Within the depths of the Rank 1 Dungeon, a monstrous beast of gargantuan proportions was growing without stopping, as it gave birth to hundreds of eggs every day. The eggs cracked open in just a few hours, as tiny little crawling spiders of Rank 1 began to devour one another in a showcase of pure grotesqueness and the unforgiveness of nature.
The monstrous spider looked down at its young as her eyes shone with bright crimson-red light, her gargantuan size overlooking the entire hive that had grown tremendously over this small amount of time. Its intellect, although small, had grown exponentially as it Ranked Up and grew stronger through the constant absorption of Mana from the Dungeon itself, one of her special Abilities and the one that had given her the ability to multiply so fast without seemingly any exhaustion.
She looked down at her young, her size was several meters tall as her sharp, metallic claws reached up to them, the spear-tip of her legs piercing her own children's bodies, impaling several of them and skewering them as if they were her new meal, and indeed, they were.
The monstrous mother opened her massive jaws as saliva poured down like rivers, drowning a few of her young that began to scream in fear and running away from their own mother who ate them like snacks.
Crunch.Slurp…
The massive spider opened her jaws as a long, purple-colored tongue grasped all her children impaled by her metallic and spear-shaped legs, which were still very much alive, and she devoured them, with mana cores and all, as if they were a mere meal like every day for her.
Gulp.
She swallowed the disgusting and bitter crushed bodies of her newborn children as her eyes shone with bright crimson red. The massive spider was far from even being a good mother, this monstrous creature was only made for the purpose of absorbing mana, devouring, and growing.
She had been barely moving from her original position after a week of being born from the black-colored egg left behind underground by the Dark Shadow Sect Disciple that had left it here. The egg had hatched after just a few hours as it had begun to absorb mana immediately since it was put in the dungeon. This monstrous spider quickly began to build a nest, being able to create spiderwebs from a young age, the monstrous little creature preyed in the monsters that natural spawned here.
Although she had originally struggled a little bit as she was Rank 1, she quickly grew stronger. Her Mana Core was refined countless times as she absorbed the rich mana of the dungeon. In a few weeks, her power grew drastically, and she became larger and evolved, several times over this little time, becoming a gargantuan behemoth.
Her monstrous appearance and body size was not everything it had as it preyed on her children after she reached a point where it got too lazy to move, laying eggs everywhere and then letting her children run rampant, devouring one another while she cherry picked the slowest and unhealthier ones, eating them and nourishing herself with the fruit of her own life.The monstrous and aberrant spider looked down at the rest of her young dissipating from her hive, seeing them fleet away, she felt nothing at all other than the innate desire to grow stronger. Although her own consciousness has been evolving in this little time, going past the expectations that even her own creators had devised for her.
"Hungry…"
It muttered words in the language of the ice giants whose memories it had absorbed with its absorption power after devouring their brains. It felt hunger even after satiating herself, this undying hunger… as if she was the embodiment of gluttony.
Its very existence had been created as a plague beast, a creature that was supposed to parasitize dungeons from the creator's enemies and cut them off of their resources. This creature would quickly grow stronger by using the special ability it was made with, Mana Absorption, it would absorb the mana of the dungeon by rooting itself into the depths of the dungeon and would constantly generate young to feed on and multiply her army.
It was an aberrant race of beings that grew stronger incredibly quickly and could absorb the mana of whatever it ate, but what its creator had not imagined was that it would evolve so fast beyond its original scope, indeed, using such advanced techniques that only an Immortal would be able to device it was to be expected that this beast would develop ahead of its own capabilities and easily surpass them… the aberrant spider seemed to have been born to devour it all.
The creator, who had fallen long ago, had awakened within the inheritance that the Dark Shadow Sect had acquired and found long ago, whom the sect master was finally awakening its true secrets and capabilities. Amongst its treasury various eggs of these aberrant spiders were present, which could bring a lot of soldiers in the form of tamed spider monsters to the sect.
The sect members were impatiently waiting for them to finally come out of their own dungeons, their very last stage in the evolution of these monsters was to crawl outside their nests and expand their endless army of children across the land, invading anywhere they could find where there could be life on it to devour…
They would infect even more dungeons as they left eggs on them, for even more spiders to be born, it was an aberrant parasitic race that parasitized dungeons themselves, a unique living organism created by a genius Immortal who was once referred as the Dark Color… or Black, for short.
The Dark Shadow Sect didn't knew the true name aside from "Black Color" within this ancient Immortal, but the very sect master who was being guided by its ghost knew very much its true purposes and identity…
However, the spider did not know nor cared about this.
It sensed the presence of guests, and it quickly commanded her troops to catch them and bring them to her, dead or alive.
