Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye...

At this moment, a large group of soldiers from the Black Plain Army were around the local dome, camouflaged in the terrain, hiding in the few places it was possible to do so.

There were more than 500 soldiers there, all above level 44, individuals who were being led on this mission by the army leader himself, Minos!

This group was on a special mission launched by headquarters a week ago when a letter from the Gill family had arrived in Dry City.

The Gill family still faithfully believed that they were in control of Dry City and consequently the Black Plain. As such, this noble organization had not failed to try to communicate with Beatrice, the Spiritual King who had led a confrontation against one of the Silva family groups.

They thought she was in control of this region, and since her actions had resulted in significant losses to the family, they couldn't help but notify her of these updates.

After all, her 'mistake' had not been deliberate and might even have given them more time to act. But, on the other hand, she was a core member of that organization and needed to be aware of the decisions of the House Gill leaders.

Therefore, occasionally, notices would arrive regarding these external matters of great importance and also some questions...

For example, some elders of the Gill family were not pleased about the delay for this town to generate profits for them... This place should be their great opportunity, but so far, not even a single crystal has arrived at the headquarters of this organization.

That was bizarre and annoying!

But fortunately, they had understood from Beatrice's letters the problems that prevented the crystals from leaving this city. That was because, despite the opportunities, Dry City 'suffered' from a severe lack of resources internally, something that would need to be solved before the exploration could occur.

That, according to Beatrice, had been caused by a ruler who had tried to destroy his own property during his attempt to escape from their siege. And because of this, the family would have to wait for a while until new harvests were made...

And although dissatisfied, the leaders of House Gill had decided to wait a little longer on this matter before trying new approaches.

However, another problem had alerted the forces of Minos and caused this mission today. The problem this time was not an attempt to strengthen the security of Dry City or a questioning of the viability of the business in this city. 

The problem was the Silva family!

After being blacklisted by such an organization, the leaders of House Gill had struggled to find a solution that would ensure their survival.

After much talking and considering the pros and cons, the leaders of this family had decided that it would be best for all of them to come to the Black Plain permanently!

By doing so, they could develop this place using their family members, and they could take advantage of local opportunities more quickly by coming here directly. 

Not to mention that it would be easier to protect only one place, and that place was the Black Plain. This unattractive place could make the actions of this noble family's enemies more difficult.

After all, as far as they knew, the Silva family might not have known about these opportunities in Dry City!

So, they might have a better chance of survival here.

And well, that truly made sense when you looked at the situation from the point of view of the Gill family leaders.

They would stay in a place already known to everyone or go to a new home, where people would not expect to find them.

In one option, they would stay put in a place where they could quickly be surrounded in a short time. In another, they would try their luck in a place where maybe that would happen, but they could at least try to hold their ground while having high-level resources.

Unlike their original territory, the Black Plain could provide food of high spiritual concentration. In this case, if the city run by this family becomes isolated from the rest of the world, unable to receive or send resources, it would be far preferable to be in a privileged location!

Thus the leaders of the Gill family had decided to begin the migration to Dry City!

Precisely this had prompted the local army to plan the current mission, in which these many soldiers were participating.

A week ago, the Gill family letter had arrived in this town warning Beatrice about such a thing. They were going to begin the migration to Dry City little by little, doing this in 30 trips, until all the subordinates of this power were transferred here.

Such a plan was because they didn't want to draw so much attention from local powers. 

But on the other hand, they also didn't want to take too long to make this migration. After all, each passing day, the greater were the chances that this organization would be exterminated!

Plus, there weren't that many members in the Gill family, so 30 trips with less than a thousand people in each group wouldn't be that flashy.

Of course, it would be eye-catching if all the people in each group left the headquarters city of that family simultaneously. But if this would be done slowly. Using strategies to distract possible spies, things that could make it possible to get almost a thousand people out of a city of hundreds of thousands of inhabitants without drawing attention.

And so, the first group to leave the headquarters city of that organization was scheduled to arrive in Dry City in the next few hours!

Such a group would be one of the strongest since that organization didn't want to risk leaving Dry City, their future home, unprotected while they moved in.

For this very reason, five Spiritual Kings were accompanying the first of the thirty groups!

Anyway, knowing all this, Minos and his soldiers had already quietly prepared for today.

After discovering that the Silva family had found out about the incident in the northeast of the Black Plain, Minos wanted to form an alliance with House Gill since they had a common enemy. However, before he could even communicate with such a power, Beatrice's side had already decided to come to visit him...

And well, since Minos was strong enough to deal with them, he had concluded that it would be better if this noble organization did not become an ally.

This organization had already caused problems for him in many situations. From the young Ralf who had followed for this family and not for his army to the army's fights against their subordinates. So, being an ally could be much more than they deserved.

Consequently, he wanted to subdue this organization!

...

Anyway, while waiting on the outskirts of the local dome, slowly, the visitors expected by the local soldiers finally began to approach from the east of Dry City.

This group had been moving in many carriages, running at the maximum speed their beasts could run. Meanwhile, several people were traveling inside each of them, some capable of carrying up to 20 people at once.

On the other hand, some individuals were on weaker mounts, riding on those beings in the outskirts of those carriages.

"Come on, people! Don't slow down. We're almost there!" Said the level 55 Spiritual King, the leader of that group.

After hearing this, the people in the surroundings continued with what they were doing, commanding their beasts so that they would run this remaining distance as their lives depended on it.

On the other hand, little by little, the people in this group were beginning to see a strange horizon far away from them, in the direction of where Dry City would be.

'Uh? What is that? Is it some mirage?' The group leader thought as he looked in the direction of the local dome.

But from that distance, this man would need to get closer for some more time before he would finally be able to sense the spiritual fluctuations of that dome...

However, while he was observing this, suddenly, a sound reached the ears of those people.

Zum!
