Chapter 2345: 2345. A Worse Poison
The moment that the sound poison flowers were handled by Walker and Gil, every single soldier had rebounded. Not just because the flowers were not forcing their poisonous and impossible to see spores in to their bodies but also because of the purification magic being used.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The healers had been holding on to their mana for the entire time that this expedition was taking place. They had specifically been told to keep themselves held back and allow the rune sewn fabrics and armors to work. Those purification rune patterns had been more than helpful to everyone.
But there was a limit to what they could do. Walker and everyone else had just seen the limit in real time. That monster had been enough to go against the careful planning for general poisons that they had assumed would exist. Not to mention gone against some of the poisons that were outside of what they had imagined.
A poison that could be considered something called a mana poison struck Walker as exceptionally dangerous. Because that meant that the poison they were affected with had not only been perfectly made to target those who were influenced and used manas the most. The poison was also not necessarily linked to the physical spore.
Specifically, this poison was luckily not as bad as it could have been. Walker could have come up with a hundred different worse situations with what they had just seen and experienced if this poison was something more dangerous.
"There are still plenty of other howler wolves, but they are retreating. I do not think that they are all enraged." Gil's comment snapped Walker's attention back to the battle. He had been using the natural mana around the healers to buff them further. The healers were working exceptionally hard.
Their knowledge of the bodies of various races had exploded in quality. Mostly because healers and other similar classes had come together from every race. Causing their knowledge to become more refined.
Not only this, but they had become more driven than ever since they were not locked away in a cathedral or small healing temples any longer. The healers had broken out in to the world in a way that they never had before.
The adventurers being one specific place that healers now flocked to. Before Genesis, healers were a hard to get commodity in an adventuring party. Mostly because they had safer and better places to go. Their desire for exploration was often held back by themselves or by society. Now, that has radically changed.
The howler wolves are gone for the time being." A dragonkin rushed to Walker and stood before him. He was carrying what appeared to be a broken leg from one of the howler wolves. On it was a deep red mushroom. Clearly the source of the trouble that they had dealt with.
"Thank you, get treated and wash whatever you can off of your body with purified water that a healer is carrying. I will use this as a specimen that we will bring back. If we can make an antidote or a method to prevent any infections from this parasitic mushroom, it will be for the best." Walker did fear what he would hear.
"Then we are going to make our way back. This is not something we can spend five months or even more on." It wasn't even a thought before Walker had responded. He instantly knew that they would not stay here.
Not only could this be a project for the elves and Genesis as a whole to take their time with, he had sensed it earlier. The life mana was dense within the dungeon. It could surely remain unaffected by explorers taking things for quite some time. As long as no one was extremely destructive, then it would be fine. The dungeon would not be affected negatively.
"We are just going to leave then." Gil's disappointment was evident, but he did not argue. He just had to get the comment out before he looked at the stretchers that were being made. They couldn't even use the fallen braces on the ground because the bark on those tree branches had different poison in them.
"I don't want us to encounter a worse poisons. We might have seen the apex predator of this place. But we have only seen it because it was on the ground. What about in the trees where we have worse footing? What about other monsters that live up there and are prepared for the territorial advantage they have?" seeing that everyone had listened to him, Walker focused his mana back on healing everyone again.
His eyes were still moving though. The all around appraisal skill was being used on every small thing. The sheer amount of information he was gathering right now would be perfect for those who would explore here next time.
That was until he caught sight of yet another oddity. But one related to what he had already seen and might put him on track to see the most dangerous poison within the poison jungle dungeon.
