Wade notched an arrow and shot it directly trying to pierce the giant slime''s core. His arrow was quick and covered the distance with perfect uracy. However, when it pierced the slime''s body it slowed and was trapped within the slime. The party just watched it dissolve in to food for the lime as it started to roll towards them.


    The slime whipped out part of its body like a tentacle trying to grab at them. "Su." Walker gave a shout to the already in motion Su. She raised her shield and clocked the slime tentacle that wasing towards them. Walker was d the equipment had decay resistance because he could see the slime that spilled on to the ground start to dissolve some of the dead leaves.


    "Alma have the trees pull back their branches so we can fight freely. "Calen, go annoy that thing." Wade was already setting up his group in to motion. Alma was frantically whispering. The sound was simr to a torrent of wind ruffling the leaves on a tree. The branched were creaking and twisting away widening the path around them.


    Walker had only a moment to witness the small vines that spread from the blue ivy seeds Alma threw on to the ground. They sprang to life and epassed the trees protecting them from any slime body that woulde off the giant slime. This made the fighting area tighter but would protect the forest from damage.


    Alma fell back behind everyone when the vines had grown, there was a pale hue to her face and she was visibly exhausted from the amount of mana she had just expended on the skills she used. "Nice job!" Walker gave a shout as he started to for a frost whip in one hand. "Remey, you join Calen and make life hard for that slime, when I freeze parts of its body move them away so id can''tbine with them again."


    Remey was already in motion, Midnight followed her knowing that she was also suited for this role. The giant slime would have a tough time keeping focus on the three since it was not a naturally intelligent creature. Walker left Gil with Su and Wade since they needed the protection to safely fire off arrows. The sooner they managed to pierce the core the better.


    His approach was swift and he sent a pulse through the frost whip hitting the giant slime and freezing a small part of its body. Calen had picked up a small stick and was poking the slime on the opposite side. The slime tentacles whipped out toward her but she had already moved to the left.


    Remey was the next to get to the slime and jumped in to the air. She used a hammer fist in her descent to the ground shattering the ice and forcing it to spread away from the giant slime. Midnight dashed around kicking dirt up on to the shards to cover them as they would melt. The two were perfectly in sync with Calen who was already poking the slime with a dead twig to get its full attention.


    Walker sent his frost whip at the slimeing in to contact with its body. He knew he didn''t have the mana pool to freeze it but he could still take a chunk off of it first. With a sizeable amount of mana, he sent arge pulse through the frost whip. The water elemental mana was drawn to the spot the first whip had contacted the giant slime and quickly froze arge chunk of its body.


    The chunk of ice was too heavy for the slime to keep attached and dropped to the ground. The slime sent out a tentacle towards Walker but he had already released the frost whip and was ten steps ahead. His draconic crusher was pulled out of the inventory and gathering the water element.


    With a swift swing, Walker came down with an elemental smash which crashed in to the giant slime''s body. It had almost no resistance but became lodged in side the body. However, Walker knew that the attack was not done. The gathered water elemental mana spread and caused anotherrge chunk deeper in the body of the giant slime to freeze and fall from its body. Walker easily freed the draconic crusher and put it in his inventory. The weight couldn''t affect him if it was in his inventory and with his fighting style evolving it was the practical maneuver.


    He backed off as the next slime tentacle came towards him and narrowly missed his arm. If he had been too slow he would have been affected by the decay and needed to use an antidote potion.


    While Walker backed off and prepared another frost whip he watched as Remey and Midnight each pursue one of therge chunks of frozen slime body. They were able to get near them without worry due to Calen''s distractions. Midnight and Remeuy had been training together in secret and had be a much better tag team of front line fighters. Unknown to Walker the two would train in the night to enhance their ability to see in the dimmer areas like the forest.


    Midnight made arge leap and swung out with her tail. The skeletal armor skill she had made her tail a much sharper and deadlier weapon. Walker nearly stopped in his preparations due to his surprise as Midnight''s tail seemed to gather a grey skeletal flow and shatter the chunk of ice. The shards were sent far from the giant slime so that it had no chance to recover them as they melted.


    Remey was right with Midnight and stepped hard with her foot. She twisted and shouted out loud. "Round House!" No one knew why she had shouted but in the next movement her speed seemed to double and he heel crashed in to therge chunk of ice. It shattered and flew far from the slime. With their attacks done the two retreated tandem returning to a safe distance.


    "Don''t think I won''t be asking about you twoter," Walker yelled this at the two who had kept new skills hidden from him. Walker may believe in allowing his party the privacy of not going through their skills constantly, but he was very surprised by these new skills.


    His frost whip was sending another three ice needles at the giant slime and Calen was already getting it to send a tentacle in the same direction as the needles. The needles his and froze the base of the tentacle causing it to fall to the ground in a narrow slime puddle. The giant slime had be unbnced and lost a significant amount of its mass.


    Gil and Wade had been waiting for this chance to fire their next arrow. The two arrows they released flew side by side at the thinnest part of the slime''s body aiming for the core.The dark purple core was thrumming with its mana as it tried to pull its body back together on instinct. The two arrows had less resistance and easily pierced through the body cracking the slime core. The built up darkness mana that caused the slime to have the decay properties was released and dissipated while the slime itself started to slowly melt in to arge slime puddle.


    "W aren''t done, let''s get that puddle buried so we can prevent small slimes from forming." Walker was already in motion using his grande elemental maniption to create a hole for the slime to pour in to. The rest of the group started to kick dirt down on top of it while Remey, Calen, and Midnight were covering up the melting ice shards. They had it all taken care of in less than an hour. The group was visibly tired but happy to have dealt with a quick growing enemy.


    ''Giant decaying slime defeated.


    75 exp multiplied to 750 exp.''


    Gil looked unhappy with this but he couldn''t argue since he knew the system was taking in to ount the fact that it had a massive weak point; its core. The only reason he expected more experience points was the fact that it had decaying effects in its slime body.


    Walker looked at Remey and Midnight who looked to be talking each other up after using their new skills to show off. When the pair felt that Walker had his gaze on them, they were instantly caught in a silent state. Su and Gil joined Walker in his hard gaze making the two look very embarrassed. Onyx had been facilitating the conversation between Midnight and Remey was also joining the staring contest finding it very amusing. "Fine fine fine. We will tell you about the skills. We didn''t want to make a big deal over it."
