500 Mini-Boss on Floor 20 (1/2)

Albeit narrowly, Jack had avoided alerting those centipedes but took that knowledge along with him. It led Jack to wonder if he could do the same thing. And now that he was about to enter the twentieth floor, Jack felt better in attempting such an experiment.

Jack combined Phoro's and Dragov's bloodlines as he tunneled through the ground with unrivaled speed.

His experiment proved successful as he broke through to the twentieth floor without any issue. However, the rubble would easily attract the mini-boss on the twentieth floor.

His invisibility was never lost, not even while he tunneled. Though the sounds of falling rubble warned the occupants of the twentieth floor, Jack crept along the ceiling instead of following the rubble to the ground below.

Silky strands of spider webs filled most of the twentieth floor. Some of the rubble got entangled in the webs, alerting all spiders of the entire floor.

Careful with each step, the hero calmly avoided the spider webs. He didn't mind if he took longer than usual as Jack had already saved time by tunneling through the eighteenth and nineteenth floors entirely.

If anything followed his tunnel down, Jack didn't care. His digging speed was ridiculous and he would be long gone before anything could reach him. And if something found the tunnel in the future, it would only let any curious creature get attacked by whatever was on the next level.

He kept the same mentality going into the twentieth floor, only he was more cautious due to the spiders' ability to sense him via a single misstep on a strand of web. Also, Jack wanted to see the mini-boss up close and personal.

The Skulker Tarantula was known for loving complete darkness and its use of smaller spiders to swarm its prey. Of course, anything under five meters tall counted as smaller compared to the ten-meter Skulker Tarantula. It was also known for having a terrifying, slow-acting venom, which Jack was determined to get no matter what.

Since he entered irregularly, it took Jack almost half an hour to creep through the labyrinth of spider webs. After that, he finally found the mini-boss's burrow.

Keeping his breathing under control, Jack pondered the situation.
