Chapter 601 - 601. Golem Knowledge
Walker was glad to see the king so happy that the fire fighting dwarves were finding a new way to fight with them. There were also many proud looks from the fire fighter dwarves that Walker could easily see. This was also a nice change the dynamic the dwarves would hold. There would be more value placed on the system users that dealt with the fires in the future.
" My fire fighting dwarves can clear the way and allow your party inside the silver mine. I expect you have some ideas on how you will deal with this lord slime?
" The king was eyeing Walker with a challenge. It was clear the king wanted a well planned attack to ensure victory and the retaking of the mines.
Walker had expected this and had already begun planning.
"If the mine is on even slope with the rest of the caves then we won't be able to flood it with the water and basic potion mix. Instead, we will need the fire fighters to deal with the smaller slimes around while we find a way inside. Gil can fill some of his wither spike arrows with the concentrated basic potion to make a poison arrow specifically for the slimes.
"
The king nodded along with this while Gil pulled out an arrow and took some of the potion from Remey. While Gil did this Walker continued,
"The arrow will be a serious damaging weapon against the slimes inside while I can use the ice and lava magic to slow and break their cores. But what I am worried about is that you said the cave might spawn a natural silver golem? I am not knowledgeable on natural golems or dwarf made golems, can you explain?
"
The king looked pleased that Walker was willing to ask for this information without rushing it. He was also glad that Walker had been listening to his words from before.
"The natural golems are often a rare occurrence based on the materials they come from. Many will show on the surface near the mountains of rocky areas eroded by water.
"
This made sense since Walker remembered the steel golem core that Barry had gifted the party.
"They spawn from very dense ores and stone. A rock golem will be caused to spawn when the dense rock gathers enough earth elemental mana. Instead of forming an earth elemental mana crystal the core will form. It will then pull more rock to it forming a humanoid shape. Over time the golem will gain more mana and become larger.
"
Walker was memorizing every single word as it was told to him,
" Some golems will fuse with an earth elemental spirit and gain sentience. We can not hold a candle to them because they can manipulate the earth at will. Those that do not can grow as large as a mountain, the largest we have ever found made a dragon look like a chicken.
"
The thought of a golem so large was scary but awe inspiring.
"The cores are ideal for making our own golems or creating powerful scepters or staffs. Some can be used for armors but those are dependent on the material the golem is made out of. The reason a silver golem would be so powerful is because we could use the silver golem core to create an undead slaying golem. One that has unique properties from the silver to clear the undead crypts we sometimes find while digging.
"
This caught Walkers' attention. He wondered if this was at all related to the ancient ruins.
"We have found many small natural caves that many races used before kingdoms formed as a place to leave their dead. The world changed by those dead gathered the natural darkness elemental mana and became undead. They are a huge pain since they are much stronger than normal undead but that is another matter.
"
The king of the deep caves finished his explanation and looked at the studious face of Walker.
"Thank you. I will remember that. If there is the chance that the silver was so dense there it would explain why so many slimes have been spawned from there. The silver mine sounds like an ideal food source.
"
Walker reassured his determination to go and clear out the silver mine. To him, he knew that it was an ideal place to start a slime outbreak. It would not be far to say that the slime breeder had somehow gotten a slime there to start everything.
"Walker, the fire fighting dwarves are all set. Gil has his arrows, and Midnight is ready to go too. I have some smaller glass vials full of basic potion I can throw. I want you to coat the ground in water too to make it easier for us.
"
Remey had waited for the end of the explanation and had even prepared herself as well. There was no way she was going to leave herself out of this fight. It was a dangerous battle but one that she needed to be part of. She also knew that she could assist those using the basic potions and even tell them the best methods to attack with it.
"Then I think we are ready. All we need is a map.
" Walker knew that it might be tough getting around to the silver mine without experience in cave crawling. However, he was ready to learn and get where he needed to be.
"Ah, screw it. I will go with you. You, Guard. You're in charge along with those crossbowmen. Protect this place with your life. The hero you seem attached to will need a place to rest after he's done working for me.
" The king of the deep caves stood up and grabbed his pick axes.
"Let's go to me silver mine and take it back.
" The growl in his voice was harsh but determined.
