Chapter 822: Surprise attack (1/2)
Sam didn't want to get into a war with these feathered right away.
He wanted to escape this area first, scout, and take action later. But everything happening here made him lose patience.
He would just use this chance to teach them a small lesson and also make them understand just why they should have stayed out of his way.
Sam took the blood scales and placed them back in the storage, they are currently not needed.
Yanwu and Sky are doing well. They are working as a team and already burned down a dozen feathered. But he still kept an eye over.
The Captain guided the rest of the feathered and is planning to surround Sam and then subdue the beasts after he was caught.
But Sam just smiled and aimed his guns.
He is only using the normal metallic bullets that are used to fire different elemental attacks.
His current choice is lightning.
He started shooting and the first two shots didn't miss, the two bullets lodged themselves into the chest of the feathered that is coming towards him and the lightning bullets paralyzed him. This made the feathered stop swinging his wings for a second and he became unstable.
Sam used this chance to shoot another two bullets into the wings.
He didn't aim for the head. He still has some reservations about starting the all-out war. He is in the middle of nowhere of the enemy territory, if he started a slaughter now, the situation would become dire. He has to find out where he is and where he needs to go before he could do anything drastic.
Even if he doesn't want to kill them, the damage is not laughable at. The Feathered that crashed into the ground screamed so loud that the rest of the feathered could feel his pain.
Sam didn't stop with that. He started shooting and he moved like a slippery eel in the water.
The advantage of the harbinger is clearly showing now. It is faster and it is more versatile than its wings.
The captain who was still confident a second was stunning.
One feathered after another is falling down and crashing into the ground.
Various elemental attacks are flying in the air rapidly and most of them are flying towards Sam, but not a single one landed.
She couldn't help but look down and feel pressured at the number of injured. The only silver lining of this is that none of them are killed. At least not yet.
The fight continued. The only person Sam was unable to hit is the captain.
She is faster and her combination of personal wings and the wind element are perfectly blending together and she is the only one who managed to dodge the bullets sent her way and even counter-attack.
The team surrounding Arkiv is currently hovering in the sky as they watched the battle, but Arkiv cannot do that as he is still locked inside the formation.
He really wanted to get out of the formation now, but he knew Sam wouldn't tell him to stop if there was not a good reason.
So, he decided to wait for a while. The only problem he wished he saw the battle happening far away.
The spot he was in doesn't have a good view. Most of it is covered by large trees. He can occasionally get a glimpse of Sky and Yanwu, but that is it.
He is even a bit frustrated.
Sam doesn't know that not the frustrating battle was making Arkiv frustrated just because he couldn't see. If he knew of this, he would have sent a bullet his way.
Now, Sam is already having a bit of trouble.
The feathered that are injured are moving down on orders of the captain. They are in no condition to fly, so they are walking.
The enemies are dwindling and soon the feathered that supposed to guard Arkiv also joined in the fun.
Now they are moving in a formation and Captain managed to save some feathered from the bullets. Even with the guns, it is becoming a bit difficult to deal with them now.
Soon he thought of a remedy.
He let the blood-red scales out and they are flying around in large circles.
Sam smiled and started shooting once again when the bullet went past the feathered and just when he thought he dodged it, the bullet hit the blood scale behind him and ricocheted the bullet towards another feathered.
The situation once again titled in Sam's favor.
The captain is losing her calm by now.
Sam has become a nightmare to her as he dealt with the feathered like they don't even matter. It is almost like a shooting practice to him.
Except for her and some others, no one is fast enough to dodge the bullets even if it is just Ricochet without any guidance.
So, she thought of something and gave the order for everyone to retreat.
