Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu

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 .
