Chapter 1516: Worms attack

The four worms moved at their top speed underground.

Sivan is having a hard time estimating Sam's thoughts process. He completely believed that Sam is the one doing this. Because in his mind, there is no one else skilled enough to figure out a way to control the Lava worms.

That also made him think of more questions and raised many more doubts.

The lava worms are actually moving away from within their operating range of the golems. The farther the worms move, the harder it is to control the golems. This gave him a bad feeling.

As he was thinking, the golems that are constantly raising up again and again, didn't move towards the camp. The Grand elders stopped and proudly returned to the camp.

Sivan noticed this and spoke up.

"What the hell are you doing back inside?"

"The golems are leaving. We can just leave those things for themselves."

Sivan frowned as he looked at the golems that are moving away.

They are moving in all kinds of directions. They are circle around the camp and running away.

Looking at the directions they are moving in, Sam once again saw the directions the worms are moving in. The bad premonition increased again.

He went back and talked to the formation masters. He quickly drew something roughly and asked.

"What happens with this kind of formation? Can you round up the measurements and span and estimate it?"

"I can try, but it will take a few minutes."

"Just do it."

The formation master started drawing some patterns and calculated with the help of his colleagues. Meanwhile, Avlyn came and said something to Sivan.

"The worms stopped moving. I think they are coming up now."

Sivan looked at the surroundings once again and updated the formation masters with the locations of the worms.

At this moment, the golems that are spread across the whole span suddenly stopped.

The worms came out of the ground and their heads faced the camp from all of those sides.

Sivan and Avlyn saw this and both of them frowned. Three of the Divine league's group members became alert and noticed something is wrong with the whole scenario.

All of the golems suddenly started glowing and even the Lava worms did the same. At the mouth of each worm, there is a large ball of pure fire elemental energy gathered and then it is enveloped by another earth elemental energy barrier around it.

All four of the worms did the same and the golems rolled themselves into the balls and concentrated all of the energy.

Sam who is sitting inside the tower within the Gaja clan's estate, currently had a faint smile on his face.

And as soon as that smile appeared, the lava worms shot the energy balls out.

They came out along with waves of elemental energies that hit the golems that are rolled themselves into balls.

They acted like cannonballs that were shot through the cannons. They were covered with flames that are burning red hot.

All of them made their way to the camp with extreme force.

The grand elders immediately jumped to action as they tried to defend the camp.

Four people from the Divine league also came up and assisted the Grand elders to defend.

Four energy barriers were created on four sides and the Divine league members jumped into the sky with their weapons brandished. They targeted the bigger energy balls and left the rest of them to the grand elders.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

Four energy clashes happened and the large balls that came at them like meteors were crushed into debris which spread among the camp.

The four divine league members felt the impact of the attack and backed down in shock.

At least they managed to defend against the attack. If they didn't do that, they are sure that half of the camp would be destroyed.

The four of them went back to meet Avlyn and asked.

"Boss, what is up with these things? When Sivan explained and gave demos with these things, he didn't say he could do this?

They are only supposed to be some kind of golem makers. Why can they attack like that? What does that even mean? Is Sivan trying to play us by withholding info?"

"No, it just means, that he might have stolen these things, but only the maker knows how to truly use them."

Avlyn replied with a smile and by now the camp is already in chaos. The barriers can only stop so many golem cannon balls that came. Some of them fell into the camp and killed some people here and there.

Some got injured.

But no matter how, the golems disappeared and the soul orbs came out of them.

They floated away and went back to the Gaja estate as if they are being called by someone.

One of the Divine league members saw this and took out something that looked like a crystal jar and jumped high.

He caught one of the soul orbs in the crystal jar before closing it down.

The soul orb tried to get out of the jar with everything it had, but it was unable to.

The person who caught it had a deep frown on his face.

"What happened Cray?"

Avlyn asked him.

"This soul. It is part of a soul network."

"What? Did you just say a Soul network?"

"Yes, someone made a soul network in the Gaja estate and they are using it to control these golems. Now that their work is done, they are going back to join the host of the soul network."

"But, it shouldn't be possible to create a soul network here. Isn't that what you said?"

"Yes, I think there is something different about this soul network too. I can't put my finger on it. There is definitely no trace of Divine will in this soul. But I can be sure that this is connected with the soul network."

"A bunch of mechanical creatures that could cause this much destruction and a soul network? No wonder the Gaja clan is confident in dealing with so many enemies."

As they were talking, the Grand elders who finished off the destruction of cannon ball golems that came at them, made their move towards the lava worms to destroy them.

For some reason, Sam didn't move them off immediately.

"Wait, you don't need to do that."

Sivan yelled out loud.

But the Grand elders didn't care. They all ran towards the worms as if they would be missing some treasure if they didn't.

Avlyn frowned and looked at the worms. There is faint difference in the worms than before. There is a faint glow that was there before and now it is missing.

"Didn't Sivan say that the worms are on low charge if they lost the glow? Why would these people go after these things like this if they are not a threat?"

One of her subordinates asked from the side.

"Because they are Greedy bastards. That is why. What else is there for them to gain?"

The four grand elders ran with all they got and the first one to reach his worm indeed had greedy eyes. He placed his hands on the worm as if he is testing it out, but as soon as he extended his hand forward, the worm glowed once again.

*BOOM*

The head of the worm exploded.

"AAAAAARRRRRGGHHHHH…"

The arm of the grand elder was torn apart immediately.

The remaining three grand elders stopped. They didn't dare to go forward.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

The remaining three also exploded. But the three grand elders were saved because of their cautious behaviour.

"Greedy bastards indeed."

Avlyn said calmly.

As she is thinking, she saw four soul orbs going away from the Four lava worms, they started moving towards the Lightning worms that are within the surrounding Mountain ranges.

The orbs that previously went back to the estate also went to the Lightning golems that popped up while he was dealing with the fire golems.

Sivan who watched all of this, felt horror dawn on his mind.

He immediately called for the people operating the lightning worms.

"Some orbs are coming your way. They are going to take control of the golems. Use the final discharge at the city before that happens."

"Sir, but using the final discharge is too dangerous. The worms are at very high power. That much backlash would be impossible for the machine's core mechanism to take.

It is too delicate. We would be losing a lot."

"You just fucking do what I told you to do. If the orbs come and take over the worms, you wouldn't even be having your lives. Just let the worms go to shit. I want the final discharges to be shot at the city. Right now."

"Yes sir."

The orbs are flying towards the lightning worms. Sivan looked at them hatefully and cursed.

"Sam, you bastard. Even if I have to lose all of my resources. I wouldn't let you win that easily."
