Chapter 1583 Back to Gaja After meeting with Arkiv, Sam spent some time with him and went back to work mode.
Even though he really liked this small break he took and felt that he deserved it, he knew he cannot continue like this for long.
This time the enemy is a bit trickier than before. This is probably the first time that he has to worry about the quality and the intellect of the enemy, instead of their raw strength.
He decided to get as much information on them as possible before deciding on his strategy.
But before that, he has to finish up things in desolate and get back to the Gaja clan. There are some promises he needed to fulfill there.
So, he assigned all the tasks to the trio and his subordinates. Even though the trio did a great job in his absence, the massive spending on the equipment created still put a strain on the finances and messed up some plans for organizational growth.
Since they also got some loot from various organizations that covered these losses, he needs to figure out a way to make up for the missing time in this growth process, allocating these extra resources.
While dealing with this problem, he also started designing something. The designs for the vehicles, that Gamin and Yuvana asked for.
They didn't want some fancy flying machine, in fact, they wanted a rough vehicle for the rough terrains they usually travel in.
He cannot think of much other than Motorcycles.
In his previous life Motor cycle has been one of the best releases from the work and stress he accumulated with his role and responsibilities. They are fast, and free, and based on the rider could be dangerous also.
He wanted to design those things and give them to the couple. The addition of their blade usage just like how he implemented sword energy usage in Jack's hoverboard, will make it much more suitable for them.
So, he spent half of the time designing that while the other half was spent on organizational development.
He spent a bit more than a week doing that.
After that was done, he was finally ready to go back.
This time the trio wanted to tag along though.
"I will take you guys with me. I do need your help to deal with these guys, but not at the moment. You guys stay put and deal with the organizational matters first.
I will go there and gather the information needed for now. We know way too little about the enemy and the main problem is that the person we are dealing with is not just these three guys. We need to be careful about the teacher of these three and the subordinates they have under them.
When they are that strict in the selection process, there is no way they could have let some random people be their subordinates, I will spend some time studying all of these factors and come pick you guys up before I leave.
Meanwhile, assign the teams to Arkiv. Let him take them to the other organization that we are not participating in.
There is no use of them here, at least at the moment."
The trio looked at each other. They are a bit reluctant, but they agreed.
But before Sam left, Jack took out a red-colored metallic token and gave it to Sam.
Sam looked at the token in surprise. It is similar to another token that he has seen in the past. The token of the people from the league of blood iron.
"Take this token and use your blood on it when you are in the Gaja clan's territory, you will get a nice surprise.
We thought we would surprise you by ourselves after we go there. But since you are leaving earlier, this will help you.
"Is it related to the League of Blood Iron?"
"It kinda is."
"Don't tell me, you destroyed it," Sam asked in a surprised tone.
"Do you really think we had that much time? And even if we want to, we cannot destroy that. In fact, after learning about this surprise, even you would be reluctant to do so. Just go and check it out."
Sam shrugged and put the token in the storage.
He went to meet the siblings so that they can leave.
"I really don't want to leave this place. This is really a nice place to stay and enjoy." Grivon said in a dejected tone.
"It's not like you cannot come back. You can come back whenever you like. Just meet one of the managers and he will arrange the stay for you."
"Yeah, but the journey is so tedious. It is not like I carry around that slick transportation device as you do."
"Then don't come. You are the one who is already missing the place before we even left."
Sam just brushed him off and took out the Dimensional drifter. He took the three of them and arrived at the Gaja clan grounds.
The first thing that greeted their eyes is the city that is under construction. All of the earth elemental users are being guided by the artisans and the formation masters as they constructed every part of the city.
Since it is a city linked with intricate formations, it is impossible for them to not construct all of the elements simultaneously so there are no mishaps later.
They met with the Clan's leader, Gail, Gamin, and Yuvana.
Sam handed over the motorcycle designs to them.
"Will these people even be able to make these things?"
Gamin asked as he looked at the designs in awe.
Sam even gave a recording crystal with a virtual demonstration of what the final product will look like.
The couple is completely smitten with these designs. They liked it so much.
"I could make them myself, but I think my cultivation level would be a bit of a problem here. For you, we will need a metal like a meteorite sand that gets stronger with the exposure to spiritual energy, and metal that could handle that speed when you are using these things will be hard for me to forge.
Even with all the enhancements that I could make, it will still be difficult for me.
A metal that is not that strong will be easier, but you won't be able to use it for a long time. A really long time.
So, as long as you can find a decent artisan that can build this, I will coordinate with them to see to it that the final product is of decent quality without any hiccups."
The couple nodded in excitement. They didn't even lift their eyes up from the blueprint and went over to the side to take a look at the demo video again.
After that Sam met with Senior Elder Ma.
"Here to repay your debts?"
He asked Sam with a faint smile.
"Yeah. Tell me what do you want?"
"A discussion would be nice. I have been doing some really complicated research recently, I want your take on it."
"That is it?"
"That's enough. It is no use getting something physical or materialistic from you. I have no use for them. Your knowledge is your most valuable asset anyway, I would rather have a chunk of that one."
"I will be staying here for a few days, so we can discuss as much as you want."
"That would be great. I have something to do now anyway, so let's talk later."
Sam left and went back to meet Gail.
Previously Gail was busy with his own work, so Sam had to wait.
Now he got some time to discuss.
"You need info on Divine Formation Mountain?"
"Yes."
"Are you sure you want an enmity with them?"
"Yes, I do. They took Sivan away. Currently, they cannot do much even if they perform soul extraction on Sivan, but that won't last long.
They will figure out a way to get all of those memories and I don't want that to happen."
"But they are in the grey circle. In fact, the leader of that mountain is a key player. He cannot be underestimated at all. The worst part is, that he doesn't even need many subordinates and territories, because people who have those things directly come and help him voluntarily.
Half of the grey circle is trying to kiss his ass. You will be in some real trouble."
"I can understand that, but it is impossible for me to back down. I need to get as much info on them as possible.
I cannot just let them be. The memories are way too crucial."
"If you wish to know, I can tell you all that I know of."
"That would be great. We can talk when you are free. You can handle your work. I can wait for a while."
Gail nodded and went back to deal with his own work.
Meanwhile, Sam went back to his residence and took out the red-colored token Jack gave him. He put a few drops of his blood on it to see what will happen.
