Chapter 1909 The Origin of Minos' Resources?
"Is that true, Minos?" The level 91 woman from the Sea Folk asked as she narrowed her eyes and looked at that fox.
Minos said that on purpose, to prove to all these creatures the value of being at his side. Not only did he want witnesses and interested beings to join their journey to ensure the group was powerful enough to travel back and forth from the North Sea, but he also wanted more high-ranking members in his state.
Since a chaotic era was about to hit the entire Spiritual World, many problems that could affect the future growth of the Black Plain Empire might hit it in a short time.
If he didn't prepare himself even better, Minos was aware that the chances of his people continuing to progress would diminish.
This could mean a decrease in the pace of development of the Black Plain Empire or even a delay in preparing his people for the threat Henricus Longus predicted.
To avoid this, he wanted to attract beings on this journey not only to risk themselves with him in exploring the North Sea but also to join his empire as members of his forces, not just as external allies.
He said. "What I've been offering you these past weeks, months, is what I've been offering Kyla since she was born.
With the best resources and enough peace for her to take advantage of opportunities, I helped her reach the 9th stage even though she was young and had little time to cultivate.
But don't be surprised. There are several cases like Kyla's on my side. Just look at my wives." He said as he waved at two of his four wives. "Abby and Ruth were just a Spiritual Warrior and a Spiritual General when I started my relationship with them back when we were between 16 and 19. But a little over 50 years later, they are both Spiritual Sages, just like me.
I also have a few disciples in my empire who I saw begin their cultivation, and they are currently at levels 73 and 74." Minos remembered Lee and Alison.
Gloria saw the impressed looks on the faces of her group and the newly arrived foxes. She said. "My husband is very generous with those who are committed to the same cause as us. We currently have a few dozen elders at the end of the 9th stage whom we are training to become Demigods in the next decade."
She looked at the group Minos had gathered so far and said. "Although we are gathering you to join our journey to the North Sea, we will also have people from our empire join us. We won't be relying solely on friendly forces, although we greatly appreciate the courage of all of you and also of those who are yet to join us."
"How are you doing that?" The arctic whale over there asked, looking at Minos.
"Well, I'm the emperor of a state with over 3 billion people and hundreds of millions of beasts. On top of that, I have alliances with half of the Central Continent and have had my own random encounters." Minos said as he looked at Blake, who could prove it.
"It's true... Young Minos received an inheritance from a level 100 dragon." The fox said, but almost everyone there heard him.
It wasn't enough to explain how Minos had managed to raise Kyla and the various others he mentioned. Still, the fact that he was an emperor of such a large and influential state helped those beings to understand.
Supporting a few individuals like Kyla wasn't impossible. As long as you put a large part of your resources into just a few individuals and give them a chance to train in peace, achieving what he had achieved with these people was not impossible.
Considering other possible chance encounters Minos might have had over the years and the wealth of the enemies he had surely defeated, there was enough in his history to justify the origin of the resources he had now, but also in the past.
"Impressive." One of the elders of the Nine-Tailed Fox tribe looked at Kyla, wondering how lucky this young fox had been.
Meanwhile, the level 75 fox couldn't help but stare in shock at this level 80 being, who he thought was much more experienced than him.
'Is that all?' He wondered how young Kyla was.
Blake looked at Emlyn and said. "Well, how nice of you to find someone as good as young Minos. I'm sure your journey was much better with him than it would have been anywhere else or with any other companions."
"Hmm, I was lucky, elder." She said, happy for all that had happened to her.
"Anyway, welcome to our tribe. I'm sorry for the way you were received earlier. We didn't expect to see you here so soon and with such a strong group." Blake said as he waved in the direction of the nearby city.
"We were fortunate to have the support of Sanctuary Of Visions. Without the support of the Sea Folk, it would have taken a lot longer and been a lot harder to get a group like this together." Minos said, giving all the credit for reaching the Continent of Beasts so quickly with such a strong group to the elder who had welcomed him to the land capital of the Marine Empire.
Without his support, the group would not have been able to get the three envoys from the Sea Folk, which would have prevented them from having easy access to the tribe of the Fish People and the Krakens.
As they talked about it, with Minos telling these foxes and his wives part of his journey, the three Sea Folk members were naturally pleased to see him give credit to Sanctuary Of Visions.
Meanwhile, they quickly made their way to the inner city, where they would soon see the home of the Nine-Tailed Foxes, a beautiful place where creatures of this race could be seen by the thousands.
Emlyn was able to revisit her old city, while Kyla saw the home of her people for the first time in her life, eager to get to know the area and explore the city.
The members of Minos' crew were also eager to get to know the place, as this was also a voyage of discovery for several of them.
So, while Minos and the group's most important members accompanied the foxes, part of the group split off to explore the city in the company of representatives of that tribe.
