Chapter 1690: Relentless Traps

Dayus wanted to retort.

But he knew better than to argue with the truth.

He just cared about the fact that this guy is attacking Sam. That is enough for him at the moment. As for the rest of the petty revenge, he can take it after he was done with Sam.

So, he moved along with the Clan6 member.

Both of them made their way to the spot Sam was hiding in and they kept on attacking on their way. Sam hid behind the rocks and didn't change his position. The most he to try and endure the after effects of the attacks that landed near him.

He didn't want to take even a single attack head on. So, when Dayus and the clan member neared him, he already took his chance and disappeared from the spot.

Instead of black smoke or some spatial energy fluctuations, he disappeared with a lot of dirt and dust in the place.

Dayus and the clan member reached the spot. Both of them landed a kick on the huge rock, which exploded into debris.

Sam is nowhere to be seen. Of course, they didn't just trust their eyes. They spread their spiritual energy instantly to check out the surroundings.

Dayus focused on all the hiding spots, including the ground. But he was unable to find Sam. Still, he didn't believe that Sam left without any trace. So, he started attacking the surroundings with lightning.

"Stop it. At least fight properly. What is the point of wasting your energy like this?"

The clan member spoke as he looked in the surroundings carefully.

"Just shut the fuck up and do as you are told. Attack the ground. He is bound to be in there."

As he finished words, they suddenly felt some tremors and before they knew it, the whole area turned into a quicksand.

"I told you, you fucking idiot. He always has something up his sleeves."

Both of them were about to jump up and escape, but a bunch of vines popped out of nowhere and caught a hold of them. The vines dragged them deeper into the quicksand.

Dayus and the Clan member, tried to get rid of the vines. Only they couldn't easily do it as the vines has some kind of sticky substance making them extremely annoyed. The next move made them more than annoyed though.

Small openings appeared within the quicksand surface as poisonous gas escaped from it. The purple gas made both of them feel the sting on their skin.

"When did he have the time to concoct such a gas? It appears freshly secreted." To Dayus surprise, the clan member spoke curiously about the poison.

That guy doesn't seem to be worried about the gas, rather he was genuinely curious about where the poison came from. As for how he knew it was secreted freshly, nobody could care less at that moment.

"Why do you think, I told you to be careful? We need to catch him soon. Or we would be facing an endless string of traps as the time progresses"

Dayus used his lightning energy as he tried to escape from the quicksand. After a lot of struggle, his legs finally came out. The clan member also freed himself. But in this short time frame, they consumed a lot of poisonous gas.

They didn't die of course. But they did feel the stinging feeling all over their skin as well as their respiratory system.

Sam who escaped the spot a long time ago, left them another confusion.

He let his shadow undead out and made them dig tunnels away from the quicksand while he escaped in one of the tunnels himself. He is also using shadow elemental fusion while he is doing that. He also radiated a hint of death energy, just to imitate the aura of the shadow undead.

Both Dayus and the clan members were once again confused.

Dayus could only take out his spears once again. He started throwing them at one target after another.

It took almost ten shots before he managed to estimate Sam's direction.

By that time, Sam left them in the dust.

He came out of the ground as soon as Dayus identified his location.

He deactivated the completely shadow fusion and replaced with partial shadow and partial spatial fusion. The reaper sword keened as he started randomly swinging it. The sword blades flew around as he cut the spatial fabric just enough to leave it at a delicate spot.

Some of the cuts intertwined, but they didn't break completely. After dancing with his sword for a while, until Dayus and the Clan member are within his sight, he finally made his move once again. He aimed his hand at both of them as spatial energy gathered around it.

The energy turned into an orb, which he shot directly at them.

The clan member took the lead and intercepted the orb with his sword ray.

*BOOM*

An explosion occurred which didn't faze both of them. They just moved forward. But they halted in their tracks, when they felt the odd energy fluctuations. Then only they noticed the delicate cuts in the spatial fabric.

They rippled crazily before tearing open. The shadow energy crept out of the cracks as they spread rapidly in every direction.

Dayus and the clan member weren't quick enough to dodge it. So, they had to take some turbulence head on, before they got out of that dangerous area.

They started panting as they looked at Sam who suddenly flew into the air as he moved in a densely packed patch of woods.

"What the hell is up with this guy? Is he not tired at all? How is he able to use all kinds of traps in such a small time span?"

"I told you. He is a rat bastard. That is all he is good at."

"Sounds like sour grapes to me. That right there, is a fucking skill. I am jealous of that and you should be too."

As they bickered and followed Sam, an hour passed as they met with a bunch of different traps, that made them feel exhausted. Sam acted relentlessly as he used the surroundings to the best of his abilities. None of his attacks are fatal.

Most of them are designed to annoy the other party and make them consume as much time as possible. He is simply dragging the time out so that he could win the game.

Dayus also noticed this since the start. But he believed that he would be able to overpower Sam since the other party is not at his best.

Sam who halted in his tracks after noticing that his pursuers also stopped, sarted inspecting his current state. He used a lot of his energy. His body is hurting everywhere and he is losing his spiritual sense completely.

But he still has more than half a day to go through to win this first round of the competition. If that is not enough, he still has Dayus and his ridiculously powerful partner on his tail to take his life.

This is the worst situation he could be in.

And to top it off, he cannot use formations or his inventions to save himself.

He took a deep breath and took out one invention he could use to defend himself. Although limited, it is still within the limits of his tool access.

The handgun.

He can use ten bullets from this handgun. He didn't use a single one of them yet. He looked at Dayus and his partner who are discussing something and came to a decision.

Since this is also the last day, he might as well use all of it. And since Dayus is so eager to get a fight, he might as well give it.

But not before setting up one last trap, that will give him a slight upperhand.

So, Sam finally moved after some contemplation.

Meanwhile, Dayus and the clan members are in some serious discussion.

"I want you to use your trump card."

"Are you fucking mad? Do you know how much energy it takes from me to use that? And do you know how dangerous it can get? I can wield the power of an Actual Divine plane user with that. Even if it is just for one move. That is an overkill to use even amongst my peers.

There is no way, I am using this against someone who is already fighting an unfair battle."

"Where is all of this righteousness coming from? All you have to do is follow my orders. Anyway, the other party is very very strong. Not just physically, but intellectually as well.

If you ask me, this fight is more than fair.

Just do as I say."

"Not happening. I am not attacking him with that much power."

"Okay then. I don't want to argue. This is my ultimatum.

You can either capture him and kill him within the next ten minutes, or you use your trump card on him. Otherwise, I will see through the promise I made to you, which you all assumed to be a bluff.

I won't ask you anything again. I will just proceed along with the results of your choice."
