Hail the King

Chapter 969: A Terrible Answer (Part One)

Fei’s spirit energy radiated out like waves.

After sensing for a while, Fei was sure that the demon of Hell had already escaped, and he relaxed a bit more.

Although this demon of Hell escaped, the situation was better than Fei expected. At least people like Akara and Cain weren’t affected, and they weren’t injured. This sealed space was still in complete control of Chambord.

After thinking for a bit, Fei entered the giant sealed egg that was broken in front of him.

The world inside the giant sealed egg was utterly different from the sealed space. Lightning bolts continuously flashed, and thunder repeatedly rumbled. Strong gales blew in all directions, and heavy rain poured down from the sky. While Fei was standing in mid-air, lightning bolts struck toward him non-stop as if the gods were condemning him. This place was terrifying and comparable to Hell.

After exiting this egg, Fei started to feel a little sympathetic toward the demon that just escaped. Anyone who got locked inside that egg and was struck by lightning bolts for 1,000 years would go crazy. No wonder this demon reacted so aggressively when Fei tried to strengthen the seal on the egg, and it even risked its life to break out before the king did so.

One thing that pleasantly surprised Fei was the law of time inside this giant sealed egg; it was much faster compared to the outside world. Half a day passed inside the egg, but only less than an hour passed outside.

Although this giant sealed egg wasn’t suitable for humans to stay in, this difference in the speed of the flow of time fitted Fei’s criteria.

Fei brought Cain and Akara into this giant sealed egg that was full of thunder, lightning, wind, and rain.

After four days of research where the king was struck by lightning bolts every second, the two mad scientists finally grasped onto some key information regarding the laws of nature in this space. According to them, in about a month, they should be able to alter the speed of time in those three giant sealed eggs that were suitable for humans to live in, so time would pass faster in them compared to the outside world.

This was great news.

In the next few days, Fei spared some time and strengthened the seals on the rest of the 66 giant sealed eggs, just in case anything bad happened. Then, he ordered the military of Chambord to teleport soldiers into the Capital of Anji using the super long-range magic teleportation arrays, treating this city which was surrounded by undead creatures such as zombies and mutated demon beasts as the practice battlefield for the troops of Chambord.

At the same time, some military departments and weaponry manufacturing plants that were of less importance were slowly moved to the Capital of Anji, creating a temporary second arsenal of Chambord.

Of course, the most crucial things were those 5,000 sets of mystical gold armor.

In these three months, the elemental runes were engraved onto the inside of the mystical gold armor after the craftsmen and university students worked overtime. Next, the most critical step was the linking of magic arrays and the activation of the runes. It required Cain and Akara to do it personally.

This was a complicated task, and it required a ton of time. The good thing was the alteration of the speed of time inside the three giant sealed eggs were soon going to be finished. Once Chambord was able to work on these war machines inside such spaces, everything could be completed in less than three months.

This was an urgent matter that concerned Chambord’s chance of survival in the Chaos Era.

Therefore, Fei had to suppress his curiosity of going to the Southern Region of Azeroth to check out the goblins, and he temporarily stayed behind in the Northern Region, coming and going between Chambord City and the Capital of Anji. The good thing was that with Fei’s current strength and the super long-distance magic teleportation arrays, not much time was wasted on the road.

In the blink of an eye, another month passed.

Fei’s Amazon character was now at Nightmare Mode level 99; he only had to complete Hell Mode.

At the same time, Fei killed many zombies and monsters in the real world. These dark creatures’ speed of evolution was stunning! In less than a year, more than 100 zombie emperors appeared. Fortunately, Fei was able to kill the powerful monsters periodically so that even more powerful creatures wouldn’t appear.

However, as Fei killed many monsters, the zombies ate each other to evolve, and no more monsters appeared since Fei isolated the monsters away from humans, the number of these dark creatures of Hell drastically reduced. Right now, there were less than one million of them, which was less than ten percent of their prime.

Of course, Fei got a lot of benefits from the killing.

The king’s Barbarian character and Paladin character both surpassed the mid-tier Demi-God Realm and reached peak Demi-God Realm. If he could achieve another breakthrough, he would be in the True God Realm. By then, he could live for tens of thousands of years, and he could appear anywhere in the world and do anything he wanted. After all, he would be a real god.

However, there was only one uncertainty. From the information that Fei gathered so far, if he wanted to become a real god, only increasing his power further wouldn’t help much. A challenging process had to take place, and it was the condensation of divinity!

This was a step that many cultivation geniuses couldn’t surpass, and many demi-gods died before this threshold. There was one key reason – no one knew how to condense divinity.

At least on the Azeroth Continent, no one knew this process. This secret technique was long lost after the gods and demons died off in the Mythical Era.

Except for Fei’s Barbarian character and Paladin character who were demi-gods, and the Amazon character who was still leveling up, the rest all stayed at Hell Mode level 100, which was equivalent to peak Burning Sun Class.

Right now, Fei had no plans of increasing their strengths to the Demi-God Realm. After all, the zombies were almost all killed off, and the mystical energy wasn’t endless. Fei had to make sure that his Barbarian character and Paladin character had dominant combat strengths.

During this period, the situation on the continent got even more complicated.

In the Southern Region of Azeroth where all humans were paying attention to, the Human Alliance and the Goblin Clan had several clashes and battles involving millions of soldiers, and both sides had some wins and losses. The situation was in a heated stalemate.

During the war, humans captured quite a lot of goblins, and they learned from the captives that the goblins came from a space called the Goblin Realm.

In the last thousands of years, the goblins stayed there and rested, creating a giant civilization.

However, as time passed, the Goblin Realm, which was artificially created, was reaching the end of its lifespan. Therefore, this powerful race in the Mythical Era had to return to the Azeroth Continent.

This answer was in line with Fei and Akinfeev’s estimates.

Clearly, it was a terrible answer.

It meant that war was unavoidable!

Goblins were fighting for the continuation of their race and survival.

On the other hand, humans, a race that was arrogant and used to dominating the Azeroth Continent, were fighting for their absolute control over the land.
