Chapter 830: Blocking routes

That night, the whole was forest was in chaos.

All the beasts are completely feeling restless due to the sudden invasion of the feathered. They are turning the whole surrounding area upside down.

But all Sam has to do is, observe the crystal table and he can escape to where there are no feathered at that moment.

He just played hide and seek for the whole night and the search still continued till morning.

But Sam didn't want to play along anymore and did something to give him some space to execute his plan.

He just sent some special gifts into the city.

Even though the shadows cannot enter the temple and have a chance of getting detected inside the inner region of the city, the outer region is still easy for them to do something.

And Sam doesn't even want to go as far as the outer region.

Right before the sunrise, Sam sent the shadows inside the city and they are within the premises of the city wall as they dug some earth at the bottom of the walls in their respective positions and set the bombs.

These bombs are the ones that take some time to set. They are similar to the ones he used in the war with Adrian Empire.

After setting the bombs, the shadows escape.

And soon, the presence of the gifts was known.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

A series of explosions caused the wall to vibrate for a long and even cause some cracks.

The guards and other teams searching outside, immediately ran back to the city. And the added fact that the explosions happened on the inner side of the wall only caused more panic.

They all stood on the city walls just for safety.

Sam took this opportunity to do his own thing and the first step for doing this is identifying all the routes to the city.

Even though the main goal of this planet is just serving their goddess, they still have a financial system in place and businesses are a thing.

And the six capitals are naturally the economic hubs. They are also the places with most traffic. Sam is going to delete that traffic.

He would stop all the people coming to the city and block all the routes which will eventually damage the financial system of the city.

As for why he is saying routes in a planet where the creatures can fly, there are beasts that are territorial about the sky too and not anyone can fly anywhere.

The main reason for a small walking path created below the flying path is to make sure that the feathered would stay within the safe region.

They cannot just fly anywhere and everywhere.

And Sam has noticed this in the past few days the feathered are strictly following these routes. Even though the routes are wide, there are many ways to block them.

Sam went to the first route and let out all the soldiers who can work from the chessboard. The Orangutans, minotaurs, the ghouls, Wights, and even the shadow soldiers.

He let Dia and other beasts out.

Dia does the main job while the rest of them will assist.

Sam entered the divine dimension once again and checked with the Sea urchins.

He has a large need for the spikes now. Along with that Mia is busy secreting with the poison.

While Dia is handling the construction along with the rest of the workers, Sam got busy in the second floor with the production unit as he made new toys.

The feathered didn't come out of the city for a while and Sam didn't let the feathered come to this way. He just let the beasts create a disturbance and made them take a detour.

By afternoon, everything is ready.

Sam came out with special equipment and fixed it with the earthen structure they created.

He then dumped a whole load of fire elemental stones in the structure. Called out the Specter to assist him in the soul necromancy.

Sam is trying to do something that is looked down upon, frowned upon, and rejected in many parts of the world.

This is soul necromancy that uses the soul of the recently killed person and forces that soul to become a spirit and enchant it into a weapon, formation disc, or any other object.

This practice is more efficient and more preferable than normal Spirit enchantment because the soul has some consciousness left and the spirit has higher quality.

The same advantage is also the reason for rejecting this process. The soul would retain the original consciousness to a major extent. So, if the necromancer is not skilled enough and couldn't erase all the memories, the soul will suffer too much and there is a chance that spirit might slip out of control and go on a rampage.

If it is a passive weapon, then it is fine, but if it is an active attack formation, things would be beyond dangerous.

Sam wanted to test this and see how it works, since he is inexperienced in this, he called for help from the Specter.

If it is a normal time, he wouldn't be so cruel towards them, but these guys are soldiers and picked a fight with him before he did anything to them. They are the ones who deliberately started this war, so there was no need to hold back at all.

Anyway, he already told them that he would kill them one by one, instead of releasing Arkiv, they are torturing him. They can only blame themselves for it.

Sam performed the ritual with the assistance of a specter and completed the enchantment.

The whole setup is actually a complex set up of earthen pillars of different shapes and sizes which have different metallic mountings on them.

There is another large complex mechanism under it that connected all these structures.

After making sure it was complete with the spirit, he took the body and went to the earthen pillar that was in the forefront.

It is as tall as the flying height of the feathered and on top of that, there is a cross.

He hung the body there, removed the feathers off of the wings, and nailed them to the cross by their flesh, spread them as wide as he can, before writing on them.

"NO ENTRY"

After setting the whole thing up, Sam went away from that spot. The feathered that came to that way looked at the sign and were shocked.

They don't know what the current situation is and some people tested what would happen if they go there.

As soon as the feathered entered the area, the spikes started shooting at him from the nearest structure.

When they tried to destroy the spikes, some formations got activated in defense and spikes kept on shooting at them.

There are many weapons apart from the spikes, there are small rockets that use the biofuel for propulsion and methane for the explosion.

Rockets that use pins and so on.

This is actually a massive attacking beast of a machine.

Since Sam is already a peak stage Pre-transcendent stage cultivator, his formation-level also increased, so with fewer inscriptions. The transcendent stage cultivators can barely do any damage and by the time they could even make any significant damage, they are going to die.

The worst part is that there is a final obstacle really defending the setup.

It is soul formation.

Sam integrated the soul formation into the equipment. Not a single feathered managed to activate that.

Even when the feathered guards from the city came, they couldn't do much.

Sam went away and targeted another route.

For the next week, along with the crucifixions, he blocked all four major routes connecting the city and the villages.

The main four routes were blocked. The rear side of the city is connected to only one route which leads to the main temple city of this planet which is not taken by anyone else.

After the routes were blocked, the situation change was visible instantly.

The city started suffering and the citizens started suffering.

Whenever a large group of people came to attack the blockades, Sam just made an appearance and used energy cells and metal balls to deal with them.

Every day, the news of dozens of feathered dying was sent back to the city and Silva the king of the area is grinding his teeth.

Every day he spent a lot of time standing before the statue of Nike while he closed his eyes.

But he didn't do anything else. The most he did is, let his brother get out and deal with Sam, but there are no results on that end either.

Meanwhile, someone else is having a decent improvement in something.

Arkiv is currently sprawling on the ground as he closed his eyes.

His energy enveloped his whole body and created a visible layer.

The attacks that are coming at him are still hitting him, but they are not disrupting his energy flow. Only the outer layer is being damaged and he is using too much energy to deflect them. But it is still great progress.

No matter how much gravity is being increased, the energy flow is not getting disrupted it is only being expended more.

All of a sudden, he opened his eyes and there is a smirk on his face."
