Lord of the Truth

Chapter 985: News from the three R planets



Meanwhile--

Robin slowly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh, then looked in a certain direction, and laughed...

Robin didn't have to use his 5% refinement to find out where Harus and his people were, thanks to the soul altars he had already collected 15,700 units, and although he couldn't use them as he pleased due to the limits on soul force in the Young Planetary Belt and he only had to use 1,000 of them at a time, he could circumvent these limits somewhat.

For example, when he wanted to scan his surroundings for the planet spirit domain or for specific people, he could now extend 15 separate arms in all directions around him that moved continuously like the arms of an octopus, each one containing 1,000 units, this way scanning his surroundings for a thousand miles or more was nothing more than child's play!

What made Robin laugh now was that they were getting closer to the palace perimeter, but they didn't seem to be planning to attack just yet, which meant that they were consumed by tension, and at the same time they hadn't made a decision on what to do yet.

When Robin went to the battlefield between the beasts and his army, he was able to spot spies following the battle and saw the confusion on the faces of Durger and his nine huge beasts, so he immediately understood what had happened. It was the marshal and the fugitives with him who had plotted this plot, and he responded to them with the game of endless reinforcements!

They were the ones who had started the game by provoking the beasts, but now they didn't know what to do. Isn't that laughable?

"Your Excellency, my army is almost done transferring and I have to catch up with them. Do you have orders for me or for Supreme General Caesar?" At this moment, someone came next to Robin and bowed slightly. It was Martin Barnett, the descendant of the Barnett family, the rulers of the Flame Continent, and the successor of Old Man Gu.

"Just tell him to hold the line and not try to advance or retreat, and that the moment when the rats are caught is near." Robin replied with a smile, he could actually see his plan coming to fruition before his eyes.

General Martin bowed slightly in confirmation of receiving the orders and then followed his soldiers through the portal.

Knowing the location of the enemies doesn't mean he can do anything, among them is someone who fought Caesar face to face and another person who can be said to be equal in strength, they both can be considered marshals, and with them are 200 imperial guards with the strength of fleet generals, even if he knows their location, then what?

He can now go to their midst by splitting space and use a few tricks to give himself an advantage, but what will he do against all of them? Even if he was like a lion jumping into a pen of sheep, wouldn't most of the sheep run away after he catches the first one or two? If that happens, even if he wins, his victory will be worthless, as those who run away can regroup later to form a new threat.

He also can't bring Caesar, Richard, the warlords, and the rest of the martial emperors to help him kill them with one attack, if they get out of the way of the beasts, they will control the planet and it will be difficult to reclaim it from them.

Here is the difference between individual strength and the need for an army. Without absolute strength like the strength of the Dark Shadow that attacked Sakaar and the rest, Robin still needs help even though he is the strongest individual on the planet without a doubt.

Robin's trick to bring more fixed reinforcements while keeping none to zero forces around him is to provoke the Marshal and Imperial Guards to come and break the portal, then with the help of the arrays, the planet's refinement percentage and perhaps summoning Caesar and the Warlords to strike them from behind at the right moment, he can wipe them out!

But they have to come first, come panicked and greedy with no other option, then they will all be killed! And from Robin's perspective, their slow progress and tense appearances mean that this result is not too far away.

"Who's turn to send reinforcements?" Robin asked next to him.

"General Raiden, your Highness." Leonid quickly replied, "30,000 soldiers, 30 martial emperors, and two full-fledged Warlords ready to cross at any moment. He also said he had a pleasant surprise for you."

"Good, what about the rest of the generals?" Robin nodded in satisfaction, the Marshals would probably only need to see another reinforcement or two before they lost their patience. "I'm afraid no one else will come, Your Excellency." A forced smile appeared on Leonid's face, he had been wanting to tell Robin this news for hours but hadn't dared to approach him before he called him.

"What do you mean?" Robin's brows furrowed slightly, but he quickly nodded in understanding, "Oh right, the only generals left who didn't send any reinforcements were Peon, Alexander, and Elizabeth, they were all sent to the R-class planets."

"Yes, Your Excellency, but each has its own case." Leonid quickly replied, "We have a report from Governor Alexander that he is fighting a real war against an army that combines the locals and the remnants of the Great Serpent Empire together, and he has also requested more reinforcements from the Headquarters Lady Emily, who in turn has recruited and sent him another 50,000 law-using soldiers, so I didn't dare to ask him for reinforcements in the first place, I just let him know what's going on here. Please don't be angry with me for not pressuring him, Your Excellency."

"No, not at all, you done well... The locals have allied with their oppressors? Well, something like that was expected." Robin laughed indifferently, Alexander is capable of controlling things, and as long as he has completed the reconstruction of the Space Portal and can receive reinforcements, then he should be fine.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"General Peon is a bit of a different case," Leonid continued quickly, "He reported to headquarters that he is in a temporary alliance with the locals, and together they have besieged the remnants of the Great Serpent Empire in a northern fortress and killed them all, but he doesn't feel safe letting a single soldier leave the planet until your highness personally meets with the locals and oversees any deal that is being made. He also stated that those locals seem honest but could be very dangerous."

"En, he is right in this" Robin nodded a few times, "If he started viewing them as friends already they could stab him in the back, since those locals are powerful enough to make Peon say those words, we should probably be really careful. Tell Emily to send him reinforcements until I finish with the Poison Rock Planet and go to them."

"Yes, Your Exllency," Leonid nodded once, then rolled his pupils away, "As for General Elizabeth and her army..."

"What is it?" Robin frowned slightly.

"...We haven't had any contact from them yet, we're afraid we've lost them."
