chapter-154
Sam didn't say anything immediately and just looked at the Regiment commander as if he was thinking about it.
The Regiment commander thought that Sam was afraid and he started egging him.
"What now, Sam? Aren't you all powerful and claimed that the army is full of trash, why don't you prove it? If you don't then, get ready to face martial law."
Sam took a deep breath and looked at the Regiment commander with an expression as if he was hesitating.
"I have two conditions.""What are they?" Regiment commander is quite sure that Sam is going to propose some impossible condition, so that he can back off without losing much face.
"I want ten times the wager, and my bet is ten million spirit stones."
When the Regiment commander heard this, he confirmed his earlier theory of the conditions. After all, the 100 million spirit stones, is not a small amount and it is more than the annual budget of their regiment.
But he felt that since Sam is trying to back down, he should make it harder for him. He is quite confident that Sam is not going to take the fight.
"Deal, what is the next condition?" Regiment commander agreed. Sam gave a surprised expression and there is some panic flashed in his eyes, which made regiment commander happier.
Sam started looking around as if he is nervous and hesitating and his movements are rather exaggerated, but the regiment commander didn't feel so.
After a brief pause, Sam finally opened his mouth again."The second condition is lifting up the no killing restriction."
When everyone heard these words, they were stunned for a second before thinking if Sa was crazy or pretending to be crazy.
Removing No killing restriction in this case will only make it worse for Sam in this situation.
Although, the soldiers felt shameful and humiliated, they are quite confident that Sam wouldn't last a minute against the battalion.
So, when they heard that Sam is asking for lifting the restriction on killing, they thought he went nuts and take a couple of them with him in a suicidal attack.
Even the Regiment commander thought the same way, but after some thought, he found a long-winded reason on why Sam would say that. And that would be Sam trying to use the no killing policy of the military to escape the predicament.
When they said the rules to Sam's batch, they didn't mention anything about killing and death duels. So, might be thinking that they don't have such arrangement and the military might not want to change the rules for a single fight.
Even though, the reason was long-winded, that was the only thing he could relate to the condition. Even the deputy General thought so.
Sam's nervous face only made him feel all the more so and the regiment commander didn't want to let go of this opportunity to put down Sam, he thought that situation is already in his favour and ready to put down Sam, in case he would try to pull some kind of stunt like this again.
"I agree."
When Sam heard these words, his face was full of shock and nervousness. His expression was as if he didn't know what to do anymore. After some pause, Sam asked.
"Can I use all my weapons?"
The Regiment commander didn't even think much and just agreed. As far he was concerned, Sam is bound to back off, when the time really came to fight.
"As…assemble your team. But there shouldn't be any great realm cultivators. Sam stuttered and his gaze was all over the place.
This nervous wreck of him was making it obvious to them, that he is just trying to save his face and they thought that he might be thinking that someone would definitely not let this fight happen, since it is so unfair.
After more than ten minutes the battalion was assembled in a training ground. Sam stood in front of 500 people and looked at the Regiment commander nervously.
After seeing that the regiment commander was clearly content, he knew that his plan worked.
All of a sudden, his nervous expression was gone. He is back to his usual confident self was back. He looked at the Regiment commander with a smirk.
Regiment commander suddenly became tense, he had a feeling that he walked into a trap and actually, his guess was right.
Sam really did lay a trap. Otherwise, wouldn't he be letting them off too easily.
He went against a three hundred people alone without using all his weapons. Now, even though he has to go against five hundred people, he can use all his gadgets and he didn't even have to use all of them to deal with these guys.
Deputy General also observed the change and he also felt surprised but he didn't show it on his face, rather he waved his hand as he commenced the fight.
"Start."
Sam immediately moved. But he didn't dive into the crowd, the soldiers are still a bit surprised that Sam hasn't backed down.
They are quite confident of it after all. With their expertise, it is quite difficult to notice the difference in Sam's demeanour in that small period of time.
Before they knew it, Sam is on the Harbinger, floating more than twenty feet in the air.
He smirked at the crowd and took out the Golden Crescent.
When the soldiers saw it, they couldn't help but become tense.
They fought aerial enemy, but those enemies are bird type beasts which are big in size. Their only option at that time are mostly the long-range attacks.
Because of the beast's large size, they even have some chance in attacking by jumping up in the air.
But Sam is completely different from all those scenarios.
He is small, fast, agile, spontaneous. They have to count their lucky stars.
Sam didn't make the first move, he just looked at the crowd spontaneously. Today is the day the world will know why he named his board as Harbinger.
It is Harbinger of the destruction and calamity.
The soldiers started throwing the fireballs, water spears, wind blades. All kinds of attacks are being thrown at him.
But Sam is moving too fast. After a couple of volleys, Sam finally started attacking.
He moved his front foot a bit forward and the toes touched a small protrusion.
A small groove opened in the front part of the board.
Then the board tilted a bit towards front as the groove was pointed in the direction of the soldiers.
With a cold smile on his face, Sam made his first attack.
A blue flame flashed over the groove with the sound of a small explosion as a small thin and sharp metallic disc was shot out of the groove.
It is practically invisible for most of the crowd and they only saw it when one of them reminded.
"Ahhhhh…." And that reminder is the cry of a soldier.
Some of them could vaguely see a small circular disc was pierced into his soldier and before they could see it clearly.
"BOOM." An explosion took away the whole arm completely from the shoulder. The arm was gone in the form of bloody mist.
The soldier didn't even have time to scream as he was completely fainted. If one couldn't observe the small movement of his chest, due to weak breathing they would consider him dead.
This is one of Sam's addition to the harbinger. A small metallic disc which was shot with the propulsion caused by the methane.
It is not dangerous. But the small formation that was placed on it is dangerous.
That formation is called Explosion trap formation.
It is used for trapping enemies and the formation will be activated once anyone enters it.
Actually, the formation's rank is not more than rank 2. And it is not that much preferable if one wants to create a lot of damage.
Simply put, both the disc and the formation doesn't work on these people individually.
But when they put them together, the situation is different.
Sam activated the formation and shot the disc. The speed of the disc is enough to penetrate an enemy within fifty feet radius before activation.
So, after it entered the skin, the explosion occurs from the inside.
The damage is not simply 1+1=2
If Sam targeted the chest area or any other vitals, the person would be dead.
While the deputy general and the regiment commander are thinking about this and the uses it could bring to the military, Sam didn't stop.
While moving swiftly in the air, Sam didn't stay in a spot for more than one second.
He is like the king of the sky moving and avoiding all kinds of attacks thrown at him while he shot the discs as well as the arrows from the golden crescent.
Him having the control of the wind flow with his wind elemental control didn't help the soldiers either. The situation is completely one sided.
Some of the soldiers tried to make attacks by jumping in surprise, but they were shot by the arrows before they could jump for more than ten feet.
Even if some attacks really did make their way towards Sam, the Harbinger started glowing slightly and the attacks are almost nullified. There is not much damage being done to Sam at all.
"BATTLE FORMATIONS."
The regiment commander wasn't able to control himself and immediately gave a command.
