Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam collected the bodies, but before that, he skinned the backs of these Naga guys and stored them separately.

He started searching for another group and didn't take too long to find it, it is already dawn and it is not too long before the sunrise will happen.

But he didn't hurry, as he sent the puppets towards the next group he saw, he realized that apart from the formation, there are another group of people outside the formation lying in ambush, it seemed like a trap laid carefully.

But at this moment, he noticed that one of these people is taking out his communication token and is talking about something.

His face grew serious and there is a deep frown on his face as he commanded the troops.

"We are regrouping and going to active mode. Commander gave us orders that the sword formation group was eliminated, we are taking the active approach from now on and we are not going to be waiting for him to attack.

A team shouldn't have anyone less than ten people. Don't go any less no matter what. Form three teams, right here and move."

He started giving instructions and made his move.

There are thirty people in this group and Sam is looking forward to taking them out just like before, but it turned out that these people already learned about Sam's elimination of the first group, they are going from passive to active mode.

This signifies one more thing, Sam's leisure hunting time is over, and he would have to be careful.

Even though the forest is vast, there are more than four hundred people and they are searching in groups of ten, forty groups would be searching him.

There is no way he could move without any of them noticing.

Sam lamented a bit because his playtime is over, he has to start being serious too.

He was thinking whether he should make use of guns and explosives or not, it would be a short work. He is sure that he would be able to deal with them within thirty-six hours no matter how many they could be, the whole forest could be turned into a graveyard in that time period.

But after some thought, he felt like this is the best time to test his newly acquired skills.

He trained purely to increase his battle prowess in the last few days before his travel and he spent all his time inside the divine dimension.

But he didn't get to truly test these skills on the battlefield.

Particularly, the elements that he rarely used. It is about time he used them.

Sam went into the divine dimension for a second and looked at the Naga corpses that are laying down.

He placed his hand on them for a bit and after confirming that they are okay, he made some hand signs and bit hit finger to thrown something at the five corpses.

All of a sudden, the space around the corpse trembled and a large hole appeared, with a lot of dark elemental energy seeping out of it, Sam made a dragging motion and five large shadows came out of it and the portal was closed.

The five Naga shadows are still floating in the air without any reaction.

This one of the skills, he learned and he even used them before. The shadow necromancy.

For every living being in the real world, there would be a shadow created in the shadow world. This is not the shadow that appears when the light is present.

After that person is dead, the shadow would slowly disappear in the shadow world, and that is time for the necromancer to summon that shadow and make a contract with it. The shadow summoned will have half of its original ability of the person and it feeds off of the necromancer's spiritual energy to survive.

As long as Sam has enough spiritual energy he can let the contracted shadows survive and even nurture them by continuously feeding the shadow energy, the variant of dark elemental energy to them or even feeding the shadows of the opponents and dead bodies to them. And they will stay inside the contractor's shadows.

Once the contract is canceled, they can only stay for a time period in this world and at that time, they wouldn't have any contract so they would whatever they want with their limited skill.

Shadow necromancy is a skill that is not easily mastered and it is too advanced for even the Naga realm, but Sam preferred this over normal necromancy and soul necromancy because he also possesses shadow abilities innately because of the shadow mice.

With Sam's current strength and mental ability, he can at most make contract with two shadows of Nascent realm.

That is not a lot and it would take a lot for him to nurture them, particularly, when he also has to take care of the beasts. The part of the reason he made such a large business is to find resources for his beasts.

For now, he is safe because the home planet can provide resources until they reach the Transcendent stage, later he would have to venture to other realms to find them.

Sam looked at the five shadows in front of him and took some metallic cylinders and placed them within their chests.

The shadows can be solid or corporal based on their own wishes.

After placing the metallic cylinders, he stripped the Naga's dead bodies and donned the shadows with their armors.

He came out of the divine dimension and started moving towards the first group that already started moving away from this formation zone.

After nearing the group, with a wave of the hand he let out of a shadow of the Naga and let him move, the shadows are in the shape of the true form of the Nagas, not the humanoid form, not the human form.

The shadow looked at all sides with a confused expression, there is a faint shadow aura coming out of it and it doesn't know what exactly is happening. It sensed the movements of the group and moved towards them.

When the group sensed the shadow coming towards them, they first relaxed when they saw Naga silhouette and the armor, but when they received no response, they became extremely vigilant and got ready to attack.

The shadow doesn't have anything but survival instinct when it noticed the keen killing intent coming from the group, it halted in its tracks and wanted to run away, but the soldiers didn't let it go just like that, they started attacking and when the physical attacks or elemental attacks no matter what reached them, the shadows the first reaction would be to turn into corporal state and swim through the shadow regions surrounding it.

And it did that same and since it doesn't understand the significance of the armor and the metallic cylinder they are dropped.

The troops ran after the shadow and when they reached the pile of armor and the metallic cylinder, they were surprised, but still approached it.

The company commander called back the soldiers and stopped them from going after the shadow, they took the cylinder and examined it, they don't know what it is, but all they know is that there is a button on it.

Curiosity is a demon. As the company commander pressed the button…

*BOOM*

A large explosion happened and a lot of metallic spikes sprayed all over them, there is even green flame burning them all over as their flesh decayed slowly.

Sam came out of hiding along with the bee puppets, the two puppets first went over the bodies to see if there are any living beings and indeed the company commander and two more Nagas in the group are able to survive. Even though they are nearest to the explosion, they are the only ones to survive.

These are the special grenades, which the factory-made. They are a modified version of Sam's original grenade and an experiment for a patent.

Even though it is not purely original, the scale of explosion and the scale of damage modified perfectly and the decaying flame is implemented to a degree that the bodies wouldn't completely degrade.

In fact, this grenade is not for mass killing, rather it is to make the enemies immobile. If it is thrown at the enemies or even stepped on, they can still recognize the danger and evade or defend, in those cases it would barely immobilize them. But these guys are really too foolish to press an unknown object right in the middle of their group and all of them all over each other trying to get a peek at it.

He didn't expect this at all. Almost all the enemies on the home planet knew that Sam's organization produce some great grenades and they all have the necessary measures, so these types of new grenades are really useful.

But here, they are more useful than they are supposed to be.

The hunt that Sam thought would be a bit difficult is becoming way too easier.
