Master Of None-Chapter 2798. First things First

"Well that sounds like a mess."

"Maybe a small understatement Su, it sounds like it's just a huge explosion away from making the whole area unlivable for years." Remey was a bit more blunt but she was right. This was a challenge that could halt exploration in the area around these islands and also be an issue for those who wanted to live around here.

"There are also the issues with caves that looked like normal rock or even sand and people could fall through. We will need earth mages or miners, even someone with trap expertise might sense the dangers." In Gil's mind. He was trying to see who they might need for the explorers of this area to move about safely.

They all knew that some classes had natural attunements to dangerous places. Miners who were naturally inclined to cavernous dangers would have an innate sense of when they were in a dangerous potion where they might fall. It was like a sixth sense that told them their were not walking on steady ground and that they couldn't mine somewhere.

"It's not that large of a problem now that we know about it. We will prepare and everyone that is exploring underwater, they will know not to go in to any caverns without proper scouting."

"We should worry about the inexperienced scouts." This was the first thing that Alice had spoken up about. So far she had actually had a peaceful journey. She had been working to teach a few of the craftsmen how to use the small first aid kits that she and the other healers prepared. Overall she has been a teacher this whole time.

"They have already been returning with small injuries. Some of them are not taking the right precautions so we need to send more of the golems to assist them or to scout in their place." Alcie knowing this was because the healers handled the injuries. Even the smallest injuries needed to be checked.

It wasn't overly worrying or paranoid beliefs that came with that either. They were in an unexplored land where something small might have enough poison or venom to kill someone before anyone even realized it. Therefore the safe protocol was to send anyone injured to a healer first.

"I have noticed that a few of the weaker potions are missing faster than I planned. Is that what's causing it?" Alcie nodded to Remey to affirm her suspicion. "Then we need to tell them to back off and recognize actual injuries. Potions put weight on your body and using them for all the little things isn't worth it."

It was fair that Remey was annoyed by this. Overreliance on potions that should be used for larger than just scratches would make a difference on someone's body. They needed the nutrients within their body to ensure they healed, so using potions often would make them hungrier or weaken them if they were not eating properly to replenish what their bodies used.

Even the smallest scratches happening time and time again when treated with potions, would have a negative effect. That wasn't to mention that some people might develop resistance to the herbs used within that batch of potion. Something rare but more common with the people who utilized potions constantly.

"I think we should make them understand the risks and change the procedures. Captains only can approve potion usage or healers themselves." Onyx was already making solutions. He knew that his serpents were all around every ship whether it was flying or floating. He could make sure they also kept a close eye on the potion usage and make sure that it was not abused. Some wounds were better to heal naturally anyways.

"That would be wise, we should give a few warnings and make sure that people are using the training they have to actually resist, prevent, or heal naturally from wounds." This might end up with a few unhappy scouts and guards, but it was for the betterment of everyone in the long run.

They also had to consider how long rations and potions would last. They couldn't be foolish in their usage when they were so far from home. Even with the hero party with them, that was not an excuse to be excessive.

"This isn't new, there are adventurers that have the same problem, but now they can learn from us rather than learn the hard way." The long sigh that Su had after saying this ended when she looked at Walker who was holding up the sulfur moss. "That's the moss you said fairy dragons eat? Are you going looking for them?"

"I want to, if there are other types of dragons here I want to learn if they are intelligent or if they are the same as monsters. It could be a big deal for the dragon race if we have more answers for this." Everyone knew why Midnight might want to look, but Walker also seemed to be interested in uncovering more aspects of dragon history.

It had split when the dragons in the Sigil continent had gone wild. They split their bloodline and went rogue becoming nothing but monsters. The dragons who had remained in Genesis's continent were maintained but their number had dwindled along with their strength. And potentially, something entirely different had happened here on this continent where monsters had lorded over everything.

"I think that's important too. The dragons in the elemental planes are so different too." It wasn't surprising that Remey caught on to Walker's thoughts.

They had encountered those who had been stuck in the elemental planes and vice versa for the world. It meant that they had all developed entirely different from their counterparts. Some races within the elemental planes or the world had ceased to be where their other halves had changed immensely to become something entirely different.

The light angels in the light elemental planes had become less like the angels here in the world. They were sharper and they served the rulers of the light elemental planes. They were a force of order that maintained the rules of the light elemental plane and they were less like a race than they were a force of guards.

Whereas the angels in the world had maintained their potential to have different or multiple affinities. They also grew and developed differently while caught within their own inner racial struggles. It was very different but also separated them as entirely different races now.

"So we are going hunting for dragons. Sounds fun. But you are going to look in the water a little first?" Double checking, Gil looked at Walker to see if they had to go for a swim.

"I actually think we should leave it alone and just give warnings. The underwater golems and scouts are already working. We should let them know the dangers and how to avoid them. Otherwise, I think we should take the flying ships and set camp now." It was a little surprising that Walker was making this choice, yet, it made some sense.

Leaving the underwater forces and the floating ships would allow for the merfolk who wished to attempt to make this a home for their race which would be much safer the chance to do so. They would not have the help of a hero unless they asked for it. Instead, they would take all the growth they had achieved and grasp a future they desired with their own hands. It would hold greater meaning and inspire the generations of those who did not wish to lean on others for help.

"Agreed. When do we go exploring on solid ground?" Alice leaned forward waiting for an answer. Apparently, she was not enjoying the constantly moving ships on the water of the shifting ships in the air. But to be fair, she was not necessarily one to have to deal with these situations often.

"You are just waiting to see if you can teleport home to sleep in your own bed, aren't you?" Walker watched as Alice's face turned a little red. He had hit the nail on the head. However, it went a long way to calm everyone's nerves and relax them. From this point on they would push on to the mainland, those here would set their floating camp and explore with extreme caution.

"We can reinforce the exploration of the water once we have the teleportation formation made. That's simple. So let's make it happen." It was the best move. Prepare better defenses and ability to get more help or send those home who needed to return. Overall, it was the best and first priority.

Without any more talk, they all finished a few snacks and began issuing orders with all the information that Walker, Midnight, and Remey had gleaned. It was just a matter of time before they set foot on the mainland.
