Chapter 414 - The Great Sage

nSam didn't know that two fish escaped the net he laid down. At this moment, he is in the third hub taking the rewards.

nThe weapon room, once again only has the same crystal for the treasure map, this time he didn't leave it there, he took it and then stored all the weapons away.

nWhen he entered the next building, there is another fruit. But this has a different colour than the first two fruits.

nOf course, this has completely different uses.

nAfter taking everything that he could take, Sam went back to the battle field and as soon as left the hub, Akriv arrived and when he noticed that the treasures are gone, he couldn't help but curse himself for being slow.

nBy this time, Sam is already half way back to the battlefield.

nAfter some time, in the battle field. After the two candidates escaped, the rest of them also tried to escape the place, but the vines let the monkey warriors go and they are besieged again.

nIn fact, they were let go intentionally, because the 'man' from the beast faction also noticed that this is the best chance to eliminate the whole group in a faster way. She doesn't know how many people are left to fill the five spots, but she is confident that this battle will be the last until they get to the final obstacle.

nSam looked at the remaining candidates, by this time, the monkey warriors are not attacking crazily, they simply surrounded the remaining four candidates who are left and let them fight one on one. They are also exhausted and the monkey warriors are conserving their energy to prepare for unexpected situations.

nAs for the four people, two of them are of thunder god temple and the remaining two are from the Usaine sect.

nArman and Arthur both survived. But they are extremely exhausted.

nThere are around ten more monkey warriors and the candidates are clearly in a disadvantageous position.

n

"Fuck, even if I have to lose, I am taking these monkey bastards down with me.

" A candidate from the Usaine sect went berserk and started attacking two monkey warriors.

nHe didn't care about the attacks of the monkey warriors and took them all in. He is determined to kill the two monkey warriors even if he is dead. Looking at him, the other Usaine sect candidate also went all out for one final struggle.

nSam didn't feel a single wave of emotion. This is a competition after all. The two of them disappeared while they took four monkey warriors away.

nThe remaining monkey warriors learned their lesson and didn't want to give such chance to the remaining two.

n

"Shall we try and escape together?

" Arthur asked Arman. A monkey warrior came in between so that both of them wouldn't communicate, they are trying their best to not repeat the same situation.

nAt this moment, when the monkey warriors were about to gang up on them, one of them who was nearest to Arman fell dead out of nowhere.

nSam shot him straight in the eye. He didn't follow up though.

nThe monkey warriors halted in their tracks and didn't know what is happening, the situation is similar to what happened before.

nThey don't know who the attacker is so they decided to direct their anger at Arman and Arthur.

nBut at this moment, one more Monkey warrior who is near Arman. Now only four of them left.

nThey suddenly felt that they shouldn't mess with Arman, because the monkey warriors who are near Arthur didn't stop in time and attacked, but no bullet came for them.

nThey suddenly had a faint idea on what is happening, so they wanted to confirm it, so the monkey warriors once again attacked, but this time only Arthur.

nThey left Arman alone and no bullet came.

nThey immediately targeted Arthur.

nArthur is no idiot, he also observed the situation and looked with his eyes wide open.

nHe understood that the person hidden in shadows is helping Arman, but he doesn't know why.

n

"Arman, save me too? Please. We can cooperate with each other.

"

nArman didn't say anything stood there. He doesn't know what to reply. He knew that someone is helping him, even though he has a faint speculation on who would do so, he couldn't confirm and if his thoughts are correct, there is no way he could ask him for something.

n

"I don't who it is, but he seems to have chosen me to save in random. I am really sorry Arthur.

" With that he ran away without looking back.

n

"Whoever you are Please save me?

" Arthur yelled at the top of his lungs.

nBut there is no reply.

nSam didn't care about the situation. From what he knew, there are already four people including him and Arman is the fifth person.

nAs for saving Arthur, he doesn't have that close of a relationship with him. In fact, Arthur has almost clearly drawn a line with him after their few business deals because of his enmity with the Beast faction. He doesn't want to get involved. So, Sam is also not bothered to be involved in this mess.

nEven if he wants to save him, then he has to eliminate one of the remaining candidates, the 'man' from the herb garden is dangerous and slippery, the archer is a tough opponent, with all the restrictions placed on himself to hide his identity, Sam doesn't have enough confidence to finish the battle easily.

nThe chosen one from the Beast faction is also tough to deal with. His defence and physical strength are quite hard to deal with.

nArman is his lackey, so it is obligation to help him. So, there is no chance for Arthur to survive. He has to get lost even if he doesn't want.

nThe battle was over soon and Sam aimed his rifle at the monkey warriors as soon as they dealt with Arthur.

nHe went to the battle field and collected the spatial rings and the weapons from the dead bodies.

nAs he finished storing everything, he looked towards a direction, where a bright light shot towards the sky.

nNot just him, all the five of the remaining candidates who are strayed in various place all looked towards the light.

nAt this moment, the voice which gave introductions to them, came again.

n

"You guys finished faster than I thought. Only a few days, less than a week. I thought you would take at least a month to deal with the three hubs.

nBut well done.

nThe five candidates, come to the place where the light is arrived, your last test will be here.

"

nAll five candidates immediately moved towards the light. The final test.

nThey like this palace of inheritance better than the previous. At least they don't have to stay in for a month inside and the gains are more.

nIndra didn't give these many treasures.

nWhen they reached the centre all five of them faced each other.

nThey are extremely vigilant, the pillar of light still didn't disappear.

nThey are looking at it with curiosity.

nAt this moment, Arman is looking at Sam. He is familiar with that silhouette. He has seen that silhouette, when he was awake and when he was sleep in the form of nightmares, how can a mere mask make him not recognize that.

nSam also looked at him, but didn't say anything.

nBoth of them stayed silent after that brief exchange of glances and looked at the pillar of light.

nAfter a few seconds the light completely disappeared.

nThere are a total of six platforms in front of them.

nOne of them is in centre and the remaining five are around that.

nAll of them are circular platforms.

nOn the five platforms, high above in the air, somethings are floating in a spiritual energy bubble.

nApart from that, on the six platforms, there is a monkey statue holding a staff. The one in the centre is a golden statue while the remaining five are stone statues.

nThe Golden statue moved and started speaking.

n

"Hello, my dear candidates, congratulations on making this far. I didn't expect that everyone who came this far will only be players chosen by gods. I expected at least one of you would be a normal kid.

"

nWhen the statue spoke like that, everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that this guy would lay it bare like that. It seems like their identity within themselves is not much important.

nThe statue continued.

n

"My name is Sun wukong. The Great Sage; Heaven's Equal.

" The monkey statue said proudly.

nThe five of them are stunned. They didn't expect that someone would proclaim that he is an equal to the heaven. But Sam was even more surprised. He didn't expect that he would meet such a character.

nEven though, Sam's origins are from India, how could he not know about Sun Wukong? He is in fact very familiar with that. He did have a faint speculation about this, but didn't dare to confirm.

nFirst Indra and now the monkey king. One who belongs to Indian Mythology and another one Chinese.

nSam felt extremely intrigued from this development and wants to meet other gods.
