"However, now bringing her here will not be so difficult, and she will be able to help you with Mirya's treatment."

Minos then turned to Eduard and said. "I'll give you the mission to solve this."

"I want you to go to Allamanda in the Kingdom of the Waves and look for a woman named Regina Garza. She is already at level 57, so it will be easy for you to find her."

"Level 57?" Dillian asked dubiously. "Young master, there is no need to bring in a high-level grade-2 poison master. A lower rank is enough."

"No, attracting this woman to my side will be for the best. With her here, we will be able to improve the physical quality of the Elite Squad soldiers much faster. And with that, their cultivation speed would also increase."

"This will also be positive for me. As you three know, leveling up to the 6th stage of cultivation is a much more rigorous process than the previous ones." Minos said this while they had thoughtful expressions on their face.

Challenges and opportunities would accompany each cultivation stage change. And the better the conditions for the cultivator to attempt such advances, the better the rewards.

An example, there were bottlenecks. Such things were so named because, at these points, cultivators who tried to make it through would face challenges beyond what their bodies could generally handle.

Consequently, there would be a need for outside help for such people to achieve such advances!

However, even if someone didn't have to overcome a bottleneck to reach the 6th stage, like Minos, it doesn't mean they wouldn't have difficulties or rewards afterward. On the contrary, if that cultivator met the requirements to step up easily, it could result in better benefits!

And the most common one would be an increase in cultivation speed!

That would be because instead of spiritual cleansing taking place primarily in that cultivator's body, it would be soul-focused. And such purification in the soul, while not increasing people's latent talent, could still slightly improve the quality of that component of living beings.

The most direct consequence of this was a slight increase in compression, something directly related to cultivation speed and techniques mastery!

Precisely for that reason, Minos wanted to take this opportunity to bring that poison master to the Dry City. Thus, he could receive poison treatment with that woman before his advancement, and this could bring him significant benefits.

Anyway, previously he was still unwilling to go after Regina Garza, as that would mean he would have to go without at least one of his Spiritual Kings for several weeks. However, with the need for such a professional for Mirya's treatment, such a thing would be worth it.

Minos blamed himself for Viola's mother's situation and, allied with the advantages this action could bring to the Dry City, he couldn't help but change his thoughts regarding this attempt.

"I see..." Dillian muttered in a low voice, understanding this point. "Indeed, with a poison master of that level in our city, for those of us who are already in the 6th stage or almost there, it will be very beneficial!"

Upon hearing this, Elena and Eduard also agreed with that statement, nodding their heads and smiling in anticipation of such a thing.

For them, cultivators with Black talents, people who had their first cultivation bottleneck when they reached level 50, knew perfectly well the pain they had to go through to achieve this feat!

They understood that even if they had more than 50% of reaching this level previously, the smallest of mistakes on their part could have resulted in their deaths or a failure to advance!

If such a thing happened, well, their situation would not be pleasant, and they would have to face something similar to what King Walker faced... 

Also, if such a thing was already difficult for them with Black talent, imagine how much harder it would be for those with Blue talent?

With that, the two of them couldn't help but look forward to doing poison treatments with such a person so that their future advances would be smoother.

On the other hand, as members of Minos' army, they also wanted those thousands of soldiers with the Blue talent to reach the 6th stage of cultivation. So, the possibility of having a top poison master in this region was fascinating for these two people, who almost forgot about Mirya's problem after hearing it...

Minos then looked at Eduard and said. "Well then!"

"Eduard, I'm going to ask Ruth to lend you her hired beast. That eagle is already in the 5th stage and will be able to take you to and from Allamanda in less than six weeks."

"In an hour, go to the mansion, and Mia will give you the medium-grade crystals you need to convince that woman to come here. After that, Ruth's eagle will be waiting for you at the north exit of the wall."

"OK, Mr. Minos!" He said, making a gesture typical of this region and then leaving that place to prepare for this trip.

Minos then looked at Elena and smiled. "As for you, Elena, since you've already reached level 50, if you want to visit your family, this is the best time."

"You probably won't lose much if you leave now and return in about two months. In that time, the poison master will probably already be around..."

"Oh? Are you that confident she will come?" Elena asked.

She was excited about that possibility, but that didn't change the fact that the other side might still refuse their offer.

After all, such a person could be considered one of the strongest in terms of cultivation in this region. And even if that woman wasn't a warrior, she was still a level 57 Spiritual King, someone with vast experience, contacts, etc.

Consequently, if she didn't want something, it would be difficult for even Minos to convince her otherwise!

"Of course, that woman is by far the most ambitious of all the people I've come into contact with since I started my cultivation journey. So, I'm sure she will come after finding out that she can earn a lot of medium-grade crystals around here."

As much as such poison masters gained many medium-grade crystals due to their valuable skills, that didn't mean such professionals wouldn't want more. After all, the demand could be good, and they could earn a lot of crystals, but that wasn't something constant to the point where these professionals had patients every day.

And like any intelligent person, these professionals would not miss the opportunity to maximize their profits by increasing the number of treatments performed annually.

For this reason, Minos was so confident that Regina would come!

As for after that, he had even more irresistible offers for that woman...

Anyway, after hearing young Stuart's confident response, Elena said nothing more about it. Instead, she just said goodbye to Minos and Dillian. She then left that hospital, heading to her residence in the Dry City.

She had the same purpose as Eduard. Get ready for her trip!

But unlike that man, this young blonde would need to take a lot more attention than him. That's because, with Stone Island's chaotic situation, she couldn't just travel there anyway.

'I can't wait to see how Elen is doing... She must have reached level 50 by now...' Elena thought to herself as she followed her path.

...

Meanwhile, Minos and Dillian were still in that room at the General Hospital, where some doctors were currently treating Mirya.

Dillian had already completed his first session with this woman and would need some time to rest. So, until he finished recovering, he had left some of his subordinates to treat that woman.

Her life was not at risk, but this ongoing treatment could maximize her recovery speed. And considering the fact that each Spiritual King was critical to the Dry City, Dillian couldn't take this matter lightly.

Even if his attitude only resulted in a single day's improvement, it would be worth it in this man's opinion!

Finally, while Dillian was resting and Minos was watching Mirya's situation, a young woman came through the door of that room.

"Mom..."
