The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1734

The moment Minos placed that village under the shadows of his soul ability, immediately the inhabitants unaware of what was happening expressed their concerns.

Some of the more sensitive ones felt a chill run through their bodies and stopped what they were doing to look from one side to the other, searching for the cause of this reaction.

Others didn't even have the chance to notice that someone was about to manipulate them and simply had the mere reaction of momentarily stopping what they were doing and feeling a great blank in their minds.

For a brief instant, nothing was in their minds. It was as if they had suddenly been disconnected from reality and forgotten all about themselves, where they were, and who they were.

The white gave way to darkness in the next instant as monstrous creatures rose from the ground, whispering wicked things, trying to corrupt them.

"Kill them!"

"They have fooled you for too long... Show them your strength! Show them who you are!"

Some of the most vulnerable were carried away by the compelling tone of darkness in their hearts, showing no resistance to Minos' malicious action.

A few moments after much of that village was covered by darkness, dozens of people began to move about strangely, drawing weapons and striking out toward anyone nearby.

Swooish!

"Aaaagh!"

"Bastard! What are you doing?"

"Ah, help! Help! My mother has gone crazy!"

Cries arose from different parts of that village as brothers turned on brothers, men turned their weapons on their wives, and sons and friends began to attack each other.

Without warning, someone would pull a weapon and strike decisively toward those near them, totally controlled by the fear in their hearts.

The Demigod flying behind Minos realized this and narrowed his eyes, noticing that this village could experience a bloodbath in a few moments!

"What diabolical skill!" He muttered, not being able to believe Minos' ability to influence so many people so quickly.

The other two Demigods around that village, at two important points in their headquarters, also noticed what Minos was doing, and they both felt the same way.

Frustration and helplessness!

The woman from earlier clenched her fists and abandoned her position. "I have no choice but to try to stop this, patriarch. If we do nothing, there's no point in protecting this place.

What value will it have if our people die?"

That stronger man there saw her moving to try to stop the many already crazed people around that village and shook with anger, glaring furiously at Minos.

'Chris, help Sybil stop our agitated family members!' The leader of that family shouted in the mind of that man chasing Minos. 'I'll take care of the damned invader!'

'But...'

'We have no option here. That bastard's ability is hard to counteract. I can feel that even though we are stronger than him, a single one of you can't undo all this damage alone.' He said to Chris.

As Chris stopped chasing Minos, Emperor Stuart immediately smiled as he saw this, noting that his plan would work well.

Unluckily for these people, he had almost nothing to lose there, so he could take his chances against people stronger than him.

That was Minos' advantage!

He didn't have to protect anyone in this situation, unlike these three level 90 Demigods, who either stopped him or stopped their family members from killing each other!

As leaders and people committed to their own family, they could not simply allow an avoidable massacre to happen, lessening their pressure against this invader.

"Elder, you should also join those two. I'm afraid they alone will not be able to control everyone in this city." Minos shouted as he moved quickly toward his target, near that man.

"Don't try to fool me, brat! You are strong, but your skill is not that tremendous."

"Are you sure about that?" Minos smiled.

After he asked that question, he activated his Chaotic Gravity, this time using the previous evolution of that technique, Meteors of Destruction!

As he flew around the outskirts of that village, several of the buildings in the surrounding area suddenly began to crack, shaking as they were drawn to three points of high gravitational density near Minos.

Seeing this, the Demigod feared what Minos was planning and flew towards him, trying to hit him with his own body since other approaches had failed.

In doing so, he went through space and tried to grab Minos' Soul Avatar to incapacitate him from continuing what he was planning.

But Minos noticed the spatial fluctuations in his surroundings and skillfully deflected, changing his position by manipulating space.

The three cores of his meteors remained where they were while more and more pieces of buildings joined them.

Seeing that, the level 90 Demigod facing Minos felt a chill run down his spine and put those three things into his focus.

'I have to stop that first!'

He rushed to attack those things, but just as he moved in that direction, those three clusters of rocks moved downward, gaining a lot of acceleration because of Minos.

"Deal with it, my friend!" Minos laughed, sending those three meteors in the direction where the two Demigods were too busy with their family members trying to kill each other to solve this problem.

"Shit!"

The patriarch of that family missed his target and noted that he had no choice.

He manipulated space and appeared below where those mass clusters were falling, placing a defensive position over part of the village.

In that instant, when everyone was too busy trying to protect this place, Minos took his cue and moved until he reached his goal, a statue in the middle of that village.

At the foot of that statue was a small plaque next to a picture the size of a portrait.

That portrait was something difficult to analyze at first glance but was very simple to Minos.

'That is Henricus Longus' vision of the future.' He looked at that, where was the representation of a great evil trying to crush the world.

A great darkness was drawn over it while a person was standing amid that darkness and the world.

Minos then placed one of his hands on that thing, infusing his spiritual energy to receive the message that was supposed to be there.

"Hey! What's he doing?" The woman shouted, seeing Minos touching that thing that had already caused the death of several of their family members.

Seeing Minos put his hands there so decisively, the patriarch of that family was silent.

'Did he come here for that? Does he happen to know how to pass the test on that thing?'
