Chapter 726 Cave Fishing for Crabs

Qiao An ignored the crab-shaped monster's bluffing resistance, remote-controlled the "Mage Nether Palm", and slapped it hard!

puff!

The giant black palm hit the crab-shaped monster's back, hitting half of its body into the ground, making a hissing and moaning sound, obviously very painful.

Joan's face was expressionless, his pupils dilated sharply, and he entered the state of "dual distraction" again.

The main character remotely controlled the giant black palm to continue to suppress the crab-shaped monster, and the secondary personality made a series of skillful gestures and chanted spells.

"Tinwé!"

It's the same elven mantra that symbolizes "flash and thunder", but what Joan casts at this moment is not the 3rd ring "Lightning Beam", but the 1st ring "Electric Claw".

The magic power gathered in Joan's left hand, intertwined into a blue and white electric snake that wandered and flickered.

This frantic lightning energy didn't stay at his fingertips for too long, and in a blink of an eye, it was transmitted to the "Mage Nether Palm" that suppressed the crab-shaped monster a hundred feet away.

"Mage Nether Palm", in addition to being able to remotely attack enemies like "Mage Strike Palm", has another feature, that is, it can transmit contact spells.

The black giant palm of the electric snake is like Joan's third hand, blasting lightning energy into the crab-shaped monster through the fingertips.

In the pile of rocks, a burst of crackling electric sparks flashed.

The crab-shaped monster was shocked to the point where its claws trembled wildly, its protruding eyeballs burst one after another, and wisps of black smoke with a strong burning smell came out, and soon stopped struggling under the suppression of the giant palm.

The touch from the "Mage Nether Palm" convinced Joan that the monster had died, so he remotely controlled the giant palm and dragged the monster's body over.

"Evelyn, thank you just now."

Joan turned around and nodded to thank the sorceress in blue who was standing not far behind.

"Mr. Vader, you don't have to be polite. In fact, you can take care of this monster without me intervening."

The sorceress smiled gently, her eyes shining brightly in the darkness.

"Holden was worried that it would be unsafe for you to stay away from the camp alone, so he specially sent me to follow. If you need help, just ask, and you don't need to see outside."

Hearing what she said, Joan immediately realized that Holden had seen that he was wary of Evelyn, but his hostile attitude was not as obvious as his sister and Hailar, so he took the opportunity to ask Evelyn to help , in an attempt to win his favor.

It's not difficult for Joan to imagine that after this, Holden might encourage himself to come forward and say a few good words for Evelyn in front of his sister and Hailar, and gradually resolve their grudges against Evelyn.

I have to say, this kid Holden really has such a talent for "diplomacy"!

Even though Joan had already seen that he had a plan in his stomach, he still had to accept the favor.

Besides, Evelyn did help him just now, and his impression of her has indeed improved.

Holden is a person who is usually too lazy to use his brain when doing things, but when it comes to "picking up girls", he does not hesitate to rack his brains, and his IQ is on the line.

Joan really didn't know what to say about him.

"Mr. Vader, what are you going to do with this cave crab?"

Evelyn's question interrupted Joan's thinking.

"It turns out that this monster is a 'cave fishing crab'..."

Joan once saw an introduction to "Cave Fishing Crab" in a certain volume of "Vares Monster Illustrated Book".

It's a pity that the records in the book are just a rough idea, and the illustrations are far less vivid than what he saw with his own eyes, so that he didn't recognize it just now.

"Anyway, let's go back first, lest Holden and the others miss it."

Joan remotely controlled the "Mage's Nether Palm", dragged the corpse of the cave fishing crab, and turned to walk to the river beach where the campfire was fading. Evelyn followed suit.

Not far away, Joan saw a slim figure galloping towards him, with two ponytails like dancing elves.

"Joan! Are you all right?"

Hailaer waved to this side while running.

"I'm fine, and I caught a cave fishing crab." Joan replied with a wave.

Hailar didn't care about his prey, ran over to look him up and down, and smiled reassuringly after confirming that he was safe and sound.

"You left the camp for a walk alone. Holden was a little worried, so he asked Evelyn to come out and find you."

Hailar glanced at the sorceress behind Joan, and said to him in a low voice, "Audrey is worried, let me come and take a look."

"I'm a little worried" and "I'm not at ease", these two phrases have almost the same literal meaning, but when they are spoken by Hailaer, they contain two different deep meanings.

Holden was worried about Joan because he was worried that he might be attacked by monsters if he left the camp alone.

Audrey's worry was mainly not because he was worried that Joan would be attacked by a monster, but because he was worried that he would be alone with Evelyn.

If Evelyn really has bad intentions, Joan, who is alone in the wilderness, is likely to become the target of her sneak attack.

Audrey sent Hailar to meet Joan, but she actually had the intention of guarding against Evelyn.

It took Joan a lot of brainstorming to figure out what Hailaer meant, really tired.

On the way back to the camp, Joan told Hyrule how he hunted the cave fishing crab with the help of Evelyn.

After hearing this, Hailar felt guilty for being suspicious, so he stopped, waited for Evelyn to follow, and took the initiative to chat with her.

Although there are still mostly awkward chats, at least the prejudice against Evelyn is not as deep as before.

Audrey and Holden stood by the bonfire at the campsite. Seeing Joan and the others return safely, they dragged a strange creature and came forward curiously to watch.

Holden walked around the corpse of the cave fishing crab twice, touched his chin and asked, "What kind of spider is this? It's really big!"

"It's not a spider."

Evelyn explained with a smile.

"Although this monster can spin silk like a spider, it is actually a kind of crab that lives on land. It is called a cave fishing crab. It is more common in caves in the Underdark."

"This guy looks really weird!"

Audrey's curiosity is stronger than that of her younger brother.

"Joan, did you bring this weird big crab back to roast and eat it, or to use it as research material?"

"I don't know if the meat of the cave crab is delicious, but the silk it spits out is very valuable."

Joan remotely controlled the big magic hand, picked up the transparent silk thread hanging from the nose of the cave fishing crab, and showed it to Audrey.

"This kind of silk is about the same thickness as the phase spider's silk, and the color is also very similar. It is almost impossible to distinguish the difference when mixed together. However, in fact, the texture of these two silk threads is very different."

"Phase spider silk is very soft and suitable for weaving. It also has two forms of 'material' and 'spiritual body', but it lacks the load-bearing capacity and is easy to break."

"The silk thread of the cave fishing crab has better toughness, can withstand high loads and is not easy to break, which can just make up for the shortcomings of the phase spider silk."

At this moment, in Joan's mind, a complete set of enchanting plans has been formed.

After finishing this underground adventure and returning to school, he combined the two kinds of silk threads and spun them into a gauze, which was used as the embryo material of a magic weapon.
