There were many turns and twists that the party was guided through. Many roads were blocked off by the golems which all appeared to have so acidic damage. The party even passed one that had completely broken down while blocking a road due to the parts of the yellow sli body still on it.
"The golems are not doing well. They have to be barely taking care of the problems here. But I have a feeling things are much worse below ground." Walker was beginning to spread his senses out and realized that there was much denser earth elental mana below them.
These were the mines that the dwarves constantly searched for more and more ores to craft with. Yet, this also ant that the yellow acidic slis were attracted there most of all. This was good for the city so that there were fewer dangers for the residents. But this was very bad for how the dwarves would provide for their people.
If the dwarves could not continue their production and allow rchants back in to the city freely they would lose the goods they bought from the many rchants that left the demi-human kingdom with food. They would also lose the revenue their rchants made from selling their forged and crafted products. It was a massive loss for their entire kingdom.
"Danger up ahead. Please return from the direction we ca." the small golem spoke up to stop the party but Walker had already laid eyes on the three slis that were ganging up on a golem.
He imdiately began to form a frost whip from the moisture in the air. The perks of the steam being so common ant that there was a lot of moisture in the air and the frost whip ford almost instantly. "Gil, prepare an ice elental arrow and try for the slis trying to wrap around the golem. "
Gil was already reaching for the arrow as Walker sent the whip out and made contact with one of the yellow slis. There was a hissing sound as the slis' body caused the frozen parts of the frost whip to lt. However, Walker saw that the water diluted the sli body and so small pieces fell off of the sli.
Gil managed to fire an arrow over Walkers' shoulder and made contact with one of the slis. The result was larger than expected due to the high amount of moisture in the air. The moisture was pulled toward the arrow at a rapid rate and a large crystal was ford which imdiately started to dissolve in the sli body.
This would have been bad if the water was not diluting the sli's body cutting it down to nearly a tenth of the size in a matter of a minute. "Nice shot, try for more. I will try to defeat the slis you shrink." Walker and Gil were a perfect team as they fired arrows and whipped out. Before the small golem could yell at them to retreat again they had diluted the sli bodies to the point that there were only three puddles of acidic water and three yellow sli cores trying the hardest to pull up the bodies they had lost.
"Rey, collect the sli cores before they can gather their bodies. Su, push that golem away from the sli bodies. I will gather more water to wash away the acidic sli bodies and acidic water." Walker was already condensing water from the air while Midnight and Onyx had taken up positions blocking the roads on the opposite sides. They were n the watch for innocent bystanders and more slis.
"The threat has been neutralized. Thank you for the assistance. Please follow the guide golem to the administrative buildings." The golem voice changed and it was obvious that it was soone different taking control.
The party was quick about their clean up and Rey was studying the three sli cores in a large glass flask. She had not expected that they would still be actively trying to control their bodies up to the point that they were fully isolated from them. This was an interesting note in her alchemical brawlers guide since it could influence how the acidic sli body was used for potions.
"Midnight, Onyx, take the back and watch for any slis incoming. There are bound to be more around." Walker watched as the golem that had been damaged was slowly limping away. He used the last of the water he condensed to wash away more of the sli body on it and saw that this showed the magnitude of the damage the slis did in a short amount of ti.
'The skill soak has been taken from the magical washwon system. The skill soak has been automatically learned.
Soak- 1 mana cost
The water from the air is called to condense and fall upon a certain target. This soaks the target with the condensed water assisting in the washing process. This skill is unique to the magical washwoman system due to the fact that it uses mana to condense water from the air. This is a similar skill to the soaking skill of the washers system which enhances the cleaning ability of soaking items in a cleaning agent.'
"Huh, I learned a skill called soak. It's' for cleaning clothing…" Walker wasn't sure what to say about this skill. It was not in the least what he had expected when the system sent a notification. He had expected so form of water related battle skill only to find he had gained a cleaning skill, but he couldn't argue that it made sense.
"Then you are on cleaning duty when we face more slis. I will take care of them with my ice elental wither spike arrows...or what's left of them." Gil was mourning the loss of three more wither spike arrows to the yellow slis.
