Chapter 718 Intuition

Hailar put on a pair of leather gloves, quickly climbed into the net pocket, pushed away the spider eggs, picked up the magic crystals scattered on the net one by one, and collected them into a pocket.

After working for more than half an hour, Hailaer finally cleaned up all the magic crystals on the spider web.

The female swordsman jumped off the spider web, picked up the bag and weighed it, and it weighed about two pounds.

Two pounds of magic crystals, calculated according to the market price, is almost 20,000 Gold Durga.

"Get rich! Get rich!"

Hailaer was so happy that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear.

"Two pounds of magic crystals, the four of us will share them equally, eight ounces each!"

"Haha! What a windfall! Audrey, come and pinch me and tell me this is not a dream!"

"I can't bear to pinch you, can I kiss you to wake you up?"

Audrey approached her with a smile, pursed her plump and sexy red lips, and kissed her cheek.

"That's enough! I'm a hardcore straight daughter, but I don't have that weird habit!"

Hyrule can't stand Audrey's... well, is this considered an exotic style?

"No wonder your brother is so lustful, it turns out that the root of it all lies with my sister!"

Hailar had heard that in the high society of Fizhen Kingdom, there were occasional female aristocrats who married in private. Audrey's slightly exaggerated joke just now was not worth making a fuss about.

After the excitement of making a fortune passed, Hyrule followed Audrey out of the "incubation room" and explored the "backyard" of the spider's lair.

Not far away, I saw red marks on the ground, with a faint smell of blood.

The blood of the mutant spider is not red.

The bloodstains on the feet are more likely to come from humanoids.

Audrey and Hailaer looked at each other, both on guard.

Slow down and search forward along the bloodstains, and soon found two prone corpses.

Hailar rotated the head of the lamp to switch the lighting mode of the miner's lamp from "concentrating" to "scattering".

In this mode, the range of the magic light source is shortened, but the illumination range is wider, which is convenient for observing nearby things.

Using the light, the two carefully inspected the corpse.

Judging from their stocky stature and bushy beards, the two corpses were all dwarves, holding heavy and sharp pickaxes tightly in their hands, wearing exploration uniforms, and the miner's lamp embedded in the helmet had been shattered.

Not far from the two dwarf corpses, a phase spider lay on its back, dead.

There is a large area of ​​scorched black marks on the chest, which seems to have suffered a severe electric shock, and there are many wounds on the body. Judging from the wounds, it looks like a chisel wound caused by a pickaxe.

Based on all the signs at the scene, Hailar concluded: "It seems that the sorceress named Evelyn is not lying. Her two dwarf companions fought this phase spider to the end and died together."

Audrey was noncommittal, walked straight to the corpse of the phase spider, patted the spider's round belly with the scabbard, and raised the corners of her lips slightly.

"Now Joan is happy, he likes this."

"You'd better make it clear, he only wants the silk sacs in the belly of the phase spider, and he doesn't like women with big bellies." Hailar said angrily.

"Anyway, let's keep going and see where this road leads eventually." Audrey stepped forward.

The next section of the road was uneventful, except for chopping down a few big spiders that didn't know what to do, there was nothing worth mentioning.

When Hyrule and Audrey finally came to the back door of the spider's lair, they found an open underground hill in front of them.

In the darkness farther away, the mountains undulate, like a giant python stretching towards the distance.

"It seems that we have passed through the valley and entered the hinterland of the Nida Mountains."

Audrey stood at the entrance of the cave, thinking about it.

"This proves Evelyn's statement again." Hailar frowned slightly, "Although all the evidence shows that she is an honest person, I have an inexplicable intuition that tells me that this woman cannot be trusted."

"I also have the same intuition." Audrey sighed, "But I can't be sure whether it's a foresight, a precautionary attitude towards strangers, or just jealousy towards beautiful people of the same sex."

"Huh? According to that, I'm not pretty enough?" Hailar made inferences.

Audrey couldn't continue with these words, she gave her a blank look, then turned around and went back the same way.

On the way back, Audrey and Hyrule brought the phase spider and the bodies of the two dwarves with them.

When passing by the "Nursery", Qiao An sent the "Wind Speed ​​Technique" again, asking them to destroy the spider eggs by the way, so as to avoid future troubles.

In addition, Joan also told them to keep two intact spider eggs and bring them back for him to see.

It's not an easy job.

It took a lot of effort for the two girls to drag the corpse and spider eggs out of the cave.

Outside the spider cave, Holden only had a lively chat with Evelyn. Seeing her sister dragging the corpse of the phase spider back, she was so tired that her forehead was sweating, she was panting heavily, and she didn't intend to reach out to help, Audrey was so angry that she gave him a hard look.

Audrey threw the corpse of the phase spider outside the east gate, and then went back to help Hailar drag out the two dwarf corpses, as well as the spider eggs that Joan wanted.

Through Gulu's eyes, Joan watched Audrey and Hyrule's exploration in the spider cave.

Now that they had returned safely, and Holden's side was still doing as usual, his long-hanging heart finally fell to the ground, he put away the "shelter hut" and rushed to join his companions.

At the entrance of the cave, Joan first checked the corpses of the two dwarves, and found a gold necklace with a nameplate hanging around their necks.

Joan took off the nameplate and looked at it. There were dwarf characters engraved on both sides.

Joan was fairly familiar with the language of the dwarves. When translated into human language, the nameplate read "Nidaville" on the front, and the dwarf's name and clan of origin on the back.

Just to be on the safe side, Joan called Holden over and asked him to use the "translator lens" to check the two nameplates.

The results showed that his translation just now was basically correct.

Judging from the information revealed on the nameplate, these two dwarves are both exploration team members from Nidaville Fortress.

This fact, which fits perfectly with the self-introduction Evelyn had given earlier, lends her a certain degree of credibility as a person.

After burying the dwarf's body, Joan went on to check the phase spider body that Audrey and Hylar specially brought back for him, as well as the two large mutant spider eggs.

Joan has already dissected one of the phase spiders, and has a full understanding of its body structure.

The dissecting instruments were taken out, the belly was disemboweled on the spot, the silk capsule was completely removed, and put into a storage bag.

Now Joan has two silk sacs in his hand, and the extracted phase spider silk is enough to weave a large web.

Putting away the silk sac of the phase spider, Joan then looked at the two mutant spider eggs that were as big as pumpkins.

His beast-like intuition told him that these two eggs were also rare and good things!
