Evolution From the Big Tree

*Grrrr..* Another growl, bearing more fury than before, resounded across the forest.

The next moment…

With a thunderous roar, a silver-white bolt of lightning as thick as a water bucket illuminated the entire world of web.

It was extremely scorching, hot enough to melt everything.

In an instant, the spider webs were burned black.

And at this moment, with a thunderous boom, Honey Badger, previously ensnared in the spiderweb, closed in on the Spider Queen.

Furthermore, its sharp claws happened to be protracted, with bolts of lightning continuing to converge between his sharp claws.

It looked as if he was holding lightning in his claws. It was a terrifying sight. 

*Boom!* Accompanied by a deafening clap, the impenetrable spiderweb collided with the silver-white lightning.

However, at this moment…

*Whirr, whirr…* The air suddenly started vibrating uncontrollably as the wings as delicate as cicada wings fluttered. The next moment, a cold gleam flickered in the eyes of Green Mantis before his sickle-like arms shot imperceptible wind blades. 

*Screech…* With a sharp cry, the Green Mantis turned into a streak of light and disappeared all of a sudden.

*Zhi, zhi, zhi!!!* The next moment, the Spider Queen let out mournful cries as a deep, gaping wound appeared on its abdomen.

And at this moment, deafening crackling sounds reverberated through the forest, sounding much like cries of a thousand birds, as a silver-white bolt of lightning as thick as water bucket struck the Spider Queen.

*Boom!* Accompanied by a deafening clap, the entire earth trembled uncontrollably. At the same time, the colossal body of the Spider Queen was sent flying.

Without saying a word, Green Mantis and Honey Badger exchanged a glance before charging at the Spider Queen in unison.

Mutant Beasts possessed formidable life force. Especially powerful Mutant Beasts like the Mutant Spider. They needed to at least inflict severe injuries, if not kill it. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened, there would be no time for regrets.

Bit by bit, time passed, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour had gone by. During this half-hour, the entire ancient forest seemed to be experiencing an earthquake; the ground kept quaking incessantly. Even more frightening was that numerous towering trees had fallen, cut in a very clean manner, revealing smooth, mirror-like surfaces.

Of course, roars and growls filled with fury continued to intensify.

Until…

*Chi!* With a desperate and agonizing cry, the Spider Queen, that was of the average height of a Human, could no longer hold on.

With a splash, it fell into a pool of blood. 

The Mutant Spider Queen was indeed formidable. Since it was Tier-0 Level 8, its web was exceptionally tricky to deal with.

Even though Honey Badger’s lightning could counter it to some extent, it was still a formidable opponent.

However, no matter how strong it was, the Mutant Spider Queen could not stand the sneak attacks of a terrifying assassin.

Green Mantis was extremely swift and fast, and his attacks sharp and lethal. At times, he silently blended into the environment, waiting for the Spider Queen to attack Honey Badger before delivering a swift and thunderous strike.

This was not just about the Spider Queen; even if it were another Mutant Beast, it would not be able to endure.

It was all due to the fact that Mutant Beasts that usually fight alone had now started to cooperate in battle.

This left a lasting shadow on the Spider Queen that it would remember for a lifetime.

…

By the time they returned to North Canyon, it was already late at night.

Yu Zi Yu stared blankly at Honey Badger, who was holding a giant spider not far away, astonished for a moment.

The next moment…

*Grrr, grrr, grrr…* After listening to Honey Badger’s growls, Yu Zi Yu roughly understood the situation.

Apparently, this Mutant Spider had suffered severe injuries, so severe that it could not be healed at Sarcosuchus’ Spirit Lake.

So, Sarcosuchus had asked Honey Badger to take the Mutant Spider back to North Canyon.

In North Canyon, the concentration of Life Force was a lot higher than at Spirit Lake. Furthermore, it contained Yu Zi Yu’s unique Life Essence. The Spirit Pond, which was far more concentrated than the Spirit Lake, was enough to heal the injuries of a Mutant Spider.

“Give her to me,” Yu Zi Yu gently stated as a black root emerged from the earth.

The next moment, the root swirled through the air, bringing the Mutant Spider to the Spirit Pond.

*Splash* 

With a splash of water, the Mutant Spider fell into the sparkling Spirit Pond.

The Spirit Pond was crystal-clear, yet it was surging with an inexplicable power.

Under this power, the injuries of the Mutant Spider healed at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.

More importantly, even the withered aura of the Mutant Spider was also showing signs of recovery.

Compared to before, Yu Zi Yu’s Life Essence not only healed physical injuries but also healed injuries to the psyche.

At this moment, he narrowed his eyes as a series of information entered his sight.

Race: Mutant Spider

Innate Talents: Web Spinning – The webs spinned by the Spider Queen have been strengthened through evolution. They are not only resistant to blades and swords but also highly adhesive. They are so hard that they can tear through steel. (Except they are very weak against high temperatures.)

Unique Abilities: Leg Scythe – Its eight black legs are as sharp as blades, and can easily tear through steel.

Spider Sense – It can gather information through vibrations in the air, sensing everything in the surroundings.

Adhesion – Its body can use principles similar to static electricity to adhere to any solid surface.

Staring blankly, Yu Zi Yu could not help but chuckle.

This Spider Queen’s abilities were indeed impressive.

In terms of individual combat strength alone, even nine Great Beasts under Yu Zi Yu would have a hard time defeating it at the same level. But, it just so happened to run into the brute – Honey Badger, and coincidentally, Green Mantis Mantis.

With these two attacking together, one in the open and one in the shadows, one attacking head-on and one attacking stealthily, they caught the Mutant Spider Queen off guard.

According to Honey Badger, this Mutant Spider Queen had sensed all their movements but often could not react in time.

Fortunately, it was Honey Badger and the Green Mantis who ran into this Mutant Spider Queen.

After all, these two were ranked in the top five among the Mutant Beasts under Yu Zi Yu’s command in terms of speed.

Especially the Green Mantis, which excelled at instant outbursts. His speed far exceeded the Mutant Spider’s ability to respond.

And for the Mutant Spider, this was her most fatal weakness.

Smiling in his heart, Yu Zi Yu gently touched the Mutant Spider’s head with his branch.

*Chi, chi…* Amidst the extremely faint cries, the Mutant Spider’s entire body trembled uncontrollably.

She was terrified, extremely terrified. This powerful force far exceeded her comprehension and caused her heart to be filled with fear.

“Do not be afraid, I won’t harm you.” Assuring in a gentle and comforting voice, Yu Zi Yu’s branches gently caressed the Mutant Spider’s head, just like caressing a pet.

However, it was worth mentioning that while the Mutant Spider looked pretty terrifying, her head was surprisingly soft and tender.

It felt extremely good to caress her head.
