The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2509

Seeing this region of space approaching, Artaud did not underestimate the potential of this fusion of Minos' technique.

The black hole wasn't merely the condensation of a power capable of killing a level 113 Sovereign if caught off guard. It had already been fed by something and had reached a level beyond even Minos' control.

Cautious not to fall for a trick from someone weaker, Artaud used the Blade Dance to destroy Minos' creation, giving the five 'Supremes' attacking him time to complete their moves.

Meanwhile, half of the corpses Minos had summoned disappeared, having reached the limit of their existence after the severe damage from the previous attack. The survivors, along with Minos, watched as the five Supremes attacked together.

Wovar and Clexvog teamed up again, attempting to crush the enemy, while Sender concentrated his powers to force his mental weapon, the cauldron, to hold Artaud in place for a few moments.

The General's other two enemies made their moves: one pierced Artaud's legs with his spider limbs, while the other launched a mental attack.

Artaud struggled to fend off Minos' black hole while defending against his enemies. As he destroyed the terrifying essence that could later end him, he felt the impact of his opponents' attacks.

His legs were pierced before something caught his arms and legs in a dangerous position. Then two enormous feet reached him, just before the two essences that were trapping him disappeared.

At the decisive moment, something seemed to pierce his mind like a sharp sword, and then he felt the heavy attack of the giants.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!"

His arms and legs broke as he opened his mouth to scream, emitting a painful sound that could be heard dozens of miles away.

Then, as the men looked at him and saw the opening to massacre him, the barrier created by the formation in that area collapsed, losing its restrictive effect.

Minos didn't hesitate when he saw this. With a wave of his hand, he made the five remaining corpses disappear back into their coffins, one of them carrying the corpse of the target of Minos' mission.

Artaud didn't even notice Minos' movement. The moment he found himself under mental and physical attack, all he could do was flee while he still could.

Already badly injured and with enemies led by a seer, his chances would only diminish with time! His big chance there was to kill Minos before he suffered in a fight against those five 'Supremes'. But after failing to do so and now being seriously injured, he thought about how weakened he would be in a few more minutes and flapped his wings in flight from the area.

"Shit! Stop him! He has to die!" Minos yelled, ignoring the pain in his body as it began to regenerate, burning in a blue flame as his heart pounded.

The five men moved in pursuit, attacking Artaud's escape route as they pressed him.

Minos moved behind them, using the Divine Seal to teleport to the position of one of his allies.

Appearing above Sender, Minos climbed onto the alien's back and ordered him toward the enemy, watching Artaud's future steps as he ordered his group to prevent the general's escape.

'We have to kill the bastard! Next time he won't be able to use the victim, but he might have allies on his side against us!' Minos thought as he watched Artaud dodge the men's movements.

As much as Artaud could hardly fight against Minos' allies trying to kill him right now, the situation wasn't quite right for his escape.

Since he was on a higher level than the strongest of the aliens chasing him, he managed to deftly dodge most of the attacks of Minos' men while gradually increasing his distance from them.

The only attack to hit him was one of Minos' moves, which left a mark on his body and made him look at his enemy strangely.

Angry, Artaud cut off the arm without much thought, feeling that it would be impossible for him to get rid of his enemies if he took the mark with him.

When he tried to move his space storage Item from the severed arm to his other arm, one of the giants prevented him from completing the movement, making him tremble with rage.

But his life was more important than what he had with him, so he simply ignored it and continued to increase his distance from his enemies.

Five minutes into the chase, Artaud would leave his initial 30-meter lead and gain an advantage of over 100 meters, showing the group that he was moving toward a successful escape!

Minos tried his best, but even though he could predict the enemy's future movements, he couldn't do much about the maximum speed of his companions. He couldn't affect the enemy's senses, and his powers had their limits.

With another 15 minutes of movement, Minos' side would be forced to stop attacking and start looking for signs left by the enemy.

Artaud got enough distance from these six individuals that they lost sight of him!

"Shit! The bastard made it!" Minos shouted, ignoring the pain in his entire body.

"What now, boss? His strength will soon fade. But so will ours." One man currently at level 115 asked with a troubled expression.

He didn't want to give up. Letting Artaud go meant even bigger problems for all of them in the future. But what could they do?

Their forces would soon dwindle as well and the enemy would surely be able to at least hide from them.

Minos knew this as he looked back and sighed. "It will be useless to go after him. Let's get the arm he left behind and get back to the guild.

He'll probably go into hiding for a few months to recover from what happened before returning to the guild. Let's prepare to deal with him in the meantime."

They turned back the way they came.

Even though they were determined and sure that this was the best thing to do, they couldn't help but express their frustration at not being able to eliminate Artaud.
