Chapter 2496 Jembei's Council

The moment he found himself face to face with Minos, remembering his death and feeling that there was nothing he could do against this human, Jembei laughed bitterly.

"It seems that I made a mistake with my plans... I just didn't expect that one of my own would still be here. Looks like you chickened out, Sender." Jembei commented as he looked at the individual weakened by Minos' powers.

Sender said nothing. There was no point in arguing with a corpse. Jembei was dead, under Minos' control, and as soon as the effects of Abby and Minos' abilities wore off, Jembei would disappear.

"Now that you're among us, I hope I can count on your support in dealing with the enemies. Is there anything you can tell me now to help me deal with the General you left behind to kill me?" Minos asked.

Being under Minos' control, Jembei could never refuse to answer his new master. He quickly said what he had to. "I don't know how far your powers can go, but dealing with Artaud won't be easy.

Perhaps the use of Sender, your innate ability and all those corpses will help you a little. But I doubt it will be enough to kill him and make sure you at least escape. To defeat him, you need stronger help than you already have, or a level up. Anything else won't work."

"I agree." Sender said.

Minos sighed and then, with a wave of his hand, Jembei joined the other corpses stored in his special urn, where he could wait for the call of his masters.

Minos placed the six new coffins at the edge of the cave before picking up the eggs he had obtained in the Magma Barrens.

"Hollie, come here. Pick one of these three for yourself." He motioned to his youngest daughter.

She doesn't belong to any faction. Yet, she is a member of the Armhands for over 2,000 years. She is very close to one of the Elders of the guild. Of all the people who want to be the guild's next Chief Commander, she is one of the favorites in the competition.

Jembei has a good chance because of the influence of the Jade Chainsaws and his ability to make deals and gain the cooperation of the right people. But Segiel is different. She doesn't have many supporters, but her big backer can move even the current Chief Commander!

I can't promise you that winning her alliance will guarantee you the support of the Elder, but having someone with such contacts on your side has many advantages".

"She's close to an Elder? How is that possible?" Ruth asked curiously.

"They say she's from the same world as the Elder." Sender commented. "Maybe that's why. But regardless of how, it's a fact that Segiel is often seen entering the Guild Council and has met this level 120 Elder several times."

"Level 120?" Minos swallowed his saliva after hearing those impressive words.

Sender smiled in confirmation. "All the elders in the guild are stronger than the Chief Commander. They all have cultivation beyond level 117."

"How does one become an Elder?" Ruth asked. "There are only 10 seats in the guild's Elders Council. Unless one of those seats opens up, there's no way for a new member to become an elder. However, when a vacancy occurs, the Chief Commander has the option of giving the seat to one of the Generals, or they can become an Elder and leave their seat vacant.

Supposedly, one of the Council Elders is at the end of his life after living for over a million years. If he doesn't enter the Upper Realm in the next few centuries, he will die. That's why several high-ranking Sovereigns are already preparing for the opportunity to become the next Chief Commander of the guild, as well as the next General."

This was one of the main reasons Minos suffered so much upon his return.

Jembei, as well as others who were left alive to harass him, wanted to grow and become more influential in order to take advantage of the death or ascension of the eldest member of the Guild Council!
