Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

The first wave of lion hunters engages with whatever threat comes to their town. They don't have a choice.

Based on how they fare against the threat, the rest of the town reacts. If the otherside is overwhelming, the second wave with a much larger force intervenes and the rest of the soldiers are to start making preparations.

Preparations are for two scenarios. One of them is to tackle the enemies that are coming at them and another one is to create a destruction plan and escape from that spot.

But if they are consciously following that plan, they should at least be preparing right now. They didn't show any emotions. They are just robotically doing the same monotonous activity they are doing until now.

Only the first wave of lion hunters arrived with some ferocity.

The two undead creatures that stayed back with Sam made a move on these soldiers.

There are twenty-five of them. And all of them are on the same level as Sam. So, it is obviously going to be a difficult fight, even if Sam is fully involved. So, the undead creatures were no match for them.

But the undead are not responsible for killing them directly. Their goal is to stall them and try to injure them if possible. And for that, they started using all sorts of tricks. They disappeared into a puff of smoke whenever someone attacked. They reappeared the soldiers and just landed a very small attack out of nowhere.

The attacks are aimed at the back of the soldiers' knees or on their arms when they are about to shoot.

Even with that, Sam is not really able to kill them. The shadow undead is being destroyed as they got caught one time or the other. But they are of course being regenerated, which is taking Sam's energy a lot.

But it is still going according to Sam's plan.

While he tried to figure out a different iteration for the scanning technique he is currently using, he is also trying to understand the lethality of these bullets.

When he was being attacked with the handguns, the bullets are unable to penetrate through the energy barrier. The barrier barely fluctuated. Just from what he could see, he should be simultaneously attacked with over a few dozen bullets.

All of those bullets should land on the barrier at the same time and they should all cover a certain area for it to work.

But the bullets from the assault rifles are a bit different. Their attack power from one volley of their shots is enough to destroy the barrier. Sam had to recreate the barrier for every attack.

These things are not the most shocking for him though. He received the most shock when he was attacked by the grenades and the snipers.

The sniper bullets are so precise and concentrated that they penetrated through the barrier. A hole appeared in the barrier instead of completely breaking.

The rest of the barrier is completely intact and only one clean and precise hole is formed.

Sam almost got caught off guard. His shadow undead appeared as a black puff and blocked the bullet before getting destroyed.

Sam felt the pinch as the energy left his body to regenerate the undead creature. The sniper bullets are still coming through.

So, the undead not only has to deal with the people that are coming at him from the front, they also have to sacrifice themselves to block these sniper bullets.

Sam thought he could endure it until he finished the scan of the surroundings. But only when they launched their first grenade did he understand how wrong he is.

*BOOM*

Sam's barrier was blown away and so was he.

From within the dust cloud of the explosion, Sam slowly got up with an aching body. If not for the fact that he blocked the attack at the last moment, he would have been toast. He is pretty sure he would have gotten some severe internal injuries.

The next moment, he disappeared into a puff of smoke and reappeared at the rear of the soldiers.

A sniper bullet went through the head of his afterimage.

Sam took out his own handguns and shot rapidly at the soldiers from the back.

*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*

It was neither as fast nor as concentrated as the assault rifles in their hands. But they worked. A few people died on the spot immediately.

*BOOM*

On top of that Sam concentrated on some specific targets. The grenade holders. He just shot on the grenades to increase the damage.

When a grenade exploded, the soldiers are smart enough to react immediately. But at least three people are dying on the spot while the rest of the surrounding people are being injured severely.

He took full advantage of the situation to the maximum. In two minutes, he disappeared from the spot again and reappeared at a different place.

He just went on with the barrage of bullets.

A sniper bullet once again hit the afterimage he left behind.

As Sam killed the people that are after him, he realized one thing. The regular shooters are not really that dangerous. Both in terms of defense and offense, they are much worse if they are compared to the police officer he faced on the previous floor.

The police officer's gun is much more lethal. He was precise, his defense is almost impossible to penetrate.

But here these guys are being easily taken down as long as Sam managed to get out of their firing range.

As log as he can dodge the bullets, he can even kill a person who is wielding an assault rifle with just a single shot.

This is extremely surprising.

As he thought about that, he speculated that might be the reason because these people are just the very first enemies he faced in the third floor. They are just as strong as the watchers that were on the towers.

They are clearly smarter and they are not running purely on instincts like the police officer.

Currently, the only opponents that are as strong as the police officer or even a bit stronger might be the snipers.

It is not just their lethality. Sam wasn't even able to find them. His shadow undead that abandoned the scanning of the place is currently looking for the snipers that are firing at Sam.

He estimated their locations based on the direction the bullets came from, but he is always falling short of knowing their accurate location.

By the time Shadow's undead went there, the snipers are disappearing.

But that is not exactly a disadvantage for Sam. He might have to exhaust more energy at the moment, but while he is dealing with the rest of the town, the current scenario is considered an added bonus.

Because the difficulty of whoever came to attack is measured by the time they took to deal with the first wave. In a way, the first wave is just a suicidal measuring scale.

So, if Sam takes a long time to deal with the first wave, then the difficulty of the next waves will not be as high. This will give him more breathing space when fighting with them.

He let the shadow undead try and pursue the snipers while he dealt with the ground battle. The only problem is that he is consuming too much energy this way.

He could also feel the corruption energy seeping into his body.

It is denser and more powerful as well when compared to what he got on the second floor.

But he is not worried. Because he already had a small game plan in his mind that will let him have a bit smoother time when dealing with the rest of the town.

So, he just focused on dragging the battle while dealing with the first wave of soldiers. After the few grenade explosions he caused, they wised up and decided to stay away from each other. They spread out used the houses for their cover.

Sam didn't mind that. He let them drag the battle out and in the process, started collecting the weapons that fell from the people that died.

He wasn't able to acquire the pistol from the police officer. Mostly because he dealt with him in such a high profile but indirect manner.

But now he was able to acquire these guns, so he wants to see if he can use them for his own good.

He caught a few assault rifles and then some more handguns to see how they function. He replaced his weapons with these and continued the fight.

He is surprised by how precise the design of the weapons is. The energy effect that came from these bullets is also caused by a very intricate inscription on the inner mechanism.

If Sam had to design a gun in this world to sell to the masses, then this would be it. He doubts that he could do a better job than this. This one has lethality, but it is not as drastic as Sam's personal guns. It is perfect for selling it on the scale.
