The Rise of the Black Plain

2025 Time to Take Advantage

After the previous battle, the enemy headquarters had lost control of the many special formations around the North Sea. Now, those circles around the entire region were activated to the maximum.

From what Minos' group had discovered so far, it would be impossible to enter or leave the North Sea in the short term, which meant that they were trapped in this area!

Knowing that enemy reinforcements would definitely come to this world to deal with them, the group was already at work trying to find a way to control the enemy defenses around the North Sea. Amidst this, they had also discovered the situation of the many alien beings in the cryogenic chambers of this facility and were attempting to break into those urns.

If they could force those individuals to work for them and control the special phenomena in that region, they could more easily return home and warn the rest of the world about the problems approaching the Spiritual World.

Unfortunately for them, these were high-level devices that were virtually indestructible. The cryogenic chambers were programmed not to open until the activation time set when they were closed had elapsed.

Iktun and his group had programmed this to happen in about 30 years, about the same period their group of reinforcements would arrive in the Spiritual World.

Getting these people out of their cryo-chambers before then would be almost impossible!

But the group would soon discover that this would not be the method for them to leave this innermost area of the North Sea!

On the final level of the alien installation on the last remaining island in the area...

Minos, Ruth, and some of the men he had brought from the Spatial Kingdom were now in the area where the hundreds of alien cryogenic units were located.

After everyone in the group had tried to open these chambers with their skills, it was left to Minos to try to use the black hole to deal with them.

Nothing the enemies had left behind was of any use against these special units. At the same time, the group knew there was no way they could wait for these units to open up on their own.

By the time they did, the enemy reinforcements would probably already be in this world!

Either they would break into those units and get access to aliens capable of controlling the situation in the North Sea, or they would have to handle it themselves!

Then, while the seven people there with Minos looked at him tensely, he combined two of his techniques and formed a rotating, lightless sphere in front of him.

Attempting to do the same thing he had done to the first enemy robot he had gotten his hands on, Minos tried to devour the outermost parts of this structure with his black hole.

While controlling his black hole to do so, he noticed a problem.

"Hmm?" His eyes narrowed as his eyebrows knitted together.

"What is it, Minos?" Ruth asked, looking at the serious expression her husband had just made.

After a moment of silence, Minos said. "This device is really special... I can't open it like this. If I try to 'eat' the sides of this urn, my black hole will swallow the whole urn".

As he spoke, he tested what he had just realized and felt what he had said.

He said. "Strangely enough, the metal alloy in this urn can't have just a part of it swallowed. Either all of it is consumed, or none of it is consumed."

"What? That's very strange!" One of the experts Minos had brought from the Spatial Kingdom said, feeling this didn't make sense.

"Yes, but that's the way it is," Minos said. "This alloy can't withstand the power of the black hole, but either I obliterate it, or I do nothing. Any attempt to degrade just one piece of it will cause the whole unit to enter the singularity of my black hole."

"If that's the case, it will be impossible for us to get any of these aliens out of their urns. So what do we do?" Ruth said in a pessimistic tone.

Everyone was silent momentarily until an array master raised his voice. "I think we can only try to understand a little of the enemy's technology. If we can at least learn to manipulate these energy circles, we might be able to get out of here before the enemy reinforcements reach us."

That was a logical thought. Unfortunately, the professionals Minos had left in the Spatial Kingdom were only grade-3 individuals since he didn't need more skilled professionals to teach the children in their families.

As much as these professionals were better qualified than him and the rest of the crew to understand enemy technologies, it wouldn't be enough for his group to master high-level things that were compatible with mid- and high-level Demigods!

Minos clenched his fists and said. "I have an alternative, but I can't guarantee that it will work."

"What do you have in mind?" Grant, standing next to Ruth, asked with interest.

"I can use my black hole to devour all these cryogenic chambers and then use it to create a Black Hole Bomb." He looked around and did some quick calculations. "Considering the enemy's strength and the level of these urns, I think I'll be able to get a slightly stronger bomb than the one I used recently."

"Your idea is to detonate this bomb in a border area of the North Sea to clear the way for our group?" Ruth understood Minos' idea.

"Yes. Several of the energy circles over this island disappeared after the Black Hole Bomb I detonated. Maybe we can do the same on our way back to the mainland." He said as he looked into his wife's beautiful eyes.

The people there pondered for a moment, feeling that Minos' alternative was better than nothing.

Besides, Minos' strategy wouldn't stop their other plans. Since they couldn't reach the people in the cryogenic urns, they might as well kill them to avoid further problems. Meanwhile, part of the group could try to understand the alien technologies while the rest prepared to test Minos' plan.

"So when are we going to try this?" Someone asked.

There were only members of Minos' family, government, or friends there. So he told them. "We will hold our position on this island and try to understand as much of the enemy's technology as possible until I reach level 88.

Surely, there are people outside the North Sea who have noticed the signs of the previous battle. I'm afraid that some powerful experts are interested in the North Sea and will join us as soon as we open the way for them.

So, let's make sure that the empire secures as much of the enemy's technology as possible before we allow others access to it."

Minos was no fool. Siding with the other powers of the world against the alien threat did not mean that he would give up power and the chance to understand enemy technologies first.

He had a genuine interest in protecting the Spiritual World. But he also had priorities to protect his state and his friends before helping others.

He wanted to stay in this place as long as possible to ensure the best for his people!
