Chapter 319
Defense Specialization and to the South
Drag, Shin, Chrome, and Kasumi were the four that headed to the south . Of course, Kasumi was the one in the team that had a mode of transportation that all four of them could use . Kasumi made Haku ‘Super Enlarge,’ and they traveled towards the dessert that Maple Tree had teleported to on the first day .
The reason for this was that the four had gone around to all of the suspicious spots on Sally’s map, but had found nothing . Even though the spots were all close together on the south side, making exploration easier .
And since they had now gone to all of the places with high priority, they decided that it must be somewhere that was hard to find . And so they had come to the wide open dessert .
“I was thinking this while riding Payne’s dragon as well, but it sure is nice to have a monster that can carry you . ”
“Yes, Mi said the same thing . ”
“Well, having mobility will allow you to get through areas faster... Now, is there anything here...”
“There really isn’t . But things seem to be going smoothly for the teams that went in the other directions...”
The four of them sat on Haku’s head and scanned the area . They were able to see worms and devils in the distance . It appeared that they were fighting some players, as they saw explosive magic effects .
“So there are players near the edge of the map as well . ”
“We weren’t the only ones who thought to come here then . Well, who wouldn’t think that there must be something in a dessert that’s this big?”
As they continued their search, the weather suddenly took a turn for the worse, and a powerful sand storm began to blow . And while they were wary, the devil monsters that were near the edge of the map did not come close to them . Chrome was especially cautious, as he was the shield-bearer . But he could not sense any enemy presences coming near .
“There must be something...Kasumi! Let’s get off for now . ”
“Yeah, let’s do that . ”
The four of them sensed something and so they got off of Haku, and she returned it to normal size . Then they started exploring on foot .
“It really is a crazy sandstorm . I can barely see in front of me . ”
“Maybe I should unleash ‘Destructor’ around us . At least then we’ll know if something is coming towards us . ”
And so Shin activated ‘Destructor,’ causing the multiplied swords to rotate around them in a wide circle . As long as it was a decently large monster, it would get hit, no matter what side it was coming from . So an ambush would be less likely .
As they walked like this for a while, Shin’s ‘Destructor’ caught something .
“Oh, it’s hit something... But it doesn’t seem like a monster . ”
“Then let’s head over to it . I wonder what it could be?”
When they reached it, they found a rocky area that was covered in sand from the sandstorm . But there were cracks between the rocks that looked like they led to an underground chamber .
“Let’s go then . We finally found something that looks promising . ”
“Yeah, let’s go . I won’t be able to enlarge Haku down there, but that can’t be helped . ”
As they moved between boulders and descended, they entered an underground chamber . The sound of falling sand echoed around them . The ground also looked like sand . And while they wouldn’t sink into it, it was still difficult to walk .
“Woah, it looks like we really found it . Awesome . ”
“Anyway, I think I should go in the lead . ”
“Hmm . Yes, we’ll leave it to you, Chrome . ”
“Now, what will we find...”
Chrome moved to the front and took the first step . Just then, the sand in front of him moved, and a single giant scorpion jumped out of the ground . But before the others could reach it with their weapons, it stung Chrome and then returned into the ground .
At the same time, an effect burst on Chrome, showing that the item he had received from Izu earlier had activated . It took the damage of an instant death attack for you .
“What? Are you kidding!? That scorpion has an instant death attack!”
“This is bad . We better retreat for now!”
“Then get on these! We’ll move away from the sand . ”
Shin said as he used ‘Destructor’ to create blades that they could ride on . Once they were able to temporarily escape the danger, they held a quick strategy meeting .
“Shin . I didn’t know you could use that skill like this . ”
Kasumi said as she pointed at the sword .
“I got the idea while watching Maple . There are a lot of ways to use a flying sword . ”
“But what should we do? We have instant death resistant items from Izu...but they’re not something we can keep using on monsters that aren’t even bosses . ”
“No, don’t worry . Just leave it to me . We just need to know the position of the scorpion inside of the sand, right?”
Drag said as he called out Earth . Earth was a Golem that had a lot of skills related to the ground . And so Drag had a way of dealing with this enemy .
