Hail the King

Chapter 846: Returning to the Capital (Part One)

Drogba and Pierce were both Moon-Class Elites, and they followed Lampard and Military Advisor Old Aryang to the war in the southern region of Zenit and assisted Second Prince Dominguez. They had accumulated extensive battle experience, and they sharpened their mind and will on the battlefield. Although their strengths didn’t skyrocket, their mentalities were elevated.

Right now, both of them were at the mid-tier Half Moon Realm, and only a few mysterious masters could rival them in St. Petersburg. Therefore, with their strengths, they could almost do anything they want. Taking care of these few warriors of the Anji Empire was like playing for these dull strongmen, and they didn’t worry much about this.

After entering the courtyard, they met an ordinary-looking young man who seemed like a worker here. They each said the secret codes that corresponded, and that young man immediately turned respectful before leading them into the pavilion and down to the dark basement.

This basement was empty; there was nothing except for a portal which the destination of the teleportation was known. Right now, it was flashing and operating smoothly.

The two of them stepped into the portal, and a light flashed. When they opened their eyes again, they saw that they were inside an even more mysterious basement. The semi-god-tier runes were everywhere on the walls, blocking all possible auras in this space. It felt like this space was created inside the void, and it was secure; no one could find it.

“Hahaha! Two generals! Long time no see!” crisp laughter sounded as a blond young man with a silver half-mask stood up and greeted them.

“Mr. Modric!” Pierce and Drogba didn’t dare to slight him.

Although Modric joined Chambord and served Fei later compared to these two strongmen, the king placed great importance on this young man whose nickname was [Young Man]. He could be counted as one of the core members of Chambord, and his status was even beyond Drogba and Pierce. Also, all the high-level officials of Chambord had witnessed the hard work that Modric had put into the [Letter Office] that fueled the Chambord Kingdom’s rise, and these two strongmen respected this man who was younger than them from the bottom of their hearts.

It wasn’t clear where exactly this mysterious room was. In this large room, except for [Young Man] Modric, Pierce, and Drogba, there were four powerful New Moon Elites of the [Letter Office] present. After the three top-tier officials of Chambord greeted each other, they waited for something patiently.

In the center of the mysterious room, there were some magic runes engraved on the ground, and it seemed like they were used for marking the locations.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

A series of space-tearing noises sounded. As the magic array continued to flash, a sky-blue oval-shaped portal appeared on the magic array. The magic energy flames continued to expand and contract, and a tall figure whom everyone was waiting for appeared and walked out of the portal like a flash of lightning after it stabilized.

“Greetings, Your Majesty!” The seven masters in this room all kneeled.

This man was in a white robe, and his black hair was as thick as the waterfall. He was tall, and his muscles gave off a wild presence even though they weren’t bulging that much. As if this man were made from a piece of godly iron, he was glistening, and he was handsome. His eyebrows were sharp, his eyes were shiny, and he looked dignified even though he wasn’t displaying any emotions. He was none other than King Alexander who liked showing off.

After he was locked inside the [Sad Sigh of Godly Grace] that was created by the golden skeleton for four days, Fei was worried that he might be late, so he contacted the [Letter Office] and traveled through more than 20 super-long-distance portable teleportation arrays and used a lot of magic crystals. However, he was able to come back to St. Petersburg in only one day; he arrived even earlier than D’Alessandro and the Moon-Class Elites who were eager to destroy the Chambord Kingdom.

“Get up.” Fei lightly raised his hands, and a soft and gentle energy rushed out of his body and propped up these seven people.

Chapter 846: Returning to the Capital (Part Two)

Fei’s return trip was a top secret. Except for a few high-level officials of Chambord and the high-ranking members of the [Letter Office] which were the seven people in the room right now, no one else knew that the King of Chambord who was rumored to have disappeared at the bottom of the sea had returned to the Zenit Empire.

The eight of them left the room. On the way, Modric told Fei everything that had happened in the Capital of Zenit these days, including the envoys from the various empires, and stances of the nobles in St. Petersburg, and the strange silence of the Royal Family.

Soon, they returned to the ground level.

It turned out that mysterious room was still in St. Petersburg, and it was only about 100 meters away from the courtyard that Drogba and Pierce entered. As long as someone got to a high position, they could see exactly what was happening in that small courtyard even if the observers didn’t have warrior energy or magic energy; this was an intelligent setup.

The four Moon-Class Elites guarded the door, and Pierce, Drogba, and Modric followed Fei into the building. The two dull strongmen tried to beat each other and tell the king about what had happened tonight.

“The Anji Empire is only a level 2 empire. It didn’t show anything before, but it conquered four adjacent level 1 empires quickly in less than one month when the Chaos Era arrived. It gained a lot of fame recently, and it was dominant, seeming to become a little overlord in the Northern Region of Azeroth.

Emperor Suleyman Kerimov of Anji is quite young, and he took the throne a year ago. His identity is mysterious, and he is wealthy and had recruited some independent warriors and masters. This emperor had been hostile toward Zenit. It is heard that his goal was to challenge Emperor Yassin. But since Your Majesty got more popular after you defeated the Ten-Empire United Troops, he has been targeting you and had said multiple times that he would crush your legend.”

[Young Man] Modric quickly debriefed Fei on the information of the Anji Empire.

“No wonder these envoys of Anji are so arrogant. Their empire could be considered powerful… you two dull hammers; they are defecating on our heads, and you only beat a little cavalier?” Fei wasn’t interested in the history of the Anji Empire, but he expressed his disapproval of the treatment that Drogba and Pierce gave to the enemies tonight.

“Your Majesty, please forgive us. We will now go and kill those damn envoys of Anji.” The king’s words instigated the two dull strongmen, and they instantly blushed and stood up before walking out murderously.

“Don’t kill them; I’m trying to see what game they are playing. Just play with them a little.” Fei didn’t stop them.

After those two strongmen left the room, they flashed and disappeared into the darkness.

Modric wiped his sweat and was about to say something when a series of buzzing noises sounded. A dash of dark-red light flashed into the room, and it turned into a dark-red hummingbird and chirped while landing in Modric’s hand.

Hummingbirds were swift, fast, and cute. Such little demon beasts were extraordinarily speedy and had some ability to travel through space. Queen Angela used her innate ability and tamed a herd of hummingbirds, and they became one way of delivering information for the [Letter Office].

There was a delicate silver neck-ring hiding under the feather on its neck, and it was a spatial storage device. Modric injected some magic energy into the neck-ring according to a mystical rhythm, and a red letter flowed out of the ring.

He skimmed through the letter, and his face changed color. He quickly reported to Fei, “No.2 Disciple of the Continental Martial Saint, D’Alessandro, and his people have passed the [Sea of Fragrance] and entered the territory of Zenit. It seems like he is trying to show off and pressure the Royal Family; this group of people is moving forward slowly and didn’t hide their identities. Also, they had said that if the Royal Family doesn’t appear before the sunrise the day after tomorrow and make a decision, they were going to wipe out the entire Royal Family. About three hours ago, this group of people divided into two groups. One group is being led by a Sun-Class Lord named Albeda and have 25 people, heading toward the Chambord Kingdom. The other group of 20 Moon-Class Elites is coming toward St. Petersburg with D’Alessandro in the lead. According to their speed, they will arrive at their destinations before the sunrise on the day after tomorrow.”
