Chapter 140 Entering the Spider Queen’s Den

Looking at the sudden system notification, Leo became anxious because he didn’t expect his five minutes of staying inside the secret dimensional space was already over.

‘Damn it…the purple-striped water spider didn’t agree to the deal. Is it really not worried about the Heir?’

Leo frowned, and he couldn’t believe that the purple-striped water spider didn’t care about the Heir anymore.

‘Wait a second…if he really didn’t care, why would they bother to kidnap it in the first place, unless….’

‘Swoosh’

Amid his thinking, Leo felt a huge suction force pulling him out of the secret dimensional space.

[Heavenly Flaming Lion Transformation]

Leo knew he could not win against such a powerful suction force and could not stay in the secret dimensional space anymore unless he went out once.

“Roar”

Soon, Leo transformed into less than a half-a-meter lion and roared at the purple-striped water spider.

Since his talent [Heavenly Flaming Lion Transformation] was only at level 4, he was a little bigger than the lion cub; however, he was sure that the purple-striped water spider would not doubt it.

‘Stop’

The moment Leo came out as a Heavenly flaming lion, the eight blades rushed toward him with an intent to kill him.

However, the purple-striped water spider stopped the blades because the spider mother ordered him to take care of the lion cub as it was their ticket to stay alive if they failed to exterminate the Flaming lions.

‘He will think the cub might be using some enhancement talent.’

This was the thought in Leo’s head as he spoke, “Are you sure you want to kill me, the Heir of the Flaming Lion Race?”

‘Swoosh’

However, the purple-striped water spider didn’t bother to reply; instead, he shot white-coloured spider silk that wrapped around the heavenly flaming lion.

“I will kill you after the Mother returns.”

Looking at the flaming lion that was completely wrapped in the spider silk, the purple-striped water spider scoffed.

‘Looks like he must have escaped already.’

After taking care of the flaming lion, the purple-striped water spider looked at the place where its eight blades hovered earlier and twitched its jaws.

Once the purple-striped water spider cancels its attack, it must leave its scent on the target again. Moreover, it needed some time to recover its energy before using its ultimate attack again.

‘Kacha’

Soon, the eight blade-like legs of the purple-striped water spider attached to its body, and it could finally move.

“Everyone, there is no need to search for him. Even if you find him, you are out of his league as he could kill you easily.”

After fighting with Leo for a few minutes, the purple-striped water spider learned that he could even threaten the normal level 1 supreme-ranked water spiders, not to mention the rank 9 water spiders that Leo could easily kill.

So, it didn’t want to sacrifice its minions unnecessarily.

“Yes, Captain.”

All the rank 9 water spiders nodded before leaving from there.

“This human is trying to take away the cub. It is no longer safe to cage it in the normal den.”

Once it found out that Leo had already escaped and it had no way to find out in which corner he was hiding, the purple-striped water spider stopped thinking about him.

Instead, it looked at the one-meter flaming lion fully wrapped in the white spider silk and decided to cage it in some secure location.

‘The only secure place in the entire ‘Abandoned sea’ is Mother’s Den.’

Soon, its eight eyes looked at the huge multi-coloured den in the distance and silently thought in its head.

The mother den is where the spider queen rests, and it has a powerful formation that could even make it impossible for the level 5 supreme ranked beings to enter, much less a rank 9 human hero.

Therefore, it decided to throw the Flaming lion heir until the spider mother and others return from the war against the Flaming Lion Race.

‘However, why does it look different from when I first captured it?’

While moving towards the spider queen’s den, the purple-striped water spider thought about the lion cub’s appearance.

The differences between the transformed Leo and the lion cub were apparent because Leo transformed into Heavenly Flaming Lion and not into a normal Flaming Lion.

So, it looked more majestic than the flaming lion cub.

‘Looks like the growth of the Heir is much faster than I thought.’

The purple-striped water spider didn’t think much about it because there was only one lion heir in the Beastnet, and he was sure that the one he captured right now was the Heir of the Flaming Lion Race.

‘Where is he taking me to?’

As for Leo, he didn’t make any surprise attacks on the purple-striped water spider anymore because he knew it was useless against it.

Moreover, he was curious about the place where the water spider was taking him to. So, he decided to wait and see.

‘Open’

Soon, they reached a huge water den with multiple colours, and he saw the purple-striped water spider put four of its sharp legs in the four holes in the huge door.’

‘Swoosh’

In the next second, the huge doors opened as the purple-striped water spider entered it.

“I think it is better to cage him in the left mother’s room.”

After walking for a few minutes, there were two huge doors.

Seeing those two doors, the purple-striped water spider thought for a moment before selecting the left one and opening it.

‘What is this place?’

Leo observed everything around him with a curious look.

“You are not allowed to see the insides of the mother’s halls.”

While saying that, the spider released more spider silk to turn Leo into a mummy.

“Stay here.”

After that, it threw Leo, who was in the heavenly flaming lion form, on the ground and closed the huge doors before leaving it.

‘Fire claw’

As soon as the water spider left, Leo transformed back into a human before coming out of spider silk.

“Th..these are….”

Leo was shocked at the things he had seen in the hall.
