Chapter 27 - Grand Masters of Lava Controlling (1/2)
Commander Alia replied with curiosity
”Make what work?”
Stefan who seemed to have payed strict attention to detail says
”I recall seeing the dead end tunnel back at the main entrance suddenly burst out with lava.
That dirt and rocks causing the dead end tunnel didn't seem to be like a thin wall. It seemed rather wide.
How wide was it?”
Commander Alia's mind is bursting with confusion. Why would this small ignite want to know how wide the barricade like ”dead end” was.
She follows up and says
”That tunnel viewed as a dead end from the other side was fifty meters across.
Meaning fifty meters of rocks and dirt blocking the entrance to the actual town of Lan Zhe.”
Stefan calmly says
”Exactly. Fifty meters of barricade….
He stopped his sentence as he saw BlackWind chewing on a halfly grown watermelon.
Woldemir told Alia
”Looks like there is trouble in Paradise.”
Commander Alia calmly says
”Let him eat. Horses need food more than we doo. Please continue Stefan.”
Stefan puzzling with his own mind, comes back to reality and says
”AAAAAA yes. The tunnel.
As i planned to say, the barricade or differently known as the ”Collapse” was fifty meters wide.
But Lava was still able to blast and melt it's way through the collapsed tunnel.
That's what is going to get more fresh air here.”
Eric follows up
”So we are going to make an entrance out of this side too?”
Stefan replies with a tone that shows he is getting rather irritated explaining everything in detail. But yet again his plan is slightly complicated.
He says
”No. not an entrance. It wouldn't be of much help. I'm talking about foot long holes.
If a Grand Master comes here and blasts lava out of his hand or wherever he blasts it from towards the cave's side walls, he will make a foot long hole all the way up the surface. Meaning air will be able to come in afterwards.”
Commander Alia shouts with joy
”THAT IS GENIUS.”
Eric, Woldemir and Mogranius add a few words too
”Well done.”
”That's our strategy guy.”
”Ehh, not bad.”
Eric thinks a little while this time before asking a lot of questions. He had a rather intelligent thought but of course he is going to ask a question about it.
He says
”But i turned that six foot wide tunnel in to a tunnel where even Calidum Lutum could pass with ease. Remember? Could my powers help as well? That goes the same for Mogranius.”
Stefan replies with great enthusiasm
”OH YES. But you need to blast less in order to not shake the cave down. Meaning your powers will likely take twice as long to penetrate through the rocks and dirt and reach the surface.
We need every available Grand Master up here. Five Grand Masters and two Expert Fire Wizards will shorten this task.”
