The modification to the puppets made the spirits obey Sam instead of the lightning swan sect and now they are stationed at the vein of the mine.
He and his team escaped immediately and went to another mine. For the next two days, they moved around all the mines that the Lightning Swan sect has a partnership with the Brother One and did the same.
The news reached the Lightning Swan sect pretty early. They didn't expect that in one mine after the other every worker would suddenly faint.
All their spirit stones were gone. Before they could think of what possibly happened, they didn't let the workers back into the mine, but as soon as the workers were evacuated, the puppets moved and went to the vein of the mine.
The puppets all started slamming into the veins with their mechanical arms and slowly uncovered the glowing core of the mine which is the source of all the spirit stones.
The puppet's arms started glowing as it slammed into the core and a large amount of pure and chaotic energy was injected into the vein and the same thing happened with the rest of the puppet.
*BOOM*
A large explosion of spiritual energy happened to collapse the mine completely, there is not even a single trace of mine left there and the energy waves stuck the surroundings destroying the hills, rocks, and any kind of possible terrain that surrounded it.
When the dust settled all the people could feel in that spot is the turbulent chaotic waves of energy that could destroy the low-level cultivators as soon as they entered the area and a large pile of rubble formed by the mine and the surrounding terrain.
As soon as the explosion happened the officials who are stationed in the nearest town to investigate the matter ran over to take a look and reported back to the sect.
Inside the main hall of the Lightning Swan sect, the sect leader is holding a meeting with the elders regarding the mine incident. Not the explosion but rather the theft.
But in the middle of the meeting, an attendant ran in and informed me about the explosion.
"Elders, one of the robbed mines had exploded."
"What? How?"
The elders were stunned. But that is not over. Another attendant soon ran over informing of a similar incident and then another attendant followed.
Sam and the team didn't stay there to see the aftermath, they just left as soon as they robbed and went to their next target directly.
It is the first organization the Brother two from the second branch visited. They proceeded to do something similar as they robbed and destroyed the mines for three days and left to the third place which is the organization visited by the Brother Three of the third branch.
Here on top of going after the mines, Sam went after large fields too. He let the Zoi termites have a feast of their lifetime and they made a death elemental energy rain over the empty fields afterward.
One week took the first circle of the trips and Sam sent the team to the next target which is the second organization visited by Brother One who is on the way to the third organization, while he went to the Capital to get in touch with Kiran to get the new information.
Currently, the rest of the players are cold and are not doing anything. Akhil and Donner didn't even reveal themselves, while Dayus is with Brother One. Kumar and Noah are also staying out of business, for now, to see what happens. Their plan failed as the blame went to Sam.
The kids are still here with the guardians. The poison would take a lot of time to get out of the system before they woke up.
Normally, they would have made a commotion at the subordinate powers and made them suspect the Puppet organization, but no matter what they did now, the blame would go to Sam and they cannot guarantee that they would be able to create a proper conflict between the subordinate organizations and the Puppet organization.
Sam got the required information from Kiran and Shadow mice before leaving.
Kiran is still regularly going to the businesses and kept on using the cursed energy liquids.
The news about the blasted mines already reached the Puppet organization, but Sam didn't care too much about it and he also learned that the squads are doing their job properly.
The probing attacks and the feigning attacks are being made.
Sam proceeded like this for another week and destroyed a bunch of subordinate organizations' resources and obviously, all the blame was pinned upon him.
Brother two and Brother three who lost a considerable amount of people in the previous attack and barely managed to escape went back to their branches.
But Brother One refused to do the same and currently, he is in the capital having a meeting with the Organization head and Dayus is beside him.
"Thirty-two spirit stone mines, twelve metal mines, eighteen herb fields all destroyed in two weeks, and all of them belonged to the subordinate organizations that had their children poisoned under our watch. Just what is happening? What is the motive of the Sam guy you mentioned? Or is this completely a different person and that Sam or whatever his name is had nothing to do with this?"
When asked this question, Brother One didn't know what to say, but he gritted his teeth and bluffed.
"He is the one related to the incident and he is the one that did all this. Try using the family resources to capture him instead of grinding me like this. I have another diplomatic visit to do."
The head of the branch calmed down and said.
"This is about the diplomatic visit. We are planning something."
With that, the branch head explained the plan. That day the news of the next visit of Brother one was spread rapidly among the other branches, the capital, and the subordinate organizations too.
The news spread like wildfire.
Sam doesn't know what exactly they are planning, but whatever it is, he is ready to see through it.
Right before Brother one is about to leave the city, Kiran who is disguised as Prash ran over to him. His body is full of injuries and he is in an extremely pathetic state.
"What happened Prash?"
Prash didn't reply and just fainted.
Brother One immediately had his companions take him to rest while they fed healing pills to him after confirming that he only suffered flesh wounds.
He sent attendants to find out what happened and half an hour later, they came back.
When he heard the news, he was stunned and ran out to take a look himself.
He went to his main weapon shop in the capital and currently, there are more than a hundred people flooding it and demanding a refund and all of them held broken weapons in their hands.
From all the shouting he could hear, the weapons are all corroded and collapsed only a few days after they bought them.
He then went to the herb and medicine shop and the situation is the same, in fact, it is worse because the repercussions are worse here.
Many people are asking for an explanation as they could feel something wrong with their bodies. They are coughing violently and they are all extremely weak and all of this happened because they used the potions and pills from this shop.
There are also some pill makers and potion makers who bought the herbs and came to ask for a refund.
He knew that he cannot show his face at a time like this and since Prash cannot wake up now, he called for another lackey to report as soon as he went back to his residence.
When he learned the news, shock is an understatement to describe his emotion.
All the weapons sold in the past week are damaged and everyone came for the refund and all the herbs and medicines that were sold are all turned out to be rubbish and some people even got some kind of infection from them.
And the worst part is the biggest buyers all made their way to the Puppet organization headquarters. He now understood why Prash came running towards him, but he seemed to have been beaten up by one of the buyers and fainted before he could deliver the news.
Dayus who learned the information as he sat beside Brother One, felt a bad premonition in his heart.
He is already regretting his actions in the past few days due to the after-effects. He thought that Sam would react the same way he did when he was labeled as a terrorist by the empire. But attacking the Puppet organization directly, but instead, he went after the outer members of the puppet organization who are merely subordinates, this didn't make sense to him.
But he is already feeling a headache as Brother One started trusting him less and less day by day.
Still, since the rest of the plan is going well, he managed to stay away from too much suspicion and the young master didn't resort to extreme measures.
But with this incident, he is definitely feeling a bit troubled.
