"About that, young master, the Hayes family is already doing the work of gathering all the documents and letters left behind. But since many people died in that city, it might take a while before we get a result."

"There were thousands of people with spatial rings in the Chambers family headquarters, from nobles to high-ranking subordinates. But, on the other hand, that family's vault was full of such items as well, so it will take a while for the analysis service to be done."

"Not to mention that because of the war, the Hayes family lost more than 10,000 subordinates, and almost as many subordinates are wounded. So, there is a shortage of workforce to analyze these documents."

"For all that, we may have to wait for weeks to months to find out if in some of these items left behind there was something more about the Scourges of the Devil," Joey said, concluding this point.

It was expected that at least some information about that organization would be found in that place. After all, the Chambers family had deep connections with the Scourges of the Devil.

So, even if the exact location of that group headquarters were not found, there would certainly be something, even if only contacts with the assassins of that organization.

And with the Persephone seizure, Minos was eager to receive any information that would help him get closer to that group.

He was not yet ready to march toward the Scourge of the Devil headquarters, but knowing this kind of information beforehand would be of great help to him.

"Hmm, well, that's as expected... In any case, keep contact with the Hayes family as active as possible."

"As soon as they have such information, I want that passed on to me immediately!"

"OK, young master!"

...

While Minos was working at the local government mansion, Abby walked through Dry City, with some army Spiritual Generals following her towards a particular place.

"In the next few days, you will be one of the first army groups to start fighting the Brown family."

"But even if you haven't had as many experiences as the soldiers outside Dry City right now, don't worry, your forces are excellent in our region." She talked to those Sergeants as she made her way to an outer part of this city.

Gulp!

Meanwhile, those people were swallowing their saliva in anxiety, a little afraid of what would happen in the future.

These people were part of the escort group of the administrative Sergeants of the local army, the soldiers who were negotiating with the Brown family group. Consequently, given the inevitable future of these negotiations, the time would come when the local forces should exterminate these people from the Brown family!

And this group would be part of that mission.

"Believe in the army's training and do not spare the enemies who stand in the army's way. As long as you do this, I guarantee you will have at least a 50% better chance of survival!" She said as she advised this group, she was commanding.

Each of the Spiritual Kings and some influential members in the army had their own groups, people they directly commanded. After all, this kind of division made it much easier to manage an organization with thousands of people.

And because of this, now and then, this girlfriend of Minos would talk to these soldiers directly under her command, to advise them and give them some orders.

She then continued. "The enemies of the army are powerful and numerous, but they have never prepared for the kind of threat that our organization poses."

"As such, act according to the situation, but do not fear the enemies..."

"They are not invincible!"

"Yes, Seargent Abby!" they said simultaneously, at the same time they arrived at that woman's destination.

Such a place looked like a piece of the forest within Dry City, a location with a few hundred thousand square meters of area and many sounds of beasts of the most varied kinds in the surroundings.

Besides the many trees surrounding this space in one of the most extreme areas of the city, broad streets connected this place with the local main avenues. At the same time, a significant road encircled the entire Dry City in that area, forming a large circle connected to the four exits of the wall.

Finally, more than 4 meters high, golden fences surrounded this place. At the same time, several soldiers from the Black Plain Army could be seen patrolling the site.

That was the place where the more enormous beasts of citizens or visitors could be housed, the Beast Park!

After more than two months since the visit of the Feathered Serpents group, this place had been built. At first, it was only a place for a few beasts, particularly those four serpents that had stayed in this city.

But after these two months, the place had grown considerably. It had gained the financial and personal support of the local government, finally reaching the actual conditions.

There weren't many beasts in Dry City before, especially not many giant beasts. In fact, only White and a few other beasts at the 5th stage could be considered big enough to have to stay in this place. But they were not numerous to the point that this city needed structures like this.

However, with the agreement of Minos and the Flooded Valley Feathered Serpent tribe, such a thing would change!

Many beasts at the 5th stage of that tribe would come to this city because of that agreement, and as such, there was a need for a space for these beings to live.

On the other hand, the local population kept increasing every day, and the number of beasts locally would grow too. And not only that, the local beasts were getting stronger, as their masters were getting more opportunities, meaning more resources for themselves, their families, and beasts!

Anyway, there were many reasons to invest in a place like this, where Abby had just passed through the entrance gate.

This woman had come here to talk with one of the Flooded Valley Feathered Serpent tribe elders who was already living in this city.

With that, she soon passed through the central passage within that area, where some beasts could be seen walking, running, or resting.

That was a tranquil place, which seemed like a great playground for those beasts, many of them who previously had to rest outside the built-up area of Dry City, which was not very lively.

But in a place like this, where there were many trees, small lakes, mud, grass, and so on, spending time away from their masters became much more pleasant.

And with that, Abby and those soldiers had smiles on their faces as they watched the beasts enjoying themselves as they walked around. Particularly for Kyla, who often came here and who at the moment was walking alongside a giant white tiger and some serpents.

Kyla's tribe was truly remarkable in the Continent of the Beasts, having a considerably strong lineage. Because of this, ordinary, weak beasts such as those found in this region could not help but respect this young Nine-tailed Fox.

"Sister Abby, what are you doing here?" Then, finally, Kyla saw Minos' girlfriend standing around and ran towards her, waving her five tails.

At the same time as that, the level 53 Feathered Serpent that was next to Kyla earlier quickly moved toward where Abby was following that fox.

She might only be a level 40 beast, but it was no shame for this level 53 serpent to become a follower of Kyla.

After all, Kyla could one day reach the 9th stage of cultivation!

"Hi, little Kyla, I'm here to talk to elder Hari," Abby said as she smiled at that 2 meters tall fox, who was already at her side.

Upon hearing that, that serpent soon greeted her. "Young Abby, it's good to see you again."

"Hmm, well, tell me about how things are going around here."

"How many Feathered Serpents are in Dry City? The war against the Brown Kingdom is presumed to start in a few days, so it would be best if that were advanced as soon as possible..."

"It would not be good to travel from the Flooded Valley to here after that period."

"Oh? That's good to know..."

"But don't worry, almost 300 of our tribe members are already in Dry City. As for the last 100 individuals in our agreement with young Minos, they will arrive in the next six days...."
