Chapter 611: Mess (2/2)
He took the scroll and read it right there and when he saw the contents he couldn't help but feel frustrated.
Chatur who is standing beside him was extremely curious and tried his best to take a peek through his peripheral vision.
”Don't try so hard. You can read it directly.” Sam said and passed it to him before looking at the messenger.
”Tell them, I will take it. But make sure you mention one thing. He owes me for this separately.”
”Are you sure you want me to deliver such an impudent message to the Emperor?” The messenger asked coldly.
”Why? You got a problem doing your duty? I am already pissed by that message, you better not provoke me now and I am pretty sure that the emperor wouldn't mind some collateral damage in exchange for the part of his debt he will owe me.”
With that, he didn't even bother and said to Chatur.
”Is the information you gave me is the only information you have on that spot? Did you leave any minor details?”
”No. But are you sure you want to do this? I know you can make a great amount of damage with the guns, but this squad is completely different.
This is the Elite Canine squad we are talking about and their top fifteen are something to be wary of. They wouldn't certainly be easy victims of the guns. They are elites of the elites.”
”But what can I do? That Flavos special commander happened to be an imperial family member. The Emperor of Flavos is his uncle and do you know what that makes him?”
”He is also a nephew of the Mov Empress, who is the sister of the Flavos emperor.”
”And you have seen the message, we have to save him right away. If he dies, the consequences are something Mov cannot handle and that would disrupt my expansion plans.
Why don't you take out everything you have about that resource point?”
This is the third weekly resource point Sam wanted to take back from the sect and this flavos guy beat him to it, but the sect pulled one over this guy and surrounded the resource point with their troops. If not for the fact, they came after Nagin Castle sent the reinforcement to secure the castle, the troops would have dealt with them easily.
Now, they are using the terrain that was at least giving them the advantage to keep themselves alive.
And Sam doesn't know how these guys held up for three days against the elite squad when they lost around sixty to seventy people against the squad that stood defense.
If the squad is really as elite as he heard them be, then there shouldn't be any form of a problem to wipe the floor with them.
He felt like he is missing something. But he couldn't pinpoint it. But he doesn't have time to think of it and started his journey.
The next resource point is a small hill and has a flat peak with a tree on it.
The tree gives a fruit every week and it is kind of weird because every time, the fruit differs. Sometimes, it is water, sometimes it is fire and sometimes it is lightning. The element changes and it doesn't aid in cultivation. It increases the energy control and efficiency of the techniques.
For all its worth, the fruit is useful for everyone and anyone who uses spiritual energy.
But the hill is full of trees and caves and holes all over it and they can hide properly and easily. The only problem is that now the hill is completely surrounded.
From all the sides.
They traveled for four hours and reached there by the late afternoon. But he didn't reach the place directly, they took a high vantage point and looked over.
From the side he could see, there are tents all over, and at that exact moment, a few groups are returning from the hill. They have various beast mounts. All of them are canines and they are foxes, wolves, bears, hyenas, etc.
But what surprised him is the things that these mounts are dragging down with them.
They are corpses. Corpses of the Nagin castle members.
