The spectators who were anticipating a good show couldn’t help but feel stunned at Sam’s actions, not only did he make a move against twenty people but he also made it that the group can’t even retaliate.Suddenly, Zeke felt a bad premonition. He has a feeling that they made a mistake by trying to make Sam a target. But Sam isn’t bothered by them as he felt that Zeke and his brother were some small fries, he could handle anytime he wants.Right now, he is thinking about this special branch and what is the meaning behind this.From the principal of Starwood academy, he found out that this has something to do with the emperor himself which left him curious and one thing is he doesn’t have that much of a good opinion of this emperor.Why did Sam think of him like that?
Because, all the journey he made from a rural village to the marquis city, even though the people’s lives aren’t bad, it isn’t great either. It is more like an underdeveloped country. Not many people are having an average life and most important thing is, he never heard a single thing about the emperor.A good ruler will have a sufficient exposure that even the people from the rural areas will know about them.
But Sam hasn’t heard about him even once. There are no good things or bad things he could hear. It felt like as if the emperor isn’t even ruling them and the people aren’t even the part of the empire.That is the main reason, Sam didn’t have a good opinion and since he knew that this special branch and all these continuous competitions are created on the demand of the emperor himself, his impression only worsened.After all, what is the emperor planning so much that he wants to find a person who passed through all these trials filled with cruelty and rivalry.But these answers aren’t something he could get just by pondering, so he threw these thoughts to back of his mind and looked at the food packets he brought to his camp.He called Jack over and both of them dragged the dead bodies of the inmates to the place where they dealt with the chameleon corpse.Sam thought of something, but didn’t know if he should do it or not.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf it was his previous life, he would have done it without a second thought, but this time, he is considering whether he should this side to the others.Just as he was thinking, Jack’s voice came from the side."What do you want to do with these bodies?" He asked with some curiosity in his voice as well some disturbance.Even though, he was surprised and admired by Sam’s abilities of making most out of the available resources, he wasn’t comfortable with the idea of Sam making something out of the human corpse.Sam finally came out of his daze and immediately shook his head."Nothing, let’s just bury them. I was only thinking what we have to face in the future."After that, Sam went on and stated cutting the trees around his camp and made a log cabin. Their camp was a bit damaged by the previous attack from the inmates and that’s why he made a log cabin.
Even though, it isn’t that much sturdier than the previous mud house, it is a little more comfortable.But the most important reason is, Sam is really sick of being in that mud house, that’s why, he took the extra food portions. So, that he could use his spiritual energy liberally.Those food portions might not hold the spiritual energy for long, so he finished the log cabin as fast as possible and consumed the food before it became useless.Soon, the third mission came and after that the fourth mission and so on...Like this, there was a mission approximately for every ten days and every time there is at least one casualty from the candidates.These candidates had to fight beasts, humans, and some times among themselves so that they could get a portion of food to replenish themselves.Soon, six months passed and Sam is nearing his sixteen. He is sitting in the log cabin as he looked at the night sky.
If his guess is right after mid-night, the eighteenth and the last mission of this six months special branch education will start any moment.And just as he predicted after a few hours, an announcement was made and everyone immediately came out side of their camps."Dear candidates, this will be the last mission in the special branch zone for you and you can finally get out of this situation you are in.So, I hope you will perform your best in this last mission."The voice paused briefly and the remaining fifty candidates are looking at each other.Yes, there is a total of seventy candidates who either gave up or died.The announcement came again."Your mission objective is to get out of the special branch zone alive. All you have to do is cross this front door."As soon as his sentence was finished the front door which they saw opening only when somebody gave up and went outside opened fully. But as soon as it opened, a huge tide of beasts started running inside towards them."But your mission wouldn’t be that easy.
You have to cross it without being killed by these beasts. And these beasts aren’t your only obstacles. Please turn around." At this statement all the candidates looked around, Sam included and they were instantly struck dumb.The walls which they felt impenetrable had a lot of hidden doors and from those hidden and beasts started running inside.
Even the stream is full of alligator and crocodile type beasts coming out of it."All the best." The voice from the announcement immediately woke them up.Then only they felt the tremors caused by the beast tide. Sam immediately climbed on top of his log cabin to see how many beasts are coming in. When he saw that there are more than five hundred of them.
Sam became anxious.He immediately told his teammates to get to a higher position, so they too soon climbed a tree Even though, in a beast tide of this range, climbing a tree wouldn’t help that much, it is at least as little better than staying on the ground.While the beasts are nearing them with a moderate speed, Sam is looking at them as if he was searching for something.And he really is searching for something. Because, there are mainly two cases a beast tide happens. One of them is that all the beasts are afraid of bigger predator or a natural disaster and wants to move away from that place and the other one a strongest beast is directing them to do so.Since, a planned beast tide like this wouldn’t happen for the first reason, so Sam is finding for the beasts which are in control of the tide.
If he can subdue those beasts, the root of the problem will be solved. So, he started looking at he soon found three targets. One of them is an ape type beast, which has white and golden fur.
It stood at a corner at the back end of the tide and is looking at all the beasts with some disdain. He immediately recognised the beast. It is Golden-fist ape.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis is one of the close combat type beasts that uses its fists as if it was a boxer and the main thing is that this beast has no element and uses the neutral spiritual energy. He looked at the second target, which is in the stream. It is a Blue scaled alligator which is a water type beast.
This beast is one of the predators in the water and its scales are in a shiny blue colour.The final target is near the front gate and that is a scarlet lion which is a red coloured lion type beast. It is actually a fire element and also blood elemental. Just like the blood hyenas he faced before this scarlet lion can also easily increase its spiritual energy by consuming the blood.Out of three beasts Sam liked the Golden fist ape as it has the best blood line origins of the three.It is a descendant of a Golden ape.
Even though, its blood line isn’t as superior as Yanwu or Sky it is just a bit lower.That means if we rate Yanwu’s and Sky’s blood line as 10 which is the top of the scale, Golden ape is one that has a bloodline at 8.And the Golden fist ape is the descendant of the bloodline and the purer the bloodline is the more the golden fur on the ape.And this ape has more than fifty percent of its fur in golden colour, so Sam is quite happy and decided to get this.But at this moment, Jack called him."What’s the plan?" Only at this moment, did he realise that he completely forgot about the situation they are in. Sam thought for a moment and said."There are three bosses in the beast and all of them seemed to be in Level 3 which is equal to the Novice level. The beasts that are coming at use are at Peak of Level 2 to Middle stage of Level 3.
The bosses might be from Late stages of Level 3.If we need to get past this unharmed, I have to say that it is almost impossible.Because, I don’t think this boss beasts are for show and by the time we make it past these underlings, they will definitely make it past these underlings, they will make a move and I don’t think we would be able to make it past these underlings unscathed in our current situation."When Sam said these words, the teammates felt depressed.Because, the number of beasts is ten times the number of the participants and all the candidates are not in their best shape. So, this task seemed almost impossible."As I see it, there is one way to get out of this situation but the probability isn’t that high."When Sam said this, they felt hopeful again, even though the probability isn’t high, they still want to give it a try. It is better than nothing after all."First let us create a space where you will be less targeted."Sam then looked at Hawk and explained him something.So, after a few moments, both Sam and Hawk started cutting all the trees around them with wind blades.
They moved fast and started making piles of wood around the group, while Jack and Philip arranged them according to what Sam said.Even though, the beasts aren’t moving at a high speed maybe, the arrangement of the examiners to let the candidates think of way out, they still didn’t feel that they have enough time.So, by the time, the beasts from both sides got closer to them and with in twenty meters distance, Sam’s teammates surrounded a huge blazing fire.All the candidates and beasts were startled. And the beasts that are now very near to them started to avoid the fire. From the fire one could see that there is still a lot of wood kept as reserve.Now, there are only fire type beasts which are actively moving towards the fire.
But that is better than getting attacked by all the horde.So, Sam and his teammates stood in the square area which is about 10 square meters surrounded by fire as he thought of his next steps.
