Hail the King

“This……” Fei instantly sensed this energy.

It was extremely warm as if it was the kiss and the caress of a loved one. This energy flowed into his body, and the pain he was experiencing from his body breaking down and healing back up disappeared. Unlike Warrior Energy and Magic Energy, although this energy wasn’t unlimited, it was of higher quality. Fei even felt like the quality of this energy was even higher than the energy in the huge hand that was coming at him.

At this moment, it seemed like a seed that was inside his body was slowly growing and forming a bud.

Under the empowerment from this energy, the situation took an unexpected turn. As if a pig saw a Holy Dragon, the huge hand that was dominating over Fei started to hesitate and didn’t dare to move forward anymore.

……

Everyone was surprised on the defense wall of Dual-Flags City.

That silver light poured down from the defense wall and entered Fei’s body, and the origin of this silver light was…… Queen Angela who didn’t have any Warrior Energy or Magic Energy.

Although this light was weak, it was majestic and indefensible. As if a god made an appearance, a terrifying pressure appeared and made everyone want to kneel down and worship her. Everyone lowered their heads; they felt like they would be guilty if they looked at this pure girl in white! It was offensive to the gods!

“Angela……” a complex emotion appeared in Lampard’s eyes.

As he looked at that silver light which was pouring out of Angela’s body, he felt like this girl was familiar yet strange to him. Memories from more than 20 years ago flooded through the seals and into his head, and he couldn’t do anything about it. This girl in front of him looked like a goddess, and so did that girl from 26 years ago.

Everyone around the Queen of Chambord kneeled.

……

“This…… how? The power of gods?”

That man in red standing on the peak of the sand hill shouted in surprise; his cold and composed persona was shattered.

Modoc and Fairenton who were standing behind their master were surprised by that silver light appearing on the defense wall, but they felt like their hearts were hammered after they heard their master’s shout. With their mouths open, their expressions looked strange. It was their first time seeing their master behaving this way; even when the King of Chambord created numerous metal silver dragons using pure sword energies, their master wasn’t this surprised.

“The power of gods? Could it be that a god is hiding in Dual-Flags City?” Modoc and Fairenton thought as they couldn’t believe their ears.

The man in red lightly shivered as he murmured to himself in a voice that only he could hear, “Interesting…… being able to summon the power that only the gods could control as a mortal…… who is this girl? Could it be…… how is this possible? Too bad that there is a limit to how much power she could summon, and she isn’t my match. If she gets stronger, she would be a real trouble for me! Great! I will kill her now to eliminate the risk!”

After making up his mind, the man in red stepped forward again.

However, the environment changed due to his small movement.

The huge hand that was more than 1,000 meters away from him suddenly had a red energy flame burning on it, and it instantly dashed forward quickly. Unlike before, it seemed like this man in red was planning to destroy Dual-Flags City’s defense wall as well as people on and around it such as Fei and Angela.

Fei’s face changed color as he felt bitter.

A mystic change was happening in his body, and he was elevating and advancing in levels. A mysterious path of cultivation was slowly revealing itself in Fei’s head, and that seed was quickly growing and thickening in Fei’s body. The two clouds of golden essence that Fei got after he defeated Ancient Talic and Korlic were hidden in his body before, but they were now being stimulated and were being sucked in by Fei’s bones and muscles…… As all these changes were taking place, Fei realized that he couldn’t move his body; he couldn’t even summon the teleport portal and enter Diablo World to dodge the attack.

That huge hand was coming at him mercilessly.

Even that mysterious silver light coming out of Angela’s body couldn’t even defend against this strike. That silver light started to disperse, and the blood dripping down from Angela’s lips stained the chest area of her white dress.

At this moment, this situation was extremely dangerous.

As everyone was going to watch Fei die under this strike, something shocking happened.

A surge of earth elemental Magic Energy appeared as if there was a storm in the desert, and all the earth elements in the area flew into the sky. The yellow energy flames instantly covered the bright sun in the sky, and clouds gathered and formed a vast cloud vortex.

Before anyone could react, a huge yellow pillar that looked like a magic wand extended out of the vortex.

This colossal magic wand looked like a dry tree branch that was magnified many times, and some people felt like they could still see the cracks and smaller branches on this magic wand. Multiple yellow magic runes were circling this magic wand, and it looked like this magic wand was moving slowly. However, it was able to block that huge hand before it could do any real damage.

At that moment, a lot of people closed their eyes.

As the two powerful strikes collided, they thought that there would be destructive energy waves and residual energies flying around.

However……

Only the wind lightly breezed through them, and that terrifying and storm-like energy waves didn’t appear.

Tens of thousands of soldiers and commanders on both side slowly opened their eyes.

40 meters away from Dual-Flags City, the huge hand that had a vague red glare to it and almost destroyed Dual-Flags City collided into a colossal magic wand. There weren’t any energy waves expanding outward. Instead, like two phantoms, they slowly disappeared after crashing into each other. It felt like they never existed before.

In the next moment, all the natural phenomena disappeared, and the sun reappeared in the sky.

If there weren’t surging fire elements and earth elements in the air, people would feel like they were dreaming.

“[Snow Mountain Hermit], why get murderous on a junior?” a deep and thick voice sounded from the inside the Dual-Flags City, and this majestic voice was clearly heard throughout the battlefield.

He was a master!

This man was hidden in Dual-Flags City, and no one discovered him beforehand. At this critical moment, he showed himself and saved Fei as well as Dual-Flags City.

“Humph! I only want to teach him a lesson! The disciple of Big Snow Mountain couldn’t be shamed like that!” that man in red replied, and everyone in the area heard him loud and clear as well as if it was the ringing of a big bell.

“Let the juniors take care of the matters themselves,” that majesty and mighty voice sounded again inside Dual-Flags City.

There was a moment of silence.

No one knew what the man in red was thinking about. For a moment, the only sound that could be heard was the flapping noises of the flags.

The silence felt deadly and terrifying.

Beside Dual-Flags City, Fei’s eyes were getting brighter and brighter. He could feel that the unique and mystic changes occurring in his body were approaching the end. All the injuries on his body were healed, and his body was even stronger now as if he was reborn! In fact, his body looked like it was made from steel as it was hard and sturdy.

After half a minute, that man in red turned around and walked towards the tents not too far away from him. No one could see his face, but they could all guess that his mood wasn’t as calm as he looked.

It was obvious that this man in red was a little afraid of this mysterious master.

Perhaps he didn’t think it was the best time to battle with this mysterious master; it felt like he was waiting for something.
