The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2741  The People of the Central Forest

Minos surprised Yon with his speed, quickly crossing the magical forest and arriving at the entrance to the green-skinned man's tribe.

Arriving at the area where there were some guards with similar appearances to Yon, the green man walked ahead of Minos, leading the way into the tribe.

The guards looked intently at Minos, but none of them impeded the foreigner's passage. Yon was stronger than them, so this guy must have known what he was doing.

But as strong as he was, Yon wasn't the most powerful of his people. As soon as he entered what looked like a city fused with nature, a paradise lost and far from the domain of developed forces, Minos saw a level 119 Supreme enter their path, looking at Yon and himself in an ugly way.

Minos couldn't help but be interested in how common low and mid-level Supremes seemed to be in Uzira!

While the level 119 stranger seemed to say bad things to Yon, Minos sensed at least two dozen Supremes in his vicinity. And given Yon's movements, there was at least one group of individuals stronger than him and the spiky-haired man getting in their way.

'The differences between Uzira and Oqia are like the ancient Black Plain and the Elves Island... Impressive. I didn't expect to find that in Zocarro.'

"... Yon, what do you think you're doing? Bringing an invader into our lands? Are you crazy?" asked the spiky-haired individual, while holding a hammer larger than his own body in his hands.

Minos looked into the individual's eyes, seeing this one's confidence and bravery. "You should back off for now, How. Taking care of the wound you suffered on your last hunt should be your priority, not getting new ones."

How gave Yon an even nastier look. "Did you also talk about your fellow villagers to this foreigner?" he asked in a more altered tone, his voice drawing the attention of even those who hadn't yet noticed the confusion.

Gradually, people similar to Yon and How left their homes, surrounding the trio with strangers.

Yon swallowed his saliva as he looked at Minos, frightened by the seer's abilities. He had said nothing about his people to the white-haired man.

'Such strong powers of clairvoyance are not normal. Only those with enhanced temporal control can see the future without even showing that they are prophesying.' Yon considered as he ignored How to look at Minos.

Yon was very intelligent and talented. He knew how terrifying powerful seers could be, but seers usually needed to enter special states of prophesying to get the kind of information that Minos seemed to hold. However, Minos had not once demonstrated such a state during the minutes they had been together.

Yon inferred from it that Minos could control time and so he didn't need to prophesy like 'normal' cultivators.

Minos just smiled at How. However, he took two steps to the side, attracting the gazes of those strange green beings, watching him move as if he were going to dance.

Two seconds later, a level 121 individual with long white hair and a beard, dressed in a white cloak, appeared right in front of where Minos had been standing a few moments before, using one of his fingers to strike toward what would have been the invader's abdomen.

"Your people get a rather special reception, Yon," Minos said as he looked at the old green being, before two other elders appeared in the middle of the area.

The other two were women, one of them of a similar level to the old man who tried to attack him, while the other was stronger, possibly the leader of the tribe, in Minos' opinion. She was at level 122.

The level 121 old man narrowed his eyes as he looked away, surprised that Minos could dodge his movement so well.

"You're fast, foreigner," said the man as he ran one of his hands through his long beard.

"That's nothing. You'd be surprised if we fought," Minos said as he narrowed his eyes at the man.

But then he moved and looked in the direction of the level 122 woman, deflecting a secondary blow that the old man tried to hit him with.

As she watched her main guard attack the void, missing again, Ibbe looked with interest at Minos, while thinking about how to deal with this opponent.

Minos surprised her by making a gesture of greeting. "Elder Ibbe, my name is Minos Stuart. Earlier I was traveling when Yon invited me to come to your tribe. I wish your people no harm. I would just like some directions. I'm lost in the area."

Ibbe looked at Yon and immediately understood that he hadn't invited Minos. This talented member of the tribe had, in fact, chosen the path of life rather than death.

"How is that possible?" She asked with interest. "How does a seer have the nerve to say he's lost?"

Minos laughed bitterly. "I entered a spatial deformation some time ago and then came out near this region, in a mountainous area of black rocks, with no life in the vicinity."

The strongest of the tribe narrowed their eyes when they heard this information.

Such a place had been missing for millennia!

"Did the spatial deformation you entered lead you to such a place? What did you find there?" asked the other powerful woman, while the members of the village nearby murmured things among themselves, drawing Minos' attention to what such a place was.

"I won't lie. I found an heirloom from an expert. But for some reason, her dimension fell apart after I completed it."

He only told part of the truth, but enough for those people to believe him.

The three strongest people there looked at each other, agreeing on what they should do.

"The place you passed was probably the inheritance built by the leader of a force that existed in this area in the past. That sect was almost completely wiped out and then their headquarters disappeared in one night," Ibbe said, before motioning for Minos to follow.

"If you're serious about just wanting directions, we can help you with that." She continued as she signaled her people to move away. "We're in the central part of Uzira. Do you know the map of the continent?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Not as well as I'd like."

"The region we're in is one of the least populated, second only to the area further east, near the Violent Sea. But someone like you should be able to reach the domains of the continent's sovereigns in a few days' travel.

All you have to do is travel west, southwest, or northwest. You'll eventually reach one of the continent's cities." Ibbe explained as she climbed to the top of a tree and showed Minos the surroundings. From where they could see the tops of many trees, a beautiful view of the region.

"There's one place in particular I'd like to go. In fact, there's a group that I feel is going there. If you could give me some news about them, that would be even better."

"What group is that?" The level 121 man asked, fearing trouble.

"A huge horde of undead, containing even mid-level Supreme corpses."
