Chapter 2350

2350 - The Day of Striking

After nearly two weeks—

“…..” He was staring at the sky with barely open golden eyes.

Compared to the day he released Hedrick's restraints, he could now sit upright, open his eyes freely, and even activate the Eye of Truth to display a golden glow at up to 40% strength… but he had not returned to his former state.

Two weeks after removing Renara's limits, he had already regained his full vitality, but now, two weeks after removing Hedrick's limits, he still felt tired, as if something was off.

Whoosh At that moment, a Shadow Sword appeared beside Robin, kneeling, and handed him a metal chip.

“Hmm.” Robin deactivated the Eye of Truth, began gently rubbing his eyes, then extended his left hand to receive the chip, immediately infusing his spirit into it.

After a few seconds, he nodded a few times and turned the chip to dust.

Then he looked at Hedrick with half-open eyes, “Are you ready?”

Clatter Clatter

Hedrick was sitting in a meditative posture at that moment, but he was far from calm.

The air around him continued to tremble, the ground kept pulsating, and the sky relentlessly struck with lightning. He was using simple movements and precise energy injections to try and control his surroundings, attempting to discover the limits of his power and refine the accuracy of his strikes.

"Hmm." The moment his name was called, Hedrick opened his eyes and stood up.

Zzzzng The legendary sword lying nearby flew into his hand... then he walked confidently toward Robin. "Is it time?"

"Ah." Robin nodded. "I know you need more time to master your new power—even years wouldn't be enough—but I need you to set out today. Renara is also on her way to Zargul's galaxy at this moment, and her attack will begin within minutes."

Then he continued, "I will open a gate for you to Darvion. When you arrive, attack immediately. A large number of Shadow Swords, special forces, and several dormant cells planted there will move with you. You won't be alone. You just advance, and leave the thinking and command to them. Renara will receive the same support as well."

"No problem, I'm ready. Besides, practical experience will speed up the process. It'll also be good to find out whether my control or Renara's is better by now." Hedrick cracked his neck left and right with a confident smile. Over the past two weeks, he had heard a lot about Glacion, the most important being that Renara was in a similar situation to his current one.

When he heard that, he shuddered... If he had refused Robin's offer, he would have emerged after 105 years only to get his ass kicked by a girl like Renara?!

Hedrick let out a cold breath. "Just out of curiosity, is there anything special about today that made you move all the pieces like this?"

"Nothing in particular." Robin raised his head slightly. "But I need to send a quick message to certain people—whether those I know or those I don't—the great ones of the Universe who pull the strings from behind the curtain, who take orders from behind the wall."

"What's the message?" Hedrick's eyes gleamed.

"..." Robin's smile appeared. "That I'm ready to chew through bones, of course."

Then he continued, "By the end of the day, Zargul and Darvion must be completely finished. Then the Shadow Swords will swiftly take control of the Sectors between 97 and 105."

He then pointed toward Hedrick. "After that, you will go to Zavarus in Middle Sector 106 and gradually join the war against your brothers until you drive them back to Sector 110. Then you will go to Kiryān and help him push your father back until you corner him in Sector 110 with what remains of his armies... At that point, you, Zavarus, and Kiryān will attack and destroy him."

"...As for Renara, once you finish with Zargul and stabilize your rule over Sectors 98 and 97, you will go to assist in Sector 100 to crush any remaining resistance. Then you will gradually fight your way through Middle Sector 95 until you reach the Behemoth of Gravity, then the Behemoth of Relativity, and then any other son of a bitch who stands in your way."

"...You will pierce through the left, and Renara will tear through the right, backed by my armies, my wealth, and my innovations." Robin raised his voice. "Who under this sky can stop me?"

Then he flashed a sly smile. "There are certainly those who can—those who will gather, those who will rage, those who will crawl out of their holes... There are those who will try to halt my absolute and unwavering march toward control of the universe. But far be it."

Bam! Robin slammed his hand on his seat. "My inevitable path to glory will be stopped by no one."

Knock.

Hedrick's heart leaped as he saw Robin speak in that manner, hearing such grand words, yet when they came out of his mouth… they sounded natural, they sounded like truth.

"Understood." Hedrick waved his sword lightly.

The Golden Engravings began to appear on Robin's body at that moment, then he pointed in a certain direction.

Huuuum

Robin gestured weakly toward the Golden Gate, "Take your companion and go, destroy Darvion and refine the galaxy for yourself… then wait for the Shadow Swords for further detailed orders."

"…." Hedrick nodded, then took a step.

Space of Middle Sector 102—

Whoosh Whoosh

Booom

With a blank expression, Hedrick watched several ships rapidly entering and dozens of Phantom Shadow ships attacking the outer planets of the galaxy, striking the Array positions with extreme precision, pulling the defensive fleets away.

He also saw hundreds of Nexus States, World Calamities, and Soul Masters clashing with several fleets, fighting with all their might to open a path for him.

As for that sight, Hedrick smiled, "Let's go, Drais, this is my first day working as a subordinate, let's see how it ends." Hedrick advanced.

Mid Sector 98—

Renara gripped her spear tightly as she watched the fleets of the Grave Empire bombard Zargul's galaxy, and saw Aru personally leading the assault after decades of recovery, to clear a path for her.

"Hoooh~" Renara let out a long sigh. "Zargul, I don't know you, and you don't know me, but the blade does not stop to ask its owner whose blood it will spill next." Then she began to advance. "Blame your luck for standing in the Lord's way."

Middle Sector 101—

Clack Glacion placed the teacup on the small ice table in front of Robin, then stood beside him, silently staring at the human youth.

Finally, he gathered his courage. "Are you ready for the consequences of what will happen today, my Lord?"

Robin, who had been looking at his trembling hand, let it rest on the seat and raised his head to watch the sky. "...No, I don't understand the magnitude of the power I'm facing, but I've decided to walk that path, and that's that... I've decided to make them fear me, to take the initiative, rather than be the reaction."

Then he narrowed his eyes slightly. "I just want to buy some time, and with the shock that will strike the Universe today, I think I'll get a few years."

"Buy time to do what exactly, my Lord?" Glacion asked.

"...." Robin narrowed his eyes. "To find out what happened to that Old Elder!"
