Chapter 645: Banished Realm
Chapter 645: Banished Realm
The Banished Realm. The only habitable planet in this realm is the target of Sam’s and his group’s destination.
The planet only has a single large landmass that occupied more than sixty percent of the planet and the sea is actually very small.
The whole continent houses the three races that have some authority and one race that doesn’t have any authority along with the vegetation, beasts, and mountains.
Within this continent, a peaceful village in the Dwarves’ territory.
This village is not too far from the border between the Dwarves and the Mintaours’ territory. But there are still some other villages and towns between the border and this village.
The village is full of wooden houses and there are barely any brick houses.
There are many humans that are walking down the streets with wooden or metal plows and other agricultural tools.
They are talking happily with smiles on their faces and one could occasionally see some dwarfs coming to talk with the villagers.
There is only one proper stone residence in this place and that is a small mansion at the center of the village. The mansion of the village head, who is a dwarf.
Dwarves are also humanoid creatures and they have strong bodies. Their only drawback is the tallest dwarf could at most grow up to four and a half to five feet. That is if he is of an extremely higher class of the dwarves and has the most superior of bloodlines.
The average dwarf could grow up to a little more than four feet and even if they are shorter, there is nothing to be surprised about.
The dwarves are skilled at some things inherently and they are forging, mining and brewing. They like drinking the wine most. As for their battle prowess, even though it was great, the first three take precedence for that.
Most dwarves are talented in the first three and even the least talented dwarf would have known about something regarding these three trades.
The dwarves mostly awaken the fire element and everyone who did that would learn forging. If they did awaken the other elements, they would focus on battle and mining aspects.
But even they have skillful hands that could work in other crafts related to producing something. They have high endurance and the best of all is that they have a certain level of resistance for other elemental attacks.
They have a bit of stout body and even their arms and legs are a bit thicker than humans and their skull structure is a bit different as they have bigger eyes and their nose is a bit rounder.
At this moment, a dwarf came out of that mansion and strolled all over the village in a proud manner.
He has a long beard which he stroked gently from time to time as he talked with the human villagers with a smile which they replied with the smile of their own.
The village is surrounded by fields and all the fields seemed to have just gone through a harvest. They need to be plowed and prepared for the next plantation and some of the villagers are already working in their fields.
It looked extremely peaceful. But all of a sudden…
*BOOM*
*CRASH*
A large explosion and a crashing sound could be heard from a distance and the dwarf village head looked at with a frown.
He and the rest of the dwarf guards all followed him as they ran towards that spot.
They could see the villagers are all terrified. Most of them are Great realm cultivators and Novice stage cultivators, but they are all running for their lives. The Dwarves felt that something horrible might have happened and they all felt a bad premonition.
When they reached the area where the chaos started, they were stunned to see large Bulky humanoid creatures with their bare chests running and trampling the houses with their maces and large axes.
But those axes and hammers and the power behind their hits failed to create as much fear as their OX heads did.
They are minotaurs and they are now invading the village.
The Village head immediately came back to his senses and ordered for a guard to go back and activate a signal in the Village head mansion.
Most of the guards in the village are stationed at the borders of the village to guard, but they didn’t expect that the danger came from inside.
Even though, the signal was given it was too late. There are not many dwarves in this place and the minotaurs are already running towards the Mansion to take over it. The defenses are already breached and the dwarves don’t have any advantage left, in fact, they are in a perilous situation.
The whole village was full of slaughter as every dwarf and the villagers that resisted were killed completely.
Before they knew it, the village changed hands and the humans are all led to a specific place.
All the humans are huddled together in a field as they feared for their lives and shivered as they held their kin close to their hearts.
The Minotaurs are all going through the village to loot and pillage and capture any more humans that stayed in.
At this moment.
Within a corner of the village where the humans are still trying their best to gather their valuables before they were led to the field, around twenty feet above a house, six people appeared out of nowhere.
They seemed to have horrified expressions as they seemed to have realized something extremely dangerous.
But before they could do anything, they crashed into the house under them and turned it into rubble.
Even though they crashed into that empty house, nobody seemed to have noticed them as the humans are all running towards the field and some of them are trying their best to escape.
Sam stood up a bit groggily as he looked at his group. All of them crashed into this place out of nowhere.
But that is no what bothered them. Even though they fell from twenty feet, all they felt is some pain which would go away easily. The main problem right now is that they couldn’t access their spiritual energy.
They felt some extreme resistance as if someone had caught their spiritual cores and not letting the energy out.
Not just that, even their spiritual sense was not working and they failed to call out the hoverboards and even their beasts.
Even Sam lost his composure and the rest of his friends began to panic. Even though the Old beast said that there would be some resistance in the beginning and it will gradually loosen up, he didn’t mention it would be this much.
Sam stood up and looked around. All he could see is that everyone is running away. He didn’t understand what is happening.
They just sat there and closed their eyes as they tried their best to get their spiritual sense and energy back.
After fifteen minutes are so, they finally felt something and the first thing Sam did is ask them to store their coats in their spatial rings.
They stand out too much when they are with the rest of the humans and they didn’t recover most of the energy. Even their spiritual sense is minute and they can at most activate their storages.
Their energy is also minuscule and it can be at most considered the same as an Initiation Cultivator.
If not for the body strength they have which couldn’t be sealed, they would probably die easily.
As they circulated their energy, they noticed that the resistance and the seal over their spiritual cores are wearing down and they could feel it increasing.
At this rate, they would have to wait for another week or ten days to recover their energy.
They picked up some clothes that are inside this house and wore them.
As they walked outside to look around, they noticed some large muscular creatures with Ox head running over with clubs in their hands as they commanded all the humans to follow a human who is wearing different clothes from the rest of the humans in the village.
Sam frowned at this. He picked this location because Old beast showed the border between the Dwarven territory and Minatours’ territory, but here the first thing he encountered is a Minotaur.
He couldn’t sense their energy because of his current state, but from the force of their clubs, he could fairly guess that they are at most in the grand realm. One minotaur looked at the group and screamed.
“Move to the fields. Do you want to die here?”
They felt weird when they looked at the talking Ox heads, but they didn’t resist as they followed their instructions and walked towards the fields.
All this while, they didn’t speak and only focused on intently listening to the ramblings of these two oxheads.
“This time, the village was easily sacked. We would receive great rewards.”
“Of course, we would, we occupied the city in two hours and our boss even killed thirty dwarves in total. How can we not get rewarded?”
“Yeah, we even rounded up most of the humans, do you know, the village that was sacked three days ago by other squad didn’t have good results, not only half of the dwarves escaped, but even half of the humans escaped. We did a lot better compared to them.
But what a pity, so many humans are wasted?”
“Haha, that is why you are called a mud-head. There is no way they could escape. All the surrounding villages of the Dhaka village will be sacked by the next two days, where could they even go? They will end up working for us anyway.”
