Chapter 1236: Desperate Situation! A Heart of Devotion!
......
The eight-eyed spider is just a servant of the wizard.
A manifestation of some kind of energy.
In essence, it is not a living creature at all.
More like a killing machine that strictly follows the rules.
The primary target was not completely killed, and the eight-eyed spider directly expelled Li Yao from its stomach.
Li Yao had no room to resist due to the powerful squeezing force.
The vision becomes clear again.
Use fire energy to burn the disgusting mucus on your body.
Look at the dozens of contestants still struggling on the spider web.
"It really takes some skill to dare to stay in the central area." Li Yao couldn't help but sigh.
It's a spider web of the same size as the one just mentioned.
It can capture at least hundreds of contestants.
In other words.
At least half of the strong men within the range avoided the spider web attack.
Li Yao drew his sword.
Just wanted to chop off these guys' heads.
A silver thread came into view.
"You know you can't kill him, but you want to control him?"
"The 'program' is changing randomly? Is there someone controlling it?"
"wizard?"
Countless questions flashed through my mind.
【Shackles】Link to Khazker.
Li Yao entered a hidden state and then slashed out with a sword.
The sword swept across.
The moment I touched the spider silk, I felt a dull sensation of cutting cotton, unable to exert any strength.
The spider silk split into two and continued to attack.
[Void Leap]
Li Yao moved some distance back.
There are no laws of space.
It takes a certain amount of time to tear open space with bare hands.
For short-distance movement, you can only rely on these displacement skills.
But the speed of spider silk is too fast.
And there is more than one.
Countless silk threads are entangled in all directions.
【Death Star】
At the critical moment, Li Yao escaped into the void.
The spider silk wraps around to form a cocoon.
He drew his sword and slashed it horizontally, turning the spider webs and cocoons into pieces all over the sky.
"Some underestimated this guy's offensive ability."
Li Yao's face darkened.
Rely on the duration of [Death Star] to create a considerable distance.
The eight-eyed spider completely ignored the contestants who were tied to the web and unable to fight back, and chased Li Yao directly.
......
We planned to host a live event featuring 3D idols on a video site, but the problem was funding. We didn't even have anyone who could imagine the idols' true appearances, so we had to turn to online illustrators. To make the images move in the video, they had to be virtualized. So, we had to hire professionals.
Even if we let Miiko act as the voice actor for the 3D idol, it would cost an unimaginable amount of money for a high school student. Even if we squeeze the budget to the limit, it would still cost more than or . It might seem cheap to rich people, but our club doesn't have much funding and can't afford it.
The school would not give funding to a club that had no achievements. Just when we were hesitating whether to send a bomb threat to the school to ask for money, good news came.
An acquaintance of the club president was very interested in this project. He might be able to provide us with funds, so Miiko and I decided to visit that person's home. By the way, the reason why the president was away was because he failed many subjects and was kept after school to make up for it.
"Okay, we're almost there! Look, that house over there! The one with the Japanese gate! Yes, that's the landmark."
I confirmed where she pointed and nodded. It was just as the minister had told us. The pine and persimmon trees that stretched out from the courtyard were a perfect example of Japanese style.
"Such a luxurious house...will there be a dry landscape garden inside..."
"It's possible! Let's go!"
She probably only wanted to get the money. She asked me to take the introduction materials, but she walked into the yard quickly by herself. She saw that the gate was open and rushed in without caring whether there was a doorbell.
It would be terrible if there was a ferocious dog that would attack people without its owner watching. I thought about this and hurried towards the gate.
"ah!"
Just then, I heard a scream. I was shocked and rushed through the door.
"Miiko!"
Had she been attacked by a ferocious dog and become a victim of its teeth? The thought of a wound on her fair and tender skin filled me with uneasiness.
I was worried about her.
Miiko was being harassed by a slightly yellow Labrador Retriever. The dog licked Miiko's face with its tongue. Miiko put her head on the ground and giggled.
"Oh! It's so itchy! Hey, Glacier! This dog seems to be very friendly!"
"You're playing a trick on me again, I..."
"I didn't mean to tease you this time! Because the dog suddenly pounced on me."
"Yes, yes...Is that so? It's not on a leash either, so it seems to be true."
"Really? Huh?"
When Miiko said "Eh," I also felt a strong sense of disharmony. Somehow, I felt a strange feeling of discomfort in my heart.
What's going on? I felt uneasy. An indescribable panic. Suddenly, an image of an old man reaching out his hand feebly emerged in my mind.
I wanted to quickly eliminate this strange feeling, so I asked her the reason for this disharmony.
"The door is open...that door."
"And the dog wasn't on a leash, was it? Eh, eh?"
"Is this dog... trained?"
I tried to come up with my own ideas, but the fog in my mind wouldn't clear. Miiko stroked the dog's chin while explaining a situation that couldn't be explained by training.
"First of all, the first point. Maybe you don't know, but Labradors have the habits of hunting dogs. When they see something they are interested in, they can't help but chase it. If they are trained to be guide dogs, they usually won't run away from home casually, but this dog is obviously not one of them. This is easy to see."
After listening to her explanation, I finally got rid of that feeling of disharmony.
"Well, the second point is the dog's own personality, right? If it was a guide dog, it wouldn't have pounced like that. This dog would definitely pounce when it saw someone on the road."
"That is to say," I just said this, and a bad premonition came over me again. A chill down my spine.
I hope that won't be the result. I prayed while thinking carefully about Miiko's words.
"So it's not normal for the door to be open."
"Then, then a visitor came and opened the door and went out... and the door was left open like that... T-That's possible, right? Right, Miiko...?"
I raised my objection. I hoped she would say, "Yeah. If a visitor opened the door and left, that would make sense." If she rejected my idea...
This is the only possibility in my past experience.
"There's no way out. Maybe someone has collapsed inside."
"But, but, aren't there always stories like that? It's about a dog that finds its owner collapsed and goes to ask for help. If something serious happened, the dog should behave even more strangely..."
"That's just a plot in a TV show!"
"...I know! Let's go!"
There's no way this could happen.
The owner inside had collapsed. This shouldn't have happened. To confirm the truth, I opened the door. It was not locked!
Is this why I can't see the visitor off... No... That's absolutely impossible.
The more I shouted in my heart, the stronger the uneasy factor became. I suddenly remembered the minister's words.
"Oh, right. I heard that the old man collapsed once because of a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Don't make him angry... Since I'm not the one going, I won't tell you anything, okay?"
There was a reason. A reason for people to fall down and lose important things.
