Chapter 2597 Supreme Leader


    "Supreme Leader, I''m afraid the current situation on the continent requires your attention. There is some good news, but the scenario is still disturbing enough for me to upset you." The level 122 elder gestured with his hands and looked suggestively into the snake''s eyes.


    "Who is causing trouble?" The white snake with four green eyes, small despite its cultivation, asked with a touch of curiosity.


    The First Elder was very reserved in his actions. He was one of the strongest in Oqia, and he wasn''t the type to be fooled. If he was there, he surely had troublesome targets in mind.


    "Jabez, leader of the Firestone Mines. He recently reached level 123 and has shown his true colors. He has started a war with us, the Aspiring Thugs, the Bitter Predators, and the Ebonbrows. He wants to take over the continent and drive us out of Zocarro," said the First Elder.


    "Oh? Has he made progress? Then that''s really worrying. This guy has always been arrogant and full of hatred for us aliens. You want me to deal with him, right? What about this war? How much has the guild lost so far?"


    "Not much. Despite everything, we have outperformed our enemies. We''re not in afortable position with the leaders of the forces involved, but our men have done a great job. In particr, an interesting man appeared in our forces during the cultivation of the guild leader."


    The Supreme Leader listened with curiosity and couldn''t help but ask. "Who is he? You look impressed, old friend. You don''t look like that often."


    "Indeed. His name is Minos Stuart. He..." The Elder summed up some of Minos'' greatest achievements and characteristics.


    "That sounds like a good seed. Is he just a Senior Officer? That identity doesn''t fit someone in his position. He should be a General by now," the guild''s Supreme Leader said as he transformed his body into a humanoid version. He bes a 1.7 meter tall man with long white hair, a beard, and a mustache of the same color.


    "Since he started experimenting with the ck liquid from the ck Heart Mission, no guild General has been killed in battle. There are no openings for promotion in the upper echelons at the moment." The First Elder exined. "However, we can solve this problem by creating a new order under Minos''mand."


    "What do you have in mind?"


    "Minos wants to go to Uzira. We can create a new order to bemanded by the General of the Expansion. He will have his own group and be involved in whatever is necessary to get the guild to that continent."


    The Supreme Leader was surprised to hear that a mere Sovereign wanted to make the journey across the Violent Sea. "He wants to do that? Why? At the level he''s at, he can easily grow to the 12th stage by being on our continent."


    "Ambition, fear, need. Anything could be his motivation, Supreme Leader. But we''re interested in his goal. If he''s willing to take the risks of the journey, why not take advantage of it?" The elder approached the white-haired man, his gaze fixed on the face of his boss.


    "I didn''t wake you just for that. I''m going to die soon, but I don''t want to die in a bed or a cultivation room. Since we are at war, I want to use my parasite onest time and contribute to the guild. Perhaps this will help you and my brothers get closer to the Upper Realm."


    "Juma, you..."


    "It''s already decided. There''s nothing more to discuss, Supreme Leader." Juma closed his eyes, having lived long enough to fear death and with no prospect of prolonging his existence.


    Even though he was at the peak of level 122, he would have to reach level 125 to prolong his vitality. But it was absolutely impossible for him to achieve that in the few centuries he had left.


    "Part of our meeting today is for you to set the guild in order and take advantage of the opportunities that my sacrifice will provide.


    Promote Kaus to the position of Elder that I will leave, and then promote Segiel to Chief Commander.


    Use Abby Miller as a General alongside Minos Stuart and strengthen our goals to reach the Upper Realm," the First Elder said in a louder tone.


    He looked again at his leader, whom he had helped to be the greatest and most important member of the guild, by advising him to join the force over 200,000 years ago. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    The guild leader looked at Juma in silence, regretting that this man was so close to dying. However, Juma''s point was valid. It was preferable to sacrifice his life and use the extensive knowledge and experience he had umted over hundreds of thousands of years to benefit the guild, rather than perishing during the process of cultivation or while resting.


    "Perhaps this Abby Miller can bring you back? The discoveries you''ve made seem quite interesting." The guild leader considered the possibility.


    Juma folded his hands and said, "That would be nice. But I''m not worried about that right now. But if you want to bring me back, Ji, that''s the way to do it. Help Minos Stuart and Abby Miller, and if all goes well, when they be Supreme and get more of the ck liquid in Uzira, you can bring me back to life so that we can reach level 125 together!"


    Hearing this name, which he hadn''t heard from other people since he had be the Supreme Leader of the guild, Ji epted the rmendations of his friend and great advisor.


    "All right." He sighed. "Let''s do what you suggested. Hopefully, this Minos Stuart will live up to your expectations."


    "I''m counting on it, Supreme Leader. My very existence depends on it. Literally." The old First Elderughed as he made his good-humoredment.


    "There is only one thing to monitor, Supreme Leader." Juma added, now speaking more seriously. "Navey has his eye on Minos. I don''t know exactly what he wants, but we have to consider it."


    "Why should Elder Navey have his eye on him? Can you think of a reason?" Ji narrowed his eyes, aware that Navey was no simpleton, even if he was two levels weaker than him.


    Navey had always been a great mystery, an alien with high abilities but who rarely moved. For him to show interest in Minos might not be a big deal—after all, Minos was really impressive—but it was strange.


    "I am not sure what it is. But even before Minos showed his abilities alongside Abby Miller, Elder Navey had his eye on the boy. If we want to use the human to get to level 125, it will be important to monitor Navey."


    "All right. I''ll keep that in mind. I''ll try not to look suspicious while I investigate what Navey is up to."


    "Sigh... That''s all I needed to hear to ease my mind about leaving." Juma looked ahead, imagining what the future would be like.


    Cultivation was difficult. The chances of reaching his position were practically zero, and 99.99% of those who tried died in the middle of their journey. Between being reborn and returning to the world through the powers of the ck liquid and Abby, he honestly preferred the second option—the one where he could return to his current level and get stronger more easily!
