Chapter 113: Crystal Spider Forest
Sage had no idea of the prowess of the Crystal Spiders, but he was ready to give it a try. Since Rocky told him to do it, surely it would be within his capabilities. Calling forth the Chameleon Mantis, he sent it into the forest to hunt a spider. At the same time asking Rocky a question, Is this a complete eradication? Should I set up a formation to make sure none of them can escape?The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.
He was already trying to gauge the size of the forest and going through the formations he knew to see which would be best suited to this situation. For trapping, illusion formations were usually the most preferable, expending the least energy to keep an enemy under control. Instead of tying them up or building big walls it was easier to just confuse their senses. The only downside was whether or not the Crystal Spiders would be vulnerable to the formation. If they were puppets or constructs of some sort the lack of a mind would protect them from most of the effects of an illusionary array.
Rocky was taken aback, or at least thats what Sage guessed given the slow response. So far Rocky had been completely dismissal of Sage, but he always had a quick reply. Another moment later he spoke, We dont have to wipe them out completely, just lock them back in.
Sage nodded his head, that would make things much easier. Still looking at the forest he continued to browse all the Formation Diagrams inside his Storage Ring while asking questions, What are the Crystal Spiders weaknesses? Are they vulnerable to mental attacks and illusions? How large of an area will have the greatest concentration of them?
Rocky was quick to answer this time, They dont have any flesh or blood, but they do have minds and theyre very brittle like crystal. They wont burn, but they do melt and shatter. They should be most concentrated within a few miles of their breach point. Well have to find it first to know for sure.
As they spoke, some loud noises rang out from the forest. It sounded like glasses clinking together, but magnified a hundred times louder. Sage closed one eye while Rocky looked over, the Chameleon Mantis having revealed itself as it struck a few times at a Crystal Spider. The first strike seemed unsuccessful, but the second one split a spider in half at the joints.
They also seem to be weaker at their joints. said Sage. He called back the Mantis before it was overrun, there were Crystal Spiders everywhere in the forest and he didnt want to draw them out from the center. It would be better if they could infiltrate and draw them back to their nest before triggering an array.
Rocky looked at the Mantis, That thing is yours? Not bad, Kid.
An hour later, Rocky and the Warp Worm surfaced in a clearing on a small hill. Sage hopped out and started to look at the area, This should be a suitable anchor point. Thankfully the tunnel they came out of only has three branches that lead to the surface. I was worried there would be dozens.
Rocky nodded.
Sage nearly let out an audible sigh at Rockys treatment of words as if they were gold, A few miles is too large of an area for Formation Plates. It till take me a few hours to create anchor points for a true array formation. This spot seems the most defensible so Ill put the core of the array here.
Rocky nodded again.
Sage almost voluntarily let his annoyance show on his face, but stopped himself at the last instant, After we have them contained in the array we can head down and collapse the tunnel at a deeper chokepoint. It should be a better seal than just burying the three entrances. We wont be so pressed for time with the threat contained, and we can make sure its properly sealed.
Rocky nodded. Sage almost felt his eye twitch, but then Rocky said something.
Ill collapse the tunnel. It will be easy if I dont have to worry about escaping Spiders.
Finally. At least he heard the plan. I wasnt sure if he just falling asleep with all that silent nodding.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
