Chapter 1157: Golem Sect
Sam thought for a moment since he assumed that they are in open view for the other party, he decided to make an open camp. He would make a setup that would make the troops to hesitate to attack them even if they are out in the open.
They stopped at the nearest lake and Sam threw the ice divine dimension in. They are going to camp inside that.
Outside, he made a setup with small energy cells creating formations for controlled explosions.
After that, he went in and met with the recovering team.
Tamas and Night Ghost already started with memory extraction along with Sam's specter.
Sam also joined in with the memory extraction and within the next fifteen minutes, Sam obtained all the information needed. But he is not exactly in a hurry to look through it, he checked up on his teammates and the prisoners first.
They are injured. Particularly, the solar fragment twins and Jwala. Their injuries may not be critical but they are not exactly light either.
Sam immediately started treating them as he was filled with thoughts. The battles would only get tougher as they moved and these people wouldn't be able to fare any better. He shook his head off his thoughts. He would deal with it after the first three organizations were dealt with.
After he was done with healing everyone, he gave them heavenly wine. He was generous this time and gave a pitcher each and finally, he sat down to analyze the information.
After five minutes, he finally opened his eyes with a frown. He came out of the lake and stood on the bank to take a look around. Finally, his gaze stopped on a small bird sitting on the tree. He went back into the lake and entered the divine dimension.
He finally got an explanation for all the shit that has happened.
From the information he gathered from the three forces, the puppet organization, the black ghosts, and people with the golems, he managed to find out what exactly happened and how exactly he was found out.
This can all be related to the incident with Dayus and his scheme to deal with Sam.
The real perpetrator behind Dayus is not exactly the outer deacon of the five great sects, in fact, he is only a mediator.
It turned out that the outer deacon doesn't have any notable power to mess with the organizations like the puppet organization.
It turns out there is a rule that higher-level organizations shouldn't kill the lower-level organizations directly, as for who made this rule and who enforced it, Sam doesn't know yet. But because of that rule, the outer deacon of the five great sects don't have any authority to do anything here.
But with the support of someone even more powerful, he managed to do this.
As for the reason, this certain someone supports him, it turned out Sam has pissed off some bigshots without even knowing.
The stone temple and the tundra sect he destroyed before belong to a certain large organization and they are direct subordinate branches.
And this large organization is The Golem Sect which is a high-level power and currently something even Sam didn't want to go and meet without at least a month of preparation.
The young men with stone golems belonged to that golem sect and they are the ones that made contact with the outer deacon of the five great sects which is a lower-level organization the Golem sect.
The Golem sect cannot interfere with the puppet organization, but if an organization lower than them interferes, they can enforce rules and deal with them. So, they wanted to use the five great sects as stepping stones and deal with Sam and if the plot is revealed, they promised to save the Outer deacon in process of enforcing rules.
In this way, they tried to deal with Sam.
But after the plan failed, the puppet organization investigated the issue with the help of Black Ghosts and they managed to find this thread and the puppet organization used the black ghosts to mediate between them and establish contact with them.
Now, these youngsters came with some tricks and toys of their sect and used them to not only find Sam's location as soon as he arrived, but they also brought a space gate formation disc that has a certain range to transport the troops here.
They moved a lot of troops from the puppet organization as well as the other subordinate organizations of the Golem sect just like the stone temple and the Tundra Sect.
He also gained another piece of information and that is the vastness of the Golem sect and the different factions in it and it also turned out that the biggest opponent behind Sam's tail is not actually the Earth Golem faction, rather the Ice Golem faction who is also the current leader of the Golem sect.
It turned out that the divine dimension was given to one of the trusted aides of the Ice golem faction because the father of the tundra sect's head who is the disciple of that faction was the one who obtained it. He managed to slip it through the higher-level organizations and obtained the ice divine dimension at a high cost.
So, in order to avoid the eyes of the rest of the factions and the higher organizations, they immediately gave it to the Tundra sect head and sent him to a lower level realm to recruit the disciples for their faction.
They didn't think that divine dimension is some kind of storage device that Sam uses. It is a valuable resource. So, they wanted to keep the resource to themselves and only bring it up after they reached a certain level. As for why the Ice golem faction didn't inform the rest of the faction, it is because this was a secret that only they hold, in fact from the information he got, there are three more divine dimensions in the Golem sect, but they are combined riches of the sect, but this one belongs to the Ice Golem faction alone.
But this secret spilled when the Ice Golem faction is trying to reach out to Sam which the Earth Golem faction took advantage of and threw them off the trail and started this plot.
There is also something that piqued Sam's interest. The members of the Golem sect are all referring to the divine dimensions as divine dimension fragments, not divine dimensions.
Sam doesn't know the difference between the two, but he could tell that the ice divine dimension is different from his own divine dimension. His own divine dimension felt close, it is like an independent world of itself. But the ice divine dimension and the lightning divine dimension, he had at hand, didn't give him the same feeling. But he didn't have to time analyze the differences until now. So, he put it aside. Now that he heard them referring to it as a fragment, he once again thought of these differences.
Once again, he didn't have time. He needs to wait for a few days to get any answers. At least, he needs to deal with the puppet organization first and can think later.
After he digested the information he went back to his team and said.
"You guys rest properly. We wouldn't do anything until tomorrow. Be careful."
With that Sam arrived outside of the divine dimension and floated over the lake on the back of harbinger. He sat on the board while the spirit carried out the task as he looked around.
He is looking for the things that are used to find his location upon his arrival.
While he is busy, the city and the third branch of the puppet organization are in an all-time chaotic state.
As soon as Sam passed the orders, Kiran, Arkiv, and the first young master started taking action.
They didn't dare delay even for a second.
Kiran infiltrated the city guards immediately and joined in as he placed the small liquid energy cells in different places according to Sam's formation. When the city guards noticed that something is wrong, with Arkiv's help he silently killed them and while he took action, the first young master finished the remaining job secretly.
After that, they disappeared from the spot and immediately escaped.
They placed the dead bodies of the city guards at the gate in the middle of the formation area and left before anyone else spotted them.
They were fast and left many traces of their presence and the presence of battle at the city gate, but they didn't bother taking care of it and left it there.
When the troops that escaped started coming back to the city gate, they noticed the pile of corpses of the city guards in the middle and frowned.
The standard practice is that if someone spots something near the city gates, they would inform first and let the puppets engage before directly taking action, but here there are no signs of it, as it was almost an inside job.
When the people started investigating, Kiran who is looking at it from faraway, activated the formation.
