Jobson11dCommentedWell, someone bigger than a bus coats his own body in diamonds, so coating a city in less valuable metals is nothing but a step from there...
Who would even do that?! That metal must be worth a damned fortune, and you decided to coat your damned outhouse in it? Make it make sense!- Jobson19dCommented
That's a strong neck! If he was to land on his legs though...
Instead, I plummeted down and smacked face first into the waves. It felt like I ran straight into a rock wall. Unpleasant to say the least. - Jobson19dCommentedLanding in the water wasn't my most graceful landing, I'm going to own up to that straight away. I'd love to tell you that I masterfully manipulated the sparkling waters of the Lake using my mana, gliding to my ship upon a wave shaped like a herd of horses.

That wouldn't really solve the corruption problem: they would just send throwaway assassins to duel/trick any council members and blademasters who doesn't side with their villainy, resorting to poison and such. It would just get many good blademasters killed, crippling their overall combat force. Democracy (discussions , voting, laws) works better than duels: they can't resort to force or tricks to get rid of the competition.
[Blademasters are not allowed to be officials. But we are allowed to duel them.] - Jobson2mthReplied to Dragoon1988
they could still do other things to make money out of that situation, like selling food, beverages and souvenirs of some sort
[I shouldn't be surprised,] she eventually mutters to herself. [The Folk are obsessed with fighting, always have been, and the chance to prove themselves against a rare, mythic monster is like throwing gold in front of a brathian. They can't possibly resist.] - Jobson2mthCommented
the descriptions remind me a little oh Otoh Gunga, too bad this is the only gif I found around here
The brathian seem to have a way with coral. They use it for their buildings, some of them anyway, growing and shaping it into whatever dimensions they want. The spire is absolutely covered in the stuff, all of it glowing bright beneath the waves, and teaming with brathians. There are glowing docks extending out from the mountain, and I see hundreds and hundreds of ships, some with bubbles, some without, all tethered and hawking their wares. - Jobson3mthCommentedIt was time to accept that her fury, her rage, was a part of her. It belonged to her, and she would no longer let it be in control. She would clothe herself in fury, she would wear it like armour.

Maybe your acid is more effective here, battle organic goop with your business district most famed produce.
How the heck did it take no damage from the fire attack? I need to study the opponent further! Still assuming that fire is a weakness of these creatures, I spin up multiple minds that begin hurling concentrated balls of flame at the creature. The spells streak through the air, crackling with potent heat, only to sink into the slug and dissipate with a rather limp puff sound. - Jobson5mthCommented
everyone thinking of implosion, me thinking of gore explosion:
I mean…. A lot. If there was enough of the stuff, I could form a gravity bomb… inside them. - Jobson6mthReplied to Used_Username
Antigen... wait a second...
"Oxygen levels are falling." - Jobson6mthReplied to S_Velsdadt[Awesome! I'm going to have to get those demon cores ready for you three. Exciting stuff!]
- Jobson7mthCommentedIf seeing a tier seven monster had been a remarkable sight, seeing him flop onto his back and kick his six legs in the air while screaming with laughter in her head was quite another experience.
- Jobson8mthCommentedAn enormous, elongated caterpillar squirmed towards them, acid rolling from its body and sizzling on the rocks below. The soldiers received its charge, ignoring the pain as the burning liquid splashed on their carapace. With their enormous heads and reinforced mandibles, they latched onto the beast, halting its momentum and tearing at its soft flesh as the rest of the formation took shape behind them.
- Jobson8mthCommentedAfter a moment of hesitation, Solant and her twenty broodmates clamber onto my carapace, some clinging to my sides since they don't all fit and even on top of each other. Especially since Crinis refuses to make way for them.

Don't open the replies down below, people are talking spoilers.
"No time for stupid! Do it!" - Jobson10mthCommentedTorrifex launches his fireball, and at the last possible moment, I dive from my platform and freefall downward. Behind me, the fireball detonates like a miniature sun. A very angry, rage-filled sun.

ZH's fan, that guy's arm is deteriorating... I guess he's a suspect.
The main reason for that was the explosive piece of news they received. Everyone had always thought that the deterioration of their physical condition was due to the radiation they had received, but they did not expect that a human factor could actually be involved. - Jobson1yrCommented
You know what? I just thought about a possibility: maybe the key person is just someone who stayed (or was left) behind and needs to be brought out of the city for the mission to be completed. Just a random thought.
Fortunately, Zhang Heng spoke up, "It's fine. The residents of the evacuated the town in a hurry, so they didn't take much with them. There should be a lot of food in their fridges and kitchens. The militia probably didn't touch those things. As usual, try to pick processed food with sealed bags. If you can eat the food in the fridge, then eat it." - Jobson1yrReplied to johnnysleepsalot
It seems there's often some difficulty for translators (and even more for machine translations) to discern between "killed" and "knocked out" when it comes to Chinese. A similar situation (though not a translation one) also happens in my language, Portuguese, when it comes to games, where everyone says "I killed it" or "it died" even when the game makes it clear we just knocked the enemy out.
The crowd didn't waste any more time. They directly dragged one of the two young nurses who had been knocked unconscious in the inpatient department into the car.
