Lord of the Truth Chapter 978: Crazy plan



Half a day later-- Sowhere in the Ancestral Continent--

This beast zone is characterized by its tall thick trees, each one of them exceeding 30 ters in height, from above the branches overlap and the leaves intertwine to form what appears to be a yellow carpet extending towards the horizon, if soone stood on a mountain and saw this view they would think that this is the ground!

But also those huge trees were the reason for consuming all the nutrients of the soil for themselves and not allowing the ergence of trees of other species or even small shrubs below, it can be said that these trees created their own entire ecosystem above them, but killed everything below!

That is why those ancient trees and the strange environnt adopted a large number of birds and small winged beasts, in addition to different types of monkeys and other climbing beasts, but there is no trace of ground beasts or large winged predators, which makes it relatively safe compared to the rest of the continent's forests.

But it is still isolated away from every major city so no travelers co this way, and by having next to no ground beasts it is also empty of beast hunters, there are also no valuable herps or none minerals to attract quick wealth seekers!

This is why, except for a few chirps every now and then, this place is deadly silent.

*Baam* *Taak* Baam*

But today the forest floor wasn't silent as usual, there were a huge number of builders hamring piles into the ground and huge carts carrying building resources and more builders!

In the middle of all this was a large tal arch, it was the space portal that Robin ordered to be built in a safe place away from sight and never to be activated, but recently after it beca a main transitional portal, it was decided to make a large defensive city here that would gather all the researchers and rune masters in a quiet, high-class society where criminals and even children were not allowed to enter, it was decided that this would be the center of the empire's future...

It is the new Sky Opening City.

Inside the guest tent--

"The construction sounds are loud but the location is nice, you wanted a change in the scenery, my lord?" Amon and Sakaar entered the tent door steadily and imdiately bowed to Robin.

"The city of Jura is a cetery for many honorable people, it should remain as a cetery, we have bothered its residents long enough. We will continue our etings here until the imperial capital is rebuilt." Robin then gestured for them to sit down with a smile, "...Did Billy give you an introduction to the situation?"

"Just the main things." Sakaar found himself a seat next to Robin, "He Spoke about the ssage the Shadow Sword brought and the three you chose to go with you, but there are too many loopholes..."

"And you are here for us to talk about those loopholes, but as for the chosen ones, they've actually beco four." Robin nodded.

"Can I co?!" Amon got excited, his mood had been sour since he heard that Robin would be taking only his sons Caesar and Richard with him along with Sakaar.

If there is soone else to co in must be him, as there is no one else in the Empire that can take now after he has approached level 49!

"No, Hulakis the one coming." Robin shook his head, "You will have another mission."

"....." Amon returned to his silence and found himself a place to sit as well.

"Hulak? The sa Hulak we know? My lord, perhaps you should reconsider, it will be a tough fight and I wouldn't feel safe fighting shoulder to shoulder with him." Sakaar looked a little worried, but Robin didn't bla him, Hulak had let them down in the battle for Safe City and was clearly soone who didn't like team play.

"I talked to him, he just wanted a chance to fight to vent his anger and he finds that coming with us will give him a certain chance to survive," he then shrugged.

"And do you believe him?" Sakar didn't look convinced.

"You don't?" Robin tilted his head to the side, "When we pass through that portal and see Pythor and his entourage waiting for us, do you think he'll join them after what they did to him? At least we saved his life. Anyway, that's not what you're here for." Sakaar and Amon's attention was drawn to Robin even more.

Robin began imdiately, "According to the invitation, Pythor wants to et alone, so the City of Hope should be empty or nearly empty of soldiers by the ti we arrive, but after experiencing their thods, I think it's safe to say that they won't keep their word."

Sakaar nodded, that's what he ant by the loophole.

He, Caesar, Richard, and Hulak are considered a striking force that can easily conquer empires, but the Great Serpent Army has four Marshals alive and they're all in Nihari: Serpal, Xanox, Lacrosse, and Celebos.

And if it said that the presence of the Lord would make a difference, there is still Pythor waiting for him there, a level 50 powerhouse with a fearso bloodline and a planetary spirit aiding him, and it's unknown what kind of weapons and thods he has after sending his sons and generals to war in the Middle Belt for all those years!

So in such an evenly matched circumstance, what would happen if the ships of the Great Serpent Empire appeared out of nowhere bringing an entire army with them? What about Jabba and his followers who were openly following the Great Serpent Empire now?...Going as a handful in such circumstances would not be wise at all.

"The whole idea is to have a fair fight in case the negotiations fail, so we have to take precautions to prevent any interference." Robin jumped right into the subject, "It's been a few days since the Shadow Attack and I think your armies have forgotten the incident a little bit, I want you to gather the entire Demon Army in the southern region for ."

Sakaar remained silent, it was Amon who replied, "We lost 250 Demon Emperors and about 300,000 soldiers, so we now have just under 600 Demon Emperors and 700,000 soldiers left, will that be enough?"

From Amon's perspective, the Demon Army was barely even with the Great Serpent Army before, but now that almost a third of the army had been killed and the Imperial Guard reinforcents had arrived, the Demon Army no longer held the sa weight, if a major battle started they wouldn't be the winner!

"Actually, there are 600 Martial Emperors and about 500,000 soldiers who will be arriving as reinforcents for Pythor in the next few days, maybe tomorrow." Robin understood Amon and laughed, "That ans they will have 2300 Martial Emperors and over a million soldiers... What, will my Demon army finally know fear?"

"This..." With simple calculations, Amon found that they were in a very bad situation, the lord's crazy plan getting crazier every ti he opened his mouth!
