Chapter 812: War in the forest
Chapter 812: War in the forest
Sam is using all his beasts except Mia and Shadow mice and the panthers. But the Orangutans seemed to be never-ending.
He halted for a second and checked the area with the crystal table once again and was surprised to find out that the monkeys kept on coming from different sides.
They numbered in hundreds.
If this goes on, there is only one method, he would have to use the harbinger and the guns to deal with them faster.
But even then, there is no guarantee that this would be controlled. If he used any other methods, like energy cells, mass explosions of grenades or burning the whole forest with the bio-fuel, then he would gather some serious attention from the people who are roaming the forest and also even stronger beasts.
After contemplating for a while, he decided to counter the numbers with numbers for a while and only go for the drastic measures when necessary.
He let out the Specter and asked him to perform soul necromancy on the corpses. Not the soul necromancy that is used to get the memories, rather really catching the souls of these monkeys and using them for attacks. Or precisely using them as ghosts to make mental attacks on the monkeys, at the same time, he let the Ghoul Chess team out and let them create the undead of the Orangutan corpses.
These undead creatures have only one goal and that is to get a hold of the orangutans and hold them tightly, while Sam put a bullet through its head.
The whole area turned into hell.
And once the Orangutans even lost the advantage of numbers, the situation is finally in favor of Sam.
But Sam heard something that made him feel tense.
*ROAR*
He can hear the roars of an orangutan from far away. But he is sure that it is not a normal orangutan. It is surely something that is at least transcendent level.
Sam couldn’t help but get a look at the crystal table.
There are three figures coming from three different directions and all three of them are Orangutans. They are bigger than the orangutans that are currently attacking Sam and looked stronger.
They are clearly Transcendent stage Orangutans.
All of a sudden the monkeys in this area didn’t attack as aggressively, instead, they are encircling every beast and ghoul so that they can make them stay in this place no matter what.
Sam couldn’t help but curse the intelligence of these creatures. They can be dumb enough to get irritated and fall for the slightest of the provocations and they can also be smart enough to act like they are acting now.
Those beasts that are coming to accompany them didn’t even give out any commands in that roar, but these things still managed to do this.
Sam sped up on the harbinger and started letting everyone enter the divine dimension and the ghouls into the chessboard.
The Orangutans are trying every possible way to get a hold of him, but that is not going to happen. Sam is really sick of these monkeys. As much as he doesn’t want to continue this conflict they are just too persistent.
But they really do make a good squad to work in forests.
He looked at the most injured by alive monkeys and started collecting them into the chess board, but not without doing anything else.
He is taking out all the accumulated bio-fuel he had and made it rain over the whole area.
The Monkeys are all getting soaked in the bio-fuel. But they didn’t stop, they are just too excited that their superiors are coming to help them.
Sam is keeping track of those three superiors and soon they are within the range of his sight.
They are coming aggressively as they crushed some smaller trees on their way.
Sam is currently hovering over harbinger while dodging the monkeys that are jumping from the trees onto him to catch him.
By now all his companions including the beasts, ghouls, and even the specter are all either in the divine dimension or in chessboard. Only he was there alone.
As soon as he saw the three larger monkeys entering the fray and were about to near him, Sam made his move, he increased the altitude and moved upwards.
There is only one large tree near him that is tall enough for the three monkeys to follow him.
They climbed rapidly and there is not much difference if they are running or climbing. They are that fast.
After reaching a certain height, Sam placed his hand on the tree trunk and set it on fire.
The tree trunk caught on fire rapidly and it reached downwards faster and faster.
Because this is also the tree that was soaked on the biofuel the most.
The whole tree is on orange flames and these orange flames didn’t just stay there. They extended downwards to the surrounding trees.
The three monkeys jumped downwards into the group of their subordinates and all the monkeys are moving backward to not catch this large fire.
But there is an undead that emerged from within the group that jumped to one of the trees and caught fire before once again jumping into the group. The same thing happened in many ways.
The monkeys whose affinity lies in wood elemental energy and the biofuel are not supposed to be a good combination.
The three large monkeys are now stuck in the middle of the large group of their kin that was set on fire. They have not trees nearby that are intact to take advantage of.
Sam looked at the situation and made a move.
He created a formation around this area, so as to prevent forest fire and then proceeded to throw the biofuel over the three large monkeys so that they would catch on fire faster.
Even though they might be a good catch for the chessboard, he is more interested in catching the beasts that are of the same level as him which would be a good thing in the long run.
He has enough powerhouses for now and the current underdogs are bound to become powerful in the near future.
The situation is not too bad for now.
But Sam is worried that there would be another sudden appearance of the Orangutans, but luckily that didn’t happen.
As the three monkeys are burning continuously and the actions of the undead whose only job is to pin them down and Sam’s only job which is to throw more and more fuel on them, they are finally taken down.
Sam let the specter out to collect all souls.
He digested the three souls of those superiors while he used the soul formation to collect the rest of the Orangutan souls.
Currently, it is already in the transcendent stage, if it wants to improve the lower level souls wouldn’t do much anyway.
And he also collected the memories of these three large monkeys.
Sam was surprised when he went through the memories. Because he is caught up in the middle of another war.
The Orangutans waged a war on the Bear territory to occupy the land, resources and such.
The Bears are individually strong, but they are not strong in terms of numbers.
Even if they can take on ten orangutans each, they are just coming in groups of the twenties, so the bear king just led the whole bear tribe into the nearby mountains to create a defensive line.
This is a bit surprising to Sam.
These beasts are really too smart, they are now waging wars, setting up the defense, and even using war strategies.
This is new to him.
But Sam is a bit excited.
This would be a perfect time for him to take advantage and catch a bear to be his next beast in breakthrough. All the while loosening up in the battle.
He looked through the route he should take from the monkey’s memories and started moving in that direction.
The current area he was in happened to be the area that was previously under bear’s command. It was recently occupied and the hundreds of these monkeys are the soldiers of the Orangutan army that are holding this place down. And that includes the three large orangutans.
He traveled for almost an hour to reach the destination.
He stood on a tall tree to look at the large swarm of Orangutans stationed at the foot of a hill.
This is very similar to an actual war. If there are some tents and some formations, then it would definitely be mistaken as a human or in this planet an elven war.
Sam has to circle around the line of defense of these Orangutans to reach that hill which is the start of the mountain region the bears occupied.
He doesn’t want to be mistaken as an ally for the Orangutans. So, he has to make sure that he went discreetly and as soon as possible.
The war doesn’t seem to be heated enough, so it would be better if he went as fast as he can before it does.
