Lord of the Truth

Chapter 504  Ghostly creatures

”Jabba, everything will be okay now; just relax and have some rest, okay?” Robin returned to look at his student with a smile that showed some satisfaction

”Haa... Haa...” Jabba finally looked beside him, the thick blood that covered his eyes made him see everything in red, but he still managed to read his teacherʼs features clearly... It was filled with anger, anxiety, and even some horror!!

Jabba finally lowered his arms and then got down on his knees *Bam*, ”Master... Do I really look... that bad?”

”...You will... be fine. Just rest now, and we will have a talk later.” Robin forced his smile to grow harder as he stroked Jabbaʼs hair, but his loud heartbeat told Jabba that he was hiding something from him.

Indeed, his appearance alone was enough to tell Robin about what happened before his arrival. His skin had turned red, his eyes flowing with blood, the arteries of his arm and his feet were mostly all severed, and most importantly... His physique!!

Jabba is now barely 190 cm tall, and his dense muscles have faded. If this Nihari *giant* was placed among the soldiers of the Sixth Legion now, no one would distinguish him. In the past, even if he got down on his knees, he would still be taller than Robin, but now he is the height of ordinary humans, perhaps even a little shorter than humans of his level!

Robinʼs lips twitched as he looked at his student, ʼWhat happened? I understand the blood covering it, but since when can muscle mass be reduced in a few minutes, and even his bones shortened?!ʼ

*Rumble* *Rumble*

Dozens of huge, ancient-looking roots pierced the ground and continued their way at a steady pace upward until they reached and penetrated the thundercloud, then the lightning began to strike the roots!

*Rumble*

The enormous thundercloud that was shining bright white due to the numerous thunderbolts in it began to gradually dim, the number and strength of the thunderbolts in the thundercloud visibly decreased, and the cloud itself began to diminish at an enormous speed. But this did not bring happiness to anyone in the Sixth Legion!

”Hahaha, you said you would kill me? KILL ME? HAAHAHAHA” The giant bud laughed hysterically as if he had heard the strangest joke of his life, then pointed toward the sky with his torn arm after he was freed from the gravitational pressure, ”Open your eyes and see, you are now going to experience the wrath of Greenland you are trying to conquer!”

*Rumble* *RUMBLE* *RUMPLE----*

Robin almost responded to Hoffenheim, who was occupying the consciousness of the giant bud, but he was forced to look up after the sounds of thunder and turmoil in the sky ceased. All the lightning bolts disappeared from the cloud, and the cloud itself almost vanished! But despite that, the light of the three suns, which make most of Greenlandʼs days bright, did not reach them.

The suns were hidden behind what appeared to be a gray translucent screen... It was the planetʼs sky; it became almost entirely gray now.

*Breaking sound*

Robin was hurridly trying to use the Eye of Truth to digest what was happening around him, when even something more strange happened, something that is not heard about except in legends, happened in front of him himself...

Hoffenheimʼs ancient-looking roots had continued their way up even after the cloud was dispersed until its tips disappeared from view. But at that moment, the lightning-loaded roots seemed to hit something up above, and cracks started to appear in the sky.

Cracks began to appear... in the sky!!

*Crack* *Crack*

”Ahh… AAHHH..!!”

 The majestic yet horrifying sight above their heads shattered the last psychological barrier of most of the Sixth Legion soldiers.

”Retreat to a safe distance!” Some officers and Sages tried to gather the dispersed soldiers and move them again, but none responded to their calls. Everyone in the Sixth Legion stood where they were, watching what was happening in the sky; the good news is that they were not the only ones who acted in this way. Even the buds themselves looked up in fear!!

And while everyone is focused on the cracks in the sky and waiting to see what happens...

*SHWALAAA*

A Foot that does not resemble human feet appeared from one of the cracks and began to descend little by little, revealing a humanoid plant - a Treant- with many ancient-looking branches and roots around its fossil-like body. Its body was semi-transparent. Everyone could see its shape, yet they could see through it like a ghost. Its facial features were rigid and emotionless that it looked like a statue, and its aura made everyone think that it was able to erase them from existence with nothing but a glance!!

No one made sense of what they were seeing, and they didnʼt have the time either because, at this moment, another ghostly, salamander-like being with colorless flames surrounding its body began to descend from the cracks.

Then a ghostly bird resembling the legends of the phoenix appeared, exuding enormous life energy, then a ghostly deer that was transformed by colorless lightning, then a human-shaped being holding a sword in his right hand and colorless explosions in his left hand, and then... then... then~~, etc.

The Sixth Legion personnel and the Buds looked up with open mouths and sweaty foreheads. Some of them even unconsciously took a few steps back until they collided with the *enemy* but none of those present had any intention of fighting again… the distance between them and the cracks in the cracked sky was simply too great. However, they could clearly see those ghostly creatures, which indicated that those ghostly creatures were tens of kilometers long!

In just a few seconds, dozens of these ghostly creatures showed themselves through the cracks in the sky.

”Are those…” Robin opened his eyes so wide that his golden eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets, but unlike the rest, there were no features of horror, but rather that of extreme shock, ”…The embodiment of the laws of Planet Greenland?!”
