Ryan thought that he wouldn't level up his skills a lot since he was only doing some support work. Still, much to his surprise, Draconic Transformation leveled up three times in a single hour. After wondering why that happened, Ryan considered that it was due to the massive mana he was using to teleport himself and the monsters around.
"While that is good and all, I want to level up my main classes," Ryan rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Still, since we are only facing lone targets so far, maybe I shouldn't hurry."
Or maybe Ryan should hurry since things were proceeding too well, and that could change at any minute. However, since the mission's goal was to decrease Poseidon's army, Ryan decided to stick with the plan.
"I guess we should try to move more around the coast," Gustavo said. "I think we will have better chances of finding other Hydras by doing that. What do you guys think?"
"What if the Hydras attack while we are away?" Bianca asked with her arms crossed.
"That is a problem, isn't it?" Gustavo said and then scratched the back of his head.
"If we capture some Hydras and use their spirits to enchant some Ballista, the people who will stay in the city will have the means to fight back," Ryan said. "Killing them will probably be impossible by using such a weapon alone, but at least it will make the monsters leave to recover their wounds."
Gustavo looked at his friends, and they nodded at him. That seemed like a plausible plan, and since the survivors dismantling the corpses weren't fast enough, that was the only thing they could do. Gustavo and his friends also had plenty of experience crafting weapons, so they quickly created several Ballista. Due to their size, only those who had more than five hundred mana points would be able to use them, but they would need at least projectiles at least that big to pierce the Hydra's skin, so it couldn't be helped.
After forging those weapons and spreading them around the coast of Rio de Janeiro, Ryan returned to his work as a bait. Although it took a while, around noon, the city survivors had some crazy Ballista at their disposal. Even better, those weapons were specialized and good at hunting aquatic monsters.
Heroic Fisherman's Ballista
Effect: At the cost of five hundred points of mana, it grants the user the chance to fire a massive spear that causes thirty percent more damage at enemies in the ocean.
Dexterity + 700
Durability: 500/500
Just like Ryan, Gustavo and his friends could use Magic Upgrade. Still, after testing the weapons a few times, they concluded that was unnecessary for the time being. Besides, they needed a break, so they stopped for lunch since all the tension of the fights wore down their nerves.
"What do you want to eat, Ryan?" Gustavo asked. "I think we should eat whatever we want and as much as we want to celebrate and to recover our energy. I never thought we would be able to kill one hundred of those beasts in a single morning."
