Chapter 302: Battle over (2/2)
As Sam diverted the knives randomly, he suddenly sensed something and leapt to the side and a knife that he was about hit back passed through that position and pierced into the Sabre puppet behind him.
In general, the puppets, shouldn't be damaged by these knives, but after Sam's 'Heat treatment' the puppet is not as sturdy as before.
When he saw the knife doing damage to the puppet, he had an exciting gleam in his eyes.
He was troubled on how to deal with the sabre puppet when these knives are coming at him, now the knives themselves showed him the way.
And then began the young lady's distress. This time, whenever Sam deflected a knife it would change the trajectory and hit the puppet at the same spot again and again.
Soon, the small hole turned into a big one, big enough for the whole knife to go in.
But at this exact moment, the knives stopped and there is no movement from the sabre puppet too.
Sam understood instantly, that the young lady was thinking about how to make a further move. No matter, what she did the sabre puppet will be a lost cause.
But Sam didn't wait for her to make a decision and made his way to the sabre puppet. The sabre puppet is a lot sturdier than the sword puppet and a lot bulkier. He started slapping the puppet with his palms and soon one hole after another appeared on the puppet.
By the time, the puppet fell down, Sam noticed that something is off.
When he turned back, the large puppet which is shooting knives has stood up and stretched its legs to the side and even the arms are stretched to the side. Before he could make sense, the legs and the arms opened up and a series of chains popped out of it.
There is a blade at the edge of the chains and they all moved as if they are tentacles.
The head also split open and short metallic pikes are being shot at Sam. The chains, the knives and the pikes, the puppet was doing some crazy damage to the arena. The artisans who have built this would puke blood in distress if they saw the scene.
But Sam is experiencing another type of distress. He was being attacked from all sides and it was complete chaos. He activated full-body elemental fusion and he turned into a bunch of golden flames.
This prevented him from getting injured due to the corrosion of the knives, but he still has to deal with the chains. The metallic pikes, particularly when passed through are giving him an excoriating pain.
His spiritual energy which is five times more than a normal Level-2 Grand Realm cultivator was being depleted rapidly and Sam's brain is also working in the same speed.
There are only two ways to be out of this and one of them is using bloodline forbidden arts. It has been a long time since he even thought about these. These arts are some forbidden arts inherent to the beasts of the superior bloodline.
Sam has the blood of four superior beasts in his body and he has the ability to activate them. But if he used them, he wouldn't be able to use his strength for at least a week as his spiritual core would be depleted of all the energy.
There is another way, which he was thinking whether to try or not as it wouldn't probably work twice if the first time failed or seen through by the opponent, but he still decided to give it a try.
He halted his movements and the elemental fusion was stopped. His whole body was suddenly covered with black fog. And he disappeared from that place in a flash.
This is the ability of the shadow mice. He decided to flash between the shadows of the knives and chains and to his surprise, this actually worked.
Unlike shadow mice, Sam wasn't able to move that fast and cover a long distance in a single instant.
But he was able to do so for a few metres.
As Sam flashed down, the attacks were slowly reduced and before the young lady could understand what is happening, Sam is already behind her and placed his hand on her neck. The third puppet which is a gigantic obstacle wasn't even dealt with by Sam.
He just simply took a turn around it and held the lady by her neck from behind.
*CRASH*
She immediately lost control of the puppet and the huge metallic structure fell down causing the debris and dust to raise.
