The dense forest was filled with an eerie silence as Shinon and Selena trod carefully through the undergrowth. It had been a few hours since they began their hunt for Acid Spitters, but they had no success capturing them 'alive'.
"Looks like we'll have to settle for their glands," Shinon said, frustration evident in his voice. "At least we can extract the needed corrosive acid from them."
"You should start collecting the acid," Selena muttered, swinging her crossbow over her shoulder as the remains of three Acid-Spitters lay around them. "I'll stand watch."
"On it." Shinon took out a small container from his belt and a pair of gloves to protect his hands.
He then delicately cut into the first acid spitter's neck, searching for the glands hidden beneath the flesh. It was a delicate process, and he had to be cautious not to puncture the glands accidentally, or it'll make a huge mess.
