Chapter 608 - 608. Pin It Down
While Walker was fully focused on manipulating the ice, the king was rushing to get on to and attack where he believed the core of the golem and the slime fusion was. The slime tentacles that had peeled away from the golem would normally have whipped around at the king, but they were slow from the col and partially frozen.
"Walker, make me some spiky gauntlets again!
" Remey was the only available person to push up and help the king. If she drew the attention of the slimes' attacks she knew that the king could attack the core and finish the monstrosity they fought.
Walker manipulated for the ice to wrap around Remey's hands as she climbed up the golem and stood on top. The slime tentacles noticed her and attacked her instead of the slower moving dwarf king.
The tentacles arced down at her and she used the icy gauntlets to strike at them. Their slow speed was easily countered by Remey since her own agility was so high. She managed to slice a piece of the first tentacle off easily and dodged the second. She could see some ice crystals forming in the tentacles of colorless slime slowing it even more.
Walker also noticed this and increased the water elemental mana around the ice trying to freeze the lord slimes tentacles completely. However, they were proving more resilient than expected. He poured more and more mana in to the ice and still the tentacles were not freezing. The only good part was that the slime could only seem to manage two since its' body was fused with the immature silver golems' body.
The king had had enough time to get to the open portion of the silver golems' chest and held his pick axes high above his head. He didn't even look at the battle going on right next to him since it would take away from his mining.
The king brought down the pick axes at the same time with tremendous force. The crack that reverberated through the golem continued to widen as the king brought his pick axes up and down over and over causing chunks of unprocessed silver to fly in the air. Walker could only compare him to the machines they had seen in the processing area.
The tentacles the colorless slime lord was using to attack were becoming more and more frozen to the point that they were almost coated in a layer of crackling ice. They tried to change direction and attack the king but Remey was there before they could change direction.
The king uncovered an extremely dense silver ball with a slime core partially fused on it.
"Let's be done with you!
" The king pierced the slime core then immediately pried the golems condensed silver core from its' body. The sight movements the golem had been making ceased and the slime tentacles instantly froze to solid ice.
"This is our mine! We own this and those worthless pests will never touch it again!
" The king shouted in victory. Shouts similar to his also came from the silver mine entrance where the fire fighting dwarves had just noticed the actions of the yellow slimes become disorganized and uninterested in them. Within minutes they had fended off and defeated the yellow slimes in sight.
"Gil, was it? Never prove what I think of archers wrong again. I prefer to keep my judgments the same.
" This was a hardheaded compliment from the king. He had been extremely impressed by what he had seen here today.
"Now, if you are able to carry this body with you I will let you keep the core. It is more valuable than you believe and we can afford to separate from the core if you do the lifting.
"
The king asked this from Walker who had just released the ice in to water all at once. The main reason being, because he had seen Walker using the inventory and was sure that Walker could store the silver golems' body and carry it up to the processing area without worry.
"I will take that deal. But can we rest first? I think Gil and I just used all of our mana.
" Walker sat and leaned against the golems' body.
"I can't believe we just ended up in a trap like that. The slime breeder expected us. He must have learned from the purple slime incident and called for the slimes he had developed to leave and return to him.
"
"That means there are more yellow lord slimes. That makes me feel less good.
" Remey was less than happy to say the least at this realization.
"That slime had the body possession skill. If it were to do that to anything else…
" Gil caught his breath and reflected on what Walker had said to them when he had appraised it all.
The release of stress as audible in every single one of them who they relaxed and breathed out.
"Now the dwarves should be able to exterminate the slimes easily, but I think you may end up keeping some.
" Walker glanced at Reney.
"Of course, they will keep some. The acid in the yellow slimes' bodies is super valuable for alchemy and maybe even some forging techniques. I think the alchemists will learn this soon.
" Remey was not going to allow the slimes to go to waste. She looked at the king of the deep caves with all seriousness.
"I can make a vote on that. But first. I would like to explore around a bit. I have the feeling there is more here.
" The kings' smile showed that he had investigates similar mines often. He was already walking around chancing fallen rocks and the dents from the golem's arms.
Sooner than they expected the king let out a surprised grunt and knelt down on the ground.
"I told you there would be more. I just found a very valuable treasure.
" The king laughed as he looked in to the small crater left by the silver golems' arms.
