Hail the King

Chapter 911: Mysterious Monster (Part One)

It sounded like a giant monster was going to rush out of the Castellan Estate since the loud noises resembled footsteps. Every time the footstep-like noise sounded, the ground shrieked in pain.

Then, cracking noises resonated in the area, and visible cracks appeared on the stone walls around the Castellan Estate.

Fei waved his hand, and the 600 white-armored warriors of Chambord received his command and backed out of the battlefield in unison.

They were the main characters in this bloody battle, yet they didn’t make any noises.

Like a group of white ghosts in the night, they were quick and agile. Although they defeated an elite legion of Anji, they didn’t suffer any casualties. Their white armor was completely snow-white; not a single drop of blood dripped onto them. When the warrior energy flames engulfed them, it was impossible for spilled blood even to get close to them.

This victory of a few versus many seemed legendary in others’ eyes, but it was only a warm-up for the warriors of Chambord; they didn’t even use their full strength.

Further away, Alanians stared at the white-armored soldiers of Chambord, and they were dumbfounded.

While Anna and Edward were envious, they smiled bitterly and thought, “If our Alania Empire had such an elite troop, it wouldn’t have been conquered by Anji so easily.”

There were still 3,000 to 4,000 Anjian soldiers left, but they completely lost the courage to battle, and they couldn’t put up any defense.

The military officers were all killed by Torres’ arrows.

The ordinary soldiers weren’t afraid of ferocious battle, but they realized that they couldn’t even harm their enemies’ hair even though they risked their lives fearlessly. After discovering that, their courage melted like a snowflake on a hot summer day, disappearing instantly.

The blood gathered and formed a small river, flowing on the ground.

Corpses that were cut in half lay all around the Castellan Estate, and the Anjian soldiers who were fleeing dropped their weapons out of fear. Without question, these thousands of soldiers lost their bravery. Even if they could escape from this place alive, they would never dare to walk onto a battlefield again.

Boom!

The firm stone walls around the Castellan Estate were finally broken by the strong shaking, and six giant beasts appeared out of the thick dust; they had violent and destructive auras around them.

As soon as they appeared, all the people in the area gasped.

They were a type of monsters that no one had ever seen before. Like lizards that were skinned, red liquid flowed on their red flesh, looking like thick blood. In fact, this liquid was even wriggling a little, and it was a terrifying sight.

Each of these monsters was about four meters tall and six meters long, and streaks of red mist engulfed them, making their heads seem vague and indistinguishable. Red light beams shot out of their eye sockets, and their sharp, white fangs looked more horrifying under the illumination of the red light, making them resemble demons that just escaped from Hell.

“Puff…” The monsters snorted, and streaks of nose-piercing, blackish-red mist shot out of their nostrils and dispersed into the area.

A few Anjian soldiers who were fleeing got engulfed by this blackish-red mist by accident, and they shrieked in pain.

Fizz!

A series of noises could be heard, and it sounded like acid was corroding and eating away flesh.

Everyone gasped and was stunned by what they saw.

These poor Anjian soldiers’ skin was completely corroded and melted, revealing the bloody muscles and blood vessels underneath. Their eyeballs dropped out of their eye sockets, and their facial muscles started to wither at a terrifying speed.

This process lasted less than five seconds, and these soldiers stopped screaming.

These few Anjian soldiers were turned into… zombies? They were turned into zombies that brought limitless destruction to Alanians!

“Is this the source of the evil power of Hell that turns creatures into zombies?” Fei thought to himself while light flashed in his eyes. What he was seeing validated some of his guesses.

Chapter 911: Mysterious Monster (Part Two)

These mysterious monsters that were freed looked around, and they roared and charged into the groups of Anjian soldiers who were the closest to them before opening their bloody mouths.

Like hungry dogs, their tongues that were about a meter long shot out like bullets and coiled around the soldiers before pulling them back, and these monsters chewed on them mercilessly.

Killing and screams appeared again, and blood and internal organs flew in all directions.

The Anjian soldiers who just lost courage were no match for these terrifying and powerful monsters. Except for trying to dodge, they also had to try and avoid the blackish-red mist that was around the monsters. If they got close to the terrifying and strange mist, their life energy would be robbed away, and they would turn into zombies that were controlled by the dark power of Hell.

It was clear that these monsters were not interested in zombies. With a level of agility that didn’t match their large size, they dashed around the chaotic soldiers like red lightning bolts and devoured these people to their hearts’ content. While they roared in pleasure, they turned all the living beings around them into food.

This terrifying yet tragic scene made others feel like it was the end of the world, and a series of gasps sounded.

Alanians who were watching from afar quickly backed off, and the ones who were more afraid already turned around and fled. Charles Adam and his peers tried their best to command the soldiers in the Alanian resistance force to maintain order.

Anna and Edward’s expressions changed, and they put up their arms, trying to protect survivors like Leo while slowly backing off.

Everyone was able to sense the horrifying power of these six unnamed bloody monsters. Since none of the Alanians could battle these monsters, they had to place their hopes on that black-haired man in the white robe.

“Roar!”

A monster finally discovered Fei and the Chambordian soldiers, and it roared before turning into a red lightning bolt and charging at them viciously. With the boiling blackish-red mist around it, it dashed toward Fei like a collapsing mountain while blood dripped down its brush-like tongue.

At this moment, Fei already finished observing, and he lost interest in continuing watching them.

Without needing Fei, the blond and handsome Torres pulled on his bow, and his green wind-elemental warrior energy formed six arrows. When his fingers released the bowstring, the six arrows turned into six flashes of light.

These arrows were so fast that before the ordinary people could hear the vibration of the bowstring and see the arrows traveling in the air, the six terrifying and mysterious monsters all exploded, turning into finely minced flesh and blooming bloodflower.

Bang! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Then, people heard the loud bowstring vibration noises and the air-piercing noises of the arrows.

Such mighty archery skill!

Gasps and applause sounded; Alanians were shocked by the power of their ally again.

Anna and Edward looked at each other, and they felt like all the surprises already numbed them.

Under Fei’s guidance, they both successfully became One-Star Warriors, and their understanding of the world grew as well. Therefore, they knew the power of these arrows better than ordinary people.

They had thought that Torres might be an Eight-Star Warrior, and they felt like they overestimated this blond young man. However, they now realized that it was a gross understatement.

The leaders of the Alanian resistance force were shocked more than anyone else.

Charles Adam, who was the only Three-Star Warrior in the city, smiled bitterly, and he thought, “The Chambord Kingdom sure is full of talented people, and it isn’t only based on the King of Chambord’s strength. No wonder this kingdom is like a legend in the Northern Region of Azeroth. Leaving everything else aside, this little guard of the king who looks common has the power to dominate over a region and destroy weak empires. Even when our Alania Empire was still around about half a year ago, no one could rival this young man.”

Suddenly, a terrifying scream sounded in the crowd.
