Sam, Noah and k.u.mar are currently looking at their wrists. They have something that looked similar to the wrist watches.
They turned the frame of the watch a bit and soon they started glowing.
"It seems like we are connected. Now, get ready and be careful."
Sam said while the guards are surrounding them. As he finished his words even before Noah and k.u.mar could even reply, they disappeared from the spot.
He closed his eyes and stood there nonchalantly as if he is not in the middle of enemy ground.
The surrounding guards were surprised by this sudden disappearance of the two intruders and became vigilant.
They split up and one group surrounded Sam.
"They are the three mercenaries from the Fiend tribe. They really did come."
The real target looked through the window and said to the guard a.s.signed to her. The guard also looked through the window with interest.
The guards surrounding Sam are vigilant because of his behavior, a person coming into the middle of their enemy ground and not doing anything. Just standing there as if he owns the place. It is not exactly a good sign for them.
But one of them gritted his teeth and made his move. He raised his hand and fire manifested at the end of his palm aimed directly at Sam.
A large orange fire ball came towards Sam, but it stopped mid-air before it could hit Sam and some invisible force diverted it towards another guard standing behind him.
The guards were stunned and soon they couldn"t hold the tension anymore and decided to attack together like a barrage.
Sam"s frown got deeper as the spiritual energy started coiling around him. The fire elemental energy that is coming of the burning earth moved around him with a glowing light like a flaming snake as it went after the fire elemental attacks aimed at him.
It didn"t block them or catch them, the snake just took the attack directly and let it bounce off into a different direction making the other guards his target.
The same went for the water elemental attacks, the wind elemental attacks and other elemental attacks.
The physical attacks however were stopped by the s.p.a.ce elemental energy.
Sam still has his eyes closed as all the attacks were diverted or stopped. Some guards already took some damage and the situation around him is in perfect control.
But that is not what he is worried about.
Currently, his focus is on the situation of Noah and k.u.mar.
After they disappeared from their initial arrival spot, Noah and k.u.mar reappeared in two different directions. But both of them are focused on the building of the fake target where the real guards of the Myriad Beast sect are stationed at.
Noah appeared on the rightside of the courtyard and k.u.mar on the left.
As soon as Noah arrived, she obviously attracted the attention of the guards.
But before they could come at her, she slammed some marbles to the ground and when the guards neared her, they became large vines as they coiled around them and at this exact moment, the lightning in the black clouds above them riled up.
And Noah suddenly disappeared from her spot.
*BOOM* *BOOM*
The lightning stuck on the guards that were blocked with the vines. Even though they didn"t die immediately they were heavily paralyzed.
Noah reappeared behind the paralyzed guards and finished them off, before she disappeared once again.
The other guards in the surroundings came over to catch her, but she was not there by then. But something else met them to their surprise.
The shadows of the guards rose from the dead bodies followed by the visible ghosts of the soldiers and finally the bodies themselves rose from the death.
The guards were caught off guard, but they recovered pretty quickly and let their beasts out. Unlike the first batch of the guards, they decided to take the help of their companions, but the beasts have one disadvantage they are just too big and could be hurt anywhere if someone knows how to hurt them.
A large earthen hand appeared and it caught the underbelly of one beast and large flames followed the arm as it started incinerating.
While it was stuck there, a large icicle formed in the clouds and pierced the beast on the back followed by the lightning that stuck the top of the icicle.
The beast died instantly and an undead shadow came from it catching the beast nearby. The undead guards directly went after the guards and attacked them.
As if that was not enough, Noah suddenly appeared behind them and started attacking them. The wood vines and the man-eating plants are working wonders as they killd them one by one and every dead body turned into an undead creature.
Sam actually is not controlling the undead creatures. The formations are creating the undead with the death energy obtained from converting the dark elemental energy. They are loose cannons and the death energy supports their sustainability.
They attacked every living thing around here and Sam"s only job is to make sure that Noah and k.u.mar are not near them or any other threat in the right moment and the right time.
At the same time, k.u.mar"s side is not that much different.
He didn"t have that many traps set, but he has some special spears prepared. Loaded spears, that is what Sam liked to call them.
k.u.mar loaded the spears with spiritual energy and locked it with his spear intent.
When he uses the spears to attack, the lock would be unlocked and all the energy locked inside would be used for that attack. It is that simple, brute force.
So, as soon as he arrived, he threw the spear to the nearest group of guards that are on to him.
One guard died on the spot and the other two lost their limbs due to the residues of the attack.
He then disappeared from the spot and some earthen quicksand traps appeared nearby capturing the nearest guards that just appeared.
The quick sand are laced with the fire elemental energy boiling them while k.u.mar appeared behind them and killed them on the spot.
The people that are watching the whole spectacle from the windows were surprised. They couldn"t understand how the two attackers are disappearing right when they were about to be attacked and reappeared right behind their own guards.
This is way too disadvantageous for them to be happening in their home turf. Literally their home turf.
The person in charge used the communication token to call for the formation masters at the pillars.
"What is happening? We are going down at a fast pace. We need to find out what is up with that formation? Any lead?"
"No, sir. But we are trying."
"Why don"t you just destroy the formation? The f.u.c.king backlash can go to h.e.l.l. I don"t care about that anymore. Even if we lost some people, It would be better than this s.h.i.t storm that is going on now."
"That is not it sir. There is one thing that we are sure about in this current situation. If any one of the pillars are destroyed we will all be dead in a single explosion."
"What do you mean?"
"The formation is a complex one. It doesn"t follow the regular techniques of this realm. It is a combined with both nodes and inscriptions and on top of that they were layered.
The only thing we could decode from that right now is that we don"t decode it properly and go on about it in a normal way, the formation creates a controlled energy explosion that destroys all of us in.
The energy capacity is too high and there are at least six elemental energies in play. It would be like millions of spirit stones worth of energy destabilizing at the same time and the six elemental energies will only create more destruction.
Even you will not be able to escape it sir. Even if you did, your body would be laced with elemental corrosion that would make your life a living h.e.l.l.
So, stop rushing us. We are trying our best."
The person in charge doesn"t even know what to do. He couldn"t think of a comeback to say to the rant the formation master gave him.
This is extremely dire situation and when he looked through the balcony once again, all he could see is Noah appearing wherever she shouldn"t be appearing and disappearing whenever she shouldn"t have.
And when he went to another window, all he could see is k.u.mar ripping through the guards like they were made of cotton candy.
There was no effort whatsoever. It is almost like the nature is helping them kill their guards.
Then finally he looked through the last window and there Sam just stood there with his eyes closed.
Occasionally, the metallic thing on his wrist is glowing, but apart from that, there is not a single movement or attack from him and none of the attacks made by guards landed on him.
