The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2416  Back in The Red Expanse 

While the 100 contestants who would be returning to their world in 50 more years picked up their pace inside the pyramid in The Red Expanse, Minos' relatives had gone through many experiences in his absence.

With around 400 years having passed for Minos in the dimension of the Celestial being, his children, wives and allies had lived in The Enchanted Realm for just over 41 years!

In particular, over 25 years had passed since Kendrick's advancement to level 100, enough time for the group to develop considerably!

...

Somewhere in The Enchanted Realm, where the headquarters of Banished Crossfire was located, part of Minos' group was at the headquarters of this sect.

In particular, the group was amid a recent problem deeply connected to the sect's disputes!

Kendrick was standing next to his two sisters and the robot, facing an elder from Banished Crossfire, who had just brought them news of the other part of the group.

Three years ago, the three women of Minos and the three strongest Sovereigns of the team had set off on a mission in an area far from the headquarters, a long and dangerous mission.

After six months of no news, today was the first time that Kendrick and the rest of the group were coming across new information.

"Elder, what happened? Why don't you just tell us what you came to talk about?" Kendrick asked in a nervous tone.

Even though he was currently at level 103, he couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw the worried expression on the face of that level 109 old elder.

"Young master, I'm afraid their Excellencies' group has fallen into a trap set by the Blood Squad." The local native old man said to the three siblings with concern in his voice.

"The Blood Squad?" Lily asked as she clenched her fists and released her level 102 aura.

Even Hollie couldn't help but feel the gravity of the matter, feeling the urge to release her energies of a level 101 Sovereign.

"What exactly happened, elder?" Asked the level 106 robot, who had only advanced once in the last 24 years, given the difficulty of doing so in The Enchanted Realm.

The Enchanted Realm made it possible for even level 114 Sovereigns to emerge on the planet. But reaching that level locally was more difficult than reaching level 99 in the Spiritual World before the War of the Worlds.

The first advances in the 11th stage could be quick for beings with resources, talents and ambition. But after reaching the middle of the 11th stage, each advance became more difficult and slower.

The strongest of the group that Minos left behind was at level 106, with four individuals at that level of cultivation—if Ruth, her three companions, Gloria and Abby were still alive...

Ruth was at level 105 until her last update, while Gloria and Abby were at level 103. Unlike Kendrick, who had been given many opportunities, had the chance to stay at headquarters to cultivate and had a talent similar to his father's, these women had been involved in many affairs over the years and had not progressed as quickly as he had.

Right now they were somewhere in danger, while he was at his sect headquarters.

The level 109 Sovereign said to that robot. "Sigh! We have little information. But the place where their Excellencies' group was using as a secret outpost has been raided. Our men checked the situation there a month ago and found this."

He showed the fabric with a special stitching mark, which everyone there knew was a type of clothing technology used in this world only by the Blood Squad.

"Why would they kidnap our mothers?" Hollie asked as she looked at the level 106 robot. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Just then, Callie and Vico entered the place, having been told that an elder would be there to talk to the group about Abby and the others.

"Kendrick, what's the situation?" Vico asked as soon as he entered the young master's area, his level 104 cultivation clear and potent.

Callie was at level 103, having had a good chance, but not as good as the one Kendrick had.

She saw the cloth being held by Kendrick and frowned. "The Blood Squad?"

The Blood Squad was a group of local natives who had turned against the forces of The Enchanted Realm and betrayed their world to ally themselves with the forces of The Blossom World.

According to reports, this traitorous sect had left The Enchanted Realm 4 years ago to join the galactic battles taking place between the forces involved in the war of worlds in this area of the universe. However, now the Banished Crossfire group seemed to have indications that the organization had not completely left the planet.

"Were our six companions taken by The Blood Squad?" Vico asked the sect elder standing there with his companions and Kendrick's squire.

"That seems to be the case. Our group of investigators have just discovered it. The sect will lead a mission to search for our missing members, but some of our experts already fear that their Excellencies have been taken off-planet." The elder said in consternation.

He and his group didn't understand how, but The Blossom World had found out about Kendrick's existence and his divine powers. Since then, several attacks on the young man's group had taken place and, now with this kidnapping, the old man couldn't help but fear what would happen in the future.

His enemies would surely use Kendrick's family to blackmail him!

The elder's fear was that this blackmail would work!

"Where were they taken?" Kendrick asked as he crushed the cloth in his hands. "I will open a portal to the world they are in!"

"Young master, you must calm down. What the enemy wants most is to destabilize us. One ill-considered action could do more harm than good." The elder said as he gestured for Kendrick to sit down. "We'll let the sect's experts confirm what the situation is. Even though we're at war, it's possible to create a line of communication."

"Do it as soon as possible. If anything happens to my mother, I'll go to The Blossom World!"
