The initiative is now in the Yeti Crab's hands; on the surface, it seems she has to defend against the Yeti Crab's next wave of attacks.
However, if she keeps focusing on defense, she will truly be in a passive position. Even if the Yeti Crab's next attack fails, it can simply repeat the same attack pattern, leaving her completely on the defensive.
Therefore, offense is the best defense. In order to seize the moment of attack and counterattack, she must remove the defensive shield.
Gu Xi took a deep breath and removed her protective shield.
The moment the protective shield was removed, her perception of the surrounding airflow became clear again.
Although she couldn't pinpoint the location of the cloaked crab's legs, she could keenly sense changes in the surrounding airflow, and react the instant the cloaked crab's legs approached.
It's here!
Suddenly, the two crab claws accelerated, spinning rapidly like an electric drill as they attacked Gu Xi. Their high-speed rotation directly affected the surrounding airflow.
They shot towards Gu Xi.
Gu Xi quickly retreated.
She hadn't expected the other party to attack in this way, which meant that the method of using airflow to determine the cloaked crab legs might not work.
What should we do? Should she reactivate the defensive shield?
Suddenly, a strong smell of ink mixed with the aroma of meat and burnt food wafted from the crab's claws, but this smell was not present elsewhere.
Gu Xi suddenly wanted to burst out laughing. Why hadn't she thought of the smell earlier? With such an obvious scent, it would be hard for her not to know where the crab legs were once they got close.
As expected, she still lacks combat experience and needs to experience more battles to quickly assess the situation.
However, this Yeti Crab is really clever. She originally thought that the hidden crab legs would attack from different directions, but this crab actually chose to have its crab legs and claws attack from the same direction.
It cleverly uses airflow and focus to conceal its attack intentions.
Unfortunately, this Yeti Crab must not have a sense of taste, otherwise it might have even considered these smells when attacking.
Gu Xi immediately recalled the most powerful Shark King Tooth Spikes into his hands, holding the spikes with both hands.
With a swift movement, she leaped over the spinning crab claws. In the instant she flipped over, relying on her keen sense of smell, she smacked off the roasted crab legs one after another.
The crab legs that are attacked lose their invisibility and fall from the sky.
Octopus!
Gu Xi roared, and the octopus leaped out of the seawater, its tentacles wrapping around the roasted crab legs.
The legless Yeti crabs tried to regain control of their legs, but they were held tightly by the octopus and unable to move.
Unlike crab claws, which have pincers that can easily trap an octopus if it's not careful, crab legs have no such function. They only have spines, so once an octopus grabs them, the crab loses its ability to attack.
Next, Gu Xi only needs to focus on dealing with the crab claws.
While the Yeti Crab's main body currently possesses extremely strong defense, its attack power is negligible. Once its claws are dealt with, we can find a way to break through its defenses later.
However, these crab claws are indeed difficult to deal with. They are not only fast, but also very powerful. Just now, when they touched the ice, they directly clamped the huge block of ice in two.
With that kind of attack power, the spikes would definitely break if they got pinched.
But how does the Yeti crab control its claws?
Gu Xi didn't believe there could be a method of manipulation without a reason. Even mental skills had a principle of manipulation.
She kept weaving through the Yeti Crab's attacks, which were now getting faster and faster, clearly because the failure of her legs earlier had made it anxious.
Calmness and careful observation are prerequisites for victory.
Frustration means the other party is already at a disadvantage.
Gu Xi's sharp eyes keenly observed the Yeti Crab's every move. She used the brief intervals between their attacks to rapidly scan the crab's body and its claws still hovering in the air.
