The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-738

A few minutes after the fall of the four core members of the Allen family, the result of this battle had finally reached the troops of this organization!

The troops of the Allen family and their allies were already spread out around the neighborhood where the headquarters of the Nash family was located. After all, they intended to attack this enemy organization after Duncan and Rolf's mission was successful.

Since they had investigated the area where Marvin and Richard were and sent a powerful group to that place, they did not expect any outcome other than a victory.

Consequently, everything was already prepared for their troops to act against the headquarters of Elen's family in an attempt to weaken even more these enemies of theirs at this opportune moment.

But while they were waiting for the message from their leaders so that they could attack this place, the nightmare that few of them thought could happen had happened!

Some administrative members of the headquarters of this family had rushed to these groups with the news of the death of their leaders!

...

"Elder Elise, something terrible has happened!" A man with white hair who was at the end of the 5th stage said this while his face was as white as his hair.

He then looked in terror at that woman, who at the moment was the strongest person alive in this family. "The patriarch, the supreme elder, and the four elders who accompanied that team are dead!"

"They all died in just over 20 minutes!" He said this while feeling very bad. Not only from the exhaustion of running several kilometers to bring this information but also from the bleak future he and his family were likely to face.

Upon hearing this, elder Elisa and all the Spiritual Kings who were preparing to act against House Nash fell silent for a moment.

At that moment, while the silence of that place made them feel even more awful, various negative expressions could be seen on the faces of those experts.

Previously some of them were relieved to have the opportunity to end this conflict. But now, they seemed to have lost their ground, as if they had awakened to a cruel reality that they didn't want to be true.

Others were already feeling a distinct chill running down their spines. It was as if their senses were telling them that it wouldn't take long for them to encounter those dead people in the underworld.

And, of course, the looks of regret in the eyes of the Allen family allies could also be seen in some people in that place.

Elder Elise then broke the silence and asked in a low voice. "That can't be. Are you serious, Howard? Are you saying that the patriarch, the supreme elder, and the four strongest members of our family were killed?"

This level 55 Spiritual King couldn't help but feel disbelief upon hearing that information. As such, she needed to ask that.

But in her heart, Elise already knew it was true. After all, there was no reason for a family member to make such a bad joke!

She had only asked this because this news was so shocking and contradictory that part of her had still demanded a second confirmation.

"Unfortunately, elder Elise, that is the truth..." The man from before commented in a terrified tone, sweating considerably. "The two elders who were supposed to be with the group of allies in the vicinity of that place were the first to have their soul signs erased."

"But not long after, the supreme elder and the other two elders who were in that group of the patriarch fell in sequence, with only a few seconds between their deaths."

"The patriarch was the last to fall." He described what he had seen in the room where the soul lamps of the prominent members of that family were located.

"What?" Upon hearing such a thing, one of those allies was the first besides Elisa to say something while a look of concern appeared on his face. "Does that mean that Pearl's group has also been eliminated?"

Gulp!

"Mister Lonnie, I have no way of knowing for sure since we don't have the soul signs of the members of other families. But since no one returned from that mission, we assume that they all died." Such a person commented after swallowing his saliva in fear, looking at that person, one of the patriarchs of a mid-sized family from Stone Island that was in the alliance of House Allen.

Hearing this, not only that man but other allies of House Allen there were hooked, with ominous premonitions, some already preparing to leave that place.

There in this place were people from several local noble families and outside allies, as in the case of the Collins family, which had a level 55 Spiritual King in this group.

Since some of these powers had sent their members to help Duncan's group, they were already very concerned about what might have happened to their family members.

Duncan's group was basically made up of the leading team, the six people that had succumbed to the joint action of Celeste and Marvin's group. But another group of Spiritual Kings in that area was tasked to deal with Celeste's group, which had been identified earlier.

But that group had also succumbed to Celeste's hands while she and her group were rushing to the site of the main fights.

And since some of those individuals were high-ranking people in those families allied to House Allen, those representatives couldn't help but be agitated by the possibility that all those people had died.

Some of them were even husbands or wives of those people in this place!

On the other hand, as those allies hurriedly left that place, the members of the Allen family were all in a state of depression.

"Tsk!"

"I don't believe it!"

"The damned Nash have tricked us and destroyed the foundation of our family!"

"We are finished! Now without the protection of the patriarch and the supreme elder, it's only a matter of time before we're wiped out!"

"Damn it!"

"How could this happen? Our investigative groups hadn't found anything suspicious!"

"What will we do now?"

While several of those people discussed what had happened and what the future held for them, Elise, despite her great fear, didn't take long to try to calm down.

Unfortunately, time did not stop just because she had huge problems in front of her. Therefore, she could not let herself get carried away by the feeling of despair and remain impassive in this place.

Consequently, she tried to be strong and take responsibility for dealing with this situation, which would invariably fall into her lap since she was the strongest surviving expert of this family.

"Let's back off for the moment." She commented loudly so that everyone there could hear her. "The Nash family has been badly damaged in the previous months, and they will not be able to take immediate action against us."

"So, let's step back and study our options at headquarters..."

"Perhaps there is a way out!"

...

In the blink of an eye, another week passed.

In this period, the Nash family had not acted against House Allen since their organization was not at its best moments. And with that recent fight, the leaders of Elen's family needed some time to rest before going ahead with their bolder plans.

But obviously, the Nash family had not missed the opportunity to change their behavior regarding matters other than battles!

Previously, House Allen suppressed them because of the difference in strength between the two, the result of that action of the Allens with the Farmland families months ago.

But with the death of the Allen family's most substantial specialists and some allies of that organization, things had once again changed in the war that had been taking place on Stone Island.

So, the Nash family and their allies had not missed the opportunity to change several of their behaviors, beginning to suppress the enemy alliance!

But meanwhile, the 50,000 soldiers of House Brown's Counter-Revolutionary Army had almost entirely reached the Black Plain!
