Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer-Chapter 1737: Friend

Six months passed by like they were nothing.

The players spent all of their time in Hell. Killing the creatures that are manifested from their own sins of the past.

Sam is getting used to facing them more and more and he also got used to finding out what kind of powers they might have and what kind of weaknesses will tag along with those powers. He can easily take care of most of the opponents and for the free tricky ones, he started having much easier time that he is supposed to.

Hel who is spectating all of this, obviously didn't like it.

But she didn't do anything. There are not abrupt increases in difficulty and there are no extra obstacles are placed in front of him.

He just went through the training and he cleared floors at a rapid pace. While the other players just crossed a benchmark of fifteen floors, Sam is already at his twenty-third.

But of course, this difference means little at the moment, because he has a lot more floors than the other players, so he has to find a way to speed up the process even more.

At this moment, Sam is once again meditating but this time, he is properly dressed as well and he is in his best condition. His body is completely devoid of corrupt energy and refinement is also done.

In fact, he even had a lot of rest.

He is in the best condition possible with a bit of increased divine energy in his body.

As he awaited to be taken away and thrown into the grey space, he felt the familiar suction.

He reappeared in the grey space along with the players. They all looked to be in their perfect condition as well. Hel looked at them and smiled.

"Everyone of you took the knowledge of knowing the time of the task and used it for the advantage. You are all in perfect condition.

Maybe that is to be expected, I guess.

There is one thing that I want to mention to you though. Even if you are in this perfect condition, I wonder if it would even help you in the next task. This time, the players don't get involved in each other's tasks.

And this time, you are also going to be seeing some of your loved ones. The arrangements are made a long time ago.

Don't take this too personally. The recent developments and grudges don't have anything to do with the territories, people, and the gods that might be related to this place. So, I suggest none of you take this personally and start holding new grudges."

Sam frowned at this.

"What do you mean, our loved ones are involved?"

Hel didn't answer and just sent them away.

Sam clenched his fists as he disappeared from the spot, he reappeared in an open grassplain.

He doesn't have any restrictions on his body, energy and strength. He has all of his weapons and he could even access almost all of his weapons except for the ones that use liquid energy and liquid energy capsules.

There are not many restrictions at all. Compared to the previous scenarios, this is actually very liberal and he indeed has full strength.

This didn't make him happy though. The only reason he didn't have inherent restrictions through the game rules might be because the game itself requires him to be like that. Then the task would be extremely dangerous.

Thinking of the part where Hel said that his loved ones are involved, he felt extremely anxious.

He looked around and he could see a city far away.

He wanted to move in that direction, but before he could even channel his energy, he got a message in his head.

"You are advised to stay there instead of leaving. You have twenty-three minutes and thirty-eight seconds for one of your close ones, someone really important to you is going to come and meet you in an opportune way.

They don't know you are here and they don't know why you are here.

You can leave the place you want to. In fact leaving the spot and searching the nearest city that you could see, might even help you. Gathering information as fast as you can and as much as you can, might even go a long way.

Decide based on what you want to do. As you can see most of your powers are not restricted. And in fact, you will have a lot more liberty in the way you can finish the task.

You will know more details as you proceed with it.

The whole task is decided on various parameters.

And as mentioned, you will know more details as you proceed with it."

Sam looked at the surroundings and thought of what to do. Both cases have its advantages, but he doesn't have to actually pick between both of them.

The shadow undead came out of his shadow and spread to different directions. Half of them went to the city and the other half are examining the surrounding areas of the city. As for his immediate surroundings, he decided to check them out with his soul from the specter.

He even let out the beasts immediately just in case. At this point he doesn't care if he captures the attention, in fact he would really like to catch some more attention from others.

He has to find out who is involved in the trouble and even though his overwhelming presence might actually attract some attention from others and might even blow up the whole thing, he will find out faster and then can solve it faster.

He even let the beasts spread out just in case. After all, if someone is indeed closer to him, they will be able to see his beasts and recognize them instantly.

Sam sat and took a few steps around to observe the immediate surroundings. He focused mostly on flora, fauna and soil types.

Meanwhile, after a few minutes have passed he noticed something.

Sky came over to him and landed near him.

[I think I saw Jack over in the city]

"Jack is here?"

Sam is surprised.

[I think it is him. But I don't know for sure. It seems like he is trying to hide his identity. But the aura felt familiar and the sword was just like the Black meteorite sword. He saw me too, I attracted quite some attention from the city and the city guards.

In fact, those guards are coming this way.

I figured that person might follow me if it is really Jack]

"That's true. Let's wait for others then. I can see the shadows moving around in the city."

Sam closed his eyes and got some information from the shadows."

"Indeed, you really pulled a stunt over that city. Almost everyone is talking about you. But it is also a good thing, shadows are having an easier time finding information. They already got info on the basic structure of the city and stuff."

Soon, Yanwu, Raiju, Dia, and other beasts started showing up one after another.

[Ape found something in the forest behind the city. He wants you to come and check it out.]

Yanwu said as soon as he arrived.

"What is it?"

[It is something that is emitting a pure sword aura. And it has traces of gods in it as far as I can tell. Ape noticed that the surroundings are a bit weird and he is investigating. He is saying that someone from Dusk might have come there.

So, I came back to report.]

"Okay then, do one thing, you go back and assist Ape. Take another one to help you guys out. Since it is a forest, Bear might be helpful with the wood element and you can take Dia also if you want. She can help with investigating the terrain.

There are five more minutes before the time to meet. So, let's see if that really happens."

Yanwu and the beasts left. They didn't seem to find anyone powerful enough to stop them or endanger them in the surroundings and Sam got confident when he got a basic understanding of the power structure in the city.

As he spoke, Sky looked at the city and took a spin in the air before coming back and reporting to Sam.

Sam heaved a sigh as he looked into that direction. He injected his spiritual energy into his eyes along with the eye technique. He could now clearly see what is happening there.

The familiar face of his friend Jack is not something that he could easily forget.

He is relieved to see that he is doing okay.

He is currently moving on his hoverboard and there are a bunch of people following him on beasts.

In terms of pure speed, Jack's might be the slowest board of the four, and these beasts are no pushovers. They are really keeping up.

"Okay guys, I am sure you want to help him out. Don't you?"

[Of course, it has been way too long for us to get out. It is time to let loose a little.]

Sky zoomed in the air as wind elemental energy wreaked havoc in the surroundings.

Jack who is having a very slight problem with the people that are chasing him, smirked as he looked at the sky and when the gigantic bird reached them, Jack said only one thing.

"Don't kill them. Help me chase them away. Scare those beasts first."
