Freezing Point Part 3

"Have you guys tried mining that ice spike in the middle of town?"

"Yes, that is one of the projects we have in mind. If we are completely mine that out we will have more room"

"Ok, where are you guys keeping all the extra pits you are mining out?"

"Over here, follow me."

Catox said to Mors as he led the group to where all the extra pieces of the ice that have been mine out are being kept. This led the group to a corner of the city. Where a semi-deep pit has been dug out. Inside this pit are countless different sizes and shape ice shards. The cold wind that emanates from the pit is not any less than the one coming from the spike.

Mors summons one of his copies' as he makes it climb down and grabs one of the ice shards. The copy does as it's commanded to do. Soon climbing the pit and arriving next to Mors. As it hangs over the cold hand size of ice shard, disappearing as it does.

Mors looks at the ice shard in his hand as he plays around with it. He feeds it his Qi, only for the ice to get colder and denser. When he stops he notices that the Qi / the energy inside of the ice started to slowly get out of it. From his calculation, it will take at least 10 days for the ice to start melting. It might fully melt by the end of the month.

"This is the key to our victory."

"The ice?"

"Yes the ice, this thing will melt in a month if it's not fed Qi. If we gather big enough pieces of ice and feed it to the cannon and shoot it at the Kraken. It will severely weaken it"

"That is possible, if we combine that with the soul shots from the cannons we will severely weaken the Naga and allow for Catox and Second death to deal with it."

One of the Ghost commanders said as he thought of the possibilities of using the ice against the Naga.

"Then you guys just have to bring the Nagas to the surface for this plan to work"

Izora said as she looks at Catox and Mors.

"We have the right bait then they will follow us out of their homes. From the way I see it, you guys already know of a way to do that."

Mors said as he looks at Catox.

"I don't know if it would work now. Before they would chase us if we stole the Ghost marbles from them. It would then lead to a fight will trade lives. But in the past battle thanks to your help, we destroy their army. I don't think they will be stupid enough to send out another army after that."

"Then we just have to siege them out"

"Ho- oh I see what you mean."

Catox said as he looks at Mors, who nodded his head to confirm what Catox had in mind. The Nagas need it to eat unlike the Ghost and with Mors unlimited army. Starvation is the best motivator to do something that you will consider stupid. Like sending your army out of your city to meet the Ghost on the beaches of the island, in range of cannon fire.

"I take it you guys like my plan?"

"Of course! Such a plan will have never crossed our minds. It's truly a blessing you came when you did Second Death."

"Yes it is"

Mors said with a smile on his face.

---------Naga pov-------

The Naga city underneath the island of Bones is truly magnificent. The roads are paved with beautiful blue color stone bricks. The buildings are made of red stone bricks. Small channels are built next to the grey pathways, water flows through the channels. Keeping the air and temperature in the city cool and refreshing.

Nagas could be seen walking around with jewelry around their necks and arms. Bracelets and amulets of gold and multi-color gems. This city can hold up to 3000 people. But the Nagas did not build all of this by hand.

"Move you shitty Ghost!"

The sound of whips hitting the back of blue Ghost echoes on the street. A Naga overseer hits the Ghost with a whip, the tips of which are coated in a blue-ish energy. The ghosts are the Naga's slaves. The Nagas are strong physically and magically. But they aren't great builders.

One of the Nagas ignores the scene of the Ghost being hit. With a staff in hand that is decorated with gems and gold depicting the image of ancient gods. The Naga makes it way to the center of the city. Where a large circular building lays. The large double door of the building is guarded by two strong-looking Naga warriors.

Who bow down and let the Naga Priest walkthrough. The Naga enters the building. He is greeted with a large coral and gold throne built in a man-made gold and coral platform. Surrounding this platform is shallow cold water. The Naga submerges itself in the water.

The water reached halfway into his chest. He swings towards the throne, where a large Naga is coiled around it. This Naga has six arms and three thick tails. The Naga head is closer to that of a lizard than a snake. This Naga has beautiful green color glass scales.

The Naga priest arrives in front of the Naga Kraken and bows down.

"I greet the Holy Kraken, Green count."

"Yes yes.. Did you finally find the runaway Ghost? I lost 200 good men in that fight!"

"No, my lord but worry not, the conduits are asking primordial Death as we speak."

"Goo-"

Soon the door of the building is swung open as a Naga Warrior comes rushing in. The warrior soon arrives in front of the Naga Kraken and Priest as it spoke.

"We have urgent news your majesties! The Ghost is sieging the city!"
