17 Episode 16 Arrow Spider Hunting.txt (1/2)

Vellums searches for the Arrowspider.

The Arrowspider is lurking in the cave.

I've asked goblins and orcs if there's a cave nearby, and they say there's a cave to the northeast of the goblin village. Incidentally, that cave can be dangerous, so goblins should stay clear of it.

Beramus will head for the cave.

They arrived a few minutes later. We weren't attacked by any demons on the way.

They go inside the cave.

It's too dark to see what's ahead, so he uses his light magic to keep going.

Besides building nests, the arrow spiders also use the thread for attack.

To be more specific, you must bind the threads in a spiral fashion.

By bundling many layers of threads, they become very stiff and resemble arrows.

You attack by sending the strings that have become arrows.

It's quite powerful and will pierce even steel armor if it hits properly.

However, it takes tens of seconds for the string to form and fly, so if you kill it before it attacks you, there's no problem.

Beramus walks through the cave. Along the way, he is attacked by other monsters, but he defeats them without difficulty.

Then, after a few minutes of walking through the cave.

(I'm at ......)

Bellamus could feel a presence on the ceiling .

Arrow spiders are unlikely to move on the ground due to their characteristics.

They nest above and wait for their prey to pass through, out of reach of their enemies, and then shoot them dead.

After killing the animal, use a string to collect the body and eat it.

You can't see very well up to the ceiling, so you turn on the light's magic.

There are three arrow spiders building a nest on the ceiling.

Each arrow spider is making arrows and is ready to snipe at Varamus.

Immediately, Bellamus fired three shots of Light Arrow magic.

All three shots hit.

The arrow spider is dead, falling to the ground.

They look like adult arrow spiders.

An adult arrow spider is no bigger than a goblin.

In order for a goblin to evolve, it needs to eat three of these arrowspiders' legs.

Eating a little isn't enough to make them evolve.

There are quite a few arrow spiders inside the cave and I've killed ten of them.

There aren't more than a dozen.

There were 13 of them with 14 legs. They're a bit short on legs, but they can eat the body too.

They'll be transported by magic.

Gather the arrow spiders in one place.

Then magically produce a special string called magic thread.

Use the thread to wind the arrow spider's body together.

When the thread is tightly wound, put a spell on it.

Then it will start to float.

There's a string in your hand, so you can pull it off and you can carry it effortlessly.

And on his way back, Beramus finds a stone.

”It's a gem. This is a good find, Vellums rejoices.

Light-attribute magic, such as light, absorbs light when placed on the stone.

Once absorbed, the stone begins to glow, illuminating your surroundings.

Once the light is absorbed, it will continue to emit for three days. Very useful to have the stone here at night.

Apparently there's a lot of light-harvesting stones in this cave.

We'll need to bring the arrow spider now, but we'll come back next time and mine it.

With that in mind, Bellamus picked up the four stones and left the cave.

Let's go back to the village.
