The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1160 Before The End

The tens of thousands of skeletons quickly began to attack the enemies trying to escape, forming what looked like a wave of bones, ready to swallow whatever was in their path.

Seeing this, Minos did not fail to use the movement of these skeletons allied with him to maximize his results, knocking out as many enemies as possible.

He attacked the strongest of those who tried to flee, destroying the arms and legs of countless opponents with blades of spiritual energy.

At the same time, every time he looked toward the direction of the battlefield from a distance, energy was fired from his eyes, knocking out those he wanted to keep for his wife.

On the other hand, a few hundred skeletons floated motionless in Minos' vicinity, serving as his batteries while he did all this.

These batteries would eventually discharge and lose their danger. With this, they would be abandoned, other skeletons would take care of them in Minos' name, and new enemies would replace them.

In this way, the battle lasted for almost two hours. In the meantime, Abby has recovered and eliminated a bunch more enemies before returning to her meditative state.

So, of the 15,000 or so enemies, 11,000 of them were eliminated, while of the survivors, more than two-thirds were unconscious, waiting for Abby's recovery for them to meet their end!

Unfortunately, not only did they perish in this place. On the side of Minos' group, more than 30,000 skeletons had 'died' in the chaos of this great battle.

But as told by the subordinates of the Goddess of Life, those beings were more than happy to have a chance for revenge. As such, they had departed in peace, leaving this world of the living for good without further regrets.

"Sigh!"

"It's finally over!" Wilfred fell backward onto the ground, extremely exhausted from this great battle.

He had luckily survived this great confrontation since, besides Minos and Abby's unusual powers, the skeletons in his group were decisive in 'killing' their opponents.

Thus, even though he had weak foundations, the now supreme elder of the Walker family was alive and well!

"Yeah, it's great that we're done with that group!"

"Haha, I didn't expect us to defeat so many of them in such a short time!"

"It truly is a glory! At this rate, we'll be able to finish our business in less than a week..."

The many 'surviving' skeletons began chatting in the surroundings while the subordinates of the Goddesses of Life approached Minos and Abby.

"What do we do now?" One of them asked Minos as the beautiful blue-haired woman cultivated peacefully.

Minos then replied. "We will finish our business in this place and leave in search of the enemy survivors."

"Right, 10,000 to 14,000 of them should still be scattered around this graveyard." One of the skeletons dressed in armor commented as he thought about it.

"Yeah, the biggest group must be west of here..." Then, they started talking about their enemies, deciding the next steps they would take.

...

While Minos' group continued in that place, Ruth and Gloria were still in the same crypt as before, watching the screen that showed the luminous dots slowly moving in that place.

"I think we'd better go back... I don't think Minos and Abby will return from that place soon." Ruth commented to Gloria.

p They had stayed almost two whole days in that place, having even been left aside by the people from the Walker family, who only stayed there for a day.

But as time passed, Ruth could not help but notice that this inheritance would not be so simple and quick to resolve.

"Let's stay a little longer..."

Ruth then took one of Gloria's hands and stopped her from speaking. "No, let's go back. You're pregnant and can't stay in a place like this for days."

Gloria looked at her belly and then at her harem sister. "I haven't yet reached the stage where I'm a weak woman, Ruth. I am still capable of battles and more. So, how I can't stay here?"

"I don't know, but do you want to risk stressing out your baby?" Ruth used her best 'weapon' to convince this stubborn woman.

"Sigh..." Gloria sighed as she massaged her belly, which did not even look like that of a pregnant woman. "All right. Let's see what this family has prepared for us..."

They then left that place, heading back to another part of the Walker family palace.

...

Three days later...

After the previous great battle, Minos and his group had eliminated more than half of the surviving enemy skeletons and were only moments away from finishing the first test of this inheritance.

A few tens of thousands more of their allies had perished, but instead of their group shrinking in size, it had increased.

Halfway to the present moment, they encountered several other groups of skeletons, adding them to their forces.

And so, their group was surrounding the last enemy group, where in a few moments, they would finalize their revenge with the help mainly of Minos and Abby.

"Are you ready?" Minos asked the subordinates of the Goddess of Life and the leaders of those innocent skeletons.

"Yes, we are ready!" The skeletons wearing low-level grade-3 armor said at the same time, full of determination in their voices.

"I can't wait to join the rest of my companions!"

"So much time has passed, but I believe that in death, it won't make that much difference..." One of them commented in a melancholy tone.

"Sigh!"

"But if reincarnation is possible, I don't think we'll have a chance to see our loved ones again... After all this time, they must have gone through the reincarnation cycle a few times."

"No matter. At least now we'll be able to rest after fulfilling our duties!"

As the Goddess of Life's subordinates talked, the city lord thanked Minos. "Lord Stuart, chosen one, we are grateful to know such talented and capable people as you before our absolute end."

"So, do what you must, and don't worry about us. We are fine with the near end, even if our 'awake' time has lasted so short."

Hearing that, Abby felt a little moved. But she knew that these victims of the God of Death's minions had already died and only had small fractions of their consciousnesses 'active' because of the Goddess of Life's ability.

And considering how much they valued their revenge against their killers, she knew that each of them was genuinely pleased with how things had developed.

Therefore, she clenched her fists and nodded to those beings. "We will do our best."

"Hmmm." Minos agreed as he massaged one of his wife's shoulders, already curious to know what the next test would be like.

Meanwhile, Wilfred stood with his head down near those two, not receiving any attention from the many skeletons in the surroundings.

"Sigh..."

'I feel like a fish out of water...' He lamented in his heart, wishing he was stronger.

'At least I got a bunch of valuable items for my family... So it wasn't a wasted journey!' So he convinced himself just before he heard Minos' voice.

"Well, if everyone is ready, prepare for the attack!"

"Let's finish the damn enemies!"

"Ah! Kill!" Countless skeletons shouted in excitement, eager for the battle to begin.

"Kill everyone in your path!"

Soon after, they rushed toward the lowest point of what looked like a valley, where their opponents were.
