When morning came we sent them out after a breakfast and after that i continue to train lily on how to manipulate mana as it is a major part when it comes to magic
At the top of the cliff-grass land
We already enlarge the formation and will continue to flow the land inside the formation before we continue building the irrigation
Everyone is gathered in front of us
"Ok so the plan changed,now we will teach you something different"Azhel said as he hold his hoe and turn his back and strike the ground with it releasing a trail of seven brown colored blades and a long piece of land is instantly plowed and it instantly surprised the elves
And so seeing this he told them to be quite and so after that the taught them how to do it with careful guidance
Through it's hard for them as it's their first time they still manage to do a bit of it,through not enough to cast the magic itself
Not that it's time for me to teach them about how to fight(and mining)
I taught them how to mine using the same magic skill Azhel used and i found something strange
"What is this??"Mei asked as he held a a red crystal the size of a fist
"hmmm let me take a look at it"Azhel said as Mei pass it too her
"Hmm this smell,it's familiar,it smells like mana?? "Milia said as he look at it
"It must be crystalized mana,keep it"I said as i take it before giving it back to Mei
"hmmm ok"She said as she keep it
"Hmmmm I will investigate it later"I said as i continue the mining class before teaching them the combat class which include running around with weight,how to properly use a dagger and foot work techniques and also a fight with Azhel with Azhel blocking all my attacks and me dodging all his attack like a disappearing shadow,everytime I attack I will disappear before reappearing at random location before attacking again then disappear(his combat style combine the techniques of assassination,close combat,shadow magic and illusion,while Azhel focus on close combat and observation on his enemy's style of combat,both of them always fight in close combat and have very few range attacks) and the whole class is 2 hours and after that they go to the village for a meal which mother and the others will cook and then the magic class of Milia and after that is the defense class
And without any more adieu,here come the expedition together with 50 xenomorphs all of us in full armor,while our weapons have paralyzing poison which Azhel crafted while his on his way crafting that acid as we don't want something such as precious hosts for more xenomorphs just to go to waste,well what do we do with the dead bodies???,well we turn them to become ovomorphs with the way used to reproduce when there is no queen(Just a theory of mine so don't mind it)
"Don't worry I will come back later at night"I said as I hold the soft body of my beloved Mei as we sit in a tree trunk
"Are you sure???"She asked with worry in her eyes
"I'm sure,but before that there's something I must give you first"I replied before cutting one of my dreadlocks which spray a bit of acidic blood,but I managed to redirect away from hitting Mei
"What are you doing!!!"Mei shouted as she saw me cut my dreadlock and together with the blood that sprays,overcome by worry she tried to touch the place where I cut it,but i just blocked her and point at the tree trunk with holes in it and she immediately know what I mean but she still didn't stay away from it despite knowing she can be melted
"Ohhh you still won't stay away don't you.well don't mind it"I said as I refine the cut dreadlock into a thread the size of a nylon before tying it's both end and had her wear it out
"I don't have that much creativity to make beautiful things but I hope you like it"I said as i carries her hair while hugging
"I'm going now"I said as I stand up
"I will wait"She said as she let go of me
"and I will return "I said before leaving and she also returned to the village not shedding a single tear as she trust me
In an unknown location
It's been an hour since i left with my team
"Go ahead of us and alert us if you saw anything strange"I said as I point at a group of 10 xenomorphs
"Yes,older brother"The said as they go ahead of us(Wait.do they even speak,well I guess so as every race has a language,don't mind it that much)
Seeing them go ahead of us we explore the forest while following the river,some of the xenomorphs ,we are split in 5 groups 10 each.The first group is responsible for scouting while the other group have 3 xenomorphs carrying 5 face huggers and the others in the group is responsible for guarding them,we are arrange in a circular formation with the scout being in the front and me in the middle of all the groups and this is to secure that we can get some good host for more variants and also to thoroughly explore the fores as we plan to build a very large formation to cover the entire place
We explore the the forest and in this formation and soon we arrived at the center of the forest or should I call it pit
"Ok we will stay here for now"I said as i look at the surrounding which is really great
There are gigantic trees that reach the sky,even the trunks can only be covered by 5 people hugging the trunk in circle
"It's great isn't it???"I asked them
"Certainly,older brother"The replied with respect as they kneel to the ground
"Drop the pleasantries and stand up"I said as I ask them to stand up as I'm not used to this type of things
"But it's-"They tried to retort but i quickly cut their words
"I don't care about hierarchy and this is my order "I said as I order them to stand up
Finding no word they can use to retort,they just stand up
"Ok help me find some woods we can use to build a camp and also a camp fire"I said as I go to the woods.Half of them followed me while half of them left to protect the face huggers
after that we sent out to get some woods
Walking down the forest together with 4 xenomorphs to collect some woods,we suddenly heard something in the woods
"Hmmm did you hear that???"I asked as I get alerted
"yes"They answered while readying their weapons,a gloves that have a blade that reaches their foot
Hearing the sound getting closer,we activate the invinsibility in our armor then climb a tree to see what's going on
After climbing a tree,we can finally see it as it reveals itself from the bush.It's a tall mantis pray,the same height as us,it has 4 arms instead of 2 and it's black in color
Seeing that we suddenly disappear the creature got alarmed and look around cautiously
"When I say go,we will jump and cut all it's limbs,get it???"I whispered to the others whos just nobs to my word
"1.2.3.go"I count before jumping down the tree and cutting it's arms on the side and seeing the it's arm is cutted it started screaming in pain and started slashing around with it's two remaining arms,but that did not last long as it's two arms also got cut by the other xeno while the other cuts it's legs
"I wonder what will come out of this"I said as i look at the bleeding mantis
But fate doesn't seems to want me continue my thought as a group of 10 mantis pray jump out of the woods and seeing this I alarmed the others to quickly come here
To be continued....................
