While everyone's attention was focused on him, the two little spiders that had just emerged from the magic circle had already begun hawking their services.

Failed Eel: "Rides for hire! 500 Joss Paper an hour! PM for a quick deal!"

Failed Dirty Eel: "Half price for the second one!"

Even though the spiders controlled by the players had just hatched from spider eggs, thanks to the infusion of the "Scourge OL" faith, their bodies were fully developed, their rotund forms about a meter long, more than capable of carrying skeleton soldiers.

Watching the two Earth Cave Spiders "selling" themselves at the scene, [China's Number One Pig], who had also just emerged from a spider egg, was instantly shocked.

"What the fuck?! Where's your dignity?"

Failed Eel: "What do you know? This is the correct way to use Earth Cave Spiders!"

Failed Dirty Eel: "Exactly! Without any equipment, how are we supposed to slay monsters? Are we really supposed to bite with our mouths? That's too heavy, man."

China's Number One Pig: "???"

Uh?

For a moment, he couldn't quite tell who was the real freak and who had the correct answer to the game's meta.

But honestly, although Joss Paper wasn't worth much, charging 500 an hour was still somewhat humorous.

Just as the pig brother wondered who would fall for this, three skeleton soldiers indeed approached from not too far away.

They seemed to be heading straight for them!

Dragon Roaming Wanli: "So it's 500 an hour, right? We need three for a 12-hour day, do you do all-inclusive? We'll mainly be clearing the sewer corridors, we need you to follow orders and not land the last hit on the boss, the mission and loot profits are split fifty-fifty... uh, it looks like you don't need equipment anyway, so we'll just estimate the value at the NPC shop and cash it out for you."

The leading brother was straightforward and didn't even bother to haggle.

Failed Eel: "No problem at all!"

Failed Dirty Eel: "Let's go slay some monsters!"

China's Number One Pig: "Wait, bro, I'm just passing by—"

Dragon Roaming Wanli: "An additional 500 for a full day's work for 12 hours and an overtime pay of 100 per hour. I'm talking about RMB."

China's Number One Pig: "!!! Brother, please carry me!"

Failed Eel: "Big boss is awesome!"

Failed Dirty Eel: "Awesome!!!"

"Remember to PM me your account info."

Dragon Roaming Wanli gave a hand signal to the two behind him, signaling them to "get in the car," then he himself was the first to mount up.

Maybe because of the eight legs, this mount was unexpectedly more stable than a horse, not shaky at all when it moved.

Dragon Roaming Qianli hesitated a little.

"Is this... really okay?"

"What's wrong with something that's mutually agreeable?"

Already riding an Earth Cave Spider, Dragon Roaming Baili said with a playful grin.

"Stop dawdling. It's just a game. Didn't you ever play cavaliers fighting with the other kids in your yard when you were little? If you say you haven't, I'm going to have to laugh at you... Let's go, off to hunt some monsters!"

Spider riders!

He was just an ear-tip away from being a Dark Night Elf!

Qianli sighed, finally mounting as well.

She wasn't afraid of spiders.

It was just that riding on the back of an unfamiliar man (or woman) felt odd...

Meanwhile, seeing the wealthy trio ride off into the distance, envious expressions appeared on the faces of the newbie players.

It really proved the old saying: some people are born riding horses, while others are born as screw horses.

Watching the "spider cavalry" move away, Hu Wan's face showed a complicated expression.

"These guys are still the same old same." he said.

Even in a no-pay-to-win game, I'll find a way to flex my spending power.

Yiye Zhiqu joked.

"Looks like you guys are old friends."

"Not... not really, I shouldn't be familiar with them, I think I've told you, but for some reason, they seem to know me," Hu Wan sighed, "Anyway, let's go hunt some monsters... sewer corridor or Spider Cave? You decide."

After surrendering to the Weaving Shadow Nest, players could still attack the "non-green name Earth Cave Spiders" in the maze—that is, the "wild monsters" or small tribes scattered in the corners of the Underground Maze.

The most monster-infested areas were now marked on the first floor of the Underground Maze map.

By the way, shortly after the surrender CG animation of Weaving Shadow Nest finished, the official forum updated the structural map of the first level of the Underground Maze.

This included not just the original maze parts, but also the areas where Weaving Shadow Nest had expanded along the periphery of the maze.

Although a minimap and positioning function had yet to be implemented, it was much easier to confirm one's location now, taking into consideration the maze's unique landmarks and intersections, than it was before.

Yiye Zhiqu thought for a while, then spoke.

"There was an update just now for hunting Lizardmen. Let's go to the sewer corridor to farm contributions, help you get to Black Iron rank first... By the way, have you decided if you want to reincarnate or not? If you want to reincarnate, it's best to do it right when you hit LV4, so you can minimize experience loss."

"I've thought about it long ago," Hu Wan smiled and said, "I plan to try out Undead Rat, it feels like it would suit me better than skeleton soldiers."

Yiye Zhiqu: "Thief, huh? It does seem more fitting for you than skeletons. But, pioneering a new class means there won't be any guide to follow, make sure you've thought it through."

Hu Wan casually waved his hand.

"Hah, do we professional gamers care about that? And I've got you, haven't I?"

Being flattered so directly, Yiye Zhiqu blushed a bit and laughed it off.

"Thanks for the praise... It's getting late, let's set off soon. We don't want all the monsters to be cleared out by those guild big shots."
