The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2610

After a few days of traveling, Minos, Ruth, and Abby arrived at the guild headquarters along with the level 120 Elder.

They passed through the guild's entrance, but when they entered the city on the floating island, they were met with a welcome unlike anything they had ever seen.

Their party hadn't arrived there as just another successful team returning from the war. The moment Minos and his wives set foot in the city, the Elder disappeared, telling them only to make their way to the Council. Then, the guild members in the streets stopped what they were doing and watched them make their way to the city center.

Some just stood in silence, watching with admiring and positive looks on their faces, nodding in agreement as if to say they had their support.

Others clapped for Minos and his women, ignoring the hostages they had brought with them, who were obviously frightened for their future.

"Well done, General! You're amazing!"

"General, I'm available for anything. If you need anything, Sabus will do his best to help you," said a pointy-eared individual as he offered himself to Minos.

"Congratulations on taking the Monastery of Chaos, General. My brother saw the battle and said you were marvelous! I hope to fight alongside you in the future!"

Amidst the supportive comments congratulating Minos on his accomplishments, some took the opportunity to show off for him.

"General, help me become stronger. I'm ready to do anything you want! Anything at all!" Said a woman in human form, trying to get Minos' attention.

Abby shot an icy glance toward the person who said that, which made some of the other women who were thinking of offering themselves to Minos think twice before saying anything.

Minos and his companions walked quickly, so they soon left the outer part of the city and entered the inner part, where members of his faction and subordinates from the Law Enforcement Hall and the Expansion Hall were waiting for them.

"Welcome back to the guild, General Minos and Officers Abby and Ruth!"

At least 200 people between levels 105 and 114 shouted simultaneously, while further ahead, Minos and his companions could see Generals waiting for them at the entrance to the Council.

"Our accomplishments have already become known throughout the guild," Ruth said with a clinical eye, understanding why they had been recalled so urgently.

If the whole guild already knew about Minos' deeds in the Monastery of Chaos, it was likely that the enemies would soon find out and start a hunt against Minos.

Minos was already a monster who had helped Armhands get level 115 corpses, but to help living creatures was an even more impressive and dangerous feat. Someone like him would either lead Armhands to the top or cause the end of the guild in a war of their own making.

Armhands' enemies would prefer to see this force fall, so it was expected that assassins would soon move against Minos!

But not only enemies would be dangerous. Even allies might turn against the guild to prevent too great an imbalance of power on the continent.

Minos agreed with Ruth. "It looks like we'll be stuck in the guild until the war is over and it's time to leave for Uzira... Sigh! At least nobody knows us in Uzira. So the Supreme Leader will probably not stop us from going there."

"But we probably won't go to the continent alone. There will probably be people from outside our faction in our group to make sure we establish a guild group there." Abby ignored the comments on their way to the Council.

After arriving at the entrance to the Council, each of his fellow Generals greeted Minos, each of them eager for the opportunity to receive his help.

Minos said to them, "If you bring me level 114 enemies, I can help you reach level 115. But there will be a price. For each of you I help, I want you to bring me enemies for the members of my faction."

The level 114 men and women obviously liked what they heard, even though it wasn't easy to kidnap enemies of the same level as them.

However, they all agreed that it was much easier than waiting for the guild's resources.

When Minos entered the Council, some of them already had plans to go on missions as soon as possible to get enemies like the ones he had requested.

Others were just eager about the possibility of reaching the 12th stage, a big dream for many of them.

Ignoring them after saying his words, he entered the Council area and arrived at the guild's command center, where the Commander, 4 Elders, and the Supreme Leader were waiting for them.

"We have reported to the Supreme Leader. Our plans were successful." Minos and his wives made a gesture of greeting when they saw the satisfied looks in their direction.

The Supreme Leader said in a good mood, "Minos, from now on I want you to stay in seclusion at the headquarters. I know you must understand my motives. Until you become stronger or we win this war, it will be too dangerous for you to travel freely.

But don't worry, the guild will provide you with all the support you need to help you, your family, and your faction grow stronger in the coming decades. As for your trip to Uzira, when you are ready, I will personally escort your party to the west coast and see you off into the Violent Sea."

Minos agreed with the Supreme Leader, but even if he disagreed, there was nothing to argue about. He nodded in understanding before hearing a barrage of positive comments from his superiors, along with promises of resources, merit points, and wealth for him and his faction.

There were hardly any power struggles among the Elders, given their absolute positions and their goal to be in something beyond the guild—the Upper Realm.

Thus, the support that Minos enjoyed at that moment was almost entirely homogeneous.
