Chapter 2485  Going to the Magma Barrens 

"Interesting." The strongest corpse in terms of raw power touched one coffin and felt how it could help them.

"I agree to help you achieve your goals against your enemies. However, I have one request." He said to Minos while the others looked at him.

"What do you want?" Minos smiled with interest.

"I will tell you the location of a valuable treasure I found 50,000 years ago. If the information you've given me isn't wrong, it must have been long enough for the area in question to have produced another such treasure. In return, I want you to help me find someone."

Minos scratched his chin, wondering what this creature had in mind. "After helping me in battle, you want to be stored in one of these coffins until I find this individual for you. Is that it?"

The alien smiled as he shook his head in agreement. "Yes. I remember well the day I died. The one who caused my death was a 10th stage worm who took advantage of a vulnerable moment of mine. I have things to settle with that worm!"

Minos and the others looked at each other, but no one said anything to stop this corpse. He was already dead, and if he was willing to pay for the opportunity, they wouldn't mind.

"All right, but you have to give me the information about this resource before I look for this creature." Minos said.

"I'll give you all the information you need before you have to use me." The being said without trying to force the situation with Minos.

Minos was willing to negotiate with him, but if he demanded too much, he could risk to be left with nothing!

Minos could certainly force him to talk!

Seeing the situation, the others around showed similar interests. They were willing to give information, talk about places that only they had found on their travels, or give advice to the group in exchange for being kept in those coffins, while the group did some favors for them.

Some wanted revenge, others just wanted to know what had happened to friends, family, and even crushes.

One of them, in particular, just wanted to live long enough to see where the guild had come and where it was going with Minos and Abby as its members.

Minos saw no problem in helping them in this way and agreed to give them the opportunity to live in the twelve special coffins as long as they could stand it.

With that, he left Divine Seals on the twelve bodies before placing them in their respective coffins around the cave.

The moment the last of the twelve crystal coffins were closed, the last of them began to hibernate while the living watched.

"Impressive. I didn't expect Recruit Abby to have such a supreme divine ability!" Abby's superior said as his eyes lit up.

This was a sign this group had a glorious future, but also he would grow a lot as the supervisor of a group with so many exceptional talents!

Rhett couldn't help but agree before he saw Minos putting seals on the bodies of Ruth, Gloria and Abby, similar to the ones he had put on the corpses.

"With these seals, you'll be able to summon them even when I'm not around." Minos said as he explained what this was for. "I'll leave the twelve here while we travel. I'll only call them if I really need them. So don't hesitate to use them in my absence."

With the Divine Seal in its third phase, Minos could summon anything connected to it, even over great distances!

Therefore, no matter where he was in Zocarro, he could rely on these 12 corpses when using his special technique.

Gloria and Abby agreed to go along with this arrangement, while this blue-haired woman took a deep breath, quite exhausted after reviving high-level 11th stage corpses.

After resolving this, he and Abby felt their cultivation return to normal before they both went to cultivate to recover from their states after using their abilities on those corpses.

The others soon left to return to their activities, training routines, and responsibilities to the guild.

...

Before they knew it, Kendrick's group's first month in the guild was over, and it was time for Minos, Ruth, and the other three members with missions in the Magma Barrens to depart.

One month had been enough for the entire group of newcomers to the guild to adjust to their new surroundings, learn the rules of the place, its opportunities, and what they needed to do to grow.

With his plans in place, Minos led his group of five out of the guild that afternoon.

Stopping at the exit post in the fenced-off area of the guild, he explained to the guards in the area the reason for the group's departure, and was granted access to the exit thereafter.

As they made their way from the immediate transport area to the surface area, where they would continue on to the Magma Barrens, Jembei and his six companions appeared in one of the corners of the guild.

After a man from the exit post approached them and confirmed that Minos' party was about to embark on the most difficult punishment mission they would face, Jembei got his confirmation.

"Are you ready? Let's go to the Magma Barrens to prepare the traps for this group." All of his cronies nodded in agreement before Jembei activated his teleportation device, causing the surrounding energy to vibrate as the space distorted.

As Minos and his people reached the mountain near Examire, Jembei's group made their way to the Magma Barrens!

...

Arriving at the Magma Barrens only a few seconds after leaving the guild's headquarters, Jembei and his companions found themselves in this blazing inferno.

"The targets of these five's missions are at these locations." Jembei showed the group a map that led them to the five targets their enemy group would be pursuing over the next few weeks.

"How long do we have before they get here?" One of the cronies asked.

"About 20 days. That's how long it should take Minos and his people to reach the entrance to the area. After that, they can go to those places we're passing at any time."

"Good. That's enough for us to prepare some surprises for them, hehe."

They quickly went to the five places in question.
