Under the bombardment of the golden blade, the spiders that had just occupied Moth City suffered heavy casualties in an instant.
Rhodes sensed the falling of the golden blade and immediately dodged his body. If he was hit head-on by this unique spell, he would probably be severely injured in an instant.
"Damn it... Roentgen, I will bear this grudge."
Ms. Spider also understood that it was not appropriate to continue fighting with the powerful high-level priest at this time.
She did not come here to occupy Moth City. Her supplies and logistics are not enough to do this. Now, the best choice is to evacuate.
At her signal, the giant spider began to dig toward the ground. After a while, its entire body was submerged underground, while leaving a wide passage.
The little spiders hid in various locations in the city, and the spider lady also escaped into the underground passage.
After a moment of hesitation, Rhodes called Samson and followed the direction in which Ms. Spider left, entering the entrance of the passage dug by the giant spider.
Just after Rhodes disappeared, the senior priest also came to the entrance of the passage, hesitating slightly, but did not enter it.
When they came to the dark passage, the nearby light had already been swallowed up. Samson could rely on his own ability to perceive everything in the darkness, but Rhodes could not do this.
In desperation, Rhodes used fire magic to light a wooden stick and use it as a simple torch in the underground passage.
The appearance of the fire dispelled the darkness in the passage and allowed Rhodes to see some unusual sights.
Ms. Spider, who entered the passage first, disappeared in an instant, which made Rhodes feel a sense of alarm. There was no trace of her near the passage.
As he kept walking towards the passage, Rhodes couldn't find the figure of Ms. Spider at all. Instead, there were more and more forks in the passage. Rhodes couldn't find the direction at all. He could only follow his own habits and encountered multiple passages.
When there is a fork in the road, always take the rightmost path.
"We've been here twice, what are you doing?"
Before Rhodes noticed anything unusual, Samson took the lead and asked.
Rhodes glanced at him in surprise: "How do you know? Can you sense the nearby terrain?"
There is nothing special as a mark in the passage. Apart from the number of forks, which can be used as a distinction, Rhodes has no idea how Samson came to this conclusion.
Samson replied: "Since I can't see things, my sense of space has become more acute. You go around in this space and finally return to the same place."
Rhodes was a little helpless. It seemed that when he encountered a fork in the road, he always went to the right, which was not a good choice.
In Rhode's impression, there is a special skill called pathfinding, which seems to be able to help this situation. The top pathfinding skill can automatically outline all the maps that have been traveled in the mind, and will never
Getting lost.
In addition, Samson's words also made Rhodes realize something.
Rhodes stretched out his hand and gently touched the wall of the passage, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"What did you find?" Samson asked in a deep voice.
"The passage here is not just excavated, but has been prepared in advance." Rhodes made his own judgment, "The complicated forks in the passage are not prepared for us, but to hinder the enemy's pursuit.
."
Hearing what Rhodes said, Samson also understood what he meant and showed a surprised look.
"What kind of creature can dig such a complex underground passage under Moth City without being discovered by others?"
"Cave people, and spiders." Examining the footprints left in the passage, Rhodes came to his own conclusion, "Those spiders should have been hiding here from the beginning."
The look of surprise on Samson's face was even worse. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and asked proactively: "Wait, aren't you with Ms. Spider? Why are you trapped here?"
Rhodes shook his head: "Actually, I have only met her once, but I think she is quite nice."
Samson's expression changed: "You must be kidding. Ms. Spider is the cruelest heretic. You must not know how many people have died in her hands."
Rhodes shrugged, not paying attention to his words: "You must have no idea how many people have died in my hands."
While Rhodes was talking with Samson, a huge crack suddenly appeared on the passage ahead.
Below the crack, there is a deeper space, and it is difficult for the firelight to reach the location below, but Rhodes did not hesitate for long before entering the crack.
There was a soft touch under his feet, and the ground seemed to have an inexplicable elasticity. Rhodes managed to stabilize his body with great difficulty, and the same was true for Samson.
At this time, Rhodes was surprised to find that his feet seemed to be fixed and could not move a step at all. He brought the torch close to his feet, only to find that it was not the ground at all, but hanging in the air, intertwined with silver threads.
A big web, a spider web for catching prey.
Not far away, several skeletons clinging to the spider webs, huddled together, without flesh and blood, were seen by Rhodes. Those skeletons were much shorter than ordinary human skeletons, and there were no openings for eyes on the skulls.
That was the body of a caveman. Just as Rhodes expected, such a complex underground passage would definitely require the help of cavemen to dig it.
The corpses of the cavemen in front of us should have accidentally fallen from the passage, got trapped in the spider webs, and finally became food for the spiders.
The elasticity of the spider web was beyond Rhodes' imagination. He tried to tear the spider web open with his hands, but in the end, his whole hand was stuck. And Samson was not much better. His sword blade could not cut through the strong spider web.
, but it got stuck in the spider web and couldn’t be taken back.
Rhodes thought for a while, and now, perhaps only with the help of the power of magic can he escape from the cobweb and get rid of the current predicament.
Before Rhodes could ignite the huge spider web, eight scarlet photoelectrics arranged on two sides in the darkness aroused his vigilance.
Under Rhodes' gaze, Ms. Spider was riding a giant spider and crawling along the spider web.
"Why are you? Didn't the high-ranking priest chase you?" She looked at the two people on the spider web indifferently and said slowly.
"Except for us, no enemy is chasing us." Rhodes replied slowly.
Ms. Spider snorted coldly: "It seems that the high-ranking priest has seen through this trap. She will not come underground before the real apostle arrives. It's you, what do you want me to do?"
I don't know if it was her signal, but the giant spider slowly stepped forward. After getting closer, it stared at Rhodes with its eight fist-sized eyes. Rhodes could see the spike-like down on the giant spider's body, as well as two...
