Chapter 272: Level-5 Beasts and Habitats (2/2)
In the same way, after another ten minutes, it started feeling like giving up and at the same time, its body started feeling a bit numb and hard to move, this time when it was about to turn around, a wind blade hit it hard on its tail making it screech in anger.
Sam looked at it and provoked it.
The beast couldn't hold it any longer and followed Sam with a furious expression.
In another five minutes, they reached the vicinity of the Banyan expanse, and just as they were about to enter it, Sam increased his altitude abruptly.
The leopard came to halt with great difficulty as it reached the edge of the expanse. It felt that something is odd, but before it could make sense, it could feel a hot metallic hit on its butt and due to the sudden piercing heat, it leaped into the expanse.
The vines moved abruptly and caught hold of the leopard. It tried wriggling out of the grip and in-process cut the vines.
But at this moment, a golden eagle, a large boar, and red color elephant, and four more beasts all came from behind the trees.
Their eyes are pink in color. They soon started beating and pulverizing the leopard and it soon became an unmoving corpse and then it became a zombie.
Sam is watching the whole scene from the top. At least a part of it.
He could feel a sense of hostility and at the same time a sense of gratitude to him from the whole banyan expanse. The parasite was happy that Sam was able to bring all the food it can have, but it was having a hard time controlling its urges to devour him too.
Sam can also observe this, right now, the parasite is in the phase of expanding. Since it got some new hosts like these beasts, it will give some leeway to the banyan expanse to grow a bit more, but it will take months and that too on the premise that it survives till that day.
Sam and his group, took more than half-a-day to deal with the leopard. It only took around twenty minutes to lure it.
But to scout the area again and again, so that no mishaps will happen and to check that the beast is in a normal condition and all, it took a lot of time.
After all that, Sam sprayed the water on it mixed with poison of paralysis so that there wouldn't be any surprises and executed their plan
After dealing with another beast, they went back to the tower.
By now, the candidates in other territories also started dealing with the beasts. But they didn't dare attack the Level-5 beasts. The beasts here are abnormally strong and their bloodlines are pretty high. Of course, not as high as Yanwu and the rest.
But they are enough to make these people afraid.
For the next three days, Sam and his group dealt with six more beasts, leaving only four of them,
And by this time, the beasts also noticed the peculiarity. They could feel the changes the Sam and his group brought and are now extremely vigilant.
But that is okay, because, the beasts mostly act on instincts rather than their thoughts, and in another three days the four beasts are also done.
Now only six habitats and the traps are left.
Traps can be dealt with he already has more than one way to deal with each trap.
But the habitats are the most troublesome somethings.
The six habitats are Dark mane lions, the Steel Wolf tribe, the jade horned rhinos, the Black tusked elephants, Red-winged Ravens, and Sand badgers.
Out of all these things, the badgers are the smaller tribe but also most troublesome to deal with. Because the badgers are the ones with the least sense of danger and also the least amount of fear.
Just like the honey-badgers of the modern earth, these badgers will fight to the death with its opponent without any fear, reverence, or any other feeling.
These beasts are actually the only contradiction of the unspoken rules of the beasts and that is the weak fear the strong by instinct. But these badgers do have one restriction though and that is cultivation restriction.
They feel fear or rather aversion and reluctance to attack a being who has higher cultivation that itself. That too if the cultivation level is divided by a whole Level, not a sub-stage.
On the night of the fourteenth day, Sam is thinking about how to deal with the habitats and he couldn't help but look at the map he drafted.
In this, all the positions of the beasts are marked and now almost all of them are crossed. Only the six habitats are left.
As he was thinking about various scenarios on how to deal with these beasts, he got an idea after hours of brainstorming, and if this plan succeeds there is not much need for him to attack personally.
