Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World-Chapter 79: The Great Web

One week later.

Word had spread from one mind to the other, letting most of the creatures in the foreknow of the happenings.

Webs carrying detailed information were spun and stretched to almost every corner of the known forest.

That is, everywhere except the small region surrounding the mountain. Every animal, wise or dumb knew that the area surrounding the mountain was a no-go area.

Originally, because of the average power level of animals that resided there, it was already bad if ordinary animals wandered there. But now, there were wolves.

A particular area of the mountain foot had wolves going and coming in droves. They patrolled the whole area and hunted down anything they saw.

Any creature that stumbled into that area and survived to tell the tale made sure to inform their comrades. Very few creatures could stay in that part of the forest and still survive easily.

Most had to have a very high power level from the wolves to see them and just let them be.

One of the creatures that found it easy to infiltrate this special part of the forest was the spiders.

The few times Kael had seen the spiders, he always felt something odd about them. And there was indeed something odd about them.

Under the earth, inside deep dark burrows, creepy slithering sounds echoed through the strong walls.

The burrows, which started from multiple parts of the forest, connected to form a complex network of underground tunnels and caves.

Spiders ranging from the size of a large dog to the size of a regular spider crept through the tunnel.

Each burrow has its entrance covered by an intricately woven web. Each woven web had a web string that hung from the woven web and fell down the burrows.

These web strings were long, extending all the way until they connected to another web string. Like this, multiple spider webs from the surface were interconnected marvelously, creating a bizarre network between themselves.

At the big entrance of a particular burrow, the woven webs faced the sky. The webs were intricately woven with the strings very close to each other but never touching.

It had eight points to hold its form to the edges of the burrow. The web was so finely woven that only a spider would be able to maneuver around it to get into the burrow without getting stuck.

Behind the web, on the face that faced the dark insides of the burrow, a large black metallic spider elegantly clung to the woven web with its eight legs.

Beside it, a long white web string led down to the depths of the burrow which turned into a wide tunnel.

Suddenly, the web string glowed erratically for a brief moment, followed by a very unique vibration. This vibration was felt clearly by the large spider.

It slowly opened its big eight black eyes like it was awakening from a long slumber. It flexed its long eight legs, revealing their full lengths and releasing a satisfying creaking sound.

"Hmm, is that so?" A deep masculine voice spread out in the form of invisible telepathic waves.

The spider, which from its voice, revealed itself to be male, extended one of his front legs to touch the web string.

The point tip moved and the web string was wrapped around the spider’s leg. The spider savored the new batch of information like it was the most delicious food.

Then, the two curved fangs that it had for a mouth quivered. The spider’s face remained placid though.

He stretched his legs, climbing from the woven web to latch onto the burrow’s walls.

One sharp step at a time, he climbed down the burrow until he entered the tunnel his burrow was connected to.

He began to walk down the tunnel in one direction, he walked into some cave and met some spiders there, apparently hanging out.

These spiders were usually of a different species. Some were green and tall, some were red and spiky, and some were black and metallic, like him.

The only common thing between all these spider subspecies was the spirit energy that they constantly emitted.

This was the weird thing about spiders. Not only did each of them have access to certain elemental powers, they all had the same access to the spirit power.

That was to say, each spider had two different powers: A unique power and a spirit power.

Why else could the spiders grow so powerful if not for this? This type of racial advantage could not be seen in any other creature in the forest.

Adding this to their unique spider physiology that helped them mold how their powers were used, they were a force to be weary of.

As the black spider walked through the tunnels and caves, walking over the web strings lying down everywhere, he didn’t have any conversation with any of the spiders that he met.

Not even a greeting, the spiders that he met minded their business in turn. One would assume they had never seen themselves before now when that wasn’t the case.

It was as if they had an unspoken agreement with each other to mind their business whenever they met.

There would even be an occasional expression of hostility through their telepathic waves whenever one of the spiders got close to the other

They were trying too hard to avoid each other even though their webs were all connected in one way or the other.

If Kael were here, he would wonder how a race that could be so connected in the most bizarre network be so disconnected from themselves.

The black spider continued walking until it reached a cave. This cave was very wide and had a high ceiling.

This cave also had multiple spiders gathered and facing a particular direction with fanatical gazes.

Most of these spiders were black and metallic like the one that just entered. There were a few that were of a different species but they were not much.

As soon as the black spider entered the cave, his eight eyes were filled with awe and admiration as he looked at the center of the cave, just like the rest.

All of these spiders had auras that could easily rival a tier 2 wolf. None of them were small fry.

"Good day brother," One of the spiders surprisingly greeted him.

"Good day sister," And surprisingly, he greeted back.

"Good day…"

"Good day…"

"Good day…"

The spiders in this cave all greeted themselves, calling each other brother or sister like they were siblings.

"WELCOME CHILDREN!"

A telepathic voice that was filled with vast power spread through the cave like a tsunami. Its origin point was the center.

"Good day brood master!" The spiders, who numbered more than a hundred, answered at the same time.

At the center of this gathering was a large humanoid figure. At least, it looked humanoid.

This figure was tall, more than seven feet tall. Its lower body was that of a large black metallic spider while its upper body was a busty pale-skinned woman.

The woman looked middle-aged with a beautiful face and well-positioned shoulders.

She had two large eyes and six tiny black dots on her cheeks. Three on the left, then three on the right.

"I am glad you all could make it upon receiving my message. If not for this level of discipline, we would not have become one of the most successful Web Handlers on The Great Web." The so-called ’brood master’ spoke with elation and the surrounding spiders listened attentively.

"The reason I called for this meeting is to discuss the new changes on the surface world.

The arrival of he who is called Kael has caused unforeseen changes.

And of recent, the wolves of the Bibi clan have come under his rule, serving as his soldiers.

Some of us may be enemies of the wolves, yet, Kael could serve as a very beneficial patron to our group."

Hearing her words, the spiders began to converse with each other in hushed tones. Indeed, some of them were enemies of the wolves and their fangs quivered from rage.

One of the spiders, red with yellowish hair on its legs, was at the front of the gathering with a thoughtful expression.

"Do you have something to say? You can speak up." The brood master leaned down to look at the red spider. Her breasts dangled as she smiled warmly at this red spider.

The spider hesitated for a moment before stepping forward.

"Hush!" The brood master commanded and instantly, the talking spiders ended their chatter.

The red spider spoke up, "I understand that this Kael is a very unpredictable person. His decision isn’t always what it says it is, we can see this from how he annexed the Bibi Clan.

We can be assured that he is a very ambitious individual and, therefore, very dangerous.

However, such a person would usually be very beneficial as their need for valuable information is always higher than the average forest dweller.

He might work with the wolves but if we are being as practical as we have always been, we should pick benefits over any sentiments.

This is just my suggestion brood master."

After saying that, the red spider took a step back to regain her place within the crowd.

The brood master shook her head slightly with a mysterious smile. She turned to another spider, a black and metallic one who had been fidgeting all this time.

"Yes, do you have any suggestions?" She asked.

Immediately, the black spider rushed out and said with his heart filled with rage, "We should immediately label him as an enemy.

People like him should not be trusted, no matter how much benefit we could get. It’s not worth the risk.

Plus, he’s working with the wolves. Who knows whether they have already made plans for us.

This is just my suggestion brood master."

As soon as he said that, the brood master began to laugh like she had heard the funniest joke ever. Even some other spiders joined in on the laugh, knowing fully well what the brood master considered ’funny.’

"Hahaha… made plans for us?.... hahaha…"
