620 A glimmer of hope
40 kilometers from the steep hill--
*Swoosh*
Robin stopped in mid-air and then pointed down, "I finally found a hill that Jabba has not leveled to the ground yet. Although it is small, it will suffice."
*Swoosh* *Swoosh*
Zara and Emily floated past Robin as well and focused on the hill below
While Emily's mind was busy wondering what would be asked of her, Zara couldn't contain herself any longer, "Dad, why did you bring us all this distance? What exactly are we going to do?"
"Firstly because I can still hear the sounds of celebrations up the hill from here, especially the colony below them celebrating as if there was a festival going on. I don't think those annoying people will stop anytime soon. Why would they celebrate the success of the Warlord Experiment anyway? Don't they know we're still at war? Robin laughed and shook his head
"They are celebrating especially BECAUSE we are in a state of war, Dad. Every day comes a new list of soldiers' deaths that establishes a state of sadness across the colonies. They long for anything that makes them happy.." Zara explained with a gentle smile.
"You're right, that's why I let them do what they want." Robin nodded and then looked at Emily, "The second reason we came here is because the experiment we are going to do must be somewhere in the wild, otherwise whether the experiment fails or succeeds it will cause huge damage to the steep hill. After all, the technique that Emily trained on is the same technique that Jabba used to destroy his body from the inside during his fight against the Warlord. Perhaps after looking at him now, you can guess the consequences of anything that goes wrong."
"Your Excellency, please give me your order, whether I succeed or fail, I will be happy to contribute." Emily placed her hand on her heart and bowed slightly, but her calm tone did not hide the sound of her heartbeat, which began to accelerate.
Robin was silent for a moment, then laughed in a low voice, "Don't worry, whoever reaches the rank of Emperor will not be foolish or without talent. I am confident that you can implement the technique with utmost precision."
After Emily nodded, Robin pointed towards the small hill below, "You are from the Trent Family from the Sacred Tree Continent, which means you are experienced in the Major Heavenly Law of Plants, I want you to use a Fourth Stage Rapid Germination attack on this hill."
"That technique from the Fourth Stage? But Your Excellency--"
Before Emily could finish her words, Robin placed his hand on her shoulder, "Don't worry, how come I don't know about the problem of using the Fourth Stage of Laws? This is exactly why I gave you the Superior Energy Control Technique."
"Your Excellency, you mean..?" Emily furrowed her eyebrows slightly
"I realize that you understood what I wanted you to do since you learned the uses of that technique, but that's okay, let me explain to you clearly... The problem with the fourth stage of the laws is that they require a large amount of energy in a short period of time, energy that cannot be gathered by normal methods, so we have to gather it in other ways~ And here comes the role of the superior energy control technique, the technique invented by Jabba that can make you control the energy strands from the moment they leave the center of the energy pool until they reach the palm of your hand. All you need to do is accelerate the movement of those energy strands to twice the normal rate."
But a shout brought Robin out of his dreams, "Headquarters Head!!"
When Robin looked at Emily again, he found that her glow had gone out and she began to fall from the sky like a doll whose ropes had been cut...
*poof*
Zara quickly picked her up and began pumping life energy into her body as she carried her to a nearby safe area, "Headquarters Head Emily! Headquarters Head, can you hear me?"
"Calm down, there is no need to panic. Do you think I will harm my people?" Robin came to their side and took Emily's hand with his eyebrows furrowed, then activated the Eye of Truth
After about a minute, Robin let out a sigh and then gently left her hand on her stomach to rest, "As I thought, Her body has not received permanent damage. You can say that her body is in shock because it has never been exposed to such pressure before. With some rest, she will be fine."
"Really? Hooh~" Zara breathed a sigh of relief as well. Emily was one of the few who felt comfortable talking to her from time to time, then she looked at her adoptive father, "Dad, this method is very dangerous. Using it during battles will do more harm than good."
Robin shrugged his shoulders and looked away, "I never said I would distribute it to the Martial Emperors now. The technique still needs a lot of adjustment, but finally, I have something to build upon, finally, there is hope on the horizon... there is hope." Then he started clenching his hands so hard that they started making strange noises
*Rumble* *earthquake*
Suddenly the ground began to move as if it were the end of the world, the clouds started to disappear and the atmosphere began to turn grey!
"What is happening?!" Zara flinched and took a defensive position next to Emily
Robin looked around for a few seconds and then shook his head, "It seems that Julian and Eric have arrived on the battlefield, so what is happening now is that Tree Father Labikan has decided to use all of his refinement. Maybe it will be to antagonize more Warlords or something, he is putting everything on the line in this battle. "
"More Warlords? ...Are you going to the battlefield?"
"No need. Julian is enough to destroy at least 5 of them, and Eric being with him decides the battle before it begins. Labikan simply took his last breath." Robin smiled and then went and carried Emily in his arms, "Let's go back to the steep hill, I will settle a few things with the headquarters first, and I want you to spend a few days with Emily until she wakes up, then you can do whatever pleases you after that~ as you see, the war on Greenland wouldn't last much longer."
"What about you?" Zara asked quickly, her adoptive father's tone indicating that he wanted to be alone again
"Me? ...I'm going to the Farm Planet."
