Lord of the Truth

Chapter 635 The Imperial City

?*swoosh*

*Shh* *Shhh*

Flora suddenly appeared in front of the two guards, forcing them to stop with difficulty, ”Ah! What do you want from us?!” The scene of Flora, when she was standing loosely behind His Excellency and giving him derogation gazes in front of them, was still stuck in their minds, so her appearance now prompted the two guards to take a defensive position.

Flora didnʼt say anything... She didnʼt seem to hear anything!

Her eyes were stunned and her face looked like a mixture of fear and shock, so she just gently threw the dagger at one of them, then with a *swoosh* she disappeared from in front of them and headed towards the wall to stand behind Robin again.

”Whatʼs wrong with this big woman?” The guard remained in a defensive position until Flora moved away to a safe distance. Only then did he relax a little and look at the object she threw at him. ”...Damn, isnʼt that my dagger? ...It is my dagger! why isnʼt it on my waist?!”

”Oh? You never leave this thing on your side, did you forget it on the wall when you saw His Excellency?”

”...Maybe? I donʼt know, I can almost swear it was tied to my waist! Phew~ Itʼs good that he came back to me, maybe I should thank her later... Letʼs go!”

It was not long before a crowd of old people appeared. They all approached until they stood at a safe distance from the wall and waited until Robin permitted them to come closer. When they arrived, they all bowed and began to introduce themselves. They were all either elders from the Burton family or advisors and senior officers who participated in the climax of the Greenland War

Through a few questions, Robin was reassured about the situation in the imperial capital, its residents, the method of preparing the new generation of young people, and the available education methods. After he was reassured about the basics of life and food resources in the city, and that his research and development team had opened another *Sky Opeinning tower* for them here so that they could help to constantly develop the city,?He decided to leave for Greenland to begin his research on Flora.

But the crowd in front of him did not take this decision lightly, ”Your Excellency, what will the residents of your city say when they learn that their Emperor came to the wall and did not take a step inside? Please at least come and take a look at your palace!”

It didnʼt take the elders long to convince Robin to waste some time in the city and then *visit* his imperial palace which he had never seen before.

This was the first time that Robin entered his imperial city as well, the city that was built with all the riches of the Jura Planet after the Unification War to be a symbol of power and authority, and it is clear from the designs of everything he sees that its city builders took this point into account.

In addition to the high towers that suggest strength and the widespread green spaces that inspire peace with their artificial waterfalls, even the residential areas are dramatic palaces!

At each corner, there is a thick metal rectangle the length of an adult man, the children would place their hands on it for a moment and say something and then go back to racing or doing challenges. When Robin asked about it, he found that these are tablets that can withstand ten thousand Oaths. They were presented by the elders of the city to the public, and at the beginning of every year the runes on the tablets are destroyed, and then new runes are redrawn to be reused.. He even found statues of himself at every crossroads!

In front of the Imperial Palace, even Robin raised his eyebrows, marveling at the genius of the design and the luxury of the construction

The palace was surrounded by a hollow metal fence and beautifully trimmed trees. Since Robin crossed that metal fence, he had to fly for several minutes over vast green spaces and artificial lakes before he reached the palace building!

As for the palace itself, it was in the shape of an octagon, with a huge dome above it. Its color was milky white, without a speck of dust, and it had a strange shine under the sun as if it were made of pearls. Robin knew immediately what stone was used in this building. It was one of the hardest minerals on the planet, but it was not used in making weapons because reforming it is very difficult. The fact that they were able to find this amount of this specific mineral is a miracle in itself. When he asked the elders, they told him that they had bought a quantity of Nihari to complete the construction.

The palace is surrounded by eight smaller buildings, all of which are octagonal as well. The elders explained that these buildings were intended for servants and guards who were chosen at the highest level.

The palace was completely isolated from the city, and the guards and servants were told not to make any unnecessary noises, they could even be evacuated altogether with a signal from Robin, so Robin no longer needed to hide underground to have some privacy.

However, the elders led him to see a network of underground basements. This network of basements took up the entire area of the palace and almost a quarter of the area of the green spaces around it, making it a small underground village! Robin tried to send his soul sense to scan the network of basements and create a map of it in his mind, but he failed to penetrate it, and when he asked, he found that it was one of the properties of the stone designated for building the basements.

Robin soon learned why that stone was chosen for construction. The map of the basement network showed a huge room in the middle, fully equipped for research if Robin insisted on being completely isolated, but it also showed the locations of many well-secured rooms, and between those rooms, there was a huge maze. It was a prison from which there was no escape!

When he asked them what this was, they told him that it was prepared in case he wanted to bring some things or some people to conduct experiments on them, so that each subject had its own room.

When Robin heard this he burst out laughing, ”Hahaha nice, it would be a waste if I didnʼt put it to good use, well then, Iʼll try the palace for a few days!”

Even Flora, who remained silent, felt a shiver in her back... Doesnʼt this mean that she will be the first subject of experiments here? Should you be honored by this?

After a few more tours of the palace and the exchange of some respectful words, the elders left Robin alone in the palace with Flora.

”Haaah~” Robin sat on his huge throne in a huge hall that can seat tens of thousands of people, then smiled at Flora standing in front of him, ”Alright, here we go, what are you waiting for? I want you to ignite everything you see using the fourth stage of the Fire Law! Hahaha.”
