Chapter 1655: Testing

Sam noticed that the defense of the rats is too much and before he could even deal with them, the dogs already caught up.

He gritted his teeth and shook his head.

"If even the first floor is this tough, I wonder what the remaining floors would be like. And to think I would be having a hard time facing a bunch of rats and dogs. This is embarrassing."

He made a few hand signs as his shadow started moving.

He used the shadow necromancy to release his shadow undead. Their shapes are manipulated to spread on the ground far and wide.

At the same time, he also used the earth's elemental energy to crush the space under his feet. The rats that are moving under his feet suddenly felt the pressure of the earth. All the openings they created were now filled with large spikes.

The rats weren't stabbed though. Their skin was so tough that they were just pushed to the other edge of the hole. They were being crushed, and after so much effort, their internal organs started feeling the pressure, but their skin wasn't damaged in the slightest.

Sam finally managed to kill a couple of rats like that while crushing the earth. As for the rest, when they tried to jump around Sam tried to slither and slip around. As they landed in the shadows, they were caught in their place.

"Good thing I learned this shadow manipulation. These little shits. Just how annoying can they be."

As he was thinking, he caught hold of a dog and put it in a headlock. He used the energy observation and manipulation technique to powder its neck.

The dog died on the spot before Sam extended his hand. A bunch of energy gathered at his fingertips into a few energy bullets. They were shot at the rats that were caught. The shadows' tentacles forced open the rats' mouths as the energy bullets went inside and exploded.

The rats turned into a bunch of meat paste before they disappeared.

Sam heaved a sigh as he retrieved his shadows. He didn't expect such a challenge from this place. This is actually one of the most annoying battles he has been in.

Before he could be glad that this is over, he noticed that a horde of rats is coming toward him.

"Fucking hell."

He muttered to himself as he got on the harbinger and flew away into the sky. He didn't want to get into a direct confrontation with these things. They are way too tenacious for such little creatures.

He could only focus on contemplating different methods to kill these little fellows as fast as possible. But while he was thinking, he had to dodge some wind blades that came out of nowhere.

*SWOOSH*

The whistling sound of the blades going right past him made him vigilant once again and he looked around. He saw a bunch of chickens coming from the direction of the barn. Being shocked would be an understatement for what Sam felt at that moment.

He barely wrapped his head around the fact that the rats became this strong, now there are some chickens that are coming from the barn that can throw a really dangerous wind blade from almost 1000 meters away.

As if that is not enough, they can glide pretty well. Even though the chickens originally cannot fly, it seems like the hell gave them the ability to glide a lot more than they actually should be capable of.

Now came another twist. As Sam dodged the wind blades something else came along. The roosters started screaming at him and the sonic waves hit Sam disturbing his balance a bit.

Sam used an energy barrier to block them before he shot a fireball at the birds. Which was simply destroyed by the sonic waves. They didn't even bother to dodge the golden flames that came at them.

Sam couldn't help but roll his eyes at this situation. These creatures are so tenacious in terms of their physical endurance. He didn't even have this much trouble when he was dealing with Divine League.

He gritted his teeth and moved towards the chickens on the harbinger. These ranged attacks are going to be more troublesome than the rats. The staff started glowing with spatial energy as he swung it at the nearest chicken.

The concentrated spatial energy exploded with the void style. It almost happened in slow motion as the surrounding energy gathered into small energy pellets because of the staff. These energy pellets collided together once again and created a massive explosion in an instant.

The chicken that was hit in the head, exploded on the spot.

The pieces that came out of the explosion crashed into the surroundings, creating smaller explosions wherever they landed. One of those pieces landed on the nearest chicken which was gliding and also crashed into the ground.

Of course, it didn't die.

Sam checked the staff and shook his head.

"I could kill a dozen guys with this energy. Even the humans that I fought on this floor were easier. I wonder what's the difference and why this is happening."

He muttered to himself and proceeded to fight.

As he was floating in the air and fighting the chickens and the rats, he noticed something else. He looked at the barn and there are a bunch of chickens coming out of it once again followed by a bunch of rats.

He frowned and looked at the already crowded area.

"Fuck it."

As he spoke, he extended his hand forward. An energy barrier was formed and small energy spheres gathered all around him. He closed his eyes and controlled the spheres. They spread around the rats that are on the ground.

A formation was created and a controlled explosion was on the way.

*BOOM*

Half of the rats died and Sam moved forward with another formation, but this time in the middle of the air as he destroyed a few chickens.

He then moved towards the barn as he let the remaining injured chickens follow him along with the rats.

He got a look at the barn. It is large. Maybe the largest one he has ever seen. He has never seen such a big barn in either of his lives.

And there are two entries for that barn. One of them is letting out chickens that are flying toward him while the other entrance is letting out rats.

He doesn't know how many going to come out. But it doesn't seem like a small amount. It is almost never-ending.

He contemplated for a bit and turned around before leaving the area. After he reached a certain distance out of the field, the chickens stopped following him and went back.

Sam hovered there in the air as he sat down on the harbinger while contemplating. He took out a scroll and started mapping whatever he found until now.

He managed to clear a few areas at the start. But the remaining two areas he visited after that, one with the police officer and the other with the barn and the creatures are going to take some time as he needs to figure out a proper countermeasure for them.

After mapping that out, he only has two more areas to explore and the first floor would be completely explored. Of course, he does need to kill all of these things. But at least he will get some breathing space until he finished the whole exploration.

He can also figure out if this terrain and the area offer anything that he could take advantage of while dealing with these things.

After some thought, he proceeded with the plan and hovered around on the harbinger as he moved to a different area.

This one is a lot better. The people are stronger and he came across some cats as well, but they are not as tough as the rats and hens, and they are nowhere near the policeman in the uniform.

He dealt with the people there easily within the day. He spared his energy without any consideration. All he did is sit back and recover while thinking of ways to deal with the creatures.

He finished off the last remaining area as well before finally coming back to the barn area. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovelꜰɪre.ɴet

First, he captured one of the chickens and one of the rats with much effort and brought them out of the barn area.

As soon as they are out, the creatures struggled like they were being tortured by some kind of curse. They are screeching and screaming. But they didn't die at all.

Sam took them back to the area and they finally stopped struggling. They even got their strength back.

After that, he went back to the barn area and once again captured a couple of these creatures before going back to the sub-urban area. He dropped these creatures in front of the police officer. To his expectations, the policeman fired a couple of shots at the rats and the chickens and they died.

The corruption energy was attributed to Sam.
