Chapter 2583 The Cerulean Isle
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Weeks later...Near a region of large lakes in the central region of Oqia, Minos flew over a lake so large that he couldn't see its edges.
But not far in front of him, Minos could already see a small island surrounded by calm, crystal blue water and white sand. Lush buildings, mixed with the tropical forest of the area, covered almost half of the island, with a large port positioned on one of the sides Minos could see.
Not everyone could fly like Minos in this world of strong gravity!
But Minos didn't stop on this island. Even though this was one of the Armhands' outposts, and he was officially on a mission to ensure this place would continue to be run by his guild, he continued south.
Green Channel was only a few minutes' flight from there for someone of Minos' level. He continued on, soon catching sight of the shores of the majestic lake, which was home to not only the Cerulean Isle, but several other islands ruled by Armhands.
He spotted a hilly area where a large river with several man-made points joined together and soon identified the Green Channel where Kendrick was supposed to be.
'They are fighting...'
Minos saw from afar the explosions, the spiritual attacks, chunks of earth, bodies and plants flying, smoke, and everything else that the destruction of a battle causes.
He saw the two sides of the confrontation. On his side, Armhands and their allies with just over 600 Sovereigns, and on the other side, the coalition of Firestone Mines with over 800.
The enemies were stronger. It was obvious. Without help, Kendrick's side in the conflict would have to flee in defeat or even be wiped out.
Still, Minos didn't want to join the fight right away. At the sight of Kendrick, Grisdi, and a few other members of his faction, he stopped a few dozen kilometers away and made a few hand seals.
Five black coffins emerged from the space, materializing until they burst open, and five extremely well-preserved corpses, barely alive in appearance, opened their eyes.
"Blood."
One of them opened his eyes wide at the metallic smell in the air, needing no explanation from Minos to understand his mission.
Minos explained anyway, "I'll monitor you. For now, anyone who doesn't have this symbol here," he pointed to his chest, where the symbol of the Armhands' alliance was, "you can kill. Go ahead. Release the demons awakened by the black liquid!"
None of the five level 114 peak corpses hesitated. After months of being experimented on, tied up, put into coffins, and then repeating all the procedures they had done over 40 times, they were thirsty for something different.

When they felt free, not only because of Minos' order but also because the sensation that oppressed them inside their beings was diminishing, they crossed the distance that separated them from their enemies in a few seconds.
In this area, the strongest were only high-level Sovereigns like them. But even if there were Supremes around, as there were now, these five would attack with the same smile on their faces.
Kendrick felt a negative sensation in his heart and looked back.
"Retreat!" He opened his mouth as he shouted at Grisdi and his group, looking longingly at his father and the five corpses.
.
"Officer, what's the problem? Falling back when reinforcements arrive?" One man in Kendrick's squad asked, not believing his leader's mistake.
Ignoring the explosions, screams of pain, and flying body parts, Kendrick grabbed the neck of the alien. "Fall back now! That's an order!"
Grisdi moved away from the opponent she was facing, aware that the five bodies joining the fight were probably being trained and observed. They weren't the 100% reliable warriors they could summon with the emergency crystals they carried.
Minos was in the area. She had already spotted him. But it would be better not to rely on him to save them from any problems with the corpses!
She and Kendrick pulled their group back, causing over 50 men on the Armhands' side to retreat.
"Running away?" One enemy asked with a smile, sensing his opponents were realizing the defeat they would suffer today.
But as Kendrick's allies and the enemies noticed him and his party retreating, the five undead landed in the area, causing the surrounding vegetation to wither in their presence.
Those closest to where they landed immediately began coughing, some feeling only minor signs of intoxication, while those closest felt their bodies paralyzed, something eating them from the inside out.
'They can almost perfectly control the corrosive properties of the black liquid to degrade their targets.
The enemy that attacked me when I returned to the continent years ago was chaotic and out of control. But these five, they are in control of their powers and can use the characteristics of the black liquid to their advantage.'
Under Minos' observation, after their arrival on the battlefield, the five creatures attacked, each of them flying close to the ground toward the groups of enemies.
In a single instant, one of them took down a group of over 40 Sovereigns between levels 105 and 113, using a completely different strike than the one he used when he was an enemy of Minos. By forming a vortex of darkness, he used the blackness of the black liquid to ensnare the souls of his enemies.
Another of them was even more brutal, going straight for the strongest in the vicinity, using his arms, legs, and mouth to tear apart the bodies of his enemies as if they were no stronger than rotten wood.
Kendrick and his group watched as they retreated and saw some of their allies do the same, not fast enough to escape the corrosive powers of these five.
"Who are they?" The man who had questioned Kendrick's retreat order moments before asked in horror.
"My father's subordinates and guinea pigs, I'd say," Kendrick said in a cold sweat.
He wasn't like Minos. He couldn't deal with these creatures that could terrorize the leaders of the enemy group!
He made his way back to the Cerulean Isle, aware that now was not the time to join his father.
