Chapter 1526: Kills
The City guard jumped into the yellow region, even though it is very irritating and his skin felt like it is being burned, it is way better than the red light that fell on him.
"Bro, what happened? We were told not to move. Are you alright?"
Another guard yelled from the side.
But he didn"t get any response. Because the first guard once again felt the red light coming on to him.
Even though he couldn"t see anything, for some reason, he could see this red light coming. He ran to the side, but no matter where he ran to, it started popping up there and only one path was left for him to take, which he took directly.
He didn"t even dare to try and tackle it.
It is like a cat and mouse game. The mouse is being toyed around by the cat. The guard kept on running as this red light chased him.
Before he knew it, he fell off the city wall.
As he was freefalling, he suddenly felt alive. He hit the ground and crashed, before standing up and running again as the light kept on coming at him.
When the light arrived, he is one of the people that is absolutely sure about his position. He stood at his post on the city wall.
He wanted to get out of there as soon as the light came. After all, the boundary of the light chamber area is not far away from him.
It only covered a small area around the city. He ran and ran and within three minutes, he suddenly saw the light. He rolled on the ground and came out of the light chamber area.
Cold air struck his skin as he felt the burning sensation ease up a bit.
He felt like he could die right then and there. Like he stepped into paradise from the h.e.l.l.
He looked at the clear sky and the trees around him. The gra.s.s and the soil had never felt before as he felt the breeze.
But that didn"t last long.
As he lay on the ground and took in the image of the sky and the surroundings….
*SMASH*
A large spear came from the side and landed on his head.
It smashed his head with lightning energy that destroyed the head and turned it into a paste. He died on the spot.
"First kill confirmed"
A young man on the tree spoke up. He is wearing an exoskeleton and armour and talked into the communication device to report to his team.
At the same time, a few meters away, another guard came out of the light area. But he didn"t fall on the ground, he just arrived out while running, but before he could even stop, the spear drove through his heart and took his body back into the light area.
"Second Kill confirmed."
On another side, two guards came out and two spears with fire elemental energy went through them. They burned through their stomachs and tore their bodies into two before they landed and created a zone of fire and incineration in which the bodies started burning into ashes.
"Third and Fourth kill confirmed."
Another guard ran out into those flames and was stunned. A spear came from a different side and landed on his throat.
"Fifth kill confirmed."
Sivan and Avlyn who are in the camp kept on hearing reports of guards being killed one by one. Within the formation, the number of people started reducing bit by bit. The guards that are near the entrance of the city and the wall are being directed to come out so that they can be ambushed and shot down by people.
Avlyn was surprised.
"You didn"t expect this did you?"
Sivan asked with a smile.
"Don"t get too c.o.c.ky. They are chump change, they are not even that big of a deal. In fact, they are the least troublesome people within the whole Gaja clan, what is the point of them coming out."
"Before you leave this place, I will make you admit the impressive nature of this. You are just way too stubborn and jaded."
Sivan said as he kept on directing guards out. He felt a bit of exhaustion hit him in the middle. For that, he took out a gourd and started sipping it. It is an extreme medicine that he got from the Divine league.
The medicine could help him recover his mental energy, but even that is not ideal.
If not for the fact that he cannot think of a better way to deal with the Gaja clan, he wouldn"t want to use this. He wants to save this for a special occasion when he truly needs this in future.
Sivan looked at the formation and suddenly, his attention was diverted to the dot that is constantly moving.
The dot that is indicating its location and movement of Sam.
He got an idea and smirked.
The red lights stopped arriving near the wall and were now focused on Sam.
Sam who is running towards the tower is already frustrated when he felt the red light falling on him.
"f.u.c.king h.e.l.l. He is really using it?"
Sam was so shocked as he endured the burning sensation over him. He jumped to the side and once again started running without wasting any time.
The red light morphed itself into some kind of ring and tried to block Sam"s path.
Sam didn"t care though, he jumped into the ring and ran past it even though it kept on coming. He increased the density of the energy barrier over the body and ran forward with everything he got.
The energy barrier can only eliminate so much heat though. It cannot completely negate it. He just took in the ma.s.sive burning sensation on his back and ran.
Within the next ten minutes, he managed to reach his location after a long time.
"Finally."
He ran into the tower.
Even the tower is completely blinding and the people inside are suffering.
He ran to the formation.
The formation that Sivan cannot see.
Sam went and sat in the middle of the formation. He tried to sense the other operators around the formation and after noticing that they are still there, but not in their positions, he spoke out loud.
"This is Sam. I want you guys to stay where you are. Don"t come near and don"t move at all. I want you guys to sit on the floor where you are."
The operators were kind of freaked out, but Sam didn"t care.
"I know that your bodies are hurting and I am sure you want to get out of this blind maze, but if you go out now. You will be dead.
Dead as you can be."
They all gulped in nervousness as they sat down without any trouble.
Sivan looked at the dot that stopped moving and frowned.
"What the f.u.c.k is he doing there. What is inside that tower that made him run like that, even risking his life."
"Maybe he is not the person you are looking for."
"How can that be? A person who can make a contract with the soul of the formation and run like this. I don"t believe anyone other than Sam is able to do that."
"You will be surprised. You never knew that these kinds of things could be created, but he still did that. So, what if there is someone who managed to figure out a way? He might just be a person who went there to meet his family."
Sivan thought for a moment, he wants to argue a bit, but Avlyn looked at me and asked.
"Why don"t you try your tricks on someone who is more powerful? Even if that person is weird, he didn"t do anything that could make you lose your cool until now. You are toying with them calmly. Use this time to do something for some really powerful people.
Try to push him out of the city and kill him."
Avlyn said as she pointed at one of the dots that is not too far away from the gate.
The person is actually doing very good. He is moving around a bit, and none of the soldiers around him is moving at all.
He is completely standing still and maintaining the situation around him calmly.
If he goes away, a bunch of troops will also go down with him. On top of that, he is also very powerful. He is at least a middle stage cultivator of Astral Plane Consummation.
Sivan looked at the dot and contemplated a bit, before moving the red light onto him.
At this moment, within the area that he is pointing at, a commander is controlling the troops that are going crazy with the glowing light.
"Come on guys. We need to stay strong. Sir Sam said that he is figuring out a way. So, don"t bow down to the hallucinations and certainly don"t attack your companions. Do you hear me?"
"Yes Sir."
His subordinates replied to him in unison.
