The Young lady from the Myriad Beast sect didn’t stop even for a second to consider any tactical engagement or sorts before she ran headfirst into the city gates along with her troops.
Sam didn’t activate his trap immediately, because to have a better effect Noah activated her trap first and it is a very common wood elemental energy trap. The vines appeared suddenly from the ground and the troops got caught with the high momentum they had until that point, they couldn’t even control their fall.
As they fell forward face-first, they felt like a force ten times greater than the normal gravity is pulling them downwards.
It is the gravitational increment Sam created so that they wouldn’t be able to control their fall and to make sure that they fell on the ground and took some time to get out.
Almost all the soldiers that arrived at the gate got into the trap and looking at them, the rear troops halted outside the game.
The young lady and her personal soldiers, however, managed to control themselves even in the surprising situations and it seems like they are half-expecting a trap, so they used some special knives that are glowing with death elemental energy to cut off the vines and used all their might to jump off of that the gravitational field.
While they are in mid-air Sam activated the trap.
*BOOM*
A controlled explosion of energy. Sam must say he became really fond of these things, if though the effect would be best when the liquid energy cells are used, the normal formation flags that use the natural energy in the surroundings are also not a bad thing.
It is like carrying a bunch of explosives at hand and if one could set it up as fast as they want it to explode, it would be a perfect weapon to use.
The explosion didn’t kill too many people, but the people that are within the absolute range of the explosion are dead and at the edge of the explosion range are sent flying to different directions with severe injuries.
Everyone was shocked by this. But that is not the end of it. The troops immediately became alert and let their beasts out.
It was stupid of them to not let their beasts go first and it is also stupid of them to not be cautious enough even after facing so many deadly traps, but now that they also bit the bullet here, they could only do what needs to be done from now on and let their beasts out for an all-out fight.
But as soon as their beasts came out, they suddenly felt a bit frightened, because Sam who didn’t use his beasts in a long time let out his own beasts as well.
Not all of them, Yanwu and Sky teamed up to deal with the birds, while Dia and Raiju teamed up to deal with the beasts on the land along with the Golden ape. The shadow mice also joined the fray to finish off the injured ones with one swift move.
Sam and Noah joined in the battle directly.
Even their first target is the injured ones and before the troops could react properly, they are already having severe casualties.
Finally, after a minute, the young lady’s mind became clear enough to make sense of the situation and she took the charge of controlling the troops and gave them commands.
But before Sam and Noah’s collaboration, it became less fruitful.
They almost completely ignored the ranged attacks coming at them as they kept on moving at an incredible pace. It is almost like the two phantoms dancing around like crazy.
They arrived at one soldier and Noah made her vines coil around him, Sam used the window to stab him in the throat with the sword, and in the meantime, he kicked on the ground backward and a stone protrusion appeared exactly in the middle of another man’s legs hitting him in the testicles.
He stopped in his tracks and Sam threw a knife into his chest at the same time a shadow mouse appeared and slashed that guy’s throat.
Meanwhile, Noah’s vines coiled into another guy and made him go down into the ground.
Sam jumped towards him while dodging a spear strike and landed right on his neck and jumped once again breaking his neck in the process.
As Sam is in mid-air, a large boulder suddenly flew towards him, but before he could even react, some vines caught it and swung it towards another soldier.
Meanwhile, Sam slashed his sword and the sword ray slashed vertically past Noah and sliced a guy’s arm off and Noah used his chance to shove a weird fruit in that guy’s mouth and kicked him towards his teammates.
He flew into the middle of the group and the fruit exploded in his mouth with a pop.
It seems like a wood elemental poison in the fruit and they felt like their lungs are being occupied by something and they soon realized what it is. Their lungs are being occupied by the sprouted grass all over and it sprouted out of their chests.
Everything happened within a few seconds and this went on. Soon, the personal guards and the young lady herself joined the fray.
Some of them have higher cultivations than Noah and Sam, so now they have to be careful on how to proceed further.
Sam took out a glass container filled with purple liquid and Noah took out a large green sphere both of them exchanged a glance with a smile and threw it towards the personal guards. Sam slashed in the air and sword ray made both objects explode on the spot, a green vapor and a purple vapor appeared as it spread among them.
Of course, they were prepared and cleared the area which forced them to break their formation. But Sam and Noah didn’t stop while they are killing the soldiers in the rear, they kept on throwing these poisonous things around so that the young lady cannot gather her personal guards and create a formation.
Soon, they spread far enough and it would take a lot of effort to regroup. Since her personal guards don’t have any beasts under them, Sam felt extremely lucky. It would be a lot of effort to deal with them if they had.
Sam and Noah went after one personal guard at a time and as soon as they arrived there the first they did is throw the poisonous gases on either side so that the others wouldn’t intervene and they got to do the job.
Sam slammed his foot into the ground and the small piece of ground under the guard turned into quicksand and the earthen hands appeared holding him. Noah’s vines came in and started dragging him into the quicksand.
With another stomp, Sam dodged the attack from the guard and increased the gravity, before silver lightning condensed on the edge of his blade and as he slashed it onto that guard, a shadow appeared from behind him and stabbed him on the side of his neck. He was paralyzed on the spot and let the quicksand suck him knee-deep. At this moment, someone used the wind element to clear the poisonous smoke, but Sam didn’t bother with it and broke a small poisonous vial in the mouth of their current target and both of them left.
The poison caused the paralysis and the wound on the neck bled out rapidly while the poison and the slash on the chest did their jobs along with it.
They once again took out their poison containers and went for the next targets as they moved around. They went for the personal guard on the edge of the whole group and dealt with him in almost the same way. But this time, he got vigilant about the stomps and he jumped backward instantly, but right where he was about land, two shadows appeared from under him and stabbed him in the back.
Sam jumped into the air used the excessive gravity to land on him while stabbing him inside the heart, Noah just to make sure held some poisonous thorny vines to deal with him and both of them ran deeper into the city.
Their advantage over the group with the element of surprise is almost gone, there is no way they would be able to keep this up for long.
Along with them, Yanwu and the rest also followed with the chaos clearing a little bit, the young lady stood there in daze as she looked at the beasts.
"Sky sovereign Roc, Golden Sun crow. Golden Ape, Raiju, Mare of Diomedes. All legendary beasts, who is this person?" She muttered to herself as her eyes started glowing with desire, excitement and greed. These are the beasts that the beast cultivators would die for. In fact they would even sign a reverse contract of being a slave just to be that beast’s companion and that is considering only one beast, but all four of them are under one cultivator’s command here and she observed the lightning attacks which are extremely similar to that of the Raiju’s and the gravity that is similar to that of Dia’s.
She couldn’t help but feel the desire to snatch these beasts from him and she impulsively acted up on it as she led her guards and the remaining troops to go after them.
