I’m left alone, looking at the Scorpions.
[Now then, it’s a good thing that I’m the only one left, but what should I do now? Swaying Bear?] Yuna
I asked Swaying Bear who stayed with me.
Swaying Bear has a face that says [I don’t know.]
Yeah, of course.
[Can I roast it with Flame Bear?] Yuna
Just try to imagine…
Even if it didn’t burn the shell, the insides may get cooked with heat. If the pan is heated, the heat will reach deeper. If the heat reaches inside it, it may be able to bake its meat.
When I look at Swaying Bear, he cries , while shaking his head a little.
I wonder why?
Swaying Bear, sits up and touches his stomach.
[Do you have a stomachache?] Yuna
Swaying Bear shakes his head.
It’s different, apparently.
Swaying Bear moves his neck and looks at the big Scorpion.
[Scorpion?] Yuna
Swaying Bear’s belly…
Scorpion…
The answer that leads to it is…
Well… Pomf! (TN: muffled clapping sfx.)
Oh, I see.
[Crystal plate.] Yuna
Whether my answer was right or not, Swaying Bear sounds happily.
He touched his stomach to represented the crystal plate in the Scorpion’s stomach.
Well, of course….
I don’t know how robust the crystal plate is. But I don’t think it can withstand the heat of the Flame Bears.
The Flame Bear has extremely high temperature. If it gets baked by the Flame Bear as well, it may break.
Electrical appliance breaks down at extreme temperatures. As for my personal computer, I left the air conditioner on during the summer.
But then, I can’t use lightning magic as well. I don’t know how it’ll affects its body. If the electricity flows into the body and the crystal plate cracks, I will not be able to be recover it.
If I think about it that way, I can’t use the internal destruction magic.
The rest are water, ice, wind and soil, but I don’t feel like they’re all going to be fatally damage by it.
Before fighting, I thought it would be easy to defeat it using the Bear Cheat, but when I think about the crystal plate in its body, the attack method suddenly narrows.
This could be a surprisingly troublesome fight.
I pat the head of Swaying Bear and thank him for warning me.
So, before fighting the big Scorpion, I have to deal with the small Scorpions that are getting in the way.
I lean over from the height of about 2 or 3 floors and shoot an ice arrow towards the Scorpion that was crawling just below.
The ice arrow stuck onto Scorpion’s back. However, it kept crawling as if it was nothing.
Did it stop halfway?
Either the shell is too hard, or because the ice arrows were not powerful enough, it seems that they cannot be defeated by the current level of attack.
I thought it was just a small fry and a little delicious?
But it seems to be stronger, harder, sharper, and faster than I thought.
The Scorpion with an ice arrow sticking on its back, raised its tail up. And it shoots it’s needle above, towards me.
I quickly lower my body and avoid it.
I look down as I crawl. Then, the Scorpions began to gather.
Hey, that’s too fast.
I only shot a single ice arrow.
Look at how much coordination is taking place right now. But if I stay here, I’ll be fine.
Then, the Scorpions climbed the wall while I was thinking of such a dumb idea.
You must be kidding me! Moreover, their climbing speed is so fast.
However, it seems to be the right choice to block the passage. Scorpions were no longer able to chase Karina and the others from here.
