Sam and Chatur went to the stream and the latter looked at the color of the water and the river bed.
The stream has to go through the forest and cross the Minatour"s base camp and enter the town and it flows across the town to the rear and enters the forest once again.
Chatur took out his brush and changed his appearance and entered the water with the recording crystal. But when someone looks normally, they wouldn"t be able to find out anything different. They will not think that a person is swimming in the water.
The flow of the stream is not that turbulent and it is flowing towards the town, which made it easier for them.
Chatur swam past the Minotaur base camp and soon reached the barred entrance under the city wall of the town.
There is something wrong with the metal rods as they are extremely strong and even a normal Pre-transcendent couldn"t damage them.
But there is a small opening between the bars and Chatur placed his brush inside and created a fish that is completely made out of water. He changed the color of the fish with some added paint and turned it into bright glowing red and placed the recording crystal inside.
The fish then swam into the town.
Chatur came back to their hiding location in the forest.
At the same time, the fish swam deep into the town and entered the fields of the town. The plantation of the town was made around this stream and they even made some small streams for the fields to provide necessary irrigation.
Due to this, they not only grow wheat and corn, they even have some paddy fields within the town which require more water than normal.
As the redfish entered the stream and the plantation, it slowly started losing its speed as the spiritual energy chatur injected could only support it for so long. But right before it disappeared, a human who is walking by towards his field looked at the red glowing and moving object and picked it up to take a look.
Even though it looked like fish, it was only made like that, so it can swim easily.
When the farmer picked it up, the fish turned into a liquid and slipped past his finger leaving a recording crystal in his hands.
He looked at the peculiar crystal in his hands. He has never seen a recording crystal before. At first, he tried to probe with the spiritual sense.
After sensing that there is no danger, he immediately injected some spiritual energy.
A holographic image appeared and he saw five-six humans standing together with a lot of minotaur"s corpses laying around them along with the Fire-type minotaur kneeling beside the young man in black.
"I am Sam. I am trying to use this recording crystal to send a message to dwarves.
We are traveling humans and we wanted to be integrated with the dwarven community and escaped from the forests we lived in. We reached Prana village a few days ago and on that very day, the Minotaur sacked the village by killing the dwarves and enslaving the humans.
Currently, the surrounding twenty villages were all completely sacked and your town was cut off from all the routes and blocked off from any external aid as each village is being guarded by Nascent stage Minotaurs.
Currently, we are in the forest behind the Minotaur camp outside your city wall.
They are planning to drag out the battle so that you would exhaust the resources.
We are six Late-stage Nascent cultivators and we would like to work together and be of service to you in any way to fend off the minotaur troops.
If you want to contact us, just leave the message at the metal bar blockade of the stream and the city wall and we would be able to find a way to reach it.
I hope you make a decision quickly."
After that, he even gave instructions on how to erase the existing video and record a new one.
In the whole video, Sam is the only one who spoke.
The farmer was stunned for a second and immediately ran towards the field supervisor. Generally, there are very few humans who have their own lands, most of the fields belong to the dwarven authorities and they will rent the lands to the farmers.
The farmers cultivate it and give part of the wheat as rent and keep the rest or exchange it for something else.
Most of the trading system in this world is based on barter.
Anyway, the farmer immediately ran to the dwarf who is in charge of the fields and when he saw the video, he ran to the superiors and soon the video reached the upper echelons of the town.
The town lord looked at the video and asked the commander of the troops.
"What should we do? Can we trust them?"
"I couldn"t decide. The dead bodies are real and I know that red minotaur. He is a prodigy of the lower cla.s.s in the Minotaurs. He leads a squad of Nascent stage Minotaurs. He is good at the battle and our dwarven brothers collided with him many times, but he was still able to survive.
Since even he was kneeling on the ground, the group must be capable. But I don"t know if we can trust them. After all, they didn"t know what they want in exchange."
The commander replied.
"Then how about we reply to him first and ask what exactly he wants?"
"We could do that then."
Chatur is going through the stream for every hour to check if the message was replied and only on his third attempt did he find the recording crystal.
He immediately caught hold of it and brought it back. But when he was returning, he saw that some Minotaurs are looking at the stream and talking something. They couldn"t see him, so he decided to stop in their vicinity and listen to what they have to say.
And when he listened to the news, he was dumbfounded and couldn"t wait for these two ox heads to go away so that he could rush back in full speed. He even had to bear with their urine.
After leaving the place, he immediately informed Sam.
Sam also felt extremely surprised and recorded another video. Chatur used the same way to send the video back, but this time, as soon as the redfish appeared in the stream on the other side of the wall, a dwarf picked it up and took the recording crystal back to the commander.
It is once again Sam in the recording.
"We received your message and what we really want is to try to make a living in a comfortable place. We have our skills in cooking and farming and forging. But with our current state, we couldn"t find a place to stay and live.
We just want to have a peaceful life and residence under the protection of your dwarven laws.
But there is a much more important thing I have to tell you and that is the Minotaurs are trying to mix some chemical in the stream. We don"t know where they got it, and what exactly that liquid is, but the constant mixture will lead your crops to die.
So, please make your decision as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be too late."
The commander frowned when he heard the second message. He has his suspicions. After all, this might Sam trying to make them desperate, but he cannot take this lightly.
Normally, even if they couldn"t fend off these Minotaurs, as long as they could maintain the status quo they would be able to survive for a while as the fields will still give medium-level crops. They might not improve and their weapon supplies might run dry a bit.
But they will definitely be able to survive for some time. If the crops are gone, they would be done for. He went to the town lord and discussed the issue and made a decision.
Chatur once again got the message back and this time, there is a request.
They want the group to distract the Minotaurs.
And if possible, they wanted the group to make the Minatour"s lose all concentration on the wall for a few minutes and make the troops move back as much as possible.
If it was done, then they will try to send some troops to meet the minotaurs for a direct clash.
Sam understood their intention.
The main problem currently is, even if the dwarven warriors are strong, they don"t have a way to meet these minotaurs to meet directly in the field.
There is only one entrance and if they tried to come out from it when the Minotaurs are fully concentrating on them, then there is a high chance that the Minotaurs could use the narrow entrance to their advantage and cause serious damage and at the same time enter the town.
So, to go against that, they have to reduce the concentration of Minotaurs in the front, then the dwarven warriors will come out and the archers from the top will be able to provide cover.
With his combination, they would be able to gain an advantage.
Sam and the group immediately started the discussion and wanted to execute their plan by the evening.
