Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer
-
chapter-1160
Sam is looking at the scene with a bit of surprise and amusement. He didn't expect that there is this kind of system in Black Ghosts, he was also surprised by how many people infiltrated the branch of the puppet organization.
If Sam had this many insiders in the puppet branch, he would already destroy the branch and would have already been on the way towards the next location.
While Sam is looking at the situation with interest, Markan looked at the black ghost members with a sweeping glance.
Every one of them stood straight without moving. But there are a few people who have different expressions on their faces.
One of them couldn't hold back anymore and said."Lord Markan has pronounced dead in action a few years ago." He didn't say anything else and didn't even ask any questions, but his intention was clear. He is doubting Markan's identity.
But Markan didn't bother to answer with words, instead, he extended his hand and six elemental energies slowly gathered at the tip of his fingers. Then he slammed the palm into the ground and a hexagram appeared around him with six elemental energies.
When the Black Ghost members looked at this, their eyes widened in surprise and delight. But of course, the members that worked with puppet organizations have ugly expressions.
"Get back and execute the orders. And the people who mediated between the Golem sect and the puppet organization, you would need to answer to the Enforcement department on why you joined forces with them and battled."
He then paused and pointed at the strongest of the bunch and said.
"I command you with my authority as the administrator, take them back and make sure the trial is conducted."
The Black ghost member saluted and they all made their move. The mediators didn't resist. They are not stupid enough to do so and obediently follow.After they left, Markan looked at Sam and explained.
"This is one of the specialties of the Black Ghost organization. Even though some of the high-level powers know of this, they don't understand what exactly this signifies.
The Hexagram insignia is a symbol of authority of the Black Ghost members and only high-level administrators hold this. Even though I am the leader of the organization now, my authority is only second to him.
Once this insignia is shown, all the black ghost members nearby should come and visit that place. If any member hid and didn't show up and they were stupid enough to be noticed by any other black ghost member they would be dead meat as the grand elders themselves would put a hit on him.
So, they didn't have a choice and came here to take orders."
Sam nodded in understanding. It seems like running an organization like a cult has its advantages. But Sam would never be able to bring himself to run his organization like that. After all, what he is mostly after is not the combat strength of his followers, rather their brains and all kinds of skills without discrimination. He needs free minds that could think, innovate and develop. Not some 'yes men who would do anything without thinking.
He just nodded at Markan, but suddenly he remembered something and asked.
"Is there another way to get out of this realm? Or are they going to go through the wormhole of the city?"
"No, the black ghosts wouldn't use the main wormhole, they would go on a roundabout way. If my information is not wrong, there is a wormhole in a city to the north that leads to a planet which has a connection to an outer realm, so they might take that route."
Sam nodded and went back into the ice divine dimension, to discuss the next plan with the team.
The connections between different realms are complicated as he doesn't know how these wormholes connecting different realms happened to be present. And most of the time the wormholes are all present side by side even conveniently far enough from each other to construct a building.
He didn't meet someone that could explain this to him either. But it is not his problem for now. He just asked this because, if the Black ghost members went through the city, he would have them do something for him, but since they are not he didn't bother.
After an hour, Sam finally came back once again and looked for any flesh golems in the surroundings and made contact with Arkiv.
"So, how is the situation in the city?"
"It is in curfew. Except for the handpicked city guards at the gates and walls, none of the other troops are allowed to leave the residence. They are afraid that the mole who planted the explosion at the entrance might do something crazy again."
"Then, their guess is right. You guys are about to do something crazy this time.
Send Kiran out in disguise and make him set up the small energy cells at different spots around the city wall. I want the nodes of the barrier formation to crumble.
Send First young master to the core area with an excuse…"
Sam went on and gave instructions to the three of them.
Currently, the first young master is staying in a residence outside the estate. That is also the reason why they managed to set up the explosion.
After receiving Sam's instructions, he took out a communication token and contacted the third young master. Currently, the third young master is the only one in the estate he could make contact with.
"Brother three. I think I know who the traitor is."
He immediately went to the point and the third young master was shocked when he heard this.
"Brother One. This is not something to joke about."
"I know brother three. I know for sure. I saw the destruction of two branches. I am very sure what the consequences would be. That is why I am afraid. I think one of my subordinates is the traitor."
The third young master was stunned.
"What did you say?"
"Yes, I think one of my subordinates is the traitor. In fact, I think it is someone disguised as my subordinate. I just found out a formation disc in the subordinate's room beside the window. This disc created the holographic projection of my subordinate, but the actual person is nowhere to be seen. I think he went out. He also knocked out my other subordinate.
I am afraid of what that person might be capable of doing and I couldn't contact anyone else other than you."
When the third young master heard this, he felt an immense sense of dread. He witnessed the explosion clearly and he knew exactly how powerful it is. If something like that happens in the core areas of the city, things would be extremely dangerous.
"Brother One. I will send a special team to escort you to the estate. Be careful and bring that formation disc with you. I will inform the branch leader."
"Please hurry up."
With that, the communication was cut off.
Arkiv sitting beside him smiled and said.
"Be careful, the situation is extremely dangerous. As soon as the barrier explodes use the transference scroll. They wouldn't be able to stop you. I will set down the rest of the traps."
"Are you sure you can set them all up?"
"I don't need to go to each and every place myself. I am an archer. I have my ways. Anyway, the current curfew is perfect for this."
With that Arkiv laid down on the bed and acted as if he was unconscious.
Soon, they sensed someone coming over and the first young master immediately went to the door.
They looked at Arkiv who is lying on the bed inside.
"Let him rest. I already gave him medicine. But he seems to be in a coma. I cannot wake him up now."
The other party nodded and didn't bother bringing Arkiv.
After they left, Arkiv woke up and took out his bow. He took out some special arrows and started tying up the small liquid energy cells to the shafts. He then went to the nearest window and shot the arrow to a building far away.
Since there is a curfew, the patrols are few and far in between and he is using a special method to conceal the sound of the arrows and he is not aiming at people. This is mostly target practice to him.
He went to different windows and shot at different buildings and roads from different angles. He covered a large distance and managed to empty out all the liquid energy cells.
Meanwhile, the first young master successfully entered the core area and met with the branch leader and the rest of the people in the meeting. They were discussing the departure of the Black ghosts and how this would affect their war.
But then the third young master came with the news given by the first young master. They immediately sent people to search for Kiran and wanted to capture him.
But Kiran is currently sneaking around while changing disguises and dropping liquid energy cells and he already reached the nearest city wall.
