Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam entered the bubble and looked at the pods.

There are pods of different sizes and all of them are egg shaped.

The largest are the ones that are eight feet tall and most of them are not giving any energy waves or reactions when Sam watched them with the energy vision. These pods also have don't have any patterns on it. In this category there are only few pods that are showing some signs of energy.

The smaller pods varied from one feet tall to the seven feet tall and all of these have patterns. The larger they became, the fainter the patterns became.

There are some pods of this category which are almost eight feet and the patterns are barely visible. There are very close to the pods that have no patterns at all.

Sam placed his hands on a pod and used the observation ability. He first did so on the empty pod. The pod seemed hollow. The pod itself has extremely complicated structure. The grains are too small. It clearly reminded him of the structures made by nano materials. They are small, compact and the bondage of each grain is complicated.

They will make good defensive tools.

As he continued with the observation ability he was surprised to see that the bottom of the pod is not exactly closed. There is a small bed that looked like insides of an oyster.

Sam moved to another large pod with no patterns but still has energy waves.

As soon as he placed his hand on the pod, Sam heard something within his head.

He was surprised and retracted his hand immediately and looked around. After confirming that no one is here, Sam once again placed his hand slowly and started listening to the voice once again.

[Pain, Pain, Pain…]

Those not exactly words it is as if the creature inside is sending all the feelings directly to his brain.

Sam proceeded with the observation ability. Now he can see what goes into the hollow structure and he could faintly guess what the function of this pod is.

There is a Sea Folk currently sitting inside the pod. The bed that looked like the insides of the oyster is glowing faintly and the pod is full of water completely submerging the sea folk.

The Sea folk is none other than the one Sam injured with the first attack. There is a large hole inside the torso that is slowly healing as flesh is slowly regrown bit by bit.

Sam was stunned a bit. He removed his hand and looked around to look at the other pods.

These pods seem like they are made for recovery of these people. But the smaller pods confused him even more.

He walked to the smaller one and placed his hand.

This time he was even more stunned. This is a bigger surprise for sure.

Inside the pod there is a sea folk, but not the sea folk he fought. The sea folk in the pod is relatively shorter, smaller and the insides are not filled with just water. The water is a bit viscous and the inner walls looked like the insides of a womb.

There is a faint membrane on the body of the sea folk and it is clearly not developed fully.

Sam removed his hand and went to observe another smaller pod. This is the smallest of all and his speculations were right.

In this small pod, there is a small baby sized sea folk. It is just like fetus turning into a baby with the face and hands not fully formed.

He couldn't help but marvel by this.

The first thought that came to Sam's mind is that they might be artificially created.

But if that is true, then the question comes on who created it which he couldn't find an answer. But the setup is really like that something that could have been created artificially.

Sam looked into the horizon of the deep seas and was surprised to see what would be there. He doesn't have much time, so he left the bubble and swam into another direction.

He didn't go deeper, but he wanted to see if he could find the same type of bubbles in the same sea level and his guess was right. He could find them, in fact they are not scarce or rare.

After finding out, he didn't engage with them, instead he started recording everything and went deeper into the sea.

By now, it is already dawn outside and the Sea folk are already getting back along with a large number of corpses.

The haul today is two times larger than normal. As they didn't do anything the previous night and they seemed to have taken revenge.

After entering the water they divided their loot which are the corpses of the people and they went to their own bubbles.

When the sea folk that belongs to the bubble that Sam just 'visited', they were shocked and immediately a team left the place to look for the commander, the transcendent stage Sea folk who is part of another bubble.

That bubble is not only bigger, it also has double the pods than the bubble Sam visited.

The sea folk gave the message and the commander was surprised. After some more communication he learned that not a single pod was harmed, so he sent a search party of the strongest of the bunch from each bubble to search till the night while he himself went into the deep sea to do something himself.

Sam doesn't know that hundreds of sea folk are searching for him within the range of the bubbles. If he knew he would be glad that he left earlier.

He travelled at full speed for more than an hour and he is now far from the range of bubbles. In fact, he met with many sea creatures and had to fight them and flee some of them because of the sheer numbers.

Soon he found his way to another area with the presence of the sea folk. And to his surprise there is not just bubble now.

There is one large bubble that is two to three times the first bubble Sam saw and there are six smaller bubbles surrounding it.

Sam could only see them all together from far away and due to the glow that is brighter because of their presence in the same place.

He was surprised to so many sea folk there.

There are just too many.

They are all training and guarding all the same with so many pods inside.

One of the Sea folk is training the rest of them. Helping them conjure the water into spears, throwing them and controlling their motion within the water, elemental fusion and so on.

They are currently training like normal soldiers. Sam is a bit conflicted, he couldn't move any more than this. There are no hiding place past this location and if he really goes anywhere close he would have to fight hundreds of them underwater alone.

Even though he might be able to escape, the price to be paid is just too much.

He decided to take a detour and go past this large bubble and swam to the side.

After he left, within an hour there is another Sea folk that arrived at this location. If Sam was here, he would have recognized him. He is the one who led the sea folk to attack the land.

But he didn't come alone, he brought a large haul of dead bodies along with him in a bubble.

He went to the large bubble in the center to meet with the person who is training the troops and gave the corpses.

Some of the soldiers that are training came and took the corpses and buried them under the pods.

The commander and the trainer communicated for some time and the former left, but this time, along with him, some more sea folk are moving. But they are not going normally. There went to the pods and placed their arm on it as they injected the energy inside and after some time, the pod shook slightly and slowly floated upwards.

Under the pod there are tentacles that are covered with blood and soil of the sea floor and it almost seemed like it has its own life.

Now both the sea folk and the pod swam and followed the commander and reached they travelled towards the bubble which is under the direct command on the commander.

There some of the sea folk placed their pods into the bubble and it planted itself into the sea floor, before sending the rest of to the different smaller bubbles in the shallow waters and one of them being the one Sam visited and reduced some numbers earlier.

And within a day of their loss, the army of sea folk is back to normal again.

Sam doesn't know anything about this, but he was found by something else.

Currently, he is floating in front of a large number of corpses of elves, humans, and centaurs that are collectively floating within a bubble and the sea folk that is floating in front of that bubble.
