The Blood Cry City.
A city in the Redmatter Planet.
This planet has this name because of the Red soil it has. All kinds of different soils and rocks it has, are red in color. Everything about this place is red. Even the plants that grow on this land are red in color.
This planet is one of the most chaotic planets in the world. Only five percent of the land on this planet was conquered. The small patches here and there and all of them have wormholes that connect to the other planets and even other realms.
n.o.body knows the reason why the whole planet is red. There are many legends regarding this place, but there is one more popular than all the others combined.
It was said, that a G.o.d was killed on this planet and his blood seeped into the whole planet. They say it gave this place the color it got. It was said that the whole planet has mutated and given out this red color.
Every resource that was in this soil, the metals, rocks, plants, herbs, and even the beasts, all of them mutated.
Even the cultivators that are used to be in this place were mutated and a new race was created. They are called the Bloodborne. They are humanoid monsters that are seven feet tall. They have an extremely high conception rate. They eat anything that breathes and has flesh on its body.
They are extremely vicious and there is no means to communicate with them. They have fully red skin and their heads and upper chests are covered with fur. The legs below the knee caps also have fur but not as much as the heads.
They are like beasts, acting on instincts and are great natural hunters.
Their flesh is not good for cultivators to eat and even the beasts that eat it, go through some mutations, that is if their central nervous systems can handle it.
But these Blood Born have one particular use and that is being a great research material. The genetic data these things offer is way too much.
In fact, some of the samples are in the genetic labs that Sam destroyed previously. The Planet with over ninety-five percent land is completely unconquered and full of resources. The cities that were established in this place are a bit network of goods.
They find all kinds of mutated, herbs, beasts, metals, and other things in the surroundings. Even the spirit stones of this place are rare and there is only one city on this planet that has access to the mine.
Even they couldn"t mine it at full swing and can barely get sc.r.a.ps.
But the most precious resource of all is the Bloodborne.
Bloodcry city is the second most powerful city on the planet and it is run by an organization that is just one rank below Sivan"s Clan.
But this city is also the biggest producer of BloodBorne and the ones that consume all of them are one of the branches that were under Sivan"s control.
That is the Red Glove Mercenary group.
The Mercenary group is the strongest force right behind the city authorities. The city authorities don"t go deep into the forests outside though. Their income comes from the taxes paid by the people inside the city.
Everyone who enters the city needs to sign a soul contract agreeing to share their earnings.
If they do not sign it, they wouldn"t be allowed past the wormhole. A consummate middle-stage cultivator guards the wormhole, so it could be said it is impossible to enter.
Of course, if Sam had the dimensional drifter, he would have easily come in, but now he also needs to sign the contract.
At this moment, Sam is currently drinking inside a bar.
Even the wine in this place is different because of the fruits that are obtained here. But he must say it really is a great liquor.
He is sitting by the window as he looked at the tower right across the street.
The tower belongs to the Red Glove Mercenary group.
He has been observing that for quite a while and he is also waiting for the Specter to come back.
After another hour of looking at it, Sam left the bar and went to the inn he boarded in.
Specter appeared out of thin air and stood in front of him.
"Now, what is the status? Did you do as I asked you to do?"
"Yes, Sir. I placed a curse on one of them. I would be able to trace him easily."
"Good. Now, try to get the layout of the tower. I need to make some special preparations. It has been a while since I did something big. I need to prepare for the Disciple One to come here."
"What kind of plan is it boss? Can I help in any way?"
"Just keep your souls ready for the possession, any soul that you have collected in the past few exploits but doesn"t give any significant growth, keep them ready and feed them some extra energy. I need you to control a lot of bodies at the same time for me."
"Okay boss."
Sam sat on the bed as he created small condensed energy pellets in the size of a thumbnail as he arranged them three-dimensionally in the air.
He started simulating some formations while containing them all inside an energy barrier. He also set up a special formation barrier that conceals everything. So, even if Disciple One comes here, it would be hard for him to find where Sam is.
And there is also another strict rule in the Inn he is currently staying in. No one is allowed to fight in this place and that rule applies to everyone including the Red Glove Mercenaries.
This inn is run by the city authorities, so no one dares to do anything inside the inn. As long as Sam is staying here, he will be completely safe.
For the next few days, Specter was on move. It followed all the Red mercenary group members and exactly two days later, it gave the required tower layout to Sam.
After getting the layout properly, Sam started creating more simulations.
Five days later, finally, the specter came and informed us about someone Sam is waiting for.
"Disciple One has arrived."
The news put a smile on his face as he looked forward to dealing with the guy.
Disciple One directly entered the Red Glove Mercenary tower. Technically, being the direct disciple of Butler Si, he is superior in the chain of command. He directly met with the Leader of the Red Glover Mercenary group.
"h.e.l.lo, Sir. It has been a long time since I saw you. What brought you here?"
The leader greeted him with a pleasant smile.
"I have some business here. A person named Sam is targeting all of Young Master Sivan"s organizations. He is a tough opponent. By now more than three dozen organizations were destroyed. He should have already been here by now.
I am here to kill him."
The head of the Mercenary group was stunned. He didn"t expect the first words Disciple one would speak would be news that his organization might be destroyed.
But he recovered pretty quickly and said.
"When will he be coming, Sir?"
"Within the next ten days, he might come anytime. Tell your subordinates to be extra vigilant. If I am not wrong, he might have even come here to make preparations. These are the portraits. He might wear this cloak and the mask; behind that mask, this is his face.
Tell your subordinates to take a look around the city and alert your contacts in the city authority to see if they identify anyone."
"Yes, Sir. We will do as you say."
He immediately summoned his deputies and started giving orders. After giving the immediate orders, he proceeded to introduce Disciple one to the rest of the subordinates and warned them to listen to his command.
The leader of the Mercenary group is actually a Peak stage Transcendent cultivator. If not for the backing of Sivan and his subordinate organizations, there is no way he would be able to hold on his own in the Redmatter planet.
So, he clearly knew who the real boss was and gave up all the command over his troops to Disciple One.
Meanwhile, Sam also started the next phase of his preparations.
"Specter, proceed with the next step. Are the souls ready?"
"Yes, Boss."
"Pick the targets wisely and make sure that you are at your hundred percent at all times. If you need anything, tell me now."
"If I have a formation supporting me with energy, I would do much better Sir."
"Okay, then."
Sam immediately place a formation within the room.
"Is this enough?"
"Yes, Boss. Thank You. I will handle this from here."
With that, the Specter Closed his eyes, and a bunch of souls suddenly sprung out of its body. The souls are screaming and trying their best to get out of the grasp, but they are unable to do so. With just one thought, they were immediately silenced and turned invisible.
Only the specter can see them now. All of them were shot out of the window as they made their way towards the forest outside of the city.
