Chapter 1161: Compromise
First young master placed the formation disc on the center of the long table as he stood calmly after explaining the 'suspicions' he had about his subordinates.
The formation master who has highest level of understanding and comprehension started examining the formation disc carefully.
Branch leader looked at the first young master's hand. He is holding a communication token. Observing his gaze, the first young master explained.
"My other subordinate is injured and currently unconscious, I am waiting for him to wake up."
The branch leader nodded in understanding and didn't bother talking anymore. He is waiting for the results of the inspection on the formation plate.
At this exact moment…
The communication token of one of the elders and the communication token of the first young master both started glowing.
The first young master took out a token and crushed it at the same time he took out a transference scroll.
The branch leader who saw this, immediately became vigilant and was about to capture the first young master, but at this moment, the formation disc in the hands of the formation master clicked a bit and a bunch of mini liquid energy cells jumped outside instantly as they shot towards different directions in the room.
Most of the people in the room were shot directly while some managed to dodge or block it which is not exactly useful as they exploded.
Before they could even explode, the first young master already disappeared from the spot.
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
As series of explosions happened and they were followed by a bunch of explosions in the city. Arkiv who looked at the flashy explosions outside also activated his scroll and disappeared from the spot.
Kiran looked at the guards that were chasing him and showed them his middle finger before disappearing as well.
Soon, three flashes appeared at the lake near a metal pillar.
Sam is standing by the metal pillar as he counted the time carefully.
When the three flashes materialized into three people. He smiled and nodded.
The metal pillar is one of his new inventions. It acts a spatial node. It can be used a node for the transference scrolls he created. When the users activated the transference scrolls they would appear at this pillar.
This can stored and moved. But the transference scrolls can only be used when it was stationary. This is in fact his first test. If this pillar was not there or didn't work properly the users would be transferred far away like a normal transference scrolls.
He checked the results and then spoke to the three.
"Ice divine dimension is placed under the lake. Go and rest properly. We can talk later."
Sam said as he used the surveillance puppets to take a peek at the state of the city.
The current city is in chaos. There is no previous majesty or any signs of it being a normal city. It looked more like a ruin. If not for the presence of active elemental energy which is cause of this destruction, it would perfectly go as the ruin.
Along with the city, even the estate was not spared exactly.
Particularly in the hidden room where every key person involved in the previous attack was gathered.
It was in a state of a complete mess.
A few corpses could be seen lying around and a few people that survived didn't expect unscathed. And in the current state, Sam managed to direct his surveillance puppets directly to this room without any problem or resistance.
He looked at the scene and smiled. He then thought of something and took out a silver pigeon before sending it to the puppet organization branch. He placed a scroll in the spatial ring it was carrying.
When the branch leader, who has severe burns all over his body looked at the silver pigeon dropping the spatial ring, he took it and saw the scroll inside.
He opened the scroll while groaning in pain as he read through it.
"This is Sam, the one you wanted to deal with so badly.
We didn't have any enmity in the past and all of this destruction started with your organization pinning something on me. Of course, I wanted the furnace and that was the reason to.
Anyway, I am giving you a chance. Give me the furnace body and I will leave this realm. All things would be settled. But if you insist on continuing the war, then I wouldn't be courteous. You have two days.
After these two days, I will be started my attack.
By the way, give a message to the golem sect members.
They don't need to try and get to me. It wouldn't be too long before I come and find them."
That was the only thing on the scroll.
The branch leader came out of the building and looked at the city in ruins.
It seems like he made a mistake by attacking Sam directly. They lost a lot of people there and the core force is clearly injured. The rest of the people wouldn't be able to defend themselves against Sam and his teammates.
At the same time, it seems like Ambush has triggered Sam. After all, even when he was dealing with the second branch, he took his time, but now he directly dealt with them using all these tricks.
The branch leader fell into deep thought. But what he doesn't know is that he is clearly overthinking too much.
The reason Sam didn't attack the second branch is that the lockdown came too sudden and he didn't have any method to send things inside. He can only talk with his teammates.
If he had a chance to send the things inside, he would have directly blasted the formations and would have just finished everything off in two days.
Now, there are three moles inside with a full arsenal of supplies. He can easily destroy the formation and the surprise attacks are ample. He can definitely defeat everyone other than the branch leader and some high-level elders with just his toys.
His team would easily deal with them after all this destruction was brought upon themselves.
The branch leader didn't know all of this, so he only thought that Sam made his move because he was ambushed before.
After all, in his opinion, all of these explosives and attacks Sam made would cost a lot. The things that could bring upon such destruction are bound to be expensive.
While he was thinking calmly, the golem sect member nearby collected the corpses of his comrades.
All of the golem sect members died and only he who was far away and managed to use his golem as a cushion managed to survive.
He looked at the destruction brought upon by this explosion.
When the branch leader saw his panicked expression, he sighed said.
"Young master. I would like you to leave this place. I will safely escort you to the wormhole. We are not willing to fight this war anymore."
The nervous youngster looked at the branch leader in a daze for a while and nodded.
The branch leader acted on it immediately. He took out some high-level medicine and healed the young man, before handing him over to some female attendants so that he would wash up and get ready. After everything was done and he calmed down a bit, the branch leader personally sent him to the wormhole and sent him off.
After that, he went to the core area where the forging process would happen and stopped in front of the furnace in the middle of it all.
The body of the furnace is made with the bones of a large fire elemental creature and it is extremely powerful.
He turned the furnace off and cut the supply from the fire elemental mine.
After that, he carefully dismantled the furnace and took off the body.
It took over an hour, by now the sun has already set.
He brought the furnace body in a spatial ring to the city gate and placed it outside before standing nearby.
He waited there calmly without even healing his injuries.
The sunset and it is already dark, but he just stood there.
After some time, Night Ghost arrived and looked at him.
"This is the furnace body. We don't want this war anymore."
The leader said in a low voice.
Night Ghost nodded and stored the body in his spatial ring. He then took out another spatial ring and tossed it towards the branch leader.
"The compensation for the furnace. It would help your organization to rebuild. It is better to go into seclusion for a while."
With that, he left.
The branch leader looked at the spatial ring with a wry and exhausted expression. He didn't expect much about this compensation and went back to his organization.
He sat in his room after washing up with an exhausted expression. He sighed every now and then and started getting drunk.
After a while, he looked at the spatial ring that the Night ghost gave him and looked at the contents which made him instantly sober.
