When Minos threw his Black Hole Bomb, the Spiritual Sage immediately noticed the movement of this fellow and sought Abe’s location to secure the life of the former Vogel prince.

He knew he could not risk opening a spatial crack near the area affected by such a thing. Otherwise, he would incur the risk of bringing the offensive power of that weapon to himself.

Since he did not want to risk generating the same situation as Gavin’s captors and gaining new scars, this specialist has been much more careful lately.

‘This guy is truly tricky. He has created a weapon capable of wounding me and is using it to clear the field while preventing me from saving many of Abe’s men.’ He thought about this as he moved, using only his speed to get Abe away from the focus of the attack.

But for the moment, he could not run any further away via his space manipulation, or he would suffer from the problem of taking a brutal attack in his direction.

At this location, only by flying could he escape the attack safely. But if he used a spatial crack to move further away, he could make the attack reach areas beyond its own limit.

So with that first move, Minos had already managed to immobilize a more desperate escape action by these people, temporarily blocking the Spiritual Sage while clearing the area.

And just like that, the Black Hole Bomb reached its maximum, exploding seconds after Minos threw it!

KA-BOOOOOOOM

When such a thing exploded and made the ground and even the air in the surroundings of that area tremble, all members of the empire forces realized the sign of the beginning of the battle and prepared to fight.

They were protected due to the distance and would not suffer from the immediate effects of that explosion. When it came to the aftermath, the worst of that weapon would pass very quickly. Even if this place turned into a volcanic zone, they could stand there and battle for some time without problems.

While several of their enemies had the remnants of their souls burned away by the fiery flames of the explosion, most of Minos’ forces were already circulating their energies. They prepared to launch attacks the moment they could fly into that area.

Soon after Minos’ attack, the Spiritual Sage could act again, so they would have to act very quickly to prevent escapes through wormholes.

When the flames from the explosion of that mass destruction weapon subsided, they all vibrated in anticipation as that earlier all-green area turned into a volcanic inferno.

More than a third of Abe’s mercenaries there earlier failed to escape Minos’ powerful weapon in time and perished there without a trace. But about 60 individuals, the vast majority of them Spiritual Saints, survived the attack since he had acted in a way the strongest had managed to escape.

“Damned Minos Stuart!” One of these men shouted in anger, feeling the catastrophic effects of the enemy leader’s movement.

As this ash-dirty person shouted, the other survivors felt their hearts beating faster, imagining they would have nowhere to escape today.

This attack had been stronger than Minos’s last one against them. But not only that, they could already see the number of opponents approaching them, flying and launching attacks in their direction. So these people immediately realized the gravity of the situation and began to move.

“Damn it!”

“All that’s left is for us to fight to the death!” One of them activated his sacrificial technique, ready to attack with everything he could use to eliminate as many opponents as possible before he fell.

Several others did the same in front of the skies of that area, already filled with attacks appearing in the surroundings, being launched in their directions.

Minos saw all this from above, where he had fled before his bomb exploded, and immediately began to fly towards these opponents, intending to take at least half of them, hostage.

In the midst of this, as he had destroyed all the vegetation in the surrounding area, he could see precisely where Abe was, near that Spiritual Sage.

Spatial Sword!

To help his men who were going to attack the Spiritual Sage, he immediately used a large fraction of his strength and activated his main offensive technique.

When he did this and launched a diagonal blow in Abe’s direction, a blade of spiritual energy came out of Minos’ sword and flew for a few meters until it disappeared into thin air.

But such a thing had not simply ‘evaporated’ but had disappeared from the area because of the skill of the weapon he had in hand, a high-level grade-3 sword!

The Spiritual Sage was the only one who could feel that Minos’ weapon made his blows go through space through the ‘gaps’ normally found in space, and he frowned.

That attack was not weak and could even hurt his body a little if he was hit without protection!

Since such a blade was also fast, he had to move and hurl Abe away from such a thing.

‘Damn it!’

‘If I go with him, I won’t be able to guarantee that no attack will pursue us…’ This man from the Eastern Empire lamented in his mind, feeling that he would have to ‘push’ Abe to a different location than his own in order not to risk it.

When he felt Minos’ blow, he also noticed several high-level fellows already launching attacks in his direction.

They all could cause difficulties for him, so the fear of losing Abe because he could not control the escape space crack he had just opened made him stay in the same position.

At the same time, that level 73 young man appeared dozens of meters ahead, from where this expert could still see him.

“Attack with everything!”

“Don’t allow that damn demon to survive!” A native of Vogel shouted in a fury, causing several high-level Spiritual Emperors and low-level Spiritual Saints to focus on Abe’s position and attack.

“Oh, shit!” That man felt cold sweat dripping from every pore of his body and began to use his techniques to run and raise his defenses in case the worst happened.

As for counterattacking, Abe was not crazy about doing something so risky, so his current focus was on protecting himself and relying on the Spiritual Sage to get out of there alive!

Meanwhile, the Spiritual Sage used the strategy that Minos and his allies were expecting, moving through space so as not to have to counterattack them, temporarily losing sight of Abe.

Minos saw this and smiled, sensing that his group’s chances of ending Abe’s life this day would not be lowered.

He then used Chaotic Gravity to ‘trap’ in his surroundings more than half of the enemies remaining after the Black Hole Bomb, so he could focus on Abe.

With his ‘batteries,’ Minos did not take long and began flying towards his position among the strongest Spiritual Saints there to attack Abe as they acted against the Spiritual Sage.

‘Time for us to end it all, you worm!’ Minos’ eyes glittered as he prepared to use one of his fusions!
