Chapter 65: Pincer Beast
This certainly wasn’t the first time Julian was facing something as weird as this. In fact, this wasn’t so weird.
The weirdest thing he had to face was the steel monsters. If he could survive that, he was surely surviving a wolf crab.
Xea had just told him his armor had the right call to everything. Like when he had needed not to be able to smell so as to pick up chips from the corpse, the armor had come along, and it did so very much.
The wolf crab growled and stared intently and stared at him like he was some prey.
So now, the wolf crab became the predator, and Julian, staring, surprised, was the prey.
Julian almost laughed. Perhaps the wolf crab was too daft to reason, as was the case with all animals he knew.
Julian stared at the wolf crab again.
Ok, his plan was very simple. He would wait for the creature to attack, and when it did so, he would simply strike.
Booya!
Julian stood akimbo for a second there and then realized he had to be serious here. And so, he stood, hand stretched to the sides, staring at the predator.
The wolf crab moved in circle, and Julian watched, not for once scared. To him, he had passed this level. This level of being afraid with something as this.
