Chapter 1305 1305. Nighttime Experiments

"I'm not saying that it was a bad arrow. It works. But there's no point in it. If I fire an arrow made of condensed shadows it is lost in the sun. Then if I fire it in to the shadows it melts right back in to them. It would be better if it had the decaying properties of darkness and poison instead of melting away." Gil had not put his dislike for the darkness arrow that Walker had forcefully condensed from the shadows of the setting sun under the carriage.

"Well of course it won't last in the light, the light elemental arrow wouldn't last in the shadows either. But that doesn't mean we can't keep using them. They probably work in the shadows like your other darkness infused arrows." Walker was trying to argue the value of the darkness elemental arrows much to Alice's dismay. She had been helping them with the light elemental arrows since Walker had less speed creating them. It was just a difference in skills. But now that she wasn't actively helping she was annoyed that she was out of the loop. She had no control over other elemental manas therefore she felt useless.

"I think you two should be done. This is all you have done the entire walk for the day and we are heading in to the night soon. Midnight, Su, and I are even done playing around with our training. It's time to rest. The golem army is better than anyone else to watch out for the night." Remey saw the argument between the two and knew it was her turn to be level headed for once. That, and she wanted Walker to drop the arrow making to share the food in his inventory. Midnight and Su were of like mind on that subject since they had burned a lot of energy.

"By the way. How do you not have an arrow making elemental skill or whatever? You have made like a hundred and I'm sure you are low on mana." Gil was stunned that Walker had not received the skill easily for once. He was used to Walker somehow managing to get a skill without much effort or in the most random way.

"You tell me. I keep making these things with different shapes and trying to get them perfect. They even work like normal arrows but cause elemental damage. We saw the fire one literally catch the grass on fire before going out due to the damp ground here.

"Alright, you pushed me to it." Remey used her fists to clunk the two on the back of the head completely bringing them back to reality. "You two are getting in the carriage. Gil can go to one side and think about his arrows and how he should make his own. Walker can get the food for everyone since we are hungry. Alice, Su, Midnight, and I will relax and sleep. If you two argue or try to make more arrows I will put you to sleep myself!" Midnight just growled slightly in approval because she was all for getting dinner sooner.

Gil moved away rubbing his head knowing that he would have a slight bruise there. He was mumbling about how the elemental arrows should work but that Walker should have gotten a skill by then. Walker just moved inside and sat down after handing out the food that he had held on to for the trip. The healers were in the other carriages so the party found themselves surrounded by the carriage with extra supplies and many tools for golem repairs. Walker even found a stack of the golem ballista bolts. Since everyone was distracted he decided to look at the form and try and copy them as well.

Pulling out the earth part he had been working with before to make the spike that Gil could fire, Walker began adding water to make an arrowhead. The shape was thinner so it could fly through the air better. The dwarves had tested many forms and found this the best shape to use for efficiency. The fins were easy to make out of ice as well since the arrow could melt leaving the spike of earth to pierce whatever they were fired at.

The theory that the arrow might change as it flew through the air was simple. It was also a way for Walker to wonder if there were arrows that could be made with multiple elements to have different end results similar to the infusion of elemental manas within arrowheads that Gil already used. But when he tried to make an arrow with fire in it he just heated the dirt instead. Condensing it caused the entire structure to become brittle. And the water to evaporate.

His experiments continued on until Walker realized he was the only one awake. Even Gil had called it a day and fallen asleep in the corner with his bow at his side ready to grab it at a second's notice. "I'll try it one more time." Walker made a cylinder of condensed stone. He had grabbed a medium sized rock from the ground as the carriage moved. He filled it with air and then added some fire from one of the lamps in the carriage. The flames easily started up and were fueled by the air on the inside of the stone cylinder. Once Walker sealed it he could feel the pressure. As he did this he added water around the sealed cylinder to form an ice arrow around it all. He had made a strange arrow that was surprisingly heavy. However, it was perfectly balanced and could be used. The previous cracking and breaking that he had experienced and stifled before didn't occur. He had finally succeeded in making a decent elemental arrow that could be used without dissipating. I just needed the proper elements in the proper balance.
