"Hmm? My eyes..."
As Hopper swallowed all the blue-eyed flies into his stomach, notifications popped up on the screen.
Hopper suddenly felt that the number of scenes in his eyes had increased by several times.
His eight eyes were like a kaleidoscope that he often played with as a child. There was a huge amount of information streaming through his eyes.
Hopper had to temporarily close all of his eyes, and then try to open them one by one.
By observing his surroundings, Hopper quietly felt the great changes in his eyes.
Originally, in this dark and damp crypt. Hopper could only feel the occasional cool breeze flowing in the crypt. He could barely see the walls and the patches of moss on the ground with a faint fluorescent light.
Now, after Hopper acquired this characteristic called 'compound eyes'. His eight eyes also became the compound eyes of a fly.
After gradually adapting to the visual range of the compound eyes, Hopper was now able to see his surroundings through the small illumination provided by the fluorescent moss.
"So that large barrier isn't a wall?"
The cluster of cobwebs that Hopper was currently resting in, hung at the top of the cave.
There were stone spines of different thicknesses and lengths hanging upside down at the top of the cave. The longest stone thorns had already pierced straight into the ground, forming thick stone pillars.
Hopper, who had limited vision before, mistook these for the walls of the cave.
The ground of the cave was the same as the top, it could not be said to be flat.
However, there were no stone thorns or stone pillars on the ground, instead, there were the bones of various unknown creatures scattered around!
"Could those be the skulls of demons?"
With the powerful visual ability of his compound eyes, Hopper constantly rotated his eight eyes.
Under the dim lighting provided by the fluorescent moss, he found quite a few skulls with two horns and sharp teeth. Also, beneath the skulls were huge humanoid skeletons.
In Hopper's memories, other than demons that he had never seen before, there was no known creature that matched the structure of the skeletons before him.
"It seems that the demon reincarnator did not spread false news."
"The demon army did explore this crypt and returned in defeat."
"1,2,3..."
"No wonder the demon reincarnator said that the commander of his army regarded this crypt as a forbidden area."
"Seven demons died here alone, not to mention how many people were lost in the other areas of the cave."
"It seems that it is indeed unsuitable to stay in this cave for long..."
Thinking of this, Hopper looked at the few spider webs that he had laid out previously.
Although he did not know that the 'walls' were actually stone spikes and pillars, those spider webs of Hopper's were still roughly set up between the stone spikes and pillars.
While he was eating and thinking, a few more blue-eyed flies hit the spiderweb.
The blue-eyed flies that were struggling were quickly wrapped up in the spiderweb until they stopped moving.
I should wait for a while more. At least it's still difficult to determine which direction is the exit of the crypt
Hopper, who was in the center of the spiderweb, stood up and closed his eyes to rest.
As he knew nothing about the other areas of the crypt, he could only roughly guess the direction of the exit of the crypt through the number of prey caught in the spider web.
After the spider web was all set up, all he had to do was wait quietly.

"16,17,18...looks like this spider web has the most harvest, there are a total of 18 blue-eyed flies."
By the time Hopper opened his eyes, an unknown amount of time had passed.
On the few spider webs around him, there were more or less a few blue-eyed flies. As Hopper ate and absorbed, he counted the number of prey on each spider web.
"Eighteen, eight, six, four, four..."
"If I'm not mistaken, this is the direction."
Hopper was about to get down from the spider web that had captured eighteen blue-eyed flies.
Then, he explored the corresponding direction of the spider web.
However, before he could make a move, the spider web began to tremble violently.
"This movement!"
The moment he felt the vibration of the spider web, Hopper lowered his head to look at the source of the vibration.
He saw a red-eyed silver-winged bat struggling on the spider web.
Unlike the previous red-eyed silver-winged bats, this red-eyed silver-winged bat was huge, at least half a meter tall, its wings were also more than a meter long, and its fur and wings were thicker.
Most importantly, even with such thick fur, Hopper could still see through the red-eyed silver-winged bat's body.
Strange blood-red patterns were faintly discernible.
"This guy sucked blood!"
Hopper could see that the red-eyed silver-winged bat was not cut by his spider web.
The dense blood-red patterns were actually the bat's blood that flowed through its blood vessels, flowing to all parts of its body after it sucked blood.
"Looks like this spiderweb corresponds to the direction of the crypt's exit!"
"This scarlet-eyed silver-winged bat has just returned from sucking blood from the outside!"
