"Don't even think about testing those here!" John shouted, stepping between the girls and a huge hill of different types of grenades.
"These aren't the standard explosives we're used to. You saw how scary one is! A single one can saturate an area of a few hundred meters in a deadly firestorm. Don't use it in here, or else the Mana mine will explode, and we'll be goners!"
John wasn't exaggerating in the slightest. The single grenade they had randomly picked and tested earlier had painted a terrifying picture; it had blanketed a thousand-meter radius in a haunting blue flame that refused to die for an hour.
Seeing the persistent fire and its terrifying scale, John felt a genuine flicker of fear that such volatile explosives might accidentally reach the Mana mine and set the entire ridge ablaze if they continued testing them here.
He redirected the girls toward a barren, distant stretch of land closer to the distant walls, where the ground was nothing but packed dirt and silence.
