Chapter 8: Inescapable Web
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Within the Lightning Maze Realm that the two strong figures were in, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled from time to time.
Osmond and Hill did not realize that danger was approaching.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss…”
Three blue Electric Web Spiders appeared in the sight of the two demon kings.
The Electric Web Spiders had fangs and eight slender spider legs. Each of its legs had furry barbs, and it had deadly venom throughout its body. Between its two fangs, there was a lightning web. These were the most obvious characteristics of the lightning web spider.
The Electric Web Spiders were one meter tall and three meters wide. They were big beasts with two huge fangs. Three spiders stood in a row, blocking the way of the two demon kings.
“Oh my god, what a huge spider!” Hill exclaimed.
It was Hill’s first time seeing such a huge spider. He quickly turned around and hid behind Osmond.
Osmond’s expression turned serious when he saw the Electric Web Spiders. He wasn’t as dramatic as Hill and said calmly, “It’s just a few spiders. Why are you panicking?”
Osmond, who had experienced several battles, was not as flustered as he had been when he faced the Giant Rock Python. He was obviously used to all kinds of strange creatures in this world.
Hill pretended to be serious and replied, “Ahem, I’m just surprised. I’m not afraid.” Then Hill and Osmond stood side by side.
Osmond pressed the golden bracelet and read the data of the spider.

“Skills: Electric Grid, Venemous Caltrop Trap”
The web of spiders that had already made a hunting plan looked fierce when they saw the two intruders.
The plan of these three spiders was to drive the two of them to a nearby path, where they would then launch all kinds of scary tricks.
Unexpectedly, Osmond did not buy into their bluff. The two demon kings, Osmond and Hill, had no intention of running away.
However, Hill couldn’t stand it anymore. He was very unhappy with the spider’s provocation.
Hill rushed forward and grabbed one of the spiders. He raised his fist and punched it, but the spider didn’t seem to have any intention of resisting.
Could it be that the Electric Web Spiders had no ability to resist? No.
Just as Hill was feeling excited, he felt a wave of dizziness. Slowly, he felt weak all over.
After the barbs on the spider’s body were pierced into the enemy’s body, the enemy would not be able to immediately feel the effects. Only after a minute would the venom spread to the enemy’s entire body, causing their nerves to be too excited, and then their entire body would become weak.
The Electric Web Spiders had used the [Venemous Caltrop Trap] skill, and Hill was injured by it. This skill could increase the spiders’ defense by 20 points in a short period of time. When Hill attacked the Electric Spider, it did not suffer much damage.
Instead, Hill was injured by the barbs on the web spider’s body, and the venom entered his body. It was because of the spread of the venom that made Hill feel powerless.
When the Electric Web Spiders saw that Hill had lost all his strength, it spat out a huge silk web and caught him.
Hill felt that he had fallen into a trap, so he kept struggling in the web spat out by the spiders. Then, the web emitted a strong electric current, which made Hill tremble all over. After a while, Hill fainted from the electric shock.
The electric web spat out by the spiders was different from ordinary webs. It was extremely tough and had a voltage of more than 500 volts. Any creature that came into contact with the electric web without a strong resistance would faint from the electrocution.
Then, the spider grabbed Hill and fled toward a small path.
The direction in which the spiders fled was the path that had already been covered by the webs. They wanted to lure Osmond over and make him fall into their trap in an attempt to capture him.
Osmond saw that Hill was captured, so he had to save him, so he immediately chased after the spider. He did not expect that the spider had already set up an inescapable web on the trail, waiting for him to fall into the trap.
Everything was going according to plan.
“You want to run? Stop!” shouted Osmond.
Soon, Osmond caught up with the web spider. At this time, he had not reached the place where the web was set up.
The Electric Web Spiders didn’t expect Osmond to be so fast. Before it could run any further, it was stopped by Osmond.
Then, the spider spat out an electric web and pounced at Osmond.
“Pfft…”
“Little thing, you want to catch me with this kind of stupid web?” said Osmond disdainfully.
Osmond turned and dodged. The electric web did not touch him.
Then, he flapped his wings and quickly flew towards the spider that had spat out the electric web. He waved his dragon claws and rushed up to slash the spider. The Electric Web Spider got hit and fell to the ground.
The other two spiders knew they couldn’t beat Osmond, so they split up and fled.
The two spiders split up. One of them ran south, while the other ran north. Hill was dragged along by the spider that went north.
It had to be said that the Electric Web Spiders were very cunning. The spider that went north was heading towards the web they had set up.
Osmond didn’t think much about it. He didn’t need to care about the spider that was running south. He just wanted to save Hill first. So he chased after the web spider that was running north.
The spider that was holding onto Hill stopped when it saw the web. It left Hill there and ran away.
When Osmond saw that the spider had thrown Hill down, he said happily, “At least you know when to back off.”
Osmond leaned forward and tried to undo the electric web that trapped Hill.
“Whoosh…”
At this moment, a huge web fell from the sky.
Before Osmond could untie Hill, he was caught by the huge web that fell from the sky.
“Shit!”
Only then did Osmond realize that he had fallen into the trap set by the Electric Web Spiders.
The electric web instantly released 1,000 volts of electricity. Osmond trembled. He tried to pull the web apart, but the more he pulled, the more he was electrocuted.
In the past, the Electric Web Spiders had used the ingenious terrain and strange weather here to kill tens of thousands of invaders.
Osmond’s consciousness gradually blurred, and he could no longer see Hill clearly. Under the voltage, he soon lost consciousness and fainted.
The Electric Web Spiders hiding nearby saw the two demon kings fall into their trap and said excitedly, “Hiss hiss… (Report back to the king, we have captured a dragon and a bear)”
Just like that, Osmond and Hill were caught by the Electric Web Spiders and brought back to their cave.
