Chapter 168: Dragon Hawk Tribesman (2/2)
He modified the formation, so that the full restriction will change into partial restriction. Since, he cannot teach them how to control their energy like how he did with Watt, Sam decided to force their bodies and spiritual cores to adapt.
Sam floated in the air as he observed everyone.
After a few minutes, he noticed a peculiarity and that is the most of the fire elemental and wind elemental mages are unable to do anything. They were able to conjure spiritual energy but the energy is too minute for them to attack.
And another thing is, they are not using any hand-signs for spells.
He made a quick count and found out that these guys are the same people who came to his battalion voluntarily.
He called them to assemble separately and asked.
”Can you tell me what your problem is?”
Sam asked directly. Even though, these guys are not able to do anything, he still has favourable impression towards these hundred than the rest of the battalion.
No matter, what the bet and circumstances are, Sam took all these five hundred soldiers under his responsibility.
He wanted to wait for these guys to come themselves, but from what he observed these guys are quite determined and wouldn't say that easily.
Today, Sam is in good mood as he was able to finish the machine, so he asked these guys about their problem himself.
After his question was made, he saw that expressions of the people became downcast. Two people who seemed to be leaders of both elements respectively came forward.
The leader of the fire element group said.
”Commander, my name is Marian and his name Amir.” He introduced himself and the leader of the wind element group and then continued.
”We are from Fire-Wind Dragon Hawk tribe. Our tribe is located towards the southwest of the empire.
We are actually not part of the empire rather our tribe is a small village within the woods. No beasts would attack us and we live in harmony with the nature.
We are adept in fruit farming and our land is good for growing fire element and wind element fruits which are quite useful for low-level cultivators.
And only we can cultivate in this land as the skills were not recorded rather passed by one generation to other generation.
But recently, from a past decade the war between the two empires was becoming more and more intense and in turn the woods we reside in lost the balance due to these battles effecting our livelihood.
Our tribe leader who is Great realm cultivator tried to talk with the commanders on both sides but to no avail and soon we had to move out of that place and it was quite difficult for us to escape the warzone.
After some long hard struggle, a Regiment commander who is the war zone gave our tribe, the refugee in a small village, but the condition is that at least five hundred soldiers from our tribe should be in the army and we are always treated as cannon fodders.
In our tribe, there are only two types of cultivators, either wind element or fire element. Apart from that our bodies are also quite strong.
But the only problem is that, we cannot cultivate using any methods. Our breakthroughs are fast and forceful but only to a certain extent.
We can only fight with the control of the spiritual energy forcefully and a lot of it will be wasted every time.
We cannot cultivate spells or any warrior techniques.
But due to our sturdy defence and reckless fighting methods, we are being used as cannon fodders in exchange for our tribe's safety.
When we saw how you fought with them without any hand signs, we wanted to ask you for help, but couldn't bring ourselves to do so.
But after that, we heard that you are going to be a battalion commander and so we have applied for transfer.
We slowly wanted to ask your help but before that you already found out.”
Sam is staring at him as he was stunned.
He only asked what the other party's problem is in the aspect of knowing about their in ability to spells and techniques.
But the other party explained all his history. At first, Sam was bored and wanted to stop but when he heard the words and problem, he suddenly had a thought.
These guys' problem and situation are too similar and are clearly aligned with the problem of a beast.
Right a beast. A beast also cannot cultivate a technique designed for humans, neither it has spells or fighting techniques.
Their break throughs are also due to natural consumption of food. After some thoughts, Sam felt that he has stumbled on something interesting.
