Sam didn"t want to bother with this Flavos guy at all, but it turned out that he has to. Because no one is daring to take care of this situation and the movement of the Union sect became heated.


They are moving their troops on a large scale and the attack on the Nagin Castle"s resource points and bases intensified. In the main castle, there are only three squads and around three hundred individual members left.


The four remaining special commanders are moving to different locations or already there as he spoke to the Mov Empire"s normal commander who is in charge of the defense at the main base.


"What made them go on to this situation?" Sam asked calmly.


"It is good that you asked. You are half of the reason."


"Me? I am not even here yesterday."


"Who is talking about Yesterday? It is your continuous attacks. You killed four hundred of the enemy troops and did that so fast and one-sided that they got so p.i.s.sed and they are now taking out on all of us."


Sam chuckled at the response.


"Do you think this is funny? You put the whole castle in jeopardy because you are too focused on your personal gain and glory."


"Glory? For what? Playing house with you guys. You can keep it all to yourself. Do you think I am like the rest of you? Don"t just judge me with your personal standards. Because mine are way out of your league."


"If not for glory then what are you here for?"


"That is way above your pay-grade."


Sam left the room after saying those words. Chatur followed him and asked with worry.


"What are we going to do? They will put all the blame on us."


"Us?" Sam asked with a smile.


"Even though my contribution is minimal, I am already in the same boat as you. So, it is "us" and both of us can"t change it."


"Well, you are right about that. But they can"t do anything to us. I am the one who made sure that there wouldn"t be any more attacks immediately. The sect did send the troops, but they didn"t attack. Because they are confused. The person in charge didn"t dare to make rash moves.


Because, even if they really did get the information about me doing all I did, they would more cautious than enraged. A single variable being that big of trouble. A smart person wouldn"t want to do anything rash until they figured out a way to eliminate or isolate that variable.


Something else triggered all this mess. Something happened when we are away and the mess is way too big than we want it to be.


How about trying to get some information. There is still three days to the Volcanic Cannon. We will wait here until now, you try to gather as much info as you can and we decide how to proceed. Until then there is no need to make a move in this war. Let them clash all they want.


Chatur complied and left. Sam doesn"t know how he gets his things done, but he does get his things done and that too in an efficient way.


Sam stayed two days in the Castle, but all he did is try to create his new gadget c.u.m garment he is making with the Blood mutant scales. Even though its quality wouldn"t be anywhere near as the feather-coat or the harbinger, this takes a lot of time, due to the features he is going to place on that thing.


He worked in the divine dimension and roamed around as he tasted some beasts nearby to see if he can get any new additions to his farm or even new additions to his army.


And he did find some options, like the rabbit-type beasts nearby, except each rabbit is of the same size as a normal deer and there is a chance that it could grow even more. He caught some and threw it into the form and let Ape take care of them.


He spent his time like that for the next two days and Chatur came back with the information. But it is not complete. Because they couldn"t find the exact trigger that leads to this situation in a single day.


But they do know how big the mess is. Every place is a deadlock. Every resource point, weekly or monthly, and even the random resource points. Everything was marked and targeted including the bases. Some of the bases are already taken out.


This is too much damage and the situation is worse than he thought.


While he is thinking about where to start to make his move, another person from Mov empire came running to him.


"I am here bearing the message from the Emperor." He didn"t even bother to introduce himself as he showed a scroll. The same one he got every time he got a message from the palace.


He took the scroll and read it right there and when he saw the contents he couldn"t help but feel frustrated.


Chatur who is standing beside him was extremely curious and tried his best to take a peek through his peripheral vision.


"Don"t try so hard. You can read it directly." Sam said and pa.s.sed it to him before looking at the messenger.


"Tell them, I will take it. But make sure you mention one thing. He owes me for this separately."


"Are you sure you want me to deliver such an impudent message to the Emperor?" The messenger asked coldly.


"Why? You got a problem doing your duty? I am already p.i.s.sed by that message, you better not provoke me now and I am pretty sure that the emperor wouldn"t mind some collateral damage in exchange for the part of his debt he will owe me."


With that, he didn"t even bother and said to Chatur.


"Is the information you gave me is the only information you have on that spot? Did you leave any minor details?"


"No. But are you sure you want to do this? I know you can make a great amount of damage with the guns, but this squad is completely different.


This is the Elite Canine squad we are talking about and their top fifteen are something to be wary of. They wouldn"t certainly be easy victims of the guns. They are elites of the elites."


"But what can I do? That Flavos special commander happened to be an imperial family member. The Emperor of Flavos is his uncle and do you know what that makes him?"


"He is also a nephew of the Mov Empress, who is the sister of the Flavos emperor."


"And you have seen the message, we have to save him right away. If he dies, the consequences are something Mov cannot handle and that would disrupt my expansion plans.


Why don"t you take out everything you have about that resource point?"


This is the third weekly resource point Sam wanted to take back from the sect and this flavos guy beat him to it, but the sect pulled one over this guy and surrounded the resource point with their troops. If not for the fact, they came after Nagin Castle sent the reinforcement to secure the castle, the troops would have dealt with them easily.


Now, they are using the terrain that was at least giving them the advantage to keep themselves alive.


And Sam doesn"t know how these guys held up for three days against the elite squad when they lost around sixty to seventy people against the squad that stood defense.


If the squad is really as elite as he heard them be, then there shouldn"t be any form of a problem to wipe the floor with them.


He felt like he is missing something. But he couldn"t pinpoint it. But he doesn"t have time to think of it and started his journey.


The next resource point is a small hill and has a flat peak with a tree on it.


The tree gives a fruit every week and it is kind of weird because every time, the fruit differs. Sometimes, it is water, sometimes it is fire and sometimes it is lightning. The element changes and it doesn"t aid in cultivation. It increases the energy control and efficiency of the techniques.


For all its worth, the fruit is useful for everyone and anyone who uses spiritual energy.


But the hill is full of trees and caves and holes all over it and they can hide properly and easily. The only problem is that now the hill is completely surrounded.


From all the sides.


They traveled for four hours and reached there by the late afternoon. But he didn"t reach the place directly, they took a high vantage point and looked over.


From the side he could see, there are tents all over, and at that exact moment, a few groups are returning from the hill. They have various beast mounts. All of them are canines and they are foxes, wolves, bears, hyenas, etc.


But what surprised him is the things that these mounts are dragging down with them.


They are corpses. Corpses of the Nagin castle members.
