Chapter 859: Bi fangs
Sam's target is the Bifang tribe.
From the description it is not the true Bi fang tribe, but a descendant of it. Just like Great Rocs which are the descendants of the sky soverign rocs.
He also saw the Wyverns and Flood dragons in the Beast faction.
He doesn't know why there are so many high level beasts in this desolate planet.
It is completely inexplicable.
But he could use this to collect some beasts not just for research, but also as an addition to his troops.
He is going to expand rapidly for the next decade or so and he would be reaching far and wide without any limitations. For that, he has to have a proper army with him and a proper army doesn't necessarily have to be humans.
Now, the first target will be Bi fangs and to reach them, Sam doesn't have to worry too much since Sky already knew of their location.
Sky escaped from this very central continent and the memories of that nightmare are still fresh in his mind.
They didn't have to travel for long too. They only had to travel three days before they reached the spot.
The Bifangs are inhabiting an active volcano within the central continent. They are fire type beasts after all. But the fire element they activate is not normal. They don't just spew fire and create flames like Yanwu. Bi fangs fire will be more on magma side. The flame is like a thick jelly and it is also called flame poison.
It acts like a hot acid that could melt metal and when it touches any flammable objects like wood, cloths and feathers, it does make fire. But when it contacts the flesh, it seeps in with a burning sensation and makes the whole body infected by that flaming poison slowly making the person's blood boil and bones molten.
This is the extreme torturous method to kill someone.
But that is not the only special thing about these cranes though. They are extremely cunning and greedy. They want more land and more food and want to occupy everything. Which is also the reason they attacked the Rocs when they had the chance.
Sam is sure that they must have enjoyed the high grade meat and the new habitat that came along with it.
But this greed and cunning also makes it hard for the Bi fangs to survive. After all the rest of the beasts wouldn't just stay still and let them do their thing, that is why their population wouldn't grow too much.
Sam factored in all so that he could estimate their strength.
From what he learned from Sky, Bi fangs attacked them when they are still allies and are in war with some other beast tribe. After that war, both sides suffered severe losses and the Bi fangs wanted took advantage and betrayed them.
As proud as rocs are they wouldn't have expected this.
Sam couldn't help but shake his head as he thought of this. At least back on earth, only humans are capable of betrayal, beasts are loyal and wouldn't be able to think too much. But here, that also changed.
After reaching the spot. Sam and Arkiv stayed within the outskirts so that they could scout the area properly and also plan to make the attack.
From their estimation there is a possibility that there are one or two consummate stage beasts. It is hard to grow to consummate level in the outskirts of the central continent, so that should be their limit.
Sam has planned something special for them.
The volcanic mountain that is in this area is active, but not active enough to go off anytime soon and create lava-streams.
So the effect of heat is not completely unbearable and there is even a normal water stream nearby.
He decided to use the stream and some things he got from the Northern tribesman of the Western continent.
It is called the frost essence. After the western continent is developed, the northern tribe didn't want to be left out. While Sam is out there exploring the world, some higher level executives of organization managed to create a healthy business relations with them which led to this complimentary gift.
It is actually core of an extreme glacier which greatly increases the cultivation of the ice element users even if they are in transcendent level.
Sam created some formations in this area and used the frost essence to reduce the temperature of the water stream and the created a temporary cold environment.
This wouldn't last long in the face of the volcano, but it is strong enough make the Bi Fangs to make them uncomfortable.
Then they used this chance to catch Bi Fangs one after another and forcefully subdued them.
Sam just threw them one by one in to the divine dimension. Sky doesn't want the whole tribe massacred. He just wants the head of the tribe to be destroyed.
Now that the small fries are almost done, Sam cancelled the formation he laid down to change the atmosphere back. All Bi fangs from Nascent stage and below are done.
The Pre-transcendent stage and above wouldn't be bothered with this minor atmospheric changes. This cold wouldn't bother him, they will stay in their habitat for the most of the time.
But they can lure them with something else.
Sam laid down another formation. It is actually a blood essence of a transcendent stage fire elemental beast and he has a lot of it.
He got this from Agun's spatial ring on the night of the banquet.
He placed the fire elemental essence in the middle of the forest patch he created. This is extremely valuable for those beasts and they could sense it from a mile away.
And Sam even sacrificed some of the essence to throw it in the forest to lure them out.
When the Bi fangs were out, Sam just made the essence disappeared after spilling some here and there making the birds search like crazy.
He gave it to Yanwu to consume. Even though it would have been more beneficial when he is a pretranscendent, it is still useful.
Now that the birds are out, Sam started catching on by one.
Finally, the transcendent stage birds and Consummate level birds have taken notice of the anomaly.
They normally wouldn't care if the birds of lower level went missing for a few days, but this time, they went missing on a large scale.
So, the situation turned serious.
Sam is waiting for them to come out. He set some special traps just for the Transcendent stage birds.
It is time for the Specter to shine once again and he is using the chessboard this time. A team of Bi fangs at transcendent stage didn't sound that bad.
After that was done, it was finally the Consummate level birds.
The two birds came out at the same time. There are barely any Bi fangs left in the territory. Except for the ones that went to hunt and the ones that didn't come out of the mountain, every other bird is already caught.
Now there are barely a dozen left.
The Consummate level birds prohibited the rest of the birds from coming out and took searching for themselves and Sam started his shameless method of dealing with it. But for that, he has to leave Arkiv in a hidden place which the Bi fangs wouldn't reach.
First step is to wait for the two birds to separate so that they would have a decent distance. After that, he appeared in front of one of the birds on his harbinger.
The Bi fang was completely arrogant towards Sam and didn't even bother spewing the flame poison, it just wanted to swallow him whole in an instant.
Sam didn't resist. Instead, he disappeared into the divine dimension and let it swallow him.
After he entered the belly, he just let one tenth of the frost essence he had in his hand and threw it into the stomach.
The frost essence is weaker than Bi fang for sure, but that is just when they are used against each other openly. Once it was thrown directly into the stomach, the situation will be different.
Particularly in the stomach. The digestion process couldn't be stopped at will and the frost essence is not a good thing to be digested.
The bi fang flapped its wings like crazy and felt cold all over before crashing into the ground.
Sam started throwing all kinds of stuff inside. Poison, grenades everything that could harm it and soon, he crawled out of its large mouth after it died.
The other bi fang seemed to have sensed the death of its companion. It started going berserk. But the berserk nature is the best time to take advantage of it after all.
Sam used the same trick.
He used the harbinger to dodge the attacks at his full speed and if he couldn't, he just entered the divine dimension and fell down and started all over again. Finally, he managed to enter the mouth once again and damaged the beast by too much. But this time he didn't finish it.
He just made sure that Bi fang wouldn't be able to fight anymore.
He let Sky do the rest of the job after the bird crashed.
He let out Sky far away along with Arkiv who is observing the situation with the telescope Sam gave him.
After the second bird crashed, it was finally time for him and Sky to arrive and kill the beast.
Sky took revenge and Yanwu got a lot of fire elemental meat that could boost his strength.
Now they went on with the rest of the journey.
