Lord of the Truth

Chapter 539 New power

”Destroy the source? ...You mean attacking that Tree directly?” Alexander shook his head after hearing Robinʼs words, ”Iʼm sorry for saying that, but Iʼm afraid itʼs easier said than done in this case. Reaching that damned tree is impossible without completely eliminating the buds.”

”Oh? I was also wondering why you didnʼt think of something like this before, but it seems like you tried. This makes me curious... Whatʼs stopping you from aiming directly at the tree trunk?” Robin raised his eyebrows slightly

”Please let me show you, it will be easier to explain that way.” Alexander bowed slightly, then took a few steps forward until he maintained a safe distance away from Robin, then opened his hands wide as if he was about to hug someone, then quickly closed them with a clap that sounded like a clap of thunder for miles around!

*PAA*

Alexanderʼs quick movement sent a wind blade upward toward the trunk. Although his movement seemed random and fast without preparation, it was an offensive technique that he had trained thousands of times until he mastered it, and it contained all of his strength.

Due to the intensity of the air pressure in the wind blade and the extreme force of the blade that separates it from the air surrounding it, the blade can now be seen with the naked eye! This is, of course, if your eye is fast enough to see the blade. Even Robin and Jabba had some difficulty moving their eyes fast enough to follow the path of the blade of wind.

But what happened next was strange...

The buds in the path of the wind blade started jumping over each other until they formed a small hill very quickly and stood in front of the incoming blade!

The wind blade was so powerful that it immediately split the mound of bodies in half and continued on its way, but along the way, the blank-eyed sages and saints and even the knights within the buds were grabbing the ordinary buds next to them and throwing them towards the path of the blade!!

The distance between Alexander and the tree trunk was not short at all. After all, there were tens of millions of buds standing between them, and during this long path that the blade traveled, it killed several thousands of buds until most of its strength was consumed, in the end, when the wind blade collided with the trunk, the blade shattered. Simply put, not a single scratch was left on the trunk of the giant tree.

”WOHRAAA death to the invaders!!!” the blank-eyed buds in the area in front of Alexander shouted at the top of their lungs, then they led the buds to put pressure on the siege in that area, broke it easily, and began to push their way towards Alexander to punish him!

But at this moment, two elite golden corps came and crushed the buds who broke the siege and forced them to retreat. The situation quickly returned to normal.

”Interesting...” Robin whistled lowly as he raised his eyebrows, no wonder the armyʼs powerhouses have given up on attacking the tree trunk directly, this is really useless... If they wanted to kill the ordinary buds, they could focus on killing them in sieges instead than to waste their strength on long-range attacks

The biggest problem is the resilience of the huge tree trunk. Even if the strength of the wind blade dropped greatly on the way, it was still a wind blade that was fired from the hand of someone with the strength of a half-step Martial Emperor. Even after being weakened by that much, it should still be able to split a low-level sage in half, but it still somehow did not leave a single scratch on the trunk?!

”Do you want to try your luck?” Robin looked behind him with a meaningful smile and pointed at the tree trunk

”Me? The result wonʼt be better than General Alexander.” Jabba laughed and shook his head

Robin raised his hand and slapped Jabba on the back of the head, ”Alright, Alright, we both know thatʼs not the truth. Did you think you would hide something like that from your Masterʼs eyes? Iʼve been monitoring the changes in your body since the moment I entered the tent door.”

Jabba scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed smile, ”I donʼt mean to hide anything, but my body has changed and I can no longer determine my level of strength. I just wanted to warm up a little before I embarrass myself in front of you, and I... I donʼt want to be the center of attention right now.”

”Why do you think like that? Do you think this will bring you peace in your research or something? This is Stupidity. If you want peace, you have to be strong to keep it. If anyone spots weakness in you they will try to test you further and THAT will really disturb what you are doing, this is why you have to show off a little even if you donʼt want to fight the battles yourself, you have to show your strength when your soldiers know that their backs are protected, their hands will hit harder. Come on, test your new strength. Where can you find a better sandbag than this?” He laughed and did not add another word. Even Alexander, who had retreated to stand next to them again, did not know what was going on. Why did His Excellency think that Jabba would do better than him?

”...I think youʼre right, as you wish then.” Jabba cracked his neck left and right with his hands, then said some simple stretches to his shoulder

Then he took a step forward with his left foot and extended his right arm backward, ”COME ON BABY!!!!” Then he shot it forward with all his might as if it were a bullet.

*BOOM*

The next moment, another explosion was heard behind the lines of the buds. When everyone looked at the location of the second explosion, they found a circle forty meters in diameter and ten meters deep on the trunk of the tree...

The trunk of the huge tree has been damaged!!

The battlefield, which had been burning for two years, fell into a frightening silence at this moment. Everyone looked to the other side to see the perpetrator. After the dust settled, they found that the command tent had been blown away due to the pressure of the wind. They found Jabba in an attack position, with Robin standing next to him, smiling, and Alexander, who appeared to be so amazed that he could fit five eggs into his mouth

”Itʼs the Sixth General!”

”His Excellency! His Excellency is here!!”

”Father, you came?!”

”Long live the True Beginning Empire!”

”Long live the True Beginning Empire!”

The human side in this battle finally gained some enthusiasm for the first time in two years and their morale reached sky high with one movement.

Even the Fugon and the locals raised their weapons and shouted excitedly along with the soldiers of the True Beginning Emperor before they returned to the battle again with tremendous momentum. 

In the blink of an eye, the death toll doubled and the rows of buds were pushed back again.
