"Lil' Jiao?"
Underneath the blankets, no one answered. Still, Li Yi managed to discern that it was indeed Jiaojiao.
"Why, are you a little disappointed?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Hmph, you must be thinking that it would be great if Ice was the one under the blankets."
"I didn't!" Li Yi ferociously denied.
"You must've, you must've, you must've!"
The moon outside was still bright enough that the silhouette of the room could still be seen.
On the bed was one blanket that was laid down so flatly that it was clear that no one was under it.
...
By the next morning, Li Yi and Jiaojiao simultaneously found out that Fire Ice was soundly asleep on the bed in Li Yi's room.
"This d*mned woman dared to lie to me!" Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and wanted to step forward. However, she was stopped by Li Yi.
"Why are you still fussing about? Go and cook, quick!"
Li Yi changed into casual clothes and went out for a jog.
At noon, he then went online and appeared at the Spider Egg Forest.
There were still many players who were challenging the Spider Egg Forest. It seems that he could not challenge the Ultimate Mode for now.
Li Yi opened the messages in his Mailbox one by one to check their contents. This was a daily routine that he would follow once he got online.
30 alliance messages, 10 guild messages, and 5 private messages.
All five private messages were sent by Xu Man the superstar. All five of them had the same content, telling him to send her a message once he was online.
He checked his friends list to find that Xu Man was still online. Li Yi sent her a message.
"My grandfather still was to compete with you in drinking alcohol..." Xu Man seemed very embarrassed and struggled with her speech.
"Can't you just tell him that I'm already overseas?"
"That's a good idea too..." Xu Man sounded quite dejected.
"You're here to clear the Conquer Instance Dungeon too? Send me your dungeon progress, I want to see."
Xu Man sent her dungeon progress to Li Yi. Her record was not great as she were only at 15% progress.
Li Yi sent her the notes that were taken by him and Little Elf of the Magical Realm so that she could study them.
"Thanks. Also, my concert is happening in the next few days. I still have some VIP tickets with me, do you want to come over?"
"Nope."
"Why?"
"Firstly, I am not your fan. Secondly, if I wanted to hear you sing, I could listen to you anytime I want."
When he noticed that Xu Man did not reply, Li Yi continued to ask, "Oh yeah, where's Lil' Yue? I haven't seen her coming online recently. What's going on?"
"Oh, her? I think she's gone overseas to execute some sort of mission."
"No wonder I haven't seen her for such a long while."
After chatting with Xu Man, Li Yi realised that the players that were challenging the Spider Egg Forest have already left. Now, in the vast Spider Egg Forest, not one player was in sight.
This was a great opportunity!
Li Yi puckered up and walked to the left side of the Spider Egg Forest. In his past life, many courageous people had successfully challenged the 13,600 spider eggs. He had watched many videos on the subject, but he had yet to try it himself.
Li Yi activated Cheetah's Protection to increase his SPD by 30%.
He could never use a mount if he wanted to walk on the spider eggs because the combined weight of the player and his mount was too heavy. The spider egg would definitely be crushed, and there was no way that he could run at his top speed.
The only thing that he could rely on for this challenge of 13,600 spider eggs was his own two feet!
Li Yi heaved a long exhale and jumped onto the first spider egg. Then, he quickly ran forward...
There was no need to step on every single one of the 13,600 spider eggs. Instead, once the player had stepped onto a spider egg, all spider eggs within 10 to 15 yards would gradually hatch.
Li Yi sprinted so fast that it seemed like he was flying. He fully utilized the Flying Cloak to leap occasionally without halting his movement even once in the process. He ran in circles above the spider eggs.
The spider eggs that were stepped on had hatched, and the nearby spider eggs hatched soon after. The basketball-sized spiders behaved dumbly when they were just hatched, but once their bodies had hardened, they immediately started crawling quickly and collectively chased after Li Yi.
Getting chased by one or two spiders was nothing. However, if hundreds and thousands of spiders were chasing the same target, it presented quite a magnificent sight.
Pew! Pew! Pew pew...
Hundreds of spiderwebs were shot at Li Yi. Li Yi dodged them left and right while also paying close attention to step onto the spider eggs so that they would hatch. Things had become hectic right at that moment, with danger emerging consistently at every second.
While Li Yi was challenging the Spider Egg Forest, Ouyang Qian had arrived as well. When she saw the challenger was Li Yi, her interest was immediately piqued.
The legendary Archer of the Invincible Continent was indeed skilled and capable.
While Ouyang Qian had seen Li Yi, Li Yi had seen her too. The two of them exchanged a look and smiled.
"Good luck and don't die."
"Death is a difficult feat when such a beauty is watching so closely."
Li Yi let out a loud cry and jumped to the right to evade the attack from thousands of spider webs.
He had already stepped on half of the spider eggs there. The number of spiders that were chasing him had risen to a terrifying amount. This Challenge did not allow any room of mistake for the challenger as the Bind effect would be in place if he came into contact with even a small amount of spider web. Everything he did would be for naught.
As more and more spider eggs continue to hatch, the area that Li Yi could safely move in got smaller and smaller. With his current speed, it was very difficult for him to continue to the end.
Ouyang Qian actually felt some worry when she saw how risky and dangerous Li Yi's situation was.
"Roar!"
Just when the small spiders were about to catch up to Li Yi, he had transformed into a Lightning Leopard with a shake. Then, he sprinted forward with extraordinary speed...
"Amazing!" Ouyang Qian cheered and applauded.
"Brilliant!"
At the same time, someone cheered too. In the blink of an eye, a person had come to Ouyang Qin's side while riding on a Black Beetle mount.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had arrived too...
