Chapter 962: Talking to Rocky
*Step* *Step*
"You, what are you doing there? Stop right n--" *Bam*
The palace servants and guards tried to get in Robin's way several times, but their heads would simply explode before they could finish a word.
While Robin was roaming the Ancestral Continent after the demons took over, he spent most of his time killing criminals who tried to rob him. He killed several thousand criminals and bandits, and each one of them died in a different way using one of the laws Robin discovered in the cave. When it came to how to kill, no one had more variety than Robin.
So those servants and guards who hadn't reached the realm of an emperor yet simply asked for death by getting in his way!
"No... No please!!"
"Hmm?" Robin paused for a moment when he heard the startled voice, a voice that wasn't as rough and hoarse as the voices of demi-snakes. When he looked in that direction, he saw a human woman holding a child with cracked pale skin.
Robin's eyebrows furrowed tightly... He expected something like this to happen.
No one has enough blood to transform their entire body and pass it on to their lineage except for Pythor and the eight marshals, and a few of Pythor's elder sons, while the rest have a range of Durger blood in their bodies, some of them have a hundredth of a drop, like those fighting the army of the True Beginning Empire outside right now!
Even with trying to economize the use of Draugr's blood to *upgrade the race* of those people, their numbers were still small, they were literally in their own home, and yet no more than 300 thousand people have been seen around the wall from the demi-snake race, and they are all officers or young men still in the military training stage or old soldiers... Of course, whoever drinks Durger blood will not be left behind to work as a baker!
So who do they breed with? Yes, with human females.
Humans are the ones who run everything on the Poison Rock planet, from collecting water and making food, to using them for reproduction and simple administrative matters!
"I don't care whose son this is, you don't have to protect that thing anymore, you are free." Robin pointed at the child, he was looking at him with slitted eyes, a tongue playing and pointed fangs, he looked like he just got out from under a rock!
"That thing is my son!!" The woman hugged him even tighter.
"....." Robin didn't know what to say yet, so he turned his back to her and continued on his way, and she took the opportunity to grab her son and run out of the palace.
*Bang*
Robin kicked the huge throne room gate open like it was nothing, then walked in with his hands behind his back and an aggressive expression.
*Step* *Step*
After Robin climbed a few steps to the end of the hall, he found Pythor's throne in front of him, and sat on it without hesitation, "What a disgusting planet, this is the second time I feel like exterminating an entire race, but when I remember that there are children and innocents who did not participate in the crimes and are not guilty, my chest tightens and I feel like a butcher!"
Then he raised his head slightly, "What do you think? You know this race better than I do, do they deserve a chance?"
"....." The hall remained completely silent.
"Rocky, there's no need to stay silent. I realize that you've been refined and can appear, and I know for sure that you're watching me now," Robin waved, placing both hands on the throne's armrest, "Come out and let's have a discussion. I know that you don't mind my presence here, otherwise, my path wouldn't be easy. Your silence about what's happening says that you want this conversation just as much as I do. Come on then, perhaps exchanging words with you will make me forget about how uncomfortable this throne is."
*Gli* *Gli* A viscous liquid began to flow from the gaps between the palace tiles and then gathered to form the shape of a girl who had not yet reached the age of six, cute in appearance and had thick gelatinous hair covering one of her eyes, the little girl put a finger to her lips, "How did you know that I was watching you? There is a big war going on outside as you know, maybe I was watching them."
"It's simple, wherever I go, eyes follow me." Robin smiled confidently
"You are very arrogant, uncle." Rocky put her hand on her waist
"Uncle? Haha!" Robin leaned his head back and laughed softly, "You remind me of someone."
"Hmm, it seems that you have seen another planet's spirit," Rocky looked away.
"I haven't seen one yet, but I finished refining it too, what, you wanted me as an owner? That's fine, I can refine you too, I don't think she would mind." Robin smiled
"I don't like partners, uncle, do you have any other good candidates?" Rocky shook her head, "But that person would have to have at least 3,000 soul units to surpass Pythor and be able to snatch me away from him, if he had less, then even if I wanted to help him, he would be condemning himself to death."
"...?!" Robin raised his eyebrows to the side then threw his head back and laughed out loud, "Hahaha so you want to get rid of your owner to this extent?"
"I was created with the desire to serve my owner, but that doesn't mean I enjoy seeing my owner serve someone else." Rocky folded her arms, the sight of Pythor prostrating himself on the ground to another person in such submissiveness disgusted her every time she remembered it.
"Fair enough." Robin nodded a few times, "But unfortunately I don't have anyone working under me with 3,000 soul units yet, if you want someone else you'll have to wait until we kill Pythor and bring you a good candidate, why don't you help us? A few pieces of information here or there would be useful, for example, is there another space portal on the planet? What gift did you give him? Does he have any particular weaknesses?"
"I won't reveal anything about my owner." Rocky fell back to the ground, "I didn't resist you because I didn't receive orders to do so, and I didn't tell Pythor about your coming because I wasn't obligated, but I won't help you openly, I will act as a spectator until you two finish fighting and one emerges victorious, but..." After Rocky's incarnation disappeared underground Robin heard her voice, "...I hope you don't mess it up."
