[Congratulations, host, you have triggered a mission!]
Xiao Feng was calling for help from the system, but the system suddenly responded with a cheerful voice saying this to him.
Xiao Feng's anxious emotions calmed down in a few seconds.
Then he frantically shouted in his mind, "Don't let me trigger any more quests, let me figure out a way to get out of the Demon Hunter's Cave first, okay?"
"I've only been down for a short time, look at all these injuries! Am I really going to die here?!"
The system in his mind let out a few human-like laughs, and then began to communicate with Xiao Feng.
[Host, don't worry. The quest I triggered just happens to be located in the Demon Hunter's Cave.]
Xiao Feng knew he couldn't communicate with the system, so he could only nod speechlessly.
He then asked, "Fine, just tell me, what quest was triggered?"
[The host must find a magic stone here.]
"Demon Spirit Stone?" Xiao Feng repeated the name of the quest item to himself.
The system quickly informed Xiao Feng of the reward: "[The reward this time is a protective golden pill.]"
Xiao Feng rolled his eyes and said, "Just from the name, you can tell how rare this thing is, and how hard it is to find. What use is a protective golden pill if I die on the way?"
"Why don't you give me the reward first? I promise that after I take this protective golden pill, I will definitely be able to find this demonic spirit stone for you!"
The system weakly spoke in the consciousness space.
[Host, we don't support credit transactions.]
Xiao Feng was speechless: "Then can I exchange for a protective golden pill first?"
The system continued to speak weakly.
[Host, you might not have enough to exchange.]
Xiao Feng coldly replied, "Then what use are you to me? What if I die here?"
A cheerful voice from the system rang out.
[The host is a chosen one, how could he possibly die here? Keep going, host, I believe you can definitely find this Demon Stone.]
Xiao Feng cursed the system in his heart.
Helpless, the system had no choice but to shut down communication with Xiao Feng, which angered Xiao Feng so much that he started cursing and swearing.
Despite his grumbling, his actions betrayed him as he found a place that was relatively safe to hide in for the time being.
After all, he was below the Demon Hunter's Cave, where his spiritual power was suppressed, making him unable to cope with the potential crises that could arise at any time.
And there are also those strange, eerie winds here.
He didn't know where these winds came from, but each wind blade could cut bloody marks directly on his body.
All the wounds on his body were caused by these suddenly appearing wind blades.
After finding a place where he could hide, he crouched down in a corner in a sneaky manner.
Originally, I wanted to ask the system where I could find magic stones.
The next second, he met a pair of small eyes that were flashing with a bright green glow.
Xiao Feng blinked, and the other person blinked back.
Then a sharp howl rang out from both sides.
The other party's shout was extremely piercing, as if it could directly pierce through Xiao Feng's sea of consciousness.
Xiao Feng quickly covered his ears, trying to block out the sound.
But now that his spiritual power is restricted, he has no way to do anything.
He could only suppress the piercing scream, picked up a stone from the side, and threw it directly at the owner of the small-eyed man.
Xiao Feng never expected that he would actually see a spider here!
And if he wasn't mistaken, this should be a giant spider that had been corrupted by demonic energy.
The giant spider went berserk after being hit by the stone Xiao Feng had just thrown.
It quickly swung its eight legs and crawled towards Xiao Feng.
This giant spider was about the size of a human head, and its eyes were a deep green, like a ghost in the night.
Xiao Feng felt a chill run down his spine.
In addition, this giant spider is exceptionally ugly, perhaps because it lives in the Demon Hunter's Cave.
There were bumps all over its body, and it was unclear what they were.
Anyway, there were still things wriggling inside those protrusions.
Xiao Feng couldn't imagine how many small spiders or insects were inside.
Just imagining that scene made him want to vomit.
"Aaaaaah! System! Show yourself right now! What the hell is this thing?! Do you think I can withstand the attack of this mutated giant spider?!"
If this had happened before Xiao Feng's spiritual power was restricted, these things would definitely not have been a match for him.
With a casual wave of his hand, he could easily kill hundreds or thousands of people.
But right now, he's at most a weakling who's only slightly stronger than an average person.
How could he possibly deal with such a giant spider that could survive in bizarre circumstances?
After entering the Demon Hunter's Cave, he basically didn't encounter any living creatures.
When he occasionally encountered them, they were nothing more than those who were hiding in the shadows, watching him.
He didn't know what it was either.
This is the only creature that can still climb out of the Demon Hunter's Cave even when strange winds appear.
Moreover, those wind blades barely hurt it when they brushed against its body.
At most, it would leave a very shallow mark, which shows how strong its defensive capabilities are.
Xiao Feng didn't think he could handle it under these circumstances.
But the system emitted a surprised sound.
[Host, the magic stone you're looking for is inside this mutated giant spider. Good luck, host!]
Upon hearing what the system said, Xiao Feng, who had originally wanted to escape, stiffly turned his head away.
Looking at this ugly, powerful, mutated spider, I felt conflicted.
If he could obtain the protective golden pill, his life would be safe.
But this demonized giant spider is something he, with his spiritual power suppressed, is not capable of dealing with.
Xiao Feng sighed softly, then turned around and began to try to meet the attack of the magical giant spider head-on.
"System, is there any way for me to find the weakness of this demonized giant spider? It has managed to survive in such a difficult place as the Demon Hunter Cave. Its defense is much stronger than mine. I really can't deal with it now."
Xiao Feng tried to seek help from the system, but the system could only offer a weak response.
[The system can't help either; the host has to defeat this mutated giant spider on their own. However, this mutated giant spider isn't very strong; its only strength is its defense.]
[Although your spiritual power is suppressed, your physical strength far surpasses that of the mutated giant spider. I believe you can definitely defeat it. Go for it, host!]
Seeing the system's version of inspirational quotes, Xiao Feng was speechless. He rolled his eyes and then stopped communicating with the system.
While dodging attacks, he pondered how to obtain the Magic Stone.
Finally, Xiao Feng came up with a brilliant idea.
