Chapter 246: Metal Mines (1/2)

The Metal mines are quite close to the Southwestern star and it is quite risky for Sam to make any flashy moves.

If it was like previous mines in the southern star, it is still alright because all his methods are discreet and complicated.

But now that he needs to teach the emperor a lesson for painting him as a terrorist. Sam has to do something flashy. He has to create terror in the citizens, workers, and officials.

The best way to do that would be killing people left and right, but Sam doesn't like that much, so he is going to choose the second-best option.

He will do the damage in a fearful way. He doesn't need to kill the people directly, but it is necessary to make sure that they know that he can kill them.

And the fear of an unknown person holding their life in their hands and a motive behind him to act. This is something hard to overcome.

Sam moved towards the Metal mines at his full speed.

Unknowingly, he made a good decision by luring the beasts towards the forces from the south-western star.

Because, of that, he realized that the metal mines, wouldn't be able to get reinforcements that easily and with this, he got a new idea and discovered a new way of attacking the cities and Dukedoms.

That is using the beasts and he can do the same to the Metal mines.

These metal mines of this dukedom have three mines. One of them is the metal elemental stones and the other two are the mines of two different metals.

If the three spots that he destroyed in the Southern Star are the three major resources of the southern star. Then this place is only one major resource of the Southwestern Star.

Of course, there are some minor mines and herb fields but they can hardly satisfy the needs inside the Dukedom much less exporting.

But this mine is major source of trade of this Dukedom. Not only does it satisfy the needs of the Dukedom's metal elemental stone supply.

The southern star and the southeastern star get their metal elemental stone supply from here.

Now, Sam is staring at this place from a nearby mountain and was planning on how to deal with this.

He can use the Chinchillas again, but the required effect couldn't be achieved at all.

He has to make some big scenes leave a seriously big and bright symbol that terrifies the people around it.

And all of it is a metallic place.

The problem at the southwestern star city will take at least a week to be over and that is judging by the fact that they can intimidate the elephants and send them back. If it becomes a battle, it will take more.

And two days are gone in the journey. So, Sam has five days to deal with this place and move on.

Since this Dukedom doesn't have any other major resources, he can just move away from here.

When he saw the metallic zone like this, he is tempted to do something with electricity. But he doesn't have a lightning element which would make it easier for him to create electricity and it is hard to create a trap like the one he created in the Blaze city.

He has to make sure that the resource wouldn't be lost and the people wouldn't be able to access it while delivering a serious blow that would cause fear in people.

He is thinking hard and after a day of thinking a single Idea popped up.

But for this, he needs the help of all his friends.

The first part of the plan is to create disorder and chaos in the area. He has to make the miners and the officials go into a state of unrest.

And for that, he has a perfect option.

The Methane Grenades which he used in the Imperial capital to deal with the trouble makers.

These grenades are great to cause some flashy damage.

The next day, four of them hovered in the sky on their beasts. They started dropping the grenades on the formation of the Metal element spiritual stone mine.

”What is happening?”

”Someone is attacking.”

”Oh, shit look at that. Someone from the sky is dropping something on the formation.”

The workers are in extreme unrest and Sam and the gang left the places as fast as they came.

There is no real damage at all.

”Shit. Jack, Philip formation is stronger than I thought, let us leave this place.” Sam yelled on top of his lungs and four of them left the place in a hurry on their beasts. They disappeared into the nearby forest.

The formation protected all the workers, but the main thing is that the workers saw the effect of the grenade, and Sam's attack was like a probing attack, it is as if he doesn't know that the formation is there in the first place and since his attack failed, he left the place to escape.

This made people afraid. Now, that Sam knew that mine wouldn't work, what if he attacks them next. What happens to them when they are in their residence. They already heard that Sam wouldn't care about their lives now and is a full-fledged terrorist.

Even though they didn't know that the attacker was Sam, they could guess that much from the rumors, the rumors the Blackwater guys created.

The Nascent who is the guardian of the place is the one who is most frustrated.

He has kept a lookout on the surroundings of the place and is checking, the ground and sky, all the same, to see if Sam would attack.

But Sam easily sneaked past the perimeter he setup and attacked the mine. And the worst part is before he could go back to the mine, he escaped.

Sam is like a slippery loach. It is hard enough to spot him and even he was spotted he can escape swiftly. The worst part is now his friends are also attacking.

The Nascent read the report before. There was very little activity of Sam's friends, in southern star. But as soon as they are labeled as terrorists, they are also attacking.
