Sam moved on to the next group and later the next one.
All he did was bait them with shadows of the Nagas. He didn’t form any form of contract with the Naga shadows, he just summoned them. It would take at most the energy of a nascent stage cultivator’s attack to summon them.
Since the contract is not here, he can do whatever he wants.
So, at every position, after he found any Nagas, he would summon the shadow and insert a grenade inside before leaving the shadow near another group.
It is as if Sam is on a lucky streak, as the next five groups clearly pressed the grenades without exception, at least they are little clever than the rest as only a single person would press the grenade a little farther than the group, but it is still useful to restrict the movents of half the group easily.
Only the trick didn’t work for the next group, apparently, they understood that sothing is wrong with the shadows and the gift those shadows left and they didn’t dare press it or store it all they could do is carry it carefully towards the base of the camp.
When two more groups did the sa, Sam didn’t try to make repeat the sa thing, he followed a group and reached the temporary base camp of this battalion. This is the camp for half of the soldiers in the battalion while the remaining half will be rged with the remaining troops.
The battalion commander is issuing commands through various communication tokens as he got the information.
There are still around a hundred soldiers waiting in the base. They seed to be the final group that is trying to struggle.
At this mont, the commander is giving orders for the rest of the groups to retreat. The deputy was extrely puzzled over this and asked.
"Sir, if we retreat now then there would be a huge problem for us in the base, we wouldn’t escape scot-free."
"Who said we are completely retreating? We are regrouping here to greet our guest."
The commander said with a smile.
Deputy grew alert and vigilant, but the commander continued before he could speak.
"The groups are already spread all over the forest, they are spread in such a way that they wouldn’t miss almost any zone of the forests. Last ten minutes, they are in the sa position and they have also spread apart without being a complete group.
Do you think, our guest would let go of such a chance to hunt prey one by one? Of course not, but there is not a single life gone.
That ans, there is only one place he could be and that is the vicinities of the camp.
Now go and activate the formations. We will greet our guest in the grandest scale."
The deputy looked at his boss with confusion and doubt, he doesn’t think that a single guy would be brazen enough to co to their command center, it would be a death wish.
But he still followed orders.
Sam is watching the tents and the soldiers from a tree.
The battalion commander is even sitting in the open, a red-scaled Naga with a blood-colored hue. The color shades are a bit discernable although faintly. He sat in the open in the middle of all tents with a table in front of him.
There are many communication tokens placed on them and there is a layout of the forest that placed on that large table.
He pinned so red-colored flags on the map as if he is trying to mark so places.
Sam doesn’t know what he is doing, neither does he know that his opponent has guessed his existence in this place.
He is busy scanning the whole camp with his eye technique, he wants to see if he can do anything by taking advantage of the layout.
As he thought of what to do, he suddenly felt the energy flow changing and all of a sudden a large formation activation has happened.
At this mont, he saw there is a smaller formation that has appeared on the table of the commander. The energy flow of the larger one and the smaller one are extrely similar.
He imdiately understood what this is. This is remote formation control. This is an advanced thod of controlling large formations with a similar but smaller formation.
It is mostly used in battles at least that is the most popular use.
When Sam looked at the commander’s expression, he knew that his location might have been exposed and he also noticed that all the soldiers are being called back.
He increased the energy in the eye technique and zood in to look at the remote formation.
There are many red dots around and there is one blue dot on it and many red dots are entering the circle far behind the blue dot.
The commander pointed his finger at the blue dot and Sam could feel sothing was off.
He got ready with shadow elental fusion and disappeared from the place, at this mont, the tree he was standing on was vertically cut in the middle and two halves fell on either side.
Sam appeared on the other side and looked at the damage of the attack. He is confident that this attack might not be able to kill him, but he would be either damaged or restrained if he took it directly.
This formation is not for killing, it is for controlling the battle flow by interfering in individual battles.
A controlling formation is very interesting.
Sam imdiately thought of the crystal table. The crystal table is also similar, but it has its own advantages and disadvantages, and advantages beasts the disadvantages by too much.
He didn’t get a chance to use it properly yet, he was really looking forward to it.
As for now, he has to finish this fiasco off before thinking anything else.
He started circulating his eye-technique and looked through the smallest energy flows in the surroundings, he can use the observation ability to achieve a similar effect, but the eye technique is more useful.
His surroundings all looking like a woven cloth of spiritual energy and he can even perceive each thread. Currently, he is looking for the threads that connected the remote formation to the main formation.
After escaping the further attacks a few tis, Sam found the required threads and started thinking of a plan.
The battalion commander is a Pre-transcendent and he would be a bit of trouble. So, he wanted to find a way to send an energy cell his way, but there is a chance that he would die, that is why he is thinking about how to proceed.
But now the commander himself gave him the answer.
Maybe this commander is skilled in using formations to attack, but Sam can do much more than just attack.
When the commander activated one more attack on him, Sam did just dodge this ti, he appeared at an internal node of the formation and tweaked a bit. This is an extrely risky move, but he still did it without any problem.
As soon as he tweaked like that, the sword that should have fallen on his previous position fell on a group of people at the edge of the formation. They are the soldiers of the commander himself and one of them died just like that.
The formation couldn’t tell whether the attack is successful or not, the only reason that this guy knew that Sam is alive because he could see the blue dot once again.
Sam once again reached an altitude to see the commander from afar and noticed that his communication token is glowing.
But the commander didn’t pick up which is a good sign, but the bad sign is that the commander seed to have noticed the disappearance of the other people.
Sam didn’t like this, so he thought of sothing devious and took out all the shadows he summoned earlier but couldn’t use.
All of a sudden, there are more than ten blue dots that appeared out of nowhere in the remote formation and black line appeared on the commander’s face.
He doesn’t know what happened but all of a sudden there are so many enemies on the map and they are moving in different directions frenziedly.
He couldn’t help but feel a bit tense and shouted commands in the communication tokens for the groups to reach the positions of the enemy.
After a few minutes, when he was sure that they are all surrounded, he decided to attack, but Sam who is also surrounded, but still near the internal node is still waiting there.
As soon as the multiple attacks started coming out of the remote formation, Sam tweaked the node one more ti and the next second...
*BOOM*
Sothing unbelievable happened and the commander felt his mind chilled as he fell forward on the remote formation table.
He started sweating profusely as more than ten explosions occurred at the different locations.
All the attacks landed in the shadows just like he thought, but the one that took the brunt of the attacks is not the shadow but the grenades inside and they blasted as soon as the trigger was hit.
The groups around the shadows are all in a ss, except for an attack that has to land on Sam, everything else landed, and that one attack landed on the nearby soldier.
Once again, Sam didn’t stay still, he raised his leg straight into the sky as he concentrated spiritual energy at the hell and slamd an ax kick straight on the internal node and...
*BOOM* another explosion occurred but this ti it is in the middle of the camp and the affected person is the commander alone.
