The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2539 Proposals from Both Sides (1)

Just over two months later...

As the native of Zocarro stood at Examire's entrance, the sights of the city overwhelmed his senses. The smell of exotic foods wafted through the air, mingling with the scent of freshly brewed coffee from nearby cafes.

Amidst the hustle and bustle, this man could feel the vibrations of the city beneath his feet, a constant reminder of the vibrant energy that coursed through Examire. The micro-eyes on his head darted around, absorbing the kaleidoscope of colors and movement that surrounded him.

Curiosity filled the air as passersby stared at the unique being, their gazes a mixture of awe, intrigue, and perhaps a hint of fear. Despite his imposing appearance, this Zocarro native exuded an air of calm confidence as he prepared to venture into the marvel that lay before him.

As he looked at this magnificent city, seeing the headquarters of several local high-ranking forces, he smiled with an interested look on his strange face.

"Examire, eh? I should find my next opportunities here."

He muttered to himself as he walked towards the city center, passing the first buildings on his way.

It wasn't every day that one would see a level 115 Supreme walking calmly through a city!

Even though there were dozens of Supremes living in Examire, these beings rarely left their headquarters. Even when they did, they moved so fast and so inconspicuous that no one outside their groups would notice them.

Five minutes after Tiolos arrived in the city, several local groups were already aware of his movements.

Before he could even reach the central area of the city to search for accommodation, two men suddenly emerged in front of him.

"Senior."

"Senior Tiolos."

Both sides stopped almost side by side and greeted the level 115 expert, making him smile when he noticed their competition. "The group I represent has a proposal for the Senior."

Simultaneously, the pair spoke, instantly captivating the attention of the Supreme as their words sparked curiosity in his eyes.

Upon observing the level 114 Sovereign and the level 113 Sovereign, both adorned with an identical snake mark on their foreheads, Tiolos discerned their affiliation to the same organization.

"Aren't you two part of the same group? Why don't both sides come to an agreement before you talk to me?" Tiolos asked curiously.

Despite his question, the smile on his face said he knew exactly what was going on.

'Do you want to fight to see who gets to hire me? You want to work against each other...'

Sender smiled and said, raising his voice in front of his rival and former ally. "Senior, please accept this gift before we talk more seriously." The newly arrived man saw a silver box flying towards him and didn't hesitate to accept the gesture from Minos' subordinate.

Being in search of resources, he wouldn't be the one to refuse gifts today!

"You are quite generous. Well, come with me. I want to hear what you have to say before I talk to your 'friend'." Tiolos nodded at Sender, while the level 114 alien looked at his level 113 guild mate.

The Jade Chainsaws member glared at Sender, but he hadn't prepared as well as to bring gifts for his first attempt at talking to the level 115 expert.

Sender trailed behind Tiolos, who was determined to secure the most advantageous deal before committing to anything in this new location.

As they settled down in a serene corner of the garden, the man inquired, "So, what is it that you desire, and what are you prepared to offer in return?"

He was planning to travel to Uzira, the other continent of Zocarro, where it was almost impossible to survive the trip to it if you weren't a Supreme.

But even for powerful 12th stage cultivators, traveling to it would be an absolute risk!

As he did not belong to any group, this man had to independently gather the necessary resources to fulfill the demands of his journey!

Sender got right to the point, "To be honest, that other man's group is trying to hire you to kill my leader, Minos Stuart. So what the group I represent wants is for you not to do the job they're trying to hire you for, and for you to deal with the members of the opposing faction.

In short, our deal would be for you to leave Examire as if you had made no deals with anyone and wait for contacts from my people nearby. When our targets move, we'll turn those movements over to you, and you'll lead with them."

Minos could handle these enemies on his own. But it would be difficult for him to do so in the same way as Tiolos.

Another problem was that the enemies had become even more cautious than they had been in recent years, which would make it very difficult for him if he tried to deal with them personally.

Also, until recently, Minos didn't have the same influence on the guild as Jade Chainsaws. While the enemies knew about every mission he and his companions took before they even left the guild, Minos' group didn't have the same kind of leverage until recently.

In the end, Minos didn't want to risk too much by being on the hunting side.

The guild had clear rules about how guild members could interact with each other outside of the Challenge Arenas. The side that caused trouble outside the arenas could pay dearly if they were found out!

The defending side, however, didn't face the same situation. Even if they were discovered, they would only have to concern themselves with justifying their actions, at most.

Given all this, Minos preferred to use someone else rather than take action against the faction himself.

"What level are these targets?"

"Between level 111 and 113," Sender said.

Currently, there were no Generals willing to get involved with Jade Chainsaws in these matters involving Minos. The enemy faction had no choice but to use groups outside the guild if they wanted to continue with their old plans.

"That's easy for me, but since I might have to sit still for months or years, it won't be cheap," Tiolos said, not caring why this group, represented by Sender, didn't act on their own instead of wanting to spend on it.

"That's what we're willing to pay to have you on our side, Senior." Sender smiled as he presented a list of the resources Minos was willing to invest.

The moment he saw those numbers, Tiolos couldn't help but look at Sender differently. 'This matter is more complex than it seems... This Minos Stuart must be some kind of cultivation monster to amass such a vast fortune and be willing to pay me with
