Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

*BOOM*

The explosion at the city gate not only shook the people that are retreating but also the people inside the city. They didn't expect that after preparing so well, someone would still manage to blast open their entrance.

The losses are incredible.

But the main purpose of this explosion is to show Sam's firepower and resourcefulness.

The formation he gave Kiran is that of a controlled explosion formation and they used the fire elemental energy cells.

It is not as lethal and destructive as the controlled formation he used against the first branch leader, rather it is a very limited and most basic controlled explosion he created.

Sam knew that the third branch leader might not trust the first young master and his subordinates when they arrived here. Even if he did, it is almost impossible to entrust something to the first young master as he 'failed' to judge the second young master who turned out to be a 'traitor' and entrusted him with the crucial formation that led to the defeat and destruction of the second branch.

So, Sam didn't plan to let them go and steal the furnace body by themselves anyway. He only gave those toys away to create enough commotion inside the city and to make the people terrified.

After all, he has been dealing with the puppet organization for almost two months, he is wasting too much time here while the remaining players are dealing with other organizations.

He cannot be held back here. After all, when five players are dealing with one organization, the fall would come faster than normal and there would be a clash. They might even be as fast as Sam in dealing with the organization.

Before the clash between the players started Sam needs to be there.

So, he has to deal with the third branch as fast as possible and the controlled explosion formations are there to destroy it from inside.

But since the other party already showed their power by finding Sam's location and attacking him, almost making him suffer severe losses, Sam also wanted to show his hand a bit making them panic.

So, he made this controlled explosion happen at the city wall right when the retreating troops entered.

The losses are high, but the lowest level troops are the ones that got destroyed.

When the dust settled in the place of the explosion, a large crater filled with charred ground and covered with magma was what they saw in front.

The branch leader has cold sweats and suddenly he remembered the words sent by the second branch leader through the first young master.

If they are not confident enough to deal with Sam, it is better to give up the body of the furnace.

The branch leader then looked at the Golem sect members who were beaten black and blue and then at the black ghost members.  A part of him is telling him to take the advice of the second branch leader. But a part of him is telling him that he might have gone too far to go back now.

He shook those thoughts off his head and went into the city with the rest of the members. But even when they are going to their home, they didn't even feel the faintest sense of security inside. After all, their door was broken, what would the other party do next and what cannot he do next?"

While they reached the city and went to recover.

After an hour, the golem sect members, the branch leader, and the elders all gathered in a secret room.

Apart from them, there are a dozen members sitting on the floor forming a circle and a formation was placed in the large circle. Various images are shuffling in the formation and after ten minutes, it stopped.

It showed the image of Sam sitting on the harbinger over the lake as he looked around leisurely.

Nobody spoke and just looked at the image.

Sam looked around for a while and then waved his hand. A bird puppet the size of a normal eagle appeared in his hand. He placed it on his lap and started tinkering with it a bit. After that, he took out a crystal tablet and the bird puppet's eyes started glowing with fiery red as it hovered over the sky.

As the bird puppet moved, the image moved closer and closer in the formation back in the puppet organization and they couldn't help but frown. Particularly the golem sect members and all of a sudden, a large red flame enveloped the screen and the image suddenly disappeared.

The golem sect members were shocked and at the same time, one of the people sitting around the formation jerked a bit.

Meanwhile, back at the lake, Sam who is controlling the bird with the crystal tablet smiled. Nearby, the tree is burning and on the tree, there is a small sparrow that is burning along with it.

This sparrow is one of the reasons that Sam's location was found out.

It is actually close to what Sam uses for his own surveillance, but his surveillance is a lot simpler, efficient, and reliable than the one the golem sect uses.

The surveillance technique that golem uses, needs flesh golems. Which are essentially dead bodies refined into golems. After that, two souls will be bonded together to form a soul pair and dozens of these soul pairs will be hammered into the golem and finally, a single strong soul will be hammered into it to control it properly.

After the flesh golem is created, they would take small flesh golems which are dead bodies of various small animals and one soul from a pair will leave a fragment into the golem. The golem would then act as a surveillance device. The information seen would be passed through the soul fragment to the original image using their soul connection and the second soul in their pair would help with projecting the image in the formation to which the flesh golem is attached.

The surveillance is extremely high-end and uses a lot of effort. But it is hard to find them as these golems don't have any energy signature other than the basic signature of the animal, so the golem sect uses it.

Sam got all this information from the dead body of the golem sect member. Even though the process was not detailed, at least he understood the theory and he couldn't help but laugh at this.

The process is difficult and extremely evil and in his opinion extremely stupid.

It is not like there is no such thing as surveillance in this world. In fact, there are formations that could project the happenings of a whole forest even in a place like the Starwood city which is a very remote place and weakest place.

But the problem is that the surveillance area is fixed and it can be easily countered. Throughout the journey, Sam saw much advanced surveillance techniques, but none of them are useful for wartime purposes and they are barely useful for entertainment purposes and as the means to judge trials and tests.

Sam didn't believe that no one is intelligent enough to think of joining the communication devices and the recording crystals making them into a proper surveillance device. He just thought that only a few high-level organizations had that, but even the golem sect is using such a crude method, which disappointed him a bit.

And now that he found out about them, there is no need to leave these little things here.

Sam operated the bird through the crystal tablet like he is playing a game and started burning the flesh golems along with the trees.

He even occasionally closed his eyes as he used the crystal table to locate their presence easily and sent the bird puppet to burn them down.

Meanwhile, back in the secret room of the branch, the screen shifted continuously but every image soon turned into an image of burning fire and then a blank screen, and every time that happened the flesh puppets started jerking a little bit.

After an hour, the first flesh golems fell on the ground completely disconnected from the formations.

"Fast, fast. Escape you damn corpses."

The golem sect members cursed the flesh golems continuously ordering them to make the flesh golems in the forest to escape. They cannot lose the flesh golems that easily.

They are extremely expensive and something way beyond their paygrade and influence. In fact, bringing them here was because of a whim from these youngsters and they felt nothing would happen to them as no one here is aware of this kind of technology.

But Sam not only found out, but he also destroyed them one by one and he only used a single puppet to do it.

This loss is something beyond their reach.

As for going out and stopping Sam directly, they didn't dare to do so.

They barely escaped, even though Sam was the one that was ambushed by them, they still need to recover before they made any move.. They wanted to assess Sam meanwhile, but Sam is destroying their eyes directly.
