952 Unexpected guest n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
".....?!" Everyone felt like they were about to lose control.
"Father!! What do you mean you wouldn't believe even if he told you himself? What makes you so sure?!" Caesar was the first to pull himself together and react, then looked at his brother Theo, "Is what Father saying based on the reports of the Shadow Swords? Are there signs that Jabba is still on our side somehow?"
Theo kept his eyes on his father for a moment before sighing and replyed, "...Well he stayed with the Marshal inside the walls of the City of Hope since the war began and didn't move a muscle, maybe that's a sign of something."
"That's not proof of anything, maybe he's just waiting for the right moment, on the contrary, by remaining still he took the Eastern Region out of the game so we couldn't invade it nor benefit from it and we were waiting for a move from them all the time, he put a dagger to our necks just by staying there, that should be a proof against him!" Amon waved forcefully.
"Theo, what else do you have to support what the Lord says?" Sakaar dug his claws into his thigh, not even bothering to give any title to Theo, the son of the Lord.
"Nothing really, everything else says he's cooperating with them wholeheartedly." Theo shrugged, "Our sources say that while the Marshal was in Hope City he asked Jabba for a new technique or item that would prove his worth as a Truth Chosen, and Jabba created a technique for him that could speed up the energy movement in his body by 10%. After testing it on the rest of the soldiers, they found that it speeded up the energy movement in their bodies by up to 30%. Our spy network told us that while monitoring the experiments of the Marshal's guards and the rest of the regular soldiers, they saw a huge difference before and after using it. They all became noticeably stronger, which was one of the reasons why Marshal Lacrosse respected and treated him like an equal recently Jabba." "Is that even possible?" Amon looked around, for the Great Serpent Army to get such a boost in power was terrifying. "Jabba specialized in blood research and obtained the Eye of Truth because of it. If he had a number of demi-serpents to experiment on, then naturally he could invent something that would improve their bloodline." Caesar gritted his teeth and sent a sideways glance at his father, wanting to say a lot but unable to. His father had received many psychological shocks in his life, each one hitting his head like a hammer. In cases like Robin's, there are usually two reactions, the first being that the person becomes suspicious, not trusting even himself and avoiding everyone around him, or he turns to denial and refuses the possibility of receiving another blow... And in his father's case, it seems that he chose the second.
As for Sakar, he sighed, "He was... he was your student."
"....." Robin opened his eyes wide and looked at the ground
*BZZZT*!! While activating the gate to let out the Rune Masters and Divine Blacksmiths, a sudden commotion occurred in it as if it was about to explode, then *BAM* *BAM*
"What's going on?" Theo looked back inside the city
The space inside the portal arch actually made an explosion sound and then spat out something huge, "RAAWWRRR!!"
The thing was about 60 meters long, its head was like a dragon's head and it had two huge hind legs and two front wings instead of arms.
"Was that... Crixus The Great?!"
