*Rumble*
*KATCHAA*
*bam bam bam bam*
The sounds of bodies colliding with the ground resounded throughout the dome, each sound would be entering their ears but shaking their hearts…
Life seemed to have come to a complete halt inside the white flame dome.
Victoria and her soldiers, who were preparing to take off and replace Alexander, remained in place. Whoever was running to stand in his position stopped in his place with his foot hanging in the air. Whoever was putting on his helmet froze in position, placing his hands on his head.
Even the Life Forces and Flame Forces forgot for a moment their mission and stopped pumping life energy and white flames into the dome, focusing their popping eyes on the terrifying sight before them.
Everyone's eyes were already focused on the top when Alexander and the other six thousand Sages were trying to retreat with difficulty towards the openings that the forces of life had made for them, some think of supporting them if something sudden happens, and who thinks of taking their place when they come down, and who think of increasing the number of openings or closing them to help these men entering with ease while preventing the Saints and Sages of the humanoid white creatures from entering.
But everything changed in an instant... The sky suddenly turned black.
Extremely dark clouds appeared out of nowhere that covered the sky as far as the eye could see, obscuring with it any source of light other than the faint light of the white flame dome, but the absolute darkness did not last long...
The clouds began to rain white-blueish thunderbolts suddenly, striking down Alexander and the six thousand sages.
Everything happened in an instant.
If Robin wasn't looking up too when it happened, he would have accused whoever reported this of lying!
But he saw everything...
Six thousand thunderbolts fell at the same moment vertically as if they were a pillar supporting the sky, each one as thick as an ancient tree... and each one struck a Sage without room for error.
*Step..*
*step... step... step...*
Robin was the first to wake up from the shock, it took him tremendous willpower to be able to move his foot for the first few steps, after which he started running towards the golden bodies' rain.
"A-... Alexander!"
"AHH, My big brother was up with them!!"
"NOO!!!"
Robin's move finally brought balance to the rest of the golden battalion, some of them started to shout and some of them fell to the ground on the spot out of sheer horror, but without exception, sooner or later they all started running toward the falling bodies.
*boom*
At that moment, a large ground explosion is heard and Jabba's voice reverberates throughout the dome as he points his hammer at the forces of fire and the forces of life, "What the hell are you doing, Do you all want to kill the rest of us as well? Re-inject your energy into the dome right now you bastards!!"
The White Flame Dome is alive and does not need permanent control or permanent injection of energy. It can defend itself as soon as it is formed and work with no regard to how little energy it has
But in the end, its power is limited and it can't support itself, there is no source of its nourishment except for continuous support with flame energy and life energy.
The forces of humanoid white creatures, both on the ground and in the air, took advantage of what had just happened and began raining down attacks on the dome with great zeal…
For the first time since its formation, the dome began to be riddled with many holes.
A few saints and sages of white human creatures tried to exploit the holes and enter, but the dome manipulated the places of the holes and prevented them from entering, but nevertheless, the holes still appeared very rapidly and grew larger, within a few more seconds the dome would be completely torn apart.
Only after hearing Jabba's shout did the Life Forces and Fire Forces return to inject energy into the dome again, in an amount less than half the previous rate however, They grit their teeth and look at the ground as the dome began to slowly heal.
Jabba's facial features turned and he saw what was happening, he was fully aware that they were all now thinking the same thing: 'What is the point of all this?'
Jabba wanted to give some encouraging talk... but what could he possibly say to lift their spirits? Even he needs someone to cheer him up!
In the blink of an eye, six thousand sages were killed, was it that who killed them could not kill the rest?!
Why would they bother with feeding the white flame dome anymore? There is no war of attrition, There is no way out of here...
But at that moment everyone heard two words that gave them back some hope.
"HE IS ALIVE!"
"My brother, you are breathing?!"
"Open your eyes, my friend, open your eyes!!"
The smiles on their faces returned when they heard these words, but in the midst of the shouts a sobbing was heard, as someone said, "He is dead... Edgar Frost's heart has stopped beating."
"This brother is dead too..."
*Step.. step..*
Robin did not go towards a specific person like the rest, but as soon as he reached the spot where Alexander and the rest of the Sages fell, he slowed down and started walking among them, looking to his right and left with knotted eyebrows, and eyes shining with bright golden glimmer...
So far, he had passed by over 300 sages who had fallen to the ground, 40 of them were dead and the rest were between life and death… If this rate were to be generalized to all the sages who had been struck by the lightning, then the golden army would have lost a few hundred sages in that instant, and over five thousand sages had lost the ability to fight in the near future, that is if they escaped death right now...
The only good thing about it was that those Sages had already begun to enter the dome when the thunderbolts descended, so all six thousand Sages had fallen within the boundaries of the dome, not a single one had descended outside of it… If this had happened, it would have been very difficult to bring them back with such spirits that had fallen to the ground.
The Sages who were still alive started to receive intensive treatment, but life had not returned to their eyes yet, and it was not yet known if they could be saved.
It was not even known what harmed them in the first place.
The Heavenly Lightning Law was not a strange thing for Robin, as it is the Major Heavenly Law used by Jabba's tripe, and it was one of the laws that Robin made a cultivation technique for all the way to the third stage back in Planet Nihari.
But those lightning bolts that had just landed just now, were unlike anything he had seen before...
These thick lightning bolts -even though they appeared to be extremely pure without any pollutants from other laws- weren't something of the normal Major Heavenly Law of Thunder either!
