Chapter 749: Sending a Message
Sam felt his body being crushed in the middle of all the coiling.
At this exact moment, he felt stabbing pain at various places in his body, including several places where his meridians are at. Stopping his energy circulation.
He wanted to scream in pain, but held back and took deep breathes to calm himself down.
After looking at the current situation, he knew that he is in a pinch. The energy in his body is not exactly working as he wanted it to. He is cursing himself for falling into such a trap.
After calming down, he looked at the body of the stone python that is right in front of his mouth. He bit into the cloth that is covering his mouth and tore it slowly before spitting it out so that his mouth has access. He took a deep breath and opened his mouth wide and bit the python.
*HISSSSSSSSS*
The python gave out a hissing sound in pain.
Sam's teeth can no longer be treated as normal teeth, they are almost fangs due to his vampire part of the body. He can munch into any flesh easily.
When Sam bit into the flesh of the python, there is something in his body that felt excited as the blood seeped into his mouth. Without him even knowing, he started sucking the blood in slowly and subconsciously, he is relishing in the taste of the blood.
His eyes started turning blood red from black and every cell of his body is feeling the excitement of the blood being sucked in.
The python tried to struggle and wiggle, but soon it gave up on its own life as Sam just consumed every single drop of its blood and only the flesh was left.
Only after the blood is completely sucked did Sam come out of his trance-like state and he shook his head vigorously.
He felt like he lost his soul in the middle of the process and he couldn't believe that it is him who has such a lust for blood.
But he doesn't have that much time to think about it. He noticed that his energy is back to full again and he is burning with vigor.
Now that the python that is coiling his upper body is dead, Sam used his hands to take it off of him.
*HHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSS*
The remaining python is giving out angry hisses at the death of its companion and started coiling up even faster and tighter.
But by now, Sam's hands are already free. He adjusted the claws a bit and slammed the claws into the thick body of the stone python, the string trap of the claws activated and the sharp string tore through the layers of flesh on the python and held the beast in place.
*HIIISSSS* *HISSSS* The python continuously hissed in pain. The string traps are holding the most delicate flesh in place and with a single pull, it would be torn down and the python would take his last hiss before it died.
And Sam did just that. He pushed his hands wide open as if he is welcoming someone for a hug and the flesh was shaved off of the python's spine.
The stone spikes that are stopping his energy flow were gone again and Sam broke through the spine and stood standing.
But before he could properly stand up, he was already being attacked and this time, the leader himself took direct action.
Sam reacted fast enough and blocked the attack and left a deep claw cut on the arm of the opponent.
The paralytic poison started seeping in.
Sam is on the full offensive for the next three minutes, he was in his shadow mode as he took advantage of the darkness in the cave to move faster than everyone else in the cave and attacking each and every person.
The situation is extremely one-sided. If it was a normal open battlefield, Sam would have had some resistance as the teamwork is impeccable. But now that they are trapped in such a small space along with the fact that many team members already died, they are at an inherent disadvantage.
In the middle of it, Sam halted right next to the dead bodies of the two pythons and looked at the rest of the team that is already feeling the effects of the poison.
He extended his hand at the python and the death energy riled up. Soon, the python that has an intact body started moving again. But as an undead creature.
The team became terrified. There is a reason that they didn't mess with the pythons when they are coming out of the crack.
They are not their pets, they are equal team members just like any of them and they would only listen to the leader's commands.
But still, they are beasts and predators.
They are not to be messed with. If everything went well, Sam would have been their meal, but one of them became Sam's meal and now became Sam's companion.
Now, Sam started going after them one at a time and started injecting the blood essences.
The leader who is the last person to be picked looked at his team members and said to Sam with a gritted teeth.
"You don't belong in a normal world. You belong in hell."
"Really?"
"Yes. What kind of a twisted psycho are you to make them feel this much torment. End their life if you want to. But you don't have to torment them like that."
"You can only blame your own luck for that. Don't worry, you wouldn't die right away. I have something for you to do."
"Do you really think, I would do something for you?"
"I am giving you a chance to go back to your boss to talk to him. Maybe you can get your revenge if you are good enough at persuading people."
"Wh…" Before the leader could say anything, Sam knocked him out with an anesthesia shot and started performing surgery.
He placed a small metallic object right next to his heart and sealed him back up. The man woke up after three hours and he was there alone with the rest of the corpses lying around.
There is a note left for him.
"You better leave this place and reach to your boss within two days and take this with you and show it to your boss. Tell him, that the next team will suffer even more and no one would be able to send the new back to him at that point."
The leader saw that there is a recording crystal near that note. He took it and left the place. As he was walking, he noticed that there is a faint pain in his chest, but when he scanned his own body, there is nothing he could find.
He traveled to the city and used the wormholes that are connected to planet 1 and directly traveled to the estate of his boss.
All this while, he couldn't help but feel tormented by the image of Sam's actions in that cave.
He saw the struggle his team members went through to just die. Those blood essences created chaos within their bodies. With one organ after another failing and dying.
This is the most gruesome death he has seen and there is no blood spilled to kill that person or any other torturous action done to them.
All it took was two stabs and the blood came out because those stabs are also not that high.
Many times, he just wanted to scream and cry. But he couldn't stop in his tracks at all and soon reached the estate of his boss.
When the attendants saw him, they are surprised. They knew that this team was sent on a mission. For the leader to come back in the middle of a mission and that too in a sorry state, there is no way they could stay calm.
They informed their boss immediately and soon the team leader is in a private audience with Raunak's future father-in-law.
"What are you doing here? Are you not supposed to be in the middle of the task I gave you?"
The leader couldn't stand anymore and knelt on the floor as he took out the recording crystal with his two hands shaking and shivering.
The boss took the crystal with a confused look on his face and infused his spiritual energy into it.
Soon he saw the video playing in and he was shocked to see the rest of the events.
The battle was recorded from start to finish. But the most focus was on the torment the members went through.
Their bodies collapsing and their face writhing in soul-searing pain. Even the man who didn't care much about his subordinates and the man who is a member of faction 1 which only sees the people at the value they can provide, couldn't help but flinch at the torment.
The leader who saw it all over again couldn't take it and, fainted on the spot.
The boss stood up and called for the attendants.
"Take him to rest and call me when he woke up."
