The beetles were flying in a cluster, so about half of them were turned into mush as they splat onto the rocky wall under Drai's heavy palm.
Seeing this, the other beetles reacted accordingly, scattering themselves around Drai's colossal body.
Drai continued flailing his arms, swatting away any unfortunate beetle in the path, but the beetles were too scattered, so he only succeeded in killing a few more.
Suddenly, Drai shrank, returning to his original size. The beetles didn't miss this opportunity—they all darted toward Drai with their mandibles open.
A flurry of fists splattered green goo across the gorge, followed by another flurry which decimated another pack of beetles.
Drai's punches kept flying as the beetles swarmed him. He attacked with precision, crushing a beetle with each punch. However, there were too many of them for Drai to completely thwart, so he was occasionally scraped and stabbed by the beetles that managed to slip through his defense.
