Chapter 1263 - Dwarves
Sam and Aiwa moved into the church estate.
For the next three days, Aiwa was in the city. She walked around, bought everything she wanted. Most of her life was spent in the winter state. She was unable to see the outside of that frozen land much in her life.
Now that she got the chance, she is enjoying it very much.
In these three days, Sam created a design of the tower that works on the light element. He made the inscription masters make the formation plate required for the demonstration.
The demonstration was complete along with the construction plan. The holographic presentation was perfect. But the inscription didn't even realize what they had done until they finished it. When they thought of replicating and creating the technology by themselves, they were left with a lot of confusion because nothing they did added up to the final product.
Sam didn't care what they tried, he had his ways to make them work to create technology, but them not being able to replicate it.
He presented it to the Pope of the Holy Church.
This is the Holy tower of Healing.
This works on a large supply of light elemental energy and it is suitable for healing mortal plane cultivators. Each floor of the tower runs on healing formations that are suitable for different cultivation levels.
He didn't create anything for the Astral Plane cultivators, that would be too much of a price to pay for a partnership with one such organization.
After giving out the detailed plan and the formation masters and artisans confirmed that this would work, the Pope gave out the potions as well as the soul contract as Sam asked.
Along with that, Sam also got a recommendation letter written down for Aiwa so that she could go to the Organization that would be good for her ice elemental energy development.
The recommendation was from the pope himself, so there is no way the organization that has business deals with the Holy Church would reject it.
After that, he bought a beast pouch suitable for the Cougar and moved to the next realm along with Aiwa.
They stayed there for two days as they explored the surroundings of the organization as well as scouting the hierarchy and etiquette.
Sam particularly focused on the bad apples of the organization. If they are within the limits of his tolerance, then the rest of the organization wouldn't be that bad.
And he was really satisfied with it.
So, Sam went to the organization with Aiwa.
"Are you sure you don't want me to accompany you? You are a cripple, after all, you may need my help."
Aiwa asked and Sam could only smile about that. He doesn't need much help from Aiwa and any other help he might need is way beyond any means Aiwa could have on her hand.
After thinking for a while, Sam replied.
"I am currently in a bit of a pickle and I cannot explain it to you. The next time we meet, I wouldn't look like this. I wouldn't have a mask and I wouldn't also have the peg leg. I would no longer be a cripple and I will show you my true face."
"I already saw your face on the plains."
"I already told you that is not my true face. That is the face I have to live with for now. Anyway, you will recognize me, even when I come back with my original face, then you can come with me back to my hometown.
Until then, try to improve. With your current strength, my chef's last apprentice can take you down."
With that, Sam left her in that organization, and with the recommendation letter and his strength, the head of the organization himself directly met with him and processed the recruitment.
After he was done there, Sam went into the snowy mountains alone as he meditated once again. He decided to proceed further after he healed himself.
He got all the things he needed.
He stayed in the caves for two days to completely heal the meridians one after another.
After the healing is done, he focused on the soul once again. The more he attacked the soul, the more it is trying to resist him. He noticed that the backlash from the first and second times are vastly different.
The second time, made him feel acute headaches for quite a while.
So, he needs to be much more careful.
Sam wrestled with the soul and after much effort, he managed to get the third piece without harming himself.
But digesting it didn't give him much information. They are tactics Sivan used to deal with some of his opponents when their clan is going against other organizations for some resource points and territory.
He left the realm after that and went to the next realm. He got some information from the Holy Church on where he could find the best artisans nearby and he got a decently positive address.
This is an organization of dwarves. They are the best when it comes to crafting with metal, so he doesn't have to worry they would screw it up if he gave the perfect plans.
But before he could go there, he needs to collect some metals that would be perfect for the product he needs.
So, he went on the search for them while he started designing the products he need so that he could present it to the dwarves.
He also needs to make something to repay the dwarves.
For the next week, he was on the conquest and collected some materials. After that, he sat down once again and decided to take some more information from the soul.
This time, he got some more internal information about Sivan's clan. The internal deals between the clan elders, disciples, and the subordinate organizations could be used as dirt when he needs.
Sam didn't even know what to do with that information in his current situation. But he is sure that this would come in handy when he goes back to get his body as well as take revenge.
He doesn't know how far the players will progress with the organizations, but Sam knew that they wouldn't be able to deal with the last three without his presence. Even if they were able to deal with it, they would at least wait until they reach the Peak of transcendence and even the Astral Plane Consummate stage, and even before that, they even have to deal with the remaining two organizations before that with the heads being at Late stage of Astral Plane Consummation.
It would take a few years at least and that would be enough time for Sam to get back into his own body.
After this piece of currently useless information, he just went on with the search for materials. He spent the next three weeks for the materials and tried to rip the soul apart one by one, but all the information is mostly about Sivan's personal life.
His trashy childhood and the oppression. The memories of the starting stages of him being crippled.
His revenge on some people caused him this condition. With his psychopathic behavior towards his enemies, Sam is really sick of this guy.
He got it tough, but Sam knew many people who got it as tough as him if not tougher. But none of them turned out to be as psychopathic as this guy.
This guy has no bottom line, he would torture an infant to get a confession from a mother if he needs to and he actually set precedence for that.
Sam understood that he is in an even worse situation than he actually thought. Getting his body is not just a matter of strength and power, he would have to play with this guy's unpredictable mentality.
But that is too far away.
After gathering all the material he needed for the next project and completing the design, Sam finally made a move to the Dwarven tribe.
This is one of the closed organizations and Sam is tempted to see if the other party is the same organization that was connected to the Banished Realm, but once he reached there, he instantly realized that he is not.
These dwarves are more or less similar to that to the previous dwarves he meant, but it could be said these guys are variants. In this sense, all these dwarves only have metal and fire elements which is a great combination for a species that is known as great artisans throughout the ages.
The first thing Sam did after arriving at the realm is go to the best weapon shop in town. He looked at the weapons to judge the quality of crafting. Looking at Sam checking the weapons, the shopkeeper is really intrigued.
Sam is looking at all the right places and whenever he spotted a good one, he has his expression showing it, so he approached Sam and excitedly showed the collection.
"Do you take custom orders?" Sam asked after he was done window shopping.
"Of course."
"Then, I have a few designs that should be produced.. They need to be precise to the point. Do you mind arranging a meeting with the weaponsmith?"
