"Don't worry, your strength will naturally allow you to pass the level."
As for this girl, Talisa knew that Mingluo had no ability at all and was probably just following Ye Zhihan and taking advantage of the situation. But her brother had let this girl down, so as her sister, she should give Mingluo a break as well.
"I'll let the Spider-Man personally escort you out of the desert. Then, if you follow the underground river all the way south, you will reach the underwater abyss of the next level." Originally, the contestants needed to rely on their own abilities to get out of the desert, but she had misunderstood these two people first, so she decided to let her brother escort them out of the desert as compensation to them, which would also make her feel a little better.
"Thank you, Sister Talisa!" Ming Luo smiled immediately when he heard this, and his bright eyes curved into a small crescent.
"Hmph, she is my sister, not your sister!" The Face-Controlling Spider corrected angrily.
Phew, it seems this little monster has a sister complex, Mingluo thought secretly.
"Spider, you must escort them out of the desert safely and don't do anything tricky! Come back to me immediately after you send them away!" Talisa glared with her beautiful eyes, and the Spider stopped moving.
The Spider-Man thought that his sister was good in every way: beautiful, with a good figure, and very loyal to him. However, he just had a bad temper and was always hesitant to follow certain bad rules that prohibited him from doing this or that.
The Spider-Man lowered its head, silently walked up to Ye Zhihan and Ming Luo, and said helplessly, "Come with me."
After Ming Luo thanked Talisa again and again, he finally embarked on the journey with the Spider-Controlling Spider. Talisa looked at the two figures, one big and one small, from afar, and her doubts grew. Elder Suma was very powerful and was fair and strict in the selection of cross-border travelers. How could he let such an incompetent girl enter the cross-border travelers selection?
Talisa narrowed her eyes and looked at the direction where Mingluo's figure disappeared with amusement.
…
What the Face-Controlling Spider said was right. They only needed to follow the direction of the quicksand to get out of the desert circle. Now the two of them and the spider were moving at high speed across the desert, just like traveling through space. They just appeared from one end of the quicksand and disappeared from the other end.
During the journey, Ming Luo was not idle either. Talisa was obviously a goddess-level boss, while this Face-Controlling Spider was just a little monster. Why was Talisa, the Goddess of the Desert, the Face-Controlling Spider's biological sister?
Ming Luo's curiosity was ignited, so she talked to Yumianzhu about Talisa in a roundabout way. Ye Zhihan was also a little curious about this, so he listened attentively.
This Face Control Spider is indeed a sister complex. When talking about her sister, it talks endlessly as if it has opened a box of chatter. The reason why the Face Control Spider and Talisa are siblings is that the story goes back thousands of years...
Ever since Talisa cultivated through the Golden Snake to become the ruler of the desert, she discovered that the place where she was born not only had a broken eggshell, but also a very inconspicuous spider egg sac hanging outside the eggshell. Inside the egg sac was a chubby little baby with inconspicuous spider legs growing on its back.
Talisa, who had been alone for thousands of years, was immediately drawn to this adorable creature. She protected it like her own brother, but the spider egg seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, refusing to grow. Only when Talisa gently stroked the egg sac did the little creature inside become slightly more active. Thus, Talisa guarded this tiny spider egg for thousands of years, cherishing it dearly.
Thousands of years of hard work finally paid off. Not long ago, the face-controlling spider finally hatched successfully. Talisa immediately recognized it as her own brother and doted on it, allowing it to grow up comfortably in the harsh environment of the desert.
Under Talisa's protection and favor, the Face-Controlling Spider became very arrogant. It relied on its instinct to hunt the weak, and peeled off the faces of beautiful girls passing through the desert to drive its puppets, which caused a lot of trouble.
"I'm wondering, other monsters can hunt small monsters or animals as food, why can't I ask for a beautiful woman's face? I don't want their lives!" At this point, the face-controlling spider even discussed its living habits with the victim Ming Luo. In its opinion, there was nothing wrong with what it did. In the face-controlling spider's survival rules, this was as common as other monsters eating, and had nothing to do with evil.
Ming Luo felt a little nauseous after hearing this. The Face-Controlling Spider didn't take anyone's life, but how was what it did different from taking someone's life?
"Besides, I always ask for beautiful and charming faces, why does my sister still hate them? After I become stronger, the puppets can obviously protect my sister together with me..." The face-controlling spider had no idea of the key to the problem.
Ming Luo didn't want to talk about this horrible thing with the Face Controlling Spider at all. She was only interested in Talisa. "Why don't you just eat the same food as your sister? Stop peeling my skin..."
"My sister is a fairy! She doesn't need to eat!" said the face-controlling spider proudly. This face-controlling spider is really a sister-con. Two out of three sentences are praising his sister. Presumably, this little guy likes the queen face, which is also closely related to his love for his sister.
After listening to the Face-Controlling Spider's mumbling for a long time, Ye Zhihan finally spoke. He said, "That's right, Talisa is about to become a god. She no longer needs to eat."
Mingluo nodded in understanding, but inwardly she lamented how difficult it was for this brother and sister to live harmoniously together. What on earth was Talisa trying to achieve by raising such a naughty child? Being both a sister and a mother was truly exhausting.
However, through the conversation with the Face-Controlling Spider, Ming Luo was able to figure out the timeline of the matter. Because the Face-Controlling Spider was too troublesome, Talisa tied it to her side. Even when she served as the gatekeeper of the Crossing the Border selection competition, she brought this troublesome brother with her.
Unexpectedly, the Crossing World Selection Competition gave the Face Controlling Spider an opportunity to escape. It sped away, heading straight to the Monster Forest, where food resources were more abundant, to hunt. As luck would have it, just as it had taken possession of a tree trunk and woven its web, Ming Luo, eagerly riding his rickety bicycle, took the bait. This led to the Face Controlling Spider's subsequent attack on Ming Luo.
Okay, I became an unlucky guy as soon as I traveled to another world. What did Ming Luo do to anyone?
Just as the Face-Controlling Spider was constantly praising Talisa, they finally arrived at the edge of the desert. The Face-Controlling Spider saw that its mission was completed, and said, "There is a dark river under your feet," and then rushed back into the desert without looking back. It had to go back quickly to apologize and coax its sister. Although it was a pity that it could not get Mingluo's face, its sister was the most important person. Let the two contestants do whatever they want, it didn't care at all.
Ming Luo watched the face-controlling spider moving at high speed with dust rising behind it, and his eyes twitched. This little bastard probably doesn't care about anyone except its sister. This kind of monster will probably cause trouble sooner or later.
Indeed, the Face-Controlling Spider not only nearly took Ming Luo's life in the Crossing-Over Space, but also caused her a lot of trouble afterwards, but that's all a story for later.
