Chapter 1193: Forces Reached
The Core disciple lady looked at the elder and said.
“I am going to the Mountain City. I will take care of this situation.”
“We are still not sure that the narrative is true.”
“Whether it is true or not. I would be doing the job of a sect member, don’t I? Anyway, these guys are not playing the hidden game anymore. They openly sacked our city, so I can retaliate.”
“But…”
“I am not asking your permission elder. I am telling you about this.”
“Then, let me come with you.”
“I am sorry, you need to be in the farm town to manage the aftermath. It is still not stable yet. We need to keep our existing farmers and also attract some new ones. You are not coming with me.”
With that, she came out and took her personal guards. All of them moved on some bird-type beasts as they made their way towards the Rear city which is nearest to them.
Meanwhile, back in the Fiend tribe headquarters.
The meeting was about to end.
An old man stood up as he tapped his back as if he is suffering from some back pain and said.
“I am going to send my son to bring that girl back. She has suffered too much over the years due to our silence and voluntary ignorance of her situation. I will not do that anymore. Those youngsters whoever they are did a great favor for the tribe. With this we will not only save her and bring her back, I would also bring that abomination and if possible the father of that abomination to erase the shame that was brought upon us.”
“Elder 9. You should know better than doing this. It would be a waste of resources if something untoward happens. We are on a war with the Myriad beast sect.”
“Really, Elder 6? How is Flower city doing? I remember that a few years, your son who was put in charge of the city got conned by the Myriad Beast sect and lost the city. He was taken, hostage.
This woman, this girl who you are considering the waste of resources went there and killed three hundred and twenty people that day and out of them, forty-five people belong to the Myriad Beast sect.
She gave you back the Flower city even though she absolutely deserved it. Your son lost a year’s worth of produce.
That was one of the reasons why the Myriad beast sect laid down a plan like that and made her into this. You are part of the reason she is suffering now.
And all you can see in this situation is your and your son’s fragile ego is extremely hurt and broken and you believe that if she disappeared everything would be okay. Your nefarious heart would be satisfied.
Isn’t that right?”
The meeting room turned silent and the old man left silently.
The rest of them didn’t know what to say.
But that day, a large group left the Fiend tribe’s headquarters and they directly went to the Front city Openly.
From the size, one could easily say that they are surely invading the city and from the looks of it they might even take it down directly.
Sam doesn’t know that his actions made two large groups come to the two cities at both sides of the mountain city.
If he knew, he would be cheering himself right now. But at this moment, Sam is currently looking at the situation of the forces that were sent by the Front city towards the mountain city.
This time, Noah’s trap worked perfectly and she is a bit less grumpy. A beast was locked by the vines as it rapidly devoured its blood and vitality and as every person with common sense knows, the fire element is the only thing that would make the wood element easily nullified and they used it to burn the vine and the beast down to stop the spread of the vine.
But to their dismay, the vine grew stronger and the fire on this vine triggered the rest of the vines to attack at the same time killing a lot of them.
The people that escaped had to make a camp right next to the forest patch to recover.
As for the people from the rear city, only a dozen people were left. As Sam said the beasts couldn’t survive. The beasts died as the cultivators fought dirty, hook or crook to kill them.
The Leader who escape this looked at himself.
His body is bleeding in many spots. His arms were almost mangled by his own contracted beast. He had several broken bones and his head is still aching. His stomach is a mess with all the bones, rocks, and sand he swallowed.
He couldn’t even stand up.
Even in this state, this guy took out a scroll and started writing. He couldn’t hold a pen so he wrote with his finger and blood. After he finished the scroll, he rolled it up and took out a small formation disc.
As soon as he activated the disc, the scroll disappeared and the disc was completely destroyed.
Sam frowned when he saw this.
He doesn’t know exactly what this is, but he is sure that this is not exactly a good thing.
He immediately took the dimensional drifter out to go and Kumar and Noah followed.
The three of them disappeared from the spot and reappeared at the scene a few hundred meters away. Sam couldn’t get the exact location pinpointed from there, but it isn’t that far away. They reached the area and when the leader saw them, he felt hopeful and started yelling.
“Help. Please help. We are the Myriad Beast sect members. Please help us, you will be rewarded for your efforts.”
But the trio didn’t respond and just walked towards him calmly. Kumar and Noah finished off the rest of the people instantly making the leader’s face turn pale.
Sam took out his sword and finished him off. With his current state, even a Mortal Plane cultivator would be able to kill him much less him.
He instantly extracted the memory and finally understood what happened.
“He sent the details of the traps to the Rear city. This is an extremely high-level device that could teleport small objects.”
He picked the formation plate as he said.
“Wouldn’t that make our traps useless?”
“Not necessarily. From what I can see, he only gave the locations of the traps. He didn’t know the triggering points and conditions, neither does he know the true extent of the traps. If you ask me, this is an opportunity, more people will be sent now and this will make more people die in the traps. We can just wait and relax for a bit more time.”
With that, they collected the bodies and went back to the city to look at the forces of the Front City.
The time passed slowly as the Front city troops advanced forward and soon they arrived at the canyon where Sam’s trap is present and for some reason, the trap worked better on these guys than on the guys from the rear city.
In fact, these people were so into the hallucination that they killed their own beasts and ate them while the beasts devoured their contractors alive.
The loss of personnel is extremely high.
There are less than half of them left alive after they crossed the path. The leader this time, used the teleportation disc earlier and sent back the scroll.
Noah was surprised by this and asked.
“Didn’t you say it was extremely rare? Why does he have one too?”
“These cities are in charge of mainly taking care of the Mountain City. This is for the safety of the city so that the lady from the fiend tribe doesn’t escape. That is why they didn’t spare any resources here.”
“Just for that? These people are too rich.”
“Yeah, they are.”
They waited till evening and the front city troops didn’t move from their camp. It seems like they are waiting for the reinforcements. But they didn’t get any no matter how long they waited. Even after the sunset.
But the Rear city already sent the troops and in fact, they sent more of them. Sam even noticed the people with special attire and a woman leading the forces this time.
Noah and Kumar looked at her and said.
“She is the Core disciple that maintained the boy toy of the Farm town.” Kumar explained and Sam nodded in realization.”
“Seems like our provocation worked. But she is a bit earlier than I thought.”
“Who cares? I am pretty sure, even she wouldn’t be able to escape your nasty curse canyon.”
“That is not what I am worried about the most. If this much force appears at this moment right after our traps activated once in such a large scale today, it would take a long time for it to recover and recharge. If the people from the Fiend tribe didn’t make a move, we would have to move by ourselves and leave this city.”
