The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2494 Changing Threat

Meanwhile, in another part of town, outside the Armhands' headquarters.

Kendrick had just finished his duties as a blacksmith.

Like his father, Kendrick had been directed to a field where he had the aptitude to become a skilled professional.

The Armhands required its members to have at least two specialties, the warrior's and a secondary art. The guild believed that only by cultivating geniuses who could do more than just fight could they achieve their goal of creating Supremes capable of reaching the Upper Realm.

The path of cultivation was arduous the higher one went. Without extraordinary methods, it was impossible to approach the perfection needed to enter the upper realm.

Because of his spatial abilities, but also because of the dragon powers he gained from the artifact he absorbed at Ganaway Sanctuary, Kendrick had a strong affinity for forging. Ever since he joined the guild, he had been learning to forge daily, combining it with his mandatory and optional missions.

As for training and cultivation, he had barely spent a day on it since he joined the guild.

As Minos himself advised the group, none of the eight newcomers to the guild were trying to become stronger at the moment, but rather to gain merit and get closer to a higher position in the guild.

So when he finished his forging studies today, he made his way to the Law Enforcement Hall, meeting Grisdi halfway.

"There's an interesting optional mission in the Mission Hall this afternoon. You should check it out. It sounds interesting." The woman said as she walked beside him.

"What is it?" He asked.

"It's a trap, but it's a trap that can earn you a lot of merit points if you handle it well." She explained the crucial part.

"It basically requires you to help a junior officer test his weapons. You need to be a blacksmith to take part in this mission, and you also need to have a cultivation level of at least 105."

"What's the trap?" He asked, looking at the beautiful woman next to him, with whom he did not get along as well as before her betrayal, but not as badly as after her attitude in The Blossom World.

Grisdi explained. "This blacksmith who created this mission is a member of the Jade Chainsaws."

The Jade Chainsaws is the name of the faction formerly led by Jembei!

"Oh? Do you think they created this mission to lure me?" Kendrick narrowed his eyes.

"The mission only appeared in the external part of the city. How many outside members who are blacksmiths and have level 105 cultivation in the outer city?" She smiled at him.

"I see. How many merit points are we talking about?"

"20,000 points for the mission. But if he tries to kill you, as I think he will, you could challenge him to death and take a good portion of his merit points. That would be enough to pay for your promotions until you become a junior officer!"

"Hmm, that's interesting. I'll stop by the Mission Hall later." Kendrick smiled with interest. At first, he and his companions were only watched by the members of the Jade Chainsaws. But since Jembei's death, and especially after Vico, Abby and Kendrick had been promoted, strange things had happened.

They were no longer just being watched, and their enemies were actively trying to take action against the guild's eight newcomers!

But Kendrick hadn't just inherited his womanizing side from his father!

'If they want blood, so be it. I'll help them taste blood when they die!' Kendrick clenched his fists before spotting the Law Enforcement Hall building on the outside of the guild.

However, before entering this facility, he and Grisdi encountered one of the judges of this post, who seemed to be leaving after his daily shift.

"Soldier Kendrick Stuart..." The alien said as he stopped in front of the young man, who was a mixture of Abby and Minos. "I've heard a lot about your actions... Just like your father, you exaggerate your punishments. Be careful, it's not good to grow up in the hall like that. Your superiors don't like it."

Kendrick ignored Grisdi's question and looked deeply at the level 107 elder in front of him. "If my decisions aren't fair, eventually the Chief Commander will punish me. Until then, I will continue to enforce the guild's rules.

As for those who want to cause trouble, they will receive the maximum punishment under my watch."

Seeing the ugly expression on the girl next to Kendrick, and the two of them walking towards him without making any gestures of greeting, this judge made a sound of displeasure.

'Damn humans! They're all insolent vermin!' He walked away without saying anything, in a position he hated. When he saw the looks on the faces of the surrounding Law Enforcers, men he usually oppressed and pressured, now looking at him and seeing he only stood up to the weakest, he couldn't help but hate Kendrick a few degrees more.

'On the day your father dies, I'll see if you can keep all that cheek in front of me, brat!'

...

Meanwhile, in the best restaurant in the guild's outdoor area, Vico found himself face to face with one of the humans from Maximillian's group.

Although his group and Maximillian's didn't speak to each other, Vico didn't see any problem in meeting one of his old acquaintances to talk about the Spiritual World and the past.

Maybe there was no room for trusting the future, but the past had already been decided, and talking about it wouldn't change it.

In the weeks since he had joined the guild, Vico had met with Maximilian's three human companions and talked about the Spiritual World as well as the men's journey on Zocarro.

Since each of them was a busy man with many responsibilities, it could take weeks to talk about everything they had to talk about from the past, even with frequent meetings.

But after they had finished discussing another of their experiences prior to their reunion in Armhands, Maximilian's ally brought up a current topic.

"I heard about Jembei's death... You must be careful. This faction is difficult to deal with. I'm afraid that unless you improve your average power by one or two levels, you won't be free of problems that could threaten your existence." Said the level 107 individual.

Maximillian paid the bill for his food and got up to leave. "Hmm, we'll work on that. Just watch while we show you the right way to grow up in this place."
