Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 Episode 4 recap

Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 Episode 4 is titled ‘When Humanity Dreams Of The Impossible And Takes To The Skies.’ The episode sees Arthur Pencilgon successfully convince the four clans to form an alliance, with everyone agreeing to cooperate.

Later, when asked why she decided to do this, Pencilgon reminds her clan members that despite potential discoveries about Rabituza and Bahamut, their group still holds a strategic advantage. After the meeting, the Wolfgang clan members go their separate ways.

Sunraku, feeling under-leveled since his fight with Wezaemon, decides to face the Crystal Scorpions again. Using his previous strategy of teleportation to avoid the Scorpions’ self-destruction, he is surprised to find no remains and ends up being killed by a sudden ambush in Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 Episode 4.

Frustrated in real life, Sunraku realizes the game developers have updated the Crystal Scorpions' AI, making them more challenging. Inspired by a falling drink, he devises a plan using gravity against them. Back in Rabituza, he talks with Emul and Bilac, who request he obtain more Crystal Scorpions materials.

He then goes to town, telling Emul to meet him the next day at dawn before setting off for another attempt at the Crystal Scorpions. This time, he lures the creatures off a cliff, securing what seems to be a hard-earned victory in Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 Episode 4.
