Sam checked the location for a bit and kicked the walls for a bit to make suitable grooves for himself.
"Chatur, are you sure everyone in the base is an enemy?"
"Yes, No one will join the Union sect by force. At this moment, the base is occupied by a special squad of the Union sect. The Dark Sky squad.
Made of Yaksha and their mounts Dark wind Owls. They are good at aerial battles and also airstrikes. The squad is tightknit."
"How many people do you think they have?"
"Around one hundred and twenty. That is only an average squad in the Union sect when we consider the squads by their numbers."
"Now tell me. Does your disguising powers only apply to yourself or can they be used to cover up something else?"
"I can do that."
"Okay, then go down and try to cover up the hole with your tricks and stay inside the hole, if anyone comes near the hole, take these out and press the b.u.t.ton on top and throw it at them with all you got.
If you can use disguise techniques on them, make them look like rocks and mix them up with real rocks and throw those things at them. It will work wonders if they landed squarely on their heads."
With that, Sam gave a s.p.a.ce jade ring full of grenades and Chatur took them before climbing down.
Sam activated his eye technique and the thermal vision together to see if he can get all the heat signatures. But the thermal signatures of Yaksha are clearly messed up, it is almost like they are as cold as corpses.
He then switched to the energy vision and got a good enough view of them. He counted the visions he got. The castle is not made of special material. But there is a formation inscribed on it.
The defense could be used to defend for quite a while.
Sam took out his sniper and aimed. He first shot a few energy cell bullets at various places of the castle. It is small and he can get a full isometric view of it along with all the stone houses around it. He could miss two to three houses covered from his view by the castle, but the rest is visible clearly.
He shot the nodes of the formation and the formation started fluctuating. But this also alerted the Yaksha in the castle and the stone houses.
The formation only defends the castle building and it comes with the castle itself which was the part of this dimension, to begin with as for the stone houses, are built by themselves and the main feature of this formation is that it can repair itself. Unless the core is destroyed within the castle"s foundation it wouldn"t be of any use. They can at most destroy it temporarily.
And Sam bought himself around an hour.
Seeing the chaos in the castle and all of them coming out to take their positions to defend themselves, Sam started his harvest.
The first targets are the people running out of the castle compounds. They are the people going out to scout. As for why they are not using their owls, they don"t want to catch too much attention if the attack is in order.
Yaksha also has humanoid bodies, except they have a body structure that is a bit different.
They are taller than average humans and shorter than Naga. And they have pale skin. They are one of the most beautiful creatures. But the only difference is that they don"t have mage and warrior differences and all of them are Warrior mages.
Unlike the humans and Nagas, their affinity and the usage of their powers will be happening since birth. But their growth rate is quite slow and there is not much advantage apart from the superior experience in their own powers.
The Yaksha will have patterns on their bodies on their collarbone area, the navel and on the back. The colors of the patterns indicate their elemental affinity and the area the pattern occupies when birth indicates their talent.
But the patterns expand all over their bodies with the growth in their cultivation and their strength can be estimated with the density of the patterns.
At this moment, Sam is aiming at the Yaksha who just got out of the castle compound and are vigilantly looking around.
He shot one of them straight in the head and the head exploded because he used an elemental cell bullet.
This will create more fear and the difficulty will increase for them to pinpoint the location because there will be no traces of the bullets and wounds left on the body.
After the first one was down, the remaining became afraid and looked around. Sam shot another person and then the rest of them didn"t even bother to stay there, they decided to leave and return to the castle.
But they couldn"t, because out of eight members that came out one after another was going down, and the last two finally figured which direction the attack is coming, but they cannot expand their spiritual sense that far and they don"t have the b.a.l.l.s to go near.
They ran towards a stone house and just before they could enter the house, one of them died right in front of the door. This time, though the remaining person has seen the type of attack that was made.
Someone opened the door due to the explosive sound and when he looked at the body, he didn"t let the remaining candidate come in, he called for someone else.
He seemed to be a figure of authority and he looked at the headless corpse and when he heard the account, he immediately wanted them to enter the house. But right before he could command, his head exploded and everyone looked towards the cliff.
They are sure that someone was attacking from that direction.
But they didn"t randomly run after it, they entered the stone house and warned everyone to get inside a covered s.p.a.ce.
Before the warning could reach another five people died.
Soon the whole castle fell into chaos and everyone went under the cover either into the stone houses or the castle itself to discuss what is happening. Sam activated the energy vision and locked onto one of the stone houses.
Since it is just some high-quality stone, he doesn"t have to worry too much.
He checked the positions of the targets and shot at the door of the house and a hole appeared and the second shot went through him and hit another guy in the heart and created a large hole in his body.
He moved a bit forward within the crack and he has barely enough gap to hold the rifle in the place as he continued shooting.
After another ten kills, the energy cell bullets are not exactly useful for the remaining stone houses, from his position they will explode before they reached the remaining stone houses, if he wants to attack with them, he could only go straight to the castle.
But he doesn"t want to yet. And one of the reasons is, he didn"t want to damage the castle too much so that the commanders will nitpick at him.
He changed the bullets and started using the penetration bullets and windows he could possibly get under his aim and shot ten more people. Now, everyone became vigilant and hid behind the stone walls. They didn"t even dare to look past the windows and doors.
At the same time, currently from the blind spot in which Sam couldn"t shoot behind the castle a team of thirty people left the place and started taking another route to reach the cliff from the rear.
Exactly towards the cave entrance Sam and Chatur took.
Chatur who hid under his painting illusion could see them coming and couldn"t help but feel tense.
He is really not good at battle. He can be calm when he escaped in front of a stronger enemy, but now that he was tasked to take on them, h was extremely frightened. He held a grenade in his hand and a paintbrush in another.
He painted it like a rock and placed it among a pile of rocks he collected, not all of them are rocks though, he looked at them and started throwing the rocks will all he got, even when they were not that close.
When the incoming Yaksha looked at the incoming rocks, they smiled and sent some long-range attacks to destroy the rocks and some of them even let them be as they are confident they wouldn"t hit and they realized what kind of mistake they did.
They are pin grenades and when they exploded right under their footsteps and in the middle of the groups, they are extremely horrified because five of them are riddled with the pins and more than ten of them are wounded.
When Chatur saw this from afar, even though he couldn"t see how much damage they took, he got some confidence.
