"So many shield crabs?!"
Qin Su had finally reached the edge of the bay, seated atop his horse.
As he looked at the dense masses of shells covering the distant beach, his face filled with astonishment.
As someone from Teigu World, Qin Su recognized these shield crabs even without consulting the Monster Encyclopedia.
They were generally divided into Small Shield Crabs and Large Shield Crabs.
Most appeared in humid regions, especially along the coast.
However, they could occasionally be found around certain desert oases as well.
Among them, the scientific name for Small Shield Crabs was Ashigaru Shield Crab, rated by the Empire as Level Three Danger Beasts.
Meanwhile, the scientific name for Large Shield Crabs was Daimyo Shield Crab, classified as Level Two Danger Beasts.
From those names alone, it was clear that in Teigu World, they mainly inhabited Shenwa Island Country.
However, this was Qin Su's first time seeing living ones.
Before this, they had only ever appeared on his dining table as cooked seafood ingredients.
"One Small Shield Crab is worth three points, while one Large Shield Crab is worth five. I also spotted Purple Shield Crabs and General Sickle Crabs."
Susanoo wore a serious expression as he cautioned Qin Su.
"You must be careful. Purple Shield Crabs may also be Level Two Danger Beasts, but they are far stronger than Large Shield Crabs. General Sickle Crabs are even Level One Danger Beasts!"
In truth, Level One Danger Beasts were not especially strong to him.
The problem was simply their sheer numbers, and he also had to divide his attention to protect Qin Su.
"Don't worry!"
Qin Su nodded solemnly before swinging down from his horse.
Although Banetta Warhorses possessed some combat ability, neither of them fought well on horseback, so they would leave the horses here.
