Chapter 1207: Successful Execution
Chapter 1207: Successful Execution
Since he got the chance, Sam didn’t even bother to hold back. While the target and the manager are trying to mend the space around them, he threw the leather strips all over the place making the space more and more unstable with every second.
Dozens of strips landed on the circle that was formed by the fluctuation of the spatial energy.
Sam knew the moment, he stops doing this is the moment, the manager would attack him and the target would escape, but he cannot just do that. At least not yet.
He looked at the guards that are coming to the area from all the corners of the branch. Not just guards, even other employees are coming.
“Kumar, it might be a good time start dealing with them. Noah, you too. The resting time is over.”
“I am on it.”
“Me too.”
They replied and all of a sudden a glowing large spear that is in the size of a large beast flew through the air as it made its way towards the guards that are closest to the circle.
*BOOM*
A large explosive sound came as the spear that was condensed with spiritual energy landed on the ground and the guards were blown away to all the sides.
The damage is not extremely severe, but it is not small either. The spear intent is making the air sharper around them and it is hurting to even breathe. Their spiritual energy flow is in a slight turmoil which needed them to calm down.
But at this moment, in the between a group of the guards, a small red flowed appeared from the ground out of nowhere and they frowned at this. Before they could react, a bunch of vines started protruding out of the leaves and the red flower became larger and larger until it could fit two people on it.
The vines started coiling around them people and the flower caught one of them as it closed up.
*BOOM* *BOOM* “MMPH”
Some sounds of explosion and the muffled yells could be heard from inside the flower, there is even some smoke from the gap at the top. But he wasn’t able to come out.
As for the people coiled in the vines, they are trying to hack it or burn it way. And they are almost succeeding, but whenever a small explosive sound occurred within the flower, two short vines from the flower acted like whips and they would be surrounded with flames as they hit the people that were in captive.
Sam took a peek at this and spoke in the communication device.
“Kumar, your girlfriend is kicking your ass in the damage department. You are going to get your ass kicked literally after you guys got married.”
“Just how easy is your task that you have time to joke around about my possible plights.” Kumar spoke from the nearby building as he prepared another spear.
The spear in his hands looked like it was made of pure energy concentrated and condensed together and as he channeled that energy, it turned sharper and wilder with the spear intent.
He aimed at the people that are regathering and…
*BOOM*
Another explosive sound occurred and this time, after it hit the ground, not only did a crater appear, something else happened. The spiritual energy turned into ripples as they spread outwards. Each ripple is like a condensed and unified wave of spears moving at the same time and many low-level guards died on the spot.
“That is good. Both of you just need to hang on for two more minutes like that.” Sam said as he looked at the damage they are causing. In fact, their moves are flashy and dangerous to look at and they didn’t pack too much of a devastating damage.
But they could deter the people a lot.”
If they neared their location recklessly, Sam would have trouble in keeping the manager and the target in there.
As for why he is doing such a repetitive and irritating task to just keep these two men here for a little while; there is one step of the plan that is being executed at the moment and until it is perfectly clear, he wouldn’t be able to let them go.
In fact, all the attacks he and the other two doing right now are completely useless.
They don’t serve any purpose other than causing chaos.
“Sam, I think we are dragging too long. We need energy to escape later, if things go south. Just finish it off quickly.”
Noah said through the communication line.
“I know. It is almost done.”
As he spoke, he closed his eyes for a few seconds and reopened them again before speaking to the other two.
“Use all your prepared fire power. All the traps and all the attacks, in the next thirty seconds, do not hold back anything and get your escape tokens ready.
We are going to leave.”
As Sam said, he looked at the Old man and the manager and suddenly stopped attack with the leather strips.
He acted as if he lost energy ad started yelling into a normal communication token.
“Guys, I need backup. I am out of them. Come fast.”
As he yelled like that, the manager’s eyes lit up and looked around to confirm that there is no immediately threat in the surroundings, before he made a move.
His body started glowing silver gray as he used the spatial elemental fusion. The energy spread around and the space mended at an incredible speed as if the fabric was being sewed with a bunch of needles.
Sam just looked at him while maintaining that terrified expression.
“Guys come fast. The target is escaping the formation. The target is loose.”
As he yelled, he couldn’t stay there anymore and started flying away on harbinger. Meanwhile, the circular crack has mended enough for both target and the old man to escape.
“Couldn’t you have done that sooner?”
The target yelled at the old manager.
“If there was an explosion in the already existing cracks, while I am doing this, my soul would be damaged with the backlash. Now, stop whining and get the fuck out of here.”
Sam started moving at full speed and the old man manager used the spatial blink to catch up. They crossed a few hundred meters in just a few minutes and at this moment, the target also took out that crystal ball and escaped.
As the spatial energy enveloped him and he was about to disappeared. Sam suddenly turned around and looked at the old manager who came at him calmly and right before he could strike, he disappeared into thin air.
The old man observed the spatial energy fluctuations around Sam and couldn’t help but frown.
He had a bad feeling about this and he ran back to the place of attack. But there was nothing there. The attacks also stopped and all his staff are relieved. There are not many casualties, barely any people died and they are low level cultivation. The rest are barely injured at all.
He looked around and started looking for traces. He couldn’t put his finger on it, but it seems like there is something really wrong in this whole scene.
The attacks that are not particularly aimed to kill, the lackluster traps that are only flashy with no substance. Even though the timing is perfect, the whole trap looked extremely clumsy to him.
He couldn’t even bring himself to think of this as a proper sneak attack.
And that is what made him feel something is wrong, the people are skilled and even the flashy attacks are done with utmost precision. They are sure capable, but they acted with utmost stupidity.
But there is nothing in front of him that gave him any clues.
He doesn’t know how right he was though.
Because, at this moment, Sam, Noah, and Kumar are currently in the secret underground and in particular, the room with the space gate.
The target is currently trapped inside the lightning prison.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
The constant bashing on the cage walls could be easily heard.
“Who the hell are you people? Let me out now. You guys don’t even know who I am and what I am capable of. The people behind him will skin you alive and pick the bones off of your body.
Sam just looked at him with disinterest.
This guy’s insults and threats are not even creative.
He started placing formation nodes around the lightning prison and activated the formation, the lightning prison disappeared on the spot and the trio soon followed the prison.
Right after they left, another spatial fluctuation happened and the old man appeared here. He didn’t find the target and felt the spatial fluctuations around the room.
The bad feeling which felt was intensified to a large extent.
Meanwhile, the trio and the target are currently in the forest as they appeared near a mobile space node Sam set up. He is playing with the little Void hopper.
This void hopper is the reason why they managed to execute the plan perfectly anyway and now he is using that to make Sam play with him more.
