Chapter 34 - The Sticky Situation
n
n
nRick's companions wanted to interfere but Sam was too fast.
nSam didn't wait to see the reaction of others, he appeared before the next target with more force.
nholding an earth spear, Sam directly pierced the energy shield formed around Tammy.
nTammy was also a spear user but he could not keep up with Sam's speed.
nTammy was pierced on his left shoulder, breaking the shoulder bone completely.
nTammy was also thrown back spraying blood.
nThe next target was the pig head, he was the strongest among attackers.
nSam did not waste even a second and formed another spear and attacked in full force with the next earth skip.
nBang... a powerful shield had formed around the pig head and many symbols were glowing on his armor.
nThe power of this shield was many times more than what the other attackers used.
nSam attacked three times in a row, with the power of attack increasing with each new attack.
nCracks started appearing on the energy shield, but still the energy shield did not completely break.
nPig head was in a panic, he pulled out something like a grenade and threw it to the ground.
nThere was an explosion and a blue smoke covered the entire area.
nAt the same time a mask had already appeared covering the pig heads mouth and nose.
nThis was some kind of poisonous gas grenade, which could be used against powerful wild beasts.
nSam was going for the fourth attack when the grenade exploded and he was already in its range.
nEven though Sam was fast and used another earth skip to get away from the area, he was a little late.
nAs he moved away he started feeling like he was becoming weaker and he could not control the energy in his body.
nAs he was moving away he unknowingly ended up near the dog head.
nThe dog head had gained his conscience and threw another similar grenade.
nThe dog head also had a similar mask like the pig head.
nNow Sam was really angry at himself for pitying this guy and holding back on his attack.
nHe did not linger any longer and used the next earth skip and passed by the dog head.
nA dog's head was sent flying up as Sam passed by the dog headed shaje.
nSam didn't slow down after decapitating shaje, he was going to escape.
nThe blue smoke has already entered his body and Sam knew he could not fight with his full strength any longer.
nSuddenly he felt his instincts giving out the alarm of an eminent big threat.
nBut he was late to react as a blue spear already pierced through his left chest before he could do anything.
nSam suppressed the pain and tried to pull away with another earth skip.
nBut before he could, symbols started appearing on the spear that was struck in his left chest and a blue flame started appearing on the spear as it burned through the wound in his chest.
nThe flame didn't stop there, it started to spread into his body.
nAaaaah....
nAn earth shattering scream was heard as Sam yelled
n
" Maya..
"
nThe Shackles of Maya that was staying in the shape of a jewelry on Sam's right hand grew long instantly and disappeared.
nAnother scream was heard as a silhouette appeared from thin air, bound in chains.
nIt was the old butler, he had used some kind of stealth technique.
nShackles of Maya was an extraordinary weapon, it could locate and identify the enemy inside any stealth or illusion.
nSam had also found that this weapon of his can take any form, even though it's real form was a chain.
nThe pain was unbearable but Sam used the next earth skip with full force.
nAt the same time he used the sand storm technique and one with the earth technique.
nThe Sand storm covered a 200 meter radius and everything in it became vague and undetectable.
nThe young master Mike Lomba was angered and yelled towards the space ship.
n
" Scan the whole area I want to find that pest now.. send the live feed to me..
"
nMike looked at his watch, which started projecting a 3d image of the area.
nA reply came from the space ship,
" sir the technique used by the enemy is really powerful, we are unable to determine the situation inside the sand storm....
"
nMike
" Useless bunch ..... focus on butler Serome's , Sky watch.
"
nSoon a dot appeared on the 3d image projected by mike's watch.
nThe dot was moving slowly towards the direction of the spaceship.
nMike
" It seems Serome is hurt and he is moving towards the ship... send the androids to aid him..
"
ntwo flying robots came out of the ship and descended to the earth to move towards the sand storm.
nBut before they entered the sand storm the dot was already out of the sand storm.
nMike's pupils constricted after seeing what came out of the sand storm.
nHe saw the barbarian dragging butler Serome with one hand, through the earth like a dead dog.
nThe butler was half dead, blood was leaking out from the area below his navel showing his dantian was probably shattered.
nThe whole area was silent, only the sound created by the sand storm remained.
nThe barbarian stood before the spaceship and looked at them, like they were some puny rats that woke the dragon from its slumber.
nSam' s cold stare brought an unnoticeable shiver to Mike and all the crew who was watching the scene through the 3d image in the space ship.
nThe captain of the spaceship swiped the sweat on his forehead and said,
" We might have angered a ferocious beast...
"
nSam just stood there and looked at the young master who was behaving all haughty and mighty a few minutes ago.
nSam was holding the butler by his head, he applied a little pressure and the butler's head exploded like a watermelon.
nSam didn't speak anything nor did he make any other actions, but the message was clear as day.
nThis was literally Killing the Chicken to Scare the Monkeys.
nMike felt like someone had slapped him heavily on his face, at the same time he was also feeling many other emotions.
nThis butler had been with him, ever since he was a child and always helped him cover for his notorious activities.
nBut before he could yell for the attack, the sand storm expanded and the enemy vanished into it.
nMike was filled with hatred and yelled
n
" kill that bastard... fire, fire everything....
"
nAll the weapons on the spaceship pointed at the sand storm and started firing.
nThe energy weapons installed on the space ship were very destructive; an entire 1 km area was covered in fire and explosion.
nDeep craters and holes were formed on the ground, certain places were more heavily bombarded as these places had more chances for the enemy to be present according to the calculation of the supercomputer inside the spaceship.
nSand storm disappeared and when the smoke cleared, nothing could be detected properly.
nBut all of a sudden a spearheaded chain blasted through the disc on which mike was levitating.
nEven though this young master was haughty and arrogant, he was not a complete idiot.
nHe jumped up as a special shield blocked the explosion of the disc and further attacks from the chains.
nCertain symbols started appearing on Mike's boot as he started flying towards the space ship.
nMike took a heavy breath and relaxed a little, when something penetrated through the shield and directly stabbed into his chest.
nIt was an ancient looking black sword that appeared out of nowhere, the sword gave out a black and red baleful aura.
nDifferent kinds of images depicting monsters appeared and disappeared on the flat sides of the sword.
nThe images were roaring angrily as if the souls of the monsters were imprisoned inside the sword.
nThe sword had stabbed at the exact location of the heart, but it couldn't completely penetrate the heart due to the interference of the shield.
nMike took out a crystal with many symbols embedded in it and crushed it.
nYellow light was emitted out from the crushed crystal and it enveloped Mike completely as he started disappearing.
nThe Evil sword was pushed out screaming as if it was hurt.
nMike had disappeared as if being teleported.
nThe captain of the ship who was watching the whole scene through a 3d projection gave the order to retreat immediately.
nThe captain knew their young master had used some life saving treasure to escape and a very powerful enemy was still lurking in the dark .
nSam appeared from the ground, the spear was still stabbed through his left chest.
nHe could feel that even his heart was pierced a little.
nAfter seeing the enemy fleeing he couldn't keep up the mighty pretense, he started losing his strength and started to fall .
nThe shackles of Maya transformed into a support and stopped him from falling down completely , It helped him to walk away .
