Sam and Jack checked the surroundings and found a place filled with corpses, but all their faces are messed up and can not be identified at all. The corpses are also is pieces. They are also close to rotting.
Then they came to conclusion. The Blood spirit ghoul is not created intentionally, but rather an accident due to these corpses.
But they question is who is the person who carried out this massacre and why did he do it?
They didn’t linger on it for much longer and walked towards the city.
Just like the previous times, they entered the city discreetly and went to a most rundown inn.
But there a surprise awaited him, actually not only to him, even Jack was surprised because, there was another group of people checking in and they knew these people.
They are none other than their teammates.
Philip is the first one to notice them, and he didn’t seem surprised at all. He waved his hands as if meeting here was natural.
Philip said as he saw their surprised expressions.
"Do you think you are the only one who can complete the tasks faster? If not for the fact that it took time to travel, we might have come back a long time ago. Almost all the cities only took two days to clear them out.
I don’t know what you gave to Watt, but the intel gathering took less than a day. And we taking them down didn’t prove to be a challenge at all."
When Sam heard this, he didn’t even know what to say. But at least he was glad. Because, he didn’t find the time to work on ape. He needs to upgrade latter’s bloodline, he first thought that he should do that after dealing with the Black water.
But since, all of them are here, he can use this chance to upgrade the latter’s bloodline while they simultaneously carried out the task. All he has to do was, get involved when the situation turned sideways.
Sam greeted them and all of the checked into their rooms. Jasmine excitedly talked to Kelly, about how she flew on a Golden bird and how she played with Ape and panthers.
After going into his room, Sam immediately entered the second floor of the tower.
The trouble with unleashing Golden fist ape’s bloodline is a bit troublesome.
Because, unlike shadow mice with impurities and Sky with partial bloodline, the Golden fist ape is a but different. The Golden ape bloodline is completely inside the ape.
But the problem is that 50 percent of the bloodline was under the suppression of the natural seal which is due to the conditions of environment it was born.
Since, the Golden fist ape of his has around 50 percent bloodline activated, its birth environment must have been above average.
But unseal this national suppression, he has to work on it. The process itself is not complicated at all, but it is extremely taxing, not only to his body but also his mentality.
He will mentally exhausted and the recovery time would be quite high.
He can even recover his body within a day if he cultivated, but the mental exhaustion will take more than that and he needs to cultivate his soul and spirit continuously otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to stay peaceful and he will become extremely sensitive.
He informed Jack to not to disturb him for the next two to three days and gave away all the other mice he had.
With ten shadow mice taking action, the investigation will take an exponential leap in speed and might even be finished.
But before going in Sam listened to City’s situation from Watt.
The City has recently changed its counts. The son of the previous count who is in Great warrior level 2 just took the position a week ago.
The rumours are that the old count has gone out to search for further cultivation opportunities as his own son caught up to him.
Sam didn’t find anything strange, he only warned him to not involve with the count until all the info was obtained and ready to take action.
He also told him to cooperate with Jack as he managed to clear the previous count city and with the help of ten shadow mice the time will greatly reduce and they can even finish the job in ten days.
He didn’t bother mentioning the loot as he knew that the loot will be his no matter what. If these guys really the type to play any tricks, he might have gone with Watt alone and left them to fend for themselves.
Sam sat in the second floor and started grinding the herbs along with some types of beast blood.
He started painting the runic inscriptions on the floor.
He took more than ten thousand spirit stones and placed them inside the inscription runes.
After that, the ape sat inside its designated spot and Sam stood in his designated spot.
He started channelling the spiritual energy. The energy was forcefully directed towards the beast core of the ape.
The process has to be done with extreme precision, if it was even a little bit off, the beast would die.
After the energy entered the beast core, it started channelling itself into all the meridians and all the vital organs.
A completely impure looking blood which is almost black in colour started seeping out of the ape’s body until the fur was completely covered with it.
This is the first step.
The next step is activating the latent bloodline and let it resonate with the active blood line.
This is the most taxing as Sam has to concentrate to fullest and the process is not a short one, he will be taking more than ten days for this finish.
Meanwhile, outside world at night after the dinner time of the inn is over, Watt and the remaining teams are sitting inside the dining hall. Because, even the first day of the information is something made them stunned.
The underworld of the city is completely controlled by only one gang. Of all the count cities, this might as well be the only count city which has only one big gang.
They still didn’t know how to feel about this, that is why they gathered here. Only Watt and Jack are a little bit normal. Of course, there is Philip who is always same no matter the situation.
"We are still going to proceed the same. We will enquire for a small-time member who likes to flaunt his authority. He would be our lead to rest of our gang." Jack said to the group.
Their general procedure is to enquire about the smallest gang member and get the required info out of him.
After all, they will be more informed about the info on territories, contact points and all other stuff. But now that there are no small gangs, they don’t have any choice other than to find a lowest level member.
But even then, it is not that simple, they just can’t get info out of him by interrogation. Because, once that guy was abducted the remaining gang members will find out sooner or later and they will be more cautious and an unrest this early is not what they desire.
So, they proceeded to find that loud mouth of a person.
The next day, when they met for lunch someone has good news and that someone is one of the two siblings assigned to the team.
From his lead, Watt followed the guy and when they went to a certain area in the slums where the street vendors are common, they could hear a person’s shouts.
"Do you know, who I am? How dare you ask me money? I am the member of Alligator gang. I will f.u.c.k.i.n.g thrash your shop if you ask me again? Do you understand?"
Watt couldn’t help but shake his head. This guy is definitely a new recruit and he definitely not so strong. Otherwise, why would he harass a few vendors in a slum if he all that powerful.
Watt left after just taking a look. The guy who brought him here, one of the siblings was confused. He never knew how Watt gathered information and he wanted to witness it today.
He thought that Watt might have some stealth skills or tailing skills in order to get info to that level. But it seemed that he isn’t in luck to see them.
But he didn’t know that Watt already did his job. He left five shadow mice to follow the guy and they will slowly penetrate into the gang.
The remaining five will be directed into the Count mansion to keep a track on the officials as well as Count.
So, that day Watt made a trip to the street opposite to the count mansion and left the remaining mice.
Now all they have to do is wait and think on how to use the situation in the gang to their favour.
