Chapter 2112 Specialists in Dry City
After Minos left the core of dragon territory after hearing from the elders of the Dragon Tribe that they would be sending specialists to the Black Plain Empire, he returned to his state.
He had a few things to take care of outside of his state. Still, he wanted to focus on starting his experiments and studying some of the things he had gained access to on his recent travels.
Besides, someone powerful had recently reached level 100, and he'd better get back to his state as soon as possible.
Thus, after getting what he wanted on the Continent of Beasts, Minos quickly made his way to the Central Continent, where he would arrive a few hours after leaving the Dragon Spatial Kingdom.
...
Meanwhile, in Dry City...
The capital of the Black Plain Empire was more crowded than ever with high-level specialists.
In addition to Aarav, who had been living here for the past few years, Queen Sista was also there, officially visiting the Stuart family but with other interests at heart.
She had come to this city much more to meet Minos and go to his Spatial Kingdom than just to visit Sarah, her daughter-in-law.
However, upon arriving in this state a few days ago, Willow had met the four current Gods of the Spiritual World, something much more important than she had in mind!
After Makai had reached level 100, he went to the North Sea with Aurae, Vico, and Maximillian. He saw the alien hostages as well as the many alien technologies. This level 100 Sky Whale had learned from these three Gods and his tribesmen about the dire situation the Spiritual World was in. Not only that, but he had also learned how a young man who no one had paid attention to until a few decades ago had discovered the aliens and revolutionized the world.
After crossing the North Sea and giving a series of orders to his tribe, accepting the current situation and ignoring the previous war with the dragons, he came to this city together with those Gods and their respective groups.
As such, Dry City currently had 4 Gods, and several levels 97, 98, and 99 Demigods waiting for Minos to return.
Abby, Gloria, and Ruth took care of the situation in Dry City while Minos was away. Still, they hadn't decided anything of great importance in his absence.
The newest God of the Spiritual World was very impressed with the technological advances of the Black Plain Empire and wanted things that only Minos could approve. Therefore, they hadn't decided anything for the time being while they waited for the emperor's return.
Meanwhile, several experts from the continent had moved to Minos' capital.
Experts attract other experts, so as these people stayed in Dry City, more high-ranking people from the continent arrived.
Among them was a man who would only come to this place if Minos called him.
...
At one of the entrances to Dry City, which was practically within its own Spatial Kingdom, Emperor Quinn was passing by in a carriage on his way there.
Several high-ranking elders from the Western Empire were at his side, all of whom were very concerned about Minos' situation.
Few knew of Minos' agreement with Henry Quinn, but Minos had been missing for months, and with Makai's presence in Dry City, he and his group couldn't help but worry.
But as they entered the city, the old men of levels 97, 98, and 99 couldn't help but look around with interest, seeing Emperor Stuart's incredible abilities.
"Minos is really out of the ordinary. He's created a place that's almost a Spatial Kingdom, even though he's only at level 90." One of Emperor Quinn's advisors said in a very admiring tone.
Henry agreed, thinking it would be a shame if Minos couldn't reach the high level of the 10th stage before the aliens arrived. 'If it hadn't been for the short time left before their arrival, his future chances in the war of the worlds would have been much better.'
"Sigh... Anyway, Minos will play a key role in the war, either by fighting or by developing things for the alliance to benefit the world." He sighed when his men understood what he had in mind.
As they spoke, the imperial guard at the front of the carriage asked. "Where shall we go?"
"Let's go to Makai. I'll pay him my respects." Henry replied, wanting to meet Minos but already knowing that Emperor Stuart wasn't in the city.
Their group went to the imperial palace, where Makai, Vico, Maximillian, and Aurae were waiting for Minos.
Also present were Aarav, Willow, and a few other high-ranking Demigods with close ties to the empire or to those four Gods.
Minos had already sent a warning about the change in his relationship with the Western Empire, so as soon as this group stopped in front of the imperial palace, they were escorted to where the Gods were.
...
"Every day I'm amazed at the current wealth of this place," Makai commented to his tribe's number two, a level 99 Demigod standing next to him.
The two of them were on the terrace of the imperial palace, where he had been staying for the past few days, from where he could see the entire Dry City.
From there, he could see the daily innovations being produced locally, things completely different from what he had considered normal before he began his previous seclusion.
The Demigod beside Makai sighed and said. "The aliens have brought a revolution to the world. Whatever the outcome of the war of worlds, we will never be the same again."
"That seems to be the case... But why is this young human's group so advanced?" Makai asked curiously. "What is different about them? Why do they achieve things that even elves have trouble with? Don't you find it strange?"
"Yes, it is strange. But Minos' abilities are extraordinary. I think it all has to do with his physique and his innate ability." The Demigod was right. "If I'm right, we won't be able to get much from him. At most, we can get the secrets they've already unlocked. But we will never develop new things ourselves, which will guarantee Minos a position ahead of all the world's powers in the future". Such a being foresaw what would happen and thought the same as the groups of other Gods had already noticed.
"That's a problem," Makai commented to his man, not wanting to be outdone after working so hard to reach level 100.
He wanted to win the war against the aliens and secure an even better position for his people in the aftermath. However, this would be very difficult if Minos continued to grow.
He would have to do something about Minos if he wanted to fulfill his old wishes!
