Chapter 1855 The Magical Use of Beetles (Ⅱ)

The Dreadclaw crawled out of the cave, with a head resembling a vulture, with a curved and hard beak. The torso and limbs were roughly humanoid, but with the characteristics of a beetle. It was covered with a dark blue exoskeleton covered with spikes. The raised carapace is like a turtle shell.

Standing nearly nine feet tall, the Dreadclaw has bird-like feet and praying mantis-like forelimbs, specialized in a pair of huge claw-like catching feet.

With its unique limbs, the Dreadclaw can firmly grasp the cracks and unevenness of the rock wall, and climb the cliff as if walking on the ground.

...

Investigation target: Dreadclaw (large strange monster) × 30

Attributes: Strength 24, Dexterity 17, Constitution 14, Intelligence 7, Wisdom 12, Charisma 9

...

Joan glanced roughly, and found that he had already drilled out of the cave, and there were 30 Dreadclaws climbing towards Cosette, and it was unknown how many were hidden in the depths of the cave.

"Cosette, put down the bottle!"

"OK!"

Seeing a large group of direclaws approaching, their sharp claws hooking on the rock wall and making a harsh friction sound, Cosette turned pale with fright, quickly put the glass bottle containing the fire beetle under her feet, and staggered back.

The fluorescence emitted through the glass bottle was like lighting a candle in the dark. It was extremely conspicuous and immediately attracted the attention of many Dreadclaw monsters.

Apparently, Dreadclaws are very sensitive to light. Even the weak light would make their fragile eyes feel very uncomfortable. They roared angrily frequently, and even left Cosette to ignore them. Shut out the light source!

"Vala!"

Joan chanted the incantation at the right time, cast the "shelter hut" remotely through the "myth link", and used the mutated fire beetle named "hood" in the glass bottle as the starting point of the spell, opened a circle of force field shield, and Ke Seth defended.

In the next moment, two Dreadclaws hanging upside down on the rock wall swooped down, blocked by the force field shield halfway, bounced back with two bang bangs, and hit the ground with their heads one after another, falling with stares in their eyes, holding their heads and wailing .

In the refuge hut, the moment she saw two Dreadclaws pounced down from the sky, the moth girl was so frightened that she closed her eyes and subconsciously crouched with her head in her arms.

The expected attack was delayed, and Cosette nervously raised her head and opened her eyes in confusion, only to realize that she had been enveloped by a spherical force field.

"Dr. Vader, is the 'shelter hut' you built?"

"That's right, before the other Dreadclaws surround you, you should hurry out of the hut and invite other companions to enter the hut, and use it as a stronghold against the Dreadclaws. You can attack when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat."

Following Joan's instructions, Cosette rushed out of the house quickly, but just after taking two steps, she remembered something and stopped her steps quickly.

"Dr. Vader, you use me as the starting point of the spell to build the 'refuge hut', which is equivalent to casting this spell myself. If I pass through the force field shield, won't the hut collapse on the spot?"

"Cosette, you misunderstood. I didn't cast the spell through you just now, but I used the beetle in the bottle as the starting point of the spell. As long as the beetle stays in the house, the force field shield will continue to exist. As for you , You can enter and exit the hut at any time without restriction."

Joan went on to explain: "If I build a refuge hut through you, then you will not be able to leave the hut, and your piano and singing will be blocked in the room by the force field shield, and you will not be able to help your companions fighting outside the room. Being a bystander, and the beetle itself has no fighting power, is more suitable as the starting point for the shelter than you."

After listening to Joan's explanation, Cosette realized why he specially put a beetle into the secret box and sent it to her with great difficulty. Come and assemble with Cato.

When the four of them saw the refuge hut, they guessed that Cosette wanted to build a solid defense base, fight a protracted battle with the Dreadclaw, go back to the house to rest when they were tired, and rush out to kill another Bo, after repeating this, it is indeed the safest strategy to kill all the Dreadclaws sooner or later.

However, everyone didn't expect that Cosette walked out of the hut in a grand manner. Aren't they afraid that the refuge hut just built would collapse?

However, what was even more amazing was that the refuge hut, which was obviously empty, still stood intact behind Cosette, without any sign of collapse.

"Is this unreasonable?!" Evelyn rushed into the refuge hut in a hurry, and immediately questioned, "Cosette, if I wasn't dazzled, you did leave the hut just now, right?"

"Sister Evelyn, it's actually like this..."

Cosette smiled and picked up the glass bottle containing the fire beetle, and told Evelyn and the others what Joan had just said to her.

"Ah?! There is such an operation!" Evelyn's eyes widened in surprise, "As expected of Dr. Vader, who is full of ghost ideas, only we can't think of it, there is nothing he can't do!"

"Thanks to Dr. Vader for helping us establish an absolutely safe stronghold, which made us invincible. The Dreadclaws have surrounded us, and everyone hastened to prepare for battle." Insect Master Jules told the young man beside him : "Wait a minute, Cato and I stand in front, trying to prevent the dreadclaw from approaching you, Evelyn casts spells to attack enemies in the distance, Cosette uses the bard's performance expertise to help us improve our combat power, Patty uses' Confusion Aura' and 'Thrilling and Weeping' weaken the enemy, and one last thing to keep in mind-don't be greedy for fighting, if you feel overwhelmed, retreat to the hut immediately!"

Everyone nodded and took down the instructions of the insect master, and blessed each other with spells to enhance defense and combat effectiveness.

Making full preparations, the Bug Master and the Crabman Monk rushed out of the shelter first, and used "Acid Spit" and "Wave Palm" to surprise the Dreadclaw monsters who were curiously watching the force field shield, and cleared the area for the three ladies behind them. A safe area to stand on.

Evelyn first activated the "Lightning Beam" with her magic wand, and the lightning, like a silver snake tearing through the darkness, pierced through the three Dreadclaws one after another, knocking them all to the ground.

The Dreadclaws who were shocked by the electric shock screamed in unison, and the hard exoskeleton exuded a burnt smell, but they still supported themselves and got up, their fierceness remained undiminished.

"This group of ugly monsters, their lives are really tough!"

The powerful vitality of the Dreadclaw made Evelyn gasp in amazement. She resolutely gave up the idea of ​​directly casting spells to attack the Dreadclaw, twisted her body and switched to the form of a "morphing spider", and shot out a spider web, which would completely shake the Dreadclaw out of the electric shock paralysis. The blame is bound up.

The spider webs projected by the "Transfiguration Spider" are similar in performance to the "Spider Web Technique" in all aspects. The round of tentative attacks just now made Evelyn realize that the Dreadclaw is definitely not something that can be easily killed by a lightning bolt or a fireball, and she must be mentally prepared for a long-lasting battle.
