Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer Chapter 245: Attack and Escape

After saying what he has to say, Vickers left the place. His promise to the empire was only guarding external threats, not internal threats and issues, and certainly not an issue that involves the fragile ego of the emperor.

He has to keep an eye on a lot of things himself. He came here so that he can show how serious he is about this whole thing and advise the emperor to not push Sam's b.u.t.tons.

And most of it is because of some selfish reason. That is, he is not confident that he could handle Sam if he defected to the enemy empire.

That is right, he has followed Sam's actions and the most important observation he made was about his talent in military training. He can fight with the enemy emperor of his level, but he cannot attack the lower-level soldiers which would be unethical.

But if Sam is on the other side, he has absolutely zero confidence that the Orion could win.

It is crazy that one young man could make this much difference, but that is the sad truth, which he cannot deny.

But his efforts are wasted, not because the emperor didn't heed his words. But rather it is already useless that Sam is already p.i.s.sed off plenty and he lost all kinds of thoughts on a truce.

Right now, he is moving towards a metal elemental spirit stone mine in the Southwestern star Dukedom.

The word about his challenge to the emperor and his declaration that he would be the terrorist they labeled out to be stunned the citizens, now they started questioning the authenticity of the emperor's notice.

But the next information diverted their attention. It is news about how Sam killed a General by careful planning.

This news coupled with the first news that Sam would be behaving like a terrorist, they suddenly have a fear of being attacked.

Particularly, the workers in the mines and fields.

They don't know how to deal with this. They felt as if there was an invisible sword hanging over their necks.

And they are seriously considering leaving the mines. But at this moment, an interesting announcement came from the son of the Duke of South Western Star. He is not of the same age group as Sam.

He is a Grand Realm cultivator and he is the same age as the crown prince.

"n.o.body has to worry about this person named Sam. He is just a toddler who doesn't know what he is playing with. I don't believe he can kill the General nor does he have the probability to.

All the people from mines and fields work properly. And if this b.a.s.t.a.r.d wants to deal with you guys, he has to go through me."

When Sam heard this word to word notice, he smirked and said to his friends.

"I think we need to take a detour."

After that, they went straight to the Dukedom capital and since it is not that far away, he reached in a day. They are inside the South-western star city and Sam is already planning to deal with this guy. After all, he did say the b-word and he has to pay the price for that.

And three days later. In the night, there was a projectile that was shot over towards the son of the Duke and a huge blast occurred. Completely tearing down the whole manor along with the son of the Duke.

This is due to the impact cannon. But what Sam shot wasn't an impact crystal sh.e.l.l, rather is an energy cell.

He just destabilized the cell and shot it fast enough for it to hit that person.

Although, the blast couldn't harm a Nascent a Grand realm cultivator is still within the reach. After the death of the Person, Sam shouted on top of his lungs in the south-western star city, his voice reaching almost half of the city.

"If you want to live, you better keep your mouth shut and mind your own business. Because, if I want you dead, then you are dead. There is no safety guaranteed for your life and even your imperial family cannot guard you, from me."

He left the city as fast he got in here.

This almost made all the Nascent stage cultivators and Grand realm cultivators look like fools. Sam turned out to be a real pain in the a.s.s.

And the worst part is they cannot request any a.s.sistance from the Imperial capital because Sam is only a Great realm cultivator and a Dukedom has multiple Nascents, this is embarra.s.sing to even ask.

But what can they do? Sam has a pretty versatile and useful object. The Divine dimension. In the higher realms, the Divine dimension is something very valuable and precious. Even Ling Tian who gave Sam this Divine Dimension wouldn't have thought that Sam would use this like an escaping device.

This can be considered as borderline shamelessness. Because Sam is using the ignorance of the people at themselves to come and go into their houses as they please.

But this time, the attack didn't come without any repercussions. Every official was afraid of him now, but one person is enraged by him and that is the Duke himself.

This time, the reaction is not that mild as in the southern star. This Duke threw caution to the wind and sent the whole city guard command and the soldiers in the base after Sam.

They just swarmed all the surrounding woods and Sam who is getting ready for his journey towards his original destination was stunned by this.

He can move as fast as a Peak Level 5 beast that is when is only concentrating on traveling.

And now that the whole forest is swarmed and disrupted, things wouldn't be so smooth.

He didn't expect that the reaction would be this strong. Sam is actually impressed by the decisiveness of the Duke.

And although his decision might seem to be in a fit of anger, it is actually the right thing to do.

Because they knew that Sam is using the woods to travel and since they don't know his destination or location it is hard to locate him as the area of the search will be large.

But now they knew where Sam is due to the latter's dominant declaration. Although it struck fear in people which as Sam desired, it also gave away his location, and judging from the place he is, one can easily imagine his next location.

The metal mines of the south-western star.

There is only one proper route and if they can swarm the forest surrounding this area, they have a possibility of catching Sam.

Yes, of course, there would be some lives that would be lost in the process. But considering the amount of threat Sam could pose towards the empire, it would be the best choice. This choice is something that the Duke of the southern star couldn't make and Sam went away scot-free.

Now, Sam is in the middle of the forest standing below a tree.

He has two options and one of them is travel with shadow mice and be careful that the beasts wouldn't disturb, which almost impossible because shadow mice are great nutrients for snake type beasts.

One of the reasons they wouldn't be able to survive in the wild.

The second option is for him to just enter the divine dimension and wait it out. Slowly move with the Drunkard underground.

But the problem is that there is a chance that these guys might try to search underground and the last thing he wants is getting his divine dimension crystal in the hands of these guys.

They wouldn't be able to store it in their storage rings, but they might just put it in close monitoring. Of course, he can still escape but that would expose his secret.

He chose the third option and that is getting rid of these guys forcefully. He wouldn't change his plan, he has to go and destroy those metal mines, but before that, he has to force these guys to stop following his trail.

From what he estimated, there is a Nascent and more than ten Grand realm cultivators along with many Great realm cultivators.

They are advancing very cautiously and Sam might have another five minutes before they reach him.

Sam took out an energy crystal and destabilized it. But he didn't throw it towards them, he threw it towards the deeper sides of the forest.

And with that, he made his move. After the explosion occurred, the beasts suddenly became restless and Sam moved towards the explosion. The troops who are after him followed him towards the explosion area.

But this didn't stop. Sam took a smaller sized energy crystal which is as big as his fist and threw it deeper and deeper inside the forest.

By now, the chaos in the forest grew too much and suddenly there is a huge aura that came from deep inside the forest. Sam smirked at this, he took out another smaller energy crystal and threw it from the place where the aura is coming from and this time, he suddenly changed directions and moved towards the troops.

A large elephant type beast followed him. And behind that elephant even more, elephant type beasts started coming.

These are the lords of this territory and the forest is their home, since their home was being destroyed of course they would come out.

At this moment, the Nascent who just entered the forest due to the explosions was stunned to feel the aura of the elephants charging towards him.

His mind went blank and his attention was successfully drawn away from Sam.

And this all Sam needed.

After luring the beasts towards them, he took out harbinger and suddenly hovered in the sky.

He disappeared in a flash as if he was never there.

The Nascent who is in charge of the pursuit couldn't even decide what to do.

Because he knew about these elephant beasts. The ones that came out are only Level 4 and Level 5 but the elephants live in communities and their leader is Level 6.

If he doesn't handle the situation properly, there will definitely be a problem awaiting them.

The elephants might damage the city.

So, he started ordering the soldiers to retreat slowly.

Sam escaped the situation smoothly. Even though, it seemed like the situation was easy for him. He is on tenterhooks. The energy cells are a pain in the a.s.s, as it can mutually destruct him along with the enemy.

The shadow mice are not very suitable in the wild. Because their presence is not insignificant but it is not strong enough for the beasts to avoid it.

The drunkard can only fool the vision, not other senses.

He can still escape by using the divine dimension. But this would bring some speculations. Sam might consider himself superior but he would never think that all the people in the empire are stupid.

He knew better than anyone else, that speculations based on logic tend to be right most of the time and Sam disappearing from a place instantly will draw some speculations and if this report went to the higher-ups and someone who knows about the divine dimension might give him a hard time. After all, there is no guarantee that the divine dimension is invincible.

Now, with his actions, he can stop some of the speculations and the people will think that he always used the forest as the only cover.

As for his sneaking into the city, they can employ it to the disguise techniques and his skills.
