Lord of the Truth

Chapter 244 Talisman Rain

”Tsk~ his disappearance took so long to this time, Where did that human go?” The high-ranking Saint moved the beetle left and right hoping it would pick up something, but it was no use

”Maybe he sensed that we easily caught up with him each time and decided to increase the distance between us before he could nullify whatever he is doing, but little did he know that this is useless! Hahaha, he will never run away from the Emerald-Nosed Beetle!” Another laughed and took a bite of a piece of fruit

Although they are all elite in their field, their positions were completely relaxed, some of them started preparing firewood to grill something, and some even closed their eyes and fell asleep...

It seemed as if they were going on a trip!

But this is understandable, for 5 days this happened again and again!

Every time they are close Robin uses Darkness Heavenly Law Perfect Technique to hide his scent, and they will have to wait until he gets tired and appear again many miles away... and today doesnʼt seem any different!

”Hey! what are you all doing? Our target is dangerous, stop messing around!” The squad leader shouted as he put the beetle in his pocket again

”Haha, you overestimate him too much, boss, he is just a peculiar human, how strong can he be? sooner or later we will--”

*BOOOOOOM*

”AAAAAHHHHHHH!””

A huge explosion ripped through the back of the low-level saint before he could finish speaking and sent him flying into the air

more than 30 meters away from his original spot

*SWOOOOSH*

At the same time a few more talismans flew around, two talismans of them headed toward the middle-leveled saint!

He was still sleeping on a tree trunk with closed eyes, he didnʼt have the time to even open his eyes after hearing his brothersʼ shout

And just before the two talismans landed on him, they both turned into massive fireballs

Finally, the middle-level Saint felt the danger after hearing the scream from his brother and felt the extensive heat of fireballs coming at him

finally, he opened his eyes, and was greeted by two giant flame balls coming toward him!

Without thinking he punched one of the two fireballs with his a fist covered with tiny thunderbolts, and instantly that fireball vanished into thin air

but the other one found its target, and the giantʼs body turned into a living torch...

”AAAAHHHHHHH! DAMMIT!! ARGHHH!!!!”

As for the rest of the talismans, they all headed towards their top-leveled Saint Chief from different directions

4 talismans all transformed at the same time, including two level 25 fireball talismans and two level 25 wind blade talismans.

”Hmmm?” The Top-leveled Saint furrowed his eyebrows but did not panic, he quickly pulled the war hammer hanging on his back and in an instant was enveloped in thunderbolts and with a *whoosh*

*boom boom clack clack*

He circled the war hammer at the four attacks, destroying them all before coming near!

*baa*

Just at this moment, the low-leveled Saint landed on the ground 30 meters from his original spot…

Everything happened at the same instant that the knights couldnʼt show any reflex other than staring around them, knowing fully that if one of those attacks was coming for them they would surely be dead

”AAAAAHHHHHHH!! Get out here! Come out if you dare!!!” After the mid-level Saint extinguished the fire on him he started shouting,

The fireballʼs attack was surprising and extremely powerful, his entire body filled with burns, especially the front half that had received the full shock was completely charred...

But it wasnʼt enough to take him out, he was still strong enough to fight.

As for the low-leveled saint, he was done for...

He was still breathing, hardly, but his back was utterly destroyed

​ The four knights went to help the low-leveled Saint after his spine had exploded from the intensity of the explosion

They placed him in their midst to protect him, standing ready in a tight and closed circle to fend off any possible attack against their fallen brother.

The atmosphere became extremely heavy...

Everyone started looking around them in readiness and even some freight...

”Beautiful and tightly closed defensive circuit... But against someone who uses explosions as a weapon? Do you think I wonʼt blow up the five of you just if I wanted, you idiots?” Finally, a voice echoes from behind the trees

The top-leveled Saint narrowed his eyebrows even more when he heard it, the voice didnʼt come from a specific direction but seemed as if the forest itself was speaking!

The knights started looking at each other out of the corners of their eyes, frightened, and they unconsciously took a few steps forward, widening the circle a little bit.

”Do you know the consequences of what you just did? Do you know who we are?!” the middle-ranked Saint yelled in anger

”Consequences.. let me think, are they going to send elite squad after me to hunt and kill me? Oh wait, this is already happening now!!” The voice echoed again, ”Give me one reason why I shouldnʼt exterminate you all right now.”

Everyone had fearful and anxious looks in their eyes, Robin could easily hear their racing heart and high breathing... almost everyone.

Their boss didnʼt react at all...

His face is still not visible under the cloak, but his body language and bodily functions are completely stable, and it seems as if he... felt some reassurance from Robinʼs words?

ʼDammit..ʼ Robin thought to himself when he saw this and grabbed three talismans firmly in his hand... They were the last talismans he had left.

That person with a wave of his war hammer destroyed a sudden attack of four Talismans from the four sides, he was definitely not an ordinary top-ranking Saint...

Whether his strength level, his martial techniques, or the height of his observation, he was undoubtedly the strongest person Robin had to face.

It reminds him a little of standing before Duke Donald Evren that day...

His goal of launching that intense attack and then speaking intimidating words was to scare that top-leveled saint

Robin hoped that he would promise him to retreat and give him the beetle in exchange for their life, but he didnʼt seem to be affected at all...

”You are not going to scare anyone with your words, Show your everything if you want to get rid of us.” The top-leveled Saint spoke confidently

Robin could even see a slight smile..?

”Chief..!!” The knights quickly looked at him as if they were begging, even the mid-level Saint looked with the side of his eyes to try to understand what his Chief wanted to achieve... they were clearly on the weaker side here!

Robinʼs eyes widened when he heard the chiefʼs words, that was the worst and last thing he was prepared to hear.

He isnʼt Theo, He didnʼt build his Pillars with Darkness, he canʼt activate Darkness Heavenly Law for long periods, It was already good that he can use it!!

If he chose the easy way and runs away now, no matter how far he goes or how much he remains in hiding, he will have to stop Darkness Heavenly Law Cultivation Technique to rest, and then he will find other pursuers at his ass.

He wouldnʼt see a single good day in this world if he didnʼt kill that damn beetle with the top-leveled saint!!

”....Sigh~” Robin let out a long sigh as if he had given in to his fate

Then he jumped off the tree to stand in front of one of the four knights and spoke, ”You donʼt deserve another talisman to be wasted on you, I and this fist are enough to kill a bunch of bastards like you!”
