"Mud Mud Crab, a type of D-rank magical beast that is huge yet incredibly agile."
"Its shell has quite good defense, and its pincers have a strong biting force, reportedly up to three times its own strength."
"The key is that, as an outstanding close-combat magical beast, it also has ranged attack capabilities."
"That is by absorbing water from the environment and shooting high-pressure water arrows."
"It's fair to say that in this swampy area, it's completely in its element, a warrior with high attack, high defense, and agility!"
Sounds like this magical beast is an all-rounder besides being ugly.
Of course, the condition is that there needs to be a water environment.
[Yo! Yo!]
Wang Nuonuo's explanation prompted Leg Yo Yo to resonate.
Just now it was chased by that high-pressure water arrow, hence ending up so miserably.
"I see."
But when Li Pu heard this, he didn't feel threatened.
On the contrary, he almost couldn't resist immediately hitting the Mud Mud Crab's card.
"But senior, my Rolling Turtle also sprays water, and it doesn't need to absorb water."
"Feels like a few bursts of [Big Roller] collisions, and it's done."
Wu Guinan similarly felt unimpressed.
In terms of speed, defense, close combat, and ranged attacks, he didn't think the Rolling Turtle he'd carefully bred would lose to such a wild magical beast.
Li Pu and Chang Shoushang thought about it carefully and agreed with this reasoning.
Both Rolling Turtle and Mud Mud Crab are D-rank, 0-turn LV30, and clearly, Rolling Turtle is more formidable.
"You're wrong, what I just said isn't the most formidable aspect of Mud Mud Crabs."
"The most formidable aspect is... they are social creatures!"
"Look closely at the position where that Mud Mud Crab is squatting, isn't there a small stone cavern, with the entrance blocked by it horizontally."
"It's just a sentinel, guarding the entrance."
"I estimate there are at least four to five Mud Mud Crabs inside the stone cavern."
With this revelation, everyone's expressions became much more serious.
Besides Leg Yo Yo and Bite Bite Flower, their combat power only comprised Scarecrow, Bu Bu, Rolling Turtle, and Mighty Steel.
Their numbers couldn't match this crab nest.
"Looks like we'll need to devise some plans."
Li Pu stroked his chin.
[Grass!]
Scarecrow: Summoner, don't!
Upon hearing the word "plan," Scarecrow immediately felt a chill, even though it didn't have scalp.
For a simple reason, because most of Li Pu's "plans" revolve around one word, that is: Bait.
"Indeed, compared to facing it head-on, crafting a battle plan would be much more efficient."
"Looks like by your demeanor, you've got some ideas already."
His words attracted the attention of Wu Guinan and Chang Shoushang.
Disregarding Scarecrow's objection, Li Pu began discussing his simple battle plan.
[Grass~]
As Scarecrow listened, it stopped opposing and raised both hands in agreement.
Because this time, the bait wasn't going to be itself.
The fast-running, hard-shelled Rolling Turtle became the new first-choice bait.
Rolling Turtle: [NO Roll!]
Once the final strategy was determined, Rolling Turtle, Scarecrow, and Mighty Steel positioned themselves in a triangle formation, slowly approaching the Mud Mud Crab.
Once they were about 10 meters away, Scarecrow and Mighty Steel stopped advancing.
[Roll~!]
Rolling Turtle let out a roar and spewed [Small Water Spray] at the Mud Mud Crab.
Splack!
Though named Small Water Spray, it is a genuine attack skill.
As it hit the shell of the Mud Mud Crab, it instantly created a small dent.
[Crab Crab Mud!]
Turns out, this Mud Mud Crab was dozing off but immediately roared in rage after being ambushed.
It turned its body sideways and then rapidly charged at Rolling Turtle.
The sticky shallow swamp posed no obstacle against its sharp crab legs.
Just as Wang Nuonuo said, its speed is quite fast.
[Roll!]
[Crab Crab Mud!]
The two creatures of similarly large size were immediately entangled in a brawl.
[Grass!]
[Big Turtle... Keep it up...!]
Scarecrow and Mighty Steel loudly cheered Rolling Turtle from behind while starting to flank the cavern entrance from both left and right.
Their main task wasn't to assist Rolling Turtle but to block the escape routes.
[Crab Crab Mud!]
Sure enough, not long after, a Mud Mud Crab crawled out of the stone cavern.
[Crab Crab Mud!]
A second one.
[Crab Crab Mud!]
A third.
Unexpectedly, a total of six emerged.
"You two must hold strong, don't let them escape!"
Wang Nuonuo shouted reminders to the summoned creatures from the rear.
Meanwhile, Bu Bu, who had been on standby for a while, took action.
[Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat~]
Numerous kangaroo silhouettes leaped out all of a sudden.
These Mud Mud Crabs were immediately pummeled into confusion by the kangaroos.
However, their shells were indeed tough; after one wave of attacks, they weren't critically harmed.
Originally entrenched comfortably in the lair, suddenly being ambushed like this, they couldn't help but panic.
So their first response was to run away.
And at this moment, it was finally Li Pu's turn to act.
He raised his right hand and then pressed downward!
Buzz...
An invisible gravity field immediately enveloped these crabs.
[Crab Crab Mud?!] xN
Sudden pressure increase made these Mud Mud Crabs even more frantic.
The speed they were skilled in, due to their weight suddenly doubling, couldn't be properly utilized.
[Zone... Forbidden... Departure...]
A Mud Mud Crab trudging towards Mighty Steel got punched back by its giant fist.
[Caocao!]
While over by Scarecrow, more were attempting to break through, three to be precise.
But it calmly controlled with its mind.
Rustle rustle rustle!
A mass of jade-like vines twined around these Mud Mud Crabs.
Everyone knows crabs dread being bound.
[Crab Crab Mud?!] xN
Once ensnared by the powerful vines, they immediately lost their ability to resist.
Then Scarecrow booted each one back into the gravity field.
"Hurry up, can't hold on much longer."
Li Pu rubbed his temples, signaling Bu Bu to quickly deliver damage.
[Eat Eat!]
Bu Bu, with half a carrot between its teeth, saluted, then launched the second wave of kangaroo bombardment.
[Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Hurry Eat!]
Bang bang bang bang bang! xN
[Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat Eat So Tasty!]
Bang bang bang bang bang! xN
Such repeated volleys made even these Mud Mud Crabs' shells unable to withstand much longer.
[Whoa Crab Crab Mud!]
As the first Mud Mud Crab jumped three feet in place and flipped in mid-air, belly-up and dead.
The other Mud Mud Crabs subsequently got taken out one after another.
[Eat Eat Eat!]
Bu Bu hopped twice in celebration of its prowess, splashing mud everywhere.
"Phew..."
Li Pu wiped his forehead, feeling slightly dizzy.
Continuously utilizing [Gravity Field] was still too draining at his current level.
But this doesn't matter because next comes the joyful time of collecting loot.
