Chapter 1415 - Attack
Two days later.
Back in the Gaja Clan"s headquarters.
Sam and Gail are sitting at the dining table of Giyon"s residence as they are having some soup. Both of them are enjoying it from their expressions and Sam is looking at a letter at the same time.
"How are things with them?" Gail asked as he called the attendant for another serving.
"They are doing great. Grivon worked faster than I thought. That gambler kid got hooked and lost all of his property. Now the news will definitely go to the headquarters fast enough and they will be trying to get the property back.
Finally, creating a direct clash. If everything escalates as well as I thought, within two weeks everything will be done. Grivon and Giyon wouldn"t need to be there after that."
"That is great. I came here to spend time with them. It would be great if they come back earlier."
"Don"t worry they will be here."
After they were done with the soup, Sam went to the lab and started listing down things. Some recipes for the tangerines and some other solutions for the resources that Grivon recently got.
He finished up everything and sent the letter back.
After that was done, he took out some sheets of paper and started checking their contents. They are the tests for the kids.
That is the only relaxation he could afford at that moment.
While Grivon and Giyon are struggling far away, Sam is not exactly having a good time even though he stayed within the Gaja clan quarters.
Because the chaos he wanted to stir up started coming at him.
The first and most annoying problem is a group of young masters. After he made the members of the special squad let out of the businesses they had in their hands, for some reason, someone spread the news about this and many young masters who are Grivon"s peers are trying to get a piece of it.
And the fact that the twenty or so sets of properties are not exactly based on the same property, so Sam had to plan properly and use the subordinates of Grivon to make sure that not a single thing falls into the hands of others.
As if that is not enough, Sam started noticing some strange movements within the city once again.
For now he is sure that the head of the clan is still not using his power to deal with Sam. He is really too wary of Gail, Gamin, and Yuvana. This is helpful to Sam, as he had one less thing to worry about.
And another peculiar thing is that MIngiv and his father are completely quiet in the past few days. Sam doesn"t know why, but they didn"t bother him with anything. The treatment method for Malgav was also not asked which made Sam a bit surprised.
So, he took this gap seriously and became productive with the toxins. He even gave the toxin formulae to the people in the stray dimension to create as much as they can.
He also designed the special poison arrows that operate on Poison vapor and some that operate with the poisonous liquid injection into the body.
He went to work on them again after he was done sending all the letters and finished checking what kids had done with their tests.
As he was busy working the whole day, he got an attendant that came running to him into the lab while panting.
"Sir, Sam. A property of young master Grivon…"
"What?" Sam asked with a frown."
"Some weird creatures are coming out of the property of the young master Grivon. We don"t know what they are. They looked like humans, but not completely. They are like savages. We cannot control them.
The elemental attacks are not working and the physical attacks are too hard to reach.
Sam frowned and hurriedly stood up. He took out a recording crystal and showed the recorded video. Inside there is an image of the weird creatures when he was doing research on them.
"Did they look like this?"
The attendant took a look and his eyes widened in shock.
"Yes, they are just like that."
"f.u.c.k."
Sam cursed out loud.
"What is their cultivation level? You don"t have to be precise, just give me something based on your feeling."
"They look like they are of your cultivation level, sir. The Late-stage Transcendence of Astral Plane.
I cannot say that is their exact cultivation level, but the aura they are giving out is at that level. They came digging up from under the house and started attacking all the attendants and servants in the house.
Along with that, they started attacking civilians too. The city guard came in time and used the formations to keep them in, but the formations are not holding that well.
We just found the time to inform you and the clan leader. We need to clear this up immediately otherwise there are going to be a lot of casualties."
"Did anyone from the clan come? Other than the city guard?"
"No, Sir. Someone just went to inform the clan leader to get his permission"
"Alright, lead the way."
Sam said while he made some calls to the subordinates on the way. They moved at full speed.
By the time he reached the area, the subordinates he called for also arrived. One of them even came from the stray realm and he brought the arrows and vials that could be helpful with these creatures.
When Sam looked at the situation, he was dumbfounded for a moment.
The whole house was already destroyed. There are some walls here and there standing creating a look of ruins.
The compound is fully infested with these creatures and there are holes on the ground indicating their arrival from the underground.
n.o.body knows how did they come here and even Sam doesn"t, but he knew some answers that others don"t.
It is the answer to the question of who sent them here.
He looked around and noticed that there are not many people gathered here. The city guard used a blocking formation to make sure these things didn"t come out.
Sam walked forward and called for one of the trusted subordinates of Grivon. He gave some instructions.
The subordinates went and talked to the city guard and the guards stepped down a bit, but still held the formation.
Sam walked into the formation along with the subordinates as they looked at over a hundred creatures.
He doesn"t have hundred people at his disposal that could deal with all these creatures and they are very strong, to begin with. So, he immediately gave orders.
"Don"t rely on elemental attacks to deal blows to them. It wouldn"t work. Try to attack physically and use the poison vials. Be generous with them and don"t think of using them tactically when you are surrounded.
From what I know, the side of the neck is actually a good weak point, apart from that, go for the limbs. If you take down the joints, it is hard, even for them to live."
"Yes, Sir."
Sam continued.
"Wear the special communication device. I will be speaking to all of you, follow my orders to the teeth and I will try my best to be safe.
One thing is for sure. Not a single one of them should be able to get out of this place. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Sir."
"Good, get ready."
As they stepped forward, the creatures already noticed them and they started charging.
Sam extended his left hand as he aimed it straight at the group. The five-finger cannons and the central cannon of the arm were fully charged.
*BOOM*
The energy beams were shot and they were aimed at the six creatures that are at the lead of the attack.
*BOOm* *BOOM* *BOOM*
The explosions happened simultaneously and made large holes in the bodies of the creatures. They collapsed immediately and Sam changed the energy cell.
But by now, they are too near to have energy explosions happen. So, Sam took out his staff and led the charge.
Currently, he only has thirty subordinates and he didn"t want the city guards to directly get involved in this.
Within these thirty people, there are five archers that are at the edge of the encirclement as they got ready to shoot the poisonous arrows at the creatures on Sam"s command.
The battle started.
Every single of them is charged by multiple creatures at the same time.
Sam slammed the staff on one of the creature"s shoulders and kicked it in the inner thigh right at the knee joint, making it fall. He pulled the staff back, gathered the energy, and slammed it on the side of the neck.
The energy exploded there a bit as the neck was burst open making the blood splatter all over the place.
The creature collapsed like a rag doll.
"Twenty-two, dodge to the right on my count of three. Archer 1, aim straight at twenty-two"s current position and shoot when I say so."
Sam spoke into the communication device as he held the creature coming at him in a headlock.
"3, 2, 1. Shoot."
*CRACK*
He broke the neck of the creature using the ripple style and twisted it off, while the soldier dodged to the right even though he is the middle of a battle.. The arrow went to the position he was standing in and went past it before it went into a hole in the ground.
