Dawn Spider

Chapter 9-Awakening
The master of Sikui Mountain gave Jin and Shisan a large piece of fish.

After all, the two brothers were still sub-adults, and it took a lot of effort to move them back to the cave.

The meat of the evil fish tastes completely different from the ordinary fish meat I have eaten before.

After eating it, I woke up from a nap feeling refreshed and full of energy. It really has the effect of strengthening my physical fitness.

...

The Lord of Sikui Mountain went down the mountain to look for fog beads. He was a mountain master-level flame spider warrior, assisted by powerful mental power, which was more efficient and accurate than radar. He would scan with his mental power wherever he passed by, and as long as there were fog beads, he would not miss any of them, completely cutting off the thoughts of ordinary flame spiders.

Jin and Shisan stood on the top of the mountain and watched the whole process, worried all day long, fearing that it would notice the spider silk bag on the tin-leaf vine flower spike and then pay attention to the God-given seeds protected inside.

But fortunately, Lord Sikui Mountain's attention was all on the mist beads falling to the ground. His mental power was scanning the ground, and he didn't pay any attention to anything above.

Once you get over this hurdle, there will be no other problems.

Jin and Shisan lived peacefully in the mountains, eating, drinking, sleeping and strolling around every day.

...

Time flies, eight days have passed,

At night, the prey brought back by the Lord of Sikui Mountain suddenly changed. They were packed in large bags of spider silk. When they were opened, they contained all kinds of rainforest animals, mostly common birds, insects, snakes, and beasts, but their bodies were abnormally huge.

——Evil spirit!
——Old Spider Sikui has finally started hunting down the evil spirits left behind by the fog tide!

——Tonight’s food is evil spirit meat!
The news spread through the forest at the speed of light, and tens of thousands of flame spiders rushed up the mountain. They started lining up early before the sun set.

Jin and Shisan kept a low profile and followed the queue obediently. However, when it was their turn, the Lord of Sikui Mountain swung his claws and hit a vicious spirit that had mutated from a locust with its hind legs, which were thicker than chicken legs!

The feeling of superiority only lasted one day.

At dusk the next day, the Lord of Sikui Mountain returned from the forest. The bulging oversized spider silk bags on his back were piled up like a hill. When he opened them one by one, all kinds of evil spirits appeared inside.

The food tonight was unprecedentedly generous, and the Lord of Sikui Mountain was not stingy, so each flame spider could get a large piece.

A night of extravagance.

The full-fed flame spiders were in no hurry to return to their nests. They would either climb up and down the trunks of the Silk Sunflower God-given trees to vent their overflowing energy, or gather in groups of three or five to chat and talk, and would not disperse until dawn.

Jin and Shisan joined in the fun and learned from the knowledgeable old spider that the fog tide covered the entire island and that the mutated evil spirits would prey on other animals on the island. If left unchecked, it would inevitably lead to an imbalance in the island's natural ecology and turn into an ecological disaster.

According to past experience, after the fog tide, all the Zerg fighters on the island will take action and carry out a joint clearing operation lasting two to three months.

This also means that such good days can last for two or three months.

Sure enough, in the following time, the Lord of Sikui Mountain did nothing but go in and out of the rainforest, hunt evil spirits, and have extra meals every night.

One month later,
Jin and Shisan completed a transformation and growth one after another.

Thirteen's foot span is about two centimeters larger than Jin's, but Jin guessed that it was probably also 13 years old.

Jin's body shape had changed slightly due to his lightning-type mutation. His legs were thicker than Thirteen's, his carapace was wider, and his tail and abdomen were rounder. Overall, his body was rounder and thicker than that of a typical Flame Spider.

Jin's leg span has reached about twelve or thirteen centimeters, and his strength has increased significantly.

The two brothers had been thinking about the seeds given by the God of Tin Leaf Vine. After more than a month of clearing, the jungle around the mountain should be safe. According to the plan, they took action at dusk and brought a raw stone down the mountain.

After more than a month, the banyan tree whose crown was burned has sprouted a large number of new branches and leaves, and the tin-leaf vine climbing on it is growing well.

The spider silk bag on the flower spike was still intact. After peeling off the spider silk that bound it, the God-given fruit inside had grown to the size of a pea, with many fine white lines on its surface.

The inherited memory of the Zerg shows that this is a Force vein, which is used to assist in the absorption and transformation of natural Force.

Jin and Shisan divided the work, one holding the raw stone and the other scratching it, taking turns. It took some time before they could use up a raw stone.

The effect was immediate. After absorbing sufficient Force, the Force patterns on the surface of the God-given fruit became bright and shiny.

"Fourth brother, the effect of the raw stone is very powerful!"

"It's a must." "There are only two original stones left, and five mist beads. Do you want to exchange some with the Lord of Sikui Mountain?"

"Need not."

Jin explained, "The fruit has already set firmly and will be ripe for harvest in about three months. However, we are only 13 years old now. Even if we have recently eaten the flesh of a fierce spirit, which has accelerated our growth, we will only be 15 years old at most in three months, right? We are still one year away from the 16th year, when we will reach adulthood."

"Yes."

Thirteen echoed, "Even at the age of sixteen, it's not certain that one will awaken. Without awakening, there's no use for the God-given seed."

"So there's no rush."

Jin ordered them to pack up and return to the mountain.

Three days apart,

The two brothers took another rough stone down the mountain to check it out before using the next one.

Three days later,
The two brothers went down the mountain and used up the last rough stone.

The Force veins on the surface of the God-given fruit grew three times thicker, and began to branch out like ice crystal cracks. This meant that the fruit had entered a new stage of growth.

...

Jin and Shisan became even more low-key. They ate, drank, and slept every day, and late at night they would almost always stay in their cave nest, motionless.

Every four or five days, he would secretly go down the mountain to check the growth progress of the divinely gifted fruit of the tin-leaf vine and re-glue and tie the spider silk bags to reinforce them to prevent them from falling off due to strong winds and heavy rains.

...

Time flies and another month has passed.

evening,

After Jin and Shisan had eaten and drunk their fill, they decided to go out for a walk and go to the back mountain to see if the Schima superba seeds planted by the owner of Sikui Mountain had bloomed.

You can't just eat and drink for free all day, you should also take care of things. If the flowers bloom, you should promptly remind the master of Sikui Mountain and use the original stone to replenish the original force. This will not only reduce the burden on the plants, but also shorten the flowering period, increase the fruit setting rate, and increase production and income...

After the discussion, Jin stood up and took a few steps when he suddenly felt unwell all over.

Jin stopped and stood there in a daze. The discomfort quickly developed into weakness in his spider legs and a dizzy head.

"Fourth brother? What's wrong?"

Thirteen questions followed behind him.

"Something's wrong...food poisoning?"

Jin turned around, looked at the evil spirit flesh wrapped in spider silk, and then looked at Thirteen.

The food is fine.

We were eating together, and Thirteen was still full of energy.

Jin suddenly thought of a possibility: Is he about to awaken?
The symptoms are almost identical to the Zerg Force Awakening described in the inherited memory.
"Thirteen! I might be about to awaken, the Force Awakens. You stay at the entrance of the cave, don't disturb me!"

Jin turned around and crawled back into the nest.

"Awakening? The Force Awakens?"

Thirteen was shocked, "Fourth brother, aren't you only 13 years old? You're underage..."

"It's probably due to the lightning mutation. Also, I've been eating too much evil spirit meat lately."

Jin raised his claws and pushed Thirteen, who was following him into the nest, out, then closed the door.

He lay quietly, appreciating his own condition, and fell asleep unknowingly.
