Chapter 1011 - 1011. Time To Swim

Ciel had taken off and Walker did not waste a single moment. He went directly to Gil who was about to run after Alma. "Gil. We have one hour. Help the enforcers get ready and tell them that the dragons are diving soon." Walker knew that Alma was the only one that was able to open up a path in the razor whip weed. 

"Understood. You make sure that we have healers ready. Those golems can't stay with the merchants." Gil was still rushing away but gave a wave. He was sure that the merchants were trying to get the golems to move all of the kraken spawn on to land for processing. It was clear that they fully intended to use them as an unsleeping work force to make their money faster. It made sense if they were not part of the force sent to exterminate the kraken spawn. 

Before Walker was going to rush to tell everyone else one hour count down he knew he had to deal with this. One of the elite dwarven guards was stepping out of a golem they had control of. Walker made his way toward him which caught the guard's attention. "I know you just got out of the water. But I need you to make sure the golems are at the edge of the razor whip weed and ready to dive deeper in an hour. Can that be done?"

The guard knew better than to even say anything other than yes. He was clear on who would be in charge and who would not. Just because the merchants assumed the dwarven golems would help was not any reason to make it so. The golems had been sent for the respect reason of defeating the kraken and its spawn. Just because the dwarves were known for their trade prowess did not mean they would help any merchant beyond their orders. 

"Hey! The golems are preparing for the dive to the merfolk city. If your guards can, then they can focus on the clean up effort. But anyone that wants to come deeper to fight this infestation will need to be ready in an hour." Walker found one of the head merchants ordering a few people around. 

"But we need the help to repair the docs. We can't just let them go." The look of annoyance on the man's face made Walker get more serious. 

"This is not about one singular port town. You saw the dragons in the sky, right? They know these monsters. They said that they will eat all the food in the oceans. Then they will come on land as they did here and eat everything else possible. After that, they will eat each other and die off. All that will be left is a dead rotting world. In one hour the joint force of Genesis is moving deeper in to the ocean." The slight shiver that went down the man's spine came from the force Walker put on each word. It was no longer something that could be argued with. Instead, it was just how it would be. 

The man changed his orders and the other merchant heads eventually started to meet with him and speak. At first, they tried to convince each other to bargain with the dwarves but when Walker looked at them and they felt his royal aura, they lost all their will to argue. Their guards began to work and they even offered what money they had to the remaining uninjured villages to help. It was much better seeing the head merchants start to put the work in themselves, something that would normally never happen. 

"Alice?" Walker felt a pull on his sleeve and found Alice standing with Onyx on her shoulders. "Are you alright? You did very well, so did you Onyx. I think you two have some really good hidden combinations." There was a look and feeling of happiness from Onyx. He too felt that Alice was a very good combo partner for light magic. It was even better that she had the light elemental runes on her armor and clothing. 

"How long?" Alice wanted to make sure she was ready. She was in charge of the battle healers that had come with her. She planned to leave some on the healers in the port chapel so that they could help those still very injured. But most would be coming with them in to the deep waters. 

"Just an hour. But it is enough to get things ready. Here." He handed over a few healing and mana potions for her and Onyx. It was also for anyone injured that needed them but from the way, the attack had gone there as likely no new injuries. 

"Walker, get over here!" Remey's voice rang through the air as she pulled a kraken spawn behind her. 

"What's wrong? Why are you here?" Remey should be handing out potions at this point since she was the best one to do so. Yet, here she was with a kraken spawn behind her. 

"These things are not the same as a normal kraken. One of the dragonkin said that they shouldn't have these little barbs on their tentacles. They are some evolved variants of the kraken. The mother might be what the dragons think, but her spawn are much worse." The pressure in the air seemed to increase. If the kraken spawn were really worse than before it could spell much more trouble. 

"I will tell everyone. Pass on the notice that no one should get caught by their tentacles. It will be important for us to avoid them in the water." Walker had flashes of people being dragged away once they were in the water. Once everyone knew it would only go to keep everyone safer and keep fewer injuries from occurring. But time was ticking down and he had more people to speak with.
