MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 80 Golden Anthropomorphic Spider
The latest website: "Uh, master, hello." Youni walked to the spider silk platform and bowed his head to the existence called the master. Etiquette is very important. Although the etiquette between different regions and species is completely different or even opposite, the intention to express respect sincerely will be conveyed to the other party through behavior and language. Hypocritical and complicated etiquette is really useless, simple and sincere actions Otherwise.
This is an important teaching taught by the cheese to the apprentices, and it is also the teaching that the gray robes received from their teachers. Salute is a sign of humility. If a person thinks that there is nothing worth saluting, then he will completely lose his equality with others The ability to communicate becomes an ego-inflated monster. For the caster, excessive self-inflation is tantamount to suicide, or even worse, they will cause more damage if they are self-willed.
"Master is a positional title for us. You are not an eight-legged creature, so you don't need to call me that. Please call me Goethe, a four-legged creature." Goethe, one of the weaving masters, responded to Youni's greetings, and at the same time It fully revealed it in front of the apprentice, no, his form.
The first impression of this creature is that it is golden, yes, although it is a creature, there are a lot of lines and patterns like real gold all over his body, mixed with a black background color, the contrast between the two It is so strong that those golden parts stand out even more.
After adapting to the extraordinary visual impact, people have the opportunity to observe his appearance. Of course, he is a spider. He has a huge date pit-shaped abdomen, and a waist that is stronger and bigger than others of the same kind. , and an upwardly raised, anthropomorphic head.
In many legends, there are hybrids of humans and spiders, males and females, generally the upper body of humans plus the lower body of spiders, somewhat similar to the structure of a centaur.
But the anthropomorphism in front of Youni is not like this. The simulation in nature is not a one-to-one copy, but often just a mimicry of the general shape and outline. Just like the spider in front of him, his head has a head that resembles the upper body of a human male. The shape is small, but there is no head. The two arms extending from the shoulders have become two slender tentacles, and there are six dark golden eyes on the chest. His mouthparts are located in the abdomen, and some human-like abdominal muscles are separated from the center to the two sides by a crack, and the muscle blocks on both sides are stretched symmetrically to form something like teeth.
There is no doubt that he is a monster. Whenever this self-proclaimed Gothic creature appears around humans or any humanoid settlements, it is guaranteed to be regarded as a monster, and there will be no room for it. But what's interesting is that apart from the appearance, Yoni didn't feel that there was anything really scary about the other person, especially after hearing him speak, the voice was not as loud as humans perceive, and there was nothing in it. anything disturbing. Overall, the weaving master is quite beautiful, if not for the resemblance of the head to the human body.
"You can call me Youni." The apprentice tried hard to make his voice appear calm enough. This had nothing to do with being afraid or not, but purely the tension caused by communicating with another completely unfamiliar individual in such a situation.
"Okay, Mr. Youni, or Miss? Sorry, I can't distinguish your gender very well. Please forgive me. There have been no creatures with limbs visiting here for many, many years." The golden weaving master moved his body slightly, signaling the apprentice Follow yourself to the far side of the platform.
Youni tried to lift his foot, but found that the entire sole of his foot was stuck to the spider silk, making him unable to move. The stickiness of the spider silk here is more than ten times stronger than the ones he encountered before, and he dared to conclude that if he fell on it, he would lose all resistance.
"Help him." Goethe waved the tentacles slightly, and the spider that had brought the apprentice here immediately put him back on its back with its forelimbs, serving as Uni's means of transportation again.
"Sorry, I don't have the ability to walk on the Internet like yours." Youni touched his neck in embarrassment. He felt that being helped in such trivial matters would damage his image. If it was a teacher, he would definitely think of it. other ways.
However, the weaving master didn't respond, "No, I forgot about it. There are too many people of the same race living here, so I almost forgot that besides us, these silk threads were originally used to restrict movement. Especially the ones under our feet I’m still in charge of this part, my silk thread has always been known for its stickiness, so naturally it won’t go easily. In fact, I should let you carry you, but it’s not easy to communicate, so I can only continue to trouble this sentinel.”
"My honor, master." The sentinel spider responded naturally, without taking the opportunity to let Goethe remember what he meant. This is another place that is different from humans.
"Then, please forgive me that we have long forgotten our habits of four-limbed creatures, and we cannot welcome you according to your preferences. Let me just say, what are you here for? If you just passed by by chance, you without wings should not arrive our country."
Youni was silent for a few seconds. He looked at the butterfly on his shoulder, but he didn't get any response, so he tried his best to organize the words in his mind, "I'm here to ask for help."
"Help? Well, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is a concept that is not commonly used for us. Maybe we can change it to say, symbiosis."
I have to admit that even if he just speaks slowly, the oppression of the golden spider Goethe is still very strong, especially when he said the word symbiosis, Youni instinctively sensed the danger, and even prepared to transform preparation. But in the next second, that feeling disappeared.
"I probably understand the meaning of the word symbiosis. If I understand correctly, it refers to the state in which two creatures provide each other with certain help and live interdependently. But I have no plans to live here for a long time." Youni I still have some understanding of the word symbiosis. After all, the first step to understanding animals is to see how they survive, and symbiotic relationships in nature are by no means rare.
Goethe stopped, raised his eight long legs one by one, turned around slightly, and looked at Youni,
"It's okay, that's just a saying, it's enough for you to understand. We don't mind helping you, but we also need corresponding rewards. Generally speaking, we will tend to charge for food and other things that are not easy to get here things, but right now, we only want one thing. If you can help us solve the problem of spider silk dissolving in water, we will pay for anything."
