Zachary used his Shadow Pace to dodge the attack. At the same time, he channeled his Energy Perception Technique to identify the Black Queen Spider's flaws. After several exchanges, the spider realized that it couldn't do anything to harm him at all. It immediately tried to manipulate its six strong legs as it rushed towards him. Its two sharp front limbs then crashed on the ground as it moved forward. In an instant, deep holes appeared on the area where it landed. It was obvious that it exerted almost all of its strength.
Zachary also gave everything he had to dodge the blow. Judging from the huge holes its fore limbs had created, he could tell the strength of the Black Queen Spider shouldn't be underestimated. He could be gravely injured with a single hit.
It would be totally wrong to think that the Black Queen Spider could only use brute force. It was also quite intelligent. Just as Zachary was busy dodging, a white spider web suddenly formed under his feet. It was a trap set by the beast to try and catch him. Being distracted a bit, he couldn't react fast enough to the white spider web.
The Black Queen Spider took the opportunity and dashed towards Zachary, leaving him no chance to escape the trap.
But just as the spider was about to hit Zachary, three Ice Needles shot out and flew towards its hard shell. With a loud bang, its huge body lost its balance and fell backwards with its legs in the air. It then struggled to get back on its feet. It continued to spin around, but it couldn't get up no matter how hard it tried.
"Although I haven't completely analyzed your energy circulation, I can still spot your weaknesses," said Zachary as he curled up his lips.
But the Black Queen Spider's strength was at the first grade of Imperial Level which meant it shouldn't be taken lightly. So even though Zachary was able to find its weak spots and make it lose its balance, it would not just sit and watch while he took its life. A white thread was immediately shot out of its head which then surrounded a tall tree in the swamp. The thread then pulled its huge body up as it hung in the air. It created a significant distance between the Black Queen Spider and Zachary.
"Do you really think you'll increase your chances of surviving by pulling yourself away from me?" Zachary said with a grin on his face. A golden flame suddenly rose from his palm. He then threw it towards the Black Queen Spider hanging in the air.
It was impossible for it to dodge the flame because it was still stuck in midair.
Bang!
The moment the flame touched the Black Queen Spider's body, a stronger flame burst out and enveloped it in an instant due to the dense marsh gas that surrounded it. The Black Queen Spider had been living in the marsh all year round, causing it to accumulate a significant a
aze was before he could try determining its rules. On the other hand, Zachary began to recall everything he had been through on his way there. Although he had been moving forward, he doubted that it was just an illusion. In fact, it was very likely that he had been walking around in circles without even realizing it.
In order to confirm his speculations, Zachary used his treasure hunting experience to carry out a position test. He used some of his auxiliary tools to measure the distance between the two black stone walls. As a result, he was able to conclude that the two black stone walls were seemingly parallel to each other. However, they became smaller and smaller as they extended south and bigger and bigger as they extended north, which meant that the maze was either a triangle or a polygon.
It also meant that if Zachary went north, it was more likely for him to find another entrance.
He decided to continue moving north. After about half a day, he successfully found the next entrance. Similarly, after passing through the entrance, the entrance behind him disappeared once again. He then used the same method to decide which direction he should go next. This time, he knew he had to walk south.
After walking south for about six hours, he finally found another entrance. With the positioning test, he headed north next. In less than two hours, he found another entrance.
After another hour, he was able to pass through another entrance. What appeared in front of him this time was not a black stone wall anymore, but a cave-like stone chamber instead. It was dark and the ground was covered with thick dust. Many lifelike sculptures were carved on the stone wall.
At the center of the stone chamber was a crystal jade tablet. In the jade tablet were faint lights that constantly flickered. It was giving out a strange aura he had never felt before.
