Chapter 594: Clearing The Way.

"Alright, is everyone ready to release the water?" Gil had taken the lead in organizing those who would be opening water valves on the pipes. 

The plan was simple, the water pipes would be opened and Walker would use his manipulation skills to hold it in place in front of the entrance to the mines. Remey would add half a barrel of the basic potion to the water making it poison to the acid slimes behind the barricade. Then when the barricade was removed then the water would rush down the stairs and destroy the slimes along with clearing a path for them to go downwards.

"Are you sure that you will be able to remove the barricade in a few seconds?" Walker double checked with the royal guard to be sure the plan could move flawlessly. If the barricade wasn't removed as soon as he released the water there was a risk of slimes or basic water harming those around. 

"Yes sir hero, the dwarves can craft things to a very high caliber I am sure you will come to know. We build our barricades with hidden pins that when removed can cause them to fall apart. It will fall away down the entrance with the water." The royal guard was full of confidence in the work of his fellow dwarves and it put everyone else at ease. 

"Foward!" The voice of the king of the middle echoed behind them with the mechanical clanking of fifty golems. They were lined up coming down the streets while dwarven citizens followed behind in a ruckus. 

"I didn't want to send you down without a proper escort. These golems will follow you and assist in the mission to recover the mines. They will listen to you and your party's orders. This is all I can do without intruding on my fellow kings' rule." The king of the middle had been wracking his brain on how to help without overstepping his boundaries, sending golems to assist was like gifting the third king with more assistance and would be seen positively.

If he ventured downward as well it would be seen as an insult. The three kings came from the best of the best of their areas of expertise. The king of the surface exceeded the skills to properly take in merchants and send out armies and was the inn charge of all surface affairs. The king of the middle garnered the peoples' trust and led them t future strength in their systems. The king of the deep caves and mines was the best of the best in terms of mining and finding resources. 

"Then I will thank you for the assistance. Please hold back. We are about to start the attack on the slimes in our path." Walker said this as he waved to Gil. The shouts to start the water were heard over the voices of the dwarven citizens who had volunteered to push in to the mines themselves. It was clear that there were many who had fled the mines as they wielded pick axes in their hands. 

"Walker, Here it comes!" Gil gave Walker a signal as a torrent of water came from every pipe directed at the barricade. Walker breathed out as used his full concentration to force the water to build up in a rotating sphere in front of him. 

This was the only way he could think to deal with the force of the water as it rushed to him. However, he could feel the weight pushing back at him. He knew he could not keep all of the water elemental mana in check as it grew and grew. 

"Remey, add your potion!" Remey lifted one of the barrels and poured the basic potion in to the sphere of water that grew by the second. 

"My slime poison is mixed in. You are all clear! Crush those slimes!" Remey backed off since the sphere had been made in to a basic potion and water solution. The size of the sphere was nearly up to ten feet tall which was close to the top of the barricade. 

"Here we go!" The royal guard pulled a hammer from his belt and struck the barricade on an unassuming bump. 

The entire barricade shook and cracks appeared as the materials fell away. Yellow slimes oozed out showing just how many had started to eat away at the barricade to get at the food they knew was on the other side. 

Walker saw this and counted to three in his head. He was told that the barricade would fall away in three breathes meaning that was the perfect time to release all the water. 

The yellow slime was letting the barricade fall through its body and began moving forward, but unfortunately for it, the combined mass it had was not enough to hold back against Walkers' attack. Walker used a massive amount of his mana to force the sphere of water he had held in place forward in to the now massive open passage way to the mines. 

The water came in to contact with the yellow slimes that had combined while eating away the barricade and promptly pushed them back down the passage. There were slime cores being dissolved by the second but this was all far from seen. The torrent of water was completely forced down the passagway leaving nothing at the entrance. 

"Done…" Walker fell to his knees unable to keep his breath. The mana he had used all at once would have made him pass out for at least a day before he had gained his recent levels. He could only glance ahead and view the now clear dark passageway before them.

"Now that was some good work. The mana lanterns may have been extinguished by the slimes and waters but do not worry. My golems will light the way." The king of the middle turned to the golems and the dwarves in arms behind him. "Follow these heroes and retake what is ours!"
