Chapter 296: Chapter 145: Additional Gains
Taking a deep breath, bowing deeply with the most respectful posture, hand on chest.
“Thank you for your mercy, the Night Shadow Clan will forever remember your kindness.”
The promise from the other side gave the Night Shadow Clan the confidence to survive, as heavy as a mountain!
Lear didn’t say much, waving for the Bubble Beasts to come forward and start loading ore.
As the transport convoy of Weilu City, these adorable little creatures were no slouch.
Under the curious gaze of the Spider Priest, they blew one giant bubble after another, floating upwards.
Then like the mouth of a giant beast, they swallowed a large area of ore.
Stuffing the bubbles full to the brim.
After Lear gained control of the authority, these little creatures’ Level quietly increased from Level 8 to Level 10.
Their strength increased significantly.
The chain reaction also seemed to bring significant improvement to Grandma Green Grass…
These swamp-related lives gained a lot of benefits from being around him.
With the level increased, the cargo they could carry also increased.
The bubbles blown by the Bubble Beast now expanded from a 3-meter diameter to a 4-meter diameter.
Further enhancing their loading capacity.
Each Bubble Beast, filled with 10 bubbles of ore, with 20 Bubble Beasts meant 200 bubbles.
Each bubble, with a diameter of 4 meters, could hold at least 30 tons of ore.
That meant those 200 bubbles equated to 6,000 tons.
This was entirely a large convoy.
And remarkably, bubble transport didn’t require oil… just one fish per hundred kilometers.
Two hundred ore-laden bubbles floated in mid-air, creating a strong visual impact.
Mountains of 4-star high tier ore were loaded, leaving only a small pile.
The other ores were mostly ordinary iron ore, incomparable to the 4-star ones.
Lear wasn’t very interested in them, and planned to come back and transport them later when he had time.
The Spider Priest had no dissatisfaction, instead seemed quite pleased.
Despite the abundance of ore, who was on the opposite side?!
A Divine Spirit of the swamp!
Using this bit of ore to build a relationship with them, it was simply a huge gain!
Look at others, can they communicate directly with such a being?
Even if offering ten times the resources, they might not be able to witness the Divine Spirit.
This was an opportunity, luck, the favor of the Goddess of Fortune!!
After the ore transportation was completed, Lear thought of the matter of slaves mentioned by the Spider Boggart earlier.
Immediately, he inquired about it with the Spider Priest.
Upon hearing this, the other party promptly said.
“Your Majesty, the slaves we captured are imprisoned in the dungeon, there are over a thousand people, and those captives have gentle temperaments, very suitable to serve as slaves.”
“However, the mines we occupied are already saturated, so we temporarily detain them.”
“I’ll have someone bring a few for you to inspect right away…”
He immediately gave orders.
Lear didn’t linger, leading the Great Demon and Bubble Beasts out of the treasury to the hall.
Soon, several Spider Boggarts brought in ten or so disheveled figures.
Their appearance, height, and looks weren’t much different from humans.
The only difference was these beings had a pair of large, conspicuous ears that flapped prominently.
In their full fear and unease, Lear opened their Attribute Panel.
Big Ear People
Level: Level 1
Racial Talent: Gentle, when commanded, can execute orders 100%…
Level 1 life, not much to look at, but the talent… indeed, it’s what he wanted.
Nodding slightly.
“How many of these Big Ear People are there exactly?”
“Over 1,200 in total…”
“Good, I want them all!”
“Tomorrow I’ll send someone to bring them back! Prepare them!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
The Spider Priest was straightforward.
They had no shortage of slaves, keeping them was just a waste of food.
If pleasing this lord was possible, it was undoubtedly a great deed.
Lear nodded, increasingly satisfied with everything around him.
This was not a scary spiderized life, it was as if they were his beloved family and friends.
Through this entire experience, he gathered quite a lot of things.
Moreover, the other party was willing to offer their entire clan to provide a venue for his research on the revival of the Spider God’s remaining soul.
More importantly… they could continuously provide him with ore in the future.
Without requiring great costs from him.
He was quite content.
Thus, Lear’s objectives at the Night Shadow Clan were fulfilled, and he didn’t intend to stay further.
The sacrifice summoning, which he just inquired about with the Spider Priest, would not be accomplished in days.
It required long-term worship.
He didn’t have enough time to wait there.
Today was the 15th; on the 17th, he still had a 5-star level warning intelligence waiting for him… the Master of Stench and Flies had obtained an Ancient God Treasure, preparing to curse him.
That Demigod had a streak of luck recently.
Although his concern for the Master of Stench and Flies significantly diminished after obtaining authority.
Such a mere Demigod, daring to strike against a True God?!
Still, strategically underestimating the opponent while tactically emphasizing diligence was necessary; 5-star level intelligence was not false.
Carelessness might actually lead to a setback.
After finishing these trivial matters, it was best to preserve his spirit to face that Demigod.
Before leaving the Night Shadow Clan, Lear visited the plane occupied by the spiders.
However, he didn’t see much, passing through the space rift, all he saw were towering colossal trees and dense spider webs.
Apparently, over the past twenty years, these spiders had already transformed this area into their home ground.
Even if an enemy attacked, it wouldn’t be easy.
Confirming that there was nothing to do at the Night Shadow Clan, Lear agreed to send people tomorrow to take away the over thousand Big Ear People, and then left directly.
This time, he didn’t ride a giant spider, instead soared into the air, flying away over the forest.
Beside him, 200 bubbles filled with ore followed closely, appearing rather spectacular.
The Spider Priest dared not be presumptuous, continually following through the forest below, stopping only when Lear completely left the Night Shadow Clan’s range.
Looking at the disappearing silhouette on the horizon, the Spider Priest exhaled slowly.
Beside him, a Level 12 Spider Boggart hero glanced over, asking with some confusion.
“Priest, is that human really so formidable? Worthy of such attention from you?!”
Ordinary Spider Boggarts lacked the ability to discern divinity; in their view, although Lear was somewhat unusual, with a mighty Great Demon beside him, he didn’t seem worth giving away everything in their territory.
But they could only obey the priest’s decision and dared open up only after the guest had left.
Questioning their clan’s supreme commander in front of outsiders was out of the question for the Night Shadow Clan.
The Spider Tribe had strict hierarchy.
Spider Priest’s gaze was deep, looking at the confused crowd around him, spoke tremblingly.
“Did you all know… Our God was killed by Spider Queen Rose?”
“The authority is already in the Spider Queen’s control, in the future, our prayers will no longer be answered…”
“We no longer have a God!”
A huge bomb dropped, the crowd burst into shock and disbelief.
Spider Priest watched the trembling crowd, a force also surging in his chest.
He said sternly.
“Did you know, after the Spider Queen seized the authority, our God was left with only a remnant soul, requiring daily and nightly sacrifices to possibly return?”
“And do you know who informed me of this news?”
The crowd, amidst a series of shocks, subconsciously glanced toward the direction where Lear had disappeared.
The Spider Priest turned and swept his gaze, coldness flashing in his eyes.
“Is that Majesty someone you can question?”
“He is on the same level as our God!”
“Fortunately, no foolishness was made to inquire in front of him, otherwise, enforcement of statutes would be necessary!”
“Remember, that Majesty is someone we cannot provoke; even offering him all our treasures is an honor for us.”
“As long as we gain a bit of his favor, the Night Shadow Clan can start anew!”
“Pass this down, in the future anyone who encounters that lord must maintain the highest respect, any disrespect will be dealt with according to the laws!”
In front of Lear, the Spider Priest was humble and frail, nearly bowing to the ground.
But within the Night Shadow Clan, he was the guide of the entire clan, the absolute ruler.
His word was law.
Without him, the entire clan might have long been destroyed.
Everyone lowered their heads in unison, no longer daring to voice a hint of doubt.
The Spider Priest, seeing this, unconsciously turned back toward the direction where Lear disappeared, taking a deep breath, waving his hand.
“Return… prepare for the sacrifice, our God is still awaiting us.”
