Sam just ca in ti to watch the head fall on the ground. He looked at the Wight commander, but didn’t stop there. He just went in to see What position his friends are in.
There are no serious injuries and everyone managed to stand up. Jack is the only one who fainted due to blood loss.
Sam fed so wine to him and left his care to the rest of his friends after he confird there is no critical damage.
He is really relieved they managed to survive for a while. He didn’t think that soone would find this place this fast, he thought he was prepared. But from the looks of it the preparation was not enough.
He finally has ti to think about the people that entered this place. As for the sudden attack Jack used, he would think about it later.
Sam clearly saw the Wight commander who is currently standing at the entrance with nervous expression but he didn’t make a move against him instead he looked at the corner of the cave where it is darkest and said.
"Are you coming out or should I make you do it?"
He clearly felt this extra presence as soon as he ca in. He used the energy vision to check the situation with the formations and accidentally found this extra presence which is not visible for the naked eye.
The specter ca out and looked at Sam in a bit of surprise.
"I didn’t want to bother with the specters since we don’t have any particular enmity, can I take this as a provocation?"
"No , no. I don’t want to get involved. This is just business for ."
He said as he waved his hands, but Sam didn’t bother with his answer and looked at the Wight commander.
"How are you doing? It’s been a while and it seems like you still haven’t changed at all."
Sam looked at him condescendingly as he walked forward.
The Wight commander rembered the nightmare he has gone through back in the Banished realm and couldn’t help but take a step back. He tripped on a rock and fell backwards and still tried to crawl away as Sam neared him.
Sam just extended his hand and three blood mutant scales ca out of his storage and revolved around his hand.
This made the Wight commander rember the past trauma and wanted to escape.
But this ti, Sam is prepared, with a wave of his hand three scales shot forward and two of them directly stabbed into the two arms and started spinning rapidly as they cut through the flesh not giving any chance for the arms to move while the third one circled his body and started slicing everywhere it could reach.
Sam lunged forward, took out the reaper and stabbed it into his throat, but he didn’t go too deep and only pierced into the first layer of the skin.
He used his leg to crush the arms and poured so green liquid over them and then recalled the scales back.
"Try to heal this and escape."
Sam just left him in the place and let him groan and whine in pain before turning back to the Specter.
"So, now tell why you are here?"
"I am just here with him because of a deal. I didn’t even want to be here. I was forced." The specter imdiately defended himself.
Sam’s arm turned golden as he shot a light beam towards a direction and a Black semi-transparent figure fell down while the image of the specter in front of him disappeared.
Sam walked towards the real specter and asked.
"Now tell , why you are here?"
"I just ca to tag along. That is it. I don’t have anything to do with the attack."
"So you are saying that you don’t have any involvent in finding this place?"
"No."
"No involvent in defusing my traps?"
"No."
"No involvent in attacking this place?"
"No."
"I am really getting cocky and dumb along with the ti. I am forgetting to calculate the variables that I didn’t co into contact with. I should have also spent more ti on this formation. I just got too sure since I started believing in others."
Sam muttered to himself as he looked at the specter and said.
"I never thought, I would be using these techniques this fast."
As he spoke a black light covered his arm and he extended it towards the specter. The dark elental energy enveloped the specter and made him twitch in so kind of pain. The energy circulated through the body of the specter and made him feel the soul searing pain.
Soon a small mark appeared on the forehead of the specter and then only Sam retracted his arm.
"I didn’t want to ss with the specters at first, that is why I didn’t add anything to the vines that could harm you. But here you are ssing with my plans, so it can’t be avoided. You are now mine. I read that Specters make good formation spirits and they can even be used for temporary use.
I would definitely make good use of you."
With that he waved his hand and the specter disappeared from the sight.
Sam went back to the Wight commander who is still struggling and took out the chess board.
"You would beco a good chess piece with your commanding, I really regretted when I let you go last ti, now you are back so I am not going to miss this chance."
With that he captured him and relaxed for the mont.
He started repairing the cave and inscriptions on the wall. Even though this is a temporary asure, it still works, just like it did now.
While he was repairing the cave, Jack finally woke up.
"What happened to you? What is the sword energy?" Philip asked as soon as Jack ca to his senses.
Jack looked around and heaved a sigh of relief and said.
"I was conscious the whole ti, but I guess the sword energy I took might have been too much for to digest and increase my cultivation imdiately, so I decided to slowly increase my cultivation as I comprehend the sword art that was bestowed to by that man.
But only later did I realize that the art only works after I reach the Consummate realm. It wouldn’t be useful as much and my body wouldn’t be able to take it.
So, I stayed in a ditative state to balance that energy and store it within my body but later I realized it is impossible as the energy is too tyrannical and would have destroyed my body if I just forcefully stored it, so I decided to figure out a way and if not I wanted to expel the excess energy.
Since everyone even decided to use their protection trinkets, I thought I have wasted enough ti and used that sword energy to kill him. The protection items are too precious even if they are only useful in this undead realm. That is why I gave this unstable energy which is putting on a passive side away.
But manipulating the energy forcefully made feel the backlash and my skin was torn apart.
That is gist of what happened."
Sam who heard from the side heaved a sigh of relief and said.
"Rest for today, tomorrow we will be making the move. We would first use the traps in the forest of dying and them move out towards the Undying volcano which is closest to the Vampire territory. If things go according to the plan we can move further and spread the vine there and if it didn’t go we can lure the enemies towards the forest of dying which by them would be the largest vine host.
Since Jack has recovered we will celebrate tonight and if anyone has any trouble use the transference scroll in this direction and return to the cave.
If everything goes well, the whole forest of dying will be our best cover and the undead races wouldn’t be able to enter this unless the specters co. I would think of sothing that could handle the specters by the ti we move out."
While Sam is explaining this, what he doesn’t know is that his plan has already took a different turn than what he has anticipated.
Within the undying volcanic region. The volcano has a lot of vines around it as they are growing rapidly. Here there was not even need for the creatures to feed themselves to the vines.
The whole magma is actually doing a good job supplying the required nutrients and every minutes there are at least three flowers are blooming increasing the pollen and then increasing the vines rapidly.
But that is not even the problem, the vines actually spread into the volcano. Now inside the stomach of the volcano there are so flowers blooming and the dark smoke that is coming out of the volcano managed to carry the pollen out and created a cloud in the sky.
The black cloud moved towards the vampire territory along with the wind and disappeared there dropping the pollen grains within the city.
