Chapter 245: Attack and Escape (1/2)

After saying what he has to say, Vickers left the place. His promise to the empire was only guarding external threats, not internal threats and issues, and certainly not an issue that involves the fragile ego of the emperor.

He has to keep an eye on a lot of things himself. He came here so that he can show how serious he is about this whole thing and advise the emperor to not push Sam's buttons.

And most of it is because of some selfish reason. That is, he is not confident that he could handle Sam if he defected to the enemy empire.

That is right, he has followed Sam's actions and the most important observation he made was about his talent in military training. He can fight with the enemy emperor of his level, but he cannot attack the lower-level soldiers which would be unethical.

But if Sam is on the other side, he has absolutely zero confidence that the Orion could win.

It is crazy that one young man could make this much difference, but that is the sad truth, which he cannot deny.

But his efforts are wasted, not because the emperor didn't heed his words. But rather it is already useless that Sam is already pissed off plenty and he lost all kinds of thoughts on a truce.

Right now, he is moving towards a metal elemental spirit stone mine in the Southwestern star Dukedom.

The word about his challenge to the emperor and his declaration that he would be the terrorist they labeled out to be stunned the citizens, now they started questioning the authenticity of the emperor's notice.

But the next information diverted their attention. It is news about how Sam killed a General by careful planning.

This news coupled with the first news that Sam would be behaving like a terrorist, they suddenly have a fear of being attacked.

Particularly, the workers in the mines and fields.

They don't know how to deal with this. They felt as if there was an invisible sword hanging over their necks.

And they are seriously considering leaving the mines. But at this moment, an interesting announcement came from the son of the Duke of South Western Star. He is not of the same age group as Sam.

He is a Grand Realm cultivator and he is the same age as the crown prince.

”Nobody has to worry about this person named Sam. He is just a toddler who doesn't know what he is playing with. I don't believe he can kill the General nor does he have the probability to.

All the people from mines and fields work properly. And if this bastard wants to deal with you guys, he has to go through me.”

When Sam heard this word to word notice, he smirked and said to his friends.

”I think we need to take a detour.”

After that, they went straight to the Dukedom capital and since it is not that far away, he reached in a day. They are inside the South-western star city and Sam is already planning to deal with this guy. After all, he did say the b-word and he has to pay the price for that.

And three days later. In the night, there was a projectile that was shot over towards the son of the Duke and a huge blast occurred. Completely tearing down the whole manor along with the son of the Duke.

This is due to the impact cannon. But what Sam shot wasn't an impact crystal shell, rather is an energy cell.

He just destabilized the cell and shot it fast enough for it to hit that person.

Although, the blast couldn't harm a Nascent a Grand realm cultivator is still within the reach. After the death of the Person, Sam shouted on top of his lungs in the south-western star city, his voice reaching almost half of the city.

”If you want to live, you better keep your mouth shut and mind your own business. Because, if I want you dead, then you are dead. There is no safety guaranteed for your life and even your imperial family cannot guard you, from me.”

He left the city as fast he got in here.

This almost made all the Nascent stage cultivators and Grand realm cultivators look like fools. Sam turned out to be a real pain in the ass.

And the worst part is they cannot request any assistance from theImperial capital because Sam is only a Great realm cultivator and a Dukedom has multiple Nascents, this is embarrassing to even ask.

But what can they do? Sam has a pretty versatile and useful object. The Divine dimension. In the higher realms, the Divine dimension is something very valuable and precious. Even Ling Tian who gave Sam this Divine Dimension wouldn't have thought that Sam would use this like an escaping device.

This can be considered as borderline shamelessness. Because Sam is using the ignorance of the people at themselves to come and go into their houses as they please.

But this time, the attack didn't come without any repercussions. Every official was afraid of him now, but one person is enraged by him and that is the Duke himself.

This time, the reaction is not that mild as in the southern star. This Duke threw caution to the wind and sent the whole city guard command and the soldiers in the base after Sam.

They just swarmed all the surrounding woods and Sam who is getting ready for his journey towards his original destination was stunned by this.

He can move as fast as a Peak Level 5 beast that is when is only concentrating on traveling.

And now that the whole forest is swarmed and disrupted, things wouldn't be so smooth.

He didn't expect that the reaction would be this strong. Sam is actually impressed by the decisiveness of the Duke.

And although his decision might seem to be in a fit of anger, it is actually the right thing to do.
