Chapter 314: Elemental Arrows
"Then come on and grab your bow, I want to see what they can do!" Remey was getting a little energy back now that he had left the stuffiness of the alchemist lab. She wanted to see the new arrows more and more as she saw that they would have different effects when they hit a target. To support her the wandering blacksmith stood up and grabbed the arrows to carry off with them.
"Well, I guess we are going back to the training field." Gil had no choice, his arrows were snatched and Remey had pushed them to go back out, he felt annoyed that the arrows would be used so fast.
"Stop pouting, we needed to test things out at some point, and you know that Su will need to see it later too. So just suck it up and be ready to make more. You have a tun of arrows to work with anyways. Not to mention the more you have in reserved the better." Walker used his logic to soothe Gil's frustration but instead, he seemed to be hitting on a sore spot.
Midnight had fallen asleep in the forge and could not be awoken by any means of noise. Onyx was still wrapped around a dwindling pile of light elemental mana crystals. Shards were building up as they were emptied of light mana. Walker did not see any reason to try and drag him along since he was working so diligently to grow. The only thing he mourned was that the cute little onyx was slowly becoming the intimidating serpent Onyx.
By the time Gil and Walker had caught up with the other two, there was already a pile of training dummies ready to be set up. They lined them up one by one next to the one they had previously tested the ice elemental arrow on. That training dummy had lost the ice but shoed the true damage that had been done.
The water was still dripping from the dummy and the arrow had fallen on the ground. The places the ice had penetrated were torn and scratched up showing the possible internal injuries a living creature would be caused. Seeing this Walker worried that Gil's new arrows would lack the ability to trap an opponent and be too deadly. This made him thankful that he had the horned rabbits paralyzing poison to give him to make arrows for that specific reason.
"Alright, we have enough set up. What arrow should I test?" Gil was standing at the ready waiting for an arrow to be handed to him.
The wandering blacksmith handed him an arrow with an arrow head that was glowing with a brown light. The arrow was obviously an earth elemental arrow that Walker had been interested in. His theory was that it would cause the earth to make spikes as the water arrow did with the ice.
"Earth elemental arrow notched and ready, enjoy the show." Gil gracefully pulled the arrow back and looked to the target. His aim was spot on hitting the training dummy in the center yet again. The arrow released the burst of earth elemental mana and caused the ground to rumble for a moment. Everyone was able to feel the slight tremor.
When the tremor stopped they were all looking around for what was supposed to happen, there was nothing more going on. Gil clicked his tongue at this, "I guess I failed." He looked down unhappy when the ground shook again. The next moment a mass of earth shot up and wrapped around the dummy.
Walker had been proven wrong, there were no spikes made of the earth but a large amount of it rose up to completely encase the target. This was better than he had expected from the earache lament arrow. "We can use this to trap enemies when we encounter a group!" His happiness was tangible.
"My thoughts exactly, I was sure that your theory would be right. I am actually happy you were wrong. I was beginning to think all of my arrows would be super dangerous." Gil was on the same side as Walker when it came to the new arrows. They did need to be deadly against monsters, but they would not always need to harm everything he shot at.
"I have to give it to you, that was pretty cool. I would have no way to stop that in a fight if you hit me with that arrow before I saw you and used some evasive maneuvers to dodge. Plus the earth was delayed making it even more of a surprise." Remey as shaking her head knowing that Gil had just gained a huge amount of versatility in his archery. Gil had already been a top quality shot when it came to long range combat. Now he was also a top quality magic damage and physical damage dealer. His strength had easily doubled.
"Now what arrow are we going to test?" His answer was already being handed to him in the form of an arrow radiating dark mana. "Darkness elemental arrow it is." Gil did not hesitate and notched the arrow right away. He pulled it back and let it fly after adding his own mana yet again. The arrow hit the training dummy and immediately released a dark burst of what looked to be smoke. This was the darkness mana that was escaping the arrow head.
The darkness elemental mana faded away leaving the dummy standing with the arrow stuck in the center. However, there was a noticeable amount of rot and decay at the spot where it had impacted. When the group moved closer they could see that the inside of the training dummy was starting to visibly rot and decay in front of them. Before any of them could say anything the training dummy fell over and was pretty much spit in ti two halves with rit on each piece. The arrow had surprisingly stayed intact.
"Huh, I thought the withering wood arrow shaft would rot away from the darkness elemental mana bt It looks like I was wrong. The arrow head is definitely more brittle now though." Gil was examining the arrow which still seemed usable. He probably wouldn't be able to add any of the elemental mana to it now but adding a poison would be fine. "Alright let's test an air element one, I want to see if my bow speeds it up even more."
Gil betrayed himself and got very excited about the wind elemental arrow since it was similar to using his bow's element. He was already looking less tired than he had been when he was first working on the arrows in the forge. It was clear that he was still learning about the effects of his mana absorption.
He took the arrow from the wandering blacksmith who was enjoying every moment of this testing. He rarely got to see some of the things he helped create in action in a way such as this. Gil was already drawing and releasing the arrow before everyone had focused. The bow seemed to add extra wind elemental mana to it and the arrow shot much faster than anyone had expected it to.
The arrow fully buried itself in to the training dummy. The huge amount of air elemental mana released caused the wind to pick up and spin around the training dummy. The wind tore at the dummy breaking it apart and leaving it slashed in many places. The ground and nearby training dummies also suffered from this which really showed the strength of the wind element.
"Area effect damage is awesome…" Remey was in awe, she had no skill possible of this kind of damage. She could attack a single target and make short work of them, but when it came to dealing damage to multiple at one time she was at a loss.
While they all checked out the damage that had been done they realized that this would be the best arrow to use against any grouped enemy, it would be even better if they snuck up on them. "Gil I'm pretty sure we can't use that in the forest. We would tear up a decent spot of the land and definitely anger any of the elves that saw it.." Walker was still trying to be proactive in causing as little damage to the forest as possible. This didn't stop him from thinking of all the great possibilities that this arrow came with.
"Two elemental arrows left right? I think the fire elemental arrow should be last. I am pretty sure it will burn up the leftover training dummies. Plus we have no idea what this light elemental arrow will do, might as well take the shot. Gil shrugged while taking the arrow infused with the light elemental mana. He notched the arrow and aimed for one of the dummies still standing.
