Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer
chapter-589

"Bro, is it really okay to let him go like that?" One of the Flavos candidates asked the leader.

"Let him go, he can be our bait. If he is skilled enough, he might be able to run to the cave before he died and he can lure a salamander or two separately.

Even if he didn't, as long as he is a bit skilled, he would be able to hit a Salamander and cause some damage. Even though, it didn't matter much. It is still beneficial for us.

Even if he didn't do any of those. We can at least estimate the power of the Salamanders and on top of that he also paid twenty million to us."

When the leader and the others are speaking. Sam walked into the cave leisurely.

The cave entrance is large and most of it is occupied by the Lava stream.

If anyone wants to enter, they have to enter from either side of the stream, not through the middle of the entrance.

The cave is dark and nothing is visible outside, even though it is such a large cave.

Sam is feeling a little bit excited. This is only the first day. Not only did he get a new type of fruit, but he is also going to enter a Salamander's nest. Even though, he is not interested in Salamanders that much and the main focus is the stream itself since the flavos took his money.

He might as well make his money's worth in this cave. As soon as he entered, he could see the blood-thirsty presence of many creatures.

When he reached a wider area of the cave, there is a lot more space and it is as big as a football stadium.

In the middle of it is a Lava pool and around the Lava pool, there are many plants that are growing the same berries Sam picked on his way. The berries are bigger and they are definitely a better version than the ones he picked.

But he is nowhere near excited because the Lava stream is ending here. This would prove that his efforts for the day are wasted. Even though he has a month, he wanted to finish this as soon as possible and get out of this place.

*ROAR*

*ROAR*

*ROAR*

As he was already feeling frustrated, there are many roars echoing in the cave and he could feel the hot air blowing from the beasts.

He is surrounded by the beasts. The Salamanders are really mutated and they don't have the regular red skin scales that their race would usually have. But they have golden scales, just like the Golden lava.

He looked at them and he could even understand their roars. All the roars have only one meaning. 'KILL'.

They are eager to kill and are squabbling among themselves as they are undecided on who should kill Sam. It seems like it has been a long time since they saw someone and they are extremely eager.

When he saw the number of beasts in the area, he was surprised and shook his head.

Because the number of beasts here is far more than the group anticipated. Just the Nascent stage beasts are twenty-six and as for the Pre transcendent stage beasts, he could feel four presences.

The team outside could barely do anything to them.

As the beasts roared at each other, he smiled and said.

"You guys can squabble later. I am not here to fight, I am here to discuss something. So, it is better if someone who can make decisions come over."

As he said this all the Salamanders shut up and they roared once again, but this time, there is a roar from another cave passage that is within this cave. He is waiting for that presence to come over.

A larger Salamander came out and looked at Sam.

[How can you understand beast tongue?]

Sam merely chuckled and circulated his bloodline powers all over and released the beast aura.

"I am a partial beast myself. So, you want to talk?"

The Salamander is a Pre-transcendent stage beast and it looked at Sam curiously. It could feel the beast bloodlines and they are fairy superior to his. If not for the cultivation level, it would have been suppressed by now.

Even now, all the Nascent stage beasts are having a hard time as they took a step back and this is Sam holding back.

[What is the deal you want to talk about?]

"There is a team of humans that are waiting outside. There are so many people and even though, your strength is far greater than they could expect, you will still lose half of your populace if they really come back and after that damage, they will come back with more force and kill you guys for revenge and of course for your leather and scales.

I have a plan for you guys to suffer less."

[Why should we believe that you are not going to help them? How can we believe that this is not a setup?]

"Me and them? Do you really think that lowly of me? I didn't think my first impression is that bad? After we make a deal, I will sit right beside you. I will not even make a single move. You can even keep one of your claws on my neck, and kill me if you find something wrong."

[Why are you helping us?]

"Number one, I want to trade some of the berries for my help. And number two, I came in here following that stream and I was in a hurry, so I didn't bother talking with them and paid twenty million. It is a too large sum of a money. Even though I paid I planned on taking it back before I leave, but since I have to embark on a completely new journey.

It is better to settle this score right now."

[What is the plan?]

Sam smiled and started explaining. He then moved to various corners of the cave and started placing some formation flags and some formation discs all over the place.

He showed a demonstration and deactivated the formation.

He then nailed the formation discs into the cave walls and formation flags into the cave floor so that they could stay there permanently.

He came back to the Salamander and said.

"If you attack as I said, you can easily defeat them and remember to collect all their spatial rings from them," Sam said these words, and all of a sudden, he started screaming at the top of his lungs as he threw fireballs at the walls and floor giving various golden glows.

"Arghhhhh.."

"Arrgggggg…"

His voice is extremely painful and after putting up an act, the Salamanders are ordered to give a painful cry and some angry roars.

Meanwhile, the team outside, which slowly grew suspicious are about to investigate what happened inside the cave, but just before they did that, they heard the painful screams of a human and a beast along with the sounds of battle.

They were extremely delighted and from this. Particularly when they heard the painful screams. They immediately wanted to take advantage of this battle to catch them off guard and even the leader felt like Sam is really strong to get such a death cry from a beast and create such chaos.

But as soon as the party entered the cave, what they experienced completely subverted their expectations.

As soon as they entered, their senses are disturbed and they could fully observe the presence of the Salamanders, and even their vision and spiritual sense are restricted and they walked along the stream.

But only after a few minutes did they come to their senses and when they did, they are shocked. They realized that they were in an illusion because at this moment, they were already surrounded by the beasts.

When they counted the numbers, they are even more shocked.

The beasts are more than they expected. They tried to look in the surroundings to run for escape for some weird reason, they couldn't see the cave entrance they came in. All they could see is that they are in the cave.

The leader looked at the stream and cried.

"Follow the stream."

One of the candidates followed the stream. They have to go in the opposite direction of the streamflow. But when they noticed this, they felt weird because if the streamflow is correct, the person who should be nearest is the farthest to the entrance.

But they attributed it to the illusion and felt like they might have turned around when they are struck. And when the candidate moved though, they heard a plop sound and he disappeared.

"Help me. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...….."

They could hear the screams but they don't know what happened. They are extremely afraid and they shivered in fright even in that hot weather. The Salamanders seemed to be enjoying this, but after a few minutes of panic right before the people can calm down, golden flames blasted on them accompanied by the roars of the Salamanders and the illusion finally disappeared.

They didn't move in the wrong direction actually, all they did is move diagonally a bit and when the man walked backward, he directly went into the stream.

After the Salamanders attacked, the illusion disappeared and it was all controlled by the Salamander king of this place. Even though they are not extremely intelligent, they can at least inject energy into a spot and remove it at the perfect timing. After all, they don't have to observe some great working principles.
