Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer
chapter-226

For the next day, Sam is fully busy in room 2 and room 3.

This time, he carefully collected whatever that he needed from those two rooms and went to the fourth room in which he spent the next day.

After that, he is completely satisfied with his plans as he tested them time and again in the first four rooms.

Finally, the next day it is time to go and deal with the bigger threat.

The fifth room.

As soon as he entered the room, Sam met with the familiar looking wooden puppet.

There is no difference between first puppet and this one all of them look one and the same. The only difference he noticed is the density of the wood used and the blue glowing thing that inside the puppet.

The rest including the structure and appearance are same in all five puppets.

Sam immediately made a move without waiting for the puppet to attack first.

He went straight towards the puppet without any tricks and struck himself to the body of the puppet.

He hugged it as if his life was depended on it and didn't show any signs of letting go.

The puppet started waving its hands and hitting Sam on his back, but Sam didn't budge.

He closed his eyes as he endured the beating. The feather coat showed its extreme competence, although it took most of the damage, the shock from every hit is still doing some damage on Sam's back.

But Sam didn't care about this, because his mind is working on full speed as he concentrated on the puppets body.

He is using the observation on the puppets body as he looked at each and every component that is making the puppet run.

As he took the beating Sam coughed up some blood but he didn't stop at all.

And soon enough, one of the puppet's arm stopped working and it hung like limp limb to the body. But this is just the beginning, within next two minutes the other arm was also limped and the hits reduced.

The puppet laid on the ground rolling around trying to shake off Sam, but Sam is doing something else.

In his observatory vision, he is watching the glowing object in the chest of the puppet and he could see that there is a thin thread of spiritual energy connecting the puppet to the room.

There is also a spiritual energy imprint on the object just like the previous puppets.

Sam concentrated on the spiritual imprint which is acting as the joint between the room and the object and started destabilizing it.

The spiritual imprint is just like a signature of a person. A person lays his spiritual imprint by using his spiritual energy and spiritual sense.

The spiritual imprint itself is a form of inscription except the ink is replaced by the spiritual energy and it consumes the atmospheric spiritual energy to exist in a self-sustaining way.

Sam is not extremely knowledgeable about these imprints, but he knew a little bit.

Generally, an imprint can only be erased by a person who is of same strength or of superior strength than the person who laid the imprint.

Clearly, the one who laid the imprint on the puppet is not someone who Sam can compare to at the moment, at least in the aspect of strength. But he figured out another way.

His innate abilities of the spiritual core.

No matter what, the spiritual imprint is essentially a form of spiritual energy and as long as it is spiritual energy, Sam can do whatever he wants if he can find a way to destabilise it and he succeeded in doing so.

And soon, the puppet started slowing down as the imprint slowly disintegrated. And the thread connecting the object and the room was disconnected. As if it was the cue, Sam put the whole wooden puppet inside the dimension.

After two seconds of silence, Sam's winning was announced and the door opened.

His back was still aching and the blood he puked was still on his mouth, but there was an extremely satisfying grin on Sam's face.

He got what he wanted and he is happy.

He sat down in between the corridor as he healed himself before walking towards the fourth floor.

In the fourth floor, there are no traces of people. Very few people are qualified to enter the fourth floor and even Jack and Philip might not be qualified.

Nicholas might have a chance.

Sam looked at the surroundings and there are no markings indicating any information about this floor.

He opened the first door and went inside.

As soon as he entered, he saw two other people inside but they are not from the thunder god temple or any other empires under the jurisdiction of the temple.

They are people from other areas.

There is a plat form in the centre of the room and the two people are standing on either side of it.

There was a hologram floating in the air showing an attack of lightning element.

He took a step forward to observe it closer and a string of words popped up on the familiar holographic screen.

"The person who can stay on the platform for a whole day will get enlightenment and the required knowledge to perform the technique.

But the condition is that only one person can stay on the platform, and as soon as another person comes on to the platform, the previous person has to start a fresh and the time he spent on the platform previously will not be taken into account.

The most important thing is that only one person can attain the technique and after that the platform will be useless.

The candidates can use any method to stay on the platform and there would be no casualties as the injured ones will be protected by the palace and they would be safe from any life-threatening situation.

But once the palace intervenes the person who was saved will be eliminated and cannot enter the same room."

After those words, the screen disappeared again.

Sam looked at the two candidates who also looked at him.

The three of them are exchanging glances, now he understood why the two of them didn't make a move at all.

The first person to step on the stage, will be attacked and they might lose the chance to get the technique.

Even though, not everyone is a lightning user, one had to know that these people came from the other powers which are as strong as the thunder god temple and all of these people are against each other.

Sam is pretty sure that these guys had a briefing in which their elders said that they should make the other powers lose the treasures even if they fail to get them.

The first three floors have nothing much to do as all the prizes and the recipients of the prizes are kept in dark. So, they cannot interfere much.

But now that there are some variables which they can control by their own interference, they wouldn't give up.

Sam looked at the hologram and then at the two people, he was about to say something when the door opened and another candidate came and as if they are previously agreed up on a time, in the next hour many candidates entered the room.

There are total thirty candidates who came into the room as if they are all called up on here.

Out of them, from thunder god temple area has Sam, Arthur, Arman, Nicholas and another candidate which he doesn't know the name of but he is also from another empire.

Sam doesn't know why all these candidates appeared in this room. They could have gone to another room if they see the first room occupied.

Sam walked towards Nicholas and asked.

"Why are all of you here? Aren't there other rooms?"

"We tried, they are not opening only this room gave access, I think the next room will open only if this room is cleared."

Sam stayed silent for a second and asked.

"Are you interested in this technique?"

"Nope. It is not useful to me, why? You want this?"

"No, I just wanted to confirm."

"I might not be interested in the technique, but I am interested in a battle though."

"Well, I can give you a chance then."

After that, Sam walked towards the platform and sat on it.

The candidates surrounding the platform immediately became alert, but nobody made a move immediately and finally the one who made a move was the participant from another area.

He is not a lightning user, but he thought that Sam might be one and their aim is to not let the other teams get the technique, so he made.

An Ice spear came flying towards Sam, but Sam simply caught it with two fingers and threw it towards another participant who is the team mate of the first attacker who is also about to attack.

The spear, impaled itself into that person's shoulder, stopping him from chanting a spell.

Seeing Sam's nonchalant attitude, more and more people started getting riled up and the attacks started coming.

Only the people from the thunder god temple side are not attacking.

But Sam, didn't show any signs of fear or panic. He took out the reaper sword and swung it in the air. The sword light emerged with the wind and sliced the other party's throat.

But just as the blood was about spurt out of the wound, a blue light emerged as it surrounded the person making him instantly disappear.

The attacks suddenly stopped. Nobody dared to move, because there is no one who is going to make a move first.

From the earlier attack, they understood Sam is strong, even though some of them are strong enough to provide him a good fight and even have confidence in defeating him, they would still be at a disadvantage.

Even if they do defeat Sam, they won't be able to escape the situation unscathed, so the remaining people will take them down.

Sam exactly believed in this situation and confidently made a move forward.

But that doesn't mean, no one is having any motives. Some people who came here as a team are discussing a remedy for the situation, but before they could speak, Sam beat them to it.

"To be honest, I don't have any interest in this technique as I am not a lightning user and I don't belong to any of the powers, so I don't have any interest in power struggles either. So, I have a proposition.

I will let the person who pays me take the seat and I will guard them for the whole time period. All I need is a good amount of spiritual stones and you will get yourselves the chance to access this platform."

The whole room became silent. They didn't know how to respond.

Sam looked at the group who are confused and smiled to Nicholas. Nicholas also understood what Sam is doing.

Since, he didn't have any use for these battle techniques, he is using this for making money.

Sam decided that every moment shall be his opportunity. After all, he has to stay so long in this place.
