The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 800 The Battle Of Dry City: Abby, The Protector

As Celeste looks at her ex-husband staring at her, she can’t help but feel anger at this person because of the many assassination attempts she had had to overcome.

Celeste indeed had cheated on him many times with dozens of different men. So, she did not feel she had the right to judge the hatred this man felt for her or even question him for the many assassination attempts.

It was only natural that this would happen. After all, they were supposed to be monogamous. And Brooke’s father followed this religiously, never having touched another woman since he met Celeste!

But Celeste had broken the taboo, done something that even polygamous people would not accept, cheating on her husband.

That is because people in polygamous relationships had to receive the consent of their partners to have sex with others.

That was true for the man as well as for the woman. Though men rarely agreed to share their wives with others.

It was common for polygamous men to seek more than one partner in the Spiritual World, while women rarely did the same.

That could be a reflection of the sexism in society, the very fact that many women looked for partners of the same or higher level than theirs, they were more selective, and so on.

In short, cheating by women was very ill-seen in this world.

In any case, the fact was that Celeste had done something very despised in the Spiritual World. Something she was not proud of and knew she had no right to justify herself.

But still, this woman felt very bad for the many assassination attempts that she and Neal had suffered because of this person.

She would not question the other side for his motivations, but she was not someone who would give her life or kill herself because she had made mistakes. As someone who valued her own life, this woman could not help but be furious at the actions of such a person.

“David, if I had known that you were such a scum, I would never have married you!”

“Tsk!”

“Shut up, bitch!” He said in anger as he launched an attack against the beautiful face of his ex-wife.

All this was happening at the same time that Minos and those other two companions of his were fighting Thomas, now in a not so good situation as before.

“You almost killed me three times, David!”

“Look what you did!” She showed part of her abdomen to that man, where there was a significant scar.

“It’s a shame only a mark was left behind, you whore!”

“I should have killed you that day!”

“But you see, my mistake allowed you to become a complete disgrace to the family…”

“Not only are you a slut, but also a traitor to the kingdom!”

“For all that, I will kill you today, no matter what it costs me!” He finished his speech furiously, constantly punching the air as his target dodged his blows.

“You!”

“If you weren’t a disgrace in bed, this never would have happened!” She said, giving her side of the story as she prepared to deal with this person.

David’s words had made this woman shake with anger, feeling that killing this bastard in front of her would be the best thing to do, even if part of her said otherwise.

With this ‘whirlwind’ of feelings in her being, it did not take long for her to make up her mind.

“David, unfortunately for you, I am now much stronger than you!” She euphorically said while she had a cruel expression on her face, ready to beat the father of her daughter.

“Now, you will know pain!”

…

While the main fights in that area were taking place near where Minos, Thomas, and Celeste were, other high-level battles were also occurring around the battlefield.

Over 30,000 people were fighting in that area where the attack from King Brown’s group had come from.

And even though by now a few thousand opponents had already fallen, the vast majority were still standing, fighting with all their might against their respective enemies.

With that, the thousands of Spiritual Generals of the Dry City forces and many of those of the same stage on the Brown family’s side were suffering right now.

The battles were being very tough, with the people on one side being slightly stronger than the other, but at the same time being pressed by numbers.

Fighting more than one opponent was never an easy task, even for those who were stronger. After all, when the number of opponents increased, all the signs that a warrior should pay attention to in a battle also increased.

But a person’s mental capacity was unlikely to increase much with better techniques unless they were mental techniques, of course.

So, the battle around that eastern side of Dry City’s defensive dome was brutal, with many people drawing strength from where they did not even know it could be drawn before.

On the other hand, the experts of the Dry City forces, although also facing mighty opponents, were in a slightly better situation than their opponents.

The Dry City Spiritual Kings were much stronger than those people of the same level as them, and by being underestimated at the beginning of the fight, they had gained some advantages!

Even though none of those high-level opponents had died so far, some of them, especially those at the beginning of the 6th stage, already had injuries that were hard to ignore.

So, the 15 Spiritual Kings who had accompanied Minos’ group in this place were slowly diminishing their opponents’ numerical advantage.

But this was not only due to the simple fact that some of those Spiritual Kings had Silver-grade technique. After all, those who had such techniques were also those at the 6th stage first levels.

What had helped this group of Spiritual Kings tremendously was Abby, who had learned a Golden-grade technique right after reaching level 50!

Unlike Minos, who had learned a mental technique upon reaching that stage, Abby had learned a defensive technique, something that fits perfectly with her condition.

That was because, although Abby had had the chance to learn any technique at this stage, unlike Minos, she did not have a complete set of techniques of that rank.

After all, Minos did not have many Golden-grade techniques, and some of them could only be learned at lower levels, as in the case of those he used himself.

Hence, there was a limitation that had prevented Abby from having a complete set of Golden-grade techniques, something that left her fighting proficiency well below Minos’.

So, considering this and their current situation, the best option for her was to learn a defensive technique that could become powerful in her hands, protecting her and helping this territory.

And it was precisely that technique that had made the difference for some of those other Spiritual Kings fighting in that area!

Infinite Mirrors!

Abby activated her powerful defensive technique again, summoning multiple mirrors in front of herself and three of her allies!

After feeling her energy reserves dwindling, Abby saw her mirrors spinning around her companions, ready to deflect the enemy attacks that were going in the direction of those people.

Swooish!

Immediately after that, some of those attacks went directly at the masses of Counter-Revolutionary Army soldiers, even stronger than when launched by Abby’s enemies.

“Damn!”

“What kind of technique is that?”

“Who is this monster?”

Those enemies said these things among themselves while looking with hatred in the direction of that person who had her entire head covered by something.

They, powerful Spiritual Kings at levels 55 and 56, could not believe their bad luck to come across someone so strange.

“Some of these damn opponents are stronger than people of their levels normally found in our region. But this person and Minos are very abnormal!”

“Is that some innate ability?” One of them asked his companions, trying to understand this.

They already had a theory for some of those people. But, still, Minos and the mysterious person were very strange and unusual. So, they did not even know what to think about those two.

However, their opponents did not miss the opportunity while they were wondering. On the contrary, they attacked such enemies with even more force than they had been attacked.

“Die!”
