Chapter 847: Green and Red playgrounds
Robin remained silent for a few more seconds, looking at everyone's faces until he was sure that no one wanted to respond, then he smiled and clapped once loudly, "Good since there are no better suggestions, we will adopt my plan, the fate of Nihari will be decided in a battle between Holak, the Great Serpent Empire, and Jabba. The Demons will remain there to support and prevent the spaceships from leaving, while the Shadow Swords and Fire Salamander organizations will play their usual roles."
"Now let's move on to the second and third boards," then with a simple wave, he erased the drawing of the planet Nihari, and pointed towards Greenland and the Orphan's Blood, "As you know, I refined Planet Greenland, and the planet spirit informed me of what is happening there. According to her, there is a Marshal with his personal guards, and there are 3 entire fleets, the casualty report is that we lost almost a quarter of the cities and villages there and the number of dead is no longer countable."
*Swallow*
Fogun and the rest of the other kings swallowed hard, Robin was talking about destroying their property like it was nothing.
"The good news is that the planet spirit, Evergreen, intervened in the war and helped our forces there using natural disasters, epidemics, and even insect waves, which caused some casualties on the side of the Great Serpent Empire's forces," Robin pointed towards the middle of Planet Greenland several times, "And more importantly, her intervention greatly reduced the casualties on our army's side, it can be said that they still retained their full strength as they engaged in a guerrilla war."
"Excellent!!" King Sharver rose from his seat and shouted excitedly.
As long as the army still retained its strength, the invaders wouldn't dare to move freely.
Fogun let out a long sigh of relief, but he quickly gave Sharver a sideways glance, "What's excellent about it? Sit down!"
"Fogun is right, the armies of the Four Kingdoms are undoubtedly formidable and have superior armament to that of the Great Serpent Empire, plus Rune Master and Divine Blacksmiths Divisions have set up many huge arrays in the planet's major cities," Robin nodded, "But the difference in the number of Martial Emperors is very large as there are only twenty Martial Emperors or so in Greenland, perhaps the only good thing about it is that Theo, Peon and Emily are there with them, so there will be no problem in the chain of command."
"This..." Fogun opened his eyes wide
Up until this moment, he thought from the way Robin spoke that he did not care about what was happening in Greenland, he did not know that his adopted sons were there, and even the head of the headquarters, the administrative genius Emily who runs almost all the affairs of the Empire!
Caesar and Richard raised their eyebrows and looked at the drawing of Greenland, they had to save their brothers no matter the cost, and Zara focused on the map firmly.
"So what are we waiting for? We have to go there and save General Peon and General Theo immediately!!" Raiden pointed excitedly, he didn't know either of them personally but he wanted to be part of the conversation.
*Bam* Flora slammed her hand on the table and stood up angrily, "What are you saying? What about the Orphan Blood? Should we just let it burn then?!"
"We should focus on planet Jura as we are already here, should we leave what we have and go after another one?!" General Martin Barnett stood up shouting after that
Robin sent two glances to the two of them and they sat back in silence looking at the ground.
Raiden followed suit, "...I think I'll shut up again."
"Back to the topic... I passed a message to Peon and Theo via the planet spirit to start building a space portal somewhere safe, if they put all their effort into it it should be ready in the next two weeks," Robin pointed back at Greenland, "and considering the state of war there and the planet spirit's interference, I think Greenland can easily be ignored until the portal is built there, if we try to send an army now it will take them about ten days to arrive anyway."
"A--!!" Fogun and Hydar wanted to say that they should go now and that even one-day defense matters, but they saw Robin looking at their very souls so they decided to remain silent.
As for the three tree fathers, they had no objection, they knew better than anyone what the planet spirit had in store, as long as Evergreen intervened to protect itself the planet should last two weeks or even two months without any problems.
"...Alright since there are no objections, we're done with Greenland for the time being, let's move on to the Orphan's Blood planet." Robin pointed to a drawing of a planet slightly larger than Greenland, but this time he didn't erase the Greenland drawing from the table, then continued, "I actually don't have the slightest information about what's going on there, the only confirmed information about it is from the Demon City located in the central region." When Richard heard about the Demon City, he focused on the following words. "According to the Shadow Swords report, the number of Demon corpses in the city does not match the number of the city's residents before the attack, it's much less, and they didn't find any Nihari giants' corpses in the city or any energy pearls." Robin rested his chin on the fingers of his left hand, "What we can conclude from this is that they used the Space Portal before it was destroyed and left, and since they didn't appear in Nihari or Greenland, then they are in the Orphan Blood Planet."
Richard opened his eyes wide, one of the things that bothered him the most was the destruction of the Demon City that contained the prisoners of the Uzail tribe who he promised eternal torment, but he was afraid to reveal that so that no one would see him as a trivial person who did not care about the bigger picture... If a few prisoners of the Uzail tribe really survived, that would be great news!
"The presence of those Demons there, along with about 50 Demon Emperors, gives them an advantage over our forces in Greenland, but the Demons are not good at high-level tactics and will be quickly hunted down if they clash with the invaders. If they haven't been wiped out by now, I'll be grateful for that. Perhaps the only thing in their favor in this war is the chaotic environment of Orphan Blood, which they've become accustomed to."
He then pointed a few times toward the planet Orphan Blood, "There's also Aro along with 30 Martial Emperors and the support of the demi-human tribes, they can be a huge help if they cooperate with the demons, but I can't decide whether they're allies or enemies... You saw how the North in Nihari turned against us."
"...And the East too," Caesar muttered but looked away when he sensed a piercing gaze from Robin.
