Spirit summons? I want to do it myself!
Chapter 397 Entering the Mountain (24)
The 'Commander' did not find anything unusual when he first led the spider group into the pocket formation. Although it was a little colder here than before, deep in the Hengduan Mountains, the terrain was complex and changeable, and the climate naturally had local anomalies. It was normal for the night to get colder as it got deeper, so he led the spider group forward.
However, as Lido and Fumei began to release icy breath to tie up the loose pocket, the cold air burst out all of a sudden, and Fumei's breath was naturally sensed by the spider group because she was so close.
The Commander immediately understood that it was the powerful two-legged beast and the elf who could only create ice fields that were causing trouble.
Although it didn't have a bird's eye view and couldn't see the big pocket formation, it knew very well that the other party must be setting a trap for the spider group.
As the spider with the strongest mental power in the group, it is also the most sensitive to the breath of elves. It senses that the breath of the elf is moving rapidly at a speed that it cannot understand, making the group of spiders that are restless because of the breath of the elf become confused and uneasy.
Although the enemy was setting a trap, it was obviously not yet complete. The "Commander" felt that this was a good time to catch the enemy off guard, so he immediately commanded the spider group to rush to a position a little ahead of the direction where they sensed the elf's breath, intending to intercept the two-legged beast.
It originally wanted to create a skirmish between the spider group and the two-legged beast, and change the battlefield from the enemy's camp to a mountain forest that the enemy was not familiar with. The 'commander' felt that his side had a greater advantage.
However, what it didn't expect was that this was indeed not a place that Lido was familiar with. However, the existence of mental detection allowed Lido to quickly become familiar with it. Moreover, when Lido had arranged the circle of ice armor before, she had already familiarized herself with the venue in advance.
On the other hand, the Commander and the spider group really knew nothing about this area.
Although spiders are theoretically better adapted to the environment and terrain of mountains and forests than humans, and should be able to move faster, they are nothing compared to Lido's mental detection and lightness skills!
Therefore, although the 'commander' had commanded the spider swarm to go directly in the direction of the movement of the elf's breath in advance, the movement speed of the spider swarm could not increase as it wished. It could only watch helplessly as the elf's breath quickly passed by a long distance in front of the spider swarm and went to the back of the spider swarm.
Then, a familiar icy aura erupted from the rear, just like the direction the elf had flown past before. The Commander had a bad feeling at that moment. The opponent's trap had finally been set right in front of it!
Of course, at this time it just felt it was a bit troublesome. After all, the spider group under its command gave it confidence. Intelligent creatures that think they are strong are often skilled and bold. At this time, the "commander" has not yet made up his mind to escape the trap at all costs.
However, it immediately led the swarm of spiders in the previous direction, because this was the closest position to the edge of the pocket formation, and it would be good to leave the trap earlier.
However, Lido had been paying attention to the movements of the spider swarm. In the small area covered by the pocket formation, if fine perception was not required, Lido could use the mental power of the electron energy level of true qi to perceive, and only needed to feedback the overall movement of the spider swarm. Therefore, the three-eyed demon soul spider swarm, which was good at mental power, did not notice Lido's surveillance at all.
The movements of the spider swarm were fed back to Lido in real time, so in the second round of icy breath, Lido and Fumei moved in the opposite direction, and strengthened the range of the ice field before the spider swarm arrived, especially paying special attention to the location where the spider swarm was about to arrive. Not only was it more than ten meters wider than other places, but the icy breath was also much stronger than other places.
Sensing a stronger icy aura erupting in front of him, the 'Commander' hesitated for a moment, and in the end did not continue to move forward in this direction, but changed direction and headed backwards to try to break through the blockade of the ice field.
But it was too late.
If the spiders had returned the same way as soon as they sensed Fumei's presence, Lido would not have been able to complete the action of tying the pocket.
If they returned by the same route, the spider swarm had already paved the way ahead, so they would be able to return quickly. Lido and Fumei would go along the edge of the pocket that had been arranged in advance, which was equivalent to going around in a big circle. They might not be able to seal the hole before the spider swarm, unless Lido sensed the movement of the spider swarm and intercepted them in advance.
However, in this case, the entire pocket formation cannot be formed and there are loopholes everywhere. If Lido wants to drive the spider group into the pocket formation and tie the pocket tightly, she has to chase and intercept them everywhere. It is absolutely impossible to be as calm as it is now, and Fumei will not have time to rest and recover.
Of course, there is no such thing as "if" in reality. The spider group did not make the right choice at the first time and had missed the only chance to escape.
Ordinary three-eyed demon soul spiders did not have much feeling about the ice field, but the remaining few "communication soldiers" had a deep impression of it. The tragic scenes of their fellow tribesmen who died in the ice field were deeply engraved in their hearts, making them very afraid of the ice field and instinctively resisting approaching it.
Now the 'Commander' ordered the spider swarm to advance towards the ice field. The 'Communicators' could not disobey the 'Commander's' order, but they all slowed down their pace.
The ordinary three-eyed demon soul spiders received instructions forwarded by the 'signal soldier', so their actions were naturally consistent with the 'signal soldier'. As a result, the overall speed of the spider group was instantly reduced by a large amount. The 'commander' was in the spider group and felt that something was wrong, but he could do nothing about it.
However, the consequence of the spider swarm being delayed was that before they reached the ice field at the edge of the pocket formation, Lido had already completed the second round of strengthening the ice field with Fumei.
For the third round of icy breath, Lido and Fumei released it from the air downwards. There was no need to follow the edge of the pocket completely. Of course, wherever the spider swarm moved, Lido and Fumei would rush in front to spray a wave and force the spider swarm back.
Moving in a straight line in the air is naturally much faster than crawling through trees, thorn bushes, and weeds on the ground, so Lido and Fumei always take the lead, and the spiders flee in panic after losing a few "spider lives".
So in the end, the entire spider colony was trapped in an encirclement formed by an ice field. Although the spider colony was still intact, the "Commander" really felt bad at this time!
There was no way to escape, and the enemy bipeds and elves did not appear in front of the spider group at all, which made it feel deeply powerless and regretful. Is this the difference in intelligence between monsters and bipeds?
