Novel Full Chapter 1150 - Attack
For the next week, the second young master was under the strict supervision of Arkiv and the rest of the subordinates under the first young master.
Since the supervision was given to the first young master, as his trusted subordinate, Arkiv was given easy access to this post. He took a look at Kiran who is still in his disguise and smiled.
The second young master was wrapped around their finger for the past week as the defensive project is going in full swing.
One part of the city wall was destroyed and a bunch of puppets under Sam's control managed to infiltrate and destroy the infrastructure. In the process, destroying a formation and killing over two dozen people and some of them are elites who are in charge of patrol and immediately action at the city walls.
This made the puppet organization speed up the project and this one week, the research team worked day and night.
The team worked on amplification formation and the puppets, while the First young master solely worked on the diffusion formation.
At this moment, the puppets are being deployed to their locations while the formation is being put in place.
The second young master is making rounds to all the puppets to check the mobility of the puppets for one final time.
The check went until afternoon and the second young master was sent to his residence along with his close subordinates. Coincidentally, Arkiv was called off for something important by the first young master, which gave him a moment of secrecy.
He had a few moments of secrecy like this in the past week and in these few moments, he prepared for something big.
He instantly activated a bunch of formations as he and Kiran went into the room. They took out a bunch of blueprints and the second young master marked different points on the blueprints with a checkmark.
After he was done, he looked at Kiran and said.
"These are the things I already modified. I placed all the bugs where they needed to be and they would work properly on time. Now, I need to find a time to place the things that would deactivate the bugs they needed at this point."
He continued as he pointed to a certain point on the map of the city.
"I need you to find out when it was the perfect time to do so between now and dawn tomorrow. I heard that was the time they would be activating the diffusion formation."
"Yes, boss. Don't worry. I will find out and give an appropriate time in an hour."
Kiran then left and the concealing formations were deactivated.
After leaving the room, Arkiv came back with the rest of the security and Kiran started a conversation with Arkiv.
"So, how is it going?" Kiran asked.
"The planning is perfect, the large-scale formation would be activated by afternoon. The combat ability and mobility of the puppets were already tested, so the city will be protected by dawn tomorrow."
"That is great."
The conversation went on for a few minutes and Kiran went out to take a stroll around the area.
After an hour, he came back and gave a time for the second young master.
"One hour before midnight."
That was the timing given to him and the second young master waited for the time to come.
When the time arrived, he sneaked out with Kiran's help and went to the designated location where a metal pillar was placed.
He ran towards it and looked around to make sure no one is seeing him, he took out an inscription brush and made some markings on the pillar before leaving.
After he left, a few minutes passed and the first young master finally arrived at the scene. He made some more modifications on the pillar and left.
Time passed slowly and dawn arrived.
The elders and the first young master and the elders are having a meeting as they went through the final review to start the puppet formation.
As the meeting continued, all of a sudden, an attendant ran in and said.
"Branch leader, Come out and take a look. We are being attacked."
The branch leader frowned. The attacks in the recent days were known and they are not severe enough for the Branch leader to react by himself, but for the attendant to be in this hurry to even forget the etiquette, he had a bad feeling and went out directly.
As soon as he did so, he was completely stunned by what he saw.
The sky above the city is being covered with a dozen puppets. All of them are modeled after different birds and all of them seemed to have metal elemental energy circulating throughout their bodies.
The puppets are not hiding their presence at all.
The birds are huge and from their construction structure, the Branch leader even recognized a few of the birds on which the designs are based.
As the bird puppets hovered over the sky, every bird puppet belonging to the puppet organization that went upwards was not being able to reach them as the metal elemental energy became too rampant and combined with the wind element, they are creating fierce metal winds. And the one force that the puppet makers couldn't see but feel is the magnetic force.
Sam used some of the meridian network models of Dia and implemented them as secondary networks in the bird puppets that are based on the metal elemental bird-type beasts.
This helped him create a magnetic field that would have a great effect on metallic things and the puppet organization has too many puppets with them for their own good.
All this while, the bird puppets at least managed to reach the targets, but this time, they were being torn apart from the magnetic field and the metallic winds and made them crash into different places of city damaging the infrastructure.
As they roamed around the sky, the bird puppets suddenly opened their mouths wide and started shooting energy beams. All of them are metallic energy beams and they landed on the base formation.
The formation started to waver a bit as every spot hit by the metallic energy beams looked like it was under the attack of a large-scale metallic sand tornado concentrated to the size of a basketball in a single spot.
The branch leader looked at this in shock. He didn't expect something like energy beams. After all, Sam didn't bother to use them in the past two weeks he has been dealing with them.
The first young master looked at this and said in a hurry.
"We need to activate the formation immediately. These energy beams also have the same principle of energy explosions. We need to proceed quickly. I will go to the pillar."
As soon as he spoke, he started running and the second young master who is beside him said.
"I will also come."
The first young master just nodded and ran forward and the second young master followed. After they got out of the building they took off on their bird puppets as they hurriedly made their way towards the metal pillar.
At this moment, the second young master is feeling anxious. He didn't expect that Sam would come with such an attack. Particularly at this time.
This is the worst time an attack like this could have happened.
And there is a reason for him to think like this.
From the past week, he and Kiran are plotting to make some mess of the formation. But not a big one, it would only be a slight failure which would be the work of him changing some minor things in the formation and it would only make the formation output a little lesser.
As for how he is sure that only the output will be affected, it is because he and Kiran overheard when the first young master is discussing with himself and they managed to get some calculations of the formations which made it easier to do what he did.
He wanted to let the efficiency drop during the final activation and wanted to be the hero to save it as soon as it happened.
But he didn't expect that an attack would be happening at this exact moment.
If the formation didn't work according to his calculations, not only would the city face severe consequences, they might even be destroyed completely because of the firepower.
Many disciples and elders would be killed instantly.
So, he couldn't help but run after the first young master so that he could change back the inscription modification he made on the pillar.
But as soon as they reached the pillar he was shocked. The inscription change is beyond what he did last night and he could easily recognize it.
"Wai.."
Before he could yell out loud, the first young master already activated the pillar due to his momentary lapse.
As soon as the pillar was activated the puppets placed on different corners of the city activated and bright light pillars started appearing from their bodies and the light pillars slowly dissolved into curtains as they moved towards different directions.
