OBS Chapter 328 Crab Man on the Beach
Chapter 328 Crab Man on the Beach
Crabman is a very primitive humanoid creature.
They usually have an upper body similar to that of a crab, with two eyes supported by a pair of stalk-like organs and placed far outside the head, making them look like they are holding two spherical lanterns.
Its habits are actually not much different from those of crabs. It likes to lurk on the warm coast, lazily hiding under the fine sand, waiting for prey to come.
What makes them different from crabs, besides their size of more than ten feet, is the number of their limbs.
Crab people have a pair of sturdy lower limbs that are strong enough to support their one-ton bodies;
But apart from the iconic large claws on the upper body, the crab man only has a pair of slender and dexterous arms, instead of having eight legs like a crab.
This allows them to make some precise grasping moves.
Now, the pair of slender arms covered with shells were holding Ivan's collar from behind.
Faced with Ivan's shouting, the crab man who caught his prey was obviously stunned for a moment.
Its low intelligence does not allow it to have language.
The strange creature that it was holding in the air was shouting something incoherent, but it couldn't understand anything at all.
But Kong Er understood.
The orc who was missing an ear jumped up from the ground and hit the crab man's head with two baseball bats one after another.
Due to his height, the 1.9-meter-tall Hollow Ears really had to jump to hit the 3-meter-tall Crab Man.
This orc is shorter and thinner than his peers, but his jumping ability is amazing.
A fine gold stick hit the crab man's head, breaking a piece of the shell covering his head and entire back.
But this cannot cause the Crab Man to suffer a fatal blow.
Living on the dangerous northern shore of the Moon Sea, the crab people have encountered more terrifying enemies, and this kind of attack can only temporarily slow down its attack speed.
But then, another stick swept from right to left and hit the crab man's eye stalk.
The sturdy magic-destroying weapon, coupled with the terrifying force of a sword master, directly cut off the two organs hanging on the eyeballs, plunging the crab man into endless darkness.
Apart from the hard outer shell, the crab man's eyestalks are filled with nerves that transmit visual signals.
The intense pain finally caused the crab man to let go of the prey in his hand. He waved his huge claws frantically, trying to fight back against the enemy who had blinded him.
But Kong Er was a swordsman known for his speed after all. He had already pulled Ivan up and retreated to the middle of the beach.
"What terrifying creatures! They were so badly injured, but they didn't even make a sound..."
Looking at the big crab in front of him that had lost both eyes and half of its head, Alvin said with lingering fear.
"Because they have no vocal organs, idiots—"
Kong Er stared ahead with a serious expression.
Although it was the first time he encountered a crab man, the teachings from Broken Tooth made Kong Er very aware of the horror of this kind of creature.
For melee professionals, crab people are very powerful.
The most common crab people are much stronger than most low-level warriors.
Broken Tooth once said that during the time he traveled around the continent, he encountered crab people who, due to population pressure, came out in full force to massacre the human towns on the seaside.
Those terrifying creatures were swift and powerful. The human town defense force was as vulnerable as paper in front of the crab-man army of equal size.
Kong'er glanced at the crab man who had lost his eye stalks, and then continued to focus his attention on the suspicious dark brown stones on the beach.
The churning of the beach just now made him afraid to focus entirely on the crab man who was trying to capture Ivan.
Because crab people live in groups.
……
"Lord Xiuman, it is an honor to have a meeting with you in this peaceful manner."
Liz Toomba changed out of her noble armor and wore a collared shirt and tight leather pants like a male noble.
She put a slightly smaller noble coat on her arm and was about to hand it to the maid who was walking towards her.
For today's meeting, the top leaders of Tomba's family discussed for a long time before deciding to let Lizzie, a young woman who is extremely outstanding in both martial arts and strategy, attend on behalf of old Tomba.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Toomba.
It was also very easy for me to finally meet the first heir who had managed Tomba to be extremely powerful right under my nose."
Xiuman bowed very politely.
But the forced smile was far less warm than when he received ordinary people in the city hall.
The young city lord still has some resentment.
In the council of Brilliant City, the old man from Toumba kept tripping himself up;
And in Nield, it was this blonde chick who was getting herself into trouble.
Isa, who had always been with Xiuman, naturally knew the whole story.
While walking to the door to hang Liz's coat, she cast a questioning look at Shuman and made a throat-slitting gesture in front of her white neck.
With a subtle wave of his hand, Shuman stopped his maid's sinister plan, and invited Liz to sit at the familiar desk.
"Since Miss Liz is willing to step forward, can I understand that the conflict between Toumba and Huiyao City has been resolved?"
Signaling Isa to put down the dagger and replace it with black tea for the guests, Xiuman tapped the teacup with his fingers and looked at Liz opposite him with a smile.
“Lord Xiuman, I thought the younger generation of nobles would no longer use the roundabout methods of the older generation.
Or, let's turn the page decently -
All of Tomba's previous actions were wrong moves made under the instigation and deception of your old butler, who was confirmed to be a believer of the Outer Gods.
Indeed, he took advantage of Tomba's greed.
We have paid enough sincerity and price to reconcile with you."
Nodding, Xiuman knew very well what the blonde girl meant by sincerity and price.
It's nothing more than the food compensation to Nield and participating in the defense of Nield.
As for whether the old butler Todd really fueled the incident, Shuman didn't believe a word of it.
Before he took over the position of city lord, Tomba was the most troublesome member of the parliament.
“Agreed, Miss Liz, let’s have a frank chat.
Huiyao City is now under the shadow of the plane war. If the half-dragons or something else launches an attack again, I think we will all become the front line.
You helped Alvin and I hold down Nield, and then what?
What role do you, or Tomba, want to play next? "
