Chapter 652: Last Group Subdued!

After one of the groups watching the outskirts of Dry City kidnapped the Brown family's investigators, Minos asked the Miller family to keep an eye on House Silva's actions.

Because those noble families had a long history of spying on each other, it didn't take long for Abby's family to inform Minos of the changes in House Silva.

Because of this, Minos already knew that the leaders of the Silva family had not yet tried to communicate with the royal family. On the contrary, his enemies were making various investigations and preparations for the future.

With this in mind, this young man had an idea of what the leaders of House Silva were planning and, consequently, what would be the best time for him to act.

On the other hand, he would not have much time to continue with his plans if he waited too long. After all, the Brown family itself had given a deadline for those people to settle their affairs in Dry City, as well as House Silva wouldn't keep making preparations forever.

Sooner or later, whether he wanted to or not, those powers would make the decisions, and things could happen in the worst possible way for him and his territory. 

Hence, this young man wanted to resolve this right now, considering, too, this issue involving the Gill family coming to Dry City.

So, upon entering his office, he immediately asked Mia and Sergeant Joey to accompany him for a conversation regarding this situation!

...

"... Young master, other than what I reported, those 12 people are doing relatively well. They are a little stressed by the fact that they have been captured, but they will get used to it soon." Joey commented, finishing talking about the situation of those people.

"Hmm, that's to be expected."

"But what about their complete interrogation? Was Abby able to get them to say new things that the soldiers from before hadn't heard?" He asked as he rested his back in his armchair.

"Not much. They just talked about minor things, regarding their assignments around here, deadlines, what they were supposed to do after they finished, etc. Just things concerning their duties as investigators."

"Other than that, we didn't get anything else with these people."

Upon hearing this, Minos was not surprised. After all, those 12 people were weak, and they were unlikely to have access to more privileged information. Therefore, he was not disappointed.

He had only asked those questions because sometimes even ordinary people could learn about important matters to individuals like him, rebels...

"Well, that's okay. Let them continue living their lives in the local prison while working in the farm fields. But in 15 days, I want their leader to write a letter to the royal family, telling them about the findings of their investigative group."

Young Stuart wanted this to happen just within that time interval because of what was happening to the Gill family.

Given the time it would take for a crow to transport this information from Dry City to the capital of the kingdom and the Brown family to react to it, the Gill family would have enough time to complete their migration.

So, his plans for the Gill family would not be hindered because House Brown might already be sending forces to negotiate with him in Dry City.

On the other hand, he had already asked the Miller family to conduct a military exercise in this period to ensure that the Silva family would not attempt to contact the royal family during this period.

Anyway, Minos then looked at his secretary and said. "Mia, schedule that with Abby later."

"Okay, young master."

After Mia said that, Joey couldn't help but ask. "Young master, what should we inform the royal family?"

"Well, we can't inform them about everything since that would make the Brown family's greed greater. But we need to lure them into an attempt at negotiations so that we have time to deal with the Silva family and House Chambers in the meantime."

After saying that, Minos snapped the fingers of his hands and continued. "Let them know about the defensive dome of Dry City. The Silva family must already know about it, so there's no point in hiding the truth about it."

"On the other hand, let's say that the Black Plain can now produce food of low spiritual concentration. That won't be enough for them to want to take our territory right away, but it will explain where our resources came from and how we can generate taxes for them."

"Oh? Good thinking!" Joey nodded in agreement, at the same time, as he scratched his face.

"As for other information, we will say that Dry City has around 85,000 inhabitants, dozens of Spiritual Generals..." Minos then began to quote all the fictional details that would need to be in the investigators' message.

Such a thing couldn't just contain these more important things, or it wouldn't make sense to the people who designate this investigation.

After all, if a place like Dry City could afford these defenses, it would need a specific population, average strength, 'x' million crystals per year, among other things.

In other words, the fictitious report would need to have all sorts of data that would lend credibility to the story that Minos wanted the Brown family to believe. 

With this, he could make that organization ignore any attempt the Silva family tried, giving him time!

He wanted, at least, to deal a solid blow to the Silva family before the beginning of the war against the Brown family. But for this, he would need time to plan and act on it.

...

And soon, hours passed while those three talked until this plan was completely finalized.

From now on, the army would only need to gather the fictitious data mentioned by Minos and prepare an official report for that investigator from the Brown family to send on the planned date.

With that done, it didn't take long for each of those people to return to their duties, resolving other matters.

'Now we just have to wait for the Gill family...'

...

Boom!

Explosions sounded in the surroundings of the Dry City dome, where hundreds of people were lying on the ground while a group of a few individuals was fighting against a few hundred soldiers.

Each of these individuals fighting against the soldiers of the Black Plain Army was at the 6th stage, members of the last Gill family group that had arrived in the city ruled by Minos.

After a little over a month since the arrival of the first group, several things had happened. Of the 30 Gill family groups that would come here, 29 of them had already been subdued by the local forces!

And as such, this group fighting outside the local dome at the moment was the last remaining portion of the Gill family to be completely subdued.

However, despite having had many of their members subdued, more precisely, most of the strength of this noble house, the remaining group was not weak!

There were 4 Spiritual Kings in this last group, 3 of them being subordinates between levels 50 and 51. As for the last one, he was other than the strongest person in this family, the patriarch, level 56.

With that power, this group was fighting with everything they had against Minos' soldiers in an attempt to escape from this place.

After all, just like the previous groups, these individuals had been deceived and had only found out that this town was not under their control on this day... For this very reason, they thought that there was no fate for them other than misery if they fell to these people in this place.

And it didn't matter how pretty the empty promises on the other side were. They wouldn't believe it until they had no other choice!

Consequently, the people still standing in this group were fighting bravely, while Minos cared for that level 56 cultivator.
