The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 2483  Opportunity for Action 

While Minos and his group were planning their moves, their enemies were doing the same!

In an important area of the inner city, Jembei stood next to a group of high-ranking Sovereigns, old enemies of Minos or not.

Around the strange living room, with different decorations and seats to accommodate beings of completely different races, six individuals between levels 110 and 113 were seriously discussing the subject of Minos.

"According to my group's observations, Minos has well understood the subliminal message of the punishment missions his group received. He and his people want to complete their missions in the Magma Barrens first." Jembei said with a smile on his scaly face.

"We will deal with them during this mission!" He added.

"Won't that be risky?" The weakest of these high-ranking Sovereigns asked. "If they understand this is a trap, won't it be a counter-weapon on their part?"

"Certainly." Jembei agreed with this ally's point, even though his plans went against it. "However, we can't deny the great opportunity of having almost all of them together in the Magma Barrens. Our plans were to use their punishment missions to eliminate them. But we can't rule out the possibility that shit will happen and our plans will fail. Our last chance should be the Magma Barrens, so throwing away the chance to deal with almost all of them there might also be a mistake."

"What if they have something to protect themselves with?" This uncertain level 110 alien insisted.

The strongest there, a jelly-like level 113 alien, voiced his opinion. "Suppose they really have something to rely on. So what? We're stronger, and we're the ones who chose the place to fight. If they really have their methods, we can still retreat and use their separate missions to achieve our goal.

But if we eliminate Minos now, everything will be easier. That's why I vote we go ahead with Jembei's plan." "I can agree if you agree to test them before we act." The cautious man said. "Let's send one of the Magma Barrens monsters after them before we show ourselves.

Even if they have a card up their sleeve, it will signal what we need to watch out for and weaken them for us."

"We can do that." Jembei agreed, looking at the others and seeing that no one else had questions about it.

"Since everyone agrees with my plans, let's get ready to go after Minos' group. I've already set up a teleportation formation for that area, so we'll be able to get there long before them to prepare the ground."

"Perfect."

"That's good enough for me."

"How many allies will we have in this confrontation? Will it be just the six of us?" A level 112 individual asked.

"Besides us, Efrof will also go to the Magma Barrens." Jembei told the group the nof another level 112 Sovereign.

"What about the others? Won't the General join us?" The strongest of them asked.

"The General's work is expensive. You know how costly it is to get him to move. I want to keep him as a last weapon against Minos. If the damned human proves capable of withstanding our joint attack, the General will be our next weapon."

As members of the sfaction, they all knew how important it was to avoid unnecessary costs to the group. No matter how many merit points and Qilnats they had, it would be a waste to use their most powerful weapon against Minos!

Everyone agreed to the terms Jembei explained before ending today's meeting.

As he bid farewell to his fellow faction members, Jembei greeted one of his subordinates.

"The General is waiting for you in the next room." The subordinate said before adding. "I also received this letter from Inze."

Jembei took the letter from his subordinate and skimmed its contents while he went into another room.

"Maximilian is leaving us? But didn't the previous news say that Minos had left his faction, and that they were estranged?" Jembei narrowed his eyes, not quite understanding this reaction.

"That is the case, boss. I also expected Maximilian to take a stand against Minos under these circumstances, but it seems he wants to stay away from both sides."

Listening to his subordinate's opinion, Jembei thought of a possibility. "Does he think our chances of winning and losing are similar?"

"If he thinks that, then his behavior makes sense. If you are not sure which side will win in a confrontation, it is indeed better to stay away from both sides," Jembei's subordinate said.

"Tsk! Monitor Minos' group. While I'm gone, I want every one of his relatives to be watched by our people."

"Yeah, I'll take care of it."

As soon as he heard this, Jembei entered the other room of his faction's headquarters and ran into the level 114 General allied with his group.

"Are you planning to act against Minos?" The general tried to guess what Jembei must have been doing to make him wait a minute.

"Indeed." Jembei smiled at his superior before he said. "This human is difficult to deal with. I didn't expect him to reverse the situation we put him in so easily." "I was also surprised to hear how he reversed the loss of his previous data. He's quite competent. We can't deny that. Anyway, when do you plan to take action against him?"

Jembei made no secret of it. "As soon as he leaves the guild, my men and I will go after him to settle this once and for all. Minos is a monster, so there's no point in giving him time.

However, General, I would like to make a request of you, just in case my plans don't work out as well as I had hoped."

"Oh? Are you having second thoughts?" The man narrowed his eyes.

"No, I'm just being cautious. If I can't handle him the way I planned, I hope I can count on your help for the next foreign missions Minos goes on. Don't worry about his allies. You'll just have to deal with him." Jembei warned this important resource of his faction.

"If that's the case, I'll keep my schedule free to move if you fail."

"I thank the General. Once we've dealt with this nuisance, we can move forward more powerful and influential than ever." Jembei clenched his fists and spoke with determination and confidence.

Minos was an old enemy of his, but more importantly, this human was known and respected by many guild internal members. Killing Minos could be an important step for someone who wanted to becthe guild's Chief Commander one day!
