Chapter 1159: Hexagram Summon
Chapter 1159: Hexagram Summon
Sam not only destroyed the flesh puppets of the surveillance, but he also burned the wildlife around him and also flattened the land without any rocks or protrusions.
Within a radius of five hundred meters around the lake was completely charred flat land not even a blade of grass was left. He didn’t want to leave any method for the other party to do a check on him, so he left a bunch of small bird puppets that could destroy any flesh puppet that came here burning them to the crisp.
After he was done with everything here, Sam felt relieved. It is really not a good feeling when someone else is looking at him like this. He can be at ease for now.
After that, he went back to the ice divine dimension to meet with Markan.
This time the Black Ghosts are involved. But Markan didn’t even hesitate to kill them. In fact, his attacks were mainly focused on the Black Ghost members as if he had enmity with them for the past three lifetimes.
When he went back in, he saw Markan checking out the corpses of the Black ghost members which they brought back.
He already stripped them naked and even checked their spatial rings.
When he saw Sam coming there he gave out a bitter smile and greeted.
“What is the current situation?”
“I set up a perimeter with traps, if anyone enters it we would know, I also destroyed the surveillance system the other established. So, for now, we are completely safe. We don’t have to worry about the current situation that much.”
“Well, is it possible for you to talk in private? I guess you have a lot of questions to ask.”
“Of course, I do.”
Both of them walked a bit away and Sam asked.
“So, why did you kill them like that?”
“They are the members of the faction led by my rival. These people are not regular members of the Black Ghosts. They are direct descendants of the higher authorities and were part of a faction that was opposing me.” He paused for a moment and before Sam could ask other questions, he continued.
“As I told you before, the grand elders take care of the appointment of the leaders and the leader of the organization would take care of the administrative and financial matters. The forces under the grand elders only interfere when the administrative members of the organization need to be investigated or punished.
Apart from that, the grand elders are also responsible for training the normal members of the organization. The members are created by collecting orphans when they were children and nurturing them to be a follower of the organization with cult-like mentality.
We are mostly an information organization and the administrative officials of the organization also do mediations.
Currently, the link between the Golem sect and the Puppet organization is clearly created by these administrative officials.
The administrative officials are nothing but the descendants of the founder of the Black Ghost organization. His many sons formed different branches and the descendants grew increasingly with time.
Most of them die in the power struggle balancing the overpopulation so that there wouldn’t be too many people holding the administrative power.
As for the regular members trained from a young age by grand elders, they wouldn’t be able to interfere in the administrative matters and they would only be able to do so if a certain official gave them some temporary access.
They would be promoted to the enforcement team under grand elders and with enough development and promotion, they would ascend to become grand elders.
They don’t participate in the power struggles and once they do by any chance, they wouldn’t be able to get promoted and had to spend the rest of their life as ordinary regular member.
And even in administrative factions, there are certain powers distributed over certain factions and they are the only ones in charge of these certain organizations. And the golem sect and five great sects fall under the branch of my opposition.”
Markan went on with a long explanation. Sam heard it clearly and just nodded.
“So, how much involvement do you think the Black Ghosts will have?”
“Normally, they wouldn’t have even sent these people here, they would have just mediated between two parties and would have separated themselves from the actual situation, but it seems like the rules have changed in my absence.”
Sam thought for a moment.
“Or, they might have been sent here to look for you. After all, I believe with the information network of the Black Ghosts, they might have already known that I took the help of prisoners and I don’t think they would be unaware of your imprisonment here.
After all, someone is bound to know about your facial change and the new identity they gave you.”
Markan was surprised for a second. This is such simple logic, but he failed to connect the dots. He shook his head and remained silent.
“Okay, if they involve too much at the moment, it would be troublesome. So, I need to find a way to deal with this instantly. Do you have any methods to deter the black ghosts, even if they are not completely gone, I need something that would make them think before they make a move?”
Markan thought for a moment and said.
“I do have a way, but my presence will be revealed if I did so.”
“It doesn’t matter if your presence is revealed because after this branch is done we are going to a completely different realm and it would be nowhere near this place.”
“Then this would be feasible. I would like some elemental energy stones.”
Sam nodded and gave him a spatial ring with the six energies Markan can use.
Markan came out of the lake and Sam sent him past the traps with the help of a puppet. There in the charred land, he started setting up a formation.
He is setting up by digging pits and filling them with elemental energy stones to the brim.
This is one of the crudest techniques of the formation and this could be easily found out.
But Sam didn’t interrupt and just watched him place the formation. After a few minutes, he was done and stood in the center of it and activated the formation.
All of a sudden the glowing elemental energy manifested and gathered together to form a large beam and gathered into the sky.
After it was done, a large explosion occurred in the sky and six bright colors of various elements created a hexagonal star in the sky.
It was bright and eyecatching clearly revealing their location. But Sam didn’t care much and just waited for the results.
Markan and Sam waited there.
Meanwhile, back in the city, the large star that appeared in the sky caught everyone’s attention and every soldier on duty looked at in awe. The Black Ghost members who are involved in the war are also notified of this, they widened their eyes in disbelief.
They are still with the golem sect and puppet organization members.
“Damn it, it is the hexagram summon.” The Black Ghost member cursed as he looked in the sky. The large start stayed there for good five minutes before it took another ten minutes to slowly dissipate.
The Puppet organization members and the golem sect members are obviously confused. But the Black Ghosts didn’t bother explaining anything to them.
They immediately ran out of the area and then towards the city gate. They ran towards Markan’s location.
While they were on the way, they saw several men and women running out of the city as well.
The guards don’t know what to do and when they consulted the puppet organization higher-ups they were ordered to let them go. The order was directly given by the branch leader.
He doesn’t know what exactly happened, but he knew very well that the situation is seriously based on the action of Black Ghosts and when he heard the reports of how many people are running out along with these black ghosts, from the mercenary groups they hired, from the refugee area of their city and even some disciples of organization, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of dread.
The Golem sect members are discussing something between themselves, it seems like they have a faint idea of what is happening.
Soon, the black ghost members reached the location and stood in front of Markan and Sam.
Markan looked at them and said solemnly.
“As the core administrator of the Black Ghosts, the owner of a Hexagram Insignia, with my power authority, I command you to get out of the puppet organization and leave this city. Nobody is to help the puppet organization and the information from here shall not be sent back to the headquarters unless it was approved or demanded by another one on the same level as me or someone superior.
And if the information was asked by such personnel, tell them that Markan has returned and for the next fifteen days, the influence of Black Ghosts shall not act in the third puppet realm when the matter is related to the puppet organization. Understood?”
“Yes, Sir.”
The Black ghost members replied in unison.
