Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam, Kumar, and Noah are watching the Young lady of the Myriad beast sect march forward with the troops. She is holding a scroll in her hands and it seems to be the same scroll the previous leader sent back to the city.

When she reached the first trap, she created a tight-knit formation with the shields all over themselves and tried to march forward. But then she realized that their strategy is not enough because, the sheer force from each spear drilled through the shield like it was nothing and as if they were being aimed by a person, the next spear directly went through that hole and lodged itself into the cultivator holding that shield.

It took a lot of effort on their part to cross the trap, but just before they thought, they are about to leave the trap, something happened that destroyed the rear end of their formation.

The energy stopped condensing into small spears and started condensing in the middle of the giant formation as it became a large spear. The spear hit the rear end perfectly killing ten people.

The Young lady didnʼt use the beasts in this formation as most of her forceʼs beasts are too big to be used in these narrow areas and even if they were used, according to the records in the scroll, they are not much use in these types of formations, in fact, they are a bit of a drawback.

So, she made everyone carry them in the beast pouches to avoid extra losses in the form of beastsʼ death.

This made the cultivators the only target for the spear and ten of them died and a dozen more lost their limbs in that last attack.

But unlike their predecessor who led the troops, the young lady didnʼt bother to stop for recovery.

She seemed to have a large stash of high-level pills and potions, she fed them to the injured and made them move forward while they took the energy recovery drugs. By the time they reached the next trap, they more or less recovered.

She turned towards her troops and said.

”Everyone, you should be careful in the next trap. Nobody knows who will be attacked first, they would be coiled with some vines and it is almost impossible to escape death if you were caught.

I do have a plan for this, but we donʼt know how well it works.

If something happens, there is a high possibility the rest of us wouldnʼt be able to save you. So, be careful and donʼt get caught up in the first place.”

She told them and waved her hand making a beast named Black Flame Serpent appear in front of her.

The Serpent started spewing black flames towards the forest path as it moved forward and the rest of the troops followed that path that was burned to oblivion.

But Noah who is looking at this, couldnʼt help but sneer.

Her traps are particularly set to be fireproof in fact, they grow faster with the fire. Particularly, when one of the vines is already activated and it was attacked with the flames, the rest of the vines connected to it will grow at a crazy pace.

But this lady who thought she is destroying all the traps didnʼt know that with her move, almost all the traps would be triggered and she would be facing much more severe damage than the rest.

And as she thought, soon the Serpent itself became the victim of the first vine. The vine coiled around its tail as it greedily sucked the energy out of the large serpent.

*HIIISSSS*”

The large serpent hissed angrily and all the troops stopped in their tracks. The serpent aimed its head at its tail and started spewing black flames at it.

It has resistance to its own fire, so it didnʼt bother holding back.

But to its surprise, as soon as it started spewing flames, not only did the vine become extremely resilient it grow faster and sucked its vitality faster, the rest of the vines around the path were also triggered instantly and they are after the troops.

The young lady who held the scroll but still fell in the traps felt like shit and Noah who looked at the trap felt better and since the two groups fell properly into the trap, she completely pushed the blame of the first failure to the guy who is already dead.

While they are looking at this group of people, suddenly something was triggered in the city hall they are staying in. One of the low-level administrators they used to make announcements came running towards them and informed them.

”There is a communication line from the front city. They are trying to contact us.”

Sam frowned at this and looked at the surveillance of the front city troops. They are still not at the canyon as they are waiting for their troops to come.

They are pretty anxious, but they still didnʼt dare to go back as they are afraid that they wouldnʼt be able to escape the traps this time.

So, they stayed where they are.

He is already feeling that something is up with the front city since they didnʼt even send any troops from the other side.

After some thought, he decided to check what the communication is about.

He followed the administrator to the communication room and looked at the large screen in front of him.

It seems like a pretty huge formation. This technology is similar to the intercity communication back on the desolate planet, but there are also some major differences.

He activated the formation and immediately a middle-aged fiend appeared in front of him on the screen.

The administrator was shocked. He didnʼt know what to do or say. He expected someone from the sect would be contacting them, but it turned out to be a fiend. He suddenly thought of what he was about to do and felt his throat run dry.

Sam is also a bit surprised. He is half expecting to have someone from the sect appear on the screen and threaten him until he felt bored.

”Hello, Are you Sam?”

The Middle-aged Fiend man asked with a smile. For some weird reason, his smile felt sinister and pure at the same time because of his fiend face.”

”Yes, I am. You are?”

”I am a member of the Fiend tribe. I am here on the orders of the tribe and sacked the front city. We were planning to march towards the city directly, but we got a scroll from the city leader here and it has some information about the traps. We assumed we set it up, so if you tell me how to deactivate it, we will be making our way to the city.”

Sam beamed with a smile in realization. The troops from the Fiend tribe are also here, now things would be interesting.

Sam replied.

”One of my teammates is near the traps. Tell your troops to march out of the city, he will be meeting right at the mouth of the first trap and bringing you all the way to the city.”

”How will you contact him though?”

”We have a method to do so.”

The fiend man just shrugged and the communication was cut off.

Sam went back to the surveillance room and shared the news with them.

”Kumar, I will drop you off at the forest and you need to go out and greet them, with any of our presence the traps wouldnʼt trigger so just go there and lead them here. They should be here before this lady reaches the city with her troops.

Make them move as fast as they can and tell them about the issue with this young ladyʼs troops.”

With that, Sam took Kumar away with the Dimensional drifter and dropped him at the forest patch.

He walked out of the forest patch and waited, within fifteen minutes, the fiend troops are there. They seemed to have moved at full speed to reach there.

Kumar went to the leader and explained the situation.

”From her attire, she should be a core disciple and her personal guards also seemed to be here,” Kumar explained and the middle-aged fiend man thought for a moment.

”I didnʼt expect they would deploy a core disciple this early, but this is also good news. She would be a perfect hostage to capture to hold them off for the time being. A core disciple too valuable, even more, valuable than a city for them.

So, we can plan something after capturing her.”

Kumar just listened to him and waited there, after that, they moved at full speed towards the forest patch and continued forward.

Meanwhile, back in the rear path, the core disciple couldnʼt help but take a rest this time. Everyone was injured and felt weak at the moment and they couldnʼt make do like the first time, so they made a camp.

Sam felt relieved with this. The more time the core disciple wasted, the better it is for them. If the two troops arrive at the city at the same time, that would be for the best.
