Hail the King

Chapter 976: The Chase in the Endless Sea of Forests (Part One)

The people who reacted first were the elite scouts of Chambord who insisted on standing on the high ground and being on the lookout.

In several flashes, they jumped to the top of a few trees and looked into the distance.

Right now, a large flock of birds flew into the sky as if they were startled by something, and the roars of demon beasts sounded anxious and tragic. The branches on the trees all swayed around like waves.

One of the scouts observed for a few seconds and jumped down before whispering something into Fei’s ear.

Blacky, who was napping on the beach, looked up and let out a series of muffled roars as a vicious light appeared in its eyes.

Thug, Chick, and Hooligan who were still playing in the lake and splashing water fluttered their wings and flew out. These three beasts who had already lost the honor of dragons got to Blacky’s side and had their guard up.

Fei slightly frowned.

Four impressive auras appeared in the depths of the Endless Sea of Forests, and they were fast approaching the lake. These four auras were all vast and powerful, but they all felt very different. However, one thing was the same, which was that they were all filled with intense murderous spirit. Wherever they went, the demon beasts that resided in the area instinctively sensed danger and fled their territories.

“Come back,” Fei ordered the scouts to pull back.

Ordinary Star-Level Warriors couldn’t deal with the level of force that appeared in the depths of the Endless Sea of Forests.

“Roar!”

Suddenly, the mountain-like Blacky stood up and roared like the emperor of demon beasts, and its roar resonated and echoed in the sky, quickly rushed to the surroundings as if it had issued an order.

In the next moment, a series of roars sounded as if demon beasts were responding to Blacky.

Suddenly, everyone sensed a mystical sensation. It seemed like the demon beasts who were chaotic and whining in fear suddenly found their backbone after hearing Blacky’s roar, and they overcame the fear in their minds. Like a defeated troop that suddenly ran into reinforcements, the demon beasts roared in sequence, and all of them, big and small, changed the direction of their escape and rushed toward the lake in order.

Fei looked at Blacky in surprise.

“Since when did this big guy get so dashing?”

In the blink of an eye, many demon beasts ran out of the forest and appeared by the edge of the lake at different speeds. Gradually, the entire lake was surrounded as there were at least 10,000 of them.

Amongst the demon beasts, there were demonic bears, wild wolves, porcupines, wild pythons, long-armed apes, wind rabbits…

It looked like an exhibition of all types of demon beasts. Their strengths were different, but most of them were below Moon-Class.

This large group of demon beasts laid on the ground, and then they looked up at the sky while roaring in the direction of Blacky and the three dragons. It seemed like they were civilians who were bowing at their emperor. They looked to be tamed and didn’t attack Fei and others, appearing smart and human-like.

Except for humans, only the Treasure-Seeking Beast, Little Raccoon, ignored Blacky and the three dragons’ auras and dominating presences. Little Raccoon stood on Fei’s shoulder and squeaked, looking very displeased as these beasts only paid respect to Blacky and the dragons while ignoring it, a noble amongst demon beasts.

At this moment, Blacky looked like the emperor of all animals, majestic and unshakeable.

The three dragons looked like the generals under the emperor and protected the emperor while looking down at their subjects.

Fei suddenly felt like he had underestimated the abilities of these four giant foodies.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of powerful explosions sounded from afar, and streaks of fire dashed down from the sky and looked like meteors. The terrifying energy surges approached the edge of the lake, and it was clear that masters were fighting to the death. From the strength of the four auras, Fei knew that three masters were attacking one.

As the fierce battle continued, these four auras were getting closer to the lake at a slower speed.

However, the approach of these four terrifying energy surges made all the demon beasts in the area roar instinctively.

A series of angry roars shot out of Blacky’s mouth as it stared at the four auras further away while a fierce light flashed in its eyes.

Fei instantly understood Blacky’s intention. This guy clearly treated this region in the Endless Sea of Forests as its own territory, and the demon beasts that lived here were his subjects. While those four masters battled along the way, many mountains and forests were destroyed. Most importantly, many demon beasts were killed by the residual energy from the battle. As a result, Blacky was displeased and held intense hostility toward these people.

Fei waved his hand.

Blacky understood the king’s intention, and it lowered its head and let out a series of crisp roars.

All the demon beasts around the lake started to move toward the south of the lake. When tens of thousands of demon beasts moved together, it was a stunning scene as it looked like a dam was open, releasing a ton of pent-up water. Even the ground lightly shook under the paws and feet of the demon beasts.

In about ten minutes, all these demon beasts moved past the lake and got about 1,000 meters to the south of it.

Further away in the north, demon beasts continued to flee and joined the group to the south of the lake.

At this moment, those four figures in the heated battle finally appeared in everyone’s sight.

Just as Fei detected, three masters were chasing after one person. The battle was fierce and tragic, and many black cracks were created in the sky before disappearing the next second.

The person in the front was engulfed in purple heavenly flames. He was mighty as he battled while fleeing. As the three opponents on his level attacked him, it seemed like he was going to die every time, but he could always dodge by a fraction of an inch and survive.

“Huh? People of the Holy Church?”

Right now, everyone could see that the three people chasing after this man were enveloped in ocean-like silver holy power, which only belonged to the masters of the Holy Church. Like three bright suns, these three chased and seemed to want to turn the person in purple heavenly flames into thousands of pieces.

At the most conservative estimate, these four were all peak Burning-Sun Lords, and a casual strike could wipe out mountains. While the fire energy and holy power collided, the terrifying energy waves dispersed into the area. Trees were burned, ice was melted, and a trail that was more than ten kilometers wide was created on the ground.

Looking down from the sky, the giant black trail on the ground was shocking, and it seemed like the ground was torn apart as fires burned on the path.

Boom!

The person fleeing finally wasn’t able to dodge one attack and got struck by the [Spear of Judgment]. Like a meteor, he fell toward Fei and others from the sky.
