Chapter 1548 Explosive attacks

　　Sivan let all of his late-stage cultivators go out to deal with them.

　　The battle started immediately and he was relieved to find out that the undead creatures are overwhelmed easily by his subordinates.

　　Since that dust storm Sam has created with the Lava worms, this is the best news that he heard.

　　The only bad thing is that the undead creatures behaved like they have a brain of their own. They are not engaging directly and brainlessly. Rather they are cautiously fighting the opponents and most of the time they are dodging all of the lethal attacks that could disable their joints and stop their movement.

　　They are playing too much defense and are dragging the battle into a long one.

　　Which he obviously didn't like.

　　But he can only do so much. He assumed the command and started directing his soldiers, the puppets, and all the operators that are making sure that they don't lose this massive battle.

　　Because by the end of this clash with the undead, the winner will be able to take the first step forward and crash into the other party's territory.

　　It is one of the decisive battles that could turn the tide of the whole war.

　　Sam also assumed the command on the other side while the operators are repairing the dome barrier formation.

　　They started commanding their side of the troops and tools and now are directly involved in the battle.

　　Time passed slowly, but the changes are also happening rapidly.

　　First, Sam decided to make the undead creatures go into a formation to deal with the elite troops. Since his main focus was to reduce the numbers of the other side he mostly played defensive with the elites and went past them to attack the mercenaries.

　　But this made the undead creatures suffer some attacks and lose their mobility advantage in the process.

　　Sivan thought won after that and let the mercenaries lure them deeper into the group before letting them attack.

　　Only to realize he made a big mistake.

　　As soon as the undead are surrounded by the soldiers who are attacking them constantly that too with a fair distance enough to not be affected by the curses and poisonous liquids coming off of their bodies, they suddenly started glowing.

　　"Idiot."

　　Sam muttered as he commanded the spirits he enchanted within the bodies of those undead creatures.

　　*BOOM*

　　*BOOM*

　　*BOOM*

　　Three explosions occurred one after another from three undead creatures. The soldiers in the surroundings were directly affected and got injured. Along with that, there are a bunch of small white crystal shards that were shot at another bunch of soldiers and made them go unconscious.

　　The crystals immediately started consuming them at a visible pace.

　　Sivan was stunned and caught off guard. He really thought his team managed to score one on Sam's undead group, but he realized he was played off.

　　So, he became cautious in other spaces.

　　The whole thing turned into a big chess match.

　　In one move, Sam managed to kill eight other mercenaries and one of the elites.

　　But Sivan managed to destroy a dozen undead creatures out of which four of them passed their curses to another elite.

　　Sam then brought down three gliders with the help of the undead and used them to crash some more mercenaries.

　　He was met with the destruction of another dozen undead creatures, but all of their curses and poisons are completely useless.

　　Sam destroyed the arrow towers by sacrificing two undead creatures. In the process he also made all of the operators turn into white crystals.

　　The best part is, that he made some strong undead creatures to pick the crystallized people and threw them at the late-stage cultivators to slow them down.

　　They were barely distracted, but the high-level undead managed to find a window to land some curses on those people.

　　"What the hell is going on here?"

　　Grivon who sat beside Sam on the wall of the city asked Giyon in a whisper.

　　"They are battling. The full-scale head-on battle. No sneak attacks, no heavy schemes, and formations. They are trying to run down each other's forces."

　　"So, we are winning, right? I mean, the forces are thinning down for the other side. We are only losing undead."

　　"Of course, you would think so, you idiot."

　　Giyon said as she playfully slapped him on the back of his head.

　　"What else? The battle is still taking place mostly near the camp, not the city. The undead creatures are being destroyed, but they are also taking down the puppets and mercenaries. I say we are at a pretty good advantage."

　　"Really? Look through the telescope and tell me how many people are still there within the campgrounds?"

　　Grivon did as he was told and he looked through the telescope.

　　"They are still reorganizing and it seems like they are being prepared. But they are a few hundred?"

　　"Yes, then tell me how many undead creatures do we have left?"

　　"Not that many. I think we sent all of them into the field. There are only some really special ones left."

　　"Of course, apart from that, how many people do we have left in terms of forces."

　　"Not that many."

　　Grivon finally understood.

　　"Why are you constantly being a kid? I thought you wanted to be the clan's leader. Start looking past the current situation and what is going to happen if things are going the same way they are now.

　　You need to be able to estimate all the variables and in turn, estimate what is going to happen in the future too. Do you understand me?"

　　"Yes."

　　"You are a smart guy. You managed to estimate Sam's location and saved him before Sivan could touch him.

　　This means you had the foresight to know that Sam is important enough for Sivan to go through so much trouble and he will be useful.

　　Try to use intuition more. Just don't look at the things that are right in front of your eyes. I am sure you will do great if you do that."

　　"So, why am I getting this lecture at this moment?"

　　"Because after the war, I will be spending little time with you. I have somethings to do and I might not be able to meet you like this."

　　"When did you make this decision?"

　　"A few days ago."

　　Grivon wanted to ask more questions but Giyon turned serious and looked at the battlefield.

　　Because as the time is going on, the Mari clan's soldiers are getting an upper hand. The white crystals are consuming the mercenaries because of the attacks from the suicidal attacks from the undead creatures.

　　But that can only do so much for them.

　　The undead creatures are losing the lead they had until now and Sam suddenly stopped fighting with the mercenaries and the soldiers.

　　They started attacking the puppets, cannons, and machines to reduce their numbers.

　　As for the high-level undead creatures, they took down a few people, but in the process, a few of them became immobile and fell right there in the middle of battle.

　　Sivan thought there would be some traps set up inside of them, so he made one of the subordinates inspect them carefully.

　　But still, he didn't bring them into the camp. He just left them in the field and took some videos to send to Cray.

　　It is almost dawn as the battle went on.

　　The undead creatures are reduced by half while the forces of Sivan were also the same. But he lost some elites along with most of the mercenaries. So, he could say that his quantity might have reduced but the quality remained almost the same.

　　At this moment, Sam suddenly got a call.New chaptᴇrs are published on ɴovelꜰɪre.ɴet

　　"Sir, the dome formation is repaired. The barrier is going to work and we managed to make the tweaks you suggested. The hardness is going to be improved by a bit."

　　"Great. Keep me informed of the changes and keep the puppets as I have told you before."

　　"Yes, Sir."

　　"Thank you for your efforts. Rest and change the shifts with another batch of operators."

　　"Alright, sir. Thank  you so much."

　　Sam stood up from the wall and looked at the undead creatures.

　　The high-level undead creatures are still battling. But their energy is almost at the end. So, he made his final move with the current undead creatures.

　　All of a sudden, the undead creatures that were moving carefully until then ran to the troops and all of their bodies started glowing.

　　They didn't even bother to attack.

　　They just latched on to the soldiers and bit into them, before glowing brightly to explode.

　　*BOOM*

　　*BOOM*

　　*BOOM*

　　One explosion after another the undead creatures sprayed poisonous fumes, black cursed gases, curses, and white crystals at the soldiers.

　　Even the high-level undead creatures are on the same track. They jumped at the elites and started glowing.

　　But one of them is especially different as it latched on to the person who is the strongest of the bunch and started glowing with a different color.

　　*BOOOOM*
