11 RNG: Texan In Another World - V1.11 - The First Inciden (2/2)
Mike knew how to handle looters, Angry mobs were pounding on the door.
”WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!” Mike yelled out from the rooftop.
One of the people directing others to break down the door looked up and worked to hurry the others.
”RAM IT!” he yelled out.
The battering ram punched into the door again and they were starting to give way. Mike had to protect what was his, putting the sap crystal into his hand, he charged it and pointed down.
”I advise you to stop.” Mike tried to stop them.
When they didn't, Mike released the buildup and it shot toward the tip of the battering ram, gluing it in place. the people pushing it quickly fell down and a bunch of them ran off. The ones that remained climbed over the debris and tried to force the door open again.
Mike had had just about enough of the crazy for the moment, so he let the yo yo-like cloth unravel and drift across the people breaking into his lab.
'Cough, Cough' 'BLEH!!!' :BLEH!: 'uuuuuuuuughhhhhh'
The spills kept coming from the people who were still trying to enter, they laid on the ground expelling the contents of their stomachs and twitched. Mike didn't expect such a severe reaction, The girls had told him it was able to induce vomiting for extended periods but it was like they were throwing up their intestines.
The offenders were turned inside out and Mike grimaced, the once agile and ferocious looking attackers were turning themselves inside out by convulsion. It was like watching a bad virus movie, but Mike had done it with his own hands.
”Fuck me running. This isn't going to help things...” Mike was worried about how Prince Troeg would feel when he found out what Mike had done. The putrid piles of fur tufts and body parts laying across the outside of his lawn would make most incapable of approach. Mike thought about it some more and detailed what happened on a small piece of paper to remember.
'Jesus Fucking Christ!'
'When I see those girls they need to learn what a fucking MSDS sheet looks like' Mike thought to himself some more and decided to start teaching the girls about workplace safety and chemical protocols. He hadn't been too worried until right then, If he had known that the powder was that vicious he might not have used it and instead just fired the water crystal.
Mike thought vomiting would be a lot easier than burning, drowning, or even poisoning them directly. The crystals were a type of magic, defense against them was difficult to say the least. That's why he chose the Sap. Mike wondered if maybe he should have tried to stop them with mud as well, but it would have likely ended up in them drowning, the freezing would make them die as well.
Mike was worried.
”Goddammit. Why do people have to do shit like this?” Mike looked at the scene below again from the rooftop and sighed. Pulling the Fire Crystal out again, he poured his spirit into it and released it at the battering ram and festering rot that blocked his gate.
The rolling flames turned to intense disintegration when Mike threw a second shot of fire out to increase the heat.
”I need to report to Prince Troeg.” Mike was directed to stand guard over the Lab. Thinking about it further, he looked over at Cara.
”Cara”
”I need you go to the castle with a letter and explain the situation to Prince Troeg. If the guards get in your way, do not go away with them.. run away and come back here.” Mike was sure something was happening again, and soon.
Writing down a more detailed description of the events, Mike put it into a scroll and bound it up. He passed it to Cara, kissed her on the cheek and wished her luck. The smoke was billowing outside the main gate still, so Mike lowered her out of a window and watched her drift off into streets toward the castle.
”This day is so fucked up.” Mike sat down, he considered taking another Dab but quickly dismissed it. He needed to think under pressure, being calm would help but it would take away his immediate attention.
Mike pulled the rifle parts into his storage and gathered all his work that was laying around. The books, the tools and any supplies were quickly stored away. Grabbing some larger pieces of furniture and shoving them in front of the door to help barricade it, Mike went back to the roof to watch from above. He held the fire crystal in his hand and looked around from time to time.
Pacing for about an hour, Mike finally saw a friendly sight. Mona, Jodi, Rissa and March had returned but they themselves were running from people. Mike couldn't figure out what was going on. Diving down the stairs and to the bottom of the entryway, Mike started to clear the debris he had stack to defend the Lab.
”Open the door!” March yelled out.
Mike swung the door open just before the girls reached the still rolling flames and smoke. Closing the door behind them to keep the smoke out was the first thing he had to do once they all got inside.
”HELP ME CLOSE THIS” Mike slammed the door shut and tried to replace the beam that was cracked with another one. The door was misshapen and wouldn't close. Mike got the girls to pile things atop each other behind the door and rushed back up to the roof.
Taking the Ice Crystal out he tried something different. Mike aimed the discharge at the ground around the entrance, stopped the burning coals of the battering ram and the corpses in an instant and put several layers of frost over the door. When he was done it was as sealed as some of the ancient tombs of the past, digging it out would take time.
Mike walked back down the stairs and sat in his chair. Cara was still out delivering his message, he would have to think of a solution if she didn't come back with reinforcements.
”So.. Who wants to explain to me what's going on?” Mike looked at the girls, they were all afraid. Something had happened.
