Chapter 2661 Authorization to Leave for Uzira

A few more days passed and once again Minos returned to the Council of Elders, this time on a less negative occasion.

With all 10 Elders back in focus, no longer worrying about a war to fight, Minos stood in front of the 10 Elders and the guild’s Supreme Leader.

“Elders, Supreme Leader,” he respectfully said with a gesture of greeting and a subtle smile on his face.

Some looked at him in silence and neutral expressions, but others were thrilled to see Minos. This human had transformed himself and changed the fate of the guild, and was now one pillar of the force, the future, so to speak.

The Supreme Leader saw this in Minos and naturally had a smile on his face. “Minos, it’s good to see you well. I see that your cultivation is developing easily, haha.”

“The Supreme Leader flatters me. I’m just doing my best,” Minos said, still standing in front of the U-shaped table in this room.

Jalai continued, “By the way, how are your relatives and companions in the world? I heard that a large group of guests from your faction joined the guild seven years ago.”

Even though all the elders, Minos and the Supreme Leader had been at the headquarters for most of that time, they had hardly met during that period. And even though many there knew about the things Minos had been doing, they hadn’t talked to him about it until now.

Minos answered the guild leader’s question, “They’re fine, Supreme Leader. The weaker ones are working to strengthen themselves and improve their positions in the guild, while the stronger ones are already showing their potential. When I leave with my group to expand the guild to Uzira, they should be prepared to serve as internal members and grow organically.”

“That sounds good.” Jalai didn’t lie, before touching on the heart of this meeting. “So, it’s about your departure for Uzira that were here today. Have you got everything ready? Your group, travel plans and replacement plans in the guild?”

“Yes, Supreme Leader.” Minos distributed several documents to the 11 aliens in front of him. “A group of 27 guild members, including me, will leave in 25 years from headquarters, heading for the west coast. All the names who will go with us have already been duly recorded in the plans you now have in your hands.”

The 11 aliens flipped through the pages, looking at the list of members of Minos’ group, him, his wives and 23 other companions, 3 of them Supremes and 20 high-level Sovereigns. Most were members of his faction, but there were outsiders, among them observers, who had been recommended to Minos by his own Council.

Minos’ travel plans were not complex. With what little reliable information they had, they would basically have to defy the violent phenomena of sea travel. To do this, they would need defensive resources, recovery pills and potions, crystals and coins to acquire more resources both on their way out of the continent and on their eventual arrival in Uzira.

Their plan was to survive the journey, so they had to consider their arrival in Uzira. Qilnats could be worthless in that place, so the most important thing was resources that could be used as bargaining chips. If Uzira was stronger than Oqia, then high-level resources for them would probably serve for barter and wouldn’t be so eye-catching.

Considering this, there was a list of things that Minos was asking for in that travel plan, which the Elders could now decide to accept or refuse.

Apart from that, there wasn’t much else. From surviving the terrible Violent Sea, the plan for settling in Uzira was very simple—find an unoccupied place, build a secret outpost and get closer to mainland civilization.

Apart from that, their job would be to understand the civilization of that place and live as cultivators, hunting their own resources and strengthening themselves.

If they were at all successful, they would eventually hunt for the black liquid and find a way to return to Oqia.

Segiel’s master asked after reading everything, “There’s no deadline here. You do not know how long you’ll need before you return?”

Minos shook his head and explained, “We don’t even know how long the sea voyage will take, so it’s hard to say. But if we use my cultivation as a parameter, I don’t think we’ll return until I become a mid-level Supreme.

How long will that take? I can’t say, but it would be at least a few centuries.

There’s also no way of predicting the problems we’ll encounter… Imagine if we get to a place where we have to face a war just to be able to cultivate in peace? That could delay our plans a lot.

Anyway, I don’t expect to return in less than 300 years, that’s for sure.”

Some Elders commented on this, seeing no problem in waiting a few centuries. For them, that was the time that would pass in the blink of an eye while they meditated.

Besides, Minos’ journey to Uzira was really precious to each of them. It was better for him to take it easy and worry about ensuring success rather than speed.

Klaus said, “I don’t think we should set a deadline for his return.” He glanced at the elders before turning his gaze to Minos. “But neither should we be without a mechanism to know that you are still alive and following our plans.

So I suggest setting a deadline of a thousand years. It’s not for you to have completed your mission, General Minos. It’s for you to update us. If everyone agrees, I’d like you to update us on your achievements and the status of the group within that period.”

Everyone immediately agreed to the Tenth Elder’s suggestion, while Minos understood what had to be done.

“As soon as we get to Uzira, we’ll try to find a method of communicating with you within a thousand years, then.”

At the moment, the only method he could think of was to send one of the men back to Oqia. But that would be too dangerous. As Uzira was superior to Oqia, there could also be other viable alternative methods for them.

In any case, he could only promise that he would try to maintain a means of communication every thousand years.

But Minos didn’t expect it to take that long, even considering the next phase of the dispute over the inheritance of the True Celestial.

So the Elders and the Supreme Leader laid down the conditions that Minos and his group should follow in this expansion to Uzira, accepting the requests for resources that he had made in the departure plan.

The next few years would be a time of preparation for him and his group, when they would have to disengage from their roles in the guild and prepare for the most dangerous journey of their lives!
