[Sunlight Sensitivity]: Under sunlight, this unit’s attack is at a disadvantage, with all attributes reduced.
[ Spider Walk]: This unit can climb on difficult terrains, including but not limited to ceilings, trees, cliffs, and other special terrains.
[Spiderling Spellcasting]: The Spider Fateweaver is a natural spellcaster, capable of casting spells like[Venom Spray][Disaster Spell]without learning and mastering them, and possesses a strong ability to learn magic.
[Multiple Attacks]: Being multi-legged gives this unit innate capabilities to initiate multiple attacks.

[Venom Spray]: Sprays venomous foam, causing venom damage to the units in front.
[Disaster Spell]: Targets a maximum of five creatures, releasing the Disaster Spell, causing the target units to enter a weakened state, increasing damage taken by 20% when attacked.
(Description: They were repelled by the ‘living creatures,’ driven into the depths of dark territories, becoming hermits and hunters, wandering alone or leading giant spiders near their dens.)
Domina’s attributes are quite decent.
Even though she isn’t a hero, she’s not far from one in terms of attributes.
Particularly the skill! Spiderling Spellcasting] – she naturally knows two spells and has strong magic learning capabilities.
When training her, one could lean more towards magic.
But the[Multiple Attacks]and[Stepping Longsword]also give her decent melee capabilities, making her a good candidate as a melee mage.
Fang Hao and the others returned from behind.
Domina glanced at her worried clansmen and said, “Alright, the matter is resolved. Everyone, return back to the dense forest, back to your posts.”
Swish!
The spiders and the Spiderling Sprites followed the command and returned directly into the dense forest.
[Spiderling Archer (Level 5)].
[Spiderling Warrior (Level 4)].
[Giant Spider Hatchlings (Level 1)].
Fang Hao quickly scanned the names of several spider people around him.
The levels of the spider people were basically at level 4 and level 5. After scanning several, he did not discover any that had broken through to level 6. And in the spider horde, the most abundant was the Giant Spider Hatchlings.
As big as a washbasin, there were hundreds and thousands of them.
It seems that a complete professional system and division of work have evolved here.
Although they are called Spiderling Sprites, they were no different from a normal human city.
They all belong to the command group, only differing in their appearances.
Fang Hao and the others followed Domina into the dense forest along the main road.
The environment of the Spider Forest was well preserved.
Sunlight penetrated through the leaves, casting a warm orange glow.
If it were not for the white spider webs covering the trees on either side, and the Giant Spider Hatchlings crawling on the web watching them.
Perhaps it would be a good time to admire the natural scenery and enjoy the beauty of the forest.
Continuing along the path.
The position of the Webweaver’s camp is now visible.
A wooden wall five to six meters high, the top of which was a white dome woven by white spider webs.
At this moment, countless Giant Spider Hatchlings were repairing the spider web that had just been torn open by the Dragon Breath.
In front of the camp was a huge ancient tree.
The trunk was as sturdy as a round table, and the canopy was lush. It was wrapped in white spider web, like a large cotton candy standing there.
On the spider webs of the ancient tree, human-shaped prey wrapped in silk threads hung like white mummies, constantly writhing and struggling.
It seemed they were still alive.
Fang Hao’s brow furrowed slightly. The scene before him was a tough one to forget.
Monsters that hunt intelligent species, considering humans and orcs as reserves of food.
“What are these?”
Domina glanced at the old tree. Her voice was still cold, “Some gnolls who thought we were easy to bully. If it weren’t for them, the nest wouldn’t be on alert, nor would…”
Domina didn’t finish her sentence, but from the look she gave Fang Hao, he could understand her meaning.
If it weren’t for the alert state, the spider archers wouldn’t have rashly shot arrows at the Bone Dragon, thus escalating the situation to what it was now.
Fang Hao did not say much.
He came here for the map.
Even if the spider archers hadn’t shot those arrows, this battle could not have been avoided.
Moving his gaze away from the ‘mummies’ on the old tree, Fang Hao continued to follow Domina into the camp.
Traces of death remained around the camp.
Yet, the sight in front of them was still spectacular.
White spider webs covered the entire camp, like suspension bridges linking all the different-sized spider nests together.
The arrangement was neat and orderly, giving an aesthetic close to that of postmodern architecture.
“This place is beautiful,” Fang Hao commented.
Domina did not respond and continued to lead the group forward.
At the center of the camp was a house made of spider silk and wood, suspended in the air by white spider webs.
Judging by its size, this should be the leader’s hall.
The group treaded on the path woven by spider webs and entered the house.
The house was sturdy and didn’t sway as imagined.
There were no chairs.
Domina just lowered her enormous body to the ground, her gaze toward Fang Hao and his companions.
“Enough, you’ve seen this place, nowit’s time you explained what you want,” Domina said coldly.
“Domina, you should understand your situation. A bit of basic respect will make things easier for you and your kin,” Fang Hao reminded lightly.
Domina’s attitude likely had to do with her low loyalty rating.
But, Fang Hao felt he should remind her to recognize her situation.
Being called by a proper title was a minor matter, but if she were to disobey his orders in the future or attempt some artifices, Fang Hao wouldn’t hesitate to kill her.
Then he’d transform her into an obedient undead to continue working for him. “Then, what should I call you?” Domina’s expression changed subtly.
“Sir or, Lord would defuse our relationship considerably.”
“Alright, my lord. Now that you’ve seen my place, could you tell me what you want us to do?” Domina said.
She used honorifics, but her tone remained indifferent.
“Nothing much, I plan to develop a mine to the south and I’ll need your assistance,” Fang Hao leaned leisurely back against the spider-silk wall, which didn’t stick to him.
“Develop a mine? Where is it?” Domina expressed her surprise.
“The mine does exist. I can show it to you then. Will your kin be capable of developing it?” Fang Hao looked at Domina.
The spider swarm was somewhat similar to Fang Hao’s undead.
Both had rapid methods of producing troops to gain an advantage.
The difference was that the undead transformed Skeletons, while spiders relied on their mothers to reproduce.
Upon hearing Fang Hao’s words, Domina furrowed her brows.
She turned to look at her own massive spider body and said, “You want us to mine ore? That kind of work isn’t suitable for us to do.”
