Sam couldn't hold back for a second and almost burst out laughing. Seeing him like that, Yodha too stopped fooling around.

"I am sorry, I would be like that when I am pissed."

"Don't worry about it," Sam replied and started walking out of the camp.

"Where are you going?"

"Of course to carry out the mission."

"Are you a fool, there would be half of the battalion waiting for you, if you go now."

"Just wait and see."

With that, Sam didn't listen to him anymore and started walking, all this while many soldiers and company commanders are looking at him with pity and ridicule.

Sam exited the camp and started moving towards the forest, after walking for a certain distance and making sure that no one is nearby, he took out the harbinger and started hovering with his speed increasing drastically.

This time, he didn't control the board directly though, he is playing the flute with his eyes closed as the hoverboard took him towards his destination at a moderate pace, without any signs of a rush. He looked calm and collected.

After an hour, he reached the vicinities of the forest. As he stood on the board near the entrance, he could feel all the gazes on him. At this moment, he not wearing the feather coat, instead, he is wearing the basic soldier uniform of the army, so he could sense the hostility from them.

Sam didn't just enter the forest directly, he just hovered around the entrance of the forest, as if he is looking for something.

Meanwhile, the soldiers lying in the ambush are talking between themselves non-stop. The soldiers in the outermost vicinity spotted Sam when he was a mile away. They reported this to their superiors immediately.

The reaction is that everyone is angry that their enemy's army is looking down on them to the point, they sent a single person to this critical point of the border. If they cross this forest, they will encounter a path that is directly connected to the base and it is even hard to lay an ambush in this path.

So, they should have really taken this seriously.

Sam is still hovering around the border without a care that he pissed off all the soldiers inside. By this time, everyone in the forest knew that he came alone.

He wouldn't have cared even if he knew.

After some constant movement, Sam finally picked an entry point and he zoomed fast into the forest.

He did all this because he doesn't want to enter the forest where the soldiers already lay in the ambush. There would be no fun if all the enemies could see him coming and know his whereabouts from the start.

That is why he hid his presence and snuck into the forest.

He let out a Bee-Puppet and started and let them fly as he took out a tablet and started seeing the scenes.

The Bee puppets' specialty is that they wouldn't be a sense that easily, unless they are particularly sending the spiritual senses and find an anomaly, they wouldn't be able to observe its existence without their eyes, after all, they wouldn't get the sense of someone observing them just like how Sam got, through a machine.

As the Bee puppets circled around the vicinities, Sam is looking for any traces left by the enemies.

Sam even checked the area with his eye technique to see any energy remnants left behind by the enemies or the energy waves coming from the hidden soldiers.

After two minutes of searching, Sam finally found some traces on the screen through the puppet.

He changed his course and started moving towards it.

A human with a red skin tone is crouching on a tree that is what Sam could see on the screen.

He closed his eyes for a brief second to give a command to the puppet.

The Bee puppet's crystal eyes glowed and it changed its position a bit, before aiming the sharp tail towards the person. The puppet's tail has some rune marking over it and they are glowing incessantly with a lot of spiritual energy and it disappeared with a small explosive sound with a blue flash appeared from the now remaining hollow tube point.

Within no time, a new sharp tail appeared in the previous position.

Meanwhile, the person who was shot by it fell off the tree and laid dead on the ground. There is a hole on the side of his neck, that is spewing blood and a branch of the tree was impaled by a sharp object.

In a few seconds Sam appeared on the spot, he first looked at the puppet and willed something in the mind, there is some metallic clanking sound coming out of its body, it is the change of the energy cell.

Even though this attack looked like it small and worthless, in actual fact, the metal is a Grade-6 material that means, it would be used mostly by Nascent stage cultivators, the amount of energy that was injected into the tip is something that can let the puppet scout for hours. But all that energy was used up in an instant.

The small and insignificant shot is sufficient to be compared to a full fatal blow of a Middle-stage nascent stage cultivator.

That means, if they don't defend themselves properly, even the late-stage and Peak Nascent stage cultivators couldn't handle the attack and even die if it was shot in sensitive parts like eyes and ears.

Sam collected the corpse of the person and was ready to move once again, but at this moment, he is looking at the second screen in his hands and there are three people on that screen.

Sam started guiding the puppet near him to that region. These three are archers and might be there to provide cover to some other troops, this would be a great harvest zone.

After the two puppets arrived at the area, both of them hovered for a minute before aiming for the throats of the two humans.

After the two of them were down, the energy left on both the puppets is the bare minimum and they cannot fire another shot no matter what.

The third remaining person who is a half-Naga was about to call for help in panic, but before he could do so, the puppets made their next move, there is a small metallic door opened on the bellies on the puppet, and two small grenades dropped.

The grenades are actually made of the second-highest grade methane Sam could get, the transcendent stage beasts, he bought it from the beast faction.

Beast faction, has almost all basic elemental beasts and there is even a consummate level fire type beast in their possession, but that is in contract with Sravan, who is still in a half-dead state.

He even bought that feces to see if he can get anything and the results might surprise many.

Anyway, this transcendent level of methane is enough to deal with them. Even though the grenade itself is a lot smaller than the normal grenade, the original methane is stored in the space jade inside, after the grenades are activated the space jade cracks and the methane will increase the pressure and the impact crystal coating with covert the pressure into spiritual energy which would activate the fire inscription inside.

The grenade will explode and just like that they did.

There was a huge explosion right on the head of that person.

When the dust and smoke cleared, there was still fire burning the surrounding trees and in a crater formed on the ground, the Half-Naga has his whole upper body disappeared without a trace.

Sam threw a water sphere at him and put off the fire burning the lower half of the body and stored the remainder of the corpse inside his storage.

He was a tad bit worried that this corpse wouldn't fetch any credits. He then collected the remaining two corpses that are a little bit more discernable.

After collecting the corpses, he didn't stay there, he turned around and changed his course, rest of the troops will be coming here in search of him.

Now he is contemplating, whether he should take care of the people who are coming at him or hunt for completely new prey.

After some thought, he decided to take the second choice. He would kill as many as he could before getting marked and followed. Until then, he would avoid any direct confrontations. He decided not to use any other bee puppets, two are enough anyway.

From the looks of it, there are five hundred people in this forest waiting in ambush and that is a conservative estimate, with a Pre-transcendent presiding over them.

This is a credits farm.

He will deal with them slowly and peacefully without a care in the world. He had a smile on his face and is thinking if he can control these puppets with the flute as he contemplated while hovering to find his next target.
