Chapitre 168: Working Together (4).

A clearing In the forest was a bit more densely populated by humans than the rest of the forest. Here, a group of 19 humans and a huge mutant beast scurried around doing all sorts of things. 

An old man who looked as though he had seen better days had a serious expression on his face as he stared at a drum of water. This drum was the same one Stan had made when they were at the shore and he had fought the {King Lobster}.

A magic circle hovered above his hand as he stared at the drum in complete focus. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead as he let out strenuous sounds.

Suddenly, his eyes widened as a dense blanket of white fog burst out of the magic circle and into the drum of water.

In the blink of an eye, the entire drum had frozen over. A white mist seeped out of the solid ice, causing the old man to have a pleased expression on his face.
