Chapter 2823 Surrounded on All Sides
"Enemies in sight!" The voice of one of the Hell Lifelings in the cabin of the vessel navigating the underwater world came out, breaking the tense silence in that dark space.
Only the external lights of the ship and the navigation devices illuminated the surroundings, further marking the tense expressions of the individuals there.
Minos rose from his seat, spotting enemies surrounding them from all directions in the next few moments. Not just those visible on the horizon ahead, but several other high-level beings from the 12th stage.
"Looks like we're about to face a perfect storm," he said to his women, understanding the enemies they would have today. "Besides the Sea Serpent and his minions, one of my competitors from Devdar's heritage and Qhava's envoys are going to surround us at almost the same time."
"That's terrible," said Abby, aware that, however strong they were on Minos' side, Qhava's envoys were no simple matter, just as the competitor for Devdar's inheritance must have their methods.
Dealing with them separately shouldn't be a deadly challenge, but doing so against all of them simultaneously should pose actual risks to their lives.
'It all makes sense now.' Minos understood Devdar's hint when the man said that he would find his clue in the place where death awaited him.
Devdar hadn't foreseen Minos going to Hell, but he owed it to his prediction about the future to adjust and maintain the difficulty of this group's underwater mission.
Minos looked at his women and without blinking, they all got off that boat alongside just two of his crew members.
They adjusted their bodies to cope with the pressure of the water and the gases available in the underwater world, while raising their auras, drawing the attention of the enemies arriving there.
They already knew that combat would develop there, but the enemies couldn't read the future. They were still finishing their hunt for Minos when they sensed the auras of three high-level Supremes and four mid-level Supremes in that position.
"And here we meet," Minos said, his voice reverberating through tens of thousands of cubic meters of space, reaching the audible sensors of the Sea Serpent, Qhava's envoys and the broccoli head man.
They all stopped some distance from each other, with the strongest looking at Minos and his women with ugly looks on their faces, different thoughts running through their minds.
Qhava's envoys looked at Abby and understood who this woman was, which represented a great opportunity for them.
Meanwhile, the Sea Serpent couldn't help but look at Minos and recognize that this was the one who had stolen the Nautilus' Compass.
Orcel looked at Minos, surprised by his opponent's low cultivation, but he was cautious. He didn't know who the women next to his opponent were, but they didn't look simple, no matter how low the cultivation of the three of them.
'His damn prophetic abilities have prepared him for this confrontation.' Orcel thought, not at all interested in being one of the first to confront Minos. 'And there are other enemies of his... Very strong individuals, I see.' He looked at Qhava's envoys, each of them displaying powerful spiritual fluctuations full of darkness.
Both Orcel and the Sea Serpent felt a little annoyed by Qhava's envoys, but they tried to focus on Minos and the women on the side of this common enemy.
"I wonder, did you all come here to die?" Minos remained the only one to speak. Meanwhile, his aura grew stronger, inducing a small standoff and reconsideration by some of those involved.
The leader of Qhava's group, however, would not leave without Minos' head and Abby's death. The traitor was not under the effects of Qhava's powers and Abby's death would bring opportunities for their Devil to become even more powerful.
After understanding the current level of their enemies and sensing that those others there were potential allies in the battle about to begin, the high-level Supremes from Hell moved in, also raising their auras, showing their black crowns.
Carcasses of the dead buried in the sand of the ocean floor rose, showing life and intelligence as they ascended towards Minos' group.
By now, the group's ship had already moved away from them, ignored by the siege of enemies who were only interested in Minos and his women.
When Qhava's envoys moved first, the Sea Serpent's underlings sprang into action, with the Sea Serpent itself swimming against the enemy.
Orcel also moved forward, but he stayed more in the background, first interested to see what was different about the current Minos compared to the version from the last phase of Devdar's inheritance.
Orcel would soon have his answers. Minos showed the same dark powers as some enemies attacking him, while the dead appearing on his group's side did not reach the same heights of power as the enemies, but rather gave their strength to their creators.
The cultivation of Minos and his women rose, reaching levels similar to or greater than those of the opponents attacking them, while the icy waters of this underwater area became agitated.
Minos' wings spread, revealing six figures in silver flames, while space itself shook under the power of Minos' increasing dragon's hands.
He transformed, bringing forth a golden, silver, and black dragon, bearing long black horns and obsidian claws.
The women of Minos didn't undergo such shocking transformations, but they each exhibited their abilities, with Gloria splitting into three mercury figures, while Abby commanded a minor battle of underwater undead.
Ruth was the first of them to move after Minos left to attack Qhava's envoys first, demonstrating her advanced physical characteristics that made her the fastest in the area in the blink of an eye.
At that moment, everyone involved in this increasingly hot and chaotic situation realized that this was going to be the toughest battle of their lives. If they won, it would be by a long shot and before that they would see the worst enemies of their lives in action!
Orcel cursed his situation, but got seriously involved in the fight from the start as he realized that otherwise his chances of survival would be close to zero.
Even surrounded by enemies, Minos' group was simply too strong for him to be on the back foot!
'Shit! And this bastard doesn't even consider me the principal enemy!' The broccoli head alien didn't know whether to be offended or thankful that he didn't have to face such a bloody monster head on!
