The spider queen slowly dragged her heavy body, her legs left deep trails on the ground that couldn’t be covered by the invisibility skill.
Grkkkk.
The corpse worm was dragged away and the spider queen walked slowly, each of her steps covered several ters in one go.
Even though the spider queen was slow, the journey that took an hour by car was completed in just thirty minutes.
When the group was only a hundred ters away from Grindhall City, Lucien’s invisibility skill wore off and the spider queen’s huge build, along with the huge worm dragged behind her appeared out of thin air.
From afar, Lucien and Lurenzo could already see the sparkling gold barrier covering the sky.
Lurenzo shouted from the back, his voice drifted with the wind.
"It’s Grindhall City! How do we enter now? Sneak in?"
Lurenzo looked down at the spider queen’s body and shuddered.
How could they sneak in with such a huge monster?
Lucien shook his head and spoke through telepathy.
[Just repeat what I said later.]
"Huh? What??"
[Listen, and repeat.]
"Ah? I’m your spokesperson?"
[Mmm.]
Lurenzo secretly cursed,
Pretentious bastard. Why don’t you speak with your own mouth?
Naturally he didn’t know that a certain soone was mute and even his vision was blurry, only clear when he looked at the system’s notification that flashed directly in his mind.
Grkkkk.
While the group slowly crawled towards Grindhall City, the patrol guards standing on the city towers keenly noticed the black dot appearing in the distance.
At first, the patrol guard just glanced at the black dot and continued to stare at the distance in a daze.
But as a cloud of dust rose from the black dot and the black dot grew bigger, the patrol guard finally straightened his back.
"What’s that?"
The patrol guard squinted his eyes and faintly saw the silhouette of legs.
Right long legs dragging the ground, leaving a sharp mark.
An ominous feeling struck and the guy hurriedly used a telescope to look at the black dot.
The mont his vision zood in—
Curved fangs flashed under the sunlight.
Four pairs of green eyes glinted sharply right in front of his vision.
"Ahhh!"
The patrol guard shrieked, the telescope fell from his hand with a clatter.
He subconsciously stumbled back a few tis until he almost fell off the tower!
The scream imdiately attracted the other guards’ attention and they hurriedly crowded around the guy.
"Hey! What’s wrong?"
"What? What? What is it?"
The patrol guard fell on his butt, his face pale, his whole body shook like a sieve.
"M-m-mo-n-n— "
He couldn’t form a coherent word, his face just turned blue and purple, his legs shaking.
"Ugh, what a coward! Just what did you see??"
His colleague impatiently snatched the fallen telescope, pointing the thing in the direction where the guy first looked, a mocking rant burst out of his mouth.
"Just what the hell— "
The guy’s words were caught in his throat, like a duck with its neck squeezed.
Throb. Throb.
A throbbing belly with faint shadows crawling inside ca into view.
Tak. Tak. Tak.
Long, sharp-edged legs moved nimbly.
Each thrust left a deep hole in the ground.
The new guy’s eyes widened, veins popped up along his neck.
"A...a spider??"
The man blurted out in shock.
No, not just an ordinary spider.
"A-a spider queen??"
At that mont, the spider’s legs entered the fifty ters range and a shrill alarm rang throughout the defensive line.
Woongg! Woonggg! Woong!
[Warning! Warning! Detecting an unidentified monster’s presence!]
The people who were lining up at the entrance imdiately stretched their necks towards the distance, their faces turning red.
"What the hell! Is it a dungeon break?"
"Hey, patrol guards! Do sothing!"
The patrol guards on the ground imdiately contacted those at the tower.
"Hey, scouts! What’s the alarm about? What monster??"
The second patrol guard who was still holding the telescope spoke in a shaky voice,
"Wait, it’s a spider...a big, big one...a big belly...i-it might be a spider queen."
"A spider queen??" The ones on the ground clicked their tongues and shouted,
"Activate the city cannons! Hurry!"
The second patrol guard waved at his colleagues and everyone hurriedly ran around.
Zingg. Zingg. Zingg.
Countless cannons turned their long snouts towards the cloud of dust and another shrill alarm sounded.
[Warning! Warning! A monster is detected. A monster is detected.]
The alarm that didn’t sound when Mumu was snuck in blared noisily and red light flickered, sending a chill down the visitors’ spines.
The people at the entrance scrambled closer to the barrier, their faces contorting in anxiety.
"Hey! Let us in! Let us in!"
They punched the golden barrier and roared at the guards who were guarding the barrier tightly.
"We don’t want to die!"
"Yeah, yeah! Let us in!"
"Calm down! Calm down!"
The guards pointed their guns at the rioters while the sharp shooters on the city towers spoke in the voice channel.
"Scouts! Give the signal!"
But the second patrol guard didn’t send out the shooting signal just yet.
"Wait! I see sothing else— I’ll connect the vision!"
The telescope’s vision was imdiately connected to the post and a huge 3D holographic image appeared in the air.
Bzzztt. Bzzt.
The rioting visitors and guards subconsciously looked up.
As the 3D holographic image flickered, the vision slowly crept up.
The first thing that appeared were the sharp curved fangs dripping with saliva.
"Hiek!" So ordinary visitors hiccuped, their eyes wide in horror.
Awakener visitors and hunters just squinted their eyes as the image crept up.
Flash.
Four pairs of green light oozing with malice cut through the air, staring at them.
"Huh!" The Awakeners and hunters held their breaths.
Those gaze—
Ferocious.
Not an ordinary mob monster.
Their hearts thumped as the vision crawled up to the top of the spider’s huge head.
And there—
A pair of shoes flashed.
Tak.
The patrol guard dropped the telescope and the 3D holographic image blurred.
"A-a-a..."
Only a broken stutter ca out of his mouth, his mind blank.
The other patrol guards and all the visitors outside of the city only saw a flash of n’s shoes and then nothing.
But the chaotic place suddenly fell into a deep silence.
Everyone’s hearts rose to their throats.
What...was that?
Shoes?
Above a monster’s head?
The site was silent for a few seconds before the patrol guards on the ground yelled to the voice channel.
"Scouts!! Get the image! Quick!"
A third patrol guard quickly grabbed the telescope and replied in a hurry,
"Y-yes, yes, on it!"
The mont the third patrol guard zood in his vision, the 3D holographic image also zood in, and then...
A pair of giant feet flashed in the air.
"Huh!"
The third patrol guard held his breath as he slowly moved the telescope upwards.
The 3D holographic image changed from the legs to the waist, the chest...
Just when the telescope rose higher, passing by the neck—
The person in the holographic image suddenly turned his head around.
Tak.
A pair of athyst eyes stared right into the lens.
