Chapter 601 Issues of the Warlord
Robin quickly passed his soul sense over Julian's body to check his vital processes. When he made sure that it was really just exhaustion and that there were no serious injuries, he slowly placed him on the ground to sleep until the life troops arrived.
"There is not a drop of energy inside this brother's body..." said Jabba who was examining another sage next to Robin
Robin stood and passed his eyes over the rest of the soldiers, "...I noticed this, all of them look like they were battling for says, and it is not something out of the ordinary. The tattoos on their bodies absorb their energy to the maximum, This means that every second that passes by it will feel as if they are executing the strongest attack they can perform. This is the reason behind the suppressive aura of the Warlord, the reason why its attacks, even though they are only at the third stage, have enough power to confront a level 47 Emperor. I did not order them to disperse the Warlord immediately after they entered the covered training hall because I wanted to know their limits. I just did not expect that they would collapse so quickly and like this, and this destructive way..."
"There were a few problems I noticed during the Warlord's clash with the guards outside, but the discussions took us away from the subject and I didn't find an opportunity to address the issue, well this seems like a good opportunity," Jabba nodded and then went to stand next to Robin, "Master, you said that every second that passed was as if one of them had executed their most powerful attack, But the difference is that that attack disappears instantly afterward, but in this case that extracted energy remains present and is transferred to the Warlord. This means that the Warlord's energy does not gather all at once, but rather the Warlord continues to draw more energy from this battalion of sages and saints every second. This means that the further away the Warlord is from them, the more difficult and costly it becomes to transfer energy to it, right?"
Robin nodded, "...You are right, There are invisible cords of energy that always connect the Warlord and the battalion, the further the Warlord gets away from the battalion, the energy he receives will decrease and the speed of his response will decrease. The Warlord's maximum range away from the battalion is 4~5 kilometers, after which he will be forced to stop and retreat."
"Only 5 kilometers?! That would be enough to cover a ground battlefield, but battling at this level should have a lot more range!" Alexander furrowed his eyebrows, "Although I do not fully understand these things, let me express my opinion as well... Julian's Warlord, his entire body is made of pure energy, and this is good for one reason, which is that no matter how many attacks the Warlord receives, no one will die, but it also wastes a huge amount of energy unnecessarily in creating this huge body, energy that could have been used better... If the Warlord had a physical body, wouldn't that be enough to save this energy and prolong his operation?"
Robin nodded a few times, agreeing with Alexander, "There is another problem, which is that Julian is exhausted soul-wise more than physically. Controlling a warlord of this strength and size puts a terrible strain on soul force. I originally chose Julian because he is an expert in the Half-Step Emperor Realm as well and he has been using the soul-strengthening technique for a long time, it can even be said in terms of the soul he is among the 100 strongest people in the army, and yet his mental exhaustion has brought him to the point of collapse like this."
He then let out a long sigh and shook his head, "It seems that I need further development on the Warlord Array before it can be practically used."
Jabba placed his hand on his master's shoulder, "Don't let this get you down. The Warlords will change the game forever when they are completed!"
Robin smiled and looked at the sky above, then nodded slowly, "Yes... there is finally a glimmer of hope." Then he seemed to remember something and turned to Jabba, "Speaking of the glimmers of hope, why are you still standing here? Aren't you going to start working on your body cultivation system?"
"Aha.. Ahaha... This will take a long time. Although I remember all the steps, I have to design techniques and arrays for each step separately. Staying here for a few minutes will not hinder me much." Jabba scratched his head and laughed sheepishly
Over the past three years, his master had created fourth-stage techniques for at least 8 major laws, and in his free time, he was having fun with the Warlord Array. Compared to this ease, he felt that it would take him dozens of years to finish!
"Haha, that's okay. This is your first time creating something of your own. Naturally, it will take time. The important thing is that you always move forward and do not stop no matter what." Robin slapped his student on the back
Then he looked at Moren, "I don't want to keep you here any longer since you want to return to guarding the headquarters with Amon and Sakaar. Now go to the warehouses and receive from Zara the techniques of the fourth stage of the laws that you want and take whatever resources and weapons you want, and do not forget, inform me when the seventh wave comes."
"Thank you, Lord." The demon bowed slightly and then disappeared
Robin then looked at Alexander and Jabba again, "It is my responsibility to fix the problems with the Warlord Array, but providing soldiers who use the array is entirely your responsibility, or do you think this is inappropriate?"
Alexander and Jabba looked at each other before Alexander began speaking first, "For me as a governor there are only two options. First, convince the people of the Ancestral Continent to join the army and then you will receive a huge boost but this falls on Your Excellency's hands as well since just inviting them wouldn't do any good. The second choice is to use the local population of Greenland, The number of saints and sages among them is increasing daily, and soon their numbers might cross the continents of the four elements on the planet Jura, but they are also the key to the war against the Tree Fathers and the Human Alliance, and we cannot withdraw many of them from Greenland or else we will lose this planet."
"...There is nothing I can say to the inhabitants of the Ancestral Continent. I have said everything I have in the of the Great Green Hill announcement, there is nothing left but to let time treat those who are treatable... As for the local tribes, you are right, they are an available option, but we must leave them as the last one..." Robin nodded several times with furrowed eyebrows, then looked at Jabba, "What about you, what do you suggest?"
"Me? What could I do about something like this?!" Jabba shook his head
"I know you'll be busy with that new cultivation method, but you've assembled a Research and Development Team, right? What are they doing now?"
"Although it may not seem like that, they are actually doing a lot... A number of them are working on finding a way to cut the tree bark faster, and some of them are experimenting with pill and medicinal paste recipes and a number of options for using the herbs we have discovered, and there are a few individuals who are exploring ways to use the corpses of the buds as well, and a few of them are trying to modify your arrays and talismans to find other uses for them, and there are members specialized in collecting all the available books from all the planets that we can access and collecting them in one encyclopedia, things like this you know~ All branches have already begun to show results, and all branches can have military applications that help in war!"
Robin nodded with a satisfied expression on his face, "This is really impressive since they don't have the eyes of truth to see what we see, I will find a way to help them with this matter later..." Then he shrugged, "That doesn't mean that more work can't be added to them. I need you to recruit a few more to do research on the subject of talents, find out why some people stumble on the cultivation path, and find ways to improve the breakthrough percentages, okay?"
"...This will take some time but okay, I'll start assembling that team right away." Jabba nodded slightly as if he was already thinking about how to begin
"Good," Robin clapped, "You can go back to your work again, I'll also go back to my seclusion for a while..."
