Chapter 214: Insanely strong spiders! (2/2)

There was supposed to be a river here towards the lake outside.”

Sistela thought so.

Yman was surprised to hear it. Now that the wisp said it. He noticed something about the mug-like stone. It seemed like it was intentionally made using a spell and not by a potter. The seal meant by the wisp must be the Mug-like stone.

He wondered if who was the mysterious person that the wisp told him.

'Looks like, we can't just take the cauldron with us,' Yman said in thought communication.

Sistela was surprised that her partner planned to take it with them.

He was planning to take it, and sell it for a huge sum of money after he succeeded in creating the medicine.

”I beg you, Mister. Please don't take away the cauldron!” Pleaded the wisp.

A bead of sweat appeared at the back of his head. Then he sighed. ”Okay, but I need to take a few amounts of water,” he said with a slight smile.

”Thank you, Mister!” The wisp beamed. And told him to take whatever amount he wanted. After all, the water would continue to overflow.

He then walked towards the mug-like stone and uncovered the mouth of it.

He took an empty bottle from his storage and dipped it inside until the bottle was fully filled.

Before storing it inside his storage, he shook it and stared for a couple of seconds. It had a golden color and he could feel a dense energy from it. A feeling of delight rose inside him. He was delighted to gather it, unexpectedly. After all, he only came here to gather some herbs. But luckily, he found one of the necessary ingredients for the medicine he wanted to synthetize.

Finally, he was at the starting line of his goal. He thought.

Then suddenly,”kyaaaaaahh!”

”What was that?”

”What is——”

They suddenly heard a loud yell. ”It came from the outside!” Shouted the wisp.

Yman and the others ran outside, and the two spiders were running ahead of them.

When they reached outside the cave, ”the worms!” Screamed the wisp.

Near the lake, they saw a group of people surrounded by the giant flying worms.

”Look, Mister! There are some people over there!”

Yman stared at the lake and saw three people surrounded by 10 worms.

Sistela seemed to remember their faces.

”Yeah, they are,” he replied. But he remembered they were together with two girls. And now, there were only three of them, and they were all boys.

”Are they your friends?!” Asked the wisp. The wisp might have thought they were his friends since they were people like him, although they have different ears.

”No, they aren't my friends,” he replied. He noticed the people fought back, but they were losing because of the weak magic attack they were firing. They must be a non combative type. Looks like his guess was right. That they were from the other alchemy departments.

”Go!” He commanded his spiders.

The two spiders rushed forthwith towards the lake and fired fireballs to the worms surrounding the three people. After all, the fire element was effective against bug type monsters.

The fireballs hit and directly charred the unlucky enemies. When they noticed the danger, they flew towards the spider and opened their large beaks.

From their beaks, they noticed an air vibration that was seemingly sucking up the spiders. However, before they could succeed, their beaks were shot by webs.

The worm's attacks turned useless when the webs were covering their beaks.

Then the spiders followed by another shot of fireballs.

The people they rescued were staring at the spiders with gaping mouths.

”What are those?” One of the three asked but the other two had no idea as well.

The other worms left them and attacked the spiders. But just like what happened to the first worms. They also suffered the same.

”Mister, those spiders are insanely strong. Can you give me one of those?” The wisp suddenly said which made Yman to laugh soundlessly.
