Master Of None

Chapter 1001: 1001. Throwing Rot

The entire group was silent. None of them had any idea how they would handle such a massive monster. Current had said that the dragons would handle the mother kraken but that was too much. It was massive and could easily gulp down an adult dragon in a moment.

”If they werenʼt water elemental dragons I would think we were doomed.” Since Gil had food solace in this fact, Walker chose to as well.

”They will be able to deal with a thing like that much more easily than fire or earth dragons would. I doubt they are lacking a plan. But we should push forward and try to get to the port town today. The sooner we are there to explain what we just saw, the better” Walker didnʼt feel like leaving everyone in the dark. Even the smallest piece of information could change the outcome of a battle.

Even Midnight ha stopped her eating after seeing the massive kraken tentacle. They all knew it was able to reach right up on shore if it so desired. They would need to push on to a place where they could be safer. The number of crabs was also increasing. The rock crabs were clearly coming to land to hide from the kraken and her spawn.

If they did not they would easily go extinct in this area if not the entire ocean.

”Do you think it is heading toward the port town like us?” Su was sure that the way the tentacle was facing was indicative of the way it traveled. It was in search of food and there was an entire port that it could hunt. Especially seeing that there were pieces of s ship washing up on shore here.

”Letʼs just hope that the mother kraken being down here means that the merfolk city is safe as well. It might not have been attacked yet and we can handle the baby kraken before they get to it.” The underwater was still a mystery to the party. They had maps of the surface but knew that the maps of the underwater were the same kind of mystery as the caves the dwarves roamed.

They would need constant guidance when they went for the plunge.

”Between the lizardmen and the kraken, we really have no choice but to move fast. I feel bad for the rock crabs. They are in the same position as us.” Gil doubled his effort to move forward. He didnʼt like the feeling of being trapped between two enemies. Plus the rock crabs were not exactly harmless either. Some of the larger ones could easily take a snip at them with their claws if they so desired.

”From what I can make out, that up ahead is the sand bar that starts the harbor. Around the bend we should be able to see the docks. I just donʼt like that it seems too quiet around here.” Walker was glad that it appeared the party had come out near their destination. However, that meant the mother kraken was also near their destination and where she was her young would not be far.

Overall they needed to be ready for a fight in an instant.

”Duck!” Su jumped in front of Alice as a pointed rotting stick flew at them from the swamps. The marshy land had come closer due to the bend in the sand bar up ahead. This gave the lizardmen the chance to fire back at them.

The rotting stick hit Suʼs twin shields and bounce to the ground without any damage to her, However, Su knew that this couldnʼt be the only one. ”I will raise an earth wall as we go. It will be made of sand but it should work.” Walker used the eternal orb staff form to channel the earth elemental mana faster and caused a sand wall to rise just as another pointed rotting stick was thrown near them.

”I canʼt even see them through their camouflage. If I could see them I could snipe them down.” The annoyance that Gil had was mirrored by Midnight who wanted to sneak there and take them out. But they both knew that they were not well equipped to deal with monsters that ad the swamps as their best possible fighting territory. The lizardmen could blend it almost perfectly to the swamps.

They could also take advantage of them in any battle in any number of ways.

”Walker, I am switching shields. We will make an earth fortress. You will need to move it while we go around the bend and get near the port.” Su swapped her twin shield on to the back with the earth dwelling shield. Alice and Remey were right next to her so that they remained in the range of protection.

The earth spirit was pushed awake within the shield and used the stored up earth elemental mana to force the sand in to a round dome. With the push from Walker, it expanded more and easily covered the entire party. Alice had not been inside the earth fortress and was caught off guard slightly by the change around her. However, they still could tell where the rotting sticks were shitting.

This encouraged them to move faster.

”Fleur, I will rely on you to help me guide us. I canʼt leave an opening or else we might get hurt.” Since Fleur could sense the mana the best she was more than happy to help. She felt the urgency and hated the rot that was attacked to the sticks being thrown. She had no ill will toward the lizardmen except for the fact that they threw things that increased the rot and decay of the swamp lands.

Some rot was necessary for nature but the excessive amount in the swamp lands was painful and ugly.
