Legend

Right in front of Ray is the body of a palm crab with his head crushed.

He was a palm crab that caught scattered eyes in winds such as being destroyed a shell that was also his house, his body seared with flames, and eventually even his head crushed, but if this happens, it's just an ingredient for Ray.

(Well, you'll need to go back to Gosh and ask if you can eat it)

Once again, the scissors area stands out greatly when you turn your gaze to the palm crab.

I couldn't attack Seto. Scissors, but if I hit them, I was sure they were quite powerful.

There is no mistake that the crust part, including scissors, is also sturdy and seems to be sufficiently useful as a material.

"The scissors will be packed with plenty of meat."

That's where Ray ends up thinking first.

Even though I can't eat sand sarpent, I eat palm crabs fine.

If you ask around Augusto, it wouldn't be strange to tilt your neck.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr?"

What are you gonna do with this palm crab? and to a throat-beating ceto, Ray immediately takes out a knife for dismantling.

"Whether you can eat it or not, let's retrieve the Demon Stone now.... I haven't decided yet which one will absorb Death Size or Ceto"

That's what I tell him, and he examines the palm crab's body, which is shattered and scattered by Seto's blow.

Then eventually, from the heart and the place of thought, I discover the demon stone.

"This is it."

"Grrrrrrrr"

"Wait a minute."

Show me, and to Seto, who brings his face closer, Ray takes the running water dagger from Mystering and washes the demon stone.

"Look, here it is"

Not as big as that, but still weirdly Seto is showing interest because he's the only monster he defeated himself?

With a little doubt, Ray asks as he strokes Seto's head.

"Will Seto absorb this demonic stone?

"Gru?"

Are you okay? And Seto tilting his little neck.

I guess I was wondering if I could let Death Size absorb it.

However, Death Size absorbs Sandserpent's Demon Stone and corrosion levels up.

If you had absorbed the demon stones of Sandserpent and couldn't master any skills, you might have wanted them to absorb the demon stones of the palm crabs.

But I couldn't even tell Ray that I wanted more palm crab demon stones that I defeated with Ceto alone than the level of corrosion had increased.

(Well, I acted first to distract the palm crab... thats all I did)

Thanks to the act, Seto was able to ambush Yashigani, but Ray doesn't think it's his style.

That's why I was deciding that this palm crab demon stone should be absorbed by Seto.

"Look, let's go"

Tell him so, Ray throwing demon stones at Seto.

Naturally Seto takes and swallows the demonic stone with a couché.

[Seto says, "Earth Arrow Lv. I 'mastered the skills]

Such an announcement message echoes behind Ray's brain.

"... well, I expected it"

I was preventing Seto's attack with a wall made of sand, so I was sure I could say I could attack the dirt system.

Given that, I guess Ground Arrow is a reasonable place.

"Now to wind wind arrows, ice… ice arrows of water, and earth earth arrows? One of these days you're gonna get a firearrow or something?

It was a questionable ray, but even absorbing the demonic stones of monsters such as the flame system felt like it would somehow increase the level of firebraces.

"Anyway, can you give it a try? Ground Arrow... An arrow made of dirt has a lot of mass, and I think you can expect an attack."

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr"

To Ray's words, Seto quickly rings his throat and uses ground arrows.

Then an arrow made of five earths rose to Seto's side.

"Five. … Then try shooting me in the sand over there"

"Grrrrrrrr!"

A soil arrow that flies quickly, although not as fast as a windarrow, when it hits the sand, the arrow completely enters the sand.

"... because it's sand, you don't know the power"

"Gru......"

Seto nods again to agree with Ray's words, smudged and murmured.

In fact, if the pierced place had more power than a certain sand, it would have been a sight like it is now.

(or so it's a bit of a use against that palm crab)

The shell could definitely be used as a material, and I was probably supposed to be edible.

Dirting it with dirt is not acceptable for Ray either.

Ray strokes his body saying he doesn't mind Seto looking at himself sorry for his circular eyes.

"It doesn't mean we have to know what Ground Arrow is capable of right now. I'll see you tomorrow. But you can look for a monster and use it for that monster. I want to try corrosion."

Corrosion works when, naturally, the opponent is armed with weapons and protective equipment.

Remaining vegan...... basically ineffective for being like a palm crab where a corpse exists before Ray now.

(Well, if the level of corrosion is above five, maybe the performance of corrosion will increase)

So far, only metal weapons and protective equipment can corrode, but in time, things like trees and skins can corrode.

That's what I'm thinking. Shall we go now, Seto? and rubs my face on.

"Right. Maybe I won't be able to get in the gosh when I'm late. Besides, I'd like to hear about this palm crab. If you can eat ceto, you want to eat it, right?

"Gru!"

Of course! and ray approached the snort palm crab in a vigorously throating ceto, and stored it straight into the mistering.

He was more of a shrimp ray than a crab, but that's not why he hates crabs.

Even as the shell on the backs of the palm crabs was crushed, the big ones were stored in mysteries, and all around them were substitutes such as annoying fine fragments and meat pieces to collect.

Determining that this would be handled appropriately by other monsters if left alone, Ray flies off the spot on Seto's back.

And a few minutes after Ray and Seto disappear... ants show up from the nearby sand.

The ant is not a monster, it's a very normal ant.

That was the only ant that was about the size of Ray's fingertips, even the bigger ones, but the problem would be that number.

A few, a dozen, dozens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of them… that's when the ants who show up one after another instantly flock to pieces of palm crab or… on the contrary, to pieces of shell.

Ant body colors are brown as if they were species living in the desert, palm flesh pieces and shell fragments are quickly covered by ants, and ant-colors are also more difficult to distinguish from the surrounding deserts.

Eventually when the ants disappeared...... there was not even a shard of the palm crab shell there.

If Ray had seen this sight, his spine would have gotten cold.

Ants who are only insects, not ordinary monsters, but in this Ferris Desert they could have been called vicious predators with their numbers as well.

You can't insult an ant, that's what it is.

"Uh... yeah? Is that it? It's about time you arrived... where?

"Grrrrrrrr?"

On Seto's back, Ray squeaks like he's in trouble.

You're flying over a desert with no landmarks or anything, so naturally you can't see Gosh anywhere.

No, there must be a mark. Because Gosh is a city built around giant oases.

But I can't find that oasis anywhere near the heart.

"... Shit, huh?

Even so grumbling, there is no such thing as the grief caused by wrecking in the desert in Ray's voice.

Naturally. Because there's a magic tent inside the mysteries, a dagger with running water, and quite a few dishes in it.

I couldn't have told him to get serious in this state.

Still, if you think there are people waiting for you in Gosh, there's no reason to stay lost.

Desert is a very tough place, and it is also normal to not come back at the scheduled time.

As well as that, if I overtook the scheduled time in days, I couldn't help thinking I'd lost my life in the desert.

In other words, if you're lost on a daily basis, it could mean that Ray died in the desert, too.

In that case, it is only natural that Gosh's guild will contact Guild's guild, which will worry the marina.

"Elaine has a pair of orbs so I can let her know she's safe... but you don't want to imitate that if you can"

Not sure what to do, Ray rides Seto and flies through the sky.

There's a giant oasis at the heart of the gosh, so I thought if it was from above, we wouldn't lose sight of it...

"You can't see anywhere.... Now, what should we do"

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Seto, who was listening to Ray, accidentally rattles his throat.

Maybe you found Gosh? I thought Ray, but what Seto was looking at was on the ground.

And on earth are the quadruple adventurers and thoughtful beings.

Those foursome adventurers are running desperately.

That's as good an expression as it deserves.

It's normal to run slower than it is to be a desert, but those foursome run at a rate that is no different than running on a normal earth.

"Heh... that's pretty quick. So, he's chasing me from behind... somehow."

Ray is just a little surprised to see the presence attacking the Quadruple Adventurers.

Because I was there because I thought I was a Lizardman.

However, there are many different places from Lizardman that Ray has seen before.

Lizardman, seen in a dungeon with an altar of inheritance, had a green scale.

In comparison, Lizardman, ahead of Ray's gaze, has a brown skin color similar to the surrounding sand.

And Ray didn't know about the palm crab earlier, but he knew about the Lizard Man who's on the ground now.

Sandrizzardman. As its name suggests, Lizzardman adapted to the desert. Rank D monsters and rank are no different from regular Lizardman, but they are stronger than regular Lizardman for just being specialized in the desert and dealing with them in the desert.

He also has more than a certain intelligence, just like a regular Lizardman, and it's not uncommon to raid opponents while working with his peers as he does now.

It is also a similar and different species from the Desert Lizardman encountered in Exil.

"... that's how it is."

Ahead of my gaze...... there were a few Sandrizzard men ahead of me where the adventurer was running,

I guess the four adventurers who are desperately fleeing the sand lizard man behind them will not notice just the scales of the same color as the sand.

It may well be that the ambushing Sandrizzard man is also unnoticed because he is ambushed in this way on the understanding that he is very secretive.

I guess Ray was able to notice that simply because he was up there.

"You can get Sandrizzard Man ingredients and meat, and at the same time you can get Demon Stones. Besides, you can even get directions to Gosh, so the option of not helping here doesn't exist."

Ray was repellent for eating sandserpent meat, but for some reason Sandrizzard Man is fine, an objectively inclined preference Ray.

But there is no one here to point that out.

Seto wondered somewhat, but didn't do anything to stick it in there.

"Well, do you want to go help quickly then?... Seto, you ask for Sandrizzard Man, the one in the ambush. 'Cause I'm gonna knock those four down."

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Seto makes a sharp acknowledgement of Ray's words.

Gently stroking the back of Seto's neck like that, Ray jumps lightly off the back where he was sitting.

Due to the height of one hundred meters above the ground, it falls naturally.

But just like when I was a palm crab, I would use Slapenil's shoes to kill speed and land in front of the four adventurers who were just on the run.

"Huh!? Enemy!?

A man in his twenties, who was leading the way, looks at Ray falling and screams reflexively, but Ray doesn't mind that. Death size from Mystering...... not a deep red spear...... take out the spear of dusk.

The weapon Ray always uses is Death Size, but if you're dealing with a human-shaped monster, you've decided it's just right to use a dusk spear.

The adventurers are blinded by the spear of dusk that appeared in Ray's hands from nowhere.

Even in this circumstance, which is close to the limit, it makes you blind… That much power the spear of dusk had.

"If you keep going straight, Sandrizzardman will be ambushing you. My partner's cleaning you up, so... watch me take down the Sandrizzard Man I'm chasing here."

That's what Ray said as he walked past the adventurers, and before the adventurers understood the word, Ray hit Sandrizzard Man with a spear of dusk in his hand.
