Gil and Wade mirrored each other and held arrows at the ready. They looked more determined than ever. "Su, if the slime is minimized I am willing to bet that its slime tentacles can reach farther than it looks. Be ready to block." Gil's inference was a sound one since the slime would normally have a larger body without the minimize skill.
"Walker, you are planning to use your frost whip right? I don't want you running too far forward with the hammer, I don't trust this slime. Calen and Midnight along with Remey, can distract it. But stay farther than the giant slime." Gil's directions were simple but kept them on their toes. His fear that the minimized massive slime could hold tricks was a fair one to have.
"What about me?" Alma was looking at Gil waiting for the order for her to take. She didn't want to be left out in the least.
"Protect the forest, keep the plants out of harm's way and use your blue ivy to wrap them again. That was a great way to use the skill." He had been impressed with the idea to use the blue ivy to wrap the trees in a sort of natural armor.
Alma just nodded and started to whisper to the blue ivy she held on her body at all times. It started to wrap around small saplings and protect them from the incoming enemy. "Oh, Onyx. I want you to sneak about and see if you can find the one controlling the slime. If you can gather any information at all it will be more than we have."
Onyx had been in tattoo form on Midnight's shadow the entire time. At Gil's notice, he appeared from there and melted into the shadows of a tree. He didn't even need to send a reply, Gil knew he would be on the task.
Wade raised his bow and fired an arrow in to the tree line. The group couldn't see where it had gone but there was the sound of tearing foliage and dripping slime. "I caught a glimpse, we have one or two minutes until it is here. Time to put in the work." He raised another arrow to his bow and prepared to send it off at the slime again.
"I can see it too from here, it is using slime tentacles to grab the nearest plants and drag them in to its body. It is trying to evolve not that it is here." Su was picking up these detail from her position at the of the group.
"That is not good, Let's fire more of the arrows." Gil could not pick out the minimized slime and fired his arrow. It flew through the air and landed right on target. However, when the arrow made contact it barely penetrated the minimized slime body. The antidote spilled out over the slime and an outer layer of slime melted away. Bit the slime was not deterred in the least.
In response, a surprisingly long tentacle of slime whipped out towards where Gil was standing. Luckily Su was already moving and easily deflected the attack. "As I said, The slime has a farther reach than it looks," Gil mumbled this as he drew another arrow. Before he shot his, he watched Wade's arrow land on the slime. The result was the same. The little layer of slime that came off was not enough to make a large difference at all.
Walker was forming a longer frost whip after seeing that the miniimized massive slime had a much farther reach than he had expected, even with Gil's warning. His hope was that freezing parts of the slime's body would have done more damage to it and allow them to slow it down and cust away enough of its body to do what they did with the giant slime previously.
The frost whip was used first to send the ice needles at the minimized slime. Walker was having a challenge hitting the slime at the farther distance but still managed to succeed. The ice needles were of the same effect as the antidote wither spike arrows. The outer layer of slime froze and was discarded.
The slime again sent a tentacle out to attack, but Su deflected it again. Before the tentacle could recoil Walker used the whip to wrap it. The tentacle started to freeze but was pulled back leaving only a smaller portion of frozen slime body behind. "This thing is too tough for a slime. I need to try my frost ring skill."
Walker was about to pull the hammer from his inventory when he remembered that both the skill and the hammer would need him t be closer to the minimized massive slime. If he got that close he would not have Su to protect him and he could be the catalyst for the slime's evolution. He bit his lip in frustration and sent more Ice needles at the slime.
"Watch out, I am using my bow's skill," Gil shouted to Calen who had run closer to the slime to start the distraction game again. She heard him loud and clear and was soon behind Su's shield again. Remey and Midnight had been feeling the new opponent out and had not risked getting closer yet, so Gil had a wide open shot.

The wind elemental mana adhered itself to the wither spike arrow with the antidote inside. The twisting green wind elemental mana made the air furious. Wade was holding his gaze on the arrow that had become much more terrifying than he had imagined. It was reminding him of the elven army's arcane marksmen.
Gil released the arrow and it tore through the distance to the slime. It managed to lodge itself firmly within the slime but only about halfway. The minimized slime was angered as the antidote made three layers of slime melt off of it. There were three slime tentacles sent towards Gil.
Walker used his frost whip to stop one and Su managed a double block to deflect the other two. With the minimized slime's retaliation, the group now knew that it had barely been attacking before. "Gil you should prepare another one of those. Walker do you have more of those mana potions?'
Remey spoke up since she had been keeping hard track of the mana potion usage. "Yes, we have enough for Gil to freely use that skill. But it won't last forever." She was worried that she had not done enough to prepare the party. Mana was always their biggest weakness when it came to a battle.
"Already on it." Gil had another arrow notched and the wind elemental mana forming to it. He wanted to pierce deeper in to the slime and destroy the core. He poured more mana in to the skill this time forcing the wind to stir in to a gusting whirlwind around him.
Wade shot three arrows at the same time at the slime making it attack him with the slime tentacles first. Su was able to defend the grouped up tentacles and leave Gil with a perfect opening.
The arrow was moving much faster than the previous arrow and landed in the slime penetrating almost completely. The wind elemental mana ran rampant and tore of drops of the slime. It was nothing major but enough to make a small difference. The antidote was spilling in to the slime and parts of its body melted away again. It was trying to respond to the threat but when it was about to send out more slime tentacles Calen was there antagonizing it with a rotting stick.
Alma was busy making her blue ivy grow at a furious pace. She had drank the last mana potion she had taken from Walker and was using every last mana to do the most she could. She would soon be low and need another potion, but before then she would wrap another tree in ivy. She continued to move getting slightly close to the slime.
Calen poked the slime to distract it and cause a slime tentacle to whip out at her. She used her speed to get out of the way in an instant. Unfortunately, Alma was behind her and the slime tentacle was about to make contact. When she noticed this she was much too late to move herself. She was about to be hit with a full force slime tentacle.
Wade had seen this and moved before thinking. He had only the thought of protecting the potential next queen of the forest elves. He could not allow her any injury on his pride as an elf. This was all that drove him as he dove to push Alma out of the way. The tentacle found a new target and slammed in to Wade.
