BXBX NOVEL Chapter 426 OUT!
*Step... Step...*
"Your Excellency..!" Old Gu looked around like a madman and called out to Robin at the top of his voice.
Although he realizes that Robin is deeply thinking about what is happening around them, the situation will not wait for him to think deeply, something must be done immediately!
The attacks on the White Flame Dome took an extremely dangerous turn…
Over 22,000 sages and saints outside are raining down attacks on the dome from all directions at the same time, causing enormous pressure on the dome, which was already filled with holes, and although the dome can move the amount of energy available to counter any attack instantly, this puts huge pressure on the life forces...
The Life forces whose number has decreased by half!
And from below, millions of humanoid white creatures charged toward the white flame dome with wrath and vengeful spirit.
Although these creatures are very weak and their attacks pose no threat compared to the attacks descending from above, they use their own bodies as a means of consuming the white flames by throwing themselves at the dome, they also force the dome to use a large amount of energy to block them and prevent them from entering from below
Under all this enormous pressure.. the life forces and the fire forces began to take steps back.
Yes, the steps that they took forward previously to expand the command center and cut off the road in front of the enemy ground hordes, now they are forced to take those steps back again, as the smaller the size of the dome, the easier it will be to control it and defending it, and it will also require less effort and energy
Although no order was issued to the life forces and the fire forces to take those steps back, they had no choice, the white flame dome was about to collapse!
However, this was not without risks, as they took those steps back, a road began to open up from the sides towards the top of the hill, and with that, the dome slowly began to be placed under land siege again...
Although the Plant Forces had no say in the retreat process, however, they were definitely put under pressure no less than Life Forces and Flame Forces, the more the enemy Saints and Sages were left unchecked, the more they tried to attack from underground again, putting them under intense pressure…
Even the Plant Force members who had previously fainted from fatigue earlier weren\'t let off, they were kicked awake and forced to take part in the defense!
Old Gu was not hoping to achieve anything with his shout this time. He knew that someone like Robin would not wait for a shout from him to make a decision!
Rather, it was his way to relieve the sensation of panic he felt. In the end, even a seasoned commander who led an empire for about two thousand years and then oversaw the His son\'s era… He had no idea what was going on right now, and he definitely wouldn\'t want to be the one giving the orders in a situation like this.
But to his surprise, Reuben finally took his eyes off Alexander\'s body and spoke as he pointed towards the top of the hill, "Why are you still here? Don\'t you realize what just happened? Whoever he isn\'t participating in the flame dome or healing, or not participating in defending the headquarters ground or participating in making arrays... Get the hell out of the dome immediately and fight!!"
"What? This…" Robin\'s sudden order took everyone by surprise
The blood that was boiling in their veins a moment ago subsided, the shouts asking Robin to think of a solution disappeared, and the looks that almost penetrated Robin\'s body were neutralized...
Everyone stood still and with uncertain looks.
With a quick glance at the faces around him, Robin realized what was happening... They thought he had decided to fight to their Death.
But even the intent to fight to the death was no longer present, they were terrified after those thunderbolts landed, and the option of direct confrontation did not occur to them for a moment.
Earlier they were army against army, even if those humanoid white things had tens of times their numbers they would still dare to fight, but now...?
Those thunderbolts are out of their league, they are not something they can confront.
If a mortal encountered a lion and had nowhere to run to he would surely try to put up a fight, convincing himself that he might scare the lion away after he losses a limp or two, with this thought in his head he would fight bravely to *the end* because he would have hope until he draws his last breath
But...
What happens when a mortal meets the 200 feet long blood earth Python? He would just stand there with tears in his eyes and piss in his pants, fight? It wouldn\'t cross his mind.
Robin understood this, and if he were in their shoes and had no idea of what is going on, he would also be frightened, who would wish to face such a force? What is the point of even making a confrontation at this point? Perhaps they were all waiting for Robin to think of a plan to escape or surrender.
The courage and enthusiasm of conquering a new planet disappeared irreversibly with those thunderbolts and their survival instinct kicked in.
But the thing is...
Even if Robin wanted to surrender, would those creatures allow him to do so? They look like they want to eat them alive!!
Secondly... Robin did not ask them to go out and fight to their death as they think.
The Six Thousand Thunderbolts...
It contained patterns Robin hadn\'t seen before, having a ridiculously wide range, ignoring the presence of divine armors and the presence of the white flame dome, only striking down the flying individuals... Everything about those lightning bolts hinted at something in the dark, this wasn\'t just a strong enemy\'s all-out attack.
Even ignoring all that, the most important hint is the moment that the attack is activated!
The moment of switching between the exhausted and the new forces... Or rather, the moment of the landing of 6,000 sages.
Those 6,000 sages were the largest number that had flown out of Robin\'s army at one point, and they had been flying above for close to four hours, yet they had been hit the moment they were landing, why?
There are many reasons that might lead to such a decision, but the most logical explanation is that the person controlling the attack was waiting for more members of Robin\'s army, or perhaps all of them to fly up, before activating the attack, but his patience ran out when he felt that those six thousand were approaching the ground, so he decided to finally strike!
What does this say?
Firstly, the person controlling the lightning attack was not watching the battle himself.
If he was watching what was happening inside the dome, he would have known that there were 6,000 more sages who were preparing to come out, if he had waited another minute, he would have struck and killed the 6,000 new sages.
If he waited and struck down Victoria and her sages then it would have been game over for sure, half of his Sages would be completely exhausted and the other half would be half dead, this way Robin\'s main forces would have truly been crippled.
Secondly... that attack cannot be used continuously, otherwise, he would have used it from the beginning and whoever activated it would not have had to wait this long before using it!
It is not like he can relax and watch the amusing fight, he absolutely couldn\'t use it before, and could not wait any longer now, why?
That is simple, for every minute the leader of these humanoid white creatures delayed using these thunderbolts, a saint or sage of his followers was slaughtered, and thousands of his ground forces were killed!
If he can use it from the start he would have saved more than 7,000 sages and saints from his army!
This means that this terrifying attack will probably not be used again for a long time... But how can he convince his forces to go out and fight with their current morale?!
