@Zeroth Thanks to some random wisp hovering outside his hideaway, making strange noises, Jason was unable to fall asleep.
Since the number of mana crystals in the cave was dwindling, he was rather against the idea of just going out and killing it with [Stone Shot I], in order to avoid wasting precious mana.
Instead, Jason figured he might as well be productive if he wasn't going to sleep. Picking up one of his ammunition stones, he readied [Stone Shot I], and like before, searched for a similar resonance in the earth around him. Once he again picked up the position of the strange object, he went to work 'mining' like he had earlier when he had assistance from Rain.
Without the help of the acid, the task was much harder this time around. So in order to be as efficient as possible, Jason would keep 'mining' with all his might until he was exhausted, and then search the earth for resonances while he recovered his strength, before continuing to mine. The repetition of this process was truly grueling, but nevertheless, he intended to finally uncover what he'd worked so hard to reach.
@Brithwyr@Jollan@Rai@Geurls Unfortunately for Mason, the woman with the scythe had no interest in diplomacy, and immediately attack. Time suddenly appeared to stand still around Mason as he witnessed the woman's tattoos glow as her pupils became slits.
For but a few moments, something deep within Mason stirred… What was this? A green gas covered his eyes, followed with a searing pain. Everything happened so fast, suddenly Dremmick and Constance were there, the gas seemed to disappate… Why did Dremmick need Mason's blood?
A paper with a symbol on it was thrust into Mason's hand, something about stunning?
………..
Suddenly the world came back to Mason, though he couldn't see the scythe lady, the bandit had set two flaming wolves on Dremmick, and was now attacking Constance!
”Watch out Constance!”
Lunging forward, Mason swung at the bandit with Stonefang…. only to fall flat on his face right at her feet.
He had to save his friends!
His hand shot out, firmly gripping around the bandit’s ankle, the small paper Dremmick had given him pressed hard into their skin.
Ren was panicking, this was much, MUCH more of a fight than he bargained for, sweat began to form on his chest and back. As his heartbeat quickened, the world seemed to slow down. Seeing the Undead abominations they faced, he looked at the weapons in his hands; a pointy stick, and a horn.....
How the hell could he kill these things with just a pointy stick and horn???
Looking around the room, he saw all his new friends, all fighting so hard. They were so strong... As tears began to form, the scared little goblin's eyes came to rest on the rusted sword of a fallen undead. Did they all have such weapons?
Suddenly, one of the others called out; "I need help!"
The goblin holding the door required aid, a decaying hand was keeping the door from shutting, and would soon ruin the entire plan. She needed help, but what could Ren do? He certainly wasn't as strong as the others, what chance did he have?
Suddenly: AN IDEA
Dropping his tools, Ren ran straight over to the rusted blade, taking it into his hands. It was pretty heavy, resting the back of the blade on his right shoulder, he lightly pressed his head into the side of the blade before closing his eyes and whispering a prayer. A prayer to whatever may hear him, for the one thing he lacked in this moment, what he NEEDED in order to protect his friend, "Steel give me strength, that I may defend what is dear to me."
Ren knew that such a desperate plea was apt to fall upon deaf ears, yet the action alone filled him with vigor. Charging toward the door, "Watch out!" he yelled out in warning before swinging his new blade down on the hand reaching around the door.
Defensive strike:this goblin has learned that the best offence is a good defence. This goblin is able to take a defensive posture and still make a powerful strike either in the hopes of killing said opponent or to run away easier
Military Strategy- Centurian position: The goblins have unknowingly used a formation of perfect defense and defensive strikes. This position when used in a funnel or with a group can wreak devastation to the enemy forces
Coming Soon!
