Chapter 2698 An Enemy Approaches
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Not long after leaving his hibernation site, the black-headed white worm went to the place where it had killed the last of its enemies, from where four of the invaders had fled.
Amidst the surrounding rainforest, rocks and undergrowth, it searched for the special smell of the invaders, a moment later freezing motionless.
'That smell... That's different from that group!'
The creature stopped to think, sensing a mixture of particularly fresh smells, certainly also from invaders of its continent. It had smelled nothing like it in its 600,000 years of life.
As it moved its head from side to side, its special sensors picked up a negative fragrance, so dirty and dark that for a moment it felt passionate. It definitely wanted to know what was behind not one, but two terrible auras that had passed through this area recently.
Almost trembling with anxiety, it moved to follow the trail of death that only a few scavengers like itself could follow.
'It seems to be a large and powerful group, even more interesting than the other one, hehe.' its thoughts sped up as it moved at high speed. 'Good, I'll have more food than last time!'
...
Minos' group had continued their search after the stop in the previous cave, spending another three days searching the outskirts of this coastal region.
They had found fresh traces of the battle that had possibly killed a large part of Leger's crew, with more remains of the Oqia natives killed just over a year ago.
Following the signs left by the desperate survivors of the attacks back then, they moved a little further away from the coast, even if it wasn't their aim to go deep into the continent.
But going deep into the continent—Minos' plan to stay out of harm's way for an hour—wasn't what they were doing at the moment.
To go deep into Uzira, they would have to travel months into the forest, heading west. Although they were traveling, so far, in the opposite direction from the coast, they were within the range of terrain that Minos thought it would be acceptable for them to explore at present.
But while they were exploring the local forests for another day, Minos stopped where he was and turned his eyes in the opposite direction. On spotting something new come within the range of his abilities, the fate of his group changed.
"Minos?" Gloria asked, raising her guard instinctively.
Before he could even answer her, Minos summoned the two coffins he had been carrying, bringing Wenni and Walkas back to their side for the third time since they had arrived in Uzira.
Wenni and Walkas knew the area where they were now. This place was called the Pristine Wilds, and it was the grand forest that Leger had told Minos and Tiolos about.
It was the place where newcomers to Uzira had to pass through, where several powerful groups helped the sovereign family of Uzira to make it as difficult as possible for living beings from Oqia or other worlds to pass through.
Being a region as large as the central part of Oqia, one would have to travel for months and deal with several problems if they wanted to get past it and reach the part actually ruled by the sovereigns of the continent, where the richest places on the entire planet were located.
Wenni and Walkas had given the group a number of recommendations on the occasions when Minos summoned them for quick meetings. This information included areas to avoid, difficult tribes to deal with, and even some areas where there should be opportunities but no official 'owner' of the land.
Now, however, upon being summoned by him, they quickly realized that this was not a time for conversation!

Minos said to everyone in his group, "A level 120 Supreme is two minutes away from us, rapidly approaching our position, coming from the south-east." He looked in the direction in question.
"We have to deal with him," Minos said as he felt drops of sweat forming on his companions' bodies.
They had no choice. The Nautilus' Compass was telling him that there was no chance of survival for them if they tried to flee. The only minimally good fate for them was the one in which they fought!
"Get into formation!" Tiolos shouted after Minos' words, which were full of conviction.
If Minos said that, then there was nothing else to do but prepare for the imminent fight!
The Supremes took the lead, positioning themselves around the group, turning their attention and weapons in the direction Minos had indicated.
Minos also prepared himself, bringing Wenni and Walkas closer to him for the moment.
"Wenni, you will serve as a support in this battle. You're not supposed to fight. Your job will be to provide me with the energy to strengthen myself and some of our allies. Unfortunately, the enemy is powerful and I won't be able to steal its strength. In any case, be ready to defend Abby, Gloria, and Ruth."
Wenni accepted easily, while her husband prepared to fight seriously for the first time in many millennia.
"As for the rest of you, support the Supremes and me. We'll be the attackers in this fight!"
The over 10 Sovereigns positioned themselves close to Abby, Gloria, Ruth and Wenni, those with defensive abilities staying further forward and the others further back.
While everyone was circulating their energies, getting ready to receive the opponent, an enormous creature with a black head and a white snake-like body, a worm, appeared in front of them, stopping 40 meters away from the most advanced of the group.
The creature, which had several legs on its side, sensed the large group it was looking for right in front of it, for an instant changing its appearance in such a way that it almost seemed to smile.
Its interest was first fixed on Walkas, but then turned to Wenni and Abby, in particular this blue-haired human woman with level 111.
Minos raised his cultivation to level 115, while helping Gloria and Abby reach level 113, with Ruth reaching the peak of level 114. Standing next to Walkas and Tiolos, he raised his sword towards the enemy creature.
With no desire to talk to a being as strong as a level 120 Supreme, Minos spread his wings and flew at the enemy, shouting with all the strength in his lungs. "Attack!"
