Lord of the Truth

Chapter 289 Deadline

3 more years passed in silence...

Or at least, they passed silently inside the biggest training hall of the Central Divine Tattoo Academy.

On the outside, however, the Lightning Tribe has never been more active in its history.

After the successive military campaigns against the Water Tribe, the Lightning Tribe regained control of all their ancient lands piece by piece, and then began to penetrate into the lands of the Water Tribe and take large bits with every campaign!

Especially after Thandor's popularity increased among his subjects and his political party became stronger, and after he managed to loot more Energy Pearls and had the ability to buy more Divine Weapons from his son, Thandor had no intention of stopping the attacks!!

After ascertaining this fact, the Water Tribe moved all its army towards the border with the Lightning Tribe and a few battles broke out, some of which were so big that Jabba was forcibly summoned to participate in them.

The war claimed the lives of large numbers of people on both sides, but after the emergence of the new strength of their tribe and the restoration of their lands, the giants of the Lightning tribe rushed to enlist in the army one by one in an unprecedented scene

And this is not all.. the internal affairs were not specifically silent and peaceful either!

The attacks of terrorist groups have increased exponentially, making the peacekeepers crazy, but the strange thing is that they are targeting certain objects unlike what they are customized to

There are no more indiscriminate attacks on the cities of giants, and there have been no killings in any recent attack by the inferior races' terrorist groups, they just appear to take what they want and then leave silently... It is more appropriate to call them honorable bandits by now!

The only problem now is that the targets of terrorist groups have become more numerous and it is not easy to predict them anymore, which eventually doubled the losses of the Lightning tribe!

Building materials, seeds, blueprints for making tools and weapon-making furnaces, exhibits of intelligent creatures, ingredients for luxurious food such as eggs of powerful creatures, energy stones and pearls... No one knew what terrorist groups were doing with all these!!

It was like they suddenly abandoned their cause and became businessmen in some other tribe!

But the anger of the crowds of giants towards them started to decrease little by little because of the disappearance of the killings accidents and random attacks on their cities, only the great merchants and officials hated them to the core!

Two army divisions were moved and included in the peacekeeping forces to use them as they wished in order to stop losses and kill off the terrorist groups, indirectly, a second war front was opened within the lands of the Lightning tribe...

Another strange thing is the phenomenon of the recent outbreak of Demons, they recently became abandoned like locusts!

Horror spread for a while after a rumor spread that the noses of the demons began to see the giants even if they used the fragrance of concealment, as that became apparent due to the many *incidents* of killing giants responsible for taking care of demons' nests recently.

There is one survivor of a similar incident, where the giant said that he was doing his usual job of killing the cubs with his mates when suddenly an adult demon approached them and started using his lard gills to smell forcefully around them, then started snarling and waving his claws randomly around him as if trying to hit something

Then he summoned the rest of the demons In the nest and they all started beating randomly where they were, until they found and killed all his colleagues as he managed to escape

By repeating similar incidents recently, the number of giants volunteering for this profession began to decrease little by little until everyone was afraid to approach them, and therefore the number of demons began to increase at a terrible speed...

In a record period, they multiplied many times and left their nests for hunting, but it seems like Heaven really favor the giant race as all of the demons headed towards the settlements of inferior beings and left the giants' cities alone!

Although the number of inferior beings in the settlements was rapidly decreasing, there are entire settlements that vanished in thin air with no one living anymore, no one really cared...

The operations of the army abroad and the operations against the terrorist groups inside made the interest in what happens to the inferior being's settlements the least to worry about!

However, a few army divisions were assigned to fight off the demons and reduce their numbers before it became a problem, thus opening a Third war front for Thandor to deal with...

...As for inside the biggest Training Hall of the Central Divine Tattoos Academy, everything is rather boring.

The 200 cultivators became Divine Weapon Masters in every sense of the word, every single one of them could completely finish a weapon with the same level of fire bracelet Jabba showed to Robin before!

The special workshop that Robin requested sends weapons and special equipment whenever they finish a batch, and Jabba left his trusted men to buy weapons from everywhere and send them to the hall where the divine weapons Masters work on them silently

Then daily a covered chariot goes out and heads towards the Lightning Tribe Chief's mansion, while Amon and his team of hundreds of Demons stationed just outside the capital enter at night to take all the excess divine gear and deliver it to the sect's location, their superior sense of smell, as well as their pure spiritual sense, made them the perfect choice for infiltration the capital city without anyone discovering them.

As for Robin himself, he did not show himself much during the three years.

Sometimes he goes out to pass on the Divine Weapon Masters to see if he can teach them something, or he quickly asks Jabba about his development in understanding the Master law of Truth and helps him understand things blocking his way or gives him advice...

Otherwise, he does not come out of his room in his apartment at the academy

He didn't take a step outside the academy, he didn't order a new book from the library, he didn't ask about anything going on around him.. he's just either in his room or walking around with his half-dead eyes when he becomes extremely bored.

Perhaps the only thing that could be mentioned about him was that he reached the pinnacle of the Warrior Realm and drew the second stage of the Modified Body Strengthening Divine Tattoo...

It was a big event that concerns inferior beings in Nehari, But still, he didn't even tell anyone about this, Jabba only felt a change in his aura a month later on his usual tour.

Seeing him like this was killing Jabba, but he had nothing to do...

*Inhale*

"Woooo…" Robin let out a long exhale while sitting on his bed, as usual, then inserted his energy into one of the two rings on his hand and sent, "Chief Orzon, the ten-year deadline has arrived... Are you all ready?"

After a few seconds, a voice appeared in his head, "Everyone is waiting for your signal."
