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 didn't say anything... She didn't 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.

"What's 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, isn't that my dagger? ...It is my dagger! why isn't 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 don't know, I can almost swear it was tied to my waist! Phew~ It's good that he came back to me, maybe I should thank her later... Let's go!"

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 didn't put it to good use, well then, I'll try the palace for a few days!"

Even Flora, who remained silent, felt a shiver in her back... Doesn't 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."
