The mares of Diodes.
The four mares eat flesh and are crazy for killing. That was the story in the human world.
Sam doesn’t if there is a change in the story or not, but there are a lot more details that were missed off and one of them is that the four horses do not just eat flesh and drink blood and they are most certainly not crazy.
It is just that they are possessive of their territory and they are extrely strong. Stronger to the point that it would seem unfair that an animal that was always only fit for a steed could possibly have the strength to compete with the apex predators.
The other thing is that the four horses are of different elents and have different abilities.
One of them has abilities of Water and Fire combined, the second one with the wind and lightning, the third one with the Darkness and Light, the last one with the tal and earth.
These are just basic elents, but their constitutions gave them further gifts.
The one in front of Sam is definitely a descendant of the third mare of Diodes.
It is a Black mare with a healthy mane. But there is a tallic tint to the color of both the mane and the skin and at the sa type, one could feel the sturdiness of solid rock just by looking at the beast.
The special ability it has is not just a fusion of earth and tal, but also another thing that was hard to control for even many experts. Gravity and Magnetism.
Most of the people who control gravity do so with the Earth elent and it is actually quite artificial to be called pure control of the Gravitational force.
But this horse is the real deal and the things it can do when it fully matured can be the worst nightmares for any expert. It can influence gravity and tackle all forms of spatial attacks, even the surrounded space can fracture due to its influence over these two forces, and it or rather she can directly defend herself even in the face of a black hole.
But her pros are not without any cons. The main drawback in this race is that the bloodline and the genes could only be passed down to mares. There are no studs with the sa bloodline, at least the complete bloodline, and the mare would always try to birth a mare so that their legacy could continue. This also led them to the situation where the bloodline started thinning. There are so beasts that have the thickest and purest bloodlines, but most have them have one common problem.
The mares will also inherit so of the genes of the stud horse of another species that they mated with and this makes their bloodline impure and thin.
Sam looked at the mare in front of him with an excited and anticipatory gaze.
She has Black ink-like eyes as she looked at the intruders with an angry expression.
Sam looked at the eyes directly and kept on thinking about the mare.
She has the thin bloodline of the mares, and the only advantage is that she doesn’t have any influence on the other horse species that her mother mated with.
Sam was quite satisfied though. Anything that can be related to bloodline can be solved. That Ling Tian or rather The Gambler did give him great knowledge regarding that. Increasing the thickness of the Bloodline is a rather easy task if the beast is of the sa level.
Sam turned to his temporary partners and said.
"I don’t want any spoils from this trip. But that horse is mine. Don’t attack it."
With those words, Sam took a step forward.
The horse looked at him nacingly as the surrounding gravity increased. Sam felt a brunt of force trying to push him down. But he used the sheer force of his body and muscles to stand straight and still walked forward, in fact, his speed increased a lot.
The gravity didn’t increase, these mares wouldn’t just try to kill the enemies with gravity. It is just a way for them to hinder the enemies within a certain range so that they can kill them directly and more easily.
The Horse ran towards Sam and opened its maw as it wanted to bite him down.
Sam dodged to the side with difficulty as he was not completely used to his gravity. Even though he stayed in the Vronti for a while, the gravity here is more forceful and dangerous.
So, he wasn’t able to take initiative imdiately and just dodged for a second.
He activated wind elental fusion and jumped up, his body felt lighter and he was not as hindered as before. He made a move and managed to make a small nick on the body of the horse. It is too sturdy.
Sam mostly floated in the air. Even though his main goal is to create a contract, he didn’t start with peacefully talking. Because these horses are extrely prideful. They would never have a peaceful talk with soone who ca into their territory.
The intruder has to prove themselves first, before any topic of conversation could be raised. But not many people can do that. That is the reason they were portrayed as crazy and bloodthirsty horses.
The fight was going on intensely. The horse and man clashed many tis, but there was not a particular advantage to anyone.
Sam frowned. He has used wind elent, lightning elent, and water elent, he even tried to use darkness and shadow elent. He also used swords and staff, the only things left are fire elents, the light elent, and the claws.
He wouldn’t use claws, those are for when he is angry. As for the light elent, he felt like it might cause so serious damage and there would be no chance of peaceful talk.
He still has combos he has yet to use, but most of them wouldn’t work as the horse is extrely good at earth defense.
The worst part is the horse can walk in the air. It is not exactly walking in the air, rather she is using gravity to run in the air like that and made it even worse for Sam.
As he was thinking to use the more dangerous attacks, the mare stopped and looked at Sam as she neighed.
[Who are you?]
Sam doesn’t know if the mare felt like Sam could understand her, but she still tried and called for him.
"I am Sam. Nice to et you."
Sam said and the horse was clearly surprised a bit, before neighing continuously.
[You can understand ? That is good. Then why are you here? What are your intentions?] This horse is more intelligent than many beasts Sam has t and seen.
"I am here to make a deal and also stop this beast tide."
[Deal? I don’t easily trust humans.]
"But I am not a complete human," Sam replied as he released his aura.
[Why do you think, I am talking to you right now?]
The next few minutes, there is an intense argunt between both of them as Sam explained what he expected from the mare and what the mare could expect in return. He even let the shadow mouse and Sky out. He really felt like he should have brought Yanwu and the rest with him.
But these two managed to make the Beast think.
[Bloodline refinent first and if you succeed, then I would think about making the contract.]
Sam was about to agree when he felt so aura and instincts screaming at him.
Before he could react, so roots shot out from the surroundings and started tangling him in a rapid pace.
The sa thing happened to the horse and both of them are struggling constantly.
But the more they struggled the weaker they beca as they could feel the roots and vines sucking their spiritual energy.
Sam activated his eye technique as he looked around and found a group of people. The five mbers from the Elite ten.
Four of them placed their hands on the back of the last one who has closed his eyes and is clearly emitting the wood elental energy waves.
He understood their ploy. They are slowly making their way forward and soon they are also in the battle-field.
Sam looked at him and regretted not killing them earlier. He closed his cald down and said coldly.
"If you don’t release both of us now, you would be wishing for instant death. I will give you one chance to correct yourselves."
Sam started thinking rapidly while he gave out a threat. The five of them looked at him mockingly as they turned their attention to the mare.
"If sothing happens to her, then death would be a salvation no matter how painful it is."
They only sneered and one of them raised his hand to attack the horse.
Sam looked at them coldly and his body surged with energy. The vines are absorbing all elental energies in their purest form, even light elent and dark elent are not an exception, what if they are altered a bit.
That is what he did, he converted all the energy into a dark elent and turned it into death energy he used to raise undead. He started injected the death energy rapidly as he could slowly feel the withering vines, but the process is too slow and the attack was already in progress.
"Stop it." Sam yelled as he freed his hand.
The person who trapped them noticed Sam’s reign going free and imdiately increased the vines, but he is also feeling the backlash of the death energy being injected.
"Finish them off both quickly. I will hold on for so ti."
The four of them removed their hands and walked in pairs towards Sam and the mare.
Sam beca angry, he is beyond enraged as his whole body suddenly turned golden and he transford into a golden light beam. He spat out of a mouthful of blood as he forcefully severed himself away from the vines.
His body shot light beams all over and lasers started cutting the vines.
The two people near his terrified and were about to step back. But Sam is not looking at them, he looked at the mare which just suffered a severe sword strike right through its belly where the skin is weakest.
"ARRGGGG."
*NEEEEIIIIIIIIIGGGGGHHHH*
Sam’s angry roar and the painful scream of the mare ca at the sa ti, Sam shot like a laser beam towards them, but the pair already got ready to escape. One of them is even lucky enough, but the other was not.
Sam chopped his hand like a blade straight to his neck and his palm just moved smoothly to another side.
Sam didn’t even stop at that guy as he knelt near the mare and started treating her as the head of that guy separated from the body and fell.
