Chapter 18 - Figuring Out A New Plan
n
n
nAfter calming himself down he started thinking....
n
"Should I take a gamble and create a golem suit, by compressing the earth to the maximum of my power and making it as big as possible.
nAlong with the help of the golden sphere, I can last for a long time in the black smoke...
nThe problems are the wild beast and how far the black smoke exists..
nIf I get attacked and lose my protection for even a second, I don't think it would be good... and that thing that just appeared above the smoke, if I meet something like that there won't be any chance.....
nI will start some experiments, along with the search of the borders for any less dangerous paths or clues....
"
nEven though he knew that the humongous monster didn't seem to be interested in him, He was determined to wait it out for some time, to be safe....
n.....
nA month passed by, he covered about 50 percent of the boundary and he made many new discoveries.
nThere were two types of monster in the smoke, the first kind were different kinds of snakes and the second were animals red in color with a bloodthirsty nature.
nThe red monsters were aggressive and attacked any moving thing in front of them.
nThere were 2 blood beasts and 4 snake beasts in the nearby surroundings, both sides engaged in fights every now and then.
nBoth sides were equally matched because the red beasts were more powerful than the snakes and more aggressive.
nHe never saw the humongous monster again after that one time, he was greatly relieved about this.....
n.........
nOne day he saw a red bear with a single horn on its head fighting two pythons.
nAfter fighting for some time the bear found that it was unable to kill the snakes as they were fast and slippery.
nSo it allowed one of the snakes to bite and swallow one of its hands, which gave the bear a chance to grip on the snake's tongue.
nAfter catching it by the tongue the bear started pummeling it with its other hand, while still taking a beating from the second snake...
nAfter killing the first snake and getting injured seriously, it still fought the other snake and bit the snake to its death.
nWhen the fight ended the bear had lost one of its hands, bones were broken and protruding out of its side.
nStill, it broke open the head of the two snakes and took two brown colored orbs, and limped away…
nThat scene was still etched in Sam's mind, as a person from the modern world. He was new to this gory and savage ways of the jungle, where the strong eat the weak...
nIn a way this was the true nature put forward in a direct manner, rather than the same nature hidden in the modern society...
nHe had experimented with the Earth golem he had created, he could control the earth golem in the 300 meter area.
nBut within one hour the golem would turn black and corrode.
nAfter the time limit the golem turned into the black soil which became one with the black earth...
nOnce the golem went out of the border, it could not come back in. So he could only observe using spiritual sense.
nHe even made the golem move into the area of one of the snakes, the result was it couldn't even take one hit from the snake...
nSo he put the idea of creating a golem suit and going out on hold.. He had to find other solutions.
nAll this while the Evil sword didn't make any move, it didn't even leave his dantian.
nBut from time to time it would absorb energy from his dantian.
nHe had almost forgotten that such a thing existed inside him ....
nHe was also coming up with other ideas like killing one of the beasts and trying to figure out how they could survive in this smoke.
nBut to his bad luck, he saw the two pythons getting corroded slowly after death.... which proved that even the animals inside the smoke will slowly corrode and disappear after their death due to the effect of the black gas.
nBut after more than one month of searching he found something, a ray of hope...
