Hail the King

Chapter 926: Predesigned Path of Death (Part One)

The most direct reward for Fei was the immense combat experience with a demi-god. Now, the king had a rough understanding of demi-gods’ combat style and strength, especially toward the power of realms. This experience was significant and crucial for Fei if he had to battle demi-gods in the future and try to advance to the Demi-God Realm.

Next, Fei was now more proficient at switching between the various characters and combining their skills and power. In this battle, Fei used his Barbarian, Paladin, and Assassin characters that were all at Hell Mode level 100. The effect of switching between various types of skills repeatedly was great, and Fei had a better understanding of the terrifying power of the skills from Diablo World.

Of course, the most valuable reward was Reus’ demi-godly core power. When Reus’ body shattered, Fei clearly sensed that a streak of dominating energy appeared inside the [Throne of Destruction]. After Reus disappeared, this dominating energy slowly scattered in the area. If a powerful master died in the outside world, the core energy would gradually disintegrate into the primary natural elements and spread around the area. However, the space inside the [Throne of Destruction] was limited. Even though this streak of energy dispersed, it could still be detected as it stuffed the limited space. By now, Fei detected that the [Throne of Destruction] seemed to have the ability of advancement; it was slowly absorbing the pure essence energy. When Reus’ core energy was completely absorbed, the [Throne of Destruction] seemed to have changed a little. The volume of the fragmented godly power in the air slightly increased, and the vague engravings and patterns on the dented floor and walls got a little clearer. action

“Could it be that the [Throne of Destruction] is in a damaged state, and it will transform into something surprising after absorbing enough energy?” Fei suddenly realized something. “If the [Throne of Destruction] completely restores its former glory, will it further increase my strength and suppress my opponents even more as well? Will it be that sick and insane?”

Fei stood up and walked around the [Throne of Destruction], and he confirmed his hypothesis after observing.

Then, Fei walked to where Reus disappeared. There was a faint-yellow cloth armor, and it was delicately made. It was inlaid with several perfect-tier magic gems, but the energy inside them were all used up. Also, it was clear that a female made this; a girl’s name was beautifully embroidered on it.

This was the last item that Young Lord Reus left in this world. It wasn’t a mighty treasure, but he kept it with him all this time. It was precious to him; perhaps it represented a remarkable romance and held special meaning.

Fei sighed and picked up this cloth armor.

...

-Dixie City-

Many people were nervously looking up at the clear blue sky.

Ever since the Alania Empire was re-established, the Capital of Alania had never been so quiet. Right now, only the howling sound of the wind and the light grinding noises of the fallen leaves could be heard aside from the racing heartbeats of close to one million people.

Inside the campsite of Chambord, Torres and his peers were the most nervous.

Although the king had left an impression of dominance and invincibility in these people’s minds given his long track record, and no opponent had previously troubled the king, it was completely different this time. Fei’s opponent was a demi-god, and masters on this level were rare to see; they were like monsters above the comprehension of mortals.

Everyone saw the battle prior in the sky. To a certain degree, the king was at a disadvantage. If the battle continued, he was most likely going to lose.

On the other side, those more than a dozen foreign Moon-Class Elites were also nervous. In their memory, their master had never battled an opponent for this long. Now, he even disappeared with his opponent. This was unheard of for them, and they wondered where he went.

Wait; there was only endless waiting.

Chapter 926: Predesigned Path of Death (Part Two)

At this moment, a blood-red flame flashed in the distant sky. About five hours had passed since the two masters disappeared, so no one knew what this red flame meant, and where the Human Emperor of the North and the young lord of Ormond had vanished to. No news was the best news for now; this was the only reason why the two sides had enough patience to wait. Since neither of the two masters appeared, it meant that the battle wasn’t over yet.

Undead Mage Hazel Bank frowned for a long time.

He guessed that the two masters went to battle in the mysterious void or the higher sky. Therefore, he wasn’t too worried about them disappearing. However, he was thinking hard and trying to figure out how Fei could win.

In the end, the Undead Mage arrived at one conclusion. If Fei didn’t have a god-tier combat weapon or the assistance from another demi-god, he was going to lose.

Time quickly passed by.

Just as everyone was about to lose their last bit of patience, and Torres and Hazel Bank decided to dash into the sky to find the battleground of the two masters, a mystical change occurred in the blue sky.

The space above Dixie City started to ripple like waves; it looked like something was going to appear.

This scene instantly attracted everyone’s attention, and loud chatters sounded in the area as if a volcano were erupting.

“Quick! Look over there!”

“What is appearing? Is the battle over? Human Emperor had won for sure! Humph! Where did this Ormondian come from? How dare he try to defeat the Human Emperor?”

“God Bless! Please! Bless the Human Emperor and make him win!”

“Who is going to come out? Don’t let it be that damn Ormondian!”

All Alanians kneeled on the ground, and they were sincerely praying. Even the young Emperor Leo kneeled on the square before the Royal Palace alongside hundreds of officials, and they all had their hearts in their throats. Also, Chambordians such as Torres and Hazel Bank were so nervous that they were suffocating. The dozen or so foreign Moon-Class Elites weren’t doing any better. This was the first time that they didn’t have confidence in their master in a battle.

In the sky, the ripples continued to appear like the surface of a lake in a wind.

This phenomenon continued for about 30 seconds, but it felt like three thousand years for these people. Finally, when the transparent ripples disappeared, a tall and handsome figure appeared in silence.

The long black hair fluttered in the wind like the waterfall, his eyes were cold and clear, and he was extremely handsome. His white royal robe looked as white as snow, and he looked like an ethereal god who was beyond the mortal realm.

Who else could he be other than the Human Emperor of the North?

Loud, tsunami-like cheers sounded in Dixie City. The Alanians were elated, and cheers and chants resonated in the air. Many Alanians hugged and cheered, let alone the Chambordians in the military campsite. They were celebrating like crazy.

“No! This is impossible! What is going on? Master, how...”

“Where is Master? Where is he?”

The dozen or so foreign masters paled, and they instantly got emotional. They couldn’t believe that their invincible master got defeated by a little king of an affiliated kingdom. Some of them even tried to rush up and attack Fei to avenge Reus, and some of them were anxious and fearful.

Fei waved his hand, and a powerful energy pressed down on the foreign masters, making them unable to move.

“This is the last item that he left in this world. You guys can bring it back.”

Fei placed the faint-yellow cloth armor that Reus left in the hands of a foreign master.

“Don’t be smug! The great Götze His Highness already designed a path of death for you! No one can escape from the calculation of Gotze His Highness. General Reus’ blood wouldn’t be wasted. Wait up, the King of Chambord!”

The foreign masters were no match for Fei. With Reus’ last item in hand, the foreign masters left in anger and hatred.
