Chapter 2692 Last Months of the Journey
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
For the next few months, Minos' group would continue to travel across the Violent Sea, facing more dangers in the first 8 weeks of their journey than they had in their entire trip up to Minos' sacrifice!Without Minos to guide them and unable to make constant use of Wenni and Walkas, the group encountered more and more frequent dangers, having had to use the two corpses to get them out of trouble on over 5 occasions.
With the advice of the two experienced pirates, the group escaped trouble on occasions when the two had to fight or just guide them out of trouble. The two proved their experiences, taking the group into the fourth month of travel since the incident with the level 120 shark.
With the group still 100% in one piece, no casualties and only a few injured, they were now finishing leaving the middle reaches of the Violent Sea and entering the Uzira-influenced stretch of sea!
The journey ahead would still take months at least, but with luck, the group would succeed in their journey, arriving in a less unstable area, despite the greater presence of powerful creatures.
...
In the sixth month since the sacrifice of his Flashdrain parasite, Minos was walking around his ship, having recovered enough to walk normally.
His aura was still weakened, but his appearance had improved to the point where he looked more like the best version of himself.
Feeling the warmth of the luminous rays warming his body, Minos breathed in the salty air and listened to the sound of birds, waves and underwater animals swimming near his boat.
Being about a year away from Uzira, the atmospheric energy was gradually becoming denser, with stronger laws that were easier to perceive.
When he opened his eyes again, Minos could gradually see, on a weaker level, the dangers, opportunities, and the best path ahead of him. His abilities were gradually returning to their best, and he was now able to help his group with tips on where to go.
However, weakened, he was in no condition for combat and would have to prepare for a few more months to become the powerful leader of this group again. Fortunately, he had several companions to rely on and, more importantly, his action of months ago had been very successful.
'It looks like I've really managed to alter the fate of the Sea Serpent.' He smiled as he played with his fingers on the mast he was holding onto, close to the limit he could go at the bow. 'Drawing inspiration from the powers of the elves really was the right choice.'
Back then, Minos had not only killed the level 120 shark and led his group away, he had also used some of the advantage of having been temporarily at level 116 to subtly manipulate the fate of the Sea Serpent.
He wasn't strong enough to steal the creature's fate, as the elves of his world did. But he had altered it, taking the Sea Serpent away from his group.
By the time the creature realize it had been tricked, Minos and his crew would be far enough away from the Sea Serpent that it would be impossible for it to reach them before they reached Uzira!
Finally, after feeling that his journey to Uzira was ending in success, he returned inside the ship to the cockpit, where he had been spending most of his time lately.
Unable to temporarily use his temporal powers or even cultivate, Minos could only wait for his regeneration—strengthened by Ruth—to finish its work so that he could return to his usual routine on this journey.
.
"Diret, let's change our route a little." Minos said as he approached his navigator, who was at the absolute peak of level 114 and could become a Supreme very soon.
The man listened to Minos and, after talking about this change in route, asked how the crew leader was doing. Tiolos would soon join them, listening to Minos' travel plans for these last few months of sailing.
In six months, Minos would be fully recovered, and they would be very close to Uzira. At that time, he wanted to take advantage of the last opportunities available in this sea to propel the advances of his companions closer to advancing levels.
With such a move, they could dock in Uzira at their best and then go in search of Leger and his companions, should they have succeeded in their journey to the continent.
...
While Minos and his group continued their journey, the Sea Serpent, looking for its targets, Leger, Minos and Tiolos' future ally in Uzira, was already on this continent!
Having arrived a year ago alongside his companions who had survived the journey there, Leger was currently hiding near the coastal area where they had arrived.
Every day, two of his group members would go to the natural harbor area of this place, where they would observe the surroundings in anticipation of the arrival of Minos' group. According to their accounts, Minos' group was due to arrive at any moment, so they were waiting anxiously.
But amid the wait, the group hid in this dangerous region of Uzira, where powerful creatures, even worse than the sea beasts of the Violent Sea, lived in wait.
Leger left his cave at a point close to the coast, accompanied by one of his crewmates, a man of level 114.
Using the vegetation to cover their movements, they were patrolling the terrain, when suddenly both broke out in a cold sweat, ducking and hiding among the bushes.
'Shit! A mid-level Sovereign beast!' Leger cursed his luck, not expecting such a powerful creature to be roaming around these far eastern areas of the continent.
Unfortunately for him, his ally and his group, the creature noticed them and its interest turned against them!
"Retreat!" The strongest of the group shouted in concern, giving the order not only to his ally closest to him but also the others in the cave they had been using and on the coast, where they were watching Minos' point of arrival.
