The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2536 Plans

In just a moment, half a year has gone by since Minos assumed control of the Law Enforcement Hall!

During this time, Otis has reached level 108, becoming the first of the group's level 107 Sovereigns to advance since their return to the guild over two years ago.

The other three Sovereigns, who were at level 107 and went to the Spiritual World with Minos and Ruth, were also close to advancing. However, only Otis fully used his opportunities, not only leveling up but also getting promoted to Intermediate Officer.

Apart from Minos and Otis, all other members of their faction's guild maintained their previous hierarchical positions.

However, they all had enough merit points to challenge the next level when the opportunity arose.

The past few months had been productive for the group, as Minos and his fellow internal members had completed several external missions, earning more merit points and improving their positions.

The internal pressures continued, but with Minos and his family's growing power within the Law Enforcement Hall, they could counterbalance the opposing actions during this time.

Meanwhile, the faction's strongest group, which included the giants and three other high-ranking Sovereigns, also improved in strength, with one giant advancing to level 113 and Sender advancing to level 114.

Minos had spent half of his merit points and much of the enemy resources he had collected so far on his journey.

But it had paid off, and he was getting close to when he could confidently leave Zocarro again!

...

In the cave of the Minos faction, he was with his family and had just finished a training session with his children.

Abby, Ruth, and Gloria were there when he used a towel to dry his face and threw an important topic into the air.

"I've heard some rumors about the conflict with Firestone Mines. From the looks of it, the war I foresaw will not heat as quickly as we thought. After the quick reaction of the guild Elders following the revelation of the culprit, the enemies are reconsidering their plans."

For the past three months, the elders of the council had had the evidence they needed to be certain that Minos' warnings were real and not just unreasonable concerns.

The guild's Elders had moved weeks ago, and since then, the Firestone Mines situation had only involved the Sovereigns in a war of movement with no major battles.

The guild had fortified its territories and outposts, raised the alert, and restricted the movement of powerful members and the entry of non-aligned beings into the areas under its control. Few battles had taken place, but a major confrontation was slowly heating, with various powers siding with Armhands or Firestone Mines.

Minos didn't know all of this, nor the motivations of the enemies, but from the few detailed comments he'd heard over the months, some Firestone Mines elders had advanced, and that was the main reason for the opponents' actions.

"I intend to take advantage of this situation to leave the guild and go to the seraphim world. I don't think the war will break out soon, so it will be safe for me to leave you here.

But before I leave, I need to make sure the Jade Chainsaws situation is resolved and I have someone to replace me in the Law Enforcement Hall.

Abby, that person is you." Minos said as he looked at his wife, who else had the potential to take over as the hall's supervisor, given her divine power.

"I want you to take your promotion exam as soon as possible. I'll help you deal with the enemies on your first outside missions, and when you advance to the position of Intermediate Officer, it will be time for me to move on." Abby didn't question her husband's plan, but Kendrick couldn't help but question his father. "What about us? How much longer are we going to act as outsiders?"

"As soon as Abby becomes the supervisor of the Law Enforcement Hall, you can all be promoted to Junior Officers. Until then, it's best not to rush. The enemy probably won't try everything he tried in the past years from now on, but if too many of you advance now, we could be in trouble." Minos looked earnestly at his eldest son.

They had dealt with several situations involving Jade Chainsaws in recent months and had avoided several confrontations because of Maximilian's recommendations.

But it would still take a decisive confrontation between Minos and the strongest faction influenced by that faction for Jembei's former allies to change their positions.

If Minos' faction wasn't careful, they would still face hard problems even after their influence within the guild was strengthened.

As much as Minos could see the moment of his next departure from Zocarro, that didn't mean it would happen overnight. For someone his age, a year passed in the blink of an eye, so he looked at the next decade as a whole while analyzing his current plans.

Minos chatted with his family after training with his children. He rested for a while before saying goodbye to them. Then, he headed to the inner area of the guild, where he had an appointment with Segiel today.

In the months since her promotion to the rank of General, the two of them had become good friends, and they often met to discuss internal and secret guild matters, as well as their cultivation journeys.

Even though they weren't members of the same faction, they had helped each other as if they were more than just allies within the guild.

...

While Minos was on his way to meet Segiel, the leader of the Jade Chainsaws was currently on the surface of Examire, working on his latest plans.

While a large black cloak covered his body, he met another individual in the same situation in a dark alleyway of this great alien city.

"Well? Can your group help me?" The level 112 alien behind Minos' enemies in the guild asked the contact who had agreed to meet him there today.

"More or less. We can act quickly, but on my way here, I came in contact with some interesting information."

"I don't want to know. I want you to take care of Minos as soon as possible!" This Armhands member insisted, his concern visible in his dark eyes.

"Relax, hehe. This information I heard might actually help you. There's a certain newly promoted Supreme who are traveling in search of resources and challengers. I don't know his exact motives, but the story I heard is real and confirmed.

He recently dealt with some enemies of a certain group from Mount Ashcloud for a few tens of millions of Qilnats. After passing through the area, he told the local leaders he would spend some time in seclusion and then come to Examire!

If you're willing to wait, we can try to approach him before we act directly!"
