Adventurer, did you revive today by watching the ads too?

"Holy crap, she spoke!" Miss Jin exclaimed, her eyes wide with surprise. "This savage is a monster!"

"What are you doing? Don't talk nonsense. If you don't understand, don't babble!"

Tia kept muttering to herself, but her face was beaming with joy.

"Hahahaha, it wasn't for nothing that Hua Zhen and I took turns with her all night! Although I'm exhausted, it was all worth it! As expected, I, Tia Ge, am the queen of training and education!"

"Huh?" Miss Jin was greatly shocked.

For a moment, she didn't know whether she should run away to avoid ending up like Karura, or bring Tia and Huazhen, these two criminals, to justice on the spot.

"You misunderstand, Miss Jin Jin," Hua Zhen corrected in time. "To be precise, we took turns practicing with Karula all night. We took a dictionary yesterday and kept teaching her how to speak. Sometimes Tia Ge gets too excited and speaks without thinking."

"Oh... I see. I thought this little guy had intellectual disabilities, but I didn't expect him to be able to talk!"

"Oh, by the way, let me introduce you." Hua Zhen pointed to Shiva, "This is her mother. In fact, Karula's current state is all because of her mother."

"Her mother forced her?" Miss Jin was taken aback. "You think before you speak, don't you?"

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 10 ...

"Please don't misunderstand, this is a statement. After all, Karula has lived with a hyena since she was a child, so it's inevitable that she would pick up animal habits. Have you ever seen Shiva discipline Karula? When she misbehaves, Shiva will grab her by the scruff of her neck and kick her hard..."

As Hua Zhen spoke, she couldn't help but think of the training session she had attended the previous night.

At first, attracted by the Daruo brand energy bars, Karula studied quite enthusiastically. Her brain development was quite good, and she learned things quickly. She could basically understand the meaning of words as soon as she remembered them.

However, as time went by and she gradually got full, Karula lost interest in learning to speak. If you tried to teach her, the little byd would bar her teeth and growl, giving off a "If you push me any further, I'll tear your anus apart" vibe, which startled Hua Zhen.

But at that very moment...

The king descended from the sky, his face contorted with rage and ferocity!

Shiva leaped from behind the bed with lightning speed, pinning Karula beneath him. His gray-black nose pressed against the back of Tia's head, biting her on the nape of her neck, before his hind legs kicked Karula violently.

This was the first time Hua Zhen had ever heard Karula let out a pitiful cry. Although the "cooing" sound was still not like a human's cry of pain, it could be imagined to be a cry of begging for mercy from a hyena pack.

Look, this is bloodline suppression.

Therefore, Hua Zhen's words are not without basis.

In the perilous wilderness, Karula's ability to grow to such a size is likely due not only to her special physique but also to the diligent teaching of her still-attractive mother, Shiva, day after day, year after year.

That's why Karula's wildness is so profound.

It's not entirely wrong to say that Shiva forced it.

But things are different now.

As a mother, I respect myself, and as a daughter, Karula listens to her mother.

In this way, controlling the mother is equivalent to controlling the daughter.

Therefore, Hua Zhen decided that from now on, between Tia Go and Karula, he should prioritize winning over Shiva.

Meimei has taken down the hyena mother...

"Hey, wait a minute."

Tia realized something was wrong at that moment.

"Something's not right, something's really not right, Huazhen. I asked you when Karula learned to say 'Mom,' but I clearly told her to call me 'Dear Old Father.'"

Tia stared at Hua Zhen with a suspicious expression.

"Huh?" Miss Jin was a little confused. "What do you mean? Weren't you two in the same teacher training program?"

"I'm in charge of the first half of the night, and Hua Zhen is in charge of the second half. Who knows what kind of nonsense this guy taught Karula?" Tia said.

"No, I don't like hearing that. Tia, are you implying that I taught Karula badly?" Hua Zhen glared back at her with disgust. "You really are the type to see everything as dirty. Tell me, is 'mother' such a dirty word?"

"Huh? No."

"Then let me ask you this: since you taught Carla to say 'father,' shouldn't you teach her how to address the other family members too? It's perfectly normal for me to teach her 'mother,' right?"

"Yeah, yeah..." Tia scratched her head, "The two of us, one as the father and the other as the mother... Hmm... that seems like a good idea, doesn't it? Good luck, baby's mom."

"Something's not right, is it?" Jin Jin frowned, as if she had noticed something was amiss.

Miss Jin Jin turned her gaze to Karula, who was still holding onto Hua Zhen's sleeve, and pointed at Tia Ge.

"Little cutie, what is she?"

"Dad... Dad?" Karula answered tentatively.

Although she didn't understand the full meaning of Jin Jin's words, Karula could roughly understand the other party's intention from the direction Jin Jin was pointing.

This was also the teaching method Hua Zhen and Tia Ge used last night: saying a word or phrase while pointing to something that word or phrase has a real-world meaning, thus helping Karula learn the language quickly.

"And what about yourself?"

Karula thought for a moment before realizing that the "you" in Jin Jin's sentence referred to herself.

So, Karula pointed to herself as well.

"I...I...am...Mom!"

"Huh?" Tia frowned, realizing that something was wrong.

"And what about him?" Miss Jin asked, pointing to Hua Zhen.

Hua Zhen broke out in a cold sweat.

He looked at Carula and shook his head almost imperceptibly.

No.

Now is not the time!

"Son...son!" Karula's eyes lit up. "Mommy, I'm hungry...for food!"

"Hua Zhen, I'm really going to mess with you!" Tia shouted menacingly, cracking her knuckles.

"Men who adopt little girls as their mothers deserve to be pelted with cement," Ms. Jin said with a sense of relief.

"Wait a minute, why are you two suddenly on the same side?" Hua Zhen took a step back. "Tia Ge, think about it carefully. I'm not suitable to be a mother. Although you're a woman, your appearance is passable, but your personality is like a super rooster. We three have to choose a gentle woman to be the mother and form a warm family!"

"You mean you don't see me as a woman?" Tia was furious. "Then what about all the perks I secretly give you? Fine, then I'll take your high standards and put them on me, I'll be the man!"

"No, that's not the point. Are you two married yet, and you're already assigning family roles?" Jin Jin said.

"Hungry... food." Karula was still tugging at Huazhen's sleeve.

Shiva, who had been obediently following the group, suddenly started barking wildly.

All three were taken aback, and Miss Jin quickly covered her bottom.

But upon closer inspection, something seemed off; Shiva wasn't coming for him.

A gentle breeze rustled the grass beside the stream, and the surrounding ruins were shrouded in greenery. The only source of light was the magic stone on the rock wall. After the argument stopped, the surroundings were deathly silent.

Everyone immediately became wary.

Hua Zhen knew very well that hyenas had a strong sense of smell; on the grasslands, they could even smell the stench of rotting corpses several kilometers away. Shiva's current state definitely indicated that he had smelled unfamiliar scents other than theirs.

Suddenly, a cluster of white, unidentified objects shot out from the bushes toward us, as if someone were crouching in the bushes firing a shot from the shadows, making it impossible to defend against.

Although Tia has the ability to stop time, she has to activate it actively.

But at that moment, a familiar spirit ring appeared.

At an extremely rapid pace, white bones began to condense around Miss Jin Jin, forming a three-meter radius circle centered on her. These enchanted bones blocked the unidentified flying object.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a large lump of white, viscous substance.

"Births even in underground labyrinths?" Tia exclaimed in surprise. "Why are so many of them being created?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be a Demon Spider." Miss Jin Jin warily looked around. "This is the spider silk it shoots out. Although it itself is not difficult to deal with, it will be troublesome once the spider silk gets on your body. It will quickly make you lose your ability to move. Be careful, they are hiding nearby."

"Did our commotion attract it here?" Hua Zhen asked.

"No, we weren't making any noise, and we weren't playing rock music. If it was the sound that attracted it, then other monsters would have followed the sound as well. It must have been following us for a while, patiently waiting for us to stop so it could launch an attack... The proof is that there's no web it wove here."

"How long have we been away from the platform?" Tia asked. "We should really clean up the monsters around here!"

"These monsters aren't without legs. They rest when they're tired and hunt when they're hungry, so it's unknown where they'll wander off to or when they'll appear," Jin Jin said irritably. "Sometimes, monsters from deeper levels will accidentally wander up to the upper levels. The platform can only guarantee that there are no monsters disturbing the interior most of the time."

"Now all we can do is find it and kill it."

Hua Zhen and Tia Ge stared hopefully at Miss Jin Jin.

"What are you two looking at? Am I your bodyguard?"

if not?

What do you want?

"Ahem, I mainly wanted to admire Miss Jin Jin's necromancy. Magic is everywhere, but necromancy is something you see only once in a lifetime."

Perhaps Hua Zhen's flattery hit the mark, for Jin Jin couldn't help but smile smugly.

"Never mind, the previous preparations were all for dealing with a crisis. Indeed, as you said, my necromancy is more profound than ordinary magic. For example, the soul ring I am casting now is not something I actively released, but rather it was the result of sensing something unusual and casting automatically."

"Wow, this is so intelligent?" Tia exclaimed in surprise.

"Hmph, it's all because I suffered a loss in the cemetery last time, when I was ambushed by your little savages and hyenas. I learned my lesson and improved the structure of the spell."

Miss Jin Jin gritted her teeth.

Her butt still hurts.

"Well said, so how do we find that spider now?" Hua Zhen asked.

"No problem."

Jin Jin snapped his fingers, and several small magic arrays immediately appeared on the ground.

A squad of skeletons emerged from within, wielding spears and wooden shields, their dark eye sockets glowing with eerie blue light.

"Aren't these the same ones we saw in the cemetery last time?" Tia asked.

"You mean my dad and uncle?" Jin Jin shook her finger. "I've settled them in a better place. They didn't come with me this time. I prepared these skeletons beforehand. They can be easily summoned from the underworld... I'll use them to scout ahead."

With that, the Skull Squad split up and began searching the surrounding environment.

It has a function somewhat similar to that of a scout soldier.

Carrying their spears, they searched everywhere. Before long, the spider hiding in the surrounding area had nowhere to hide. If it moved, it would expose itself, and if it hid in place, it would be discovered. So it launched an attack on the nearest skeleton.

A mouthful of viscous spider silk was spat out, instantly enveloping the skeleton's body, making it difficult to move, even to lift its hand. Moreover, the spider silk continued to spread along the skeleton's surface, and in about ten seconds, the skeleton would become a "cocoon".

But the spider didn't even last ten seconds before a giant spider, over two meters long, sprang out from the dense grass. Its compound eyes were blood-red, and its hairs and stinging hairs were so thick that they almost covered its entire massive body.

Its eight limbs worked together to rush to the skeleton at an extremely fast speed, pinned it down with its forelegs, and extended its sharp fangs and mandibles, tearing the skeleton apart in one bite.

"Ah, I've seen this thing in the Monster Compendium," Tia said excitedly. "Their eyes are their weak point, and they can also set things on fire!"

"The rest of you, get in there and stab it to death!"

The remaining skeletons showed no fear, rushing forward like puppets following orders, plunging their spears deep into the spider's body. The spears proved their advantage at this moment, and with each attack, white and red substances flowed from the spider's abdomen.

The spider let out a pitiful screech and fought back fiercely, but no matter how many times Miss Jin Jin's skeleton was scattered, it would reassemble and stand up again. After several rounds of attacks, the spider was quickly riddled with holes and died from exhaustion.

Miss Jin Jin hummed a song happily and ordered the skeleton soldiers to cut open the spider's abdomen. From the viscous spider silk inside, they dug out a small, sticky white ball, about half the size of a basketball.

"Haha, I've got my cool spider silk blanket!"

"What is this?" Tia asked curiously.

"This is the raw material for the spider silk made by the magic spider. In layman's terms, it is the raw material. This stuff is the best spider silk liquid produced in the body of the magic spider. It can be used to make a fabric that is even smoother than silk. Many high-end clothes are made with this stuff. Summer will be here in a few months. I plan to use it to make a quilt. It will be very comfortable to sleep on at night."

"Wow, wouldn't opening a spider farm be incredibly lucrative?" Hua Zhen's eyes lit up, sensing a business opportunity.

"Don't even think about it. Only the spiders in the underground labyrinth have the best quality spider silk. If you think you can run a breeding farm in this environment, then I have nothing to say," Jin Jin said happily, covering the silk in a cloth bag and putting it into her bag. "This is the material profit I told you about. If you sell it, a piece like this can sell for at least 500 Sola! Mutant species are even more valuable!"

Hua Zhen and Tia Ge looked serious.

Holy crap, is that how they make money?

If you kill six in one day, you can earn 3000 Sola!

I earn 3,000 a month but I'm miserable.

But earning 3,000 a day would make you smile from ear to ear, right?

Besides, this demonic spider doesn't seem too difficult to deal with!

A few skeletons can take care of it.

Look, I can just whip up a few Molotov cocktails with my bare hands and that's it.
