Chapter 351: 351: Final Preparations

Walker pulled the wither spike arrows from his inventory and placed them in front of the excited archers. "Gil can show you how to fill the arrow head with the antidote potion. I am going to make sure everyone is full on mana and health points before we get in to battle." Walker started to pull out some of the potions Remey had made and placed them around so anyone in need could take them. 

Alma grabbed a low tier mana potion and smiled at Walker, "That was a lot harder than I thought it would be. But your earth magic can really create some great traps." She had been impressed since she had not met many elves that used earth magic. The simple reason being that earth magic could damage tree roots and was a frowned upon practice. Those who did develop the skills for it would usually leave the city to travel or dedicate their lives to small acts of earth magic for growing new plants.

"It really wasn't that amazing. I just did what I could." Walker thought for a moment as he also took another one of the lower tier mana potions to drink. He wasn't that low on mana but he wanted to try and store one more mana in his body with his mana bank skill before the fight.

The heat he had felt from the first attempt he had using the skill returned. His body felt like it was being forced in to a feverish state. The skill was still too much for him to handle and Walker felt as if he had been defeated. He had achieved the skill but could not properly use it with his body. 

"Are you training to store mana in your body?" Alma spoke up surprising Walker who had crossed his legs in to a meditation position.

"Yes, how did you know?' The curiosity was plain on his face. 

"We have some elves who meditate and commune with natural mana in a similar way. They can absorb the natural mana flowing through the first by doing what you look to be doing. The thing that worried me  is you don't look like you have trained your body to hold it." 

"Wait, you know how the skill works and what I need to do to use it?" Walker was instantly enamored with the new information. This was a problem that had been on his mind he wanted to solve. If he was able to solve the could better practice the possibility of using the combo fighting style Remey wanted him to learn. 

"Of course I do. There are a few different races that use different methods, but they all stem from physical training. Your body is too young. It is the same training a lot of the enforcers do, but the key is to make your mana flow through your body as you do it. After years of doing this, your body will be able to store mana in every single part." Alma was happy to share her knowledge. She had long learned things like this that would end up being excess information because no one ever seemed to ask, but as he daily training she had strived to learn it anyways.

Walker's face dropped, he had hope that it would be a quick training method he could learn before the fight. "I see, well when we beat this minimized slime I will start to train like that. If I could bother you to share more details I would be happy to share some of my knowledge in return." Alma and Walker were having their own little meeting while Gil and Wade were focused on the arrows. 

"So when the arrow head is twisted open like that it can fill itself with liquid. Then when it hits a target the liquid seems out through small pin holes in the spike?" Wade was making sure he understood the principle of the arrow. He had some similar arrows but none that could be used in such an effective manner. 

"You got it. We have a blacksmith visit and I asked for a special kind of arrow. This is the result. I think it is a master piece." Gil was happy to show off. He was the only one in the party that mainly used a bow. Oftentimes he would hope that Walker would take an interest but he knew that would not happen because Walker would not do something to unbalance the party. 

"And you used the wither wood tree as the arrow shaft? How did you manage to get them? They are usually pretty rare around here since they kill off any other plants around them to grow." Gil was surprised that it was a rare tree in a forest, however when Wade explained that they kill off the other plants around them this made perfect sense.

"We went to an auction and I saw them. That was a long time ago. Coincidentally I also got the arrow head materials at an auction. If you want I can trade some with you after the battle." Gil wanted to be friendly and try to get some arrows made by elves. Even the most basic arrow was much more balanced than the ones he would buy in their kingdom. On top of that, he could experiment and try to add elements to them as well, it could be valuable experience. 

"Really? I would have expected you to hold on to these for dear life." Wade was surprised but very happy to make the deal. 

'The skill trap setting has been taken from the trap master system. The user has automatically learned the skill through successful trap setting activities. 

Trap setting- passive

The user will have better luck when setting traps. The chance of damaging prey with a trap is slightly higher. The user will have a significantly decreased chance of harming themselves when setting traps.' 

"Everyone, I just got a trap setting skill, it looks like we are out of time." Walker notified everyone of the development. He was glad to have a new skill but at this moment it was not a huge priority. 

"Really another new skill? How many do you have?" Alma was dumbfounded at the skills she had already heard of and even more so at the fact that Walker seemed to randomly obtain skills just by doing small things. 

"It happens. I think I gain them better when I learn them from people. But the thing is I need the time to ask someone to teach me. Maybe next time I have that free time I will ask around." Walker pondered this only for a moment as he could see Calen returning.

"Just in time, Leader just got a skill that allowed him to know that the slime is in our traps. We are about to enter battle." Su updated Calen who was also ready to update the group on what was going on in the city. 

"Perfect, The enforcers are getting everyone to a safe place. They will send who they can after that is done to help. The queen even said she would be asking for help from the forest spirits. I am not sure if they will help, if they touch the slimes decaying body they could die…" Calen trailed off in worry. 

"That just means we should get rid of the slime before they get here. The forest spirits should be our last defense to save the entire forest. I would rather lose my life than them." Alma was pushed in to action since she knew that the forest spirits helped maintain the harmony of the entire ecosystem. If they perished then the forest could fall in to chaos. There would be predators killing just to kill instead of for food. 

Gil hefted his quiver in to place with the antidote filled wither spike arrows. "No point in sitting here then. Let's move in to position." He had a determined look on his face that he showd to Alma. He was going to slay this slime if it was the last thing he could do. 

"Well I guess Gil is taking the lead, you heard him." Waker wasn't unhappy at all, he was proud that Gil was stepping up and pushing the, to protect more. This was part of their title and they were living up to it every day.
