MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 91: Battle Against Spider Mother



The smoke and dust spread throughout the forest, creating a thick haze that obscured the sun. "Cough..."

Adam choked on the air, struggling to breathe.

He slowly climbed back to his feet and looked around at the suffocating smoke.

He couldn't see anyone else.

'Where are they...'

Adam covered his mouth and nose with his hand and then moved deeper into the haze.

Click, click, click...

His feet halted, and he came to a complete stop.

The clicking sounded weak and barely audible. However, it didn't come too far from him.

Adam tightened his grip on his sword, then headed forward at a leisurely pace and soon came across a legless Spider Demon struggling to crawl.

It was desperately trying to head in the direction of the small mountain that didn't exist anymore.

"You can still sense your mother?" Adam stabbed his sword through the Spider Demon's head and then looked ahead.

The Spider Demon wasn't the only one who could still sense the Spider Demon.

'I can sense her... She's in pain.'

Adam continued walking forth and soon arrived at the site of the destruction.

The small mountain was no longer there.

It was replaced by a small crater with burned twigs and trees strewn about. The ground was still hot to the touch.

At that moment, a long leg of a spider stabbed through the ground, and from the thick smoke, a massive arachnid emerged, its eight eyes gleaming with malice.

Its black fur had burned off in patches, revealing a glossy, obsidian exoskeleton.

[Spider Mother]

[HP: 55%]

"Click, click, click, click!"

Adam narrowed his eyes and moved to an attacking stance.

However, then two Spider Demons jumped from the thick haze, screaming and clicking their fangs. They came here as fast as possible to defend their mother.

Adam quickly slashed through one of them and then blocked the other's durable exoskeleton

arms.

The Spider Demon clawed with its sharp mandibles, but Adam cut them straight off and then flicked his wrist, changing the trajectory of the blade, and hacked into the creature's head, killing it instantly.

"Click, click, click!"

The Spider Mother's clicking turned louder and more murderous. Her anger was boiling over like an erupting volcano.

Its steel legs lifted high into the air and then flew straight towards Adam.

Adam quickly activated his Kiryoku and evaded the highly dangerous legs, narrowly missing being impaled.

One of the legs swung sideways like a whip, but Adam quickly placed his shield at the side of him and blocked it.

However, his feet slid across the muddy ground, and he even almost slipped.

Another leg suddenly swung straight at him.

Adam leaped over it, and the leg smashed through the tree, shattering it into splinters.

The Spider Mother screeched in anger and swung several of her legs at Adam.

Adam, using his shield and sword, blocked them and moved at blitzering speed, dodging some of the legs and attacking a few, leaving behind slash marks on the creature's thick exoskeleton.

Clang, clang, clang!

The sparks flew as the two battled fiercely.

Adam and the Spider Mother exchanged a fierce series of blows, neither seemingly gaining an advantage.

Annoyed by it, the Spider Mother let out a spine-chilling screech.

Adam's body started trembling, and cold sweat rolled down his face. It looked like he was frightened of something.

'Fear... Inducement...'

The Spider Mother opened its disgusting mouth and shot out a wave of spiderwebs towards Adam.

The threads wrapped around him in a sticky embrace.

"Click, click, click..."

The Spider Mother slowly approached its prey. It still looked angry.

After all, this human killed so many of her children.

However, her anger slightly subsided, knowing that she was able to feast on such a large meal. It was much better than the usual boar, deer, or birds her children usually catch for her.

"Eaten alive, huh..." Adam gritted his teeth and tried to break through, but couldn't.

The Spider Mother's thread was strong material. It was often used for climbing rope, as it was much more durable than ordinary rope.

"There're bad ways to die-this is one of them..."

The Spider Mother opened its disgusting mouth wide. It would be able to eat Adam's head

with one bite.

As it was ready to feast on her prey, suddenly a ball of fire appeared on top of her tongue. She could smell and feel smoke rising up from her throat.

"Click?"

Boom!

The fireball exploded, and the Spider Mother screamed in agony. Its health dropped another ten percent, all the way to forty-five percent!

"Attack!" Knoxx's shout came from the haze, and then the remaining members of the party rushed towards Spider Mother and attacked her from all angles.

Hana shot her fireballs; her wand was constantly moving.

The Spider Mother recoiled in pain, screeching as she tried to fight back against the

onslaught.

Knoxx came to Adam and shouted, "Atom Slasher!"

His silvery blade cut through the thread with incredible accuracy, and then the spiderweb fell

off of Adam's body, setting him free.

"Whew, thanks." Adam saw his hands were still trembling in fear.

He quickly slapped himself in the face.

The Fear Inducement state vanished.

"I am not letting you hog all of the glory." Knoxx said and then nodded at Alan.

They rushed straight to the battle and pushed the Spider Mother further back.

The Spider Mother screeched annoyingly and shot her long leg straight towards Hana. It was as if she could tell that without her, it would be much easier to kill the rest.

Hana's face paled.

She imagined getting impaled by the long leg, and it made her tremble in fear.

At that moment, Adam came in and hacked his sword down. It went straight through the steel

leg, causing the spider creature to collapse and writhe in pain.

"Good shit, Adam!" Knoxx shouted and drove his sword through one of the Spider Mother's

eight eyes.

"T-thanks, Adam." Hana thanked him with a small blush on her cheeks.

"No problem!" Adam leaped to the top of the Spider Mother's bulging belly, and while she tried to shake him off, he plunged his sword deep into her body and twisted it.

With another painful screech, the Spider Mother shook him off and writhed around in agony. Everyone quickly retreated, or they would get crushed by her weight.

A few arrows flew and stabbed through her eyes. She was basically blind already, as her blood

dripped down her face in thick, dark streams.

"Attack!" Knoxx screamed, realizing that she was already at the gates of death.

Everyone surrounded her and attacked with everything they had.

Adam even started using his Little God, slashing with such speed that it seemed like he had

multiple arms.

After a short while, the Spider Mother let out one final screech and fell to the ground. She

looked mangled and lifeless, her many legs twitching in their final death throes.

And then, a few seconds later, she finally stopped moving.

Her health reached zero percent.

"Haah, haah..." Everyone panted and watched at the lifeless corpse of the Spider Mother.

"We did it..." Alan whispered.

After that, everyone erupted into cheers.

The raid was successful!

"Whew..." Adam smiled in relief and sat down on the ground.

Ding, ding!

"Huh?" He slowly opened his eyes and saw a surprising sight.

[You Have Leveled Up!]

[Level 1→2]

"Oh..." He chuckled, 'I guess I killed over a hundred Spider Demons, and then everyone who is

participating in boss fights also gets experience points, no matter if one didn't get the kill.

'It depends on how much one helped to kill it...

'I guess I got the largest percentage, giving me enough to level up... Level 2... Not enough to level up to Ordergiver, but my progress is looking good.'
