle!
An unpleasant scream was heard, and Red Spider's legs suddenly went weak. He fell directly from the sky and hit the ground in a mess.
The cautious Old Tuk took advantage of the situation and rolled over, slipping away directly from Red Spider's back, then he used a disappearing skill and disappeared from Marvin's sight!
"This guy, no wonder he has lived so long, he is really careful."
"The dagger is poisoned, but... Red Spider's poison resistance and health are both very high."
"These daggers can't kill her!"
Marvin looked at Red Spider who was struggling on the ground for a while and trying to climb up again. He took a deep breath and suddenly stopped hiding!
A dart hit Red Spider's head accurately!
The latter became furious and spewed out a mouthful of poisonous fire.
"Oh no!" Old Tuk, who was hiding in the dark, was suddenly shocked.
He didn't expect that Marvin would be so reckless!
But in the next second, Marvin's body suddenly moved quickly to the right!
break out!
Shadow cut step!
And then...flying over eaves and walls!
The horrible poisonous fire gushed past Marvin's ears. He walked diagonally in the tunnel for a distance and steadily avoided the Red Spider's attack.
Hiss hiss hiss!
The red spider bared its fangs and claws.
Marvin stepped on the hard tunnel, landed rapidly, and swung his two swords continuously!
Clank, clank!
The red spider used its forelimbs to resist in a desperate manner!
Marvin's strength is average, but his attack frequency is too fast.
In just four breaths, he slashed more than twenty times!
The twenty-first knife!
A small mark was left on Red Spider's forelimb!
The twenty-second knife!
Starscream's left forelimb was cut off and her whole body lost balance.
The powerful attribute bonus of the Dual Blade Ronin played an extreme effect. Marvin's serial sword skills caused terrible damage and directly chopped the Red Spider's forelimbs into pieces!
"ha!"
With one last push, Marvin jumped high into the air. Without the protection of his forelimbs, the Red Spider could only try in vain to stab Marvin with his mouthparts.
As a result, Marvin dodged it easily and jumped onto Starscream's back.
He turned around, crossed his two swords, and with the strength bonus of [Dual Blade Ronin], he cut with force with his backhand!
Starscream's head falls to the ground!
Puff, puff, puff! Red Spider's body took a few steps back, and finally fell to the ground with a thud.
Marvin stepped off her body with satisfaction.
Old Took also came out of stealth, revealing a surprised look: "Even the drow warriors don't have such superb swordsmanship as you!"
Before he could finish his words, an anxious little figure suddenly appeared from the back of the tunnel.
Little Took!
"Oh no!" Little Tuke said anxiously, "The sister just now was caught by a black spider!"
Lola!
Marvin's mind went blank. He almost forgot there was a black spider!
"Where is she?" he asked, grabbing Little Took.
"She was taken to the cave above." The little halfling's face turned red, and he stamped his feet in anger: "It's all my fault. I didn't protect her well."
Marvin ran back quickly, and in an instant, he activated [Night Tracking]!
He has Laura's things on him, so he should be able to track her!
“We must catch up!”
For the first time, Marvin felt anxious!
