The Rise of the Black Plain



"TITUS!"

A hideous scream came from the throat of one of these gorgons, making everyone in Minos' group shudder at the hatred this creature had for the old fox in their midst.

'Shit!' Minos looked at the hands and feet of the strongest of these creatures and felt the trouble he had gotten himself into by getting involved with Titus.

As the previous Gorgon had warned them, she wasn't the only one after this guy!

Titus looked toward the level 89 Gorgon and felt his fur stand on end as he realized that this was the Gorgon he had been experimenting on for the past few weeks.

'Did she run away? He felt a shiver run down his spine, knowing that these six Gorgons, three level 89 Sages, and three level Demigods between levels 90 and 91 were there to kill him.

"TITUS! I will kill you for everything you've done to me!" This creature shouted as it pointed in his direction.

"Elders, that bastard tortured me for weeks after that bitch handed me over to him! You have no idea what that son of a bitch did to me!" She screamed, demanding justice.

She wanted to kill him herself, but after being rescued by these fellow tribeswomen, she had overheard part of Titus' conversation with Minos' group and, of course, knew that these men and women there might make it harder for her to get her revenge.

"Is that so?" One of the strongest elders there asked, looking at Titus askance, while the snakes on her head also looked at him viciously.

Realizing the trouble he was in, Titus said to Minos. "Young human, if you want me in your group, you'll have to get me out of this place alive. Those damned Gorgons will use everything at their disposal to kill me!"

"Tsk!"

"What the fuck!"

"Damn it, do we have to fight these creatures?" 

The mercenaries in this group, earth beasts and humans, commented almost simultaneously, each a little afraid of having to deal with creatures with such terrible abilities.

Minos' women raised their guard while he clenched his fists, feeling that he couldn't let him down now if he wanted to have the fox by his side.

Minos didn't want to risk the life of one of his men in the experiments he planned to conduct when he reached level 90. But there would be few willing to become his guinea pigs among beings not allied with him.

So Titus' value was greater than anyone could imagine!

He said. "Miss Gorgon, my name is Minos Stuart, and I come from the Black Plain Empire, Central Continent. I am here to discuss important matters with the elder Titus. Is there any way we can resolve this matter peacefully?"

"Peacefully?" The Gorgon looked at Minos and asked hatefully. "Are you crazy? That bastard has been torturing me for weeks! Leave the area, and maybe we won't chase you because you want to do business with a scumbag like him!"

The strongest of these beings looked at Minos attentively, seeing she couldn't underestimate him despite his low level.

"What could someone of your stature want with a decrepit old fox about to die?" She asked curiously.

Minos said sincerely in a light tone, trying to calm the situation. "I am forming a crew whose final destination is the North Sea. The elder Titus has just agreed to join my group, so you no longer have to worry about him. We'll soon be sailing towards our destination!"

As much as Minos knew how to be decisive and when to frighten daring beings like Gorgons, the situation of this group surrounding him and that of the previous Gorgon were quite different.

That Gorgon alone would be unlikely to try anything against them if they showed strength. On the other hand, the group in front of him was unlikely to back down.

But Minos wanted to avoid a confrontation with the Gorgons. They were extremely vengeful creatures, members of a powerful race that could cause his group a lot of trouble if they became enemies.

"North Sea?"

"That can't be true..."

"He wants to escape death here and today to commit suicide?"

These creatures commented to each other as everyone in Minos' group prepared for battle, with Titus hiding in the middle of their group along with Emperor Stuart's women.

"Titus has committed a grave crime. Hand him over now, or be prepared to face the consequences!" The strongest woman there made up her mind, feeling that even if Minos was sincere, Titus deserved to be punished by them!

It wouldn't be enough for him to die in the North Sea or of old age!

His crimes were just too serious!

Seeing he had no way out of this situation, Minos sensed the difficulties this newcomer to his crew would put him in, but he didn't weaken.

Since they didn't want to negotiate, he didn't hesitate to activate his innate ability and immediately manipulated the cultivation levels of his opponents, his own, and some of his allies.

By stealing the cultivation bases of the Gorgons, he raised his cultivation to level 85, enough to affect the strongest in the area, and used his ability to raise the cultivation of the Demigods in his group.

When the leader of the sea race and the leader of the mercenaries felt their cultivation leap to level 92, they immediately moved, knowing that in a battle between powerful creatures, those who acted first had the best chance of success.

Minos also moved as soon as he had manipulated the levels of practically half of the creatures in the area, immediately using Dragon's Gaze against those Gorgons.

With an innate ability as powerful and dangerous as that of these creatures, he couldn't let so many of them near his party!

In his first offensive move, Minos targeted the weakest of the group, giving them no chance to defend themselves.

"If you want to make it difficult, then die!" He shouted as he flew towards his enemies, while his mental attack made all those hideous creatures feel the pressure.

As much as they possessed supernormal abilities and were able to fight those above their level, these creatures could not compare to a dragon! 

With an ability that came from a being of such a high rank, there was no way that Minos' power wouldn't severely affect these creatures!

"Shit!"

"Fight!"

The strongest ones shouted simultaneously and began to move as their eyes flashed, looking for a mere glance from these enemies in their direction.

As they did so, parts of the side vegetation in the area turned to stone, while everyone in Minos' group moved in their bestial or soul-projecting forms.

Looking into the eyes of that creature was the worst thing that could happen to them. But that didn't mean they couldn't be affected by these creatures in other ways!
