Ryan and Furball eventually reached Uruguay. A small country was located between Brazil and Argentina. While that wasn't such an important detail, Ryan couldn't help but notice and think about it because he only found Iron Scorpions on the borders. Weirdly enough, they seemed to be marking the border's position since their number was pretty high, and they were forming something like a wall.
"This is weird… but if a dungeon master can create several dungeons on the same planet, that would explain the high number of scorpions," Ryan concluded.
"You are correct. Not even after four dungeon breaks, a single monster species was supposed to be this numerous. In the distance, I can only find the presence of those scorpions."
Ryan never asked, but the ice dragon always used that kind of situation to interrupt Ryan's monologuing. He thought of stop thinking, but Ryan couldn't do that. He already speaks too little since Furball doesn't speak human language, so if he decreases that amount even further… Ryan was afraid that he would start to speak out loud every single one of his thoughts.
Regardless, even though the vegetation around the border was pretty tall, Ryan would be found by hundreds of scorpions once he starts the fight. Moreover, since the scorpions were some sort of barrier, their movements will alert the others. In the end, that will start a pretty long fight. Just relying on critical damage wouldn't be enough since Ryan needed some time for each shot.
"I can help you with that."
Ryan ignored the ice dragons' words. As if he would accept the help of a monster that hadn't been tamed or summoned by him. Regardless, Ryan prepared his explosive arrows since it was high time to use them.
"You will help me move around, buddy," Ryan said to Furball. "You are strong enough to fight them but not enough to defeat more than one at a time. Once your mana and recovery increase a little, we will consider buying you an area of effect spell."
Furball barked in agreement. Without wasting any more time, Ryan used Arrow Shower and made magic arrows rain over dozens of scorpions. While not a single one of them died, they suffered some damage and found him. As soon as that happened, Ryan began to charge Power Shot.
"You really like to use that skill, huh? What will happen once you find an enemy that will manage to seal that skill?"
"That is none of your business," Ryan replied.
Once the scorpions got close enough, Ryan fired an explosive arrow, and the explosion made several scorpions spin in the air while others died. The number was a bit smaller than Ryan predicted, but that was fine since he finished them off by firing Electric Bullets. The damage caused by those surprised him a bit more, so Ryan began to fire them with his left hand.
Suddenly, just before his magic projectiles could hit some monsters, the scorpions became statues of ice. When the Electric Bullets hit them, they died instantly… it looked like thunder and ice were a pretty good combination.
