It's currently winter, so this scarf made of spider silk by a red jade spider isn't exactly out of season.
But just as Gu Xinghe was trying to put the white scarf around his neck...
What he felt was not the warmth that a regular scarf brings, but a chill.
The spider silk scarf, which should have been very comfortable to wear in the summer, now seems to have no warmth-keeping function whatsoever.
Even though Gu Xinghe had been wearing the scarf around his neck for a while.
The heat that should have been transferred from his skin to the scarf did not change the temperature of the scarf at all.
Throughout the entire incident, the scarf around Gu Xinghe's neck remained icy cold.
It's a scarf that's supposed to be worn in winter, but it has created the cooling and heat-reducing effect that you'd really want in summer.
But feeling the pleasant emotions emanating from the red jade spider, Gu Xinghe ultimately did not remove the scarf around his neck.
Moreover, with his current formidable physical condition, this slight chill doesn't have much of an impact on him.
There were reasons why he had difficulty raising plants and animals in his own world before he transmigrated to this world.
So, when faced with such an easy-to-care-for pet that can work 24/7 and even proactively knit scarves for its owner, it's understandable.
Even if the knitted scarf feels a little strange when worn.
But Gu Xinghe still felt a rare sense of relief, as if he had finally grown up and learned to be filial.
So, wearing a cool white scarf, Gu Xinghe began to study the new state of the Red Jade Spider after it had awakened from its previous slumber.
After the red jade spider swallowed a native insect egg and three replica eggs, its appearance changed slightly.
It was no longer the translucent red it used to be, but instead had white linear patterns all over its body.
It inevitably brings to mind those white maggots that never fully matured in the wheat field town.
However, the overall appearance of the Red Jade Spider is still predominantly red, and the newly appeared white patterns look more like a tattoo.
This adds a touch of mystery to the appearance of the Red Jade Spider.
Not only in appearance, but just as Gu Xinghe had sensed when touching the scarf, the red spider's silk had also undergone some kind of evolution.
Unlike back in Wheatfield Town, where Red Spider's silk couldn't withstand the high temperatures caused by the bombs he threw, this time...
The silk of the red jade spider is now venom-treated, heat-resistant, and extremely tough and sharp.
Of course, red spiders can also control whether the silk they produce is poisonous and how tough it is.
For example, the scarf that Gu Xinghe is wearing around his neck now is very soft and comfortable.
In addition, after consuming four insect eggs, the Ruby Spider also evolved the ability to swarm like an army.
Of course, while it's said to be a massive army, the Red Jade Spider's actual capabilities are still quite far from that.
Moreover, it differs from Serena's ability to generate an almost endless stream of insects in the wheat field town at that time.
The abilities that the Crimson Spider evolved are neither derived from nor control over insects.
After the eggs were devoured by the red jade spider, the spider's abilities underwent a certain degree of adaptation and mutation.
At this time, the Ruby Spider possesses the ability to create and split its own spider clones.
The split spiders do not affect the Red Spider's own strength.
However, these split-off second-generation spiders are merely weakened versions of the clones.
It also no longer possesses the ability to continue splitting into three generations of spiders.
Looking at the ten identical little spiders that had split off from the Crimson Jade Spider, which had now reached their maximum power level.
Gu Xinghe never imagined that he would be able to raise eleven pets at the same time.
I patted the red spider's head, telling it to collect all the baby spiders that had split off first.
Gu Xinghe happily placed the red jade spider on his shoulder and let it perch on the scarf he had knitted.
After wrapping the long scarf around his neck twice, Gu Xinghe casually draped it over his shoulders.
And that's how the red jade spider was "buried" inside these layers of scarves.
At first glance, it looks a bit like a red apple buried in the snow.
After leaving the room with the Crimson Jade Spider, Gu Xinghe headed towards the research lab.

After completing the [Crop Circle] instance, and after a period of somewhat intermittent research due to the manor banquet.
Gu Xinghe has finally completed the improvement of the semi-finished liquid bomb he made earlier.
The improved liquid bombs are undoubtedly more stable, and the thrill of "exploding at any time" will no longer occur.
