The barbarians didn’t take the truce agreement from Sam lightly. And they took the attack on the city harder.
They didn’t know if Sam could really do it a hundred times more, but they know one thing, they have to deal with him as fast as they can, so they moved the whole city’s population to the estate, the estate is cramped and even though it occupies one-fifth of the city, the whole population is still a bit overwhelming.
The weakest of them all are sent directly into their underground temple which is the safest space of all and then they started placing the people in increasing order and the Consummate level people are almost in open grounds of the estate.
The Astral Plane cultivators are having the lowest level of protection.
The Tribe chief and the next strongest four stayed on the four regions of the estate leading half of the whole Astral Plane cultivators to defend themselves from the sky attacks, while the remaining half of them started moving out fiercely.
Many of the barbarians are spear users and they used their spears savagely.
Sam who is watching the whole situation from afar was surprised by their actions and returned to the camp immediately.
The barbarians are destroying everything and anything in the surroundings. They are not even caring whether the beasts, the trees, and their surrounding forest would be affected, they straight up started destroying each and everything foot by foot as they moved forward.
Soon, they reached the mountain in which Sam and the camp previously hid, the barbarians didn’t even bother to check whether there is anyone, they used their spears and threw them straight at the mountain as they slowly collapsed it and even made sure that their spears went underground nearby.
This is almost like a carpet bombing. But it is not exactly the same as the carpet bombing. It is a bit different. They couldn’t move as fast as a carpet bombing. They have to move slowly because they have to be thorough, they knew that Sam is switching camps, a few dozen people wouldn’t be able to move traceless. But they are disappearing somehow.
So, they decided to go strong. They are the bigger party here and they are the ones that should be offensive, but they were forced to be so passive by Sam and his shenanigans.
They decided to go full offensive now.
Sam decided to use it to his advantage.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFrom the start, even though the barbarians are on the losing side, they thought that Sam is nothing without his tricks.
So, they felt that once they caught hold of him and didn’t let him hide, it would be over for him.
But Sam to show them that they are utterly wrong. He should make them understand that they are in too much trouble to waste time underestimating him.
So, he decided to make a move. A direct and strong move.
From what he saw, the stronger half of the Astral Plane cultivators are inside the city. So, the relatively weaker half are the ones that are moving around and they spread a bit thinner.
With the number of tribe members he has with him, it is even okay for him to strike directly. They can clash upfront without even a thought of losing.
They are confident in that, but he didn’t want to do that. He wants to give them a show of force a stronger force if you might add.
So, he decided to let the subordinates be the backup while he dealt with them directly.
He took the reaper sword and moved on the harbinger to the nearest Barbarian.
When Sam appeared before him, the Barbarian was shocked a bit, but he recovered soon and called for his nearby friends.
At least he is not stupid enough to directly confront him.
But Sam doesn’t have to wait or worry about the arrival of his friends. He can start early without any hesitation and he did just that.
His body is covered with wind elements as the sword created a large wind blade and Sam slashed it right ahead.
Creating an extremely flashy and large move that attracted a lot of attention from the surroundings.
The barbarian defended it with his spear as he stabbed at the wind blade coming at him with full power, but he blew back because of the backlash.
Sam got off from the harbinger and stored it away.
He jumped at the barbarian and as they clashed in close quarters for a few moments.
Sam is using a lot of his physical strength forcefully. He is fighting like a barbarian as he clashed with him and finally when a few barbarians are reaching them, he activated wind element once again at the last second which the barbarian defended mindlessly and even the spear blocked the sword, the wind blade slashed into his chest and Sam used metal element and cut through the spear before tearing the chest open with his sword.
The barbarian fell on his back with barely any of his breath left and Sam finished him off with a stab to his heart before he moved towards the next barbarian who is so close that he saw the last move.
He was stunned as he saw how strong Sam is. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovel(F)ɪre
Sam ran towards him with his sword as he started throwing the wind blades with it.
The barbarian is defending against them, but he also threw a couple of spears back at Sam.
Their battle started with the long-range and the barbarian has decided on keeping it that way. He didn’t let Sam attack reduce the distance between them at all and he moved in different directions.
He seems to be good a moving technique and Sam without using any elemental fusions or abilities was unable to catch up with him.
He also noticed that the barbarian really knew how to take advantage of the terrain even though most of it is newly created by destroying the old one and he is trying to lure Sam towards more of his team members.
Sam didn’t care though. After a few minutes of this chase, he switched reaper with his bow and started shooting arrows.
The barbarian also stopped in his tracks as he looked at Sam from afar. He noticed that his friends are coming and they would be here within two minutes, so he is not worried about dying easily and he also couldn’t let Sam stop engaging and escape, so he stopped and attacked from there.
He took out a large pile of spears and started throwing then one by one.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSam focused on dodging more than the shooting itself which the barbarian misunderstood as him not being able to shoot at that moment, which brought a smile on his face.
But that changed the very next second. Because Sam is actually waiting. Waiting for the next barbarian to see what exactly is happening to his fellow tribe member.
Sam’s arrows came too sudden and the barbarian has already become too complacent to notice it.
After the first arrow with paralytic poison applied to it was lodging into his chest, the rest of the arrows were easy, one arrow after another riddled the guy in the chest and all over the front side of his body.
Sam kept on shooting as he moved forward and the barbarian that is nearest stopped in his tracks from what he saw.
When the barbarian with arrows fell forward, his body didn’t even touch the ground.
The arrows stopped it from happening.
The arrows managed to support the body like it was nothing.
It is almost like he is laying down on a bed of arrows.
Sam looked at the body as he observed the work he did and the barbarian who is standing nearby didn’t want to be noticed he looked for another companion of yours, who is actually coming towards them and not too far away, he would be nearby within thirty seconds.
Sam smiled at them and waited for the second party to join in.
It is lucky that he managed to get a hold of people at Astral Plane Initiation and that too at the initial stage. He doesn’t have to extend too much of his strength, so he has to show what he planned to them now.
He wants to create a chain reaction of fear and see how far above can he fight even in the Astral Plane cultivation by using the fear to his advantage.
That is why, he is making a flashy move at the start to attract the nearest members and when a member is near enough to see them clearly, he would deliver a terrible and cold last blow, which would not only make it brutal but also make it look easy.
This would inevitably cause some kind of fear in the barbarian who saw that as it would be hard to not imagine himself being in the place of his friend.
And the fear would create a chip on the other party’s shoulder which Sam would once again exploit.
He replaced the bow with staff and moved towards the next opponent at a rapid pace as lightning elements enveloped him. It is time for him to move to the next link of the chain.
