I ducked beneath his first swing as he closed in, but I couldn’t avoid the follow-up hit. His second swing scraped off the armor on my shoulder and struck my chest.
Ouch!
Beyond the momentary pain, I was almost grateful for it, because the strike knocked me further out of his reach.
Well, that’s somewhat fortunate, I guess, as long as he doesn’t have more chain to extend his reach with.
Some of my bugs managed to squeeze inside the slots where his weapons had emerged.
Ooh! Now this is more promising.
The spaces didn’t perfectly match the bases of the blades, and the bugs were small. There was nothing organic inside the sheaths. Even the interior was completely sealed off.
But yeah, can’t have water or something get in there, let alone bugs.
Still, I managed to get bugs into the mechanisms, lodging their bodies inside the finer workings or killing one another to spill ichor and their bodily contents onto anything that felt sensitive.
Nice!
