Chapter 594: Payback (1/2)
Sam still hovered on the harbinger as he dodged the falling golems with a peculiar look. Even though he didn't see a lot of golems and particularly not the naturally formed one, to the best of his knowledge, he knew they wouldn't fall mindlessly like that.
He wanted to just go straight away from the canyon, but he was stunned by what he saw. Because a giant golem came rolling down. It is ten times larger than the rest of the golems and it blocked the canyon's entrance.
He wanted to go back, but another golem came there which is of the same size and blocked that way too. He didn't expect something like this to happen and wanted to increase the altitude and getaway. But then there came some beasts on top of the canyon. They are bird-type fire elemental beasts.
Sam frowned at this. As he tried to increase the altitude, the birds are launching at him as if they are catching a chick. He felt extremely annoyed because the number of them is too large and they are both Pre-transcendent and Nascent stage ones.
He was being attacked by the golems and the birds at the same time. This is something he didn't expect.
He didn't think this thing is coincidental though.
As he was thinking that and was hovering at the maximum altitude he can and trying to dodge the birds and find his way out, he saw some familiar faces behind the large golem that is throwing lava at him.
They are two teams of people. One of them is the rubrum empire and the other is of another nation that he doesn't know, but their scales black.
He frowned at this. He didn't expect these people would beat him to this spot and even set such a trap on top of that.
The team members looked at him and smirked. Particularly the team leader of the rubrum empire.
”There is no way out for you. These things wouldn't get out of the valley anytime soon and they wouldn't let you get away easily. Particularly, when they are sure that is in that canyon but it is not present and you are the only foreign presence that is there which will automatically make their dumb brains think that you are the one that stole it.
Good luck getting out of that. Even with your extremely practical and fast toy, I highly doubt you would be able to do that.”
Sam raised an eyebrow when he looked at their cocky expressions as if they have one. He doesn't know what they used to lure these creatures into this canyon at the exact same time, he entered it, but they sure did a great job.
He is sure that if it is anyone normal they would have definitely had a hard time getting out of here. But they don't realize, that Sam is not anyone.
Sam looked at them for a second and once again reduced his altitude. The birds are the most pestering at this moment. They are called Flame owls. Their talons are extremely sharp and they can secrete fire poison through them.
Even though Sam has experience with that and fire poison has the word 'poison' in it, it is not a normal poison and the hydra bloodline wouldn't do anything to it. Golden crow's bloodline will help him absorb it, but the process will want to make him cut the part where it is infected rather than absorb. It would be that painful.
As for the golems, they are just mindless brutes and if not for their numbers and the size of their leaders, he wouldn't have any problem getting away at this moment.
He decreased his altitude and dove deep into the valley. He took out the two handguns and started shooting at the golems. Every golem, whether it is a natural one or an artificial one will have a core and once it is hit, it would be done for.
And unlike the Lava slime, it cannot move the core as it wished.
Sam barraged to golems with bullets with his two handguns as he tried to identify the core's location and soon both the golems fell. Sam noticed the location and the first thing he wanted to do was to reduce the numbers.
He changed the bullets and used the energy cell bullets and started shooting. A Grade-5 Golems that are equivalent to the Nascent stage are down for one hit. They don't have enough intelligence to even dodge. As for the Grade-6 ones, he was able to do it for a few more hits. As for two bosses, he would need an energy cell the size of an RPG to get through that and he doesn't have one.
And they don't even have any rage for the loss of their kin.
After reducing their numbers by a bit, Sam aimed his guns at the owls. He didn't aim for their heads though, he aimed for their wings. They might be fast and they might be fierce, but they are birds and they need wings to fly.
