Chapter 616 New Era
"But... Just because I can't apply these laws doesn't mean there is no other way for me to help you raise your success rates a little bit..." After Robin's words, he lost himself in thought for about two minutes, then snapped his finger and looked at Annabelle, "While I was staying in the afflicted Jura City, I created a Rune design that can discover candidates with soul force stronger than average to pick them as Rune Masters, is this method still being followed?"
"Of course Your Excellency, most of the current Rune Masters were chosen by it." Annabelle nodded, so she took this test
"Good! Most of this Rune composition is for identification and examination and only a small part is for measuring the vibrations of soul force emanating from the target. What if we swapped that small part and had the tablet measure a person's degree of integration with a certain law?" Robin said excitedly, "Studying one law before Knighthood is already difficult enough, Trying to study a second one will be even more difficult. Not everyone is a genius like General Raiden who tried 4 laws one after the other, but if there was a test for the youths who wanted to choose a law, this would save a lot of time and effort and it would raise the success rate significantly, even among the 50% who are lazy or stupid, some of them will continue their cultivation path if they know that they have high integration with one of the laws and that their future is bright."
"That's a great idea, Dad!" Zara clapped
A big smile appeared on Annabelle's face as well, "This is indeed possible, Your Excellency. We can reach at least a 25% Breakthrough rate this way. When can Your Excellency deliver the design for these detection tablets to us?"
"That's the idea... I'm not handing you anything." A smile appeared on Robin's face, then he stood up and pointed, "Turn off the lights and throw all this furniture outside or put it in your space rings. I want this room to be empty of everything within seconds. Then stand with your backs against the wall." After giving his instructions he started walking toward the middle of the hall and stood there with his hand behind his back
*Hustle* *Hustle*
The things that Robin asked were not difficult for dozens of sages and saints. In the blink of an eye, the huge hall was completely evacuated and they stood in a line with their backs touching the walls, even Zara stood next to them, looking at her adoptive father, smiling, waiting for him to shine as usual.
Robin took a deep breath and then let it out, "Hooh~ Are you ready? Today a new era will begin in the True Beginning Empire... or at least that's what I hope~" He then took out something from his ring, an orange disc the size of the palm of his hand, and passed his energy into it.
*Shhh*
A bright light suddenly shot out from the disk, forcing everyone to cover their eyes, "AHH!" Then they started trying to open it again one after another, "This...?"
The hall located on the lower floor of the Sky-Opening Tower was intended for exchanging information, welcoming guests, receiving reports, chatting between team members, and other purposes. Therefore, it was built to be 10 meters high and more than two hundred meters wide. This hall can hold conferences and parties in it!
But now it was completely full...
It is filled with strange, bright patterns swimming in its dark surroundings, some of which are somewhat familiar, but most of which they have never seen.
Just seeing these patterns made a strange heat flow through their bodies and sweat drip from their foreheads
"Is that...?" Old Gu couldn't help himself and took two steps forward
"It is exactly what you think. What you are seeing now is the true form of the Major Heavenly Law of Fire. This is what I see when I write the Law Techniques to you." Robin said, still looking around smiling
"Look... that part over there is the one depicted in the Fire Explosion Talisman!" One of the team members pointed quickly
"And that there is the part drawn on the metal smelting furnaces that His Excellency invented during her stay in the stricken city of Jura!"
"That's still not all," Robin nodded, chuckling, then passed his hand and the patterns moved sideways until a large part of them disappeared and new patterns appeared. Robin pointed at a number of these new patterns that were close together, "Do you see those patterns there? they are the patterns of the Minor Heavenly Law of Blaze, and that one there constitutes the Minor Heavenly Law of Fire Shards, and that there is the part that contained the loophole that makes the Barnett family's Major Heavenly Law of Fire Law defective, and that one~~" Then Robin began to pass his hand and the patterns began to move and disappear and come up with others for more than a minute without stopping.
"Wow, all of these patterns are still in the First Stage of the Major Heavenly Law of Fire?!" Old Gu couldn't comprehend what he was seeing. He had been practicing this law for more than a thousand years and had never felt or seen anything like this before.
"Haha, of course, the first stage of the Major Heavenly Law of Fire contains all the first stages of all the minor laws of the fire path." Robin laughed out loud stopped scrolling through the patterns any further and looked at the lost R&D team members seriously, "You and your ancestors' understanding of the laws is very shallow, I will give you an example: it is like someone trying to figure out how to prevent a river flood, so he watches the flowing river for a long time until he thinks that he understands the movement of water in the river and then writes to his children that they must direct the water in this way or that they must build a canal in such and such a place. But when I look at the water, I read it as an open book, as you see now, and then I write to you that you must direct the water in this or that way... In both cases, you do not go through the long reflection the old man had towards the river, nor do you read it as I read do, You only benefit from what is written for you."
Then he continued, "Ever since my disciple Jabba told me about your research and its results, I intended to help you and make your path easier for you, but I did not know how. The patterns that I see cannot be drawn on paper or they will destroyed, and they cannot be drawn on Hides, or else the complete assortment of patterns of the First Stage of the Major Heavenly Law of Fire alone would be drawn on the Hides of thousands of Beasts, so what about the rest of the stages and laws? So the idea was put on hold for a while... But while I was modifying the Warlord Array, I had to find a way to create illusions around it, and this led me to research the Major Heavenly Law of Light, which in a way led me to this idea, I asked myself, why don't I show you everything I see by using the element of light? Unfortunately, this version is what came out."
"What is before your eyes now is the closest thing I can produce that is close to The Truth, but it is not The Truth. I just found out that what I see cannot be replicated no matter what I do, I can only make inferior copies." Robin shook his head and looked around for a moment before turning back to look at the R&D team members, "But this 3D version here is still more than enough to give you an idea of the true world around you, and more than enough to give a huge boost to your research!"
Then Robin withdrew his energy from the orange disk and inserted it into another yellow disk, and when a completely different combination of patterns appeared, Robin began searching between them until he found a specific pattern and pointed toward it, "I will give you a simple example. For example, this is the light condensation pattern with which it is possible to create High-penetration laser beams. You can take the third or even fourth stage of this pattern and make a talisman from it that is specialized in cutting the bark of Hoffenheim. Of course, you will have to discover the ink formula and drawing foundation yourself. You can also make a Minor Heavenly law technique from this part and give it to some handy workers, it will be easier than the Major Heavenly Laws to study and would be a great help in both the Empire's work and wars. Also, you can create a new type of weapon for the Empire's Army! I have prepared for you tablets that hold up to the fourth degree of all available laws, and--"
When Robin finished his explanation, he looked again at the members of the research and development team to ask them if there was something they did not understand, and he found bright eyes.
Some of them shine from tears of joy and longing... and some of them shine because they can imagine the future now
Just as His Excellency said... These disks can facilitate their tasks.
These disks could start a new era for the Empire.
