BXBX NOVEL Chapter 298 The City Of Hope
After another three years... Somewhere in the middle of the Desert of Death
"I still can\'t believe it! We will see the Lord today!!"
"Oh My God, I dream of meeting him every day, he is my savior and my ideal!"
"Hi guys, what are you talking about? what lord?"
"HAH? Are you new here? The Lord is the one who created this safe haven for us, he will grace us with his presence today!!"
"wh- whaaat? his Excellency is finally coming?!"
Amidst all the excitement and hustle, someone pulled his spiritual sense from his ring and opened his eyes, then shouted at the top of his voice, "Shut your mouths and get to your positions, the Lord is about to arrive!"
*RAAF RAAF*
Suddenly a huge Draco, carrying a giant race member and a human on its back, stopped in front of a huge wall and began to beat his wings softly in midair.
*THUD*
"We salute our great Lord! We salute our great Savior!!"
From above the Draco, Robin looked down at a sea of bodies of varying shape and size, dozens of different races side by side without distinction as more than a million people were lined up in front of the high walls, all of them kneeled and shouted in unison when they saw that Robin had arrived.
A sincere smile appeared on his face for the first time in years when he saw this majestic scene!
As the years passed, Robin\'s longing to return to his homeland increased, and his isolation and depressed features became even more visible.
Lately, he literally was no longer interested in anything going on around him, after making sure that everything was on the right path, he put his entire being into meditation and trying to strengthen himself, only himself...
Seeing this, Jabba began insisting on him intensely Recently to come and visit the sect, and finally, after he finished drawing a new tattoo on his body, he decided to finally come to have a change in scenery... Only now did he understand why Jabba was pressing him to come.
The look of joy, hope, and reverence in the eyes of these people says everything that needs to be said, even though he was using them to build his own army, Even though he only saw them as numbers... He still changed the lives of each and everyone here for the better.
Since he got his eyes on the Truth he has been empowering some already powerful entities or scheming to destroy some enemy, but not once did he improve the lives of someone else, not to this degree at least
Even though this seems useless to any version of Robin... This place that he sees for the first time felt like it is his greatest achievement in this world, and perhaps his greatest achievement ever.
"Let\'s move..." Robin gently patted Draco and began to gently fly forward after it let out a loud shriek
"Lord, please look at me!!"
"WOAAAAHH, my dream is to shake hands with you, please let me do it once!!"
"Lord, please make me a disciple!"
"His disciple is Jabba, son of Thunder, you idiot, the most talented giant in the entire Eastern Region, Do you really think that the Lord will care for you?"
Even after the Draco crossed the high wall, Robin was shocked by a beautifully organized huge city with high towers everywhere, but what shocked him most was that all its streets were covered with people, hundreds of thousands or perhaps even millions, all of them were out on the streets looking up with dreamy eyes and jumping with happiness
Even more, This place was not only about high buildings and residents numbers... around the central residence area Robin can see the stables of tamed beasts playing around, fields full of tall fruitful trees and green gardens, and even waterfalls rushing from underground...
This place is a paradise and a real capital that any kingdom on his home planet would be proud of!
What made it more strange was that he still sees newly built infrastructure and raw materials for further expansion laying around!
Robin waved at the sea of bodies beneath him, smiling, and at the same time asked Jabba, "They are... too many... What exactly is the population of this place?"
"This is the city of hope, the first city to be built in the Desert of Death, its current population is about 17 million, the city still needs a lot of work and expansion, but it is still very good for its young age.." Jabba spoke with a smile as he stood behind Robin
"17 million people…" Robin was stunned when he heard the number
"I know I know, you expected more, this is not the total number so don\'t worry, there are 7 other cities being built nearby and each of them holds about 5 million people inside."
7 other big cities?! Shocked Robin looked at Jabba and stopped waving at his fans, this size and population are enough to make every one of these cities into a major Capital of its own!
"That\'s normal, the numbers of inferior creatures, Ahem, I mean the creatures that were heartbreakingly suppressed by giants are very large within the Land of Lightning alone, and that\'s not it... there are still batches coming daily from all the tribes we have conquered, I heard that the Sect Council is planning to set up 3 more cities soon..." Jabba replied
"...Wow" Robin didn\'t know what to say anymore, The sect\'s project had gone a lot further than he expected.
*raaf raaf raaf*
After a few minutes, Robin found himself in front of the tallest building in the City of Hope, where about 40 individuals of different races were lined up next to each other, with one look Robin knew that they weren\'t ordinary.
Even the shortest of them was an imp with the physical power of a low-level Dragon, and a saint at the same time!
Not only the imp, each and every one of them looked strong and wise, Robin was certain that each of them lived for a thousand years at least...
Jabba made the Draco descend in front of them, then He and Robin came down to stand in front of the forty
"We salute our Lord, we salute the founder, we salute the sect leader." Without a tiny bit of hesitation, they all spoke in one breath and gave a full bow
Robin smiled upon seeing this, he knew who they are at first sight, "There\'s no need for these formalities, dear Secr Elders, you are the heart of this great entity, and you are not fit to bow to anyone."
"We are nothing without your appearance, without you, we would now be lying in our settlements waiting for the death of our children as usual... You are the one who made all this possible, Your Excellency, the third heaven\'s chosen." Orzon came forward and spoke, this was not his natural behavior in front of Robin, but his style was completely different because there were a lot of attendees, "Please come with us to the council."
Robin smiled and stepped forward, Orzon waited until Robin was one step ahead of him, then followed him next to Jabba, then the rest of the Elders followed in two rows, silently and respectfully.
