Chapter 11: Void Dream-Eating Spider! (Ask for recommendation!)
What appeared in front of Gary Smith was a creature about the size of a fist.
The lower half of it was a spider, the six legs beneath were in purple, connected to a fair abdomen. It was like an incredible masterpiece, crafted by a god-tier artisan using the finest amethyst, an uncommon artwork in the world that captivated anyone who glanced at it.
Its remaining two spider legs had transformed into slender and flawless arms, hands holding a peculiar purple cross hanging around its neck. The cross was akin to the Void Tree in its shape, with a dark nebula confined within multiple runic star rings at the center; it was radiant and mystical.
The upper half presented a human figure, silver hair hung on its shoulders, though due to the fluid from the egg, it was sticky.
Its face was like a delicate human girl's, but its petite soft face seemed to be of early spring snow. All of its features were beyond perfect. It was wearing a black lace blindfold — a white gold solar halo pattern on it, enclosing an upside-down triangle, and within that triangle was a purple eye entwined in thorns — with strong mystical accents, despite its simple design.
Coupled with its vulnerable expression as it was adapting to the new environment after just being born, it looked almost pitifully lovely like an innocent maiden grasping her heart.
Behind it in the void, six cracks had formed in a circular layout.
The cracks sprouted several purple eyes, a faint glowing void purple light pulsating around. From afar, these eyes formed six light points, creating a halo behind its head, mysteriously giving it a sense of sanctity.
If magnified to a typical size, this creature would be an exemplary collectible!
"The remaining six spider eyes actually grew in the spatial void, expanding the viewing scope. But why's the single eye on the human body covered? Is there some hidden ability?" Gary pondered as he felt his clothes being tugged by something. Looking down, he found the newborn creature that had somehow crawled to the edge of the table.
The Little Spider was holding the cross with one hand and was gently tugging at Gary's clothes with the other. It raised its tiny head and Gary could feel its deep attachment to him, even with the black blindfold on.
As Gary didn't respond immediately, the Little Spider subconsciously grabbed his clothes tighter, as if afraid that Gary would run away if it let go, and plaintively whimpered out, "Ying..."
Its voice sounded like a siren from the legends, melodic and beckoning.
It's a little crying creature!
Adorably irresistible!
For some strange reason, Gary felt like he now had a new daughter. He reached out and gently stroked the little creature's head, saying softly, "I'm here."
"Ying!"
The Little Spider, getting a response, unconsciously smiled with delight, rubbing its head gently against Gary's finger.
To it, this towering figure in front of it was its entire world and it did not wish to be detached for even a moment.
Looking at this clingy little one, Gary chuckled as he took out a handkerchief and began to wipe it clean. At the same time, data on the Little Spider also emerged in his mind.
[Void Dream-Eroding Spider]
[Description: A favored beast that can traverse the void and dreamscape, blessed by the void and dreamscape, after consuming the Evolutionary Secret Food—the Void Saintess Fruit.]
[It can traverse spaces freely, create the void, spawn slave beasts, loves devouring space fragments and dreamscapes, proficient in spinning illusions and dreamscapes with spider silk. Most of the time, it uses the inner eye to perceive the world. If the sealed blindfold is taken off, its strange eye will tear apart any living creature it gazes upon and drag its consciousness into the dreamland.]
[Strength: Servant Mid-level.]
[Racial potential: Overlord High Stage]
[Skills: Illusions (Can create illusions)
Dream Weaver (Can consume dreamscapes and convert them into Dream string, to weave defensive instrument tracks that can withstand any attacks launched in dreamscapes.)
Void Blessing (Can manipulate forces of space.)
Dreamscape Blessing (Can enter dreamscapes of different sentient creatures, manipulate the forces of the dreamscape.)
Tearing Demon Eye (The Heavenly Nun Eye Patch helps to stabilize its spiritual power. Once unsealed and activated, this demon eye will consume an immense amount of life force every moment, tearing apart every life form it sees.)
Void Beam (Fired from the six eyes of the Void. Any entities that come in contact will shatter into fragments.)
Void Treasure Chest (Can create a stable void for storage, the stronger the creature, the larger the void that can be created.)
Etherealization (With the combined blessings of the void and dreamscape, it can temporarily become ethereal and evade attacks.)
Mind Eye Soul Sword (Inherits the Mind Eye ability, greatly enhancing its sensing power. Has perfect command of Heavenly Nun Swordsmanship and can summon the Spirit Sword to attack the spirit by drawing out the soul.)
Void Nest (Inherits the Abyssal Mantis's nest. The external nest evolves and transforms after integrating, folds space, existing in the form of a necklace along with the presence of a Matriarch Queen. By consuming super-tier blood and flesh and space fragments can incubate slave beasts. There are the blood erosion worms that devour life, and the spatial-darting shimmering spiders. As the mother nest is freshly incubating, there are 10 of them, and the number will increase as it grows stronger.)]
No doubt for a beast with Overlord's potential, it has an entire ten skills. The mere descriptive display dazzled Gary Smith.
The skills naturally also have tiers, which are respectively low-level, mid-level, high-level, super-level, and legendary-level.
He had never seen a legendary-level skill.
The same attribute skill, from low-level to super-level, sees its power multiplied geometrically.
The overlord's favored beast is so powerful precisely because it has at least one super-level skill and several high-level skills.
Among the skills of the Void Dream Spider, except for 'Illusions' and 'Dreamscape Blessing' which are mid-level, the rest including 'Mind's Eye Spirit Sword' and all related Spatial system skills, are high-level skills.
It has two super-level skills, one of which is 'Void Nest' that can breed powerful slave beasts.
The Blood Erosion Worm must be the progeny of the original ancient god from the world of nuns, by devouring vitality, it triggers madness in demons to harvest a large amount of blood and flesh to nourish itself.
Shimmering spiders are a variant of twinkling mantises and can shimmer through spaces to attack, making them the top assassins.
And Gary Smith also learned something from the soul information of the little spider.
That is, although 'Void Nest' is external and looks like it can be snatched and shattered, in reality...
It is the most dangerous!
Because this thing...
Is alive!
Equivalent to a mobile portal, the real nest is in the void, controlled by the little spider.
If anyone thinks this is the weak point of the little spider and wants to get close to seize it, they will be directly grabbed by the Void Nest, devoured for their blood and flesh. If the opponent is too strong to be devoured, they would be banished with a void curse imprint.
This is too cunning!
But I like it!
The second super-level skill is 'Etherealization', which can forcibly etherealize the body to avoid the damage. This is a top-level life-saving skill. The dream beast that the Dream Eater Cult dreams of.
As for the 'Tearing Demon Eye', while its power is close to super-level, it is not a regular skill. Killing a thousand will damage oneself by eight hundred.
However, it can complement the 'Blood Erosion Worm' and reduce the side effects to a minimum.
Regarding the solidified skills of the BeastMaster, Gary Smith had already made a choice. That is the life-saving god skill 'Etherealization'.
As long as you are alive, you have everything!
Anyway, as a magician-type role, the Little Spider will not be too far away and can enjoy the rest of the skills.
Thinking of this, Gary Smith looked down at the little spider that had been constantly rubbing against his finger.
Who could imagine that this terrifying demon, which could easily destroy a modern city in the future, was now eagerly seeking his touch like a little kitten?
His and its lives are forever together.
From now on, he was no longer alone.
Maybe, this is the meaning of beast control!
Gary Smith pinched the little spider's face and said softly:
"Let's call you 'Stella Clark', nickname Little Spider!"
"Ying Ying!"
The Little Spider nodded seriously, making a 'ying ying' sound, seeming to be learning to call its name. Paired with its soft and cute tone, it was incredibly cute.
Gary Smith laughed. The Little Spider also laughed happily.
In fact, it, just born, doesn't understand the meaning of a name. But as long as the master is happy, that's enough.
Gary Smith held the little spider in his hand, thinking about another issue.
The additional effect of excellent secret food can evolve a skill.
Which skill should be evolved?
