The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2769 Time to get the Drops of Hell!

The next few days in Hilltop City were uneventful. Minos hadn't anticipated such a peaceful and quick journey in the city, but everything went well for him.

After the surprise meeting with Mylecent and Ysolt, they secured a place as a low-level force on the city council. With their initial rights, they could already recruit those they wanted, as well as make trades and deals at more advantageous rates than they would have been able to without the help of those women.

The two left the city long before Minos and his group, but less than two months after leaving the Armhands outpost in Uzira, he and his wives returned with a large group of Recruits to the guild.

Only the two Supremes appointed by Minos to represent the guild in the area remained in Hilltop City, while they all quickly made their way to the guild outpost.

And the journey back was even smoother than the journey to Hilltop City. With such a large group on their side, even the bounty hunters in that mountainous area avoided their group. After a few days of travel avoiding the territories of powerful creatures, Minos presented his local outpost to the 34 Recruits he had brought back from this trip.

Tiolos and those who had stayed behind at the guild post were naturally surprised that Minos had returned so quickly. They had previously imagined that it might take a few months or even years for this group to return, but it all seemed to have happened very quickly.

No one was surprised, however. Minos was already very strong and had powerful skills and tools with him.

As soon as he returned to his post, Minos took a few days off to deal with introducing the newcomers to the older customs of the guild. But he soon began his seclusion with his three wives, leaving Tiolos and one of the guild's strongest generals in charge of the area in the meantime.

Over the next few years, he intended to cultivate as much as he could through the temporal distortion of Temporal Sands!

...

Time passed and the guild's outpost in Uzira grew in size with the annual moves that Minos had promised the two Supremes staying in Hilltop City.

Once a year, guild members stationed at the secret outpost moved to that city and maintained the trade necessary to continue strengthening it, including, of course, the addition of new Recruits. freёwebnovel.com

Thus, the number of less than 20 Armhands members in Uzira has risen to over 90 in the years that have passed since then. In the almost 10 years since then, several Recruits have advanced in level or rank, with two of them already having become Elite Soldiers. But none of them had achieved the Officer status needed to carry out missions outside the secret post.

Even stuck on the post for a decade, none of the outside members added to the guild in those years were unhappy. The decade they spent was the quietest of their lives, even though it was also the one with the most opportunities for them.

As for the old members of the group, obviously no one had become stronger in just 10 years. All of them would have needed centuries and centuries of cultivation to make such substantial improvements, even with all the riches that Minos made available to the group.

On the eve of the 10-year anniversary since the agreement with the leader of Hilltop City, Minos finally awoke from his meditation, the last of his meditating group to finish.

Abby, Gloria and Ruth were already waiting for him while he sorted out guild business at the secret outpost, when he left his place of seclusion, feeling 150 years stronger than 10 years ago.

"Sigh... I still need a lot of time to advance my cultivation." He thought as he followed the direction from which he was sensing his wives' aura.

He wasn't surprised to find that his woman also remained at the same levels as they had been for years. Even so, Minos wanted to go ahead with the journey to the Awakening Peak.

'The problems of the escape from Cursed Rock must have finally calmed down after several years. Mylecent probably has made no notable moves in the last few years that I've been in seclusion, so I think we'll have a good chance of getting to the Awakening Peak.

I'll get the Drops of Hell needed to awaken First Elder Juma and a few other high-level specialists before we go into seclusion for another 60 years. After that, I believe Abby will be at a higher level and will awaken the old Elder, even without making him as strong as he was in life.'

With Juma by his side, he could advance several of his plans for the guild post and eventually move on with his journey to the Violent Sea.

Minos was already planning to go to the Violent Sea after a final seclusion following the awakening of First Elder Juma. He also intended to send a group to return to Oqia and finally start moving people from the headquarters to where he was now.

'Decades have passed since we left Oqia and a few more decades will pass before we send a group there... Kendrick, Lily and Hollie will probably be close to becoming Supremes by the time we send people to get them.

Have Rowan and Sarah already left the Spiritual World and The Adamant Land?' he wondered.

At the thought of having at least some of his family members on his side in the not-so-distant future, Minos felt more energized when he met up with his wives.

"You concluded your cultivation, huh?" Abby watched him enter the guild's command room, while Ruth watched the movement of guild members at lower levels through a window and Gloria read some documents, sitting opposite Abby.

The three women looked at him after Abby's words had sounded, and he replied. "Yes. Let's get ready to make our way to Awakening Peak. I'm leaving tomorrow for Hilltop City for a shift change in the area and by the time I get back, you should be ready for us to go on this journey."

This came as no surprise to any of them. They merely agreed, before updating him on the changes of the last few years, both about the guild and the outside world.

There were updates on Odibrand Redwound for Minos to hear!
