Another World Mall Chapter 416 High Ground

"!!!"

Clovis slashed through the scorpion, taking a peek at what was waiting for him after passing this section.

Between this section and the stairs, there was a short gap with an open space. It ant they were waiting on that open area, which was easy to see.

That was when he saw multiple flashes in his vision. Multiple figures were lining up in front of the stairs as if they were waiting for them to co out. At the sa ti, every single one of them was actually bigger than this narrow path. It could be said that they were waiting in that open area because they couldn't fight in here.

The worst part was that they were at least Tier 3. He felt like there would be a Tier 4 since it was the only existence that could order all these scorpions.

"Give a break." Clovis gritted his teeth. Because of that warning, Clovis ended up stopping in his position. While cutting down the scorpions, he had to think fast before they were trapped inside here.

"Clovis!" lody called his na out loud as if telling him that they had no choice but to fight those beasts. "Take this!"

Clovis was startled and caught a magazine. It was a pistol magazine, but when he saw the cartridge at the top, he understood what she wanted.

This bullet was a Tier 3 bullet. Coupled with a pistol, they should be enough to kill a Tier 3 beast, even if they were quite tough.

lody also took out the Tier 3 bullets for her shotgun, increasing her firepower trendously.

It had been a while, but Clovis had three weapons. Due to all the increasing skills for his swordsmanship, he had been neglecting his pistol. However, his pistols were always there to either distract the opponent or save him from danger.

And this ti, it was the perfect chance to use it again.

He stuck his short sword on his arm while taking out his pistol. He skillfully changed the magazine, but before going, Clovis bit the pistol while extending his hand to lody. "Greae(Grenade)!"

lody imdiately tossed it to him.

As soon as he pulled the pin, he slashed the scorpion in front of him. He then tossed the grenade over the scorpion.

It landed on the open area, which was still surrounded by low-tier scorpions.

Boom!

The explosion blew away all the scorpions near the exit.

"How many grenades are left?"

"Two!"

"Use one to help and save the other one. And follow closely! We only have one shot, and let's kill these guys!" Clovis shouted while pushing forward.

He cut down the last scorpion in his way before exiting the kiosk area. As lody said, there was a line of scorpions. Most of them had similar figures, but two of them were bigger than the rest.

'Why is our luck so bad? We have to handle two Tier 4 scorpions in this exhausted state?' Clovis' arms were already numb. It wouldn't be long before he couldn't muster any strength in his swing.

Still, he continued onward.

The scorpions also didn't plan to back down. All of them ran at the sa ti. Like how Clovis' group outnumbered a Tier 5 beast, they were also planning to outnumber Clovis.

Without hesitation, Clovis shot at the Tier 3 scorpion on the left.

The scorpions tried to block the bullet with its claws, but the bullets actually penetrated it.

Clovis and lody used the sa type of pistol. It was made of high-tier materials and used a high-caliber bullet.

"Scree!" The Tier 3 scorpion was moving back, but Clovis continued to shoot it. He didn't know whether it had died or not, but he soon changed his target as the scorpions were about to reach him.

There were seven Tier 3 scorpions and two Tier 4 scorpions. Looking at this composition, the first thing Clovis did was to move to the left side, making the scorpion think he wanted to use that narrow gap to escape.

However, the mont they shifted their direction, a grenade fell on top of one of the Tier 3 scorpions.

Bam!

The explosion instantly killed the Tier 3 scorpion and injured two others. In addition, the Tier 4 scorpion not far from them looked started.

At the sa ti, lody also erged from the narrow path. As Clovis said, they only had one chance. Both of them imdiately moved toward the corpse and jumped over it.

As soon as she landed on the ground, lody turned around and shot at the injured Tier 3 scorpion.

The shotgun didn't completely blast the scorpion's head, but it was definitely enough to heavily injure it.

anwhile, Clovis struck the other injured scorpion with all his montum. The pressure didn't crack the scorpion's shell as much, but Clovis still managed to cut down one of its claws as well as a bit of its body.

After that, he shot its head to kill it.

The other Tier 3s imdiately moved toward Clovis while the Tier 4 beasts tried to stand in their way.

Clovis used his fastest speed to reach the Tier 4 scorpion.

Both of them moved at the sa ti as the sword ended up clashing with the claw.

This ti, the sword didn't manage to break the claw, causing Clovis to stop.

He raised his pistol to shoot the scorpion, but the Tier 3 scorpion that had arrived stung his arm.

Clovis managed to react, albeit at the last second. He just wanted to avoid poison coming into his body, so he shifted his arm a little bit.

As a result, the round part of the stinger ended up hitting him. The impact felt like he was hit by a bull. If not for his equipnt, his arm would probably snap in a weird direction.

At the sa ti, the Tier 4 scorpion that stopped him took advantage of it and smacked Clovis' head.

Clovis tilted back a little bit, causing the claw to graze his forehead instead of blowing his head away.

At the sa ti, it also created an opening for Clovis. He sneaked past its defense and cut the joint of its arm before going past the Tier 4 beast before the other Tier 3 beasts attacked him from behind.

"Scree!" The Tier 4 beast was wailing in pain, but Clovis didn't care. He simply went past it, only to find another Tier 4 scorpion waiting for him.

Fortunately, lody had passed him and positioned herself a bit further. Once the scorpion's attention was distracted by Clovis, she closed in and shot.

Bam!

It actually cracked the tough shell. As a result, the Tier 4 scorpion actually tilted to the side, creating an opening for Clovis.

Instead of attacking, he ran as fast as possible.

It was barely, but he managed to pass the two Tier 4 scorpions. In fact, they used these two giant scorpions to block the path for the Tier 3 scorpions.

As a result, both Clovis and lody were able to escape from this trap and reach the stairs.

However, instead of going to the upper floor, Clovis suddenly halted his step. lody did the sa since Clovis said earlier that they were going to kill them here.

Of course, the scorpions continued to chase them.

As soon as they reached the bottom of the stairs, Clovis laughed as if he had gone crazy. With blood flowing down his forehead, Clovis said out loud, "Hahaha! Co again. I have the high ground now."
