《This world is strange》Chapter 92. Sneaking
Advertisement
After the golems were done they made plans to get in.
First they tried to sneak past the guards and cast the spell to open the door.
They went to the back of the tower and walked along it until they saw the guards at the bottom of the stairs. Then walked behind them on the stairs. They didn't notice them so far.
After they walked up the stairs Joseph saw the turrets moving and stopped Catherine with his left hand and shook his head.
She stayed at the top of the stairs, while he walked closer. After he got close enough to do the spell the turrets locked on him. He ran back.
They started to move idly again. They watched them for a little bit, when a bird flew in front of the door. The turrets shot it into pieces.
Joseph leaned closer and whispered to Catherine.
"I don't know how to deal with those."
"I have an idea, but it's loud. I think the two at the bottom would find us, if we would do it."
"I would also like to keep them, if it's possible. Also I think they are just as though as the armors, so I'm not sure if we can break them."
"Then I got an other idea. What if I make something around them, that blockes them from moving and seeing?"
"That might be a good idea. Can you do it from this distance?"
"I can try. Also you can help me."
"Sure. What do you want to do?"
"Simply freeze them in a block of ice."
"How?"
"Summon water around them and freeze it."
"You know how to do that?"
"I don't know how to summon water, but if we get it into my pocket dimension, we can get it here. Freezing it is easy."

"I see."
Joseph thought for a second.
"I might not be able to summon water, but I might be able to do something similar."
"Really?"
"I can only try."
"Alright! Just say it when you want me to freeze it."
Catherine took a ready position, when Joseph closed his eyes.
'The air is somewhat humid. If I can just get all the water compressed, it should turn into a liquid.'
He imagined all the water from the air make bubbles around the turrets and then opened his eyes. The air around them got a lot drier in a few seconds and they saw the water enclose the turrets.
"Now!"
"Freeze!"
Both of the bubbles froze up in a second.
They looked at eachother smiling.
Joseph walked closer, while whispering.
"I thought you don't need to say anything to cast a spell."
"It just helps to make it faster."
"I see."
He walked close enough, but the turrets couldn't move and didn't try to shoot at the ice.
"It seems safe."
"Alright!"
Catherine walked closer as well.
"Can you teach me later on how did you make all that water?"
"Ofcourse."
As they walked closer to the door they heard some creaking from down the stairs.
"Intruder detected."
"Oh no!"
"The turrets are unable to move."
The robots started to walk up the stairs.
"Intruder ellimination started."
Catherine grabbed Joseph's arm.
"There is no time. Seems like it didn't work."
They disappeared from the door and reappeared at the camp. Supprising Leonard.
