The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1755

After some time talking, the group improved their plans a bit, adjusting what they judged about their true combat power and the level of their opponents.

But as they finished talking about theories, Minos immediately suggested. "Let's fight a little. Without us having some idea of each other's

capabilities, it will be difficult for us to adjust our plans more correctly."

The men in the surrounding area immediately agreed to this, and one of the mercenaries asked. "How exactly will we do that? By fighting each other?"

Minos shook his head negatively. "No, what we need is to train the collective strategy, in which you all act to stop the Demigods."

"But how will we do that?" A level 88 beast asked, looking at Minos.

Starclaw smiled and said. "We will fight Minos, of course."

"Uh?" One of the women in the group of mercenaries looked at Minos strangely.

"That's right. I will face all of you." Minos smiled as he looked in the direction of the weakest member of Fermo's group. "I will have the help of only that one over there.

Since you are very strong, I will take it hard, so be careful."

Few there understood this as a friendly warning from Minos for them to prepare for high-level training.

Only the Longus family hybrids knew Minos' abilities were indeed fearsome, so the beasts and mercenaries in the surrounding area did not take his words as seriously as they should have.

Nobody said anything right away, waiting to see if this was a joke or if Minos really had a weapon up his sleeve.

Then, as Minos smiled, he floated into the air along with a level 84 hybrid."Just give me a moment..."

As Minos spoke, his Soul Avatar began to form, along with increasing his level and decreasing that hybrid's cultivation base.

Feeling in his skin what it was like to be under the innate ability of Henricus Longus' chosen one, that half-breed couldn't help but swallow his saliva, seeing how terrible it was to lose part of his cultivation.

Meanwhile, the others in the surroundings became more serious as they felt Minos' cultivation jumping from level 80 to level 82.

His avatar immediately reached a level unimaginable to those men and women in the surroundings, becoming as dense as the soul projection of the strongest one there.

The spatial laws emanating from him were terrifyingly profound, and those people soon felt the passage of time in their surroundings changing substantially.

At this moment, Minos' strength resembled that of peak level 89 cultivators!

"How is this possible? Is there such a powerful innate ability?" One of the mercenaries opened his mouth in shock as he hurried to circulate his energies.

The other high-level men in the surrounding area were doing the same, feeling they might suffer at Minos' hands if they were not quick enough.

Minos smiled at them and said. "Fight together against me, just as you will do against the Demigods we will face soon.

Some of them will demonstrate slightly stronger abilities than mine, so you need to at least be able to block me so we have a chance of winning!"

As Minos spoke, over 100 colored swords appeared in the sky in that area, with him already showing off one of his fusions without giving his men any notice.

Each of the 60 or so people in the surrounding area felt chills run down their spines at the sight of those swords, each of them containing a power very similar to that of level 90 cultivator attacks!

"Shit!"

"The damned thing is that strong?"

Some of the mercenaries sweated coldly while already activating their defensive techniques with as much as they could use.

By giving Minos room to start with a fusion already at the beginning of the fight, they lost their big advantage on their side.

'His Majesty can fuse his techniques so fast?' The Longus family hybrids wondered as they transformed into their beastly versions.

So were the beasts in the surrounding area transforming, several of them already joining together in an attempt to defend and attack together.

Chaotic Gravity: Meteors of Destruction!

Simultaneously with this, Minos was already destroying the adjacent forest by creating dozens of meteors over that area as his swords fell on his opponents.

Several trees and rocks on the ground began to detach, turning into gigantic projectiles headed for the meteor cores being formed.

They were so fast in their movement that the men trying to defend themselves from the swords falling on them also had to keep a close eye on them, or they could end up being carried away by it as well.

"Damn it! Unite with me! His Majesty is a monster!" One of the mercenaries said to those men in his mercenary group, feeling that they were at an extreme disadvantage.

Minos was only one, a young man of level 80, but even so, his abilities were terrible.

He had extremely favorable abilities for fighting large numbers, and right at the beginning of the fight, all those in the surrounding area realized this.

The mercenaries were totally shocked by Minos' initial display of power, understanding this ruler's words over the past few days.

'The damned thing really can do what he promised!' One of them thought as the union of the defensive techniques of the men in his group created a gigantic cocoon around them.

Simultaneously, each of the groups there managed to form their defenses and try to counter Minos' first blow, already expending almost half of their energies in the first moment of combat.

"That's good, but the enemies will be more than one, so let's make it a little harder!" Minos shouted as his whole domain became more hazy, with the Dark Sea reaching those souls.

The stronger ones only felt more afraid of Minos with this ability activated, but the weaker ones soon began to behave strangely.

Swooish!

A level 85 beast then attacked in the direction of its companions, suddenly scaring everyone in its vicinity while breaking its defensive formation.

"Hey! What's wrong with him?"

"Tsk! His Majesty is controlling him!"

"Quick, get away from the weaker ones!"

Several voices rushed through the surroundings as Minos changed the configuration of the battlefield.

He advised. "My friends, if you do not unite in the right way, you will all die facing Demigods.

Quickly, manipulate the space and try to block my techniques and put pressure on me. That's what you should do in a fight against the cursed Longus family leader!"

After Minos' words, several of those stronger men regained their composure, putting Minos' shocking powers aside to focus on the plan they had just made.

'That's right. We don't have to face him head-on!'
