Endlessblaze

The unioned being of Lilly and Ador investigated the flower more, flying down along its stems. then flying outward when they found nothing. nothing. They went to the center of the flower, but found nothing, but the phone. It covered the flower to much. giving it a few tugs, they found It was in there pretty good, and while they didn't entirely get what it was, they were not unfamiliar with the concept that yanking on parts can break things. Once the tall robed person was done with it they would ask about it. THEN they would consider taking the risk and seeing what was under it.

Lilly, once the bus had stopped, instantly fused with Ador, opened the door and jumped out. circling the flower. "Ohhh what's this. How far down does it go? Are we in anther world? Its really empty..."

Lilly, while everyone else was talking, and looking over there ride, was off poking at some grass. Trying to remember how those spells worked. Then she did. And to make sure she was remembering right, she cast them on the grass, which grew taller and tougher. Yep. those were working. how long had it been since she cast that? She had always focused more on the animal side of things, but now realized if she hadn't neglegeted plant manipulation, she might not have lost her bag the other day. What to do now though? Ador made his suggestion, 'Talk to the blind girl'. But what would she even say? How would she convince her to stop violating the minds of others? She tried to bring up her mothers memories, in hopes of learning something from that, but all she got is images of herself pouting after being scolded. It had been a long time hadn't it? Since her mother had used union to save her. It was far from a surprise she had trouble remembering things. Laying down and Thinking back on the past two days, she hadn't been much help. Hopefully the next mission would allow her to make full use of her Voice. That had always been where she shined....

"Well this Is not obvious at all." Leo sighs and looks thoughtfully at the area. "I could attempt to create a platform of mana over the area, but we would likely be attacked, and I'm not sure I could support this for very long." Snow decides to chime in, her projected avatar flickering. clearly glitching out. "W-W-why Not F-Freeze it O-over?" "Uh...because it might melt? or fail to keep the mine's from tripping? Also you really need to get some sleep. At least do a quick restart." "I Wouldn't NEED to S-S-sleep if All your C-Code wassent such a shitty M-Mess." "You do realize you just insulted yourself right? Look just do a quick restart ok?" "F-Fine" Once snow's avatar has flickered out of existence leo turns his attention to the Obvious mine field. After a moment he Points at one section. "Lets see if this blows them. Frostbrute. ice it" And of course there was this other section here......."Everyone stand back" Leo gestures, bringing mana up to where snow rested on his waist and attuning it to the iron, before pointing forward and raiseing his arm. forming a long tendril of force, which he brings down with an accompanying swing of his arm. Frostbrute uses ice fire stream on minefield 2 in an attempt to detonate mines from range. Leo uses channel on minefield 1 in an attempt to detonate mines from range, spending 3 Mana

Lilly slowly stands as Ador climbs onto her head. "Why sell it? I'm sure at least one of us could get some use out of all this."

"If they can get a network connection yes. I can use my computer to send them commands, but if they cant get a signal, there's nothing I can do but trust there programing and the people they are sent with. And right now I'm strapped for materials, meaning that I wont be able to include the proper parts for that, on more than one. Maybe more depending on how many of these tablets our host here lets me rip up." Leo sits down and rest his arms on the table. "The main issue is I'm under equipped. I'm not sure what you guys maintain as your standard, but I don't like to go into anything without thirty or forty golems on stand by, and plenty of equipment on my person. If we were just going after common bandits I wouldn't worry about it. but this..."

Leo outright slams a hand on the table. "Suicide is what I call running into a fight like this unprepared! You just said there's no telling how strong the enemy group will be!" Leo sighs and calms himself. "If your taking on the ruin, I guess I can go help out at the pipe line, since I can shape solid matter easily, I should be able to speed repairs along." "Both groups should be able to communicate at all times, do you have any coms?"

"Nothing like that" Lilly and ador do nothing. waiting for something they can do to turn up.

"You do realize what my craft is right?" Leo sits his toy golem on the table "Even a few boulders could produce golems of mild usability. True without your lab I wont be making anything better then meatshields and distractions. But Simple cannon fodder should be easy to produce. Still if your so worried about me hurting myself in your lab, why don't you assist me? I'm sure we could make some impressive Golems. Forget stone golems with a stick and shield. Lazor cannons, fire breath, energy bombs. Of course I wont know what exactly Ill be able to produce until I see what materials you have and how mana attunes to them." "The knight guy makes a good point, you should consider going to the pipeline." "Ill consider it, AFTER I make sure we are equip to survive this."

Lilly rubs her head, wincing. "Ok what just happened?"

"Interesting. The crystal is likely a mana storage unit, or perhaps solid stable spellwork. We should try to avoid destroying It if possible. capturing it would be well...great." "W-way to go captain obvious" Leo ignores snow's sarcastic comment and carries on, missing her stutter. "If we are going to launch an attack, we should at least employ basic tactics. Ill need time to prepare some weapons and golems for the attack. should we go all out assault or stealth? charge in? or attack from afar?"

The golem tries to fight back and finish its swing, But as Blue fights against the swing Leo smirks and makes a small gesture, forming little orbs of force mana around the golem before hurling them at blue. "Tell me, how many things can you manipulate at once?"

Lilly does not look fine after that blast, and seems to be in a daze. Ador screeching, flies over towards her. After getting patched up however. Lilly uses mend on Ador. And Ador does nothing.

Lilly, had enjoyed her meal last night, it had been quite the feast, but she regretted having to throw out the Vinson leftovers from before. because rats. Regardless, it was time to clear out the boat graveyard. That woman at the meeting had said her voice wouldn't be very helpful, but she figured she would try anyways. It might at least be fun to watch. Lilly enters the encounter, with Ador in tow.

Leo returns his attention to the fight, as the rush of water packs enough force to send the golem sliding back. "Your doing good on your defense. But can you keep it up?" Leo once again uses winter blade through the golem, but does nothing else. Is he plotting something?

Alright, time for something a bit tricky. Leo sends the golem running back at his body while he starts casting a spell. he only uses a tiny amount of mana, no need to effect the whole room, the match is constrained to the table thus far. As the golem touches the hand laying on the table, icy energy once more flows into it, as leo uses winter blade again. The golem goes running back at blue to hit him with a swing, prepped to swing from left to right with its left hand. Then the spell kicks off, wrapping the table in a cold gust of wind going so far as to rapidly cool moisture in the air to tiny bits of frost. Then snow beeps. her eye flashes before widening and projecting. She looks in leo's direction even though she cant actually see him at this angle. Though she might be using frostbrutes eyes. She doesn't say and no one ask. "Message received from unknown sender, containing an attached file. encryption heavy but primitive. I should be able to safely unpack and decode it by tomorrow morning. Permission to begin?" You...never ask my permission for stuff like that? Are you sure the file is something you can handle? Snow crosses her arms at him "Of course idiot. I've already started, I was just asking so you couldn't complain later." Leo sighs and gives her a half hearted "go ahead" wave.

Leo attempts to jump over the mess, to avoid slipping, while doing a spin to strike blue. Instead he and the little golem overshoot the jump, sending him bashing into the ceiling. before dropping down onto the table again. unharmed. After a few moments. It Goes back into a battle stance as the blue enrgy fades from its sword. "Well...That happened. uhhh your move?"

"Very well! En gard!" Leo gathers a small amount of energy from his body and taps the golem before sending it in a charge, with an over hand swing. The icy energy wrapping around the blade of the golems sword. It may be a toy, but its still quite a bit larger in height then blue, and its fairly quick. "WINTER BLADE!" It shouldn't do much, if any damage, there's far less energy in the icy swing then there would be if Leo was actually fighting.

"Ill be right back." Leo goes outside, picks up a rock, and grabs the toy golem on his way back in. siting at the table where blue is, he alters the golem to be able to hold things in its blocky hands. creating a hinge and a small hole in the center on each "hand". Then he creates a stone toy sword and arm mounted toy shield from the rock, Which he equips it with. Perfect. Now lets see how did that spell go again? Leo cast a spell establishing his direct control over the golem, and has it stand up, Doing a few movements to make sure its working properly. "Alright, I'm ready when you are, but try to be careful, this thing wasn't really designed for this. Would you like the first move?"

Ador, finding himself ignored, decided to return to lilly and his nap. Flying back over and laying down. It was a nice day at least. Even if this place was a bit run down.

Leo tilts his head. Now quite curious as he gets a better look at blue, and he starts mumbling under his breath. "An ensouled construct of twist ties which draws different properties from different color's and materials of Twist ties which are integrated. Huh. neat." He starts back off on his trip to a nice sparing location only to stumble as a Jolt of pain flairs up in his leg. Perhaps it WAS a bad idea to spar now....Actually... Well he would prefer to do it himself, but it could help him learn something. "Hey blue, want to have a little sparing match? Vitor thinks me actually sparing right now is a bad idea, but I could control that toy golem I made earlier and use that in place of my own body. Wont be as strong as me, but I might figure out some nice techniques...."

Leo Nods and goes to pick up a tablet and looks it over it looks like it might be fun to take apart, but practicing his skills seemed more right... Then realizing his hunger he sits it back down goes to Grab a snack. May as well eat then go train some. He finds some ration bars held in a bag closed with a sliver twist tie. Huh wasn't the Little blue guy saying something about that earlier? He removes the tie and takes out a bar, which he instantly starts noming as he goes over to where blue is. "Hey little blue guy. you were saying something about silver tie's earlier right?" He holds up the metallic Tie for him to see.

"I'm fine. It still Hurts but you got me the anti-venom in time. deadliest snake in the world or not, I've Done harder things through worse pain. And as it stands I'm quite under prepared. Most of my equipment was left back in my world, so I would like to at least get some practice in. I might also take you up on the tablet offer though. Given the Scrap recovered from the robot that got wrecked I should have enough material for a golem or two if I also make use of the rocks...Maybe some eternal ice? If you had any platinum I could make a simple railgun for ranged...I really do need to practice my fighting though. Maybe ill just do some practice. How much time do we have here? should we move soon. I might be able to work in both some weapon creation and practice."

"Well so you have any metal and gemstones? I can make do with those. Oh and computer parts. Ill worry about the little lab there later, but right now I should probably get to work on some more equipment." Leo pauses and thinks for a moment. "What if we had a good sparring match?"

Ador, finding no help from the girl, returns to writing messages. Name?
