Chapter 87: The Ruins Address

"Little Black, come back!" Vicky was on the verge of tears.

Little Black, who was entangled with the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders, also let out a series of howls.

Cold light flashed in Irving's eyes, and he gritted his teeth, preparing to rush up. Even if he had to risk his life, he was determined to rescue Little Black. But at this moment, something both surprising and delightful happened.

Little Black suddenly shook its body, and the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders clinging to it fell off one by one. The air was filled with the smell of something burning...

At this moment, Irving seemed to understand, murmuring, "It seems that these Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders are not immune to fire. Their shells are just too hard, and a simple Fireball is not enough to break their defenses."

As a Hellhound, Little Black was surrounded by a persistent purple flame. Even if the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders had extremely strong shells, once they were touched by the flame, they would continue to burn.

The Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders seemed to realize that Little Black was not easy to deal with. Surprisingly, they bypassed Little Black and charged directly towards Irving and Vicky.

"Irving, what should we do?" Vicky asked anxiously.

Being a healer mage, the only thing she could do was stick closely behind Irving.

Irving's worried look gradually disappeared, and a smile spread across his face. He had a plan in mind, yelling at Little Black, "Come back quickly."

Hearing its master's call, Little Black quickly shook off the several Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders around it and wagged its tail as it returned to Irving's side.

Since the purple flame on Little Black could ignore the hard shells of the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders, why not take advantage of this? Why not attach the purple flame to a fireball?

Time was running out...

Irving waved his wand, quickly condensing a fireball. Little Black, as if understanding its master's thoughts, immediately transferred its purple flame to the fireball.

The next moment.

A purple fireball was thrown at the charging Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders.

Boom!

A muffled explosion sounded as the purple fireball exploded upon contact with the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders.

Although the huge impact was once again blocked by their hard shells, the sparks from the explosion successfully attached to their bodies.

Sizzle... The Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders that had rushed up felt the purple flame continuously burning them, and they rolled on the ground in pain, making a harsh noise.

However, the more they struggled, the faster the purple flame spread on their bodies. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Ten minutes later.

A large scorch mark appeared on the green grass. Dozens of Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders lay motionless. Some were already burned to death by the purple flame, while others were still struggling in pain.

As long as the purple flame wasn't extinguished, they wouldn't last long.

Irving gently stroked Little Black's fluffy head, then shifted his deep gaze to the massive [Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen]not far away.

The[Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen]trailed a sac behind her, from which a yellowish liquid continuously oozed. Upon closer inspection, one could see that in just the last ten minutes, seven or eight Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider hatchlings had crawled out of the sac.

However, they were merely juveniles.

"How disgusting." Vicky said, turning her head away, unable to bear the sight.

However, a broader smile appeared on Irving's face, as if he found the scene quite intriguing.

Human nature is immutable: women always have an inherent fear of crawling creatures, but as a man, Irving was more driven by curiosity about the unknown.

Irving's attention was fully focused on the newly hatched Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider offspring.

Although the battle had ended, it made him realize the biggest flaw of being a necromancer—he always needed a group of exotic beasts with him.

Relying solely on his [Fireball] skill would become increasingly ineffective in harsher battles.

"Little Black, show it who's boss like last time," Irving said with a smile, then added, "But don't kill it. It's still of great use."

Little Black wagged its tail and gallantly approached the[Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen].

Although the[Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen] was a high-rank low-tier creature, far surpassing the exotic beasts Irving had encountered before, its combat prowess wasn't significantly different from the ordinary Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider.

Dragging its large sac, it moved even more sluggishly. Without its brood guards, it posed no real threat.

Moments later, the [Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen] was engulfed in purple flames. It realized that Irving was different from the other players who had entered the forest.

Watching its newly hatched offspring burn to death, it let out a piercing shriek.

"Surrender or die. Those are your only choices." Irving said coldly, his eyes fixed on the [Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen]. His wand began to emit a dazzling light.

Most exotic beasts feared death just like humans, especially the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen. If it died, all the unborn hatchlings in its sac would perish as well.

[Player has successfully enslaved the "Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen"!]

A crisp notification sound came through.

Detailed information about the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen then appeared before Irving.

[Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen]

[Level: High-rank low-tier]

[Description: Massive in size, several times larger than an ordinary spider. Her body is covered with a smooth and hard carapace...]

[Skill Descriptions:]

[1. Control the Brood: The queen possesses powerful mental strength, enabling her to communicate telepathically with her offspring.]

[2. Reproduction Ability: The queen can rapidly produce numerous offspring and can transfer her power and spirit to the next generation through special rituals.]

[3. Corrosive Venom: The queen has mastered unique skills. She can release a special venom that not only has neuroparalytic properties but also strong corrosiveness, causing those hit by it to fall into a paralyzed state. Note: In emergencies, she can also spit out extremely sticky webbing, which is incredibly tough and can serve as her lifeline in critical moments.]

Seeing these skills, Irving couldn't help but reveal a satisfied expression.

The ability to control the brood and the powerful reproductive capability!

This is why the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen, despite not being as strong in combat as the ordinary Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider, could still reach the level of a high-tier exotic beast.

"With this Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen, I'll have an endless supply of exotic beasts at my disposal, saving me a lot of effort." Irving thought to himself.

The most crucial aspect was that by enslaving the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen, her "subjects" would also be completely obedient to Irving.

Soon, Irving ordered Little Black to extinguish the purple flames on the remaining Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders and then had Vicky use[Healing Art] to heal them.

As for the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders that had been burned to death, they had dropped quite a bit of equipment—23 high-grade pieces and 10 rare pieces in total.

The quality and drop rate of the equipment were far superior to what could be found outside.

This was not only due to the unique bonuses of the secret realm but also directly related to Irving's talent,[Tenfold Drop Rate].

After lingering on the meadow outside the secret realm for about ten minutes, Irving finally led Vicky into the forest. Trailing behind him, apart from Little Black, were over a dozen Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders.

The dense foliage of the forest greatly reduced visibility.

"No wonder that initial squad we encountered got wiped out within minutes of entering here..." Vicky said, glancing around at the eerie surroundings, as if understanding something.

In such a dark environment, being suddenly swarmed by a horde of Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders would be overwhelming for even the strongest warriors.

The two continued to walk through the forest for a long time without encountering any exotic beast attacks, allowing Vicky to relax a bit.

"It must be related to the Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider Queen." Irving speculated, looking back. "This forest is likely filled with various Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spider clans."

"They probably think we've already become prey for their clan, so they haven't attacked us..."

As they continued through the forest, they could see the volcano they had spotted earlier growing closer. The red glow emanating from the summit was actually the mouth of the lava flow.

This volcano was only in a dormant stage.

"Irving, it looks like we're about to leave the forest." Vicky said excitedly, seeing the light ahead. "I wonder if we'll be the first to reach the foot of the volcano."

In the secret realm, only one player was eligible to obtain the hidden treasure chest. As a limited-time area opened by the Blue Star Will, the rewards were highly anticipated.

Irving smiled without saying anything.

Although those Poisonous Fang Paralyzed Spiders posed a significant threat to most players, there were also powerful players or guilds in the Other World.

The competition for the "treasure chest" would undoubtedly lead to intense battles!

Just as they were about to exit the forest, a few figures suddenly darted out from the woods nearby, followed by desperate cries for help.
