Chapter 1004: Three brothers
Chapter 1004: Three brothers
The four of them looked back and immediately got cautious.
“Don’t worry. I am going to do anything for you. I am Vidyut. I believe I am the one you are here to meet.”
Vidyut looked at them and smiled as he stopped clapping.
Sam heaved a sigh and relaxed a bit. He started observing the surroundings. The mountain mansion has a large front yard, which is also a great place for training.
Then he looked at Vidyut who is standing in front of them with energy vision. But he was shocked when he saw the result because he couldn’t guess the cultivation level of Vidyut and the energy flow he observed is showing something that should not be possible normally.
Sam’s brain is running at an insane speed that he forgot about his surroundings for a few minutes, he kept on thinking about the possibilities of what he saw really happening.
Another thing that shouldn’t have been possible in normal circumstances, but still happened in front of him, he doesn’t even know how to feel at this moment.
As he was lost in a daze,
“Boss, Boss. Are you sleeping with your eyes open?” Sam looked around and found himself in the middle of a room sitting in front of Vidyut.
He shook himself out of the daze and looked at Saber Monarch.
“What do you mean, sleeping with my eyes open? Do you want your salary gone?” Sam reprimanded the saber Monarch just for the sake of it and sighed. He didn’t even realize that he was walking in and sat down. He was shocked by what he saw.
He took a sip of the wine on the table and looked at Vidyut.
“Your subordinates are saying that you have some business with me?” Vidyut asked Sam.
“I actually wanted to recruit you into my team,” Sam said as he took another sip.
“Team? What kind of team are we talking about?”
“A team of strong people. I have to do some things across the realms and I need some strong people to makes things easier for me. So, I am currently recruiting strong people. I came here to do the same with you.”
“Well…” Vidyut was about to say something, but Sam spoke once again.
“I know, it is not exactly possible.”
All three of them in the room were shocked, although for different reasons.
Looking at Vidyut’s expression, he said.
“I know it might not be possible for you to leave this mountain. Don’t worry about explaining the situation to me.”
“Why would you come to such a conclusion?”
“You are somehow linked to this mountain. You cannot leave this place”
The atmosphere in the room turned awkward and suddenly…
“Hahahahahaha…” Vidyut started laughing.
“My guess is right. You are the only one that could help me out of here.” Saber Monarch and Paras are getting surprised.
“I am sorry. I never even saw a situation like this. I don’t know how to get your out of this situation. I don’t even know how this is possible.”
Sam replied with a sigh. He is extremely curious about how this guy is linked to the mountain. Because when he used energy vision, he saw the energy flow of the mountain is somehow connected to this guy. He is not even doing it voluntarily. It is just happening like that naturally.
It is as if the whole mountain and Vidyut are one single entity and even when he is moving around it is still happening.”
Vidyut heaved a helpless sigh and said.
“Saber Monarch. I heard you were trapped in a maze for a year. How did you get out?”
“My boss got me out, of course.”
Vidyut then turned towards Sam and said.
“Then you are the only one that could release me too.”
“Why are you so sure?”
“Because the people who made the Saber Monarch get trapped in the Maze are the same ones that made me trapped like this?”
Saber Monarch was shocked and said.
“You have a rivalry with those families too?”
“Not really, I am talking about the one that made the Maze formation.”
Sam finally had a look of interest. As much as he was curious when he saw the link between Vidyut and the mountain, he felt exhausted too.
By now, he is sure that there is something fishy going on with his journey. Every person he wanted to recruit has something going on with him. They had a severe problem that can only be solved by Sam at that moment.
It is as if they deliberately had a problem just for him to solve and then recruit them as repayment.
As much as he would like to believe it is just a coincidence or even lucky. There is no way in the hell it is. He is suddenly feeling like he is a puppet on the string.
Even though all of his actions are done on his own and even his mentality and character changed a lot over the years, he has a feeling that the whole path he took was designed by someone else. It is as if he is a rat running through a maze and clearing it, but the whole path he took was laced with bait so that I won’t take any wrong turns.
This is pretty frustrating. So, he decided to just let this guy go and think of other ways to do things.
But this time the bait is a bit too strong for him to just leave it be.
The person who made the maze is someone Sam is determined to meet and any link to that person is something worth knowing.
“Do you know who did it?” Sam asked.
“Yes, I don’t exactly where they are from. But those three seemed to be fellow disciples of the same master. I pissed them off and one of them beat the crap out of me and locked me in this mountain with a formation.
When he was imprisoning me, he was having a conversation with one of his fellow disciples. It is regarding the maze.
The second brother amongst them is the one that made the maze and he said something about it being the final stages and he needs to find a proper location to place it.
After a few years, I heard that a person named Saber Monarch pissed off a bunch of families in a realm and they all used the formation called Maze to lock you up.
I made some inquiries with the help of the people here and I managed to get more information which made him believe that the maze the Saber Monarch was imprisoned is definitely the same maze that those brothers were discussing.
When I heard that someone managed to free Saber Monarch, I was expectant. But I don’t know your details, so I could only stop. When I saw the Saber Monarch on the mountain path, I suspected you are the one, but only now can I confirm this. Please help me get out of this. I will do whatever you want me to do.”
Sam looked at the man in front of him who is currently bowing. He sighed.
“Let me try. But I want to know all the details regarding the three brothers. Whatever you know, no matter how small, you must tell me everything.”
“I will.”
“And since you are present when the formation was set up, just tell me what they did throughout the process, then I will be able to find a way easily and my work will reduce.”
Then started the discussion. The whole mountain is a formation and that guy used some kind of cylindrical objects to lay the formation down.
Vidyut was only present for the latter half of the process so he could only explain that. And finally, there is something that Vidyut showed Sam that made him feel rather intrigued and excited.
On Vidyut’s chest, there is something stabbed in. It almost looked like the miniature arc reactor from the Iron man movies he watched.
It has a lot of lightning energy in it and it is the one connecting the energy flow of the mountain to Vidyut.
“Every time, I tried to remove it, I feel an excruciating pain that makes me feel like I am about to die.”
“If you did pull it out. Then you would have really died.”
Sam said and used observation ability as he observed how this thing works. When he closely looked at the structure of this object, he was actually shocked and then became excited.
This time, the bait is not just something that he could ignore. And that too the bait is for something that would benefit him, even if the bait is for something that would screw him over, he would definitely take it.
At first, he was determined to find the guy who created the Maze, but now if he was given a choice between the maze guy or this mountain guy, he would meet the guy that made this mountain formation without a second thought.
