Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

chapter-607
Sam already went through the spatial rings of the people here and he already has seen few pearls that came from the lake.
The weekly resource points don't seem to interest the Union sect by much, because the subordinates here have six pearls, which means from the past six weeks he didn't give away this share and it has only been six weeks since they captured this place.
Sam looked at the lake as the oyster shined and opened. He dove and took the pearl before coming out. The oyster closed and the lake was back to normal.
He looked at the pearl carefully and noticed that there is a faint red hue around the quail egg-sized watery-blue pearl.
He used his observation skill and noticed that it is full of water elemental energy, but there is faint energy that resembled the energy from blood-essence.He became curious and placed the pearl he got from the spatial rings. Both of them are almost the same except for the red hue, which he accounted for the blood that was absorbed.
He became curious and threw both of them into the divine dimension as he closed his eyes and observed Mia who is taking the two pearls in.
She first ate the normal pearl and the reaction is that she got a bit of spiritual energy and most of it is water elemental energy. When she took the second one, she could feel minute improvement in the blood and body as she was eating some nourishing food. But the effect is so faint that it didn't matter whether the change happened or not.
Sam started using the eye technique and the observation ability at the same time as he could see the energy slowly gathering inside, the oyster. It is mostly observing the lake's energy for now and it is slow.
He squatted down and placed his hand inside the lake. Every living creature will emit some energy out and Sam also does. That energy was also being absorbed and the energy absorption from the water reduced a bit while the energy out of his hand is being absorbed at a more normal pace.
He took out a glass container to see what the water and tried to examine it as much as possible. Then only he noticed that even though it is water, it not normal water.
Normal water would have some vitality present. Even if it was not as apparent as the trees and light, there would be some vitality present in water, but in this lake there is none.The water almost seemed to be dead, even the spiritual energy that was being absorbed by the oyster is not coming from the lake, rather the water is absorbing the spiritual energy from the surroundings, and due to the nature of this weird water and the spiritual energy that it absorbed not being directly consumable, it turned into water elemental energy by the time it reached the oyster, at least that is what he can figure out from the observation in the energy flow and changes of the energy.
He took out a spirit stone and threw it in the lake as he kept on observing.
The lake water stopped absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy and completely focused on the spiritual stone.
They started channeling the energy to the oyster and when observed, he didn't notice any change in the nature of energy. It is still neutral spiritual energy unlike before.
He felt weird because, the energy absorbed from the ground and plants and surrounding environment is being converted into faint water elemental energy, but the spirit stone's energy was not being converted.
He felt like this is something worth observing as he threw a lot of spirit stones in the lake. There are more than a hundred thousand, but still, there is no increase in the water level. It is just like normal.
He left the lake alone for the time being and went back to Chatur who wrapped his work up.
"So, what are we doing now?" Chatur asked.
"What is the location of the next resource point?"
"It is far from here. We would have to cross the army and travel for four hours on Sky to go to the next resource point. From there, the remaining three would be near enough. But from what I heard, the situation is not as easy. After these two attacks, they tightened the defense in other resource points.
I don't why they are not aggressive in attack though. After all, a base and the resource point are big enough provocation."
"They are being wary."
"Of what?"
"The troops of the sect are well trained and tightknit. They are well-versed in battle. That is the reason no one attacks them lightly. But two of those squads are gone, disappeared right from their troops in two days.
They are wary and want to see exactly what they are dealing with."
Chatur had a look of realization on their face and he thought of something.
"What are the weapons you used to attack them?"
Sam smiled and replied.
"They are called guns, the smaller ones are handguns and the large one is a sniper rifle. Why?"
"They are powerful." He said in a low voice.
"Of course, they are. They are made such a way to reduce my effort during these kinds of situations."
"These kinds?"
"Yes, I often find myself in a spot where I have to kill a lot of people. It would be exhausting to fight them head-on. With these things, I can use almost the same amount of energy but is not as exhausting and dangerous. But there will always be exceptions, just like the ten people yesterday."
"Oh." Chatur wanted to say something but hesitated and stayed silent.
"How far is the next resource point from Sandra's place?"
"There is a direct way connecting two places, it wouldn't take much time."
"Then let us go. Since, the next pearl will come after a week, even if it is left alone, we don't have to worry about anything. But still call for a squad and ask them to guard here. Tell them to not touch anything in the lake, otherwise, I will break their legs."
Chatur nodded and went on to do his tasks. Sam doesn't know how he was able to contact the castle from every place. But he didn't care for now, as long as the task is done.
A squad from the Volcanic cannon came to this lake for now meanwhile, the squad they called for from the castle will follow the Volcanic cannon.
There are no signs of attack from the enemy troops at this moment, so they didn't worry. Sam and Chatur went on their journey to the next resource point.
Sam decided to clear the next one and stay there for the night and go to Sandra's place and finish the demonstration.
At the same time, this will also send the message to the Union sect. They will know that increasing their defense will not be changing anything and they are still as vulnerable and then the elites will finally come out.
Even though, Chatur said they are elite squads, from what he could see, they are barely foot soldiers. They are elite, but only compared to the squads of the Nagin and other castles, but within the sect, they are a little more than normal foot soldiers. He is pretty sure there is not much of a difference.
The next resource point is a bamboo forest. Inside the forest, there is a single bamboo that grows individually and gives out special water within their sections.
Water is useful for cleansing the toxins and improving body conditions. It was said that it can be used to enhance medicines and potions by using a small amount.
Every week a new individual bamboo will start growing from the bamboo shoots of the previous bamboo. But only shoot among all of them will grow and become a bamboo tree and only one section of the tree will be giving this water.
Around a liter of water will be given every week.
Sam is looking forward to having a taste of this water. From what Chatur said, it will two days for the next harvest and it is a great time.
They arrived at the place by afternoon and there are two hundred members here. Sam was really impressed by the fortification. All the soldiers are in a formation and they have beast companions. He didn't expect that he would meet so many cultivators that use beasts.
Fifty of the two hundred have beasts and they are felines. Tigers, lions, and Panthers. All kinds of feline beasts are present. He almost drooled over them when he saw them. He didn't expect that he would get such a great harvest this time. He got around a hundred Dark wind owls and now these good felines, he is looking forward to what this place is going to offer.
Sam sprang into action and by night, he was done. Some felines are dead, but he managed to capture most of them. After checking his loot, he once again made a tent and waited there for the squads from the Nagin castle to arrive.
