Chapter 2012 Minos' Worries
Days after the confrontation of Minos' group with the robot of the enemy forces...
Their group had set sail again after the previous battle, this time without any problems with the storms and extreme natural phenomena that made the North Sea famous.
Of course, the North Sea itself had strange phenomena, as it was an area rich in spiritual energy but also an extreme part of the Spiritual World.
But much of what was currently happening in this region, and what made this place so famous, was caused by enemy formations created by the people of the Mechanic Empire hundreds of years ago when they arrived in this world.
Before the arrival of the space explorers from the Mechanic Empire, the intensity of the natural phenomena in the area had already worsened by several degrees due to changes in the region.
As Minos knew, the world was 'alive' and wasn't just a big stable rock. It went through unique processes, such as continental drift and ice ages. Its movements could cause areas to become stronger or weaker, increase or decrease the intensity of phenomena, and so on.
However, the technological level of the people of the Mechanic Empire was so high they could even control the intense natural phenomena of this region, easily manipulating them to become more or less stable at will.
As a people capable of mastering their solar system itself, it was easy for them to master the natural phenomena of the North Sea!
When they used their formations to 'close' the escape route from the North Sea a few days ago, the people of the Mechanic Empire had left the way open for Minos' group and their own groups to travel through that sea region without danger.
Because of this, the Minos group's journey was easier than they had expected after the previous confrontation, and they moved faster than they had previously estimated.
At that time, they were about one-third of the way to the secret base of the Mechanic Empire in this region.
They didn't know exactly where they were going, but they knew they had to go to the depths of this region, where it would be more difficult for a group like theirs to reach the ideal place to build a base.
As they moved, tense with the possibility of being attacked at any moment, everyone in the crew was ready to fight if necessary.
With the group's wounded people having recovered from the previous battle with the help of Minos' pills and other resources, everyone was 100% at their best for the moment!
Meanwhile, Minos stood on the deck of his ship and looked out at the vast sea before him, thinking about what might happen in the next few days.
'I think there are two possibilities ahead. The first is that the enemy will attack us to test our strength and then send a group capable of destroying us. The second is that they are preparing for an all-out confrontation in the heart of their territory.
Minos knew the enemies had watched the confrontation between his group and the previous robot. From what he could see of the special circles of the controllers of that area, as well as the powers of that mechanical being, the enemies had almost total control over the North Sea.
They controlled the natural effects, the accessible places, but also the entire sea.
To give you an idea, there were practically no conscious living beings in the waters they sailed.
For thousands of cubic kilometers of sea, there wasn't even a single conscious living being.
The only living things were types of algae and marine vegetation in general. Apart from these sea creatures and animals without the ability to think, there was practically no life in the gigantic North Sea.
With this in mind, Minos was sure they were being watched, and the enemy could act against them at any time.
In that case, they would either test him soon enough to deal with them properly, or they would be waiting for them at the place they had chosen to confront them.
From his point of view, the second alternative looked more promising for the enemies and worse for his group.
lightsΝοvel.cοm 'If they do what I would do, that's bad.' Minos pondered. 'We won't have a chance to test their powers a bit more while those bastards can set a trap for us.'
Luring the enemy to a place already prepared for battle was one of the best ways to deal with a problem. Controlling the terrain in a battle was of immense importance!
Since his group hadn't been attacked in the last few days, Minos believed the second possibility would happen, although he didn't rule out the other alternative.
'Now that they've seen how I destroyed the armor's defenses, they'll probably be more careful next time.' Minos thought, not ruling out the possibility that the first enemy attack had already been a test of their strength for the enemy preparing to destroy them.
Either way, he was looking forward to exploring the North Sea.
'The powers of that armor were too challenging. The creature felt no pain and didn't seem to be afraid of many things that living beings were afraid of. At the same time, if it was an artificial life form, then there was a possibility there were countless beings like it.
If that were the case, then the Spiritual World would be lost!
Even if they could be defeated, those creatures would be able to turn this world upside down if they had a large number of them on their side.'
"Sigh..." He sighed as he thought about the possibilities ahead, somewhat pessimistically.
When he came to the North Sea, Minos hadn't imagined encountering such formidable enemies!
The level of the enemies didn't scare him, but their ingenious methods and strangeness did.
Who in the entire world could replicate what the enemy group had done in the North Sea?
Absolutely nobody!
Even though some powers in this world were mighty and had powerful cultivators on their side, none of them could control such a large area.
Even the Dragon Tribe occasionally had to deal with brave beings invading their land because the tribe couldn't protect its entire territory.
But the North Sea was many times larger than their territory!
If the enemy's technology was so advanced, it might be much harder to deal with them than Minos had imagined!
He wasn't afraid of dying on this journey, but he was worried about the future. If he had to face the Gods of this race, as Henricus Longus had predicted, he didn't know if the Spiritual World would hold out!
'I hope he was wrong. Otherwise, we're in an alarming situation!'
