Chapter 754 Aella Vs Mother Spider.
CRACKLE! In the blink of an eye, the mother spider ran all the way toward Aella and swung her front leg down. Aella blocked the attack with her bow, staring at the spider's face as her feet dug into the ground.
"You're stronger than you look." The mother spider smiled.
While still blocking the mother spider's leg with her bow, she quickly pulled the string and released an arrow toward the spider's face.
The mother spider dodged the arrow by tilting her torso. ^Elemental arrows, straight from her bow.^
"Fool, you'll only hit the humans above." The mother spider swung another leg at Aella's torso.
STAB! Before she could fully swing her leg, an arrow pierced her torso from the back. She growled, "What!"
Aella's arrows are made of wind, and she can control them at will. They don't need to fly in a straight line. She then quickly swung her palm, sending a powerful blast of air that flung them both in opposite directions.
CRACK! As the mother spider hit the wall, she gasped, looking forward as the wound in her torso quickly healed. From the dust where Aella landed, several tens of wind arrows flew forth.
The mother spider conjured a large web, blocking all the arrows as she rushed forward at a blinding speed. Even when small, spiders are known to be fast. With the queen's size and the monstrous composition of her body, that speed only got scaled up, resulting in a massive, fast bug that could run faster than any animal.
Aella jumped up as the mother spider charged at her, letting her hit the wall head-first. She flew up beside the wall firing arrows, escaping the spider's constant leg stabs as she ran after her on the wall.
Seeing that the mother spider could still tank and block her arrows, Aella flew into the center of the room, firing as the spider still standing on the wall.
The mother spider twisted her gigantic butt, firing a long silver threat to the ceiling, and used it to swing straight toward Aella. Seeing such a large creature almost the size of a bull with long legs swing around was honestly mesmerizing.
"So you can fly, elf!" The mother spider growled, coming in with a bite at Aella's face.
Aella dodged mid-air by twisting her torso and kicked the spider in the face, firing an arrow at her chest.
The mother spider swung one of her legs, and smacked Aella's bow from her hand as the two of them finally landed on the ground. "Bowless, now die!" She unleashed a barrage of stabs with her legs, but surprisingly, Aella wasn't fazed, slapping the mother's legs with her bare hands.
Most people make the mistake of underestimating archers' arm strength, pulling bows requires a lot of power, let alone magical and steel weapons made by a certain woman. But even though the mother spider was swinging at Aella with four legs, she wasn't getting through her defenses. The reason was simple, while fighting Arad in the training, he felt as if he had six arms. With the speed and raw strength behind his attacks, one wrong move got Aella smacked down, so she learned how to deal with multiple attacks.
"You're skilled." The mother spider growled.
^I knew it. That blue glow in her eyes, she's becoming able to see mana. This means this dungeon should at least be an S-
rank to have such a boss.^
CRACK! A stone smacked the mother spider in the face, causing her to trip and slide on the ground. "Who threw that?!" She growled, looking for the other girls, but they were all knocked out.
Aella stared down at her with an evil smile, pointing her finger and several more stones started to smack the queen left and right. Just as strong wind can pick stones and throw them around, Aella could do the same.
The mother spider jumped back, creating a new between her two front legs, and caught all the stones Aella was flinging at her, rolled them into one massive ball, and swung it at Aella with a thread like a wrecking ball.
Aella swung her palm, cutting the tread with a [Wind Blade], and then started lifting her palms. The mother spider lunged forward as Aella's moves didn't seem like an attack, trying to bite her face off. And as she was a tiny bit away from chomping Aella's face off, it happened.
With her hands together like a cone, she unleashed it.
[Wind Expansion: Roaring Tornado]
Aella's expansion covered the whole room and pulled the mother spider in the middle, where she started spinning in its center while bombarded with an endless stream of stones, debris, wind arrows, slashes, and blasts.
The mother spider cried, covering her body in a cocoon of threads to withstand the attacks. After a few seconds, the wind started slowing down and the spider felt it. She slowly opened her cocoon to look at Aella, "You're running out of mana..." at that time, she almost shat herself, seeing Aella menacingly standing at the corner of the room, with a blazing arrow in her bow.
"Burn." Aella said, releasing the arrow. It flew straight into the gape the mother spider made in her cocoon to look at Aella, exploded it from the inside out, and ignited the tornado into a blaze of fire. A fire tornado illuminated the whole room.
As the fire settled down, Aella approached the mother spider's charred corpse, and stared at it for a second. "No magic, she's finally dead."
After confirming that, she pulled several healing potions and was about to rush toward the girls.
CRACK! A hand extended from mother's burned corpse and punched Aella in the back of her head, sending her sliding on the ground, digging a trench with her face.
From the mother's charred body, a pale naked woman walked out. She was tall and slender, with eight green eyes on her face, long white hair, black long nails and webbing dripping from her butt.
"That was painful. I never knew that fire hurt that much." The mother spider growled, now standing in her final form, taking a full humanoid shape.
CRACK! But at that moment, a large hand emerged from the ground and grabbed her by the ankle.Updated from n0v3lb(i)n.c(o)/m
