Giyon looked at the opponent in surprise. She has never seen him or heard of him, but from the looks of it Sam knew who he was and she could speculate who sent this guy.
But those speculations are what shocked her. If he belonged to either Sivan or the League, they wouldn"t normally dare to come inside and attack Sam, but if someone still came, they are either mad or they completely lost hope on their life and wouldn"t mind giving it away like this.
Sam"s barrier worked better than Giyon"s barrier as it repelled all the poisonous gas.
The man in the white robe took out some darts and started throwing them towards Sam. Even though Giyon is his toughest opponent there, he didn"t care, his target was Sam and he decided to focus on that one target.
Sam channeled the energy through the staff and shot energy bullets at the darts, even before the darts made their way to the barrier, the energy bullets reached them and exploded.
The darts didn"t reach and taking his opportunity, Giyon started attacking from the side as she came out of the barrier and punched at him.
The opponent threw a dart at her, but a thin translucent barrier appeared, not only did it block the dart in a timely manner, it also diverted it and the barrier immediately disappeared without hindering Giyon"s attacks.
*BAM*
The punch landed squarely on the man"s ribs and he flew past a dozen meters and crashed into the ground.
Giyon ran towards him to continue with her attacks.
The opponent spewed some blood out of his mouth and his white robe is no longer completely white, he took out two spherical fruit like objects and threw them towards Giyon and Sam.
While in mid-air, they started giving out this green smoke.
Sam didn"t know what they were, but he sure as h.e.l.l knew that they were not good to fall near.
He waved his staff and two energy bubbles formed around the two fruits, while they are still in their air, stopping them from hitting the ground.
As soon as they hit the bubble wall, they started spewing large amounts of poisonous green gas, which at the moment, is completely blocked by the two bubbles.
Giyon without any hindrance, managed to attack the guy once again and this time, she managed to land a critical blow, breaking his jaw while he was trying to dodge.
The man was knocked unconscious with just two attacks.
Sam diverted the two energy bubbles carrying the poisonous gas into the divine dimension fragment he got from the old man. The dark elemental energy divine dimension fragment and let them go.
The poison leaked out, but in that vast expanse, it doesn"t really matter.
The battle was over quicker than they thought.
Sam was really impressed by how strong Giyon is, she managed to deal with an opponent on the same level with just two blows. Of course, if she had to worry about the poison too, she might have needed to take a few more blows, but it is still pretty impressive.
Giyon walked to the guy and coldly twisted her neck hard enough to kill him.
"Who is this guy?"
"Mari Clan"s Slave."
"The Slaves to Death?"
"Yes, he is part of them. I think we can get the required information from his memories."
Sam said as he gestured to Specter to deal with him.
Meanwhile, Grivon is looking at the whole situation in utter shock. He didn"t expect that someone would dare to come into the Gaja Clan territory to attack Sam.
He never expected this, he felt pretty safe inside after all.
But he also felt relieved that things went the way they went, but he is now a bit troubled about what would have happened, if he was alone when the people attacked.
As he was thinking, Sam finished extracting the memories and digested them. When he was done in a few seconds, he finally understood what the matter was.
"Sivan sent him, even though he is here to kill me, it is definitely not what Sivan believed."
"What do you mean?"
"There is this Mari Clan custom which many people don"t know. The Slaves to Death are a particular group of people that are enslaved for generations. They would marry, give birth, but even the newborn would be the slaves and they also need to serve the clan till their death.
But there is an opportunity for them to be freed from their slave status, if one of the direct descendant of the Mari Clan, like their young masters, fathers a child with one of the female servants of a family line within the Slaves of Death groups, the whole family line would be freed from their slavery.
Of course, that child wouldn"t get official status and the woman wouldn"t become his concubine or something, but she would become a normal subordinate in that young master"s household, something like a maid and that child would have freedom to go out of the clan and pursue his own life.
This man has a daughter and Sivan enticed him with the offer that he would father the child with his daughter, in fact the offer is more than that, he actually bargained with the genes of my body."
"What do you mean by bargaining with the genes of your body? What difference does it make?"
"What difference? It makes a huge difference actually. My body is a work of art in itself. It is a perfect fusion of human, beasts and vampire genetics. Even I was tempted to see what would come of the person that I gave birth to.
So, Sivan said that not only would he father a child with this old man"s daughter, he even promised to nurture that child and send him out when he reached the Astral Plane cultivation along with the mother to live their lives freely.
Now, this is the result.
This guy didn"t even bother to think twice before coming here and killing himself like this."
"This guy might not know what the consequences would be and how this goes, but Sivan should know that it is impossible to come here and do this, then why did he send him like this?"
Grivon asked as he was genuinely perplexed.
As they were standing there and talking, the guards came and decided to clean up the mess. Sam took off the spatial rings and let the guards take care of the body.
The poisons inside the storage might come in handy.
Giyon called the Clan"s investigation and enforcement departments.
"Someone from Mari Clan not only managed to come past the gates, but they also made their way to my personal residence, I don"t know what kind of work you are doing to let such a blunder get by, but if I don"t receive a proper explanation by tomorrow, I wouldn"t bother this case anymore.
Because, my father is coming and he would take care of it."
The expressions of the people became horrified as soon as they heard it. Their faces paled and they couldn"t help but imagine the scenarios of what they would have to face if Giyon"s father really took over the case.
They immediately left and the word that Giyon"s father is coming and a day before that Giyon was attacked, made everyone in the clan become excited. They knew that they were in for some really good shows.
After sorting the mess out and deactivating all the formations, Sam went to the bas.e.m.e.nt lab to get back to his research.
This attack actually happened at a great time. He is already thinking of using toxins to test the effects on these weird creatures, and now he has a storage of an expert in poisons. This cannot be anymore timely.
He started fishing through the whole thing.
There are not many spirit stones, but there are many many gla.s.s vials as well as those weird fruits that acted like some poison grenades, the darts and so on.
The gla.s.s vials and gla.s.s containers, stored more than a thousand different toxins and along with the base toxins there are some mixed toxins.
Apart from that, there are some scrolls and books written by the man himself about different toxins and poisons and the notes regarding his experimentation with the toxins on various beasts and creatures with natural toxin resistance.
Sam is really impressed by what he saw.
He couldn"t help but feel a sense of admiration for the guy. The slaves normally don"t fight the battles, they act as guards for the young masters when they didn"t awaken and the guard duty is only bound to the clan grounds.
Sam couldn"t help but feel sorry for the oldman to die in such a way. He has been serving Mari Clan for the best of his abilities and he even contributed to them so much with his expertise which helped them kill so many people, but he without much battle experience arrived at the Gaja Clan without any backup or a plan for that matter and died unjustly like this.
A talented person just left the world. That is really a shame.
But apart from that faint pity, Sam also felt something else, confusion.
