Chapter 131: Zoi termite
Chapter 131: Zoi termite
Sam left the shadow mice in the hiding place. His only lead right now is that hidden boss who will come to this place to check on the situation and he would most probably come alone.
So, Sam gave instructions so that they will follow the people who came alone and if they can identify someone suspicious, they can notify him.
If they miss to tail that guy, they have to work from the start by targeting another small gang.
Sam went back to the mansion. He went into deep thought.
The situation of the Blue flame city is suspicious than he thought and it is more complicated.
The most annoying thing is that the two different gangs doesn’t even have much contact. There are no direct enemy gangs, clashing businesses. All the illegal businesses are completely and systematically divided.
The city was completely divided by the small gangs and there seemed to be no big influence from the surface.
But this made the situation even more fishy. How are they staying so disciplined? Who are these lords? Are they together or not? Are they individually working or working under someone? Where is Black water inside all this mess?
These questions are bugging him. But Sam has a feeling that it is going to be a hared job to go against these forces.
Next day, Sam went to meet the Marquis first thing in the morning. After telling him the situation, Marquis’ expression turned sour.
He wished that Sam’s assumption of having the underground forces in his city might be wrong. But never did he expect that there are so many and so deeply hidden.
“So, how are we going to proceed?” Even though the situation is not what he wished for, he really wanted, he still sucked it up and thought forward.
After all, cleaning this up is more important.
Sam thought for a bit and said.
“I want you to personally contact the low-level city guards, who are responsible for patrols in all zones.
Contact them one at a time and do so as discreetly as possible.
Ask them if there are any officials giving them orders to ignore a specific place in any zone during patrols or ordered them to ignore any suspicious person.
No matter, how insignificant it might be, note everything down. Details about which officials, his exact words, the place or person they wanted to ignore. Everything. Tell them that you would guarantee their safety.
Record all the details and don’t let anyone know about this.
You do this personally.”
“Why?”
“Do you really think, that this big of a network is running without anyone knowing? At least one official will be corrupt and might know a thing or two.
Oh, almost forgot. Don’t leak the mission details to anyone of your officials and keep it a secret that I am working on the Blue flame city from the remaining participants.
I might go out of the city for a while, so you finish the task within a month.”
After that Sam went back to the mansion and informed Watt and Jack about his departure.
“You guys better catch up faster. Or you will be left in dust.” Sam said giving them a blow mentally and left the place after having a happy meal in his restaurant.
Sam moved on his harbinger and moved towards the Falcon Cliff city.
After half a day of travel, Sam finally reached the place he wanted to go.
The Insect canyon. His target is the Zoi termite queen. He wants to tame the Zoi termite queen and he can use these termites to do a lot of things for him.
Even though, these Zoi termites are quite superior, they are quite inferior to the blood line of Sam’s companions.
Sam has some cards, to bargain with the Zoi termite queen, which seemed to be a Level 4 Beast on same level as a Great realm cultivator.
Last time, he is only a beginner Novice, so he immediately fled the place. This time though, he has raised his strength and there are some things he prepared before-hand.
But there is one thing that has to happen, if he wants to do all this. That is the queen must accept talking to him. Otherwise, all the plans will go to waste.
So, Sam collected the grass which hinders these termites and started taking those juices out and applied all over skin, before slowly entering the canyon on the harbinger.
When he reached the spot where he saw the Queen termite, Sam started sending his spiritual sense and soon the foot ball sized queen came into his view and he carefully probed into it.
{Human, you better get lost before I get angry}
A husky female voice entered his mind.
“Well, you might want to listen to me before sending me off.”
{I have nothing to talk to a creature from a Greedy race like yours}
Sam couldn’t help but shake his head. Even the insects are despising humans. He wondered what would those people who always compare weaklings to insects think about it if they knew this.
He shook his thoughts off from his head and started releasing his beastly auras. These might help him to make a conversation and his guess was correct.
{What is this aura? This doesn’t seem like the one that belongs to humans. What are you exactly?} This time the voice was laced with curiosity.
“Well, I am human at least partially. So, can we talk now?”
{What do you want to talk about?}
“Nothing, I just want to make a deal.”
{A deal? With you? I will never make a deal with a human. You lot or just too greedy}
This time Sam almost cursed. Just how deep is this insect’s resentment towards humans.
“Can you at least listen to me?”
{Talk}
“How about you follow me from now on? We will have a mutual relationship. I will give you and your children, the required food and also improve your bloodline and you have to work for me.”
{You? Providing food for us? Boy you are dreaming. Do you know how much food we need and how many children I have?}
“Judging from your aura, you are a Level 4 and your whole colony will consist of a maximum of 5000 termites and among them most of them are normal soldiers at Level 1 and a 500 of them might be level 2 and 100 of them might be Level 3.
Do you really think that you can survive in this small canyon?
The stray beasts might keep you from starving and survival albeit barely. But can you really guarantee that you will be able to advance further. Here I am giving you chance.”
{How do you know about all these?}
“Does it really matter? I said I will give you a chance.”
{How can I trust you? I don’t trust humans.}
“Do you trust beasts then?” Sam said as he waved his hand. Yanwu and Sky came out immediately.
“I don’t know if you know about these beasts. But Zoi termites are one of the oldest races and you might have heard them from your seniors. Three legged golden sun crow and Sky sovereign roc.”
{They are just your pets; I don’t trust them} The husky voice trembled a bit. Maybe due to surprise or from the bloodline pressure of two superior races.
“A correction. They are not my pets, they are my companions, my friends. Think about it. I can unleash the true potential of your bloodline. You and your children can grow faster. I can give you all the food you want. Think carefully.”
Sam finished his piece and immediately left the place.
He went back into the forest without wasting his time here. For he has confidence that he can move the termite queen. He better focus on make some preparations on the food needed for these termites.
So, Sam is going to search for some herbs or plants which grow rapidly as well as find some beasts which will reproduce rapidly.
He can create a farm inside the Divine dimension.
So, Sam along with his beasts went on a hunt over the nearby forests.
His first target is the herbs. While, Yanwu and Sky concentrate on beasts. Ape is left to gather some fruit tree.
The search was completely fruitless for that day.
So, he made a camp and took a carefree sleep.
The next day early morning, he went to the nearby stream to see if he can catch something and he found something really interesting and that is a Boar.
Boars and pigs reproduce faster and also the number of offspring is also quite high.
But he has to find that large boar a partner and he needs to make it submit with force without making a contract. Otherwise, it would be painful making eating them.
The Boar was a low level one, so that is not much of a problem. After that was caught Sam started searching for the tracks of the boar to reach its stay. He might find that partner there.
{Please read the Creators thought, an announcement is there about mass release}
