The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 805 The Battle Of Dry City: Results

As the sounds of sirens blared in that area, indicating the withdrawal of the Counter-Revolutionary Army forces, Celeste arrived at Minos and Angela's side.

"What happened? Why is the enemy retreating so soon?" She asked, happy for this result, but of course, full of doubts.

Upon hearing this, Minos noticed the body on that woman's shoulder but did not question anything about it.

It was not his place to question the intimate affairs of one of his soldiers. And as that person had been captured, Minos had one less enemy in those Brown family forces, which was already as good as the death of an enemy Spiritual King.

And so, he did not waste time in useless questioning. Instead, he just went straight to the point and answered that woman's question. "It seems that King Brown is not willing to lose more of his people without having the chance to eliminate me."

"Oh?"

"He saw me teleporting, so he is probably scared, afraid that even if he won the conflict, I would still run away and put him at risk."

Minos laughed and said. "At least that's what I think he was thinking in ordering this retreat..."

"He saw you teleporting? Won't that be problematic?"

Upon hearing Celeste's question, Angela could not help but look thoughtfully at Minos, having the same doubt as that brown-haired woman.

Minos then replied. "Don't worry, he doesn't have enough power to understand that, nor does he even have the knowledge to make troubling theories."_{pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ}

"He'll probably think that's some kind of high-level ability."

Minos was right not to worry. After all, information about Spatial Kingdoms was confidential. Apart from those organizations that had these cultivation sanctuaries in their possession, very few knew about information like that in this vast Spiritual World.

And it was not for nothing. Spatial Kingdoms were regions created by Gods. The method of accessing them depended on the existence of a 'door' left by its creator or a specially made teleportation item.

But the Spatial Kingdom inherited by Minos did not have a 'door,' and the ring that gave him access to that region of space was a powerful high-level grade-4 artifact!

Thus, it would be impossible for Thomas to decipher the truth behind Minos' teleportation.

And in trying to find answers to Minos' unique capability, that man would probably think of abilities or techniques to explain such a thing.

Perhaps young Stuart had an extremely rare ability, teleportation. But it could be something else, such as a skill that gives him the ability to conceal flows of spiritual energy. With an ability similar to that, it would not be impossible to hide the 'marks' left by small arrays, techniques, etc.

And that was only some of the various possibilities to explain what Thomas had seen and felt.

Consequently, the young Stuart did not feel concerned about it, at least not in the same way as Celeste and Angela.

"The problem will be that from now on, I will no longer be underestimated by my enemies." _{pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴoᴠᴇʟ}

"That will be the big problem we will have to face!" He thoughtfully said as he considered the decisive way in which that person had chosen to withdraw from the battlefield.

'Damn it!'

'Now, even if I advance in the next few days, I don't know if I'll be able to kill that person in a short time!' He thought about it quickly as he watched his enemies getting further and further away from that spot.

Anyway, after hearing what was worrying young Stuart the most right now, those two women could not help but agree with him.

Being strong was not everything!

And considering that it would still take a while before Minos was a monster impossible to be contained by regional forces alone, their time would not necessarily be easy.

There were methods for dealing with stronger people. In fact, Minos' own army used training focused on one of these possibilities, which enemies could use sooner or later.

As such, those two could not help but worry about it!

...

Some time had passed since the enemy withdrawal from that area east of Dry City. _{ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ​ꪶ​}

pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴoᴠᴇʟ In the meantime, all the individuals who had fought alongside the Dry City forces in that area had either returned or been taken back to the area protected by the dome.

Some had died, and many had been significantly injured to the point that just a few days of rest would not be enough for their recoveries.

But they had won the battle, generated thousands of losses for the enemy side, protected this city where the families of most of those involved were and drove back the enemies!

Consequently, after collecting all the enemy belongings, as well as destroying those corpses, the many involved in that great battle led by Minos had returned in satisfaction.

Today they had defended Dry City. Withstood a siege of tens of thousands of Spiritual Generals, many Spiritual Kings, one of whom was one of the strongest individuals in this region!

That was impressive!

Not long ago, Dry City barely had any Spiritual Generals. And even after the arrival of Minos and all the local development, many of the soldiers still had doubts about the viability of young Stuart's war project.

They wanted to fight for this place since this was already home to many of them and where they could grow stronger. But that did not change the fact that many of them had their doubts about their chances.

However, with the result on the east side of the wall today, many previously doubtful soldiers were already much more confident about the future.

'At the very least, we are a match for them!' Many of them had thought something similar.

With that result, it was not long before the other two groups, the one led by the patriarch Gill and the other by an elder Stokes, joined Minos' group in Dry City.

One of them had had the most straightforward battle of the day, the one that had taken place on the south side of the wall, where the attack led by the patriarch of the Miller family had come from.

On the other hand, Liam Gill's group had suffered greatly. However, it had been the one with the best results in terms of killing enemy specialists!

In any case, all the groups had used similar strategies at the beginning of the fight, while during the battles, the final and most chaotic part of it, the results of the three groups had differed.

All the enemies had retreated in the end, as Thomas' warning had alerted far beyond just his group. But it was undeniable that the losses and gains of each of the groups had been distinct, something Minos needed to hear from each of his representatives.

...

Dry City General Hospital.

The hospital in this city was still crowded, not only because of the battle of a few hours ago but also because of the wounded coming from the Maritime City weeks ago.

In any case, in this place that had become accustomed to functioning beyond maximum capacity, the many wounded soldiers were already under care in the many corridors of this place.

On the other hand, Minos and the group of Spiritual Kings were on one of the upper floors of that building, talking about the results of the Dry City battle and/or receiving medical treatment.

"So, Liam, tell me what happened to your group..." Minos said as he looked at that man, just after finding out that of the 29 opponents in the Miller family group, 8 of them had perished at the hands of his forces.

"Well, for starters, we suffered quite a bit..." Patriarch Gill began to speak this, sad for his group's losses.

"To kill 15 of the 33 opponents at the 6th stage of that group, we lost 4 of our own."

"They all belonged to my Gill family..."

"Oh? That's a shame..." Minos commented sincerely.

"As for the Spiritual Generals, we lost 2,000 of ours to eliminate 13,000 of theirs."

"So, that's what happened..."

"Your group suffered quite a bit in that battle, Liam."

"But I can see that you fought with vigor and managed to protect the north side of the wall even though you were facing the group of the supreme elder of the Brown family."ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ nov????l(f)ire

"In that way, I will not forget your losses!" Minos said this, lamenting in his heart for his city's losses today.
