Chapter 52: After the Sea Crawlers.
1212 Words
"So, how's the scale of the Sea Crawlers? Are they up there with orcs? Or are they just a water goblin?"
"... Good call Alfredo... They're just as strong as Water Goblin. In the attack mechanism at least. But in the defense mechanism, they're probably the same as Orc... They didn't manage to get me, but their tentacles surely detect my movement. And it's impressive."
Yeah, That tentacles on their chin is pretty sensitive to any changes in the atmosphere. A slight movement can alert them. So that's why before I have any of this weapon, the first time I go to Rhea... I decided to not stay in the Beach because I know I have no chance of winning against them.
Flashbang won't work on them, and sound wave won't work on them either. If I use Fire Grenade or Explosion... It wouldn't kill all of them because of the numbers will just keep increasing...
But now that Mashura has killed a lot of those Sea Crawlers, the chance of them going out tonight is pretty slim. Because they know, if they comes out, they would be killed.
And also, the explosion that I cause might kill them as well. Because in water, Explosion directly attack their inside... Possibly killing them from inside out...
"So, Those dozen of Dragon. How are we going to kill them?"
Mashura asked that question as we're walking to the Deck... I decided to wait to answer that question. She's thinking that I'm thinking of a plan right now. And that's honestly true...
I move the Rhea Absolute to the center of the island and then I sit down on the chair...
"How we're going to kill them... Is pretty straight forward... Dragon Scales is really tough to crack. But that doesn't mean it's indestructible. With enough force, we can brute force through their scales. But that's not a really good idea...
So what I think we should do, is first, immobilize their ability to fly. Attack their wings as fast as you possibly can... If we can sliced their wings, It's already our win... But the thing about Dragon is the fire breath. It's strong, and with dozen of them, we couldn't risk our life to kill them in single session of attack.
So after we finished destroying their wings, We're going to move straight to their tails. A little wound in their tails will affect their ability to balance themselves properly... And then, the finishing blow will be dealt. Their head. Is the weakest spot in the entire body..."
"Alright. I believe you're going to give me the buffs and support that I needed yeah?"
"Of course Mashura. What do you think I'm here for? I'm the best buffers and backliner there are. If you need help in the front line, you can also call me. I'm also a great bait because my movement is not as sharp as yours. So they will think of me as an easier target."
I'm the perfect supporter they are. Mashura should know this... And she did know this. But she just want to make sure...
She smiled and then pat my back.
"Alright then... I'm going to the bedroom to rest... Tomorrow Morning, we can kill them."
"It all depends, Mashura. If they there in the morning... Then we will strike them."
Mashura walk away from me and enter the Lift... She's probably going to cool down. She's not actually going to sleep before a bit of cuddle with me... So, let's not keep her waiting for long.
"Chreation. Inform me if the Dragon arrive in the island."
'Understood Captain.'
I wait for the Lift to come back and then chase Mashura to the bedroom...
While that's happening to Alfredo and Mashura... On the other side of the Island... Not the side where they come from...
There's a big ship getting attacked by sea crawlers...
"s**t! Captain! This is bad! The Sea Crawlers has came in contact with the crew!"
One of the crew, told the Captain that... The Captain, is a really buffy old man... He has a cross scar on his face... Making him look really dangerous than he already are...
"Yare yare... Fine then... I'll take care of this matter with my own hands."
The Captain declared with his chest. The crew immediately sigh in relief. But then, the Captain said.
"Call Yuri for me. She's the key to victory here."
"Aye aye Captain!"
The crew run straight to the bottom of the ship. He can hear the sea crawler is climbing their boat and attacking the bottom of it. But he didn't care. He know that they can't break the wall or anything...
"Yuri! Yuri! Are you there?! Captain David called you!"
The Crew called Yuri... Or at least, attempted to call her... Because when he search for her, he just find a lady with uniform just sleeping quietly...
"Yuri!! Wake up! Captain David search for you for help! Sea Crawlers has crawled on top of our boat and attacking the crews!"
The Crew screams... And immediately. This lady wake up feeling dangerous. She grab the yellow blade right beside her and then tie her blonde hair to a pony tail.... She just push the crew away from her and said.
"Thank you for your information."
Yuri walk out from there and then go straight outside... She just saw that the Captain and other crews is trying to drive all of the Sea Crawlers away...
But it seems endless. Because they keep retreating and the other one comes back up...
"David. You need my help?"
"Vice Captain Yuri!"
Every crew immediately shines bright when they saw her appear... David smiled and then said.
"Yuri! Let's do the usual!"
"Alright. I hear you... Do it then."
"Anchor Wall!!!"
Immediately, all of the aggro from the Sea Crawler goes to the Captain...
Anchor Wall is a spell that draws all of the monster aggro to the user of Anchor Wall... Usually, the toughest guy uses this spell to draw the aggro... Leaving the rest of the party only need to worry about killing the rest of the monster... And that's exactly what Yuri's here for...
Without waiting any longer... She immediately raise her sword to the air... And then, swing it down.
"Raimei!"
Suddenly, Orb of Thunder appear right around David... David immediately embrace for impact as The Orb of Thunder just exploded... Shocking David slightly, but killing all of the Sea Crawlers that is attacking David...
"Uugh... Nice job."
David is still fine even with the shock of that thunder orb... Yuri just put her sword back on her back and then walk toward David...
"David. Change direction to Rhea Island. It's too dangerous for us to be in the water..."
"... Are you sure? Rhea Island is dangerous. There's a potential of us getting exposed to the radiation."
"It doesn't matter. As long as we stay on the coast, we shouldn't be exposed to any radiation..."
"Alright then. All of you! We're changing direction straight to Rhea Island!"
"Aye aye Captain!"
And with that, they make their way... To what they hope is safety... But what they didn't realize... That at the start of the morning... Only couple of them... Would be alive...
