The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 136: Plots

"After arriving in the capital of the kingdom, I discovered that young Leroy was killed during the second test of the Spiritual Tournament. And it was not difficult to find out who was responsible for this since thousands of people watched this..." The man said without changing his voice at any time.

The old man then frowned and asked in a cold tone. "Oh? And who is this person? To have the courage to kill my son, he must be very confident!"

Upon hearing the question from the supreme elder of the Chambers family, the man in question sighed and said. "Nobody knows what family he came from, as he didn't use any surnames during the competition. But, I believe it will be impossible to take revenge on young Leroy..."

"Hmph, there is no one we cannot deal with. Tell me the whole truth right away!"

"This... This young man is called Minos, and he was the finalist of the Spiritual Tournament..."

Upon hearing these words, the old supreme elder almost wanted to spit out a mouth full of blood. That was one of the few powers that they couldn't handle!

Although the Chambers family was not among the ten strongest in the north of the Central Continent, it had contacts with the group of killers, Scourges of the Devil. Because of this, it could easily hire assassins from this organization, who could even deal with some royal families in this part of the continent.

Because of this, the supreme elder of the Chambers family was very confident in avenging his son's death. And depending on the power behind Minos, he would not only kill the person responsible for Leroy's death, but he would also enslave the rest of the family!

This was the only way for Wallace Chambers, Leroy's father, to calm the hatred in his heart. He was already at level 55, over 600-years-old, but Leroy was his only child. Therefore, the old supreme elder was irritated entirely by what had happened.

But if Minos had gone to the Flaming Empire, not only could he forget to avenge himself, but he would also have to hope that this young man did not remember any offense that a Chambers may have done to him, otherwise...

'I do not believe that! How did little Leroy irritate a person of this caliber ' The old man wondered while he had a desolate look on his face. He never thought he would have to deal with his son's death and to make matters worse. He couldn't even avenge him!

He then put his thoughts aside and asked in an even colder tone. "And why is bodyguard Jeff not here? Was he also killed?"

"As for that... Well, he certainly didn't die since his soul signal is as stable as ever. But I didn't get any information about his whereabouts."

"The last time he was seen in Capital City was when young Leroy was killed. After that, he seems to have run away..."

"That bastard! He doesn't want to take responsibility for what happened!" The old man snorted in anger. "Put a reward on his head. I want that coward to pay with his life for the death of my son!"

"OK."

...

Meanwhile, in the capital of Stone Island, the Old Stone city, three people were chatting in a living room. At the same time, they had a newspaper thrown in the middle of a table.

The woman in the group finally said in an uncertain tone. "Due to the retraction of the newspaper and also the person's name, I believe that there is a great probability that this finalist of the Spiritual Tournament was responsible for the death of the young master Darell..."

Upon hearing this, the two men who were with her sighed in defeat. If this was the case, there was nothing else for them to do. It would be impossible to deal with that person...

At this point, one of them finally broke the silence and said. "Ehh, I think we'd better go back and report this to the patriarch. Let's take the opportunity to check the condition of that Minos Stuart too. Since we have to go through the Black Plain, it won't hurt to take a look."

"Hmm, it's not a bad idea!" The other man said with a sly smile. "On second thought, why don't we turn the patriarch's anger on this young man? He has the same name as this suspect that we were chasing, and he is also the son of someone that our family has eliminated!"

"With that, we finished our work, and we still prevent the patriarch from punishing us in the place of the real killer. And as for that brat, he being eliminated is the best for everyone!" The blond man finished speaking his suggestion, with a proud smile on his face.

In his opinion, Austin Silva, Minos was just an excellent sacrifice to avoid the worst for the three of them!

This was a genius move, using a probable enemy as a scapegoat, to avoid problems within their family!

The other man, who had suggested going to the Black Plain before, Dennis, finally said in agreement. "That's right. Miss Sarah, we have no reason not to do what the young Austin said! That would be like killing two birds with one stone!"

The woman who heard these offers then suddenly smiled. "Hmm, that sounds like a good idea. We will be leaving in two days, and then we will deal with this guy."

...

Anyway, while several plots unfold behind the curtains, things on the Black Plain went from wind to pulp in the past weeks that had passed.

By this time, secretary Mia had already made all the necessary arrangements with the Nash and Cohen families, who promptly helped Minos' territory obtain the professionals required for the construction of the cultivation tower and the arena.

At this time, two people that Minos had met in Portland came to the Dry City. Of these two, one was a blacksmith, while the other was an array master.

The two had heard Minos' offers at that time, but they had refused since there was no guarantee in the words that the young Stuart had said to them.

However, the two ended up getting very curious when some of their less talented relatives came to tell them that they were interested in moving to the Black Plain.

And hearing this, obviously, the two were very shocked and tried to understand what had made their relatives think of such nonsense.

Anyway, the two found out about the quality of the food that was being sold on Stone Island, and that supposedly came from the Black Plain. With that, the two had decided to go with these relatives of them, to check if this and other information that they already heard from Minos were really true!

And when they arrived in the city, they were all very shocked by this place and decided to stay right after talking to the young Stuart for a few hours.

Anyway, although they are both specialists in missing professions in the Dry City, they were still only in the grade-1, high-level in their professions rankings. Therefore, the support they could provide was not so great at the time, to the extent that they could help Minos' forces to a great extent.

But that would differ for the average population of the Dry City. Currently, there were already many people who could buy weapons and low-level spiritual arrays in this region, so having these professionals could significantly improve the quality of life of these inhabitants.

It was also excellent for them not to import everything they wanted to buy!

After all, these products were slow to arrive and were undoubtedly more expensive, even with Minos' subsidies! i????????r????????????． ????????m

Anyway, in addition to the two specialists, Wendi had also moved to the city of Minos!

She had traveled here shortly after returning to the Maritime City to resolve the many doubts that she had on her mind.

And to Wendi's surprise, the Dry City already looked almost as good as the Maritime City and still had better opportunities, as in city government, local agriculture, in the army, a public library for any citizen to use, high-concentration spiritual foods and spiritual pills at low prices!

With all of this, even though there was still no better product offer than that of Maritime City, this place already had many advantages in relation to the place where Wendi came from!

And not only that, in the Dry City, the inhabitants only paid an annual tax of 1 low-grade crystal! That was 20 times cheaper than what she had to pay in her old city!

This value was not much when looking at just one individual. Even if he/she was low-level or even unemployed, 20 crystals per year were not much.

However, there were ten people in Wendi's family, and only 2 of them worked. And 200 crystals was already a considerable weight for people like Wendi!

With that, after seeing the changes in the Dry City, she was told not to talk to anyone about it and was welcome to bring her family here.

This was a measure to prevent rumors from spreading in the Maritime City, where there were people related to the great noble families of the Brown Kingdom.

Finally, Wendi understood very well what was to be done and soon brought her relatives here, just telling them that she had found a better place. She hadn't even told them that this place was the Dry City...
