Savior Simulator

While the spider swarm had not yet broken through the defense line formed by the sand golem, Ma Yun did not hesitate to spend expensive diamond powder as a casting material for her teammates in the adventure team except for the scarecrow, tin man, sand golem, mechanical dog and other constructed creatures. Including herself, she blessed the 4-level "Stone Skin Technique" one by one.

Gao Fei looked at his palms.

After applying the "Stone Skin Technique", his skin took on a bluish-gray rock texture and was slightly glowing. For a period of time, he was given 10/adamantine damage-reducing armor.

The poisonous spider swarm as a whole has a base bite damage of 2dbuff.

The blessing of "Tree Dragon" Fabion gave Gao Fei and others an advantage in saving throws against toxins. The "Stoneskin Technique" could offset most of the physical damage caused by the spider swarm, temporarily resolving the crisis.

But it's not time to breathe a sigh of relief yet.

In the "Shelter Cabin", Ares noticed the change in the situation on the battlefield, frowned slightly, raised his silver scepter, and pointed at the small group of poisonous spiders closest to him.

A circle of golden light radiated from the head of the staff.

Among the poisonous spiders that were irradiated by the magic power, 12 of them suddenly expanded their bodies. In the blink of an eye, they grew from three inches in length to as big as a round table. Counting their eight long legs, they were no less than ten feet from head to tail. Their size was comparable to that of a giant spider. spider!

Seeing this scene, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng turned to look at Ma Yun.

"It seems to be the fourth-level 'Giant Insect Technique'..." Xiao Ma's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he tried his best to identify the spell. "This magic can temporarily increase the size of ordinary insects. Specifically, how many insects can be changed in size? How big it is and how long it lasts are closely related to the casting level!”

Ma Yun hurriedly wiped away the cold sweat and continued:

"Ares channeled the magic power in the scepter and turned 12 ultra-miniature poisonous spiders into large spiders in one breath. It can be seen that his spellcasting level is level 12--"

"Wait! Miss Mage, I remember the prisoner told me before that Ares is a level 8 warlock. Is he lying?" Scarecrow asked in surprise.

"I saw no sign of lying." The Tin Woodman shook his head slightly.

As the "arbiter", what he is best at is discerning whether a person is telling the truth.

"The prisoner didn't lie. Ares is indeed an 8th level warlock, but he also mastered a specialty called 'Skilled Spellcaster', which increases his spellcasting level by 4 additional levels. This makes sense."

Gao Fei used the astrolabe to investigate Ares and found that this guy had nearly 200 health points, and his attributes were: Strength 20, Agility 16, Constitution 24, Intelligence 15, Perception 16, and Charisma 28.

Among them, two attributes, physical fitness and charm, have been strengthened by "Bear's Tenacity" and "Eagle's Majesty", each with +6 points.

In addition to the common talents of spider elves, Ares has also mastered the expertise of "Iron Will", "Skilled Spellcaster", "Spell Counterattack", "Spell Expansion", "Spell Shaping" and "Spell Silence".

Especially after seeing the "silence spell", Gao Fei had to give up the idea of ​​adding a "silence spell" to the pistol bullets.

As for what spells Ares is good at?

Astrolabe provides no detailed information.

Gao Fei can try to use the "Spell Thief's" professional ability "Eye of Insight" to check Ares's spell list. Unfortunately, the distance between the two parties is too far, and the "refuge hut" blocks it, so it is not yet possible to spy.

"The enemy just has 12 more giant spiders. There is nothing to worry about."

Jiang Feng held both guns and reassured his companions to stay calm.

"Sister Feng, you are wrong to think so!" Ma Yun's face was stern, "After ordinary poisonous spiders are enlarged by the 'Giant Insect Technique', they look similar to giant spiders, but their combat power is much stronger than giant spiders. If you If you don’t believe it, use the astrolabe to check the data of the 12 big spiders, and you will know how big the gap is!”

Jiang Feng hurriedly opened the astrolabe and inspected the 12 spiders that were enlarged by Ares's spell. His expression suddenly changed.

Each of the spider clusters summoned by Ares is very weak individually. They are ultra-micro insects with only a pitiful 2 points of health. Their attributes are: strength 1, agility 17, constitution 10, and intelligence. 1, Perception 13, Charisma 4.

The challenge level of these ordinary poisonous spiders is almost zero. The basic damage die of the bite is 1d1. To put it bluntly, it can only cause 1 point of damage. As for the additional poisoning effects, for larger creatures like humans, it can only take two or three bites. , is not enough to cause serious poisoning.

Tiny poisonous spiders only pose a real lethal threat when they are in swarm form, with hundreds or thousands of them united.

However, when these 12 ultra-miniature poisonous spiders broke away from the cluster and were subjected to the fourth level of "Giant Insect Technique" by Ares, they immediately underwent a transformation like a rebirth!

According to the principle of "Giant Insect Technique", with the blessing of magic power, every time the insect subject to the technique increases in size, the following changes will occur:

Strength +4, Constitution +2;

Creature level (Hit Dice/HD) and natural armor +2;

The base damage die for natural weapons varies with size.

There are five body types in total, ranging from "ultra-micro" to "large", with "micro", "extra-small", "small" and "medium" in between.

Calculate the gain rules of "Giant Insect Technique" and you will know that from a "super micro spider" to a "large spider", the life dice (HD) +10, strength +20, constitution +10, natural defense + 10. The base damage die for natural weapons becomes 2d6.

12 giant spiders catalyzed by magic, the challenge level increased from 0 to 4, with 115 HP, defense level 22 (agility +3, natural +10, size -1), and various attributes: strength 21, agility 17, constitution 20, intelligence 1, perception 13, charm 4!

Compare it with the naturally generated giant spiders, which have a challenge level of only 1, less than 30 HP, defense level 14, and six attributes: strength 15, agility 17, constitution 12, intelligence 1, perception 13, charm 4.

After the comparison, the conclusion is obvious.

As Ma Yun said, the spiders catalyzed by "Giant Insect Technique" are similar in size and appearance to ordinary giant spiders, but they are not monsters of the same level at all. The former's strength is closer to phase spiders and super-large female spiders!

Xiao Ma looked around, and his face was full of worry.

The quicksand form of the sand golem was already struggling to resist the invasion of the swarm of poisonous spiders. Now there were 12 giant spiders with combat power comparable to that of ogres. How could they fight this battle?

"Brother Fei! Sister Feng! Think of a way!" Ma Yun asked for help from her teammates through the star disk.

"Take your time to think of a way. The most important thing now is to fly!" Jiang Feng said anxiously, "Only by flying into the air can we get rid of the spider siege."
