Let’s dive into the highlights of this sun-soaked update! [h3]New Creature：Ice Demon Scorpion[/h3] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31873084/deb885a798cbd16833a04bd5659ca7e77f83c014.png[/img] The Ice Demon corpion is a scorpion-like magical beast that dwells in extremely cold regions. Despite its small size, it possesses formidable strength. Its large pincers serve as both powerful weapons for attacking and shields for defending against frontal assaults. The most threatening aspect of the Ice Demon Scorpion is its tail, which can shoot icicle needles. This creature is imbued with a significant amount of ice element, causing those who approach it to feel an intense chill. Riders must take precautions to stay warm while riding the Ice Demon Scorpion. One notable weakness of the Ice Demon Scorpion is its inability to move while firing icicle needles. Clever fighters often exploit this flaw to defeat the otherwise mighty creature in battle. [b]Skills[/b] LMB：Regular attack. In turret mode, the attack transforms into icicle needle attacks, consuming ice magic stone essence which can be obtained by combining ice and water magic stone within Ice Demon Scorpion’s inventory.
