Chapter 597: Voice Of A King

Name:Master of none Author:
Walker spotted a large slime that had an ice crystal and a dissolving wither spike arrow in it. Gil had managed to strike it and do damage but the slime had been too large to be defeated after. It was currently slowly losing pieces of its body as it moved to try and attack the nearest golem. 

Walker lashed out with his frost whip shooting more of the ice needles at the ground in front of the large slime. The ice froze on the ground causing the slime to be temporarily stopped. The ice had formed sharper crystals on the ground stopping it from moving but not getting close to the core. 

"You lazy dwarves. Move your sorry bodies and grab the fire hoses. As I the king of the deep caves orders, turn these enemies in to the dust beneath our boots!" The shout shook the caves around them and every dwarf appeared to become even more powerful as they retreated and rushed in to different buildings. 

"You're the hero leader that blunt girl said was out here? You may be using water to attack but you don't seem strong at all." The dwarf that spoke and had yelled was the most muscle bound and strong dwarf Walker had seen yet. 

The dwarf wielded the largest pick axes he had ever laid eyes on. The two were easily held in each hand by the dwarf making them appear to weigh nothing. The boots and heavy metal gear were perfect for knocking aside the rocks that would fly up with every strike of these pick axes. The dwarf himself had no facial or head hair and instead had an intricate rune pattern tattooed on him. 

"Think I can use something other than water then? Would lava be too much?" Walker was annoyed but also felt that the words of this king of the deep caves were echoing through him. 

"I don't care what you use. Those who fall under me work for their lives every day. If you are here to help then you will work too. Use everything you have and hold nothing back. I wouldn't have listened to that girl otherwise. Her punches were straight and true, a good kid for sure." 

The dwarf king of the deep caves was flexing his neck. Walker didn't even pause after hearing that Remey had punched him. To be fair he knew Remey might act this way if there was a dwarf that pushed her, but he couldn't have expected her to punch a king. 

"I will show you some heat then, I hear dwarves are strong enough to tolerate it." Walker used his lava fissure skill and the ground began to shake. He was able to manipulate it so that the cracking ground was not too destructive but it was still large enough to allow the large slime to fall in. 

The lava was not present right away but in a few moments the heat became clear and the lava burst in to the fissure. Walker manipulated it to burn hotter and hotter until the large slime had started to flex in to many different shapes trying to escape. The slime tried to thrust parts of body back up but failed due to the heat burning away its body constantly. 

As soon as the core was visible it cracked and fell in to the lava itself. "I have more though!" Walker felt that his mana was running low but refused to stop. The golems were still holding back the slimes and Gil was nearly out of arrows at this point. 

Walker sent some of the lava lances flying from the lava fissure. It cost him less mana due to the existing lava which allowed him to use more at once. The lava lances he sent flying from the fissure pierced through another large slime causing more damage than the ice from another of Gil's arrows. The burning scent covered the area as the lava cooled while in motion and pierced the giant slimes core. 

"All golems retreat and make way for the hoses!" The dwarf king called out and the golems headed his orders. Gil and Midnight rushed to meet Walker along with the crossbowmen and the royal guard who had taken minor injuries so far. 

The miners had placed down their pick axes and looked to the slimes that were left in the immediate area. The raised large hoses that could easily make any fire die out and opened valves. 

Water mixed with a full barrel of Remey's basic potion drowned the slimes around them causing almost all of them to dissolve and melt away. The lava fissure rapidly cooled and turned in to a pool of basic potion water. 

Walker retreated with the others farther back along with the dwarven king of the deep caves. "I liked your fire better than your water. It was much more like a forge than ice. Stick with it and I might let you stay around longer than this fight." The king turned and entered the same stone building Remey had gone in. 

The basic water had ended all of the struggles and the golems were face toward Walker awaiting orders. "All golems, patrol the perimeter for more enemies. If any are found sound the alarm!" Walker's voice was enough to cause all the golems to move out and the remaining dwarven miners coming from the passageway to rush to the mining base. 

Many of those with hoses stopped the flow of water and carefully looked over the area for any remaining cores to crush. "That was a loud welcome. But I think we still have a lot more to do." Gil looked around at the base of operations and out at the massive expanse of caves. It was clear that there were many passageways and mines that would need to be cleared. They wouldn't be done with this as fast as they hoped.
