Chapter 792: Banquet
Two hours later---
"AAhhh.. AAhhh..."
"No, no, no, no, stay away from me!!"
The city that had been leveled with dust and already covered in blood and body parts, the city that witnessed the bloodiest battle in the history of Nihari, this miserable spot that, at first glance, one might say that its condition could not get any worse!!...It has become more hideous and ominous.
Nearly 400 Demon Emperors, along with the strongest ten thousand Demon Kings, stormed the injured camp in the middle of the night like a pack of starving lions that found a rabbit farm. When they were finally spotted, they had already caught thousands of injured soldiers and the banquet began.
The injured Great Serpent Emperors immediately tried to escape in various directions, and a number of them almost succeeded, but Amon and Sakaar, who had reached level 48, alongside Robin, shot down everyone who tried to escape and returned them to the meat furnace again.
The word horror was not enough to describe the scene, and specifically for this reason, Robin did not bring anyone except the demons for this raid... This ugly sight is important for those ten thousand kings to break through quickly.
150 Martial Emperors and 20,000 Law Users would certainly be enough for a large number of these Kings to undergo their mutation today, not to mention the still-fresh hundreds of corpses of Martial Emperors and hundreds of thousands of corpses of Law Users from the morning battle!
"Thank you, Your Excellency, for keeping us in mind and allocating the site to us." Amon approached Robin and knelt with both hands on the ground
"There is no need for this. If you become stronger, you will serve me better. Rather, I must apologize if more than 200 Demon Emperors that died today." Robin sighed as he watched the Demon Kings eating the corpses as a form of self-flagellation.
"For them to die for the Lord's sake as a duty for them, a pride for their families, and an honor for their race." Amon hit his head on the ground two more times before he stood up.
He really had no need to kneel like this as one of the pillars of the Empire, but he wanted to do it anyway...
Fifty years ago, a trap was set up for him due to his lack of senses as a demon, and he was led in a moving circus to make the giants laugh, but now he has the power of a level 48 Demon Emperor!
What's the problem if 200 Demon emperors died? What's the problem if they all die?! As long as the Lord is present, he can create more!
Next to him, Sakaar nodded in agreement with Amon's words, but he did not kneel as he did. "After you finish cleaning here, I want you to return to complete the scanning process again. According to estimates, there are still roughly 50 Martial Emperors and 100,000 soldiers of the Five Fleets deployed in the central region, they have a number of spaceships as well." Robin spoke as he watched the terrifying and disgusting sight in front of him. Since he was the one controlling these things, he should at least be aware of their actions and be a full partner with them.
"Aren't we heading towards the North? I don't know if we can search the entire Central Region in just 7 days..." Amon seemed a little agitated. Today's fighting gave them a good idea of the strength of their opponents.
If a problem occurred and another battle took place in the middle of the road and the Demons were not a party to it, The forces of the True Beginning Empire would undoubtedly be wiped -out.
"We cannot leave a variable factor like this behind. If we focus on the battle in the north and these people gather themselves to strike us from behind, the war may end right there and then." Robin shook his head, "Clearing the central region is a big responsibility that I will place on you. You just need to communicate with the Shadow Swords as you usually do, this way I can summon you again if a problem shows itself."
"Yes." Amon and Sakaar bowed slightly.
Robin nodded a few times, then made a final sweep with his eyes... In a certain direction were no less than 10,000 soldiers with dozens of Emperors kneeling on the ground, all of them with sealing nails in their chests.
Robin knew immediately that their fate would not be like the rest of the prisoners who were captured in Nihari, but rather they would go on an eternal visit to the demon city...
Robin didn't know how to feel about this. He and those prisoners had no personal issues, Most of them probably came for the dream of striking it rich. They might be cold-blooded killers who had destroyed other planets before, but to have the fate of being residents of the Demons City? "...Heh~" Robin sighed, then moved his hand like a sword, a crack in space opened in front of him, and he jumped into it.
Only after Robin left was Sakaar's thick voice heard, "It seems that the Lord is not used to our ways yet. He still sees us as monsters."
"...Aren't we?" Amon laughed, then jumped among his companions to reserve his share of the banquet.
As for Sakaar, he remained focused on the location where Robin had split the space and sat there in silence.
Thousands of kilometers away---
*swoosh*
Robin slowly came out from behind a giant tree, watching what looked like meteors shooting
north.
"One, two, three, four.."
*swoosh**swoosh* *swoosh**swoosh*
"... Ninety-five." Robin placed his hand under his chin, this was the total number of Great Serpent Emperors escaping the city including Generals Jaike and Parrs.
Soon after them, the Emperors of the True Beginning appeared.
*swoosh* *swoosh*
When the Emperors of the True Beginning left the city, their number was a little over 450, but now, after several hours of persecution, their number has become 200. Not because they were killed along the way. They fell due to fatigue, but rather:
*Pzzzzzz*
An instant space portal opened in the path of one of the more tired Martial Emperors, instantly swallowing him up, and from the same portal emerged another Martial Emperor who continued the track on his behalf.
Robin smiled as he saw this... Currently, most of the human pursuers were unable to use the fourth level of Laws, and they had several hours before they could take the medicine and use it again, but they could still use their tremendous energy reserve as Emperors in Flying at least.
He knew that all of the Human Emperors had reached their limit from the moment they left the city already, the medicine that enabled them to use the fourth stage of their laws had a time limit, and it also put great pressure on the body, so only by working with the Shadow Swords this way could they continue the pursuit at such a high pace.
In fact, if the 95 Emperors of the Great Serpent Empire stopped now and began a counterattack, they would easily win, but fear and love of life made this idea nonexistent, and also the sight of the newly refreshed Emperors made them believe that they had rested and returned stronger, even though the opposite was true.
When Robin was satisfied with the progress of the pursuit, he inserted his soul sense into his void ring and sent, "Flora, I want to make a deal with you, something if done correctly, we will be a blessing for both of us."
