Sam's Life Part 2

The base where Sam was lived was near to many military bases thus many of the survivors gathered there were strong soldiers in the first place. And when the news of the stone in the beast heads turned out to be true then many of the soldiers in the base went outside the wall to kill all the beast present in the outskirts of the city where their base was located.

This enthusiasm of beast killing continued for few days and within these few days, all the beasts present in the whole city was cleared which couldn't be cleared in last three years while this not without sacrifices as one out of ten people either died or were seriously injured. but Even the officials of the city were surprised by the speed beast were cleared as the tack of clearing beast was released many times but not even beast near the base was cleared but this time if one wants to any beast in the city they might not be able to find one.

While all the beast of the city were cleared but not even 50 core stone were recovered but this amount can already be considered a lot given the low number of 1st stage beasts and every core stones were found in insects while there were rats and squirrels type of beast were present in the city but they didn't yield any stone as most of them were unranked one.

But this event allowed the base to expand while there were many beasts outside the city and when the beasts inside the city will be cleared then those in the surrounding areas will definitely come to the city but those people who didn't get any stone and those who got stones but it didn't produce any pet will definitely clear those beasts which created the change for the base to expand.

As for as Sam remembered this enthusiasm of peoples continued for nearly a year unlit everyone in the base got their own pet beasts, even his both uncle and aunt got their own pet beast as safety was the first priory in this world. His uncle got a pet which was similar to a bee while his aunt pet has more similarity to butterflies. And during this time it was also found that 'one must be at least 18 to be able to use core stones and able to obtain a pet as many of the teenagers tried to use core stones but they could nighter absorb the energy when they break the stone nor they could obtain a pet.

And during this time finally, peoples of the base started to get into contact of 2nd stage beasts when they started to venture deep outside the city, while there was only one or two incident of 2nd stage beast appearance but every encounter left many hunters who went in wild either dead or seriously injured.

But this incident of the appearance of 2nd stage beast also cleared one of the humanity doubt that there is also much stronger beasts in this world and soon humans tried to find any means to get stronger to overcome the attacks of the beasts.

In all of the events and surprises soon another year passed. While for most of the humans this year was filled with tragedies as the number of 2nd stage beast in the wild started to increase and even the mature 1st stage pet couldn't fight against them and not a single one of those beasts could be killed by now but there were also rumours that the hunters from the central city as hunted down these stronger beasts but there was no concrete proof.

For Sam this year was rather more pleasant for him than the past few years as his aunt gave birth to a cute little girl and as both, his uncle and aunt work as a doctor they have quite a few credits saved and from them they had recently purchased a three-room house near the inner area of the base.

But this happy time of Sam and his family didn't last long and it's just been few days past the new year a sudden and strong earthquake hit the all the place where humans had made bases thus it can be concluded that the whole place which could be said as earth as a whole had an earthquake. while this earthquake was definitely strong but it didn't harm the buildings in the base as they were made on the base of previous cities and all of them were earthquake resistant.

While all the humans were unknown about the cause and implication of this earthquake but Sam had some feeling about what was happening because as soon as the earthquake hit he had a strange feeling of refreshment as he had come home, the place where should be present all the time. And this feeling was enough to remind him that earth has now completely merged to the place from his dream but he also had a fear about those beasts he saw in the dreams.

As if like this world didn't want him to be worried a wonderful surprised arrived in next few days all the pet beast of humans suddenly progressed a rank because when earth fused with giant planet great amount of mana rushed inside the earth atmosphere and as a response to the increased strength of beast their owner strength also increased by a fold.

If it was only that it would have been great but the effect of mana was not only limited to the pet beast but also in the wild ones, while it was not as great as pet beasts but many of the wild beasts which were on the 1st stage suddenly got promoted to 2nd stage beasts. But most important was that the rank of some beast also increased as some of the black iron beasts evolved into the copper rank beasts.

And the portals which were in inactive state suddenly became active as many of the beasts crossed that portal. While those beasts were mostly 3rd or 4th stage and highest of silver rank. This increased number of high stage beasts caused them to become aggressive and they become more territorial and soon 2nd stage beast which fled from their territories with some 1st stage beast and vast numbers of the unranked beast started to migrate towards human territories which included the base where Sam was living as it was one of the border bases.

And within a week many of the beasts started to gather around the human bases and soon hunter started to notice increased numbers of beast. All of the border towns of the humans were put on the high alert by the base officials.

Soon in the next two days the numbers of beasts with were in hundreds at first increased to thousands. When the numbers surpassed the limit then unranked beast attacked at the human bases as fear of higher stage beast overpowered the fear of human which were constantly hunting them.

Thus this marked first beast tide in the small life of Sam. When the unranked beasts attacking the human bases then at first it was not much of a problem as the pet beast of human were enough to kill them. But when the numbers of unranked beasts increased and some first ranked beast appeared it caused a major problem as although pet beast had stronger stage power, but they didn't have any fighting experience which caused injuries among themselves and even some humans were killed in the chaos.

This battle among humans and beasts continued for two days .and the walls where the fight was currently happening was in complete chaos.

When all of this was happening then Sam's uncle was also deployed near the wall and in this chaos somehow a stage two "Ice Slug" sneaked inside the wall and that place happened to be near the place where Sam's uncle was stationed.

And when Sam's uncle was working he had his venom bee in the unsummoned state thus the appearance of slug caught him in surprise by the time he summoned his bee, that slug had already thrown an ice spike which happens to pierce his uncle's waist. This commotion caught the eyes of many the hunters on the wall soon that "Ice Slug" was killed and sam"s uncle was rushed to the makeshift hospital but he ended up being paralyzed below his waist ending his career as a doctor.

While humans won that battle with beasts but at a very heavy cost, many of the hunters died. This incident pointed out one of the most problems of the humans thus soon schools were made to teach specifically beast training and fighting with the beast.

After this incident, Sam's life took unexpected turn now the family of four he was living in an economic crisis. While his uncle could work in his current state but no one wants baggage they had to carry thus he was forced to leave his job. Under this situation, Sam who mostly lived his life in comfort now has to do odd jobs to continues this family on his uncle's place.
