Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After hearing the system notification, Mcgee said to the Heavenly Eye Spider Queen, “Since you’ve already surrendered, then call out your children!”
After hearing this, the Heavenly Eye Spider Queen turned her head towards the karst cave and called out in waves.
Following that, the four Heavenly Eye Spiders that had just disappeared crawled out in fear.
After Mcgee looked at them, he could not help but smile.
There were five Heavenly Eye Spiders in total, one was a level five female spider, and four were level one spiders.
This treasure map was indeed a treasure map!
Mcgee did not know at this time that the so-called treasure map was a conspiracy that someone had deliberately set up to target him.
He did not expect that Mcgee’s strength would be so powerful in just two days. Not only did he avert danger, but he also managed to subdue this group of Heavenly Eye Spiders successfully.
Mcgee carefully checked the attributes of the level 5 spiders.
Name: Heavenly Eye Spider Queen
Level: 5
Attributes: Insect, poison.
Skills: Poisonous teeth, silk, flying web, spider control.
Hidden Attributes: Rock.
Grade: Silver.

Advantages: It is a very patient hunter born to make traps, ‘Spider webs’. It is a rare and powerful a.s.sistant!
Disadvantage: It was afraid of fire, and it was afraid of heat.
Evolution: Corresponding attribute crystal core.
A level 5 Heavenly Eye Spider, just like the little Spirit Fox, was also silver quality and had three attributes!
If it were not for the little Spirit Fox restraining them this time, it would definitely have suffered a great loss!
After thinking of the purpose of coming here, Mcgee turned his head and said to the Heavenly Eye Spider, “Is there any treasure in this cave?”
After hearing this, the Heavenly Eye Spiders shook their heads and said to Mcgee, “Master, there is no treasure here. I have lived here for several years. I have explored every part of this cave carefully.”
After hearing this, although Mcgee felt a little regretful, he was also delighted.
Therefore, he waved his hand and said, “Let’s go home!”
Then, a human and a fox, together with the five spiders, began their return journey.
Before they left, the female spider looked at the karst cave reluctantly, then turned around and followed Mcgee.
The four little spiders behaved completely differently. They rarely came out, so they were very curious about everything outside the karst cave.
They were as active as the little spirit fox.
…
After returning home, Mcgee brought the little Spirit Fox to the side of the farmland.
Then, he said to the little Spirit Fox, “Release the skill, the power of nature!”
After the little Spirit Fox heard this, she obediently released the skill.
Then, a drizzle gradually began to fall around the farmland.
The sweet potatoes in the farmland also began to grow rapidly.
The newly sprouted shoots had already grown a tender yellow sweet potato leaf.
After casting the skill, Mcgee turned his head to look at the spiders.
The four little spiders had already climbed up a towering tree and were having a great time.
The crown of a big tree was now covered with spider silk as if it was covered with a thick layer of snow.
At this moment, the system announcement suddenly sounded.
[System Notification: Attention everyone, the novice protection period will end tonight. There may be monsters attacking at that time. Please be prepared!]
…
The system notification sounded three times in a row, confirming that everyone could receive this message.
It seemed that there was really a danger approaching this time.
[Hidden Notification: There will be an attack from the Berserk Hound lv. 5 at night, please do not go out as you please!]
After receiving the system notification, Mcgee quickly turned his head and said to the Heavenly Eye Spider, “Come over and help make the traps. There will be a fierce battle tonight! So we have to be fully prepared!”
After hearing that, the Heavenly Eye Spider’s interest was immediately piqued. Making traps was their specialty!
Mcgee planned to build a wall around the wooden house and farmland.
Then, he would set up some traps outside the wall.
Hence, Mcgee began dividing the work.
“Heavenly Eye Spiders, your upper jaws are very sharp, so you’re in charge of laying spider webs and making wooden thorns inside!”
“Little Spirit Fox, you’re naturally good at digging holes, so you’re in charge of digging some deep pits and traps outside. Is there a problem?”
After Mcgee finished speaking, the little Spirit Fox and the Heavenly Eye Spiders immediately answered,
“No problem!”
Mcgee saw that they were full of energy and immediately ordered, “Then let’s get to work!”
Thus, Mcgee’s tamed beasts immediately scattered and began their own work.
Mcgee’s workload was not small either. First, he had to finish building the planned wall before dark.
Fortunately, Mcgee had acc.u.mulated enough stone materials in the past few days to build the wall.
Mcgee first drew a wall around the wooden house on the ground and then built the wall.
The stones obtained through the trade were all square pieces, so the skill required to build a wall was not high.
Mcgee only needed to continuously take out stones from the inventory and then pile them up.
…
The sun had gradually moved to the west. Mcgee led a group of tamed beasts and worked enthusiastically.
The little Spirit Fox was indeed worthy of being called a good fox. It waved its front paws rapidly and easily dug a two-meter-long pit on the ground.
When it encountered a rock, it shattered it with a claw and continued to dig.
The little spiders continued to gnaw off some arm-thick branches from the tree. Then, they sharpened the two ends and inserted them into the deep pit that the little Spirit Fox had dug.
After the wooden thorns were inserted, they left some of their own venom on the top of the wooden thorns.
The venom would stab into the enemy’s body along with the wooden thorns and then poison the enemy.
Other than infusing the wooden thorns with venom, they also left many sticky spider silk between the wooden stakes.
This way, the prey that fell into the deep pit would have a hard time jumping out of it.
The Heavenly Eye Spider Queen was the best at it.
She stood on the wooden house roof and continuously used her skills, ‘spitting silk’ and ‘flying web’.
Sticky spider webs and spider silk shot out from the roof and flew towards the ground.
The ground instantly turned white as snow.
At this moment, Mcgee’s wall-building task was almost completed.
A two-meter-high stone wall surrounded the wooden house and the farmland.
After finis.h.i.+ng his work, Mcgee was ready to help the beasts make traps, but when Mcgee climbed up the wall, he saw that the wall was covered with a layer of white silk.
Mcgee was dumbfounded and stuttered, “Is it snowing? Does this kind of inescapable net really need a wall?”
The five spiders worked together and successfully dyed the spider silk a layer of white on the ground outside the wall.
There were also two-meter-deep traps under the spider silk. There were also wooden thorns that were soaked in poison.
The entire farm could be said to be impenetrable!
