Chapter 240: Web weaver


On the fifth day after Barak proposed to cross the Dibia Mountains, it was still snowing heavily, and a mountaineering team consisting of more than 700 asylum seekers and more than 100 hunters came out of this deep mountain village. Go deeper into the mountains.
Originally, Barak planned to set off immediately the next day he proposed, and over the mountain range, but what happened was a sudden snowstorm on the mountain, and it was four days at a time, so the plan had to be pushed back.
During these four days, the number of asylum-seekers who ran to the Orion village in the deep mountains increased by more than 300 people for various reasons. This number of people has exceeded the tolerance limit of the surrounding villages and also affected the calm and safety of the village. There have been more than a dozen disputes in a few days, and then continue to asylum seekers and hunters in the village will inevitably have more serious armed conflicts.
If it was before, there was an armed conflict with these asylum seekers, Barak was not afraid, because most of these asylum seekers are ordinary people, and they are not opponents of the mountain hunters. But the more than three hundred people who suddenly rushed into the village these days, most of them are powerful and powerful men of Kong Wu. Judging from their expressions and the weapons they wear, they must be a gangster with blood on their hands. Once a conflict occurs, even if it finally wins because of geographical advantages, I am afraid it will be a terrible victory.
However, none of this is what Barak worried about. What really made Barak worried was the Milia City Plague among the people who had taken refuge in the mountains in the past few days.
According to the news provided by the asylum seekers, Barak knew that the plague was first caused by the French army. In just a few days, the refugee camps in the city of Domilia were quickly spread. Although it has not spread to Dibby, Sub-mountain regions, but according to the spread rate of the plague, it will be spread to this area sooner or later.
Feeling that the crisis was coming, Barak decided not to wait for the blizzard to stop completely. After finding that the blizzard had begun to weaken, he decided to leave and take the people out of the village, cross over to the opposite side of the mountain, find a suitable settlement over there, and then return to the village All the people here took it, avoiding the Great Plague.
Although it is a very difficult thing for those asylum-seekers who have lived in the city for many years to brave the wind and snow, but no one has proposed to stay, and all those who can act are notified as soon as possible after they are notified. Packed the pack and waited for departure.
If there is no plague, in the face of such a snowstorm, some people may still worry about the dangers encountered by mountaineering and choose to stay. But when the news of the great plague in Miria City spread among the crowd, the already legendary horror event immediately appeared in all the hot minds, leaving everyone in an unprecedented panic. Now there is a chance to leave this place of death. For those who are extremely scared, even if they will encounter unimaginable dangers on the way, it is much better than staying here and waiting for death.
However, among these asylum seekers, at least more than 100 people fled into the mountain village because of the last two days. The tools and supplies needed to cross the mountains are not fully prepared, especially the items for cold protection are almost They had been divided by other asylum seekers before they came here. This makes the thermal insulation items of more than one hundred people inadequate. Most people can only buy a few pieces of finished animal skins from some hunters at high prices, and weave them into a coat to resist the outside. The cold of the snow.
However, several of these asylum-seekers were very prominently dressed. They did not wear the animal skin warm clothing, but always wore unsuitable city clothes, even after walking on the road, even for snow The snowshoes on the ground were not worn, so they followed the large team slowly.
At the beginning, some people noticed these strange people who seemed to be looking for their own way of death, but as they moved away from the village road and began to enter the mountains, everyone no longer dared to distract from other things, but focused on their feet. Road, because there were just a few unlucky eggs that didn’t pay attention to the road underneath.
However, compared to other people, the few weirdos who walked at the end looked at each other with interest, and were more guarded against each other.
Leo is among these weirdos, but compared to the quirky suits of those weirdos who seemed to attend a funeral, his old windbreaker dressed as a scavenger looks much more normal.
As early as two days ago, Leo had arrived in the village where Barak was located. Originally, he did not intend to go with the evacuees through the secret roads found by Barak’s ancestors. Instead, he planned to cross Dibia directly and alone. Mountains, after all, for him, even if there is no psionic power, it is not difficult to cross the Dibia mountains.
What made him change his mind was the gowns who were being looked at by him now, because when these geeks appeared, he felt a strong divine power overwhelming the entire village and all the villages. people.
When the spiritual energy disappears, under his gaze, all the people in the village, whether they are asylum seekers or residents of the village, the appearance of most people has completely changed into a shape. Live dead bodies with various fatal injuries.
At the same time, the images of these geeks in dresses also changed completely in the sight, the original clear features became blurred, like a melted oil painting, and the hands and feet also became several times longer, looking a bit like Humanoid spider.
At the same time that Leo discovered the anomalies of these people, those people also found Leo's anomaly. Although they were a little surprised that the magical spirit that landed on Leo could be dispelled, they did not pay too much attention. There was no strong hostility towards Leo, only Leo was regarded as a vigilant surprise.
The obvious characteristics of these weirdos revealed under the sight of the eye made Leo soon think of a legendary web weaver.
In the Velen world, the belief in death has always existed, but it has never developed into a very formal religion. Most of them are only in a folk belief in cities and villages around the world. The gods of death they believe in are all different. For example, there are many tribes in the primitive forest of Mosang mainland who regard the pythons and crocodiles inhabiting them as the incarnation of the of death. For example, some villages in the Inge kingdom believe in a giant stone. It is said that this giant stone brought away countless gods from the sky one day.
It's just that no matter how different the beliefs of the gods of death are in different parts of the world, they are the same as the servants who help the reaper to reap his life. They have a common name for the net weaver.
Whether the web weaver really exists has always been a question. Even the Orthodox Court, who knows the most about the various deities, cannot fully confirm it, but all people who claim to have seen the web weaver use the same image without exception. Describe web weavers, which grow to outrageous limbs, look like spiders, etc.
In all the legends about web weavers, their appearance represents the arrival of death, so there are some legends that as long as the web weavers can be imprisoned, they can avoid death.
For those who say that Leo does not completely believe it, but after seeing these suspicious weavers in dresses, Leo feels that the statement that the appearance of the weaver will bring death may be true, and this In other words, these asylum seekers and residents of those villages will die.
Although Leo is not that kind of bad guy, but with the change of his mind, he is also affected by the original kindness of the body. If he meets those who are about to die, he is also capable of helping without compromising his own safety. He may also help.
But now, although so many people might die in front of his eyes, he can do nothing but be an observer on the side, because the web weavers are very mysterious in his eyes, and he also instinctively follows These net weavers felt a strong danger.
Except for the huge divine psionic energy that first appeared from the sky and covered a dozen miles of mountains, Leo never felt any kind of psionic energy from these people. His spiritual network did not even feel To the existence of these net weavers, it seems that these net weavers are air.
In this way, Leo and these suspicious web weavers' dress geeks followed the entire mountain-turning team. It took almost two hours to cross the mountain where the Orion village is located, and over the mountain, it was A valley full of gravel, from the surrounding terrain, the gravel in the valley should come from the surrounding mountains.
However, at the moment of entering the gravel valley, Leo felt a slight shaking of the ground. This vibration is very weak, and the normal person can't feel it at all, but Leo, who has always been concentrated, was aware of it when the vibration appeared, and even found the mountain that the vibration came over before the vibration.
"Avalanche!" Leo looked back and looked back. Although the snow on the mountain in his eyes did not appear abnormal, but through the hyperopia effect in the spiritual vision skills, he saw a layer of blizzard across the mountain. The situation like a sea wave rushed into the sky, which made him quickly think of a natural disaster such as an avalanche.
Moreover, the scale of the avalanche is probably very large, affecting all the slopes of the opposite mountain. In this way, the snow of the avalanche is likely to advance to the Orion villages on the mountainside, and the people living in those villages are affected by this natural disaster. Next, I am afraid it is difficult to survive.
Almost at the same time that Leo judged that a huge avalanche disaster had occurred on the other side of the mountain, the divine spirit that he felt before could emerge from the net weavers again, so that Leo could not help facing those people. Read the past.
I saw in the sight, this time not only did the web weavers change, but even a trace of spider webs could be seen by the sight, and these spider webs all reached without exception. Underground, it was pulled out like fishing, and the other end of the spider silk dragged a fuzzy figure, and the spider silk entered the back of the web weaver's back. in.
Leo did not disguise his observation behavior. The web weavers easily discovered Leo's move, and his face was a little surprised, but also showed no repulsion and hostility. One of the oldest net weavers withdrew all the nets, walked towards Leo, and followed Leo's unexpected sight, pulled out a black glass spherical object from his pocket and handed it to him. Leo, while the other hand, leaned his fingers against his lips, making a gesture of not speaking.
Leo looked at the black glass ball handed over by the net weaver, and then at the expressionless net weaver. He knew that his decision represented the danger he might encounter next, as well as the future The network weavers and their enemies and friends in the journey.
Faced with the choice, Leo just thought about it and took the black glass ball in the hands of the net weaver. The other party was obviously very satisfied with Leo’s choice and smiled on his face. This kind of smile looked extravagant under his mouth full of sharp teeth.
Although Leo has reached an agreement with these mysterious web weavers of unknown strength, he will not intervene in the death of these people, but he did not leave this, but continued to stay beside these web weavers through Lingshi and Spirit Net observes their situation.
As for the web weavers, it seems that as long as Leo does not intervene in the work of collecting the souls of the dead, they will not care about the other party’s observations and actions, and even the spiritual web will fall on them and penetrate into them, and they will not be taken back. Thing, because they knew that Leo could not find anything from them.
"There is no divine power, no trace of evolution, and it is exactly the same as ordinary people..." Leo quickly made an analysis after accepting various feedback messages from the spiritual network. The more data the analysis obtained, the more Puzzled him.
He can clearly feel the soul-enhancement network formed by the divine power~EbookFREE.me~ and can clearly see that the black shadows of the soul should disappear in the black hole in the back, but there is a kind of what he sees. Everything you see is an illusion of illusion, the only truth is the black glass ball handed to him by the web weaver just now.
Through the touch of the finger skin, Leo can easily judge that this is a glass ball, and the spiritual net can also analyze the composition of this glass ball, but the spiritual perception that has been integrated into his spiritual instinct feels that this is a An insect egg, or more correctly a spider egg.
Leo took this glass ball in front of his eyes and carefully squeezed it again, feeling the hardness of it, and did not find any abnormalities in it. After that, he tried to inject psionic energy into the glass ball again, and nothing changed.
Until Leo began to use the power of the nightmare and began to imitate the magical power he felt, the black on the surface of the glass ball quickly faded, a black spider appeared in the glass ball, and then the glass ball shattered instantly, the spider It fell on Leo's right palm, and penetrated into the twin gloves before Leo responded. When Leo took off his gloves, he found that the black spider had merged into the back of his right hand and turned into a tattoo-like pattern, and at this moment his vision changed.
