Chapter 670: Plot (2/2)
He once again focused on the situation through the Crystal table while he took out the wine and took a huge swig.
The table usually consumes a lot of energy and now he even used his light element, the energy consumed is extremely high. There is no way he could take it without any other energy intake.
After recovering a bit, he observed the war. The Minotaurs are okay for a bit as they tried to survive, but Sam sent a series of messages to his friends and they became aggressive. All this while, even though they had the upper hand the scene looked like there is still a chance for Minotaurs for their superior members, but they are done immediately after this.
Two Minotaurs died in every location almost instantly. This made the rest of them afraid as they started retreating. They tried to wait for the commands from the Vampires, but they didn't give any commands for the past half an hour.
So they didn't care anymore and went back.
The enemies slowly retreated and felt the loss.
Sam just ordered for the cleanup and didn't chase them.
The Minotaurs are just pawns, there is no need for him to exert too much energy and suffer losses to deal with pawns. He has to wait for other pieces of the game to come out.
He did order one thing though. The Minotaurs with elemental affinity. Particularly the Nascent stage ones. He has to create his own chess teams. The first one would be the Minotaur team. All the pawns will be the Nascent stage Minotaurs with elemental affinity and he would collect them.
Even if he didn't manage to collect the rest of the pieces, he would leave them be for now. The second team is the undead team.
He is going to collect these Vampires, Ghouls, and Wights that are coming here.
Currently, he has six vampires and from what he heard, this town is being most troublesome and they already sent the call for the other vampires that took the other town.
They will be coming here soon enough and Sam also took out some tokens that would send the signal to the Vampires that are within the Minotaur territory gathering the troops.
The wights will still take two weeks to come. If Sam managed to gather the remaining sixteen Vampires, then that would be great, if not he would gather the vampires, ghouls and wights combined and make a chess team.
After training them properly within this chessboard, he would drill the obedience and subservience into their very souls and make them part of his army and troops.
They could become elites and would work solely for him and his organization.
As for why Sam is collecting these troops, it is simple. He doesn't know where he is going with these tasks from those gods. But he wants to be prepared for all kinds of scenarios. If there came a time where he would need an army behind him, he wouldn't be in a position where he would be a sitting duck, trying to gather an army on such short notice.
Sam shook those thoughts off of his head and started making preparations for the next attacks. Since the element of surprise is gone along with the wall, it is better for him to add another line of defense to replace the wall and he once again felt like using the water.
While Sam is planning for the immediate future in a distant place, someone is plotting to end his future.
Indra is currently in a meeting with some of the gods.
He just finished speaking his mind on what he is planning and the rest of the gods couldn't help but feel a bit ashamed of him.
”Indra, you are the king of all the Lesser gods within the Hindu realm. Don't you feel it is beneath you to be this petty to plot this much against a player? You have been getting more and more brazen. You might not have experienced the same tribulations like everyone else to become the god you are now, but you should at least think of your position and honor before you do something like this.”
Kartikeya pointed his finger at him angrily and stood up.
”Hmph, do you really think you can talk to me like that? You are also a god belonging to the Hindu realm, don't forget that I am a king to you too.”
Kartikeya suddenly release his aura and looked at Indra coldly. The whole room was filled with the stench of blood.
”Do you believe me, I can destroy you right now and go beg for forgiveness from Brahma who put you in this position.
I bet that he wouldn't do much to me, except for some small punishment as long as I don't cripple you. After all, my father is the destroyer of the realms, no one wants to get on his bad side and that includes the creator.
Do you want to give it a try?”
He said as a spear appeared in his hand and he stabbed it into the table in front of him.
Indra gulped nervously.
Kartikeya looked at him and smirked before saying.
”I didn't think so. So, you better watch your tongue. The only reason you are the king is the rest of the gods disdain that position that includes me. I could dethrone you in my sleep if I want to.”
With that, he withdrew his spear and left the place.
But Indra didn't stop his plan. He looked at the rest of the gods and said.
”My plan is still on the table.”
He looked at another person and said.
”You are the one who is sending the next Palace of inheritance. I am not asking you to make it unfair to him, all you have to do is change the next Palace of Inheritance. I would give you all that I promised if you support this proposal.”
The rest of them thought for a bit and they nodded after negotiating for a better price. They felt like their players can suffer a bit for this.
”We will see you in the meeting.” With those words, everyone left.
