Walker was slightly stunned at the change from the king of the deep caves but understood that he had just been tested. He took a moment to readjust his thinking and decided that there were a few ways to stop the slimes in their tracks.

"Remey has the formula for the potion and we can provide it to those who can make it consistently. I am sure the ingredients can be harvested and even grown in the caves, right Remey?

"

Remey turned her head surprised that she had been included so soon,

"Yes, the rarest ingredient is the batwing leaves but they could be farmed down here in the mining area.

" She knew that they were possible to farm with the correct environment and attention. Since the dwarves were always underground it would be ideal to farm them.

"The potion can be diluted well in to the water and stored. If there is a way to make an easy to carry bag or pack that can spray it then it can be carried by miners to deal with slime when they are found.

" Walker knew that this was not a long shot since the dwarves could put their minds together to create something like this.

"Sounds like you want the firefighting gear. Let me get a pack.

" The king stood and walked to the opposite side of the large stone processing building and pulled a heavy looking pack off a shelf.

"Here is the water tank and the gauge we made to check it. We use this part here to add air and force there to be pressure. Then this hose is attached to a trigger and sprays water.

"

The king of the deep caves demonstrated this and also how well it fit on anyone's back.

"It slows some of the miners down but there are often small fires in the machines or even parts that need to be cooled constantly. Not to mention some materials we mine can catch fire with a single spark.

"

"If that holds up to the basic potion then it will work perfectly. We can start filling them now.

" Remey rushed off to recruit some miners to begin doing exactly that leaving Gil and Walker alone with the king of the deep caves.

Walker wanted to find where Midnight ran off to but had the feeling that she was getting in to some trouble and if he went to get here now he would be caught up for a while.

"We have a particular dead end cave that had a very high concentration of silver ore that we were very excited to mine, that is where some very large slimes have come from. Want to take a shot at it?

"

The king of the deep caves was particularly worried about this cave. It had been a massive discovery but had been abandoned as soon as they found it. There were many instances where the dwarves needed the silver to make their weapons or certain parts of the golems. Having more would only help their people. But the slimes had grown out of control and made the cave too dangerous.

"We thought there was such high density silver there that a silver golem might spawn from the place. If it had that would be the first in the last fifty years, a very good material I promise you. But now we can't even get near it,

" The king was showing a slight shake of anger at this.

"Large slimes keep coming from the cave?

" Walker was worried as soon as he heard this. If the cave was a dead end and had nowhere to go then it would only make sense that the slimes that left the cave would have piled up then left. If they were large then they had to be from an even larger slime.

"Don't tell me there is a massive slime here too.

" Gil held his face in his hands knowing the danger that came from this.

"Massive slime? I take it you have faced one before? What was it like and why do I have the feeling that it makes you two wish you didn't have to deal with it?

" The king was intrigued but also unhappy to see Gils' reaction.

"The massive slime we faced was purple and caused decay everywhere it went. If the slime is yellow this time then it can melt a lot of things with acid much faster. But what we are worried about is that it went even further than massive. How long has it been left alone?

" Walker felt that they were speaking about something much more dangerous than they had expected.

"It was one of the first places the slimes were spotted. Then all hell broke loose and we have slimes coming at our store houses and equipment rooms, and our processing facilities.

" The king threw his arms up in exasperation.

"I bet the slime controlling the others is down there. And I have the feeling it might be passed a massive slime now...it might have become a lord slime…

" Walker was hard pressed to say it out loud. He knew that a lord slime was written as the absolute top of a slime species. They could condense their body and use it in many destructive ways. They would also have the most potent traits of their specific species.

This meant that the yellow slime lord would have the most toxic and acidic body possible for all the slimes and be able to fight the best using it. Simple water and basic potion would not easily defeat it even if it was completely submerged. The party would need to destroy the core no matter what. The only problem was that its core would be stronger than the other slimes due to its strength. The lord slime was incredibly dangerous.
