Lord of the Truth-Chapter 327 Purpose
Everyone lowered their heads down, and clenched their teeth and their hands upon hearing those words, they were fuming inside but still didn't find anything to respond with...
It was clear that the laws that Robin just used are different and more powerful than their own!
Even though he used them all at the same time and he clearly does not specialize in one of them, his law was still better than everyone present
However, they tried to deny what they saw...
But how can they still convince themselves After seeing the rest of the major laws?
Everyone focused their eyes on Robin, and on the 3-meter giant standing beside him, if they were scared just a little while ago, then they are absolutely terrified now...
These guys weren't punching above their weight, they came knowing what they are up to!
Even the Elders started to look around, the humans wearing green armor used some kind of green energy to bring items to life and use it in their battles, it was similar to the one Robin used just now on the tree, does that mean they are using another major law?
Well, they are undoubtedly very powerful, if bringing things to life isn't a Major Law then what is?!
And those strange Demons, each of them had enough strength to kill any sage with ease.. they are the sages of the four empires, they are the users of the Major Heavenly Laws, they are not some random cabbages!!
What exactly is this force? Where did they come from and what do they want from them? Since when this world has this kind of expert outside of the four Empires? And since when more Major Heavenly Laws have been discovered?!
"Anyway…." Robin did not wait for a response and directly continued, "I will explain what's going on here as simply as possible, the Flame Empire has kidnapped a number of my followers and I want them back, everyone will be fine as long as you stay obedient until that happens." free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎
"This…" The representative of the Flame Empire expedition started to sweat, he has been stationed here for decades and didn't know what was going on back there.
"Flame Empire? What the hell have you done?! Who are these people? don't tell you don't know, there have been a few ships coming from your continent in the past few years, someone must have told you something!" The representative of the Sacred Tree Empire Expedition looked at the guy next to him and shouted f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚
"You are the reason for what is happening now?! Why would you kidnap people belonging to such an entity you damned idiots?!"
"I don't know! I really don't know!! No one has told me anything, This is definitely a secret matter of senior executives. How would someone like me know about it?" The Sage from the Flame Empire panicked and responded quickly
"Shit, sir, if your problem is with the Flame Empire, then what are we to do with it?" The Sage of the Water Empire turned and spoke
Robin shrugged, "Nothing, but you are going to stay here with me until the exchange is over, I can't allow an unexpected accident to happen, I think you can understand that.."
Before one of the four Sages replied, Robin continued, "All the ships you came with were put taken under our control, so don't try to escape, it will have dire consequences.. and don't wait for rescue either, the continent is being patrolled by Dracos all day long, if any other ship comes it will be Capture and its crew will be brought here to join you.
Because I am a generous and understanding man, whoever wants to go out may go... you can continue your training and hunt your own food, But whoever leaves will have to return to register his attendance every 3 days maximum, and whoever is late will be chased and killed directly... I trust you will behave, These are just temporary measures until I finish my affairs with the Flame Empire and leave you be. "
" generous and understanding man may ass.. he simply does not want to bring us food even though he has imprisoned us!" One of the Four Sages muttered in a very low voice
Robin heard him clearly but did not comment, but instead turned his eyes toward the sage representative of the Flame Empire, "As for you..."
"Me? yes... yes...?" Hakim replied nervously
"Take one of the ships and immediately move towards the Continent of the Flame Empire, tell the officials if they want to see their sons here safe again, they should bring me all the prisoners they captured in the Ancestral Continent, especially the prisoners from the four special forces and the Rune Masters.. and don't try to play any game like keeping some of them locked up there, I know every single one you took.
The journey from here to the Continent of the Flame Empire takes about 3 months, I will give you 6 months for the round trip and an extra week to gather all my followers... Every day delay after that I will kill a hundred children of the Flame Empire, understand?"
"Understood! I will move right away!!" The Sage of the Flame Empire bowed and almost flew eastward, afraid that Robin would turn back at his words and have him stay.
"Wait, you idiot, if you fly to the borders of the continent on your own you will take days!" Robin spoke and then looked toward one of the demons at his side, "Can you get him to the location of the Flame Empire ships for me?"
"Yes." The Demon bowed slightly and then jumped over the Draco next to him and signaled to the Sage of the Flame Empire to jump after him, after which they both disappeared from view.
"The Ancestral... Continent...?"
"There are people that strong in the Ancestor Continent? Didn't they tell us that it's just a desolate place where the weak minor heavenly law users live?"
"Those alien races used to live with our ancestors back there?! Why wasn't this put in the books?"
The sage of the Flame Empire was so excited that he wouldn't have to die in this place that he didn't check what Robin said carefully, but those words couldn't escape unnoticed by the rest of the prisoners
Robin didn't care what was happening below, he had already said what had to be said, so he simply rose from his chair and walked towards his tent silently.
"Were you doing all this for a hostage exchange? Do you really think this would work?" Jabba quickly moved behind Robin and asked with furrowed eyebrows.
"Why wouldn't it succeed? All the teenagers in the valley are from imperial families and most of them are the sons of sages and individuals with high authority. Otherwise, when they get the chance to cross the ocean to cultivate in this place, I think they will want to get them back rather than keep a handful of useless prisoners." Robin spoke as he moved
"Useless..? You just said that they keep the Rune Master and special legions members, maybe even Caesar himself, are they going to let go of them so easily?" Jabba asked again
"They are all useless because they are under oath to shut their mouths, they are keeping them prisoners until they decode the oath tablets and free them from the oath so that they can speak and expose what they know about the Runes, but they should know by now that the Aoth Tablets are nothing like the Fire Explosion Talisman, decoding it may take them hundreds of years!
They will refuse and act with anger first, but it will not take time before they decide to release them in order to get their sons back, of course, they will think of coming back to the ancestral continent and capturing the Rune Masters again after decoding the oath tablets ." Robin replied with a half smile, he knew they wouldn't get that chance a second time.
"Theoretically you are right, but the empire that destroyed your family without warning surely won't compromise so easily, and that sage who left saw all our troops here, do you think that when he comes back he will really have your followers with him?"
Robin stopped at this moment and gave a cruel smile, "Don't let such thought weigh you down, just tell me when Amon comes..."
"Amon?!" Jabba was surprised and wanted to ask Robin again what was going on, but he had already made his way to his tent.
