Chapter 843: Plan (1/2)

Sam, Arkiv, and Arman are sitting on a tree.

The crucifixion was already noticed by the feathered city.

The open patch in the middle of the forest is not exactly hard to notice. But the feathered didn't touch the bodies, they just surrounded the area and looked around to see if they could find the three of them.

But the three of them are sitting far away looking at it through the telescope. Soon, they saw a person who seemed to have a high status come out of the entrance and enter this patch.

He saw the two crucified bodies, but he didn't touch it. He only touched the two recording crystals which is almost part of the skin now.

He looked at his subordinates and said.

”Take them down first and examine their bodies, before you take them in and perform the burial. Take those recording crystals out and see what is inside.”

The soldiers started taking them down and pulled the crystals out.

For the first body, the crystal pulled some flesh along with it as if it was attached to it by some glue, but it still came out. On the other side, the second crystal took something else out.

There is some metallic piece attached to the recording crystal and as soon as they pulled it out…

*BOOM*

An explosion happened and the purple smoke spread all over along with the bright orange and blue flames.

When the dust settled, the person who pulled the crystal was dead, the people that are near him are also dead. The rest of the group standing there are all infected by the poison.

They could feel their blood burning and their bodies feeling weak and corroding.

Even the person that came and gave orders was the same.

Sam who is watching everything through the telescope spoke.

”When will they ever be smart enough to not just pull down the corpses directly without examining them? One-touch and use of spiritual sense would be enough.”

”No one thinks that someone would use the dead bodies to set traps like this. What do you think of everyone? As retarded as you? They think normally, they assume that you have the decency to respect the dead bodies.”

Arkiv replied snidely.

”Respecting dead bodies. I don't think there is a place for morals and virtues on a battlefield, particularly when one side is overpowering the other with numbers, strength, and resources. The highest level of respect I can give them is to use any means possible for me to defeat them. Any more than that, it is impossible for now.”

”Just imagine your dead body being used like that? You wouldn't feel good right?” Arkiv asked as he looked at Sam.

Sam chuckled at Arkiv's persistence on this matter. This is what he has been doing for a while. Even though he didn't object, he did make sure that he didn't like it.

”Answer me, Sam. How would you feel if it was your body?”

”If my body turns into a dead body one day, then I will make sure that no one else is alive around me to use like that, I will make sure that no one would come anywhere near until my body becomes one with earth.”

Arkiv didn't know what to speak of that. Sam continued with a smile.

”I don't know why you are so aversive to this method. But since you are like that, I didn't force you to use them. But remember this, you cannot provoke an enemy and expect them to fight in a way you want, you cannot ask help from an ally and criticize them on how they help. Both of them are hypocritical and entitled.”

With that, they left to do the remaining tasks.

Meanwhile, at the explosion zone, the people that are still hurting with the poison are squealing in pain and the feathered who are stationed on the city walls came looking for him.

They shifted them to the barracks and collected all the dead bodies that could be collected before giving them proper rituals.

After finishing that, one of the soldiers took the recording crystal which was placed on the first dead body with him.

Since the person who pulled this out is not too close to the explosion, he managed to survive with some wounds and poison. But the survival is not for long. They were taken into heal, but the healer has no clue about the poison.

While the feathered threw them in the temple pools to see if they could save them, the Queen and Priest are looking at the recording crystal which was safe.

They saw the recording of the two shadows feathered.

The Queen's aura raged like she was set on fire.

”How dare they? How dare they capture my sons? I will kill them. I will kill them.” The Queen yelled.
