Chapter 812: Chapter 539, Grinding for Loyalty_2
[Fateweaver – Domina’s Loyalty towards you has increased by 2 points, current Loyalty is 95.]
Smack Smack Smack!!
Within the lord’s manor, a series of whip lashes and intermittent cries of pain from a woman could be heard.
[Fateweaver – Domina’s Loyalty towards you has increased by 2 points, current Loyalty is 98.]
…
“My lord, leader, I’ve successfully advanced to hero status,” Keith exclaimed excitedly.
But as soon as he said it, something felt a bit off.
The lord’s manor was indeed warm, but was it that hot?
Why were the two of them sweating so profusely, and why was his leader’s face so red, squirming in the chair?
ℕ○𝕧G○.c○
Were there nails on the chair?
Or was it an illness?
But the leader had become a hero, how could he fall sick so easily?
“Cough! Keith, congratulations on becoming a hero,” Fang Hao finally said, casually tossing the belt from the table aside.
“Thank you, my lord,” Keith immediately replied.
[Demon Spider Warrior – Keith (Level 2)].
Keith’s title hadn’t changed much; from a Spiderling warrior, he only became a Demon Spider Warrior.
It seems like what Domina said was true.
Spiderlings, even after becoming heroes, still follow the internal rules.
Warriors remain warriors; they cannot become leaders.
“Keith, how come you didn’t transform back into a human? If anything, your size has grown a lot,” Fang Hao commented, looking at the giant spider before him.
At the moment, Keith maintained his giant spider form, and his size had indeed increased significantly.
Keith scratched his head, “My lord, aside from our leader, when we become heroes, we cannot change into a human body.”
Well, ….
Fang Hao immediately checked Keith’s attributes.
[Demon Spider Warrior – Keith (Level 2)].
[Faction: Spiderling Shaman]
[Racial Traits: Living creature, Light Sensitivity, Chitinous Armor.]
[Legion Talent: Shaman Commander, Arachnid God Devotee.]
[Skills: Multiple Attack, Longsword Stride, Lethal Toxin.]
[Innate Skills: Advanced Combat Mastery, Advanced Stealth Mastery, Advanced Action Mastery.]
[Legion Talent: Shaman Commander, Arachnid God Devotee.]
[Skills: Multiple Attack, Longsword Stride, Lethal Toxin, Webbing, Venom Spray, Calamity Spell.]
[Innate Skills: Advanced Combat Mastery, Advanced Stealth Mastery, Advanced Magic Mastery, Advanced Action Mastery.]
(Description: Driven deep into dark territories by rejection from ‘Living creatures’, they became hermits and hunters, wandering alone or leading Giant Spiders near their lairs.)
Keith’s attributes were essentially a scaled-down version of Domina’s.
He lacked the Demon Spider’s spellcasting and dual form abilities.
Without the [Dual Form], not only could Keith not transform into a human shape, his spider form had grown in size as well.
Now, he resembled a colossal creature even more.
The spider’s abdomen, adorned with various bright spots, gave off an extremely dangerous vibe.
“Hmm, no problem, this state is quite good too,” Fang Hao consoled him, then continued, “Show me your weapon.”
“Oh, alright, my lord,” Keith produced his weapon and presented it to Fang Hao.
[Iron Knight’s Sword (Level 2)].
It was still the weapon that Fang Hao had distributed to the Webweaver camp before.
He had used it up to now.
Assessing Keith’s current size, Fang Hao asked, “Keith, now that you are a hero, I will reward you with a purple weapon. What type would you like?”
Having become a hero, Keith’s size had greatly increased.
The current sword, given his size, seemed to be inconvenient for him.
Upon hearing about the purple weapon, joy once again appeared on Keith’s face.
The Webweaver camp was very poor.
It was only after becoming affiliated with Fang Hao’s camp that the tribe had managed to replace their weapons with iron ones.
And as for a purple quality weapon, let alone himself, even Leader Domina didn’t have one.
Keith glanced at Domina discreetly, and seeing no expression on her face, he said, “My lord, if possible, I would like a spear.”
“That’s possible,” Fang Hao agreed and continued to call out to someone outside the door, “Go to the storage and bring a ‘Thunderblade Halberd’.”
The Bound Spirit Guardian standing outside the door quickly departed.
Upon returning, he held a golden halberd in his hand.
There is a difference between a halberd and a spear.
“`
But for those who are accustomed to using swords, a halberd should be even more manageable.
Fang Hao handed the Thunderblade Halberd to Keith and said, “It’s yours. Keep up the good work, and if you reach Blue Hero within a year, I’ll give you a set of purple armor.”
Keith, the first warrior of the Webbing Camp.
He took the war halberd with an excited face, his lips quivering.
This surprise was one wave after another, too thrilling.
“Thank you, sir, thank you, Leader,” Keith said, his spider body prostrate on the ground as he shouted loudly.
[The loyalty of Demon Spider Warrior – Keith towards you has increased by 20 points, current loyalty is 65.]
Before entering the Merit Training Ground, Keith’s loyalty had increased by 10 points.
Now, with an additional increase of 20 points, it only reached 65.
Fang Hao stroked his chin, looking at the male spider before him.
He pondered whether to try him out, wonder if he’s useful.
But looking at his swollen belly covered with colorful patterns, he thought better of it.
Best to increase it slowly.
…
After chatting with the two for a while,
the sound of hurried footsteps and maids’ laughter and banter came from outside the door.
It seemed that the maids in training had all returned.
Dozens of rabbits hopped into the hall.
When they saw the huge spider in the center with a colorful belly,
everyone was stunned, and two of them turned their heads and immediately burst into tears.
Now Keith was somewhat embarrassed, wanting to explain that he wasn’t a bad guy.
His slender legs barely took two steps forward when a group of maids fled in a swoosh.
Only Anjia and Eira remained.
Anjia glanced sideways towards Domina inside, “Domina, is this your son?”
Domina didn’t feel offended but seriously answered, “My kin, who came to participate in the Hero Trials. He’s now become a hero.”
“That was fast, quite impressive,” Anjia remarked with praise.
“Yes!”
Seeing that the group of rabbit maids were all standing outside, Domina and Keith decided not to stay any longer.
After expressing their gratitude to Fang Hao once more, they planned to leave.
Before they left, Fang Hao said, “Domina, come by again when you have time.”
Domina turned her head, immediately understanding Fang Hao’s meaning, and nodded, “Of course, sir,”
Domina’s loyalty had reached 98 points and no longer increased.
In the end, the two were dripping with sweat but had not resolved the last two points.
Fang Hao planned to look for another opportunity to examine the situation thoroughly next time; if not, he would simply gift some valuable items to raise those last two points.
After Domina left,
Eira and the others had dinner ready, and everyone ate.
Fang Hao enjoyed the attendants’ service in the hot springs after the meal.
…
Elsewhere.
In the Hall of Justice within Silver Wing City,
sat two men and a woman.
In the central position was the Leader of the Hall of Justice – Doelti.
The two people beside him were the Archbishop of the Church of Light – Milton, and the current President of the Mage Association – Grigorya.
Grigorya was a woman who looked to be about fifty.
Her fiery red hair was streaked with silver, and her sharp eyes revealed a stern and ill-tempered old lady.
Although time had taken her youthful beauty, one could tell she had been pretty in her youth.
Once the servants who brought the drinks had left,
Archbishop Milton was the first to speak, “Doelti, what’s the reason for calling us here?”
Grigorya too looked towards Doelti.
Doelti began, “The Dwarf war is over.”
Milton frowned, “It’s over? What’s the result?”
The Federation’s reinforcements hadn’t even moved, yet the conflict was already concluded.
Moreover, the Gold Eating Queen that had caused trouble for nearly a month had suddenly disappeared.
This caused all the city’s nobles to dare not leave the city, for fear that the Gold Eating Queen would suddenly appear to kill a few nobles for entertainment.
“Rune is dead, Bellerga has become the new leader of Gray Iron City,” Doelti stated calmly.
“What? How is that possible!”
Milton and Grigorya both exclaimed in shock, their faces revealing utter disbelief.
