Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?
55 100 metres above ground defense battle ①
Uh, I slept.
Yeah.
You slept.
But what is it?
I was going to have a little more blast sleep, but it felt like I woke up unexpectedly?
Hmm?
This feeling of my whole body hair being the other way around.
It could suck.
Cholo faces out of the rock and peeks downstairs.

……
A herd of monkeys was forming under his eyes.
I count to about fifty.
Huh?
You're lying, aren't you?
Those guys, they definitely recognize us.
Why!?
Rock camouflage should be perfect.
I know very well because I saw it from the outside too.
It should only look a bit like a popped up wall in a puff.
Why!?
The only reason I can think of is because of the same kind of monkey I defeated before this.
What was he doing?
Like a special smell?
I don't know.
But in reality, these monkeys are waiting for me.
Looks like he's still trying to climb the wall.
Or I started climbing.
Wow, not good!
Exactly. Climbing a vertical wall seems to be a struggle though monkeys, and climbing pretty slow.
This should take a few minutes to get here.
In the meantime, we have to take some action.
This is the best place to escape to tell the ceiling.
It's up to Muli to deal with that number of monkeys.
All right, if that's what you decide, let's just get out of here.
Is that it?
The color of the ceiling is changing from the middle of nowhere?
Shh!?
Awesome slip!?
The yarn hardly sticks either!?
Oh no...
The ceiling is about a metre or two from the wall and the rock mass is changing.
My feet are grated, on a twitchy rock that barely even sticks the thread I made into a sticky max.
Now, you can't just pass on the ceiling and run.
Then we'll have to run sideways to tell the wall.
Maybe those guys are coming after us, but it's a gut fight there.
All right, let's go... Gun!
Yeah!?
What! What!?
Stone!?
Wow, those guys, they threw stones at me!?
I mean, it arrived even though it was quite tall from the ground to here!?
Wow, he threw it again!?
Quickly retreat into the rocks.
A stone hits where I was late.
The stones that have just been thrown so far from the ground don't seem so powerful.
But if you hit it with it sticking vertically to the wall, maybe, it'll drop.
When you see exactly where I was, you seem to have the skills to throw or hit, or both.
Hilarious and unpleasant.
I can't get away with this.
What are we gonna do?
No, there's one road left already.
We just have to intercept.
Fortunately, there is a home here, albeit simple.
Before that monkey gets there, we just have to fortify and intercept this place as much as we can.
Unlike when you're a bee, even in a battle with the same wall, this time there's no local interest beyond.
Rather, the local interest is this way because it can be used as a scaffold and fortress for a simple home.
I just have to do it.
Spread the yarn first.
Paste it on the wall with a manipulative thread.
Simple, but this should make it harder to climb the wall.
While avoiding the stones that can be thrown at you, so the work is hard to go on.
While I was doing this, the first batch of monkeys climbing came up to about half the wall.
Not good.
Climbing monkey walls faster than expected.
With the amount of yarn you've just missed, it's mundane to stop all the monkeys.
What are we gonna do?
Oh, I wonder if there's anything we can attack from over here, too?
I have a throw and a hit, and I hope it's something I can throw...
Oh, I'm not throwing it, but there's something I can drop!
Get your face out of the rock and activate the poison synthesis.
Of course it's not weak poison to let it out.
A powerful poison, a spider poison, that I have forged in previous spider raw.
The spider poison balls that emerged in front of me fall intact, pulled by gravity.
I can't avoid this on a monkey climbing a wall.
Beautifully hit in the face, the monkey falls in bitter boredom.
I can do this!
Quickly check the consumption MP.
The MP I consumed was only 1.
I mean, you can shoot up to 40 shots.
If you think about it with the amount of yarn you use, about 25 rounds.
If we can get them all hit, we can get about half a dozen monkeys off!
Drop the second shot immediately.
This hits again, too, and the monkey falls.
Keep going.
This kind of thing should be dropped when you can.
"Proficiency reached a certain level. Skill" Poison Synthetic LV1 "has become" Poison Synthetic LV2 "
Skill levels have increased, but we'll check later.
Spider poison is stronger than added poison anyway.
I have succeeded in dropping quite a few monkeys, but the monkeys have responded as well.
We avoided the immediate vicinity of the nest and began moving to the side.
Drop any poison before moving sideways and cutting.
"Proficiency reached a certain level. Skill 'Hit LV2' has become 'Hit LV3'
All right, all right.
Monkeys fall like funny.
But they moved a lot to the side.
I don't think I can use poisoning anymore.
I had some anxiety about the rest of the MP, and maybe it was just the right time.
Thread in the direction of the monkeys moving sideways.
Still, this battle has just begun.
