Leaps and dodges a rapidly approaching attack on himself. But a sharp poison needle hits me from the head like I was waiting for that gap.
A blow you can never avoid in the air if you're sure it's normal. Exceptions were made only to the person.
Activate the Slapenil shoe, which is also a magic item, and leap straight into the air to the side. At the same time, he kicks again in the air and forcefully packs his intercourse with the monster who has attacked him with triangle jumping guidelines, wielding his magic to the weapon he had in his hand.
Due to the flushed magic, the jointed sword, instantly whipped from a normal long sword, stretches to the right of a giant sasori about 6 m long, from which it cuts off all four legs and a giant claw.
Naturally, there was no way that all the sasori that had severed the right leg and the jaw could stand as they were, and the balance broke and my body collapsed into the desert.
"Ray!"
Instead of kicking the sand that gets your feet taken, Elaine screams as she activates Slapenil's shoes and kicks the sky and jumps quickly backwards.
Ray activates the magic he was already chanting when he heard it and waited for it, and the same arrow of flames that knocked Sandworm down slams him to the razor.
As was noted from the Preades when the sasori appeared, parts useful as materials such as wax, tail, and head are removed, and they are pricked mainly by the fact that hitting the torso means nothing, such as a crust, and carbide or pierce the area.
Seto, who was waiting nearby as Ray's escort, unwittingly throats at that figure, which in a few seconds of the thing turned into what could be termed a black-baked of sasori.
I guess the fragrant smell drifting around stimulated my appetite.
Ray strokes his neck with a small grin at how Seto looks like that.
"It hasn't been an hour since you had lunch. Just be patient."
"Gru......"
To Ray's words, Seto, who unfortunately drops his neck and squeals.
Seeing one and one like that, the three Preades once again raise their exclamation.
"I didn't expect to lightly defeat the Grand Scorpion like this. Even if it looks like this, it's a Rank D monster, and in this basement, on the 11th floor, it dominates the top of the ecosystem."
"I don't have that many problems with Rank D. Even if it looks like this, it's rank B. I just made it Elaine, and she won't struggle with monster opponents that are about rank D or rank C."
"Sure, maybe, but still, you can't be alarmed."
To Ray's words, shake the jointed sword sharply and sasori...... Elaine pinches her mouth so as she shakes off the fluids of the Grand Scorpion.
He was a Grand Scorpion who had lunch and a meal break in a magic tent and suddenly hit from the sand against a line of rays who were once again on their way to the basement 12 tiers, but the way it looked could not delude Seto's sharp gaze watching from above, a situation in which the intention to ambush him was to be ambushed in reverse.
The avant-garde is Elaine, and the rear guard is Ray. As well as before lunch, Ray, who puts a yellow in his dragon robe, waits in formation so that he doesn't have to exercise hard, and as a result is lightly defeated.
Once Preades and Otis had their own weapons, and at the same time, much of the time since the battle with Sandworm, they had restored some magic to Sharr. I was thinking of following him up, but the battle ended so quickly that there was no need at all.
(Less than a minute from the start of the fight, huh? Sometimes you just get an alias. No, if you think about it, so is Elaine's. acting with an alias Ray but not showing any inferiority)
Preades, who doesn't know who Elaine is, shrugged inside, and I guess that was what not many of the other two thought.
Each of them gazed at each other and nodded silently to burn at least a little bit into their own eyes something called the strength of their standing arms over themselves.
While realizing how those three were doing, and deciding that nothing was going to be particularly unfavourable to them, Ray called out to Preades as he lost four right legs and a pair of tweezers and gazed at Grand Scorpion, who was desperate after being drilled by flaming arrows throughout his body.
"What can I do to dismantle this monster?
"Right, the Grand Scorpion material will also be material as a crusade proof site. Right eyeball. It's a poison needle that can be diverted to weapons and protective equipment and has many uses. Poison needles in particular can be materials for alchemy, adding elements of poison when making weapons, or materials for powerful antidotes. Other parts that create gut poison can be bought up equally high. … but the Grand Scorpion poison is quite powerful, so you need to be careful what you do."
Following advice from Preades, Ray and Elaine will each work together to proceed with stripping the material.
As for Ray, I could have kept the whole body in mysterious storage and slowly stripped the material later, but I decided to do the stripping on the spot because I have corner experience.
Ray uses the knife for material stripping he always uses to remove the right eyeball, which is the crusade proof site.
Just for the eyeballs, aren't they going to crusade two left and two right? That's what I thought, but I took out my left eyeball just in case and convinced myself.
Because there are several yellow spots in the right eye that are close to fluorescent, whereas there are no such spots in the left eye.
"Oh, okay? That spot in the right eye of the Grand Scorpion is crystallized by magic. I don't know why, but it only exists in the right eye of the Grand Scorpion, and it seems to help increase the slashing taste of the alchemy… especially against the blade."
Head to Ray comparing the eyeballs, and Sharr hangs the words.
"Can it be rare or something?
Perhaps only the materials of the Grand Scorpion, which are at the top of the 11 basement tiers, are luxurious. Ray asks as he thinks like that, but Sharr shakes his head small and sideways.
"There are quite a few other monsters that have similar effects. So it's not as fancy as it sounds, but there's still a demand for it to be bought out."
"... I see"
Determine that it doesn't seem that expensive, and throw it into a container like a glass bottle that stores the gut kind removed from the mystering.
"Heh, that container itself is a pretty fancy magic item. You've got good stuff."
I guess I was interested in Ray because I was shown mysterious, magic tents and several magic items that I rarely could see. Sharr was sending an interesting glance at Ray, backwards of Preades giving instructions to strip the material overall and Otis giving advice about Elaine.
"Grrrrrrrrrr"
And Seto, speaking, is burned by Ray's unleashed arrow of flames and his appetizing gaze at the Grand Scorpion lying in the desert with his throat rattling at the fragrant smell drifting around him.
"This part of the jaw looks sturdy... see, if you put a blade along the joint like this, you can cut it pretty light"
"Well, I see. I mean... you know what?
Place the blade of the dagger along the joint near the jaw, as Otis told, and cut it gently.
Even though I was shown an example in front of me, it was so handy that I had no idea who was unfamiliar with stripping the material.
Even then, Ray and Elaine take the demon stone out of their hearts, cut the poison needle out of their tails, and at the same time remove and preserve the gut that creates the poison.
Ultimately the remaining Grand Scorpion is eaten by Ceto for the meat part, leaving only the wreckage on the spot to resume walking.
"No, and Ray's got an amazing item box. Where did you get such a rare item?
"I learned magic from my master."
"... what a fat master. As much as I want to be an apprentice to that master."
"Um, hey, Shar. Even if you were apprenticed by such appetite, there's no way Mr. Ray's master would nod yeah. I'm not going to say anything in this heat."
No matter how much of a magic item your coat will bring down some temperatures, there are limits. The coat worn by the Preades has the ability to lower the temperature by nearly 10°C because it performs somewhat better than what Elaine uses, but in this situation the desert temperature is still better than 40°C, it is only about resting.
Whether you want to buy a better performance coat or not, it is naturally worth the price just because it is not a cheap everyday magic item. It was still cheaper to buy than other cities and cities in relation to the labyrinth city, but there was still a limit.
Desert temperatures, which should be described more as heat than heat, are harsh, even for Otis and Shirl, who are used to acting in this hierarchy. Otis pinched his mouth when he said he was enduring such a tough situation, but he was too selfish about Sharr's words and actions.
But Sharr sighs small toward Otis like that.
"You know, I'm certainly interested in the magic items Ray's master has, but it's more about his ability to coach than that. You saw Otis too, didn't you? Ray's ridiculous magical powers. If I can use that kind of magic, it will increase the power of the party."
"... so how long will it take you to finish that training? How long did Ray train, by the way?
Otis takes the water bottle hanging on his hips and asks as he contains the straw in his mouth.
He carries a bow in his hand and an arrow barrel from the top of his jacket on his back, and he can't let go of anything more than a weapon he can rely on while disturbing such a bow, holding it aside and moisturizing his mouth with water from a water bottle.
Incidentally, the contents of the water bottles of the three Preades had been replaced with water created by Ray with a running water dagger in a magic tent.
Ray flaunts his shoulders small and teases open his mouth to Otis, who tastes the water to be called even the heavenly sweet dew that moisturizes his throat and turns his gaze with care not to drink too much.
"I've been raised by my master since I was conceited, so at least it's been over 10 years."
"... you can't. Or what, Sharr's gonna be out of our party for, like, 10 years? Then go officially out of the way, right? There's gonna be trouble over here."
"Beh, nothing. Until I gain the strength of Ray right now... I'm not going to. Or I'm going to leave Eggzil..."
Elaine looks at Ray when she sees the two of them arguing like that.
It must be painful to let him rub it in this matter just knowing the truth about Ray and knowing that there is no such thing as a master.
Ray, breathing a small sigh inside, opens his mouth as he walks on the sand.
"In the first place, I was forced to travel by metamagic from where I lived. Besides, it's behind a mountain where the place where it lived doesn't even show signs of people. If you ask me to introduce you to my master, I can't do it first."
"... Nah, then there's nothing you can do."
To Ray's words Charles leaks his words in an unexpected sigh.
"You mean you can't be easy and strong. I train spears every day, too.... Oh, I see it"
Preades, who was walking through the desert like a cane with a cane in his hand, eventually squeals so into a familiar sight.
But even if Ray and Elaine turn their gaze to Preades watchers, all they see is desert and rock and cactus, the same sight as before.
"What do you mean you can see it?
So I ask Ray, not to mention Preades walking nearby, what is he talking about? and tilt his neck all the time...... nodding as soon as he understood something and opening his mouth.
"Not just on this eleventh basement floor, but on the desert hierarchy, the stairs that descend below are peeled out, unlike up to the tenth basement.... I wonder why you wouldn't bury it in the sand in such a situation. Well, it's a dungeon around there, so I don't know what. Look, take a good look near that rock over there."
Two of Ray and Elaine gaze into that voice. Then I immediately understood what Preades was saying. A staircase exists that leads to the lower tier next to the rock at the end of the line of sight.
"... and much unexpected..."
Even as they talked, they still shrugged so unexpectedly when they saw the stripped stairs.
