Chapter 301: Cultivation
Spikedel survived thanks to one person, and that was Krees, the former butler of Wickburg.
In the original Sanctuary that surrounded and suppressed the human-faced spiders in the Sanctuary, the master of Fort Wico, Count Delaculral, was also one of them. It's just that the purpose of his encirclement and suppression of the human-faced spider at that time was not to obtain a human-faced spider as a pet, but to find the blood for the vampire demon bat to continue its evolution.
In those troubled times, there was a vampire bat that became extremely powerful because he sucked a Chimera. The vampire bat's terrifying evolutionary ability has caused panic among other races. In order to deal with the vampire demon bat, which claims to be the most powerful vampire bat in history, countless races have united and sent dozens of sanctuaries to destroy that terrifying monster at the same time.
Recognizing the threat posed by the vampire bats, the race has also become the target of public criticism. In order to eliminate the vampire demon bats, a race that may bring destruction to all races, the other races are either booby-trapped, or plotted, or forcibly exterminated, and the remaining vampire demon bats will soon be wiped out.
Krees, who has been sheltered in Fort Wico since he was a child, is one of the few survivors of the Vampire Bat Clan. The vampire demon bat was originally a pet raised by the blood clan, but the vampire demon bat that became extremely terrifying after sucking the Chimera attracted too many enemies, so that the blood clan, known as one of the three major races in the continent, did not dare to protect them openly.
Especially when the dragon clan and the elven clan, which are also the three major races in the mainland, also joined the camp of denouncing the vampire demon bats, Count Delaculal, who had just taken over as the patriarch of the blood clan, simply closed the blood castle in order to preserve his strength, and chose to turn a blind eye to the actions of the various races to exterminate the vampire demon bats.
After the vigorous extermination operation, although it was suspected that there were still vampire bats in Wicoburg, after the blood clan had already confessed, even the dragons and elves did not want to go too far, and after confirming that all the vampire bats outside Wicoburg had been eliminated, they chose to stop when they saw that they were good.
Without the support of the dragons and elves, the other races also lost the courage to continue to exterminate the vampire demon bats, which would mean a complete war with the bloods, and no race dared to underestimate the strength of the bloods.
Not to mention that at that time, everyone could see that the anger of the blood clan had been suppressed to an extreme, and if any race did not open their eyes to touch this mold, the blood clan that had always remained neutral in the war of all races was very likely to join the war.
No matter which side the Bloodline chooses to join, there is always a danger that the Bloodline's opponent will be wiped out. After all, the dragons, elves, and blood clans, which are known as the three major races in the continent, have the strength to wipe out all the other races when they unite.
At that time, Krees, who had become a confidant of the Count of Delacoural, could only watch his people being exterminated one by one under the strict orders of the Earl, and there was nothing he could do.
Afterwards, in order to appease this loyal subordinate, Count Delacoural disguised himself as a human and went in and out of various battlefields of the Great War of All Races, obtaining the blood of many rare species for him to complete his flesh and blood evolution.
During the operation to encircle and suppress the human-faced spider in the Sanctuary Realm, Lord Earl, who had been hiding his identity, quietly collected a spider egg without anyone else noticing. As the others calculated against each other, the spider egg that Draculal had collected became the sole survivor.
After Count Delacoural returned to Wickburg, he gave the spider egg to Krees, and instructed him to wait for the Human-Faced Spider to hatch and suck its flesh and blood, so that he would probably gain all the abilities of the Human-Faced Spider, whether it was toxins or magical abilities, or spinning silk, even the hard armor of the Human-Faced Spider could make up for his shortcomings for Krees, and it would greatly improve him.
Count Delacoural's meticulous cultivation of Krees made him grateful, and he was even more dedicated to the task assigned by the Count. Soon he climbed to the position of steward of Wickburg and became the number two man in the entire castle.
Originally, everything was going well, and if this trajectory continued, Krees would become the most powerful assistant and the most perfect link in Count Delacoural's plan to dominate the continent.
However, everything changed when the human-faced spider eggs that the Earl had given him hatched.
Under Krees's careful care, after thirty years of hatching, this precious spider egg was finally hatched. The continent's last human-faced spider was favored by the heavens, and was born with the appearance of a mature human beauty and an astonishing talent for magic.
As we all know, the closer the "human face" is to a human when it hatches, the higher its talent, and this human-faced spider with a mature and beautiful appearance as soon as it hatches is unique in the entire history of the Arian continent.
It's not about whether or not it has to do with the annihilation of an entire race, but this little guy born with the curse and hope of the human-faced spider clan is a natural dark magic spell controller. According to Count Draculal's estimates, this little guy was born with the strength of a level 10 magician.
The Earl originally planned to let Krees suck the spider eggs as soon as they hatched, but he didn't expect the newly born human-faced spider to have such a high talent, which made the Count a little reluctant, at least wait for her to grow up before sucking, so that it would be more in his interests.
As a result, the last remaining human-faced spider was named Spadel by Count Delaculal, which means "God of Spiders". Perhaps, in the Earl's subconscious, he hoped that Spridel would one day become the most powerful spider on the continent of Eliad.
With a simple plan for Speedel's future, Lord Earl focused all his energy on the coming war, which he had been planning to dominate the continent ever since Count Delacoural succeeded the Blood Patriarch.
Now that this plan has been perfected and will soon enter the implementation stage, he does not have much energy to focus on taking care of Wickeborg, but is obsessed with reorganizing the blood army, preparing to embark on the journey of dominating the continent at the most opportune time.
In the days when the Earl left Wickburg, he was relieved to leave everything to Krees, and under his careful training, Krees has grown into an excellent talent who can stand alone. Krees's personal strength had also reached the peak of the twelfth level after absorbing the flesh and blood of various rare demonic beasts prepared for him by the Earl, becoming the second only existence in the entire blood clan after the Earl.
Krees was only one chance away from advancing to the Sanctuary, such as sucking a human-faced spider......
The Earl had even been prepared for a long time, and once the Bloods officially entered the war, Krees would be his most competent lieutenant, and he would leave the important work of logistics supply to Krees.
Of course, before the Bloodlines officially enter the war, there is still a lot of work to be done by Krees. Naturally, the responsibility of raising and teaching Spadel fell back to Krees.
All this was precisely the beginning of Spicer's tragedy.
