Development of the land where the earth chimera had settled was going smoothly. Walker was glad to see that they were not just making small earth dens. It was actually more closely resembling the ways that the goblins had built some of their homes mixed with the caverns they had come from when Walker first met them.

Where things were different was that the earth they shaped was fairly tough and well condensed. A clear example of what they could do with their earth mana affinity.

There has also been some food brought over. Primarily earth affinity monster meat which has made every single earthen chimera halt what they were doing. They could sense the earth mana within the meat and they knew that it was something they could easily consume.

When it came to trusting it though, there was a hesitation and clear addition of aggression in the way they watched the soldiers who brought the carts of meat. Walker had to step in one more time to make sure that their natural instincts to attack were not taking over.

The first earth chimera that came over stopped most aggressive actions though. Its single roar made every other earthen chimera step back while she picked what she wanted and brought it all back to her cubs.

The dynamic that the other earthen chimera kept for the parent that first came through was clear. She was stronger and able to handle the leadership. If she was to eat, then they could also eat. If she was safe and allowed her cubs to eat then the others could do the same. Not only did she stand as the leader of the group in strength, it was also as the one who would face danger first.

While Walker felt that it was odd since she was a parent to multiple earthen chimera cubs, he didn't want to say or do anything to change that. If this was the culture that the earthen chimera were developing, he was not in any position tos stop them from that.

Besides, every culture had times in their furthest history where they began to do something different than the natural born instincts which they had. They had to shape their intelligent culture some how.

Some had begun to follow ancient monsters or believe in religions. Others had begun to look into the way that the world worked around them. However, all of them had those moments where they showed a start of their culture. This was one of those that had existed within the earth elemental plane but now Walker was witnessing.

He didn't have to do anything else for the remainder of the day, in actuality, he felt that there was plenty better to be left alone for the time being. Those earthen chimera who had been injured were resting while many others appeared to be finding better position for where they might live and build their own huts.

While it was clear that trust was not developing further just yet, the earthen chimera didn't seem to need to eat as often as what Walker predicted. Most likely because they had been smaller monsters in a land where there were even larger predators than them.

Most of the time the monsters that were preyed on or that could not find prey as often would learn or grow to not need to eat as often. This would allow them to survive off of less food and mana than what others might need. It was also a way to be able to hide for longer and resist any of the dangerous aspects of their environment.

All of this could be put aside now though, Walker found that without the threat of a potential issue coming from the earth elemental plane, he could look at the other parts of the world.

Within Genesis, a lot of advancements still happen daily, he had expected to find that more would appear with the ideas of resistance training in mind.

He was right.

The rune carvers had managed to set up selected small areas made with resistant materials which were then carved with dangerous runes. For most of the purposes these runes had been used for were in trap formations. The ruins that some had explored had ancient traps or the remnants of traps at one point. They had been researched and were able to be replicated in today's age.

These traps would sometimes gather mana while they were not active, later they would be triggered and release that mana in a dangerous fireball for example. Walker had watched some of them and was already reaching the testing ground used for new rune formations.

The entire training ground was part of the crafting guild and the magic tower. They joined in on the so called claim to the rune carvers since the rune carvers could use both magic and also use basic materials.

As such, they were also very interested in the resistance training ideas and both pushed for the completion of these things.

"This is the first resistance training room we have completed fully. The fire room is still waiting on additional materials that can resist the heat which breaks most of the materials. The wind room is ideal though since many earth materials can resist it well."

The rune carver who was speaking to Walker was an apprentice serving under three rune carvers that had been leading this project. The apprentice had managed to learn a great deal and was not so well versed in rune trap formation that it was his specialty.

"The mana will constantly be absorbed from the area and be released in vicious winds and even a wind blade if need be. We have it lowered so that the wind will not create blades constantly. That would only be for those of well advanced resistances in magic and physical natures."

While the room they built on the testing field was small, it could easily fit for our five people. The forced metal was reinforced and used different alloys, all very tough. It would be extremely hard for any of the guards Walker knew of average or even advanced strength to put a dent in. it was certain that if the metal alloy was not so happy, it would be useful for transportation. Carriages made with it would be very strong and less likely to be harmed by monsters in transit.

This was why Walker was also interested in this alloy though, it was one that could easily resist wind mana so it might be valuable for the heavily armored guards who were going on about their strength to carry larger weapons and hit harder. Every single army and guard had a few people like that though.

"The wind mana will activate with additional mana touching the formation." With a small tap the apprentice started a swirl of wind that Walker could feel with the one sided door open. He used his mana sense to feel the danger.

Anyone who was not accustomed to the mana would feel a pressure and also struggle to breath or even use their own mana. It was overwhelming for most people. When a few small blades of wind flew about, Walker could sense the immense danger that was within the room that he was now seeing.

There was a great chance that people who had zero wind resistance would be harmed immensely. But those that needed to train their wind resistance would find that they were able to temper their bodies.

This was a major improvement with how they could learn to be able to travel in to the elemental planes. "How many different elemental rooms like this will be ready for the next month or so?" He looked at the apprentice who pointed out several others being tested.

"The water room is nearly complete, the fire is awaiting materials, the earth is hard and we need more runes to test, the dark and light are both nearly complete and by the end of the week we will test again."

"In that case, I want to send some people over to help you test. This will also be a good chance for us to include more healers who are going to work on affinity buffs which will protect others from different affinity magics."

He had his plans to begin improving those who had the chances to go to the elemental planes. Within a few months there was going to be better methods than just training one on one or going through harsh tests to improve resistances. The elemental resistances that everyone needed would be higher and higher as time went on as well. It was just a matter of time until they all had to deal with another elemental issue with mana flowing in to the world from the elemental planes.
