Chapter 998 - 998. Squirming



"If you can you should try and pull that shell over here with your frost whip. I bet you can store it away without any of those worms. To be honest, you could probably just freeze them all solid. But don\'t do that." Gil was pulling one of the wither spike arrows he had charged with light elemental mana. It was clear that this would be a devastating blow to the purple blood worms. 

"Those arrows might not be very good for living and other elemental monsters. But for darkness elemental and undead, they are a poison like no other." Su spoke these words as Gil activated the arrow and let it fly. 

His aim was good as always. The arrow landed right in the mass of squirming mud and rot. There were only a few seconds between the party holding their breath and the flash of light elemental mana. The purple blood worms began to squirm and flair as they started to literally melt in to mud. The light elements mana was dissolving their bodies due to their extreme weakness to light elemental mana. The smell of rot only increased in the area while all of this happened. 

Gil had notched and fired a second arrow even though Walker had been fine with one arrow. There was something in Gil that made him want to get rid of these things too. It might have been the rot reminding him of the undead ruins or possibly Zephyrs\' relation to natural mana since wind elemental mana was part of natural mana. Either way, the second arrow hit, and the pulse of light elemental mana killed off even more of the purple blood worms. 

Ince the mana had settled the entire spot around the mud scale turtle shell was a dark rotting pile of mud. The best way to describe it now was high quality fertilizer. Three was sure to be a lot of future growth after the cold receded. Gil glanced at Walker. "Yes, I will try with my frost whip." 

The frost whip froze in to the slushie familiar shape in Walkers\' hand. The skill formed much faster due to the rainy weather. With a simple flick of his wrist, the whip arched out and landed on the mud scale turtle shell. It froze on contact and Walker attempted to pull it back only to find that the shell was much heavier than he had ever expected. "Now I know why they are so tough. They are heavier than iron." 

"We don\'t really need it. I mostly wanted to try my arrow out as a solution to the problem. We can leave it there." Gil was happy that the arrow had worked against the purple blood worms. Not being able to harvest a mud scale turtle shell that the worms had defeated was nothing that would ruin their day. 

"Let me give it a second try. It would be nice to get it on the way. Not many people manage to get one and we can give it to the wandering blacksmith for his forging." A second frost whip formed in Walkers\' other hand and Midnight clamped down on it with her hand. The two pulling together managed to release the shell from the mud and it popped in to the air. Just before it hit Walker and Midnight he touched it with his hand and stored it away. "See, no problem." There was a single drop of sweat that made Walker\'s claim seem false, but no one was worrying about that. 

"There are more…" Remey and Su had locked in on thicker looking purple blood worms. They had been underneath the shell protected by it and able to grow during their short lifespan. 

"And they look to have found us." Su raised her shield and looked to Walker for what to do. They all knew they had played with fire since these were larger purple blood worms and had hidden under the turtle shell by instinct. 

"Another arrow Gil!" The arrow that Gil pulled seemed to slow down as they saw the large purple blood worms begin to open their small mouths full of razor like teeth and breathe out a dark purple mist. It was enough to rot some of the branches and twigs from swamp bushes and saplings around them. 

Fleur was already melting in to the eternal orb which was fusing in to a staff form in Walkers\' hand. He wasn\'t sure if he would be fast enough to use the light elemental mana and get rid of the mist while also defeating the purple blood worms. It was all about speed on his feet since they had done something they knew was unnecessary. 

The arrow that Gil had just notched was still aimed at the worms but would have no effect on the mist. Walker could only hope that Gil would manage to take down the worms and he the mist. It was not something that Remey and Su could deal with. Midnight also was out of the running since her light elemental breath attack was too weak as of yet.
