The tower defense ending is not magnificent at all. It is in fact boring. When the two forces engaged, the blue team who should have played a defensive role with the excess number of earth element users they have, the commander of the blue team couldn’t stay calm and went on being offensive.
His soldiers are aggressive and suicidal. Although he did do some significant damage to the red team, he still suffered more.
After he calmed down, he finally realized the mistake and used all his brain and forces to create a deadlock.
The deadlock worked quite well for a short period of time. But the problem arrived when the water element users who are using the stream move towards the tower. They could easily attack from the back of the tower, but taking advantage of their positions.
The blue team couldn’t afford to send the men back and deal with them when they came out of the water, because even if one person is moved away from the defensive position, the deadlock would collapse like a sandcastle.
But as the water element users neared, the wind element users who are moving differently already joined the red team and the balance is close to titling.
Sam must say the opponent really did put a great fight.
As the water element users emerged from the back of the tower, the blue soldiers suddenly moved in a chaotic way and they started exploring their spiritual cores.
Sam raised an eyebrow in an amusing way.
All the blue team soldiers are getting ready to explode and since Sam’s soldiers already covered the whole area, he could see what is happening. He couldn’t help but chuckle, the blue commander whoever he is has lost patience and is doing a last-ditch effort.
Sam didn’t care at all and only ordered the last remaining troops at his tower, leaving only ten of them here to make a move.
They ran fast and got ready to cross the border. Even if the blue soldiers blew themselves up and kill all the red soldiers, there is no way they would defeat the red team.
And the blue soldiers really did blow up, but not all of them. Only those that are in the middle of the red soldiers and the ones that are near the water element users are coming towards the tower.
This stopped the invasion of the tower and the blue wind element user started running towards the red territory.
Sam couldn’t help but smirk at this.
The blue soldier just jumped into the stream and let is wash him to the sea without offering any resistance. The most he did is to make sure that he wouldn’t get hurt by hitting the bed and stones in the stream.
This is the true last struggle.
But before that person could cross half the stream, one of Sam’s soldiers who defended against the explosion crawled towards the tower in an extremely slow manner. He is the least wounded person in the explosions and even the blue soldiers were more wounded than him.
Currently, Sam is playing a game with him. He wanted to see if the enemy commander will notice or will completely focus on the blue soldier who is the symbol of his last futile effort and Sam couldn’t help but disappointed, the other party is too mentally shaken and is not focusing on the red soldiers that are under his tower.
These red soldiers are seriously injured, but they are not dead. Only four blue soldiers are strong enough to stand with some support, in this type of situation, he should have just finished the red soldiers even if it takes the remaining strength of the last four soldiers.
But the soldiers are too distracted due to their injuries to see the slow as a snail, red soldier crawling to the tower and before they knew it, he already touched the tower door and abruptly used all his strength to push it to enter.
Before the blue soldiers could react, everything was over and bright light enveloped the towers, Sam couldn’t help but smirk. He has to say that this is the boring palace of inheritance of all. The first one is full of rounds maybe because there are too many people and the second one is exciting with full battle and the monkey soldiers.
As for this, except for the strategy, there is nothing else. It is more of a test of leadership, logical thinking, wits, decisiveness, and quick thinking. There is nothing much in this test until now.
He expected a little more from the God of war. But his god of war title is not just from his might, the most part is from the way he led his troops and his leadership so it should be understandable.
But it cannot be helped. It is still boring no matter how justifiable Sam thought it would be.
As he was lost in thoughts, Sam once again reappeared in the desolate field and looked at the familiar brown soil and the blue sky.
But this time, there are two more people in the field. One of them is Noah and the other one is the guy with the Spear of the Lightning Spear sect. He might be the chosen candidate of Karthikeya.
He wasn’t completely surprised, but he is a bit impressed by Noah. She came to the finals in the last Palace too and when Noah looked at him, she couldn’t help but curse him under her breath.
She has some sort of hateful relationship with this guy. But that is not to the point of getting revenge or plotting against him, but she felt like he is an eyesore.
Sam didn’t care and waved his hand. The third candidate who both of them don’t have any relation with came forward and spoke to me.
"You must be Sam and you must be Noah. I heard a lot about both of you, particularly you Sam. I am Kumar."
Sam looked at him and chuckled before saying.
"Now that I showed my face, I don’t have to say what superpower I belong to right?"
When Sam said this, Kumar was puzzled for a bit, before exclaiming in surprise.
"You are that guy in Black?"
He clearly remembered the guy in black from the previous Palace of inheritance. At that time, Sam made their whole stay a living hell by using them as bait for the Monkey Warriors and getting rid of them as soon as their purpose was over.
Kumar also understood what Sam is saying. Because he remembered provoking Sam about revealing his face and identity so that he could bash him up after they came out. He felt a little embarrassed about that now.
As the two of them are making small talk after Noah showing no interest in making any, a bright light was shone and Karthikeya’s silhouette appeared once again.
"The three rounds are over and this is the final round between the candidates. Only one of you will move to the next one which is also the last one. But for that, we have to choose one of you and what better way than a simple battle.
No matter how good you are at leading, the subordinates should have enough respect and belief in your to be under your command, and without strength, it would be hard to prove that.
So, battle it out between the three of you to prove your strength. Only one of you has a chance. Do the worst you can. Aim to kill, but don’t worry no one dies here."
As soon as he said those words, his silhouette floated upwards and hovered in the air.
The three candidates are stunned. And All of a sudden, Sam made a move and caught a spear while his body was surrounded by golden flames.
A faint purple smoke rose from them covering the three of them and when the smoke cleared, it could be seen that Sam has caught the hand of Noah with his right hand and the spear of Kumar with his left hand.
Meanwhile, there is a pile of ashes around him.
"Damn it, both of you targeted me directly? Both of you are not even on the speaking terms a few seconds ago and now what sort of tacit understanding is this."
Sam said and when they noticed that the spiritual energy is becoming chaotic around him, Noah threw seed on the ground and a vine grew rapidly before a red fruit ripened at a rapid pace and exploded.
A hot and musky scent and smoke surrounded them and even Sam loosened her hand for a second.
The red smoke is only some sort of numbing agent that reduces the senses and the field of smoke wouldn’t allow any form of spiritual sense, he doesn’t know what this is. But he was impressed.
As for Kumar, he took a simpler approach, he just let go of the spear and took out another one. This spear is made of Black star gold and Sam easily recognized this.
This is one of the spears from the previous Palace of inheritance.
Sam also took a step back from the red smoke and looked at both of them.
"Should I feel happy that you think so highly of me or should I feel sad because I am the first target?"
Both of them didn’t speak and are looking at Sam seriously. They noticed that Sam is still at leisure and didn’t feel any nervousness at all. He is too laid back for a target.
