Chapter 2616 War News (2)


    "Aside from your promotions, it''s important that you understand how the war is going now," the Supreme Leader said as he looked at the former Commander who was now the Tenth Elder.


    Tenth Elder Kaus said to the three, "First Elder Juma did not die in vain. As unfortunate as his death is, and we don''t know what the future holds, he has guaranteed us a great opportunity.


    Not only did he eliminate 22 Supremes that day, an important feat that reduced the number of our enemies, but he also revealed to us the enemy leader''s method of sacrifice and gave us seven victories that day."


    "While First Elder Juma was attacking the enemy leaders, seven of our brothers from the Council, along with the Supreme corpses and some Generals promoted to the 12th stage, led our troops in destroying seven important enemy posts," said one of the other Elders beside Kaus.


    The Fifth Elder said, "At this point, we have finally regained all the territories lost during the war and advance under the enemy''s domains. Before, our coalition was at a disadvantage of 17 Supremes to the enemy. Now we''re at an advantage of 10 Supremes because of the deaths caused by the First Elder and our fellow council members on their respective battlefields."


    The Supreme Leader added. "With this change in the war, we will from now on be involved in higher level and more frequent conflicts than before.


    The three of you must quickly adapt, especially you, Segiel. I hope you will flick to the next stage and adapt to the circumstances. You may soon be the strongest of the guild at the headquarters, so be ready to defend our home."


    Minos, Segiel and Abby looked at each other and understood what this meant.


    Minos asked, "Does the Supreme Leader intend to go directly into battle with the enemies?"


    Ji nodded affirmatively. "Jabez is not easy. Despite Juma''s contribution, he has shown us that our previous advantage was not entirely real. The enemies have good methods to counterattack us, and they didn''t catch us off guard only because of the sacrifice of the old First Elder.


    To prevent our headquarters and Examire from being threatened, the strongest of the coalition will go into battle against the damned enemies. That includes me, of course."


    Minos understood the situation, not knowing if this was a very good or very bad time for him.


    There were advantages and disadvantages for him and his family, with all these dangers involving the strongest in the guild.


    Segiel said in a firm tone, "I will do my best to be prepared."


    "Kaus, take the new Chief Commander to the Council''s cultivation room. Give her the promotion award and be ready to hand over all your duties and advise her for the next six months."


    "I''ll make sure she''s ready, Supreme Leader," said the Tenth Elder, the giant who now looked small next to the level 123 Supreme sitting on the guild leader''s throne.


    "Minos, stay behind. The rest of you are dismissed." The old man with the white hair and beard gestured to the human.


    "Supreme Leader?" Minos asked after the Generals, Segiel, Abby and the Elders had left.


    The Supreme Leader looked at Minos with a smile and asked, "I''ve heard that you''re holding a tournament between your family members. Is that true?"


    "Yes, Supreme Leader. I don''t need the Hydras'' Amulet anymore, so I''m holding a smallpetition to pass it on among my descendants... I''m also using it as an excuse to see how my rtives are doing. The truth is, I missed a lot of their growth while I was solving my own problems."


    Seeing the sincerity in Minos'' eyes, the Supreme Leader agreed with the young man''s methods. "Competition is always wee. Make sure your offspring be good pirs of the guild, Minos."


    "Certainly, Supreme Leader."


    "But first, I must ask you to register the three dragons that are about to be born. I know they''ll be your children''s mounts, but such powerful creatures need to be guided by the guild and contribute as actual members." He surprised Minos.


    "Is the senior also a Seer?" Minos asked, surprised to hear about the dragons in the eggs he had given to Kendrick, Lily, and Hollie, which hadn''t hatched yet.


    The Supreme Leaderughed as he shook his head negatively. "I don''t need to be a seer to sense the birth of these three... Take good care of them and register them with the guild as guest members of your children."


    "All right. I''ll do it as soon as they''re born."


    With that done, Minos was given permission to leave and went to meet Abby, who was waiting for him outside the main building in the Council area.


    Now he and she had a lot to sort out over the next few weeks with her promotion and the fresh news that had reached them. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    ''I have to help Gan and Ama be Supreme beasts.'' Minos thought to himself. ''Before I leave for Uzira, there will be many dangers around the headquarters!''


    With that in mind, he and his wife moved on, leaving Segiel behind, knowing that she would spend the next few weeks absorbing the guild''s resources in order to advance to the next stage.


    The guild had special resources that could promote someone from level 114 to the beginning of the 12th stage. As far as they knew, these resources were so powerful that it was possible for someone to advance more than one level at a time, depending on their luck and individual talent.


    But it took time for someone to absorb all the effects of these high-level resources, which were resources also used by the elders to cultivate to higher levels—not least because they didn''t "waste" it by creating too many Supremes!


    ...


    In the blink of an eye, another two weeks would pass while the Armhands'' headquarters experienced the changes brought about by the war.


    The changes in the Council had already been announced to all guild members, while Segiel entered her third week of seclusion.


    Minos hadn''t been able to help anyone else advance to the 12th stage, but something important to his family and his faction had happened. Two days before Gloria and Hollie''s battle, the first of the Stuart siblings'' eggs hatched.


    Lily''s dragon was the very first among the future dragons of the Stuart siblings toe into existence!
