Lord of the Truth

Chapter 446 Out

3 months after the start of the Planet Greenland invasion Plan--

”AAHHHHHH---- ...”

The sun shone, announcing the start of another usual day over the steep hill, with the usual cold wind, usual birds chirping, and a usual infernal scream coming from the prisonersʼ tent~

The sounds of heartbreaking screams were a heavy burden for everyone when Robin first started his *interrogation*, but it became the norm after several days had passed... Itʼs still bothersome, but you can force yourself to think of something else, you can ignore it as if it isnʼt there, like the sound of a field cricket, for example!

These were not the cries of one, two, or even a hundred prisoners, but rather countless white humanoid creatures who entered that tent as prisoners of war after Elizabeth ordered for them to be hunted down, but they did not leave that tent as respected prisoners of war, but rather as body parts carried in garbage bags.

No one knew what was happening in that tent, and no one cared either, as long as what was happening would benefit their cause... This is how war is.

*Shaa*

”Haa.. Haa.. Haa..”

The only unusual thing that happened today is that Robin himself rushed through the tentʼs canvas door for the first time since he entered it, and he gasped loudly.

*swoosh*

”Your Excellency! It is not normal for you to go out by yourself. Do you want anything? Shall I bring you another batch of prisoners?” Elizabeth came quickly when she heard the news of Robinʼs exit from the prisonersʼ tent and asked

”Haa... Hoo… No, there is no need to capture more of them~” Robin let out a long snort and then crossed his arms as if trying to move his stiff body, then continued with a big bright smile on his face, ”How is Zara, I want to see her, why didnʼt she come with you?”

Elizabeth smiled and replied excitedly, ”Her Highness is passing by the victims of the lightning strike, there are still injuries embedded within their bones from that brutal attack, but the good news is that most of their wounds have already healed and they are once again in a position where they are allowed to fight and even display more than 80% of their original strength, Her Highness says that the life energy will be enough to treat the rest of the injuries as well, but in the long term..”

”Hah, Her Highness Zara? She must love that title.” Robyn laughed out loud, ”Hmmm, what else is there about the hill, is everything okay?”

”Of course, since Jabba advanced with most of the army that day, no one bothers us here anymore, so we took advantage of this opportunity to extend the energy dome array to cover the entire hill, and then the Rune Masters turned to help the Divine Weapon Makers make the Space Portal, itʼs almost 95% complete. It will be ready to connect to one of the Portals of Planet Jura during this week!”

”Oh? Very well... After the Space Portal is set up weʼll have a back door to leave in case things go wrong again. This will give us more choices while we are here.” Robin nodded with apparent happiness as he watched the huge arch being constructed in the middle of the hilltop

”Your Excellency, are you...” Elizabeth hesitated a bit and then asked, ”Are you done with what you were doing inside the tent?”

She believed, like everyone else, that Robinʼs seclusion in the prisonersʼ tent would end within a day or two after he finished *interrogating* the 16 prisoners inside the tent, but he left after more than two months!!

She tried more than once to enter with the batches of new prisoners to tell him that the situation with Jabba was not good and that he should go out to give orders, but he continued to answer in the same way: *Send me more prisoners and tell Jabba to do what he sees fit.*

But seeing him finally out, and even asking about the situation...

”I am.” Robin nodded with a smile, ”It took longer than I expected due to my soul injury, but I guess I have a pretty good idea of what is happening on this planet now….”

”Excellent!!” Elizabeth rejoiced when she heard this and shouted loudly, but her features quickly sank again as she spoke seriously, ”Jabba and the rest were about to make a big move, you should hold the reins again before they start!!”

”Hmm, big move?” Robinʼs big smile waned and he asked, ”What is going on over there?”

”Itʼs going to be a long explanation here. Youʼd better go and see for yourself...” Elizabeth shook her head. ”They are stationed near here. If you move now you will reach them in a few minutes.”

”A few minutes?! … Understood.” Robin furrowed his brows tightly upon hearing this…

Before entering this tent, Robin gave orders for Jabba to withdraw for a distance of 500 kilometers from the hill, this distance he would need a few hours to cover if he went running on his feet at his full speed, especially in such a thick forest, how is it possible that he would go in a few minutes?!

This means one thing, they have retreated so much that they are close to the hill...

*A few minutes* What Elizabeth said sounded like a little sentence, but it said a lot.

------------------------------

25 minutes later -- 75 kilometers down the hill -- inside a large golden tent

The atmosphere inside the tent was highly charged. 

If an insect entered by chance, it would most likely be stunned and die immediately from the vibrations of the compressed energy in the place.

Jabba, Caesar and Victoria, Old Gu, and dozens of old experienced Sages and those at the peak sage level, all of them were looking towards a large map in the middle of the tent with sunken brows and sweat rolling down their forehead.

It seemed as if each and every one of them was about to make a life-or-death decision...

”...What do we do now?” One of the elder Sages spoke in a heavy voice

”And what should we do? Letʼs continue what we started and draw back again...”

Caesar struck him hard on the thigh and yelled, ”We canʼt go back any further! If we go back any further weʼll come back up the hill, We canʼt endanger His Excellency again!”

”Why do we have to go back? Dealing with those rabbles with good well doesnʼt do us any good, let us kill them all!” Victoria spoke with a strong killing intent

Old Gu shook his head, ” Do I need to remind you that those things managed to surround us and would have nearly destroyed us had it not been for His Excellencyʼs wise leadership? and the local humans have forces equal to the humanoid creatures, Would *killing them all* really be that simple?”

”Hmph, no one is listening to me, keep listening to Jabba then and letʼs see where heʼs going to withdraw us to this time!”

When Victoria said those words, everyone turned to look at the blue giant who would not stop massaging his forehead

The decision he will take now will be fatal for the campaign on the planet Greenland, and may even be the difference between life and death for all members of the expedition...

*Shaa*

”Second Commander, I have important news!!”

”What is it? Did the local humans start attacking?!” Jabba quickly asked when a high-level sage suddenly walked in on them

Enthusiastically, the sage continued, ”No, but itʼs more important than that! His Excellency Robin was seen approaching us quickly.”
