Chapter 2418: Helping out
Chetan got excited immediately.
He has seen what Sam has done first hand in the Academy tournament. The solo combat... the whole thing became a huge mess because of Sam alone. He always had a trick up his sleeve no matter how much stronger the opponent is.
"So, you really came. I was thinking that you might not come at all."
"I do have a bone to pick with the Poseidon academy. They sent fifty Telchines to deal with me in the previous planet I was in."
Everyone is stunned. Fifty Telchines is not a small force. It is not easy to deal with them. Even if their group of ten went ahead and attacked, it will take some effort to bring those Telchines down. Assuming they are all at the peak stage, they are wondering how Sam even made it out alive.
"What happened?" Chetan asked.
"What else? I killed them and took over the planet and came here for some payback. Anyway, just give me a brief of the situation. I want to finish this as fast as I can."
There is a deafening silence in the room as Sam walked to the board looking at all the details mentioned there. He is particularly intrigued by the central diagram.
"This is interesting. Poseidon academy has smarter people than I thought. I thought I killed most of the good ones in the tournament. But they still managed to keep some good people. *TSK* I should have been thorough."
Only then did the rest of the people came back to their senses.
"You took over that planet? This fast?" Chetan asked.
"It is a small place. There isn't much challenge. Anyway, let's focus on this, alright? What is happening here exactly?"
Chetan came back to his senses and started explaining.
The gist of it is that the Poseidon forces took over one of the places in the planet. It is a city completely occupied by the strongest force. And by complete, there is not a single normal citizen. Every single one of them is a member of that force.
They have dozens of Peak stage second graders.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
From that place as the centre, the Poseidon academy's team started expanding slowly. First they took over the lower level forces and stationed the Cyrpus family mercenaries there.
Their expansion is also happening in a circular fashion. Basically, their forces or rather the small bases set up, when connected together will form a circle.
Inside this circle, there are obviously several settlements, like villages, sects and organizations. They are all occupied by the mercenaries and Poseidon forces.
Along with this systematic expansion, they created a perfect defense that is working for them. First of all, the forces in the outer circle created barriers. They blocked every known path into the circles. Of course, it is not possible to block it completely, but they put a system in place. And Sam is very familiar with the system.
Basically what they did is, to place markers along the circle. These are metal pillars with spatial nodes and some defensive mechanisms like poisons and hidden weapons involved. A small team was placed near these markers.
Apart from that, there are a bunch of sensory formations and puppets surrounding this area. Whenever an external person enters this area, the puppets will catch them. The marker will trigger and give notice to the team. The team will evaluate and send a message through the marker, the reinforcements will be deployed.
These reinforcements might come from the nearest area or from a farther area. Either way, the reinforcements are always on time.
For some reason, the other Olympian academies are not making any move. Even weirder is that no other academies from other regions have come. Only the Olympian academies are working this planet.
Gambler academy tried to break through this. But they are unable to do so. To do anything, they need to deal with the marker and identify how the spatial transference is happening. They tried to do some spatial interference methods, but they didn't work.
The reinforcements still came.
They tried to destroy the markers from long range, but they are stunned by its capabilities. Not only did it not get damaged, but the alert was sent even faster. It has its won defense mechanism and several puppets willingly came in the way to deflect the attack.
Even if that didn't work, some people just came in and interfered at the last minute.
The gambler academy team even tried to use the high altitude to bypass through the whole defense system. They entered one of the smaller settlements in the middle. But they realized that the smaller settlements have similar mechanism but with even more reinforcements coming from all four sides.
Even without the reinforcements, just the mercenaries placed there are enough to give them a tough time.
They did manage to defeat one small settlement, but they were injured and exhausted. And they are sure that they won't be able to occupy it and hold the defense. So, they turned their tail and ran back.
From then, they are having this meeting awaiting some help from the gambler academy.
Maybe if there are more gamble academy students they might have been able to do something. But at the moment, the difference in numbers and strategy is way too high.
Sam couldn't help but grin wildly upon seeing this. He barely managed to suppress the urge to just laugh out loud.
The whole thing seemed so ridiculous to him.
Because almost everything they are using is made with the help of the hub. The spatial transference mechanism, the pillars with the alert and defense mechanisms, even the strategy binding them all together and the puppets...
All of them are made through the hub.
Sam himself has tweaked with a few of these designs when they are submitted through the hub. He can even guess who is on the other side just from the looking at this.
"You guys should have brought our core formation team in second grade. They would have had a better chance at this, than you guys."
Sam said while smiling.
"I thought so too. But the core team is stuck solving another situation. We cannot have them
for now."
"Okay, I will help you guys out. I will break them down bit by bit. But you have to do the other parts yourself.
Did you guys locate the green portal?"
"Yeah, we have one in our control. We have support from one of the organizations too."
"Perfect. Let's get started then. Our first goal is to break open that circle. We will target just
one point and destroy it...
Sam proceeded to explain the plan.
After the plan was explained, the whole team immediately moved. They took off and reached their initial destination. The city of Nalvahan. This is one of the nexus cities. Five streams that flow across that continent connect near this city and they proceed to merge with the ocean. This city also has one of the metal mines under its control, making it extremely desirable. One of the reasons why this city has excessively reinforced security.
There are multiple alert mechanisms in this place all of them are even of higher quality.
The troops are also high in number. They are led by a mercenary hired by the Cyrpus family. A half-human and half-cyclops. He is built like a giant but his body structure is that of a human. He held a large battle hammer tied up to his back.
At the moment, he is taking reports from the troops that just came back from scouting. "Sir, as usual, there is no disturbance from the surroundings. The opposing team seemed to have retreated far as we expected. They are completely out of our zone of control. Our other forces are saying that we already reclaimed the area that we just lost.
Everything is perfect."
"Keep it up. There should not any hiccups. There is some news from the central base. We might go with the next wave of expansion. Our city will be leading it this time."
"Really?"
"Yes, we need to cross the sea for this. The expansion radius is going to increase because of
that. We are conquering the island sect."
"That is good to know boss. That means our rewards will increase. Because of our tight operations, the enemies didn't even dare to attack us. We didn't gain any loot or bonus. This will serve as a great boost of morale for our men."
At that moment, all of a sudden, a token hung on his hip started blinking with the red color
along with a loud beeping sound.
"What the fuck?"
He hurriedly issued orders.
"Prepare. It seems like some idiots have come to pick a fight with us. They are coming
through aerial route as well. Didn't our employers give us those weird turrets that will help with area defense? Activate them. We will deal with these guys."
What do you think?
