The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2034

When Vico Travisani appeared above the volcano, Minos and Ruth looked at him wide-eyed, seeing how unlucky they were.

'Did it have to be him?' Ruth looked at Minos with a frightened expression.

If it had been Maximilian, their situation would have been much less dire. But Vico was someone who had openly threatened Minos many times!

What's more, the Black Plain Empire had sided with the Spiritual Church in the war on the Central Continent, something else that could endanger them!

And now they were facing the strongest enemy they could have!

Isabella and the rest of the Black Plain Empire personnel were not there, as Minos had sent them to his Spatial Kingdom when he realized that the defenses around the North Sea had collapsed.

Thus, only the survivors of the expedition that had traveled together from Dry City to this place were at his side.

'What will happen?' Minos took a deep breath, knowing that even if he wanted to flee to the Spatial Kingdom, he wouldn't be able to escape in time.

If Vico decided to kill him right now, that would be his end!

But while Minos was looking at Vico along with all the survivors of his group, the newly arrived God observed the volcano and immediately noticed what was inside it.

Besides being a gigantic facility, the place contained many things of the highest level, ships and spaceships that Vico had never seen before, but also robots.

Some of those in Minos' group wore alien armor, but the level 100 man wisely understood that they were not enemies but people from this world who were there with Emperor Stuart.

'Tsk! That brat is really smart...' He looked in the direction of the person who had the most threatening feeling there. 'He defeated the enemies with a weapon similar to the one around his waist, and since then, he's been in this place absorbing extraterritorial technologies.'

Vico saw at a glance what Minos' group had done in the last few months, while he also noticed the mass destruction weapon on the brown-haired young man's waist.

Then he approached these people.

"Your Majesty Vico Travisani. Congratulations on reaching level 100..." Minos' group said simultaneously, all bowing their heads and greeting the man.

The blond man walking in the air ignored everyone and looked at Minos.

Narrowing his eyes, he saw a ring on one of Minos' hands that no one but him and Emperor Stuart could see.

'I see... So that's why. That's why you grew up so fast and so strong.' He understood the ring of the Spatial Kingdom in an instant.

Gods could even invade enemy Spatial Kingdoms if they knew their location. So, it wasn't difficult for Vico to sense the Spatial Kingdom ring that Henricus Longus had left behind.

Vico then opened his mouth and addressed his words to Minos.

"Minos Stuart, I never thought we would meet like this."

"Your Majesty, I can say the same." Minos bitterly laughed as he looked at the man's feet. "Unfortunately, many things have gone wrong between us. I hope we can put that aside in the face of the alien threat."

Vico laughed and moved even closer to Minos, touching the young man's neck as he saw the truth about Emperor Stuart.

"Great talent indeed. Your talent is even greater than mine. That must have been the inheritance you received." Vico said for all to hear as he squeezed Minos' neck. "Your Physique isn't bad either. It's just one step away from becoming a Divine grade one. But will you be able to take that step? If you do, you could even threaten mid-level Demigods."

Everyone looked at Vico with fear, not knowing what he would do to Minos.

Everyone there knew about Emperor Travisani's grudge against his colleague from the Black Plain. Not only that, everyone knew how important Minos could be in the future war, so they didn't want to lose him now.

'What should we do? The tribe is on Minos' side...' Nymmas, the great dragon, thought.

Vico continued. "Besides, you have a strong dragon aura and an ability sealed in your body... It looks like you've received two level 100 heritages! You must be the first in history, Minos."

"I was a bit lucky," Minos said with difficulty, unable to move while being held by Vico.

Vico clenched his other hand, feeling that the young man in his hands could challenge him in a few decades if he hadn't advanced. But even at level 100, he felt a strange sensation that told him it would be better to eliminate the young man.

'Should I kill him and take his Spatial Kingdom? Surely, there are things of value in this alternate space.' He narrowed his eyes, imagining that a God who had left even a Spatial Kingdom would have left things of value even to a God.

Doubtful about what to do, Vico squeezed Minos' neck a little tighter as a solid murderous intent left his body.

'Take it easy, boy.'

Suddenly, Vico heard a voice in his head and looked to the side, letting go of Minos' neck as he felt he was being watched.

Looking down at his own body, he frowned when he saw a thread of golden energy entering him, coming from one of Minos' hands.

"Shit!" He realized he had underestimated this ring and immediately circulated his energies to protect himself.

But at that moment, everything around him stopped. The people in Minos' group became immobile, and his own body slowed down many times over, slowly ceasing to move.

A huge, semi-transparent hourglass formed around this area while only Vico's consciousness remained stable at real-time speed.

'Don't be so hasty, young man. Think twice before you make a mistake.' The same voice as before sounded as Vico saw the figure of a bearded old man appear in front of him and slap him on the forehead.

Unable to move, he recognized what it was and cursed his luck. 'Damned God of Time! I didn't expect someone like you to get in my way!'

'Don't be so angry. Let me show you a bit of the future. Look at it!' The white-haired old man with the semi-transparent body said before his slap generated a stream of information into Vico's head.

At that moment, Vico saw the same thing Minos had seen long ago and felt Henricus Longus' terrible prediction for the Spiritual World as perfectly as possible.

Seeing several Gods appearing in this vision, Vico suddenly changed his state of mind, understanding the true power of the enemy of the Spiritual World!

'We are in trouble!'
