Juan's superheated cards flew past me, exploding against the Harvester's face in bursts of flame. The creature reeled back, its eyes sizzling from the heat.
I slid beneath it, grabbing a broken branch from the ground. It wasn't my bat, but it would have to do. I channeled Thermal Incision through it and stabbed upward into the soft underside of the creature. The branch caught fire from the heat, but not before piercing deep into the Harvester's body.
The creature collapsed, its legs curling inward like a dead spider.
"They don't regenerate if you cook them from the inside out!" I shouted to the others.
Jaime was a blur of motion, my bat in his hands leaving trails of heat through the air as he pummeled another Harvester into submission. Each strike grew stronger than the last, until he finally crushed through its shell entirely, the bat emerging from the other side covered in steaming blue ichor.
