Chapter 1065: Next Target
Sam is completely nonchalant of the destruction he caused. He just took out the corrosion liquid cell he used just now and threw it away and put another liquid energy cell as he continued shooting casually.
This time, he used the wind elemental liquid energy cell and threw and changed the gun back to the initial single shot mode.
He got a clean hit on one of the temple members and that guy turned into a finely shredded meat and bones.
He kept on shooting one guy after another and the golems. Because of the corrosive poison used on the temple head, he is actually in a pretty vulnerable state and the Night Ghost didn't dare to be lax in front him, even in that situation.
After all, the other party is sure that he would lose his life, so there is no saying that he wouldn't use some crazy move that could cause some serious destruction.
So, their battle lasted longer almost to the end. And for that reason, the family head had to see every temple member constantly dying in Sam and the rest of the team's hands.
The whole scene looked tragic.
By an hour before noon, finally everything is over. It took longer than they initially thought, but still everything was cleanly done. No one was spared and every golem was destroyed. All that left of them is the rubble, mushed meat and some bones.
One more time, Sam only wanted money, he didn't want anything else the rest of the team divided the loot.
Night Ghost used some of the containers made by the empty spirit stones and collected the souls of the family members one by one.
He even stored the temple head's soul without consuming it. Because as soon as he swallowed a Middle stage transcendent stage soul, he knew that he is going to breakthrough.
So, he hurriedly collected all the souls that he can and sat there down to breakthrough. Everyone looked at him with envious expression. Ever since they formed a team, they all have this invisible peer pressure that their cultivation is not fast enough and they are not strong enough.
They wanted to breakthrough desperately. Everyone is cultivating harder than ever and they are pushing towards breakthrough stronger than ever. But still, they couldn't help but feel a bit of envy when their team mates were breaking through and this raised the competitive spirit of others even more.
Sam just gave the Night Ghost a glance before walking towards the inverted tower.
There are some people who wanted to enter the tower to protect themselves, but they couldn't find an entry point with the thunder prison covering the entrance.
Sam removed the thunder prison and jumped inside the inverted tower as he looked inside, he couldn't help but feel anger surge once again. There are cells that are barely enough to fit the gorillas around the tower and there are chains hanging to the wall. At this moment the gorillas are currently free and sitting there as they drunk some wine and fruit juice ape gave them, they are sighing as they felt the injuries heal on their hands and legs.
At least, he could find some relief in the fact that they are healing.
As he went down the level of the beasts kept on increasing and when he landed there he saw a bunch of Astral Plane cultivators surrounding Ape and the little gorilla as they looked at the screen.
It is currently showing the current situation on the battlefield.
When the gorillas sensed Sam's presence, they looked at him with a fearful expression.
Sam couldn't help but sigh, he is currently reeking of blood.
There are many idiots who thought that they could kill Sam if they closed the distance. But they died nonetheless and their blood splattered on him. The gorillas don't like blood. They are tame creatures.
Sam felt like a stupid for not thinking of this simple matter.
He wanted to return later after he cleaned himself up, so he turned around and got ready to get away, but the little gorilla suddenly yelled at him and ran towards Sam, trying pull him back.
He looked at Sam's serious expression and offered the small barrel of fruit juice he is sipping through the bamboo straw.
Sam was surprised. He smiled and sat down, before taking a sip of the fruit juice. The gorilla looked at him anxiously afraid that he would drink it all, which made him chuckle.
Sam sat down on the ground and he took out a barrel giving it to the little one who smelled the fragrance and immediately hugged it.
Soon, the rest of the gorillas came towards Sam as they hugged him before climbing the stairs that led upwards.
Sam felt relieved and looked at the ape. They also slowly started walking out of the tower. He asked the ape to tell the gorillas that they wouldn't be safe in this place even if they were to run away into the forest. Since no race here is familiar with them, the beasts in the forest wouldn't hesitate to hunt them down.
So, he wanted to take them into the divine dimension, they would stay there for a while, until Sam found a way to their home realm and leave them there to join the rest of their kin.
Ape talked to them and repeatedly reassured them that Sam is not cheating them. After a while, they agreed, but they wanted to spend one more day here in the area and bury the whole tower with their own hands.
Sam nodded and left Ape and Yanwu there to escort them to their camp in the forest the next day. Night Ghost also stayed there as he is in the middle of the breakthrough.
Sia, Gran and Kiran also wanted to return. But the remaining people stayed there with Night Ghost just in case.
The next day, they came back to their camp in the forest along with the Gorillas. When they returned to the camp, they are looking at Sam weirdly.
Sam didn't care much, he is still recovering from the shitty mood he had yesterday and is focusing on their next target. Their next target is a bit far away and the merchants here don't have any connections with that place. They decided to leave.
Sam put all the gorillas in the divine dimension, where they could recover their mental states with some idle sculpting he already placed a bunch of large stones suitable for them and even arranged a small orchard so that they can busy themselves.
After he was done they left to their next place in the dimensional drifter.
But what Sam doesn't know is that the sculptor gorillas did something else other than just trying to bury the inverted tower with the rubble of the temple and golems.
The temple is on the edge of the city which is backed by a small stony cliff.
And at this moment, the people in the city are all looking at with awe. Because in just a single night the gorillas sculpted an image on the cliff and all of them did it together.
That is the sculpture of Sam, holding his gun and hovering over harbinger as he shot everyone. The nonchalance that stemmed from immense anger can be seen on his face.
The sculpture so large that the Zeus statue which was left intact and left alone in that place looked small and miniscule in front of it.
Sam doesn't know they did it, the gorillas didn't say it. Because they didn't specifically do it for him. This is the first art they sculpted in months, they did it because that image what came to their mind whenever they looked at their free limbs and tasted the sweet fruits.
As for why the team didn't say it, because, they can see that Sam is still angry for some reason, so they don't want to provoke him. Particularly when they remembered the damage the gun could cause. They became cautious because of it and even the Saber Monarch who is always suffering from verbal diarrhea didn't dare open his mouth carelessly.
Even if he knew about it, Sam might have not cared.
They reappeared in their next target location and as soon as they stepped foot there, they were hit by a cold sensation.
All they could see are the white snow-covered land with the white wind blowing on their face.
The scenery is beautiful and they are currently on top of a small hill. Far away they could see a city that looked like it was completely made of ice.
They got off the hill and started their journey towards the city. But when they reached the city, they were surprised to learn that the family they are looking for is currently not staying in the city. They migrated away.
They are looking for a Demi-Giant family which is part of Hou Yi's followers.
This is one of the banished races that are suffering from the curse. They are sure that they would be present here, but they didn't expect that they would have migrated completely.
After getting the directions of their new location, the team started their journey once again.
