"We should probably move faster. It sounds like there is a lot of fighting up ahead." Walker turned for a second and yelled behind him, "Prepare for the battle ahead. We will assist the miners!" The dwarves and golems behind thumbed their chests in response.


    "I can''t do too much when ites to breaking them so I will be supplying any water attacks you use with my potion. I will also find someone in charge that can start to direct water at the slimes. Maybe there is some kind of holding pool that I can add my potion to so that the water they use can be a weapon against the slimes." Remey had the best idea for the situation they were in.??


    "I agree, you shouldn''t be risking your safety against the acid in the slimes. I think weaponizing the water against them is best. Gil, I will need you on the look out for therger slimes that we may have trouble with. Midnight, do your thing. I want you to help those on the edge. Remey, pass me some of the potion please." Walker stored away one of the barrels of the basic potion while the others fell in the line.


    The royal guard took the lead of the crossbowmen and they moved much faster down to the mining area. When Walker reached the bottom he saw an expense in front of him. There were multiple carved stone buildings with dwarven machinesing out of them. They were all stopped and many gears were half eaten away by the slimes. This was a huge stoppage for the dwarves who would normally run their mining operations all day every day.


    There were multiple slimes that had melted in the puddles of water which caused dwarven miners to rush out of the stone buildings and begin battling them. "Let''s go and help them!" Walker rushed forward with his hands free to create a frost whip. He knew that the ice needles he could fire from it would be the best use in the situation. He would be able to use the needles to freeze portions of the ground and make the slimes dilute their bodies or even melt thempletely.


    "Who are you!? Get outta our mines!" One of the dwarves in front of Walker realized that there were those that were not miners or dwarves around and reacted instinctively. They did not usually allow any others in to the mines, especially at this trying time.


    "I am one of the heroes here to assist your people. The king of the surface and the middle have both sent me here. Now, look at the help we have brought after taking back the merchant district!" Walker gestured to the golems that were spilling from the passageway to the merchant district.


    "Ha! Boys! The fight is on and the mines will run soon. Crush these goo blobs and get back to work!" The voice reverberated off the cave walls making the mana vibrate slightly. Walker could tell it was some form of skill that made the words echo everywhere.


    However, the sound was not what was most important. It was the fact that every dwarf in the area seemed to be more energized and begin to move quicker. "Nice skill. I think I should help as well." Walker used his multi buff skill sending a wave out that added even more boosts to the dwarves and even the golems fighting.


    Walker was surprised for a moment that the dwarven golems had even been buffed by his multi buff skill. It was a good thing to know for the future since Walker was nning to meet the golem craftsmen in the high forge.


    Realizing this was not the focus of their current quest though. They needed to get rid of the yellow acidic slimes frost. Walker whipped the frost whip in to action and fired off the icy needles. They impacted in front of multiple slimes freezing the basic water below them. These puddles were mostly Remey''s potion and water mixture but were quickly bing all salt water.


    This meant that the slimes were avoiding the puddles making it easier for the dwarven miners to crush their cores. Walker witnessed multiple pick axes pierce through the slime bodies and pierce the cores with precision. This only spoke to the great skill that the miners had when it came to their mining.


    Gil was doing exactly what Walker had asked of him. He had found some of the medium andrge slimes that the dwarves couldn''t fully pierce with their pick axes or crossbow bolts. This was causing them to lose their tools and ground in the battle. However, Gil was sending the water elemental wither spike arrows out one after the other. There was a constant stream of attacks from his point of the battle.


    The arrows caused many ice crystals to pop up and cause the slimes to dilute while melting the ice crystals. This broke down their bodies enough so that the dwarves could easily pierce the cores in one or two swings. The rate of defeat when it came to the slimes was always increasing.


    Whenever a slime neared Gil they would be ambushed by Midnight from the shadows, her ws shredding through the slime body and tearing the cores apart. She was being careful to run through the puddles which washed off any of the slime body left on her ws and keep her scales from taking any damage. Walker only nced at her for a moment before looking for Remey.


    He was d to see Remey had made it to therger stone building where there were multiple miners rushing in and out. Her yelling could be heard for a second before a stream of dwarves rushed out in to the battle making it easier for everyone. Walker knew that Remey had just taken charge and sent out more dwarves, he just hoped that she was able to get the water attacks ready since the barrels of potions she had were the key to defeating the slimes.
