Lord of the Truth

Robin steadied himself, hovering near the upper border of the dome, as he watched tens of thousands of his soldiers emerge from the dome one after another, raising their shields with one hand and launching attacks with the other.

After the last soldier exited, the wall of the white flame dome behind him immediately closed, and seconds later all the other holes in the dome were closed as well…

The exit of those forces attracted the attention of the Saints and Sages of the humanoid white creatures and a fierce battle immediately started up the hill, all the attacks that had been descending on the White Flame Dome previously now started descending upon the soldiers of the Golden battalion instead, relieving most of the pressure on the dome once again.

But even though the enemies numbered a little more than twenty-two thousand while the number of soldiers of the Golden battalion that emerged from the dome reached forty thousand, in addition to the quality of the Law Techniques and Divine Weapons all in the favor of the Golden battalion as well, the battle was not one-sided at all.

As expected, the high ground always has the advantage...

The superiority of the soldiers of the Golden Battalion in numbers and equipment did not contribute to anything except that they were able to preserve their lives and balance the equation against their flying enemies, and perhaps if it were not for Old Gu leading 500 of the strongest Sages in the Golden Battalion now and moving them like an arrow penetrating the ranks of the enemies, the scales would have tilted in favor of humanoid white creatures already.

But this balance did not last long.

After only a quarter of an hour, the balance began to tilt clearly in favor of the Golden Battalion!

After a quarter of an hour had passed without those lightning clouds appearing again, the members of the Golden Battalion began to gain confidence to fight with all their might again, Old Gu and the Sages above started to press harder, and the rest of the army below gradually moved to heavely attack instead of passive defense

Especially the Wind Forces who combined a Minor Heavenly Law of the Space Path with the Major Heavenly Law of Wind, their ability to hunt down enemies from below with their arrows was the golden battalion's greatest weapon, they single-handedly caused over 80% of the total kills so far.

The number of deaths among Saints and Sages among the enemies began to increase rapidly, They were dying even faster than in their battle against Alexander and the Six Thousand Sages!

"Heh~" Robin let out a long sigh when he saw this, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad...

He was now seeing with his own eyes the difference between performing the task by force and performing it with conviction.

The transformation that the Golden Battalion was witnessing now told him one thing, they absolutely did not trust his judgment a while ago and were afraid to get out, and now that they had experienced for themselves that there was a hope of annihilating a large number of those Saints and Sages before a new attack wave arrived, they began to put much more effort.

Even the Burton Family Saints who had come out with killing intent were starting to show higher martial abilities now, apparently even they were a bit worried when they were coming out.

There is no doubt that soldiers need practical experience to deal with these difficult situations, but the most important thing is that they need to trust their commander blindly. They currently do not have the first, and they do not know Robin well to have the second either.

Gaining experience is a bit easy, all he has to do is throw them into battle after battle and whoever survives will surely become an expert.

But the second is more difficult, as he personally has to win every battle he throws them in in order to gain their absolute trust, only then will they carry out Robin's orders without a single bit of hesitation, because they are sure his order is the right one, not because they have to do it!

'I think it's an inevitable process~' Robin thought, then looked down at the walls of the White Flame Dome

"One, Two!"

"ARGHHHHH"

After greatly reducing the pressure on them, the Fire Forces and the Life Forces returned to advance again and compensate for the steps they forcibly retreated a short while ago.

In those short few minutes they retreated in, there were already tens of thousands of humanoid white creatures passing through both sides of the dome and surrounding it once again, but now that they have regained their breath, it is time to rectify this mistake.

The path up the hill was quickly blocked again and a large number of hordes of  humanoid white creatures were incinerated, as for those who actually managed to reach the top of the hill would have to face 40,000 soldiers of the Golden Battalion, so they could be considered dead already~

The pressure also eased a lot on the plant forces, some of them even left their places and went to help the life forces treat the fallen sages.

Seeing that everything had settled down again, Robin's gaze fell toward the middle of the dome, on 17 milky white individuals kneeling on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs... They were the prisoners who were caught by the wind forces after activating the dome.

*swoosh*

With a quick movement, Robin appeared in front of them, with his majestic golden armor and golden eyes exuding clear killing intent... His presence forced the few Wind Force soldiers guarding the prisoners to bow without thinking.

Robin moved his eyes slowly at those prisoners, trying to understand something from their reactions to his arrival with this intent to kill in front of them, but he did not find anything of fear, awe, or even some panic... The only thing he found was a more intense killing intent!

Robin furrowed his brows, the most dangerous thing he had witnessed since arriving in this world was not the numbers of those creatures nor their schemes nor even the lightning attack, but rather their intention to die for victory.

He, the ruler of Planet Jura, saw for himself what happens when he gives orders that the soldiers think may lead to death, so he knows very well what it means to have such soldiers under the command of any commander, in fact, he is beginning to feel some envy towards the person who moves them...

*THUD*

Robin took another two steps toward the strongest prisoner among them, with a strength roughly equal to a knight at level 14, then he got down on one knee in front of him, then raised his hands and tightly gripped his head, and muttered in a bone-chilling voice, "You have had your mystery long enough, now… Show me everything you know."

Robin's expression turned completely serious, he had intended to do soul research since the moment he arrived on this planet but he basically didn't have enough energy to carry out something high-level like soul research so he had to wait for him to recover with food, and energy gems, but the moment he recovered His health thunderbolts descended and the soul quest plan was postponed again, now the moment had finally arrived...

Now he finally gets to know what really goes on behind the scenes!

'Tsk~ I probably won't be able to get the full truth from this low-ranking knight but capturing a Saint and Sage outside is not a practical idea either... Capturing or killing someone with the strength of a Saint or higher is like the difference between heaven and earth. First, his comrades wouldn't let him get caught, secondly, he could simply blow up himself if he was caught, and--' Robin thought while activating the Soul Search Technique, but his train of thought was suddenly cut off.

'hmm? What the..?'

"AAAAHHHHH!!!" Suddenly Robin's cry resounded throughout the dome

"Your Excellency!!"

"Ah! What do we do?!"

"AARRGHHHH! LET ME GO YOU SON OF A---- !"  Robin cried out loudly as his features turned to the worst, "AAAAHHHH!!!!! If YOU DON"T GIVE ME A PATH, THEN I WILL TAKE YOU DOWN WITH ME!!!!"

*BOOM*

"Your Excellency!!"

Immediately after Robin's last shout, a powerful wave of formless energy shook every soul inside and outside the dome, before anyone realized what was happening, Robin was lying 50 meters away from his original place, passed out, as if his pupils were pushed back into his skull...

"Ahh! His Excellency has fallen!!"

The Wind Saints ran towards Robin, Zara and a few sages from the Life Forces let go of what they had in their hands, and ran towards him like madmen.

The pillar supporting their sky had fallen... everything seemed to move in slow motion for a moment...

Only the people who could not leave their positions held their ground, but they felt their hearts being ripped out of their chests

-----

"His Excellency…" muttered one of the Fire Forces responsible for feeding the dome of white flames, looking down toward his feet with eyes filled with tears.

Then, he looked up at the faces of the humanoid white creatures with eyes filled with killing intent and shouted, "I swear that if something happened to His Excellency, I would not forgive… you…?"

Before that soldier could complete his threat, he stopped and opened his eyes to the last of them.

The humanoid white creatures outside were standing in their places looking at each other in stupefaction, when they heard the flame soldier's cry, a look of fear appeared on them and they started to retreat.

Not only them but all the Saints and Sages above also stopped and started to look around in shock, then each one shot off in a different direction, not looking back again.

...The battle has stopped.
