'Twisting vine serpent

The bloodline of this vine serpent has changed through various processes while living in a venom and poison steeped environment. As this was the case, it developed better abilities to consume and camouflage with the jungle itself. Its body had a layer of dense bark acting as scales which are extremely tough to break through.

With its toughness defenses, the body is able to grow much larger and resist the many other monsters capable of delivering poisons or venoms through touch or other means of attack. This has allowed for it to also resist the many plants which it would normally have been poisoned by.

Due to ingesting the many poisonous and venomous monsters and plants, the twisting vince snake grows to have a large amount of poison within its blood. Just touching it will cause severe damage to the skin and potentially death. Its fangs are coated in a thin layer of venom that it only made stronger the longer that the twisting vine serpent lives.

Many people would believe that the twisting vine serpent is a coiled up or twisted pile of vines. It does this to attract prey due to the large size that it can reach. Due to this, its body has immense value. Both as a mix of poisonous materials for antidotes, but also for poison resistance materials in crafting. Its large size allows for more materials than most monsters...'

Walker didn't have a chance to focus on the next half of the all around appraisal. He knew that there was a simple fact that explained why they could not ignore this monster. Simply put, it was both territorial and generally hated having other monsters anywhere nearby it. Best explain that it didn't like groups because it was a solitary monsters would not help anyone right now.

The twisting vine serpent had already struck out with a dense tail that broke through all the greenery in front of it.

The earth mages had no hesitation. They slammed their magical staffs down on the ground to call a wall of earth. But the ground was too wet. Instead of a dense wall of earth, they had a soft wall of mud.

Sensing this issue, Walker reacted and began to solidify the wall. His focus was also on the fact that the body of the serpent was still moving towards them even with its main attack being with its tail. The tail might not be the most dangerous, but it broke the defensive earth wall condensed by Walker right away.

Three shield carrying soldiers blocked for the earth mages. The clank of their metal shields was loud enough to tell Walker that their shields had just been dented. A very impressive effect caused by the twisting vine serpent. The serpent's bark like scales had much more weight to them. In turn, this caused the hit to be much stronger than what many people would have expected it capable of from a longer distance away.

Walker channeled the water from the air and created a sudden blast of cold air. The cold air immediately reacted with the warmth of the poison jungle air causing a white mist to block the vision of the twisting vine serpent. He knew that he had to keep his forces organized to defend from the harsh hits of this larger monster.

The size allowed it to attack multiple of them without even needing to try harder to make those attacks hit. That was just the benefit of being larger. However, Walker was able to sense the manas within its body and how it moved. The frosty mist had shocked it since the twisting vine serpent had never encountered the cold.

He also noticed a few plants which had immediately wilted. Some of them had even dropped leaves right away. This entire jungle had been held at a constant temperature. Was a constant state where the monsters and plants within could survive easily. They did not have to deal with the effects of the cold or of longer months where snow and ice built up.

"Water mages, prepare to condense the water mana. I am going to make your water mana in to a wave of frost. Then we will use it to create ice spikes." There was easily enough mana for Walker to make this happen by himself. But that would have been pointless.

If he did this.. He would waste all the effort and time that came with teaming up with one another. He and the others were fighting together, not just letting Walker act as a body guard. They needed to experience this since the party would not be able to lead them at all times. The representatives of Genesis were not able to always stand in front of them to lead these dungeon explorations.

What if the party or the representatives did nothing next time? Would every single soldier be lost? Or would they have a terrifying experience while yielding almost no result whatsoever? The odds that they would be able to rely on just their training alone to fight this sudden monster would be slim to none. They had to follow the lead of someone with experience fighting sudden large monsters like this. They would then pass that knowledge down.

The resonating water manas allowed for Walker to easily take ahold of it. His focus was on the same level as the water mages. They had immediately acted because they heard the confidence and reassurance in Walker's voice. Their trust was exactly what Walker wanted to

see.

They all pulled water mana from the air and condensed it. Causing water to begin to form around like a slightly warm rain. This was their training in action. They could work alone or in a group like this. The event when Genesis had freed the vampires while working together with many to create a forest was enough evidence that working together could cause amazing things.

This inspired many joint trainings that had led to this moment. Entire adventurer groups of mages even worked together now. They would gather manas while the one with the best control would shape it in to brutal attacks or powerful spells that could clear the land.

Right now though, Walker used his skills to shape the water mana in to a ave of deeply cold frost. Leaves froze in a blast of cold while the twisting vine serpent was thrust into a shocking experience it had never felt before.

'The skill tundra wave has been taken from the tundra builder class. The skill tundra wave has been automatically learned.

Tundra wave- inner mana for manipulation required based on the amount of outer water mana manipulated.

Often a skill used within a group of tundra builders, this skill utilizes the naturally high water mana to create a nearby blizzard blast of cold air. This forces the water mana in the air and whatever is hit to freeze even more of the surroundings. This then allows for frost and dense ice to begin forming. The air becomes so cold that even the tougher defenses of earth monsters begin to break down.

The larger the water mana controlled, the more mana is needed to use this spell. The ice left behind will be highly resistant to the immediate heat of the sun and even cause nearby water

sources to begin to freeze...'

Feeling the information of yet another skill enter his mind, Walker made note to consider what a tundra builder was later. Right now, he looked at the twisting vine serpent which had been hit by the tundra blast. Its thick bark scales were cracking and even flailing off. Clear it was in a lot of pain. But it had also been massively slowed down. So much so that it was partially frozen to the ground.

This was not even mentioning the damage to the jungle around them. The tundra blast was carving out a large area of green which was now frozen in to what could only be a strange winter wonderland. No jungle froze like this. It was not normal. It had a unique beauty

though.

The melee class user soldiers rushed in. Their spear, sword, and dagger strikes caused the twisting vine serpent to crumble. Literally and metaphorically. In just a few minutes, the large monster which had easily broken their defenses left the world and its body behind. "You all just saw how we should cooperate in an instant. You also saw that this environment is not as advantageous for earth mages. You will need to partner with the water mages. For now. We will search the frozen area for usable materials. Some small monsters were frozen too."

With Walker pushing them onwards, the soldiers with him did not flinch or step back in fear. They drank small healing potions and kept to their duties. They had a lot more to explore here.
