It took a lot of time for Claudius to reach the location where Sam had disappeared to.
But when he reached there, there was nothing to be found. In fact it took him a while to even figure out the location of the hideout.
He destroyed the entrance with a technique and entered the cave.
He was in for a surprise when he entered the mid-section of the cave, the path he took to enter collapsed all of a sudden due to some explosion and he was trapped inside .
After he was trapped, further explosions took place inside the area and this time the explosion was mixed with poisonous gas from the red and black smoke.
If Claudius had waited for backup and proper investigation team, then it would have been a different scenario.
But Claudius had immense confidence in his spiritual sense and strength, which led to his own downfall.
Sam had planned this trap very carefully so that it won't be detected easily with spiritual sense.
Claudius was not seriously injured, but he was affected by the poison which made it so that he couldn't follow Sam and Levi with his full speed.
The deeper one went into the forest the harder it became to track and as time passed by, even though reinforcement arrived it became almost impossible to track the rebel's whereabouts.
By the time the troops reorganized and went back to the village.
The video that Sam had sent had already become viral and many people started questioning the intention of the alliance government.
The temple of Eternity even gave a stern warning, Claudius and the rest could only grind their teeth and leave
...
Two weeks passed by and the village life was slowly returning to normal.
The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
There was no news of Sam and Levi.
Sam had appeared with his original look to save Levi and he had disappeared from the village a long time before the troops arrived. So no one connected both the identities immediately and even if someone connected it, He didn't care as he was determined to leave the village.
Sam had already revealed his secret identity to Levi and Levi invited Sam to join him as he didn't have any specific destination to go to.
Today two silhouette's appeared out of the great forest very far away from the violet flower village.
One of the silhouettes didn't have an arm and wore a white mask.
The person had also covered the majority of his body with a blanket.
The other was a young man with sharp brown eyes, trimmed beard and a well maintained body.
A black golden chain jewellery hung on one of his hands.
The young man wore casual dress completely opposite to the other guy.
This was Sam and Levi who had come out of their hiding.
They walked towards the nearby village but before they even arrived a man was waiting for them a little faraway from the village.
the person that was waiting had covered his face with a special red mask and was vigilant.
When they were still eight meters away from each other the other person showed the sign to stop.
Levi took out a piece of bark which was embedded with a special symbol and said some words, the other person also did something similar.
After confirming each other's identity, the masked man led Sam and Levi to the side of the forest.
Two similarly masked people with plasma guns were waiting there with a hover vehicle.
The hover vehicle was specifically made.
The back side of the vehicle was completely covered, once one entered they couldn't know where they were taken.
It was very similar to a kidnapping vehicle, but more advanced.
It even blocked spiritual sense from spreading outside.
But Sam didn't mind much as the vehicle could only barely block a true warrior's spiritual sense and the Evil sword could still spread it's spiritual sense normally with the help of some specific technique.
More than that he was confident in fleeing if a fight really broke out.
It took awhile for the vehicle to reach the destination, clearly they were being extra careful by going through some extra long route to detect if anyone was following.
Sam almost fell asleep by the time they reached the destination, Levi gave a helpless expression to the other masked man who was clearly feeling annoyed by Sam's lazy and laid out manner.
...
The Secret Base of the rebel's were located inside a naturally formed cave inside a big mountain belonging to a large mountain range.
The place was situated deep inside the forest, Sam wondered how the hover vehicle was able to pass through such a dangerous place without being attacked by wild beasts.
Every one had their own methods so Sam didn't dwell much into it, there were some patrols outside but as they went further in Sam was gobsmacked.
The whole of the big mountain had been emptied from inside and this emptied space further extended into other mountains of the mountain range.
