Lord of the Truth

Chapter 785: Taking the initiative



"General Molad, NOOO!!!"

The death of another one of the five generals at the hands of Caesar sent waves of shouts of triumph and anger within the city, tightening the noose around the remaining Great Serpent Martial Emperor even more.

*Boom* *Boom*

As for the *ground* battle outside the city, it began to ignite with each passing second. The number of those killed is already accumulating dramatically, but the number of those kidnapped has begun to exceed that!

"Come here!!"

One of the Sages descended from the sky like a hawk swooping down on its prey and seized one of the enemy officers by the neck. Then he took out something that looked like a metal nail from inside his armor and struck it in the officer's chest.

"Argh!!" That officer from the Great Serpent Empire screamed forcefully as he felt his strength fading, already began to recall memories of his entire life before his eyes as he waited for death, but *swoosh* he found himself being thrown towards one of the space portals, "Woahhh~~"

*bzzzzt* *poof*

That officer raised his head with difficulty to see what was happening around and found the scene completely changing... The sky above him was still dark blue and the soil that entered his mouth was also blue, so he knew immediately that he was still on Planet Nihari, but the sounds of war were no longer there and the city they were fighting beside had disappeared, now there was only a sea of the bodies of his comrades lying weakly next to him, all of them groaning in pain, all of them alive!

Next to them, he found endless rows of soldiers wearing golden armor, looking at them with greed while moving their feet and weapons nervously. It was clear that they were impatiently waiting for their turn to enter the portals... How could they not when they saw all those prisoners being thrown around like that? They should get in and score some points too!

...The sealing nail was invented by His Excellency to be easy to manufacture, and indeed large quantities of it were produced immediately after its invention, 30,000 of them were manufactured within a few days and delivered to Peon to nail the Azil tribe's army. But now, after several months have passed, almost every soldier of Jura's army carries at least two or three of them all the time.

Of course, killing is much easier and less expensive, but for some reason, His Excellency ordered that imprisoning enemy soldiers be given double the points of killing them, and that is why this strange phenomenon of kidnapping began immediately after the battle began. Within a few minutes, 10,000 soldiers of the Great Serpent Empire were killed, but more than 17,000 were captured and deported from the battlefield!

Of course, these numbers barely scratch the mighty army of nearly 2 million soldiers, but the fun has barely begun...

"...Well I didn't expect this, I thought you would make a breakthrough in your cultivation and come out with some trump cards like a legendary beast pet or a shining divine sword, and maybe some demonic auras and rows of old mountain seniors would appear, that kind of heroic things you know... You're boring man~" Holak's voice finally echoed in Robin's head again, clearly frustrated

A big smile appeared on Robin's face, "Honestly, I thought about it. If I did my best, I could kill the three Marshals, half of the Snaklings Generals, and maybe 40 or 50 Martial Emperors before I lost my energy, but after that, I would be helpless, and there is no guarantee that this would turn the tide, they might simply continue fighting and cause heavy losses to my forces, and also... wouldn't my intervention personally be an admission of my Empire's weakness and my failure as a strategist? No, I will not declare my defeat so easily."

"Yooo~ Killing the three marshals? Half the generals? 50 Martial Emperors? Do you think they're chickens and dogs?! These guys are using a Law of the Destruction Path! ...Wait a minute, as I remember, you haven't even entered the Martial Emperor's Realm yet, right? Tsk tsk~ I thought I was arrogant enough, but the world is indeed full of crazy people.." Holak himself did not know whether Robin was lying or truly crazy.

"..." Robin maintained his smile and said nothing

Thinking about it, the number of trump cards in his possession had accumulated without him even chasing after them, the simplest one of them that everyone had already seen was the Master Heavenly Law of Space-Time... Robin recently developed a Space-Piercing Tattoo by placing pieces of the Major Heavenly Law of Time that appear when needed, using that divine tattoo, he will easily be able to kill a Marshall or two before space-time begins to destroy his foundations!

But in a battle of this size, individual glory is worthless. Even if he killed a hundred Martial Emperors, the numerical superiority in their favor would still be terrifying. He cannot afford to make the same mistake as what happened in the war against Hoffenheim and intervene them find himself unconscious for weeks or months, Not in a situation like this... Remaining calm and finding solutions to victory with minimal losses is his sole responsibility.

"..But honestly, I can admit, this was good. you hid this flying ability very well, but unfortunately, if this is all you rely on, you will be disappointed."

"Oh, why is that?" Robin replied with a smile, his eyes shining slightly with gold as she hovered over the three battlefields located under the Great Heaven Seal Array.

"Raise your face and look up, buddy. You poked the hornet's nest and I'm afraid you have nothing to protect yourself with, hehe." Holak replied, and then the two focused on the battle above for a bit

"Crush them, CRUSH THEM!!"

"Hack them!!"

"FUUUUCKKK!!"

The Martial Emperors of the Great Serpent Empire were going crazy above, seeing their teammates being slaughtered above the city, and the hideous Battle of the Terra Beasts was enough pressure on them, but what was happening in their main army now was the straw that broke the camel's back.

They may have had the intention of rescuing their colleagues from the five besieged fleets, but they were still strangers to them. As for those being killed at this moment, they were their comrades and subordinates who had accompanied them for years. furthermore, If those soldiers were killed, the strength of their fleets would collapse, and even worse... if they lost all those forces today, the power of their entire Empire would collapse!

And also all their spaceships are down there. If they are destroyed, it will bring another catastrophe. Regardless, they will be trapped here for a very long time with no way to send messages to their home planet. They had been working on these ships for thousands of years until they formed these fleets!

If the ships of the 21 Fleet were all destroyed, while all the first, second, and third stages users of the Laws were killed, the power of the Great Serpent Empire would be done for, they would go back thousands of years, it will be impossible for them to maintain the rest of the

eight planets!

*This madness must stop... It must stop!!* The minds of all the Great Serpent Emperors shouted at the same time

The Great Serpent Martial Emperors were no longer fighting as the stronger party in the equation, but rather like someone who saw dogs attacking his son, they began to burn their blood and press forward with full force, not considering their own safety.

The number of deaths from them and from the demon also began to multiply at a scary pace, so far 60 have fallen on both sides, and it is still going up by the minute. Even the human Martial Emperors around the Warlords have begun to fall, so far 15 of them have been killed, and the Warlords themselves have begun to receive heavy attacks!

And they were not the only ones who became like this... The Martial Emperors of the five fleets inside the city saw two of their generals fall one after the other, and they themselves became 230 after they started the battle with 400... When they saw that the support at the top was delayed and they saw that their main army was being raped outside the city, They began to act suicidal as well, they all started burning their blood and fighting without reserve, and they matched the madness of the Martial Emperors of Jura!

Robin smiled seeing this, and muttered: "So this is what it feels like to be the one who corners

the rabbit..."
