Chapter 1809 - 1809 New Visitors

1809 New Visitors

Sam didn’t know what clan leader 1 is talking about.

But he is not really worried about it.

There are only limited actions a person could take as a counter to Sam’s approach. There is no need for him to worry as long as the actions of the Clan leader fall under those categories.

He can navigate through all of this.

While the clan leaders stopped their search and started reporting to Clan leader 1, Sam started making his next move.

He appeared in one of the segments where the clan leaders already placed a formation.

As soon as he appeared there, the formation is triggered. The clan leader nearby stopped with the report and immediately made his move.

“He is within my territory. Join me quickly.”

It didn’t take long for the clan leader to come to the area where Sam was in, but Sam already disappeared before he could see.

.....

Sam came back to the room and looked at the confused clan leader through the projection and smiled.

He then activated one of the formation discs he placed. This disc is also placed in a segment adjacent to the first one he visited.

The formation revealed a projection of Sam. A pure hologram and it projected Sam jumping from one building to another. While the formation is active, Sam used the dimensional drifter to appear in the same segment as the hologram, triggering the alarm.

When the clan leader in charge of the segment heard this, he immediately became alert. The first thing that appeared in his sight though is actually the holographic projection of Sam.

Meanwhile, Sam carefully concealed himself and set up another inscription in an empty alleyway within the same segment.

He disappeared after he is done and reappeared in the room. He turned off the formation disc.

He repeated the same thing again and again.

He activated a formation before he appeared in a segment, triggered the alarm and when the other party is confused with the hologram, Sam just laid down the inscription in a corner of the same segment.

Even Clan leader 1 who was calm and collected until now was driven crazy by this.

He didn’t understand what Sam is doing. All he is doing is just making the clan leaders run around a bit. As for destroying everything in a segment as soon as Sam appeared, it is completely out of their question.

Clan leader 1 explicitly stated that no matter what happens, there shouldn’t be any loss of life of the citizens. He is very particular about this.

Of course, the other clan leaders would have liked it if they didn’t have to care about them. They would have just destroyed the whole segment with a wide-range attack. Then things would have been simpler.

Even if Sam is not dead, they would still injure him, increasing their chances of capture.

Meanwhile, the three-hour time limit is over.

But Sam didn’t change the location once again. He just stayed there waiting for the rest of the clan leaders to come.

With this cycle, all the twenty-five clan leaders would have had a single chance to capture Sam and Maya, because they managed to get their locations. After another three hours, a new fresh random set of five clan leaders will get the information once again.

At this moment, Sam couldn’t help but think of what Lucifer is thinking about this.

The very reason that Lucifer put this three-hour notification to the clan leaders is to increase Sam’s difficulty.

After all, three hours is limited. He cannot do much in three hours if he really wants to fight against a Divine Plane cultivator. He needs some preparations.

So, Sam should have less time planning and more time worrying about his safety. But now things are getting easier and easier.

He doesn’t really have to worry about many things at the moment. He can just use this notification to his advantage and make the Divine Plane cultivators fight each other.

The first plan even yielded great success. Magman clan leader died successfully. This means, his strategy is working and now with the improved strategy, Sam is going to yield many more results.

As Sam kept on using the same move of appearing in some random place, placing a formation disc, and diverting the attention of the Divine Plane cultivators, the clan leaders finally had enough.

They all started pushing clan leader 1 to evacuate the citizens and after that much pressure, he couldn’t do much.

He immediately ordered the citizens to evacuate and retreat into the clan grounds.

He even sent away some of the weaker guard members. While he is directing that, the other three clan alliance members came looking for clan leader 1.

“We got the news of Sam’s location that he is in this city.”

Clan leader 1 frowned and said.

“Of course, I know that you got the news.”

“No, that’s not what I meant. We got the news again, a few minutes ago.”

“What do you mean? Why would you get the news again?”

“We don’t know. But we feel like there might be a pattern here. What happened when you got the news? Did you get any relevant information from Magman?”

Clan leader 1 frowned and thought for a moment and he suddenly realized something.

“Magman clan leader and four other clan leaders also got the news just like we did, but they got the news way before we did and they were ambushed by Sam in the abandoned cave tunnels.

From the calculation, it is approximately three hours before we got the news.”

“So, how long is it before we got the news?”

“I think you guys got it just after three hours we got and now almost three hours later, you guys got the news again. And the judging by how many people got the news at the time…”

Clan leader 1 realized the pattern, but more questions came instead of answers. After all, they are getting the news from the gods they worship.

They are confused about why all of their gods that belonged to completely different religions are working in the same pattern. This made him feel like something is a bit fishy. But one thing he understood is that according to the pattern, he will get some more visitors.

So, he decided to speed up the evacuation process.

Sam didn’t wait while they are doing this, instead, he kept on repeating the same thing again and again. Within thirty minutes, he managed to repeat the action fifteen times and he didn’t stop there. As for evacuating the inn, no one bothered to do that.

Same with the buildings very close to the clan grounds’ entrance.

Even the clan leaders believed, they will catch Sam easily if he is there since at least two clan leaders are present in the area all the time.

Meanwhile, the new batch of clan leaders already arrived.

There are only three of them of course. Now there are a total of thirteen clan leaders in one place.

Clan leader 1 used his tongue to make them agree to join in the whole thing. While these negotiations are happening, Sam didn’t trigger a single alarm, which kind of made all the existing clan leaders a bit suspicious.

The three new clan leaders of course didn’t really care that much as they didn’t experience Sam’s cat-and-mouse play.

“With your presence here, things would be much simpler. We are just about to take the hard approach right now. You are going to be assigned some segments. Whenever an alarm is triggered because of Sam’s presence, attack without hesitation.

The only precaution you need to take is to make sure that he doesn’t die on the spot.”

Clan leader 1 sent the new three clan leaders to different segments and of course, he let a clan leader each accompany them.

He thought that since they were directly making a big move, it would be easy to capture Sam.

But little did he know, Sam is actually waiting for this exact moment and his attention is focused on the projection in his room.

He looked as if one of the old clan leaders is bringing one of the new clan leaders to a segment that he already rigged with multiple inscriptions.

Sam looked at Maya who is also keenly observing what is happening.

She watched as Sam crazily jumped back and forth. She didn’t understand what he was doing. But judging from the expression right now, she could fairly say that Sam is finally about to do something that she might understand.

Sam smiled and said.

“This is going to be fun.”

As he said, he shot an energy beam straight into the projection, triggering one of the inscriptions that he laid down in the segment.

At that exact moment, in the city segment, he targeted, the old clan leader is explaining how the alarm works to the new clan leader.

The new clan leader is attentively listening to it. But all of a sudden, he felt a sense of dread creeping up his heart.
