- The Reincarnation World Where Only I Know the Storyline
- RWWOKS Chapter 145
Following Karin’s directions, the group quickly reached the outskirts of the spider trap.
Seeing the white spider silk on the tree branches and trunks, several of them exchanged amused glances. A long-haired man, around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, stepped forward.
Biting his thumb, he smeared the fresh blood onto the palm of his left hand.
After forming a few seals, he pressed his hand forcefully against the ground. “Summoning beasts aren’t exclusive to you.”
Summoning Jutsu!
As the white smoke cleared, a saber-toothed tiger about five meters tall appeared, its majestic presence instantly boosting everyone’s sense of security.
After confirming with the sensory-type ninja that there were no ambushes nearby, they boldly stepped into the forest ahead.
Soon, the Hidden Grass team spotted their enemies—two men, one woman, and a strikingly beautiful half-human, half-spider creature.
Confident in their overwhelming numbers, one of the Hidden Grass members drew a kunai, pointing it at the enemies. In a cold tone, he said, “Show me your scroll. If you cooperate, maybe I’ll let you live.”
With their superior numbers, the enemy should have been more sensible, but they soon realized that the trio didn’t even take them seriously.
Especially the man sitting on the ground—his gaze toward them was filled with disdain.
“What’s going on?”
“Why is he looking down on us?!”
The Grass Village examinees didn’t quite understand, but they knew one thing for sure: the three before them had no intention of cooperating.
“Then let’s get this over with.”
At the command, the saber-toothed tiger charged toward the enemies, but as it moved, it found that the surrounding tree trunks were crawling with countless hidden spiders.
The saber-toothed tiger was soon entangled in webs, its movements becoming sluggish. It clearly wasn’t enjoying the ghost spiders’ welcome.
Golden ripples slowly appeared, and a beautifully crafted Western-style greatsword sliced through the night sky, striking precisely on the tiger’s head.
[Your treasure inflicted 25 damage on the saber-toothed tiger]
The attack was sharp, but the damage wasn’t impressive, prompting Fang Bo to consider increasing his strength attribute.
“If I could push my strength into the twenties, the damage would look much better.”
If he could get some suitable equipment and boost his strength beyond thirty, his threat to enemies would be much greater.
Fang Bo noted the idea in his mind, pulled out his Dragoon, and after a slight aim, fired a shot.
To his surprise, the enemy blocked the bullet with a kunai, looking quite at ease while doing so.
This proved that the Grass Village members weren’t complete pushovers, at least not their leader, who had decent skill.
[Yuki Ogi (Secret Ninja)]
[Attack Inclination: High]
[Attribute Inclination: Agility, Spirit, Strength]
[Trait: Mastery of Earth Element]
[Threat Assessment: Slightly Inferior]
“Not bad,” Fang Bo’s frustrated expression finally eased.
After waiting so long, only to get a few no-name story characters who likely wouldn’t even drop a chest. Aside from feeding the big spider, they were practically useless.
Only the leader looked promising. Killing him should at least yield a chest.
Collecting the Heaven Scroll?
Fang Bo never cared about that. As long as he hunted enough targets, he’d eventually find the necessary mission items.
“Can I start now?” Jugo finally stepped forward.
A closer look showed that the young man’s body was trembling slightly, with a few drops of saliva unconsciously dripping from the corner of his mouth.
In such a bloodthirsty battlefield, Jugo’s nerves were constantly on edge.
It was already impressive that he had held out this long; he was on the verge of losing control over his desire to kill.
“Alright,” Fang Bo nodded cautiously, just hoping Jugo wouldn’t end up hitting them too.
With Fang Bo’s approval, Jugo instantly unleashed his Cursed Seal form, though he didn’t release all his bloodlust. He only partially transformed his arms and torso.
“You’re all going to die!” Jugo’s crazed laughter echoed, and in the next second, he was above the group.
With a simple punch, debris flew everywhere, and even Fang Bo felt the ground tremble beneath his feet from a distance.
“Incredible brute strength.” With a few slight finger movements, Yoriichi Model Zero silently descended, pinning one of the Grass Village members to the ground with the Nichirin Blade.
Swiftly swinging another Nichirin Blade, it gave the enemy a quick “neck treatment,” sending them directly to the afterlife.
The puppet then spun around, raising both swords to block the kunai strike from behind.
Its quick movements and reactions were mainly thanks to Fang Bo’s battle intuition and his skilled control.
It wasn’t just his body—his puppet also benefited from Akaza’s skills, including his newly acquired “King’s Treasure.”
Using his perception skill to anticipate attacks helped him land hits more effectively, thus boosting his damage efficiency.
“Well, that’s another skill I’ll have to improve,” Fang Bo thought calmly. He was already used to living without much money.
For now, he just wanted to see if that bastard would at least drop a chest.
On the other side, Yuki Ogi fled in panic, looking at Jugo with disbelief in his eyes.
“Where did this monster come from?!”
Just as he was about to call for his teammates, he turned and saw the puppet decapitating one of his comrades.
Cursing under his breath, Yuki Ogi quickly completed a series of hand seals.
**Earth Style: Earth Dragon Bullet!**
The ground beneath him shifted, forming the head of an earth dragon that began firing mud bullets as fast as real bullets.
With such a dense barrage, Yoriichi Model Zero couldn’t avoid it. After deflecting a few, it was sent flying.
The puppet’s durability, over 140 points, was completely destroyed in an instant.
However, this brief advantage couldn’t change their fate.
Jugo, like a god descending to earth, crushed one enemy with his fist. Fang Bo’s puppet cut down another. The two remaining enemies didn’t even stand a chance.
To prevent Jugo from stealing another kill, Fang Bo activated his hover speed and rushed toward the strongest opponent.
But he was too late. Before he could reach him, Yuki Ogi was struck hard in the abdomen by Jugo’s Cursed Seal arm.
“Damn,” Fang Bo cursed under his breath at the kill-stealing dog, then activated his Dragoon’s “Ammo Master” skill, hitting the airborne enemy with a bullet.
Before Yuki Ogi even hit the ground, his body was engulfed in a freezing mist, making it difficult for him to even hold his kunai.
Just as Fang Bo was about to finish him off, he suddenly turned to look behind him.
Several crystalline shurikens came whistling through the air, accurately striking the man on the ground, opening up bloody wounds on his chest, forehead, and left arm.
The one who threw them was none other than Guren, who was still injured.
“Huh?” Fang Bo was dumbfounded, landing despondently from the air.
The man was already dead, so what was the point of rushing in? He’d wasted his precious mental energy for nothing.
Looking at the story chest that appeared on the ground, he didn’t feel particularly thrilled.
It was just a blue chest. At his current level, it wasn’t of much use.
If his teammates hadn’t interfered, killing the enemy alone should have at least resulted in a purple chest.
At that moment, Fang Bo regretted getting such powerful teammates.
But considering the dangerous battlefield they were in, he brushed aside his little bit of dissatisfaction.
“Blue it is, better than nothing.”
About seven or eight seconds later, the last person fell to Jugo.
As Fang Bo watched his teammate suppress his bloodlust, he opened the chest he had just obtained.
[You are opening a Story Chest (Blue)]
[You received 50 Story Points]
[You received the Earth Dragon Bullet Scroll]
[You received a Complete Ninja Tool Kit]
**Earth Dragon Bullet**: A D-rank skill that consumes 6 points of spirit to summon the body of an earth dragon.
**Complete Ninja Tool Kit**: Includes 15 shuriken, 8 kunai, and 2 explosive tags.
After a quick inspection, Fang Bo casually hung the ninja tool kit on his waist.
This item was a special tool and didn’t take up any equipment slots—no matter how many you carried, as long as they fit on your body, you were good to go.
As for the skill scroll, it was a pleasant surprise, a testament to Yuki Ogi’s actual strength.
Too bad he ran into three even more terrifying opponents.
“Hidden Grass Village… nothing too special,” Fang Bo muttered, though he felt like he might have overlooked something.
Before he could ponder further, the first evolved ghost spider suddenly began to tremble violently.
Then, he received a special prompt.
[Choose the evolution path for the Elite Spider Soldier!]
[Evolution Path 1: Slaughter Spider Guard.]
[Evolution Path 2: Protector Spider General.]
The **Slaughter Spider Guard** specializes in tracking and hunting, with strong offensive capabilities, ideal for pack hunting.
The **Protector Spider General** excels in protecting the broodmother, helping to share her damage.
Considering the unique danger of the Forest of Death, the **Slaughter Spider Guard** wasn’t suited for independent hunting.
Rather than focusing on offense, upgrading the **Protector Spider General** would at least improve the survival chances of the Jorogumo.
If the broodmother were to die, all the surrounding ghost spiders would vanish with her.
“Evolve into a Protector Spider General.”
No matter the situation, the safety of the broodmother in this strategy of mass spawning had to come first.
Without the ghost spiders’ protection, Fang Bo wouldn’t dare act so recklessly in the space battlefield.
After devouring the strongest Grass Village member, the team saw the birth of their first third-rank ghost spider, while the corpses of the other three were used to replenish the ranks.
Soon, the ghost spider’s evolution was complete.
Beside the Jorogumo stood a male ghost spider with an exceptionally sturdy body, making it the perfect material for a tank.
[Name: Protector Spider General (Summon)]
[Rank: Third Rank]
[Health: 260]
[Strength: 14]
[Constitution: 16]
[Agility: 12]
[Spirit: 10]
[Perception: 12]
[Traits: Devour Evolution, Blood-Rich Flesh]
**Blood-Rich Flesh**: Grants an additional 100 health points through a thick vitality.
**Sacrificial Protection** (Passive Skill): Shares 10% of the damage taken by the Jorogumo when within 100 meters of her.
The two offensive traits had vanished, replaced by a tank talent that gave an additional 100 health points.
At this point, the third-rank ghost spider was tankier than most Reincarnators. Even in this space battlefield, few had more health than it.
With its abundant health, it could effectively shield the Jorogumo from damage.
The passive skill, **Sacrificial Protection**, could mitigate 10% of the damage, which, while not a huge amount, was still something.
If he could cultivate a few more spider generals, the damage absorption percentage would increase significantly. At that point, the Jorogumo would truly become an unkillable ghost mother.
“Devouring regular flesh is just too slow. I’ve been in this story world for over a month, and it’s only now that the first third-rank ghost spider has appeared.”
Aside from the spider general, there were still three spider soldiers around. Fang Bo was already thinking about how to help them evolve quickly.
“Unless… they could devour Jonin-level flesh.”
At that moment, Fang Bo found himself reminiscing about Anko Mitarashi, wondering if he’d ever get the chance to encounter her.
If the spider generals were this powerful, then the spider guards, specialized in slaughter, should be just as strong.
As he was about to clean up the battlefield to prevent the scent of blood from attracting other predators, one of the ghost spiders in the distance suddenly sent out an alert signal.
Under Fang Bo’s watchful gaze, Karin, teary-eyed, was escorted to him.
