Huge slime?! Oh wonderful, today just kept getting better and better.

A combination of attacks from all of them made the first Dire Rat fall quickly. Ardur slammed his fist into it the weakened beast, finishing it off splendidly. The rats would be easy, but they couldn't fight on two fronts. That was just ridiculous in their current position. The optimal choice here? Fleeing and then letting the slime and dire rats fight, and then finish off whoever was left. She was confident in their abilities to handle them in their weakened state, but judging from the small tremors in the ground, they didn't have the luxury of time. She wasn't sure if Colchain would even understand complex directives. Likely not.

[i][color=0076a3]"I need a mana crystal, I don't have enough MP left to move, let alone fight off these rats and that slime!"[/color][/i]

Danny's voice bought her out of her observations and thoughts.

[color=598527]"I heard you the first time!"[/color] Right, she needed to act. Not think. Action was needed here. She had a Mana Crystal on her, and she couldn't use it, so it was only natural to let the one who could have it even if she wasn't too keen on giving the thing she came out here to get in the first place up.

[color=598527]"There!"[/color] Vomiting up the Mana crystal, she spat it in Danny's direction. Hopefully it'd reach him and not be too damage by the venom. She couldn't reach him and protect Colchain and the others at the same time. [color=598527]"Try focusing on actively regenerating your Mana or something too! Everyone else, focus on keeping that slime busy! I can handle the rats!"[/color] She shouted to Danny, activating her [b]'Overwork'[/b] skill once more. Assuming fleeing wouldn't be a viable option, they'd have to quickly finish the rats and focus their efforts on just one large slime.

She wanted to ensure this rat was poisoned, however - so instead of simply going right for its throat with her fangs, Ash quickly stuck one of her claws in her mouth, soaking it in her venom. It'd likely burn, but that wouldn't matter so much to her. She might not make it in time to ensure that Colchain was completely unharmed, but she could at least pull the rat off of him again.

Ash Lunged at the Lizard Lunging for Colchain, baring her fangs and grabbing it with her hopefully venom soaked claws and filling her mouth with venom once more. As soon as she sank both her claws and fangs into the rat, she'd use [b]Venom Shot[/b] at close range on the beast.
