The party felt that having their goals all set in front of them was a little daunting, but they also could feel that they were ready to push on them faster. With their morale higher than usual, they were able t cover a significant distance on the rocky trails.
"I feel like we could walk through here forever and still not make it to the mountain." Remey could swear that they were not making any progress in the last hour. She thought that they would never reach the mountain in their lifetime.
"We do not need to get to the mountain. We just need to reach the smoke which is near the entrance to the dwarven city." Su assured her that they were not actually going all the way to the mountain but actually in front of it.
"The entrance to the city should be above ground. It will be smaller than what is below but that is also the center of the trading for the dwarves. Not that we will focus on buying things." Walker was sure that they would see some amazing gear and materials. However, he knew that they could not stop and focus on them or they would end up losing even more time.
"I doubt we will get the chance to wander and check things out. Every time we enter another city someone catches us and drags us somewhere." Gil was speaking a fair truth since this did indeed happen. All of them were thinking that and dwarven guards they met would whisk them away to a king the moment they were in sight.
"I just hope that when we reach it tomorrow we can get a clear view of how the dwarves are handling the yellow slimes." Walker was focused on the major problem that he believed the dwarves were facing at the moment. However, he was not very sure what their real state would be.
They had walked for most of the day and again covered a major distance. The party had not encountered any other monsters on the way. There were many remnants of risen steel skinned worms along with a few signs of the yellow slimes. But nothing alive.
"I am going to stay up with Gil for the first watch. I want to try and meditate on the higher earth elemental mana around here. Maybe I will try and focus on water too if I don't have any luck." Walker had been thinking about this in the back of his mind while they traveled and decided that it was time for him to start to play with the elemental earth mana to learn more.
"Just don't go making too many things and waking us up." Remey gave a warning as she bundled herself up in some blankets and quickly fell to sleep.
"I will take a walk. Just to patrol a little." Gil Was already prepared for the first night shift and watched as Walker sat down to experiment with the earth elemental mana.
Walker was already feeling that it would be easier to manipulate the earth below him due to all the earth elemental mana. He could even tell that the earth wall he could make would be mostly made of harder stone due to the surrounding rocks around.
The first thing he tried was to raise a small round pillar. It was not large and was only the size of his twin blitz sword. The earth had responded to him much faster than he was used to and this made him wonder if he would be able to create more in depth structures faster. He was thinking back to the tower he had made and decided it was best not to make such things for no reason.
He could feel that there were larger pieces of stone slowly moving through the earth. If he had to compare it to anything it was like watching a fruit sink in a cup of honey. He had seen his mother mix these things in the kitchen and the comparison was still faster than how the earth moved of its own natural volition. However, it was an easy comparison for him to make to better understand it.
This realization made him realize that the earth was always moving and most people never noticed it. The air would move quickly in bursts which always brought it to mind. Fire could be seen moving and so could water. The only thing that was rarely seen moving on its own was the earth. Therefore, Walker began to feel that movement below him.
He let his mind delve deeper and deeper fonding that there was also hidden water and fire elemental mana below him. This was a shocking discovery that he easily explained. He had seen wells dug in to the ground and knew that the water would somehow get trapped underneath the ground in its' own ponds.
The fore elemental mana was something that he only explained through the books he had read before. He knew this as lava, magma, and volcanoes. For some reason the deeper in the earth he felt the more fire elemental mana was mixed with the earth elemental mana. This made him wonder just how well he could combine the earth and the fire elemental manas together to make a fusion attack.
This raised the question, water elemental attacks would eventually dilute the slimes acidic bodies, but what of a fusion elemental attack using fire and earth elements? Walker was eager to try this out and gather a small ball of rock in his hand using the high earth sculpting skill. Next, he used his grand elemental manipulation to pull some fire from the campfire.
He guided the two together in front of him and watched as the stones began to take on the heat and easily come together. There was little effort in combining the two elemental manas. Walker could tell they easily worked in harmony with each other. It was the perfect start to his experiments.
