The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Hours after the ambush in the Maritime City began, the actions planned earlier by Minos and his soldiers were finally being put into practice!

Even before the conflict in that city began, Angela had sent crows with letters that basically said that the attack on that place would have begun by the time they were received.

And since those letters had been sent to the secret army bases in Yellow City, City of Waters, and the headquarters, the soldiers and allies in those places had quickly prepared themselves to make the subsequent attacks.

The plan of the Black Plain Army was to deal with the leaders of the enemy groups in the vicinity of those two cities as soon as they received notification of the start of the conflict in that city.

And even if they couldn't act instantly to the confrontation in that place, it wouldn't make that much difference to them. After all, regional communication was not so practical to do, and it would definitely take the enemy side more time to find out what had happened than it would take them to act.

With that, everything was within the ideal time of action for these subsequent attacks!

...

In the vicinity In the vicinity of the City of Water...

In a region where the semi-arid area of the Black Plain mixed with the undergrowth of that northernmost part of the Cromwell Kingdom, 12 Spiritual Kings was crouched and silent in that area.

They were watching a great camp that was a few kilometers away from there, where thousands of people could be seen from afar watching or doing typical activities in that place.

"Miss Elena, when will we act?" One of those Spiritual Kings asked the leader of that attack group, Lieutenant Elena.

That was obviously the group that would attack this enemy outpost near the City of Waters, where Elena was the temporary leader of the local secret base.

In the period that she had been in this place, Elena had managed to level up once, having reached level 51, enough for her to have the minimum aptitudes necessary to lead this mission.

In any case, surrounding her were eleven Spiritual Kings, eight of them coming from the Hayes family and three from House Cohen, those individuals who were in Dry City with Todd.

That was the group formed to attack the specialists in that enemy camp, where there were 9 Spiritual Kings from the Counter-Revolutionary Army.

Elena then answered the previous question while still observing the surroundings. "Wait a little longer... Our soldiers are almost ready."

Obviously, they could not simply run towards that place with thousands of enemies, enough to end their lives. As such, they were waiting for the action of Minos' soldiers and weaker subordinates of the Hayes family in the surrounding area to start the conflict, entertaining the thousands of Spiritual Generals here.

And knowing this, Elena was observing the surroundings with a unique array, waiting for the signal from the soldiers so that her group could start this mission at the ideal moment.

But it wasn't long before she received the signal that everything was ready!

"Time for action, guys!" She said in a serious tone as she stood up and prepared to start running.

...

On the other hand, in a specific village east of Dry City.

This place that previously the soldiers of the Black Plain Army had seen Urban dying, that individual who had managed to leak information from that territory to House Silva, had significantly changed.

After several months since that incident and then the passage of the troops previously sent by the Silva family to the Black Plain, several locals had left this village.

But for those who had stuck around, today they lived in a place that had essentially turned into a small base of the Counter-Revolutionary Army.

Consequently, these people's lives were no longer as peaceful as before.

And the leader of this place couldn't help but feel at a significant loss in all this.

"Tsk!"

'That old man was truly right... The death of that person here starts a cycle of bad things for our village.' The local leader thought about this, remembering the owner of a local establishment who had fled from here soon after the Silva family troops had passed in the vicinity.

But while he was thinking about this, sitting in one of the Brown family's Counter-Revolutionary Army tents, the Miller family members in this place were taking care of their business with this village leader's team.

They needed to ensure the supply of resources, after all.

Hence, even if this individual was only the leader of this small village, these people from Minos' enemy army needed to discuss things with him every day.

And naturally, he couldn't help but reflect on his loss of autonomy.

Anyway, while this person was dealing with his village's changes in the last few months, a group of Spiritual Kings from the Miller family was talking in low voices next to that tent.

"When should things develop around here?" One of them asked, without saying anything too obvious.

Another person then said. "Last night, I saw an unusual 'star' in the sky, so I guess things will develop sooner than we imagined..."

"You mean that this..."

"Yes, I think so..."

"Well, let's prepare for it for the sake of our forces!"

"But are our forces already prepared?"

"Hmm, since we came here, I had already made it clear for them to always be prepared. In these days of the war, we cannot falter." The strongest one there commented.

And just at that moment, one of the other Spiritual King who was in this village, someone who was a member of another noble family in the Brown Kingdom, walked in there and overheard that last part of the conversation.

"You are right, Nigel. We have to be prepared to act at any moment!" He said in satisfaction at hearing that his companions were taking all this very seriously. "These Dry City rebels are very tricky and can act at any moment."

"So, the best thing we can do for the kingdom is to be prepared to act at any moment!"

"Hmm, are your Sutton family members ready?" One of those individuals from House Miller asked seriously, not letting his evil thoughts against such an organization apparent.

"Of course!"

"We are more than alert. Our men even sleep with one eye open just to make sure..." He said in good humor, even though he talked about something serious.

"I hope so..." The same person from before commented, as he saw experts from other families of this state join them.

'Hmm, this will be a good opportunity for us to diminish the power of House Sutton a bit...' He pondered, as he remembered that now that the Silva family would suffer tremendously from Minos' actions, it was only a matter of days before this other organization would take over as the third position of power in this state.

It would be interesting if such an organization began its accession with losses!

...

On the other hand, while the people from the Miller family in that camp continued to prepare for the conflict that could happen at any moment, troops coming from Dry City were not far away from that place.

Such a group was composed of soldiers and members of the Gill family, who were here to simulate the modus operandi of Minos' allies and subordinates who would attack the enemy's main posts. But as opposed to a brutal, deadly fight, they would generally fight a more or less mock battle in this place.

After all, it might be strange if only this place was not attacked when the other three had been.

But even though it was an action to show the Brown family that Minos was trying to destroy everyone who tried to invade the Black Plain, these people were not going to take it lightly!

When fighting against the Miller family members, they would exchange hands. But against the other people in this place, they would do everything to eliminate some of them.

So, the largest group that had left Dry City was in the vicinity of this camp, preparing to act.

...

While soldiers and members of the Gill family were waiting for the right moment to attack that post operated by the Miller family, Minos' group was preparing to act in the vicinity of the Yellow City!

At this moment, he and 15 Spiritual Kings were already in the vicinity of the enemy post, where Otis Silva and many members of his family were.

The time had finally come for these predestined enemies to meet!
