Chapter 840 Tough Times
A few days later...
As the war continued on the outskirts of the Black Plain, Emlyn was, as usual, lying down somewhere in the Beast Park.
After the war began, this Nine-Tailed Fox rarely stayed in the Spatial Kingdom due to the need to have influential individuals in Dry City. Consequently, for Minos' sake, she was in this place, even though she initially had an agreement with him to stay in that cultivation sanctuary.
In theory, she should not help him unless it was indispensable. But Emlyn was not a mindless beast.
She knew that as long as the Black Plain's war of independence was not over, she might have to fight at any time. And as such, her time in the Spatial Kingdom would already be disrupted one way or another.
So, she would instead get more involved in the war for now and perhaps shorten the duration of the conflict. Thus, ensuring that her peaceful days in the Spatial Kingdom would return!
In any case, even though she had been out of the Spatial Kingdom for most of the time since the great battle of Dry City, this beast had improved since the 'encounter' with King Brown.
pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴoᴠᴇʟ Minos had continuously provided medicines to nourish her, items that had helped her immensely during this period outside the Spatial Kingdom, a place with a relatively poor spiritual density.
Unlike humans, beasts could ingest medicines without worrying so much about the impurities that could accumulate in their bodies when relying on resources like these to cultivate. And because of this spiritual compatibility above that of humans, Emlyn had increased her level almost as often as she had during her time in the Spatial Kingdom.
So, she had been able to have more than one breakthrough in the almost a year that had passed, having reached level 56 in the last few days!pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ
With that increase in strength, she had regained her confidence, something that had been noticeably weakened after the pressure she had suffered from King Brown at that time.
But with the recent breakthrough, she knew that her combat proficiency had reached the same as that man's, which had reassured her considerably.
Hence, she was spending her time in that green area of Dry City, where there were constantly Feathered Serpents serving her.
...
"Lady Emlyn, I believe we will soon have a great battle around Dry City again." A giant serpent standing there near the area where Kyla's mother was lying said this in a worried tone.
"Oh? Why did you say that?"
"Someone from my tribe is in the Dry City to report thousands of enemies passing through the Flooded Valley to young Minos." The serpent said.
Feathered Serpents could communicate by telepathy. And because of that, after one of them arrived in the city, bringing that information to Minos, within minutes, the information had already been shared among all the beasts of that race in the surroundings.
Therefore, even considering that such a beast had gone directly to talk to Minos without coming to this elder next to Emlyn, such a Spiritual King already knew this information. pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴoᴠᴇʟ
"Considering this, it should not be long until all the enemy troops from outside the Brown Kingdom reach the Black Plain..."
"After that, it will be impossible for us not to have a big battle!"
Hearing this, Emlyn opened her eyes, realizing that things had already reached that point. "Then we'll have some tough weeks ahead of us..."
Emlyn had leveled up, having reached a strength that was considered a regional peak power. But unfortunately, for the moment, only she, Minos, and a few Miller family elders had achieved that feat.
But even if they together could do a great deal of damage on the battlefield, it would be difficult even for them to deal with all the enemy experts and also the many Spiritual Generals.
After all, the Black Plain's biggest problem at the moment was not the absence of influential experts. But instead, the lack of regional mid-level warriors!
Even considering all the Spiritual Generals from families allied with Minos and who were in Dry City, their numbers were barely half the numbers of Brown family vassals fighting in the Black Plain.
However, these House Brown vassals fighting in this territory were not 100% of the people capable of doing so. Besides, there were still many allies of this royal organization who were already fighting against the Black Plain.
And with reinforcements coming from other states, Minos' numbers were becoming almost negligible! ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
That was their big problem now!
Because of this, Emlyn was aware that their situation would be even worse for some time.
At least that would happen as long as some key people failed to advance, more allies began to join the confrontation on the Black Plain, and the opponent's losses increased.
But once all that was added in, the situation could start to change in their favor!
"Let's wait and see what happens..." Emlyn said in a low voice. "Once they have some big losses in the next few clashes, even if they get more of our territories, we can reverse this situation quickly in the next few months!"
...
Meanwhile, a Feathered Serpent had just left the headquarters of the Black Plain Army, where it had informed young Stuart about that information.
After discovering such information, Minos was not surprised by the imminent arrival of enemies from other states. After all, he had expected something like this to happen about a year after that great battle around his city.
But even if this information was primarily bad, he had been pleased to discover that the group coming from the Kingdom of the Waves had taken numerous losses.
Their alliance with the Feathered Serpents had finally shown the first great benefit to the Black Plain!
Not that those beasts were not helping in the war. But the number of them acting on the Black Plain was very small compared to the total number of living beings fighting on this territory. On the other hand, most of them were more involved in the logistical problems and not in the fighting.
Therefore, the effects of those beasts had not been that significant until then.
But upon learning about this recent information, Minos had discovered that the benefits of being with those beasts already generated significant gains for him.
So, even with a huge problem looming over him, young Stuart was quiet, dealing with this and other matters in his office.
"Ernest, you have reached level 53 and will now be able to contribute more to the Black Plain." Minos said as he looked at the soldier in front of him, pleased that this person had met his expectations. "With that, I have a special mission for you."
"Oh? Young master. I'll do my best!" Ernest said confidently, grateful to Minos for helping him get to that level so quickly.
"It's good to know that you are confident..."
"But I will not send you to the battlefield," Minos said as his eyes narrowed. "You will form a group with some high-level Sergeants, at least two Elite Squad members, and go to the peaceful region of the Brown Kingdom."
"I want your group to act directly against each of the noble families acting against the Black Plain."
"Your goal is to assassinate targets between levels 50 and 55..." He said as he placed a small book on his desk, indicating Ernest to pick it up.
Upon seeing that black-covered book, Ernest immediately picked it up. Soon, he began to see that it was basically composed of pages with information about his targets.
There were the person's name, description, a reliable portrait, unique characteristics, etc. In general, information that Minos' allies had collected, those things that indicated the importance of these people to the enemy families of the Black Plain.
Such individuals targeted by Minos were those who either kept their families running almost smoothly during these atypical times. Also, people who, if they died, would bring disaster to those organizations.
As in the example of the most powerful elders who were not in the war, individuals with excellent management skills, economic influence, etc.
Minos' goal with this was simple. He wanted to force the vassals of the Brown Kingdom to return to their territories to resolve their internal crises!
"In addition to these assassination missions, your group will also kidnap the children, wives, of the enemy experts."
"Try to avoid seriously injuring them..." Minos said this without weight on his conscience.
