Chapter 1060 - 1060. Venom In The Sand

Name:Master of none Author:1King_Rep1
Walker used his all around appraisal skill to make sure he knew what they were facing. The black spiky insect was far from them. However, it had a long tail and before Walker had even gotten a response from the system he knew it was a scorpion. 

'Venom spike scorpion

This scorpion is known for the venom that runs through its body. The stinger is not the only dangerous part of its body that can inject venom in to prey. Every single spike no matter how small injects a very toxic poison related to acid. Their carapace is very tough and easily absorbs the sunlight. When the night comes it will dig itself a place to sleep deep in the hot sand so that it will not fall prey to the cold nights in the deserts. The poison is popular for assassins and the body is used for a unique kind of berserker armor. Not many succeed in hunting these monsters due to their venom, therefore, the material is considered very rare even though the monsters are not considered rare.' 

"Stay away from it. The venom it has can hurt all of us. I will use magic and try to beat it before it gets here. I just wish I had water to use and freeze it." Walker could use the water he had in his storage. But, if he did that he would lose water overall and potentially run out of it when they needed it. The sun was already baking them alive and causing dehydration. 

"I will stay at the front. Just take it down before it reaches my shield." Su trusted that Walker would beat it so they could move on. She still stood in front ready to block though. She would take the attack if the scorpion managed to get closer. 

"I'm in back…" Since Alma could not properly attack without major consequences she just fell in to a defensive stance behind Walker. She did her best to keep an eye out to ensure they were not attacked from another side while Walker prepared his magic. 

The eternal orb started to shift in to a spear form. Walker was planning to let the wind elemental mana wrap around the spear the same way that Gil would with arrows when Zephyr helped him. If this worked then he would be able to easily deal with the venom spike scorpion. It all came down to his aim. Worst case he might be able to expend more mana to draw the eternal orb back to him for a second shot. Unfortunately, the venom spike scorpion had narrowed its beady eyes on them as its' meal. 

The wind picked up around them as Walker focused the mana around the spear. He had some experience throwing a spear and using it but that was still minimal compared to his training in other methods of battle. Yet the spear was a good option since it allowed him to maintain some distance even when he was in a closer combat situation. 

A dense wind that gathered around the eternal orb spear partially absorbed in to it while focusing on the spearhead. This gave it a miniature tornado appearance as it was also picking up some fine sand. Walker released a full breath as he used his full strength to throw the spear. 

With a large claw, the venom spike scorpion attempted to just flick away the spear. It saw the three as an incredibly weak group of prey that it would eat with ease. What the scorpion didn't know was that Walker was much stronger than he had been before. It had been some time since he used a spear.

A wave of wind caused the sand t change shape around them. It seemed as if the wind had carved away to create a form of art in a large circle around the venom spike scorpion. Its claw had been shattered and it was barely standing up with the spear lodged within its body. There had been no cracking and breaking sound when the spear hit. Just a large deafening gust of wind revealing the damage done. There was no way any monster would survive a nearly undefended attack like this. 

The eternal orb spear form returned to Walker at the slightest pull of mana. It was bonded with him deeper than anything else. The venom spike scorpion was just a pile on the sand. The interesting part was that the wind that had covered the spear was still dissipating and causing small amounts of wind elemental damage. The feeling of throwing and attacking with a spear was becoming one that Walker really liked. 

'The skill elemental spear has been taken from the perfect spearman system. The user had learned the skill elemental spear due to prior skills and past experience. 

Elemental spear- 5 mana cost

The user is able to infuse elemental mana in to the spear they wield based on their elemental affinity. The mana infused within the spear will leave the spear when making contact with the target and continue to inflict elemental damage. The remaining elemental mana can be harnessed by the user again if need be but will be significantly harder to control due to elemental turbulence in the surrounding area.'

Walker thought that it was a good skill but made a note not to use the mana again right away. It was clear that disturbing the balance around the area by gathering one kind of mana would make it harder to control mana in general. Overall, he was happy to have a skill that he could use here in the desert that didn't rely on fire since it was so hot. 

"Store it away and we will keep moving. I doubt they would live together. Those things seem like a solo predator." Su easily understood the mind of independent monsters like scorpions were. She pushed them to move ahead without any break after Walker had used a skill to defeat it.
