Chapter 965: Creatures (2/2)

But as he moved forward, he saw that there are some new meteors that are falling down. These didn't look that different from the normal meteors. Rather they are quite similar to golems and others. But the only difference is that they are extremely orderly.

All this while, when the meteors are crashing down, they also crashed each other because of the trajectories. But the current meteors are completely orderly as if they already have a flight path designed.

Sam halted in his tracks and looked at the meteors that fell on the open plain field. He was surprised by what he saw next. Some weird creatures started popping up from within the meteor strikes.

They looked like humanoid creatures with the skull that shaped like a giant praying mantis.

They have pale skin with different hues.

They have no lips and only circular holes for mouths and a large white tongue came out of it and shot itself into the ground as they sucked energy out of it and an energy barrier is being formed around them.

When Sam looked at them, he felt the same vibe as he did when he faced the sea folks. But these creatures looked completely different.

He trusted his instinct and took out the executioner sword as he moved forward. From his energy vision he could sense that they are not exactly strong. They are barely in intial stage of Initiation of Astral Plane.

He could take all of them on.

As he moved forward, the nearest creature stopped its actions and ran towards Sam while screaming in anger.

Sam dodged its attack and slashed his sword at it. The sword barely left a slash on the side of its abdomen, but the poisonous corrosion immediately started spreading all over it.

This is clearly something similar to seafolk.

Sam landed another slash and moved forward. These creatures occupied the whole field and there is no other way. At least, they are weak and there are no meteor strikes that he has to worry about. So, he slashed his way through the crowd.

By now, Gran already caught up and started attacking these creatures, she seemed to be extremely familiar with this as she used throwing knives to deal with each of these things instantly.

Both of them are almost back on an even playing field with Sam only having a lead of few dozen meters.

The battle went on and on and these creatures kept on coming forward.

After two hours, both of them finally managed to move to the other side after killing all the creatures and by now both of them are back tos square one with no lead whatsoever as they panted and moved towards the foot of the mountain.

Sam couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed. As Gran is familiar with these creatures, she managed to kill them in one shot without any waste of time, but he needed some time to get used to it and he was unable to keep the lead he created with so much struggle.

Currently, they are standing at the foot of the mountain as the sun slowly began to set while they took medicines to recover their energies.

It is almost as if they are starting a different race altogether.

After a few minutes of recovery, Gran started channeling her energy. Sam sensed the energy and felt extremely familiar with it.

He couldn't help but smile.

Because, she is using a merge of spatial energy and shadow energy. But the feeling he is getting from it is a bit different.

He couldn't put a finger on where. So, he used energy vision to take a look as she channeled her energy and prepared to move.

After looking at her closely, he finally found a bit of difference.

It is the method they tried to merge their energies.

Sam channeled both elemental energies together to merge and create fusion. To be precise he is using two partial fusions at the same time at a perfect balance and ration.

But Gran took a completely different approach. When he saw this, he felt like he was an idiot to not to have tried that method before as it is more straightforward.
