Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

chapter-844
For the next week, everything went on fast-paced.
Sam didn't bother to hide the Wights and Ghouls, he even let the Minotaurs and Orangutans out and let them fight, while he and the beasts blocked the routes one by one.
Even though the forces of this city have more presence, they don't want to break the rules too. They are still trying to stay within their limits, but the Transcendent stage cultivators still came after the first blockage and it was left for Specter to deal with.
The specter teamed up with the Ghouls and Wights to deal with the transcendent stage feathered one by one as they are not searching in groups, even though there is some damage on this side, a proper ambush is all it takes.
Some wights got injured severely in the process and they had to be put back on the chessboard for recuperation. But still, the price was worth it for the transcendent stage feathered.While the situation is like this, some of the Wights finally broke through. With all the vitality they absorbed from the trees in the Charbhum realm and this Planet, it was only a matter of time and it actually came at a perfect time.
Now he has more edge over the others.
The Queen inside the city is having the worst time though, every day their losses increased. And by the end of the week, there are almost ten transcendent stage cultivators down and Sam has blocked the two main routes directly with all the equipment in place.
The trade was halted completely. At least currently, the curfew is going on and it wouldn't impact much, but even the curfew is not a long-term solution, so they have to think of alternatives.
After the successful blockage of the first two, Sam is currently wrapping the presents for the kings and the soldiers.
He is currently operating on the undead feathered as he placed all the gifts within them.
After the wrapping is completed, the undead that almost looked like they are injured and running away all ran towards their camp near the city wall.The leaders of the camp are already wary of these things, so one of them yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Halt right there and tell us your names and which unit you belong to."
But the undead didn't stop, they only listen to the Wights and Ghouls that made them. Not some random yelling feathered.
Seeing that they are not stopping at all, the captains ordered their teams to attack without any care.
The Undead have only one job to reach the camps and the soldiers made it their job to stop them.
But they couldn't do that as the wights are ghouls are controlling the undead properly, they don't even have to fight back, all they have to do is a dodge, block, or even absorb some attacks and take damage. As long as they reached the camp, everything is fine.
Even though some of the undead fell before they reached, most of them did and they pressed the triggers placed on their body.
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
The series of explosions could be heard all over near the city wall. The soldiers were thrown into chaos.
At this moment, Sam appeared on harbinger in the sky and started kicking the metal balls into the already existing frenzy.
After kicking that, he dropped a scroll right there before leaving.
Nobody cared why Sam is looking different from the two humans that escaped the temple. In fact, they don't have any time to care. They had to take care of their own.
The priest left the city and went to the explosion zone. He guided the soldiers and healers to save the people that could be saved and then finally picked up the scroll. After reading the contents, he brought it back to the Queen.
Queen looked at the scroll with a complicated gaze.
The contents of the scroll are simple and straightforward.
"We are not as weak as you think and this is only the beginning. If you want to risk the lives of your soldiers and the people, along with your sons, then please continue what you are doing. If you don't want to do that, just for the sake of a self-centered goddess, give that weapon fragment and take your sons back.
If you don't make a decision by the dawn, I can help you make a decision. Wait for my next present."
With that, the message ended.
Looking at the Queen's angry and conflicting gaze, the priest spoke.
"Queen Rata, you cannot think of handing it over. Your sons are important but so is the word was given by the Goddess. I would like you to give me a chance. Even if we break the rules for a moment, she might forgive us, but if we give the fragment away, then we would be facing her full wrath."
"You have until dawn. If something happens to my sons, I will kill you for convincing me."
With that, the queen left.
The priest had a complicated gaze and flew out of the temple.
He wanted to take action himself because he knew that the Queen has an extremely soft spot for her sons. She would definitely let go of her queen position and live a normal life if it is for her sons, much less a meaningless weapon fragment that is just collecting dust under the temple.
While the priest took off to the forest, Sam completely nullified his activity. He took everyone with him and went into hiding.
He didn't attack, defend or make any other plans. He didn't want to go for a full war on this city like he did with the Silva city. The Queen here is more emotional than the King there and she spoiled her sons rotten. At least King Silva knew how to toughen his little girl up, but here these guys are nothing but pampered princes.
So, there is no way she would let them feel the pain and the suffering.
But Sam wondered about one thing though. The golden feathers.
Grace had multiple golden feathers on her position, but these two guys didn't which didn't add up at all.
So, Sam entered the chessboard and asked them.
At first, they didn't want to speak, but after some 'careful' and 'gentle' pampering, they did open their mouths.
It turned out the feathers are not just given, they are earned through the competitions held for the younger generation. The competitions are held in the central temple where all royals of the six cities gather along with their best fighters and Grace turned out to be the best of all of them.
And these golden feathers were the rewards from the goddess and only works for the feathered.
Sam is a bit disappointed after the whole explanation.
The functions of the golden feathers are not as good as he thought.
The night passed with the team running around the forest stealthily without doing anything and right before dawn, Sam sent the team to do their new tasks, they are preparing for something big, and Sam to prepare something for that.
After sending everyone, he entered the divine dimension and made a new toy. This is not actually completely new, this is just the modification of the sealing devices that restrict the cultivations by blocking the energy flow of the body.
He is modifying the seal in such a way that instead of just blocking the energy, it will forcefully inject the energy. But the latter part is difficult without any entity there to manipulate and direct the energy properly, which led to Sam using a spirit.
The spirit's job is to use the elemental energy from the elemental stones placed in the device to forcefully seal the energy of the body and then forcefully inject this energy into that body.
After making the arrangements, he ordered everyone to do their part.
The first step is to send a video to the city and that too directly to the queen. From what Sam heard from Arkiv, the priest here is some kind of nut job and he is scarier than the queen the whole time even though she is more powerful.
So, Sam made multiple videos and made them reach many soldiers along with a note telling them to deliver this to the queen.
While that is happening, he sent some presents to the city walls with less defense.
The forces mostly focused on guarding the front of the city as there are no side entrances and it would take a long time to take a detour.
So, Sam decided to attack these places on a large scale enough to scare the people who are still under curfew to be scared.
Then the final step, they have to wait for the queen to make her move.
When the queen saw the video Sam sent to her, she couldn't keep it to herself anymore.
She started weeping as she felt the sorrow and the rage hit her at the same time. If possible she wanted to kill them both, but the Goddess clearly stated that the weapon fragments could be lost if push comes to shove, but the players shouldn't be killed.
So, she has to control herself and decide.
When she was about to take the decision, the priest who got the wind of the news came to find her and see her state. When he saw the video, even he couldn't take it and felt suffocated. Even though he wanted to persuade her otherwise, he couldn't bring himself to when he saw their situation. But when he saw the statue of Nike, he hardened himself and thought of a different idea.
