Chapter 2695 Landing in Uzira
The last month passed uneventfully as Minos' ship finally sighted firm land ahead.
As they approached the continent that was growing ever larger in their field of vision, those on their break watched the approach of Uzira with attentive looks on their faces.
Today was a sunny day, with good weather and no strong winds blowing the group's boat. Meanwhile, the waters were becoming more and more transparent as they approached the coast of the mainland, with crystal-clear green waters embellishing the surroundings.
Despite the smiles on their faces, the members of the group were not inattentive. Circulating their energies in their bodies, prepared to act if necessary, they were in position at this moment of the vessel's deceleration.

"10 minutes to landing 5 kilometers off the coast," said Diret for everyone on the ship to hear.
As soon as they arrived in Uzira, most of the coastline was covered in beaches, with very few natural harbors. There were even such places visible within sight of Minos' companions, but their aim was to stop at sea and continue on small inflatable boats the rest of the way.
When the ship came to a complete stop, of the more than thirty individuals there, over 20 made quick work of getting their inflatable boats out and then boarding without further ado.
Diret and his men stopped at the bow of the ship, where Minos, his wives and Tiolos stopped to say goodbye to them.
"Good luck on your journey from now on." Minos looked at each of these sailors profiled in the bow.
All these men would be left to explore the continental sea of Uzira waiting for Minos' envoys.
"It may be a long time before we see each other again and you head back to Oqia. In the meantime, take care of my ship. Eventually, I'll send people to accompany you on another journey across this dangerous sea," Minos said as he looked to the east.
Tiolos said a few words too, followed by Ruth, Abby and Gloria, who thanked the group for their efforts over the last few years.
"We're the ones who thank you, ladies." Said the captain, his gaze bright and extremely satisfied.
There was nothing better for a navigator like him than a successful voyage ending.
Now they could rest and prepare for new adventures, adventures around the most powerful continent in this world, something that each of them was very keen to do at the moment.
"We'll be at your disposal when you return."
Minos had already left a device with the Diret to alert the group to the approach and the moment of preparation for departure for Oqia. As soon as he activated the device, Diret would have two years to finish whatever he was doing and move to the vicinity of where they were now.
Minos gave one last wave to the group that would be staying with his ship, then got into one of the boats alongside his wives.
Tiolos followed in another boat, and soon they were sailing together in five small orange vehicles, heading towards the beach. As they moved on, Diret and the others didn't want to wait and set off toward a lane that was less close to Uzira.
Minutes later, when Minos' group deflated their boats, they could no longer see the ship controlled by Diret's men on the wide strip of sand on the beach.
Minos' group got into a formation, with the men on guard looking around while their companions finished stowing their orange boats.
The outskirts of this long stretch of beach, with at least a kilometer of sand between the sea and the adjacent forest, went as far north and south as the eye could see.
In front of them, dense forest with many trees covered much of the landscape. But looking up a little, they could see the peaks of distant mountains, peaks so high that they reached a level close to the clouds.
In addition to the visual information, the group sensed other information together. The energy available in the surroundings was really dense. Even though they were in an area where there were few living creatures to concentrate the energy and laws in their vicinity, one of the Generals there realized that the situation on this beach was not so different from the rich areas of Oqia.
'If a place of arrival like this is like this, what will the wealthier areas of Uzira be like?'
Several of them asked themselves the same question, tightening their fingers around their weapons, anxious about the journey ahead.
"Let's go. Keep your eyes peeled, everyone," Minos said when the rest of his companions were ready to move. "Let's go in search of Leger and the others. If they've survived so far, they should be waiting for us nearby."
They advanced together, protecting their crops while each took on different roles.
As soon as they left the strip of sand and entered the wooded area, they were faced with rougher terrain than they had expected, given the landscape visible from the beach.
Encountering slopes, bare rocks at some points, from where one could clearly see the beach, they soon began to look for Leger. Doing so wasn't difficult. By putting themselves in the shoes of Leger's group and thinking about what they would do to wait for a group coming from the Violent Sea, they numbered several useful places to hide or observe the beach.
Disregarding a dozen locations while taking in the rich vegetation and dangerous creatures close to them, they arrived at a spot where Minos suddenly stopped to find what looked like a tentacle in advanced decomposition.
"What is it?" One of the group's Supremes asked.
Minos touched the dehydrated thing and said. "This belonged to one of Leger's companions." He looked at Tiolos. "One man who was with Leger that day was the owner of this tentacle."
Tiolos, recently promoted to level 117, heard this and said in a deep tone. "If that's the case, we can say that at least part of Leger's group made it to the continent and that they dealt with local problems."
"So, what do we do now?" Abby asked.
"We'll look for traces of the group and survivors. Although we have Wenni and Walkas with us, they can't be at our side constantly. If we can have Leger with us, things will be easier at the start of our journey through Uzira." Minos made up his mind as he left the rotting tentacle behind. frёewebnoѵēl.com
They headed deep into this initial forested area of Uzira.
