Chapter 305 The Council Decides

Gtt the ltest vls at .o/(v)/e/l/bi(.)co

Nihari Union Sect Elders Hall-- seven days later--

"Focusing the intelligence squad in the sect and all the tribes on getting continuous updates from the northern region? Demanding to double the number of armies many times? Double the number of Rune Masters and send them to the tribes to draw divine tattoos for everyone for free?! ...What exactly does the sect master intend to do?" One of the elders said, surprised

"Do not forget that he asked to double the lands we dedicate to the herbs we feed the high level mounts as soon as possible, and to double the numbers of our special forces, and all this within a time limit of one year! One year" another muttered

"There is also his order to make the inner energy system public and support the cultivators with energy stones... His orders will eat up all the money we have been collecting all along... and for what? Do you... Do you think he wants to...?"

"He definitely wants to invade the northern region!!" Someone clenched his hand and spoke, " Even we as the entire united eastern region won't have this one easy, he wants to destroy the planet for a personal problem!!"

"The Northern Region has emperors! How can we simply attack them?! He himself was in favor of staying away from them before! Now because of a personal problem he wants to throw us into Hell?!" Another elder stood up and shouted

"This wouldn't do for me! How can the army of my tribe which has just woken up from multiple devastating battles plunge itself into a war against the northern region? and in one year at that?! This is the northern region we are talking about!!!" The chief of one of the Seven Giants' Tribes hit the table, and the rest of the chiefs nodded

The chiefs of the seven tribes that aligned themselves with the sect, and all the sect elders, the absolute rulers of the eastern region of Nihari were all here!

Under this roof, the highest meeting that had happened since the war against the Second Heaven's Chosen has taken place.

Thandor raised his hand to restore the calmness of the hall, then spoke softly as he looked toward the elders, "Sect Head Robin has our utmost respect and appreciation, he is the one who founded this sect for you and made it your safe haven and made you equal to us giants."

The sect elders tilted their heads and bit their lips, even Orzon gave a long sigh

Then he returned to look at the other six tribal chiefs, "He also helped us to multiply our lands at least five times the size of what it was, he gave us strength and equipment we never dreamed of, and we, for the first time, live in true peace with each other thanks to him."

The six chiefs also bowed their heads, not knowing what to say, when they swore allegiance to the Nihari Union sect it was just a lucky test to see if that suspicious sect could really help them, later they saw for themselves how far they had come thanks to them.. thanks to Robin!

"But!" Thunder shouted suddenly and caught everyone's attention again, "Our gratitude to Sect Head Robin does not mean that we throw our lives into hell against our will because he said so!

Don't get me wrong, if Sect Head Robin wants us to do anything within our limits we must do it no doubt, but if we are forced to attack the North... Then this council that will decide our course, not personal whims!"

"Well said!"

" You are absolutely right!"

After Thandor finally uttered what was going on in everyone's head, the cheers rose to support his *great vision*, and the talk in the rest of the meeting became much more open.

After another week--- The administrative district of Jura City--- Inside of what looks like a giant metal storehouse

"How is it possible that you haven't discovered anything yet?! This might be our biggest discovery since we got here!!" A middle-aged man shouted forcefully, the aura he released to pressure those present was that of a level 34 sage!

"W- we are sorry, sir, but there are no books or tablets left to explain what this huge edifice is, and everyone who worked on it was under the influence of the oath tablet, some of them died when we tried to force a word out of them!" Someone standing behind him spoke while looking at the ground, shockingly he was a level 32 sage...

That mid-level sage turned in exasperation, "What do you mean by this? Is there no way to decipher this arc? Robin Burton wouldn't build something that big without gaining some huge benefit out of it, the information we got says he spent months inside this warehouse, personally building and engraving on this huge semicircle! We MUST know everything about this thing!!"

"w-.. we are working on it! But" replied that low-level sage, "But first we need to figure out how to encrypt and show all the Runes on the surface, and then carefully study each one of them until we know what we are dealing with, that will take some time a lot from him actually...."

"What?! You still haven't even been able to decipher the external cipher? Supposedly you are one of the smartest sages in the empire and one of the most important innovators of techniques in the empire, you spent thousands of years discovering minor laws and figuring out new attacking techniques, you fool even dared to try to upgrade our Major Heavenly Law Fire Technique! you are the head of the investigation team, for what was happing in the land, for heaven's sake!!

We are counting on you to find out what Robin Burton was doing here but you speak of this weakness? Are you declaring your defeat in front of A boy that didn't even reach 200 years of age?!"

"Of course, I can do it! But.. give me some time.. these are things I've never seen or heard about before, I don't know where Robin Burton got all this from, If he is really the one who created it, then he IS a genius in every sense of the word"

"Aren't you ashamed of speaking like a fan boy, old man? don't give me this crap and just say Approximately how long do you need?" The mid-level sage said angrily

"...Ask me this question again in a hundred years and might give you an answer."

"WHAT THE F-?! ....Hmmm?"

*BZZzZzZZZZzzz*

The mid-level Sage almost started yelling when he heard the response of the head of the investigation team, but suddenly the giant semicircle next to him started making strange sounds, and the void in the middle began to turn into a semi-transparent slab.

"What is happening here..?" The sage furrowed his eyebrows and fixed his gaze towards the semicircle, the head of the investigation team and all his team behind him watched closely as well, trying their best to memorize what was going on

They have been here studying every bit of the magnificent semicircle for years, but nothing like this happened before!

*step... step.... step.....*
