Chapter 494 The Historical Wizards
"In response to your Excellency, the information we have now regarding so-called Wizards came to us by collecting data from the four local human tribes who are currently working with us: the Northern Fury Tribe, the Grazing Rats Tribe, the Plains Tribes, and the Night Birds Tribes. however, the records were far from complete as each of them consisted only of one or two clear sentences while the rest is torn or nowhere to be found, so even after collecting every piece of data we could, the storyline made up is still full of loopholes," Emily responded quickly
"Hmm? How is it possible that the forces Hoffenheim proudly threatened me with are not known? I remember Fugon himself talking about it when I first talked to him..." Robin raised his eyebrows slightly.
"This isn't very strange, Your Excellency, according to their recorded history the first and last appearance of the wizards was when the mass attack on Father Tree Flores occurred about 190,000 years ago, how many accidents can happen to some paper books through all these years? It's surprising that they have any history on the matter at all and that only shows how important this information is to them..."
Then she added, "More than 190,000 years ago the human forces choose to attack a Tree Father and get rid of him in a fast campaign. They Father Tree Flores and indeed they dug deep into the domination circle until they almost touched the main body of the Tree Tather, that is when a huge creature appeared out of nowhere. That creature was so powerful that it was able to single-handedly stop the advance of the united Human army until the support of the rest of the Tree Fathers arrived and the united Human army was wiped out, One of the stories even says that had it not been for that Wizard, the human army would have been able to hold on even after the arrival of reinforcements. In fact, the only common factor in the ancient books of the four local tribes in this regard is a note telling them never to pressure a Tree Father too much and force him to bring out Wizards ever again!"
Robin was surprised by what he heard... There are indeed several holes in the story as Emily said, "Hmm? A giant creature? There are a lot of giant creatures around, What exactly is the origin of that creature and what kind of power does it have? And why is this single creature called *Wizards*?"
"This information must have been lost a long time ago, Your Excellency, but it's not that strange after all these years, there is nothing about the wizards other than what I have just mentioned" Emily shrugged her shoulders and continued, "When your esteemed generals pressed for more information, the Grazing Rats Tribe Chief tried to communicate with the rest of the human tribes in order to get the information they have regarding the Wizards, but they refused to cooperate."
"Huh? Why would they refuse to hand over manuscripts for something so outdated? Has Clan Chief Sherver tried to entice them with some benefits?"
"Of course, he tried. He even offered them the archeological treasures of his tribe. He, Tribe Chief Fugon, Mr. Hydar, and Mr. Dibas also tried after pressure from the Generals Council, but they were all rejected as well. Apparently, the so-called human alliance considered them traitors." Emily gently raised her glasses and replied, but her displeasure was evident
"Traitors?!…." Robin furrowed his eyebrows so tightly that they almost touched,
'Who did they betray exactly? The four tribes are fighting the Tree Fathers, isn't this the greatest achievement a human tribe can do? Instead of helping them, they are called traitors?! Is it because they didn't ask for the alliance's permission first, or because of my presence? ...if they are considered traitors for following me, then it seems that subjugating the rest of the planet's human tribes will not be so easy.' Robin clasped his hands across his chest and sank into a long silence.
Then, he raised his right hand to place it under his chin and began to mumble, "A huge creature of great strength, huh? Should I give the order to unite the Legions into one army?...No, all the Legions have thousands of Sages and tens of thousands of Saints who work in a high degree of cooperation and possess a very fine balance in terms of the variety of Heavenly Laws used, as well as arming with divine equipment, single-use talismans, and even Attacking Divine Tattoos, each legion of the nine within the Tree Father's sphere of control is an army that can build and defend a stronghold on a foreign planet for a very long time, even The Eleventh Legion, represented by the Northern Fury Tribe, has their own abilities and history that makes them stand their ground in the face of most adversities. If a single legion cannot stand up to one gigantic beast, then the whole army cannot either, on the contrary, this will only increase the number of casualties…"
"...Should I change anything in the orders given to the generals, Your Excellency?" Emily waited a few minutes before asking in a low voice
"...No, just put more stress on putting the lives of the soldiers first and withdraw immediately if they encounter something they are not capable of." Robin sighed and put his hands behind his back
"At your command! I see that something huge might accrue very soon, Please give me permission to return to the headquarters and supervise the communication with the generals and coordinate between them personally." Emily bowed slightly
"It's alright, I understand that the headquarters officials are always busy." When Robin's voice entered Emily's ear she almost stiffened her back to thank him and then turned to leave, but she heard him continue, "By the way, take me with you to headquarters, I don't think I will be able to focus on anything during the next week, so I'd like to take the opportunity and see what happened in the Empire over the past years."
"You want to know everything that happened in the last four years… in one week?" Emily was surprised by her emperor's words very much, as those events include the wars of Planet Nihari and everything that is going on in Planet Jura and even the trade with Planet Nihari! How many daily events occur on a scale like this?
Robin smiled at her response and then signaled her to walk in front of him towards the headquarters... Anxiety will not let him return to his research and training in peace until those wizards show up and know the final result of the battle against them.
Also, he doesn't know which legion will be attacked first so it would be better for him to stay by the side of the space portal to protect it as there is a high probability that the steep hell might just be the target of the wizards! So the best thing he can think of to get through the next week is to find out what was going on around him.
Next week is bound to be a very long one on all sides...
