Chapter 208 The Mysterious Shadow Spider Queen

Three days later, Isabel led the priest team and the wizards of the Tower of Knowledge to go south together.

After Chu Ming said goodbye to the girl, he found Edel who was planning to open up the Dark Land.

In the Xindu Castle, when Chu Ming proposed to enter the Dark Land, Edel showed a hint of doubt on his face.

"Nalund, it will take at least a month to gather and prepare the pioneering knights..."

Chu Ming waved his hand and said, "I don't expect the knights to keep up with me. You give me the planned route map. When I pass by, I will help the pioneering knights to clean up the dangers along the way."

"If there are legendary creatures entrenched in it, I will come back to remind you."

Edel nodded solemnly, "I'll leave it to you."

He handed the drawn route map to Chu Ming and explained the situation in the Dark Land in detail.

After listening, Chu Ming patted his shoulder, left the castle, and came to the border of the Dark Land.

"Lord Nalund."

Several pioneering generals on duty here greeted them. They were all dark blue knights promoted from the original wizard knights. Although their abilities were slightly lacking, they were trustworthy.

Chu Ming nodded to everyone, "I'll trouble you for the next development."

Several generals hurriedly said, "It's our honor to be able to participate in such a grand development plan."

"By the way, Lord Nalund, are you going to enter the Dark Forest?"

"Yes."

Chu Ming walked to the front of the Dark Forest, "No need to bother."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud rumbling sound came from the Dark Forest in front of him. In the shocked eyes of the knights, the forest seemed to be squeezed by an inexplicable force, and the black trees broke one after another, automatically separating a path.

Chu Ming walked into the Dark Forest, and his figure was gradually swallowed by the darkness.

The black fog was pervasive, and the further he walked inside, the dimmer the sunlight became. Chu Ming stopped until the sky was completely covered by darkness.

The footsteps stopped, and the Dark Forest fell into a strange silence. Although he could not hear any sound, Chu Ming could always feel that there were creatures nearby watching him.

"What effect will the burning ghost blessed by the taboo be..."

Chu Ming whispered in a low voice and tapped his fingers.

Boom... a wisp of purple flame burned from his fingertips.

The sudden appearance of light stimulated the creatures in the dark, and a bloody wind suddenly rushed from the bushes, and the ghost fire flames swayed slightly.

Chu Ming's left hand turned into a residual image and grabbed the throat of the attacking creature.

"Ghoul?"

"Why do you come to me if you don't eat corpses?"

Chu Ming exerted a little force with his left hand, and the ghoul wailed, and the cervical vertebrae cracked and shattered.

As the forbidden power poured in, the ghoul's body was pierced, the fire of life gradually extinguished, and the head drooped weakly.

Chu Ming's face did not change, and he threw the ghoul back into the bushes like throwing garbage.

Suddenly there was a roar and the sound of flesh and blood being torn, and the ghoul was eaten clean by other dark creatures.

Their bloodthirsty eyes moved away from the pool of blood and continued to stare at Chu Ming.

But what they didn't know was that the crisis was about to come.

Chu Ming flicked the ghost fire flame off the ground and continued to walk towards the depths of darkness.

On the ground, the will-o'-the-wisp flickered with an eternal light. Suddenly, several fire creatures that looked like little paper figures walked towards the surrounding forests with laughter.

…

After leaving the place where the will-o'-the-wisp was placed for more than ten kilometers, Chu Ming picked up a broken crystal on the ground and took a look.

Suddenly, in the corner of his eyes, the forest behind him actually bloomed with a will-o'-the-wisp flower that was hundreds of meters high and illuminated the area of ​​dozens of kilometers.

The will-o'-the-wisp flower swayed silently, and the purple flame wave was like a breeze, drowning the place where Chu Ming was, and surging towards the dark forest in the distance.

"Roar!!!"

Painful roars came from the forest one after another, and some tall epic creatures woke up from their slumber, roaring crazily and trampling the forest.

But after a few seconds, these creatures all fell to the ground powerlessly, becoming a corpse burning with nameless flames.

Chu Ming continued to walk forward, and the surrounding forest returned to silence completely, the gazes disappeared, and even the black fog became much thinner.

When he completely walked out of the range of the purple flame wave, the surrounding scenery showed new changes.

In front of Chu Ming, a river came down from the snow-capped mountains of the Tianqian Mountains and flowed eastward.

This was his first time to enter such a deep place. As soon as he arrived here, he felt several strong auras.

Chu Ming looked at the map in his hand, with a bit of surprise on his face, "Epic one-star creatures have begun to appear in this place alone, no wonder it is so difficult to open up."

"Let me see where you are all..."

After lighting a ghost fire seed on the spot, Chu Ming put a spiritual imprint on a black tree a thousand meters away, and then quickly disappeared from the spot.

After several consecutive teleportations, he appeared at the foot of the Tianqian Mountains.

On the top of the mountain, a huge human-shaped black shadow was stirring the black fog, and the red light in the one eye swept around, as if holding some mysterious ceremony.

"Dark Giant?!"

It was indeed a dark giant, but the aura of the dark giant in front of him was much weaker than the one he met in the forest a few years ago.

If he remembered correctly, it meant that there was definitely more than one dark giant.

"A mysterious tribe of dark creatures, and their strength is all above epic. These dark giants may pose a threat to the Pioneer Knights."

Chu Ming did not take action immediately, but silently observed the dark giant's actions.

After a while, the will-o'-the-wisp seed he planted finally exploded. Huge will-o'-the-wisp flowers bloomed in the forest, and a wave of purple fire swept to the foot of the mountain range.

The dark giant paused, as if he had noticed something moving in the forest.

After standing there for a while, the giant seemed to have sensed the danger and climbed towards the Tianqi Mountains as if to escape, leaving Chu Ming with a embarrassed figure.

"Dark giant...the target is suspected to have intelligence."

Chu Ming opened the notebook he carried with him and recorded this with the black juice squeezed from the tree vines.

Then he set his sights on the giant, slowly floated up, and followed its footsteps to the other side of the Tianqian Mountains.

The giant climbed up and down the towering mountains and rested several times.

After Chu Ming observed this phenomenon, he gained a new understanding of the dark giant he encountered before.

"This dark giant is only close to the strength of the epic two-star, and the dark giant a few years ago was able to easily cross the Tianqi Mountains. Maybe it is close to the legend, or even the legendary level."

Thinking of this, Chu Ming frowned secretly.

But the specific situation will not be known until he follows the giant over the Tianqi Mountains.

Strictly speaking, the location of the depths of the Dark Land is among the mountains in the middle of the Intinuit continent, and that is also the place where the Kingdom of Gods fell. It is full of various taboos and dangers, so it is also called It is a forbidden area for myths.

In reality, there are also a large number of ruins gathered in the middle of the continent. The Card Master Alliance follows the example of other worlds and calls the areas where such legends or myths may appear as myth forbidden areas.

When Chu Ming was choosing a school before, the reason why he did not consider colleges and universities in the alliance cities of the Western Continent was because if he wanted to reach the Western Continent, he had to take the wilderness train that circled the continent. It had to start from the eastern part of the continent and go to the northern station, and then go around half of the continent. To reach the west, the round trip is too far.

Chu Ming's figure was hidden in the black mist, and his head started to work. "Although the route map to the King's Peninsula planned by Edel does not pass through the Myth Forbidden Zone, it may also be within the radiation range of the Myth Forbidden Zone. If there are any legendary creatures coming from the Mythology Zone, It’s troublesome to run out of the penalty area.”

Generally speaking, dark creatures polluted by darkness will follow their bloodline instinct and not easily leave their territory.

But not all dark creatures are without intelligence. By chance, there will still be dark creatures that can give birth to wisdom, such as the dark giant in front of him.

Although these dark creatures also have territorial awareness, if one day they get crazy and want to leave the territory, this kind of thing will not happen.

"These dark giants don't look like they are twitchy. They seem to be patrolling this dark place consciously."

"We have to find out what these dark giants are doing..."

Chu Ming glanced at the dark giant for a few times and followed it up the mountains.

Three days later, the dark giant climbed over the mountain range, which was like a huge wall in the world, and set foot on the back of the mountain range with no end in sight.

Chu Ming floated near the giant and looked down. Under the plain-like ridge were black clouds that were so dark that they could drip with ink. Above the sky was black that could not be expressed in words. This dark sky was like It was swallowing up the world like a black hole, and he could feel the malice of the darkness towards the world.

The dark giant took steps towards the distance, and soon disappeared into the boundless darkness.

Chu Ming came to his senses and floated towards the direction where the giant left.

Boom...boom...boom...

In the monotonous silence of the darkness, only the giant's footsteps echoed.

The giant took the trouble and walked forward resolutely. After an unknown amount of time, when Chu Ming's spirit gradually fell into numbness, more heavy footsteps sounded.

Chu Ming looked into the darkness and saw two dark giants walking silently in the darkness.

Their single, glowing red eyes only glanced at each other for a few times, and then returned to their silent journey.

After walking for another few dozen minutes, a cliff appeared in front of them. The dark giants jumped into the black clouds one after another without hesitation.

Seeing this, Chu Ming quickly followed and penetrated the black clouds. After a while, his eyes lit up and a faint golden light appeared.

"This is?"

His eyes moved forward, and he saw a golden beam of light rising into the sky in the dark world!

The black mist created ripples around the thick golden light pillar like a pillar of the sky. Around the light pillar, the broken tower towered into the clouds. The huge tower body even made Chu Ming, who was near the Tianqian Mountains, All can be seen.

"This is...the ruins of the Kingdom of God?!"

While Chu Ming was shocked, he also felt alert.

"This should be the outskirts of the Mythical Forbidden Zone. There are such magnificent ruins of the Kingdom of God. Maybe there are legendary creatures wandering nearby."

He was alert in his heart, and followed the three giants secretly towards the ruins of the giant tower.

Entering a dilapidated building, he saw gold jewelry scattered on the floor and spiders crawling all over the house.

Some memories suddenly emerged in his mind, and what Alan said to him rang out, "Alan said that the remnants of the 'wisdom' clan - the golden clan once lived here, and maybe these gold jewelry were left behind by them. ”

"Are they here for that golden beam of light?"

Chu Ming focused his gaze on the golden light beam that illuminated the darkness in the distance, and followed the footsteps of the dark giant.

The giant walked tirelessly for three days and three nights, crossing the ruins and arriving at the ruined city under the giant tower.

As soon as Chu Ming followed the giant into it, he felt uncomfortable all over, as if something was staring at him.

He was stunned for a moment and frowned.

After observing the surroundings for a while, Chu Ming suddenly discovered that there were an astonishing number of spiders here, and there were white spider webs everywhere.

He could feel the gaze of some of the spiders lingering on him.

Suddenly, the dark giant in front stopped and stood still on the ruins like a stone sculpture.

Chu Ming looked in the direction of the ruins. There were twelve dark giants in total, raising their heads high as if they were welcoming something.

He followed the giant's gaze and suddenly saw ripples like water appearing on the broken tower in the distance. Thick white pillars extended upward, forming a neat structure.

Chu Ming woke up with a start. He found that these white pillars were nothing but spider webs, that is to say...

He slowly looked toward the center of the spider web that wrapped around the tower, and a thick and slender spider leg appeared. In front of this spider leg, the dark giant seemed small.

Chu Ming's eyes were solemn, and he looked up along the pitch black that occupied his field of vision. He saw a purple mysterious gauze skirt hanging down, and on the spider body full of magic patterns was the half body of a human female.

He closed his eyes tightly. Under his long black hair, which was like silky satin, there was a peerless face that was intertwined with holiness and charm. Luosha covered the peaks. His skin was as moist as jade, bursts of fluorescence, and there was a circle of divine light around his body.

Chu Ming just stared at the woman for a few seconds, and suddenly an irritated whisper arose in his heart, and he fell into a trance.

The whispers sounded like prayers and supplications, but they all repeated one name - the Shadow Spider Queen.

Just when Chu Ming was about to sink into whispers, the life stigmata on his right hand suddenly emitted a faint green light, pulling him out of his trance.

He looked up and saw that the spider silk wrapped around the tower had disappeared, and even the mysterious woman who looked like a god had also disappeared.

"The Shadow Spider Queen...what kind of creature is this?"

Chu Ming felt a little heavy in his heart and set his sights on the dark giant.

"Could these dark giants be created by Him? This is going to be difficult..."

The Shadow Spider Queen seemed to be sleeping, otherwise based on Chu Ming's snooping just now, he might be dead by now.

"I definitely can't defeat the Shadow Spider Queen, but I can't just let these dark giants go."

"If we let them cross the Tianqi Mountains again, I don't know what trouble they will cause for the Pioneer Knights."

After thinking for a while, Chu Ming's figure slowly disappeared into the darkness. He was waiting for an opportunity.

After half a month passed, the dark giant that Chu Ming had been guarding for a long time finally moved. The three of them formed a team and walked in four directions.

Dong dong dong...

As the footsteps gradually faded away, Chu Ming realized that the opportunity had come. He branded his spirit on a giant, quickly tore through the night, transformed into a wave of distortion, and swallowed and crushed the three epic dark giants.

After taking care of these three dark giants, Chu Ming did not stop his action and continued to tear through the night, rushing towards another group of dark giants.

boom! !

This time the dark giants reacted in advance. They waved their fists and smashed into the night, but it was of no use. Chu Ming's body exploded into blood mist and then turned into a wave of distortion that swallowed the three dark giants.

Having just finished dealing with the two groups of dark giants, Chu Ming was about to continue teleporting to deal with the remaining dark giants. Suddenly, his mind was shaken, his blood vessels swelled, and he felt as if his soul was out of body and he was looking at the giant tower uncontrollably.

Even though there seemed to be only a shadow writhing there, he felt as if he was being watched by some kind of existence.

"Oops……"

Chu Ming wanted to break free from this control, but his body was still out of control. His perspective remained fixed in the middle of the tower. Gradually, he felt that his spirit became more and more chaotic and his consciousness became blurred.

"It won't just be... the end..."

This thought flashed through his heart, and suddenly, golden and green light emanated from his body. A touch of green light awakened his spirit with vitality, and Chu Ming woke up from the chaos.

"hehe……"

A woman's ethereal chuckle appeared in his mind, and there was a hint of charm in the beautiful voice.

Chu Ming came back to his senses, and without hesitation, he immediately withdrew the night cover and fled in the direction of the Tianqi Mountains.

A few minutes later, Chu Ming appeared in the ruins. He was panting heavily and his back was covered with sweat.

Before he could show his thankful expression, the history book next to him was flipping, and a mysterious purple light flashed on the page.

[Blessing: Blessing of life (permanent), shadow mark (permanent)]

[Shadow mark: The shadow is watching you, it can always find you, I don’t know whether it will bring good things or disasters. 】

Chu Ming closed his eyes and felt his body. After an unknown amount of time, he opened his eyes with a heavy look on his face.

He was completely unaware of the existence of the so-called shadow mark, and this mark was different from ordinary blessings in that it could last until his subsequent writing.

"Could it be that this guy can't wake up now and plans to settle the score with me next time he writes?"

Chu Ming broke out in cold sweat again and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It seems like we got into some big trouble..."

Chu Ming sighed, tearing apart the night and teleporting across the Tianqi Mountains.

One day later, he returned to the dark forest.

He returned to the border of the Dark Land and saw that the mighty pioneering knights had already started. As the army swept through, the black trees fell one after another and the black fog dissipated.

Seeing this scene, Chu Ming felt relieved.

As long as the dark forest under the Tianqian Mountains was cleared, the dark giants should not set foot in this land.

However, the possibility of the dark giant appearing is not impossible. What if the shadow spider queen is very vengeful?
