New Earth- A World Of Chaos 70 Alyssa's Lair 2

At this moment, Alyssa was upside down, her hairy legs were holding on the spider web on the roof of the cavern.

"How dare you!" said Alyssa in a rattle.

As she spoke, 10 other spiders appeared and started to go down the roof by using strings of spider webs.

Li Wei, t.i.tan and Silent Day quickly moved in order to protect the mage and Bright Sun. The spiders were slowly approaching. As for Alyssa, she used her long legs to move along the wall, towards the eggs.

Before the spider could reach the ground, Bright Sun and the mage both activated their rings' skill. They both had the same one that contained the same skill: [Fireball]

Small spheres of fire appeared in the two girls' hands. The spheres were not very large but Li Wei could already feel the heat coming from them. They quickly raised their hands and tossed the Fireball towards the incoming Spiders.

However, they did not aim at the spiders but rather, at the strings linking the spiders to the roof. This way, they would burn the strings, causing the spiders to fall and take damage! The advantage was simply that instead of hurting only 2 spiders, they would be able to hit at least 6 of them. Although the spiders would take less damage from falling, considering the height, the total amount of damage dealt to all the spiders would be greater this way.

The Fireb.a.l.l.s were not stopped after burning the strings, they continued to fly until they hit the roof that was covered with spider webs. The spider web caught fire for a moment, but it quickly died down, leaving behind only some burn marks. The spider web was actually resistant to magic! Although players did not have access to Fire Magic yet as skills and could only use it through equipment, it would be disastrous if a simple fireball would burn the whole lair down. As a result, the web had magic resistance properties! They would burn for a moment but the magic would be quickly drained out; naturally, if a powerful level 40 fire mage came here to burn down the place, it would be a very simple task to him.

Having lost the connection between them and the roof, six spiders fell on the floor as "-12" appeared above their head. They were disoriented by the fall but they did not have time to react as they were attacked by Li Wei and Silent Day.

After fighting spiders for 20 minutes, the party already became quite skilled at dealing with these insects. They quickly noticed that the spiders had different fighting style and the one that just fell, were the one that relied heavily on their poison to deal damage.

Taking them out first was the best course of action. They had similar stats to the Forest Spiders and therefore, did not last long under Li Wei and Silent Day's combined attacks.

As for t.i.tan, he turned to face Alyssa. Compared to Lich Longsoul, Alyssa would not stay idle and someone needed to divert her attention.

Li Wei was fighting 2 spiders simultaneously, the two had small bodies and were green in color. They continuously spit out some poisonous liquid which Li Wei easily dodged using the Gliding Steps. However, he could not waste too much time on these spiders, there were more that were coming down the roof!

The 2 spiders were slowly retreating, moving towards the other spiders that just landed on the ground. Seeing so many enemies near each other, Li Wei activated his [Myriad Sword Dance]

Although more enemies meant more targets and more combos, it also meant that he would need to dodge or parry more attacks if he wanted to maintain his combo! Fortunately, he had the Gliding Steps which was a skill he could use in the middle of his combo without disrupting it! It was extremely useful to dodge or even reorientate his attacks to hit the enemies.

On the other side, Silent Day was easily dealing with 3 spiders at a time. It was both due to her skills but also thanks to the two buff from Bright Sun: [Strengthen] and [Haste] which gave her both strength and speed.

Silent Day hated insects, especially spiders. Although the game made them bigger and less disgusting, she still found them extremely repulsive and violently stabbed them whenever she could.

She jumped to the side to avoid a spider's spit and quickly activated [Flurry Stabs], taking out the remaining HP of one spider. When she looked at how the rest of the team was doing, she was surprised to see that Li Wei was dealing with more than 5 spiders at a time.

"Hmmp, he got stronger so quickly! I must not fall behind!" said Silent Day to herself. At the same time, she charged at the nearest spider.

Bright Sun was standing next to the mage, she was keeping a close look at everyone's status! It was her job both as a leader and as a priest to ensure proper coordination and keeping everyone healthy. Fortunately, it looked like everyone was familiar with each other and the fight was going smoothly.

Three out of the ten mob spiders were already dead. A fourth one quickly followed as the mage used her [Mana Burst] at the group of spiders.

Bright Sun quickly used [Heal] on t.i.tan who just blocked Alyssa's leg with his shield. The paladin was managing the aggro of the boss by himself!

There was only a difference of one level between the two, he was able to more or less hold his ground! Alyssa kept trying to bypa.s.s him to attack Bright Sun and the mage, but thanks to [Taunt], he managed to hold her attention.

Two minutes went by and all the mob spiders were lying dead, only Alyssa was still alive but she still had more than 90% of her HP.

Unfortunately, as Li Wei took down the last spider, he did not have any target left near him and could only end his combo. His HP bar was still quite full while he had half of his MP left.

Without hesitation, he quickly charged at Alyssa from the right.

"Let's go!"

Hearing that, Silent Day also reacted and used her spear to Attack Alyssa on the left. They timed their attacks perfectly to strike at the same time.

The Spider Queen was quickly overwhelmed, she violently swung her claw-like hands at t.i.tan's shield, while raising 2 of her 8 legs to use them as spears. The end of her legs was sharp, they scratched t.i.tan's shield, taking away the paint.

She fought back as much as she could but whenever she was about to spit some poison, the mage would intervene and cast a spell.

As her HP fell down to 75%, Alyssa let out a powerful high pitched scream! It was painful for the ears but it also had a powerful knockback effect like Howl. Li Wei was forced to take a few steps back as he heard the scream! Although he was already prepared for that, he could not help but want to protect his ears.

Fortunately, the scream did not last for long as the mage quickly cast [Mana Bolt] towards Alyssa, disrupting her skill. This was quickly followed up by [Mana Bind] to prevent her from climbing back to the roof!

The spell would not last for long, but it was enough for t.i.tan to intervene and get back the aggro. The fight continued as Alyssa was mercilessly attacked from all side. She had more HP than Lich Longsoul, but under the constant attacks, her HP bar quickly reached 50%

This time, she did not let out a scream but rather, her white eyes turned blood red. A slight glow appeared on her hands as she viciously attacked t.i.tan who was right in front of her. Immediately, the paladin felt the pressure on him double.

Alyssa's Strength Stat just obtained a serious boost and therefore, even if he correctly blocked the attacks, t.i.tan's health was still decreasing at a steady rate.

Fortunately, Bright Sun was ready and healed him up at the right moment.

Alyssa looked like she had lost her sanity, she did not even care anymore about being attacked by Li Wei and Silent Day. She viciously attacked t.i.tan, to the point where his HP already reached 60. It sounded like a lot but that also meant that he had lost more than 140 HP! More importantly, Bright Sun's [Heal] was not off cooldown yet.

The party already understood each other to some extent, t.i.tan activated [Bash]. Alyssa took a step back from being hit by the shield, but before she could scratch the shield again, Li Wei stepped up and used his 2 swords to parry her claw-like hands.

[Cling]

His hands trembled for a moment under the shock but Alyssa quickly pulled her hands back and once again tried to scratch him. He succeeded in gaining the aggro, but there was no way he would be able to last for long. Just parrying already took out 5 of his HP. However, he only needed to buy enough time for t.i.tan to drink a health potion.

Although he still had some HP, it was better to be safe and so, they opted for this strategy. Alyssa was fierce but with the help of Silent Day, they managed to pin her down.

10 seconds later, t.i.tan was back with 80% HP and once again took the aggro.

Another 30 seconds went by as Alyssa's Health finally reached 25%. It was the last phase! She moved her long legs to get some s.p.a.ce between her and her attackers and once again let out a scream. However, this time, her scream was not high-pitched, it was only loud!

And as she did that, another sound resonated through the Lair, "Crack crrkk"

In the nest of spider webs, the eggs started cracking! The greenish-white eggsh.e.l.ls were now covered with cracks! And a second later, a total of 3 spiders came out of the eggs. They were still covered with some viscous fluid but readily started moving their legs to move towards the party.

One might argue that they could have directly attacked the eggs when they entered the room to prevent this issue from popping up now. However, it would have made no difference! Simply because those spiders were explosive spiders and would deal damage as the eggs would explode. As for magic, the reason the nest was made of spider web was precisely to protect the eggs from magic! The best cla.s.s to deal with these eggs would be the ranger but unfortunately, none were present in this party.

They only had 10 HP but were extremely fast! As soon as they came out of the eggs, they rushed towards the group! Taking some damage would be inevitable!

The best thing to do in this situation was to bring the spiders away from the party. Li Wei and Silent Day quickly moved and attracted the 3 spiders in different directions. Silent Day attracted one of them while Li Wei took two.

The spiders exploded, releasing the viscous fluid everywhere. Fortunately, it was not poisonous but the liquid was still disgusting which caused Silent Day to let out a disgusted expression. She already hated spiders but for the sake of the team, agreed to take one explosion. In the end, she only lost 15 HP.

As for Li Wei, he lost 30 HP but he was still fairly healthy. With the explosive spiders dead, only Alyssa was remaining and she did not have any more tricks up her sleeves. Under the combined attack of the party, Alyssa ended up letting out a scream before closing her eyes forever!

[System prompt: Congratulation for completing the Time Attack: Alyssa's Lair. Your final time is 26:49]

The whole party let out a sigh of relief as they received the system prompt! 26:49 was an excellent time considering that it was their first try!

"This was a great run! Good job!" said Bright Sun.

"Ah, really disgusting! They should not have put this disgusting fluid!" complained Silent Day as she tried to remove the viscous fluid on her boots.

The mage giggled at the sight, "Don't worry, it will disappear as soon as we leave the Time Attack!"

"Really? Then what are we waiting for here? Let's go quickly!"

t.i.tan and Li Wei quietly looked at the 3 girls, "It does not really matter since we are coming back for a second run!" said Bright Sun.

"AH! Cai Die! I should have gone with the other group! Even if they have The One Hero is there, at least, there are no spiders at the Island of Desolation!"

Quickly, the party exited the Time Attack and re-entered it! Having already cleared it once, they became more confident and ran through the Lair.

Li Wei was constantly looking for any tricks or loopholes but unfortunately, he could not find any! When he asked about burning the spider webs, the mage quickly explained to him the mechanism behind that.

In the end, he remained pensive during the entire Time Attack, trying to find how the solo player actually managed to clear the lair so quickly!
