乗のって利用りようするだかだ歩あるき回まわるコトン（Ｐ８２）のようなウッスン。横よこからさわっても、上うえに乗のってもぜんぜんダメージを受うけない。下したが危あぶないところは渡わたる台だいにしよう。持もち上あげることもできないぞ。^[2]		Get on board and take advantage of it. Walking Block is like a walking Thwimp (p. 82). It is not damaged at all even if you touch it from the side or get on top of it. If the bottom is dangerous, use it as a platform to cross. You can't even lift it up.
