After overpowering and ordering those Saints, Lothur quickly saw them off in a southerly direction.
Watching them move, Lothur sighed, imagining that his men in Linn Province would soon be much stronger.
As for why he hadn't created new life forms to take the Soul Bones he had gathered here to Peters City instead of sending these people, that was because it wasn't easy to create life.
Lothur didn't want to send the two cats he was still observing. On the other hand, to create life, he needed something for the foundation of these beings. He needs to take life from other living beings along with part of their elemental affinities to create new possibilities.
In short, he couldn't create life from nothing, even with his ability. Something would always need to be provided, like an initial push necessary for a cyclical movement to begin.
Without stealing what he had stolen from three Sages of the Ancestral Folk earlier, Lothur wouldn't have been able to create life.
However, if he had such a thing at his disposal, he could create all kinds of existence within his spiritual and creative abilities. If he wanted to make a cat or a dog, a tree or a bacterium, in short, he could create basically anything.
But Lothur had chosen not to target people who had nothing to do with him just so he could produce more artificial beings.
As useful as these beings could be to him, Lothur preferred to have only a few of them for the time being while he better understood the behavior of those two cats.
So, he had opted to simply dominate the minds of a few humans.
With that done, he returned to his group, which would rest for the next few hours nearby to wait for the time to return to their hunt.
Ever since they had started this journey, the group had had specific moments when they would sit still, usually meditating or training.
They couldn't move at all times, as this could cause disturbances that would eventually attract the attention of the Sages behind him. On the other hand, Lothur's bloodline ability only worked once every 24 hours.
Since it didn't make sense for them to stay too close to their targets until he could absorb them, the group spent most of their time standing around as they would for the next few hours.
But they already had their next target in mind, and in another 16 hours, it would be time for them to move again!
...
Ten hours later...
After finishing training some of his techniques, Lothur looked at his status, seeing his physical values had changed subtly.
[Name: Lothur Ritter]
[Physique: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger]
[Bloodline: Life Devourer]
[Soul Cultivation: level 23]
[Body Cultivation: level 22]
[STR: 4,485] [CON: 7,380] [DEX: 4,698] [AGI: 4,750]
[INT: 1,599] [PER: 6,280] [WIL: 3,000] [SOU: 14,678]
[EVF: 25]
For the current him, any noticeable improvement was tough to achieve with ordinary training. Even with values that differed greatly from each other, he would have had to train for many months to balance them out, a long time for him.
But even so, Lothur always trained when he could because it was a part of his life that he had become accustomed to doing, and he did it whenever he could.
But he didn't just train every day. Alongside his women on this journey, there hadn't been a single night since this trip had begun that they hadn't enjoyed themselves in their favorite way...
Ignoring his status and looking over to where two of his women were chatting amid their rest, Lothur smiled, imagining that he could have fun with them for the next few hours.
Getting up and walking over to them by a fire, Lothur ignored the starry sky that night, thinking of pitching their tent and spending some quality time with Elke and Rebecca.
However, just as Lothur was about to invite them, suddenly, the two small cats nearby watching the area sounded a warning signal.
"Someone is approaching our location." Blood said for everyone in the group to hear.
Annaliese and Viktoria immediately stopped meditating when they heard that, while Cykad opened his eyes, waking up without difficulty.
Beasts meditated in their sleep since they couldn't use cultivation techniques. But the sleep of these creatures was extremely light, and any disturbance in their surroundings would attract their attention.
Awakening to the high-pitched voice of that shady creature created by Lothur, he immediately heightened his senses to catch a glimpse of his surroundings and understand the problem.
As Lothur's group and his women began to raise their spirits, the Tyrannosaurus Rex suddenly improved his expression and said. "Everyone, this is one of my men. Someone of my race is coming here. He's not an enemy."
"Oh?"
Everyone's spirits immediately dropped as Lothur's kittens returned closer to their creator.
As expected, a few seconds later, the group saw a dinosaur of the same race as Cykad arrive, a level 20 creature half the size of the Tyrannosaurus Rex next to Lothur.
"Boss!" The creature shouted as soon as he saw Cykad. "I bring important news!"
"What news? Why didn't you call me through the communication crystal?" Cykad asked as the people in his party watched the level 20 creature intently.
He answered without beating around the bush. "My crystal was destroyed. While looking for spectres, I came across a group of these creatures. Just as I was about to leave the area and send the message to the boss, one of them noticed me and tried to possess me.
Luckily, I could escape, but I lost my communication item in the process."
"Spectres? Are they around?" Lothur asked.
"Yes. A few hours northwest of here, flying at my maximum speed. There's a group of seven 4th-stage spectres where I left from." The beast replied, looking at Lothur, aware that this creature was a close friend and ally of his leader.
"That's good."
"If they haven't left yet, we'll be able to deal with the first spectres of this journey," Annaliese commented, while the others felt they needed to get to this group as soon as possible.
"Lead the way. I want to see those disgusting creatures." Cykad ordered, ready to face some of the worst enemies beasts like him could face.
And it didn't take long for the weaker dinosaur to lead Lothur's group to the place he had fled from.
Carried by Cykad, even though he was leading the way to the group, he would see the place he had fled from again just over 30 minutes after contacting his superior.
Having traveled at the speed of a Sage for the first time in his life, the beast would soon fall ill as he approached where those beings had been hours before.
As he vomited and the group scanned the area in search of their targets, Smoke said. "My creator, I can smell these creatures coming from the south, 100 meters from where we are. There are 10 of them, a little more than the beast told you."
