Chapter 808: Chapter 537, Arachnid Warrior – Keith_2
“Understood, my lord, I’ll take care of these matters,” Stella said.
Then, she gave a couple of commands to a nearby troll.
Soon, a group of trolls came over and began moving all the items that had been made to the warehouse.
As for the newly added miner skeletons,
a team needed to be assembled to take these skeletons to the mining tunnels in the Blood Mountain Range.
After all, the Blood Mountain Range was not that easy to traverse.
“Alright, I’ll leave this place to you, I have to go to another location,” Fang Hao said.
“I will handle the tasks you’ve given me,” Stella bowed slightly again.
But her towering stature seemed more like she was looking down on Fang Hao.

“Don’t forget to train, Tier 8.”
After speaking, he released the teleportation screen and stepped into it.
When the screen shattered,
Stella finally raised her head.
She took a slow breath and immediately said to a troll nearby, “Please summon the ‘Wall Commander’ here, and tell him I need some training guidance.”
“Yes, Clan Leader.”
…
The next stop of the teleportation screen was Frostwind City in the Frostwind Mountain Range.
They had also recruited enough dwarf miners to carry out the excavation of the mines.
After leaving Frostwind City,
Fang Hao then went to the Webweaver camp that held the Mithril Mine.
As soon as he appeared, there was a rustling noise around his ears.
Upon opening his eyes, he found himself in a huge house woven from white spider webs.
Upon the webs, basin-sized, patterned spiders incessantly crawled about.
The entire Webweaver camp was wrapped layer by layer in spider silk.
The sun shone through the silk, casting a faint light.
Fang Hao stepped out and saw a [Spider Warrior], with a spider’s body, passing by nearby.
Seeing Fang Hao and Demitrija suddenly appear, the warrior instinctively reached for his blade.
Fang Hao said, “I am Fang Hao. Where is Domina?”
Fang Hao?
A look of confusion appeared in the Spider Warrior’s eyes.
But he knew his leader was Domina, so he immediately said warily, “Don’t move, I’ll call for the leader.”
With that said, he had a Spiderling soldier keep an eye on Fang Hao and went to find someone.
Before long, the spider-form Domina arrived with a few Spiderlings.
When she saw Fang Hao, a smile of joy appeared on her normally expressionless face.
“My lord,” Domina descended from the web canopy above, transforming into human form in mid-air.
Nearly two meters tall, with black chitin encasing her slender legs and hips, extending to the upper body, which covered most of her ample chest.
The four pairs of spider legs on her back still reflected a dangerous black sheen.
“Mm, Domina, it’s been a while,” Fang Hao said.
“Please come inside, my lord,” Domina greeted warmly.
She led Fang Hao into a suspended spider nest, where three plump spiders crawled beneath Domina and Fang Hao, along with Demitrija.
Domina settled herself directly onto the belly of one of the spiders.
She then gestured for them to sit and talk.
Fang Hao looked at the colorful bellies of the spiders and took out two chairs from his storage space, giving one to Demitrija.
“My lord, what instructions do you have for me this time?”
Clearly, Domina was quite happy with Fang Hao’s visit.
“Domina, how’s the mining going lately?” Fang Hao began.
Domina said, “The mining operation in the Mithril Mine is going well. The human slaves we acquired recently have filled the gap left by the Gnolls and increased the mining progress more than before.”
Human slaves.
Referring to those bandits from the Life-taker camp.
A large number had been captured at the time. Fang Hao felt it a pity to kill them, so he had Lan Yang escort them here to fill the gap left by the Gnolls.
Those bandits had been plundering villages, slaying and selling both men and women ruthlessly.
They did not deserve pity.
After thinking for a bit, Fang Hao also said, “In the next few days, I’ll send over a batch of skeleton miners. You make sure they join the mining operations as well.”
“Understood, my lord.”
After a simple exchange, the arrangements were made.
“Hmm, do you need anything else here?” Fang Hao asked.
Thinking for a moment, Domina said, “I would like some warm clothing, and also, one of the Spider Warriors has reached Tier 10 and needs to undergo the Hero Trials at your place.”
“Already?” Fang Hao was a bit surprised.
He remembered that the last time a Tier 10 Domina herself had gone to the main city for the Hero Trials.
So quickly, another spider-form hero had emerged.
At the Bronze Bull’s place, several who had been Tier 8 before were now only at Tier 9.
“Yes, my lord, under your protection, the Webweaver camp has welcomed peace and development. Our people now have a stable life, and many children are striving to improve themselves,” Domina said gratefully.
Fang Hao had indeed made the Webweaver camp increasingly better.
“There’s no issue with that. Let the residents of the Webweaver camp focus on improving themselves with peace of mind. I will bear all the costs needed to advance to hero,” Fang Hao said with a smile.
“I am really thankful to you, my lord.”
[Fateweaver – Domina’s loyalty to you has increased by 2 points, current loyalty is 86.]
Well, that’s a mediocre level of loyalty.
I have indeed had less contact with Domina recently.
There hasn’t been a chance to increase loyalty.
“Domina, is there someone in the camp who is about to become a hero? Perhaps we could go directly there for the advancement,” Fang Hao thought of using teleportation to return to the city directly.
However, Domina shook her head, “My lord, he is in charge of guarding the Mithril Mine today.”
“Well, take me to see the Mithril Mine then, I also need to make some tools.”
“Certainly, my lord.”
The three of them left the Webweaver camp and mounted the Bone Dragon.
They flew straight to the Mithril Mine.
…
The once empty Mithril Mine.
Now had a village built outside of it.
A wooden fence surrounded it, and there were Spiderling archers and Spider Warriors in cotton armor guarding the walls.
The Bone Dragon landed in the center of the village.
From a distance, Fang Hao could see several human-sized cocoons, hanging upside down from a tree.
The exposed heads confirmed that these people were still alive.
“What are these…?” Fang Hao questioned.
Domina explained, “Those who fight and cause trouble get hung up here to starve for a few days. Those who attempt to escape are taken away to be fed to the Queen Giant Spider.”
“Hmm,” Fang Hao didn’t say much more.
He didn’t think these bandits deserved much pity after being starved for a few days.
With Domina’s introduction, Fang Hao met the Spider Warrior.
[Spider Warrior – Keith (Tier 10)].
He had indeed reached Tier 10, although the name, Keith, sounded like “chicken strips.”
Well, it was at least easy to remember.
“I’ve seen the great lord,” Keith immediately saluted.
Keith was younger than expected, but his rank had risen swiftly.
Given Keith’s rate of promotion, he might replace Domina’s position in the future and become the new leader of the Webweaver camp.
But in the Spiderlings’ race, Domina had a special status.
Back then, she wasn’t called a Spider Warrior or Spider Archer.
She was known as The Spider Fateweaver – Domina.
If one were to understand it in human society’s terms, it would be equivalent to a noble bloodline.
“Yes, very good. In a few days, let Domina take you to the main city for the hero trial,” Fang Hao said with a smile.
[Spider Warrior – Keith’s loyalty to you has increased by 5 points, current loyalty is 55.]
The loyalty isn’t high.
That’s not surprising.
Spiderlings are loyal to Domina, not to me.
Fang Hao had signed a contract with Domina to control the Spiderlings by supporting her as their leader.
“Thank you, my lord.”
Fang Hao patted his shoulder lightly.
Then he made a large number of mine drafts, tracks, and carts in the village.
He instructed them to handle everything and install these devices.
After arranging everything, Fang Hao cast teleportation to return to the main city.
By the time he got back, it was already getting late.
Eira had dinner ready, and Fang Hao listened to Anjia’s chirpy recount of her day’s amusing events while eating.
After dinner, they all soaked in the hot springs together.
Then they returned to their rooms to rest.
…
Two days passed in a blink.
In those two days, Fang Hao used the teleportation screen to visit several cities in his territory with mines.
He recruited Dwarven miners and replaced all the existing living creatures working as miners.
Of course, those replaced did not include the bandits and people who had committed many crimes and were sent to the mines as punishment.
Those individuals would spend the remainder of their lives in the dark and vile mine.
Today, Fang Hao had just finished washing his face.
He then heard the prompt for a private message.
When he opened it, it was from Zhang Bin.
“Boss, a small merchant caravan has arrived here. They brought some construct parts and blueprints, and I think we can find a chain quest for constructs,” Zhang Bin said.
