Hail the King

Chapter 1033: Altar and Danger (Part Three)

Fei reacted first, and he shouted as he switched to his Druid character. Then, he waved his hand repeatedly and summoned more than a dozen black ravens and white wolves to distract the giant, human-shaped fierce beasts, and he dashed toward the altar himself.

In the meantime, Fei used [Werewolf] and turned into a werewolf himself. Like a flash of lightning, he dashed toward the altar without stopping.

This time, the wolf-men in the group were stunned.

The orc masters thought, “This human king knows many secret techniques. He knows the technique of Bear Clan and Wolf Clan; he knows the Atavistic Transformation of two clans, and he can summon bears, wolves, and ravens. Isn’t he the same as the legendary Beast God Rexxar? Even if others want to mimic these abilities, they can’t!”

“Could it be that the great Beast God Rexxar reincarnated as a human?”

Soon, the roaring, high-level, human-shaped fierce beasts already got close, and the orc masters had to concentrate on the battle in front of them.

This battle lasted for an entire 30 minutes.

“This is all that I know.” Fei returned to the team and said slowly, “The magic array on the altar is a spatial-type, but it is only one-directional. There is no way that the teleportation can work backward and allow us to see what world is behind the portal. The good thing is that before the altar self-detonated, I copied down all the magic paths and engravings. With enough time, I’m sure that I can figure out a reverse teleportation array. Perhaps then, we can figure out the mystery of the origin of the fierce beasts and the secret behind the [Metal Desert]’s expansion.”

“It is fortunate that Your Majesty reacted fast. We will have to trouble you further,” Entus said politely. He and the orcs didn’t understand magic engravings, so the mission of decoding the magic arrays on the altar had to be completed by their ally from Chambord.

“Your Holiness, you are being too formal,” Fei replied modestly.

At least on the surface, no one could tell that these two travelers from Earth were on the same boat.

Entus thought for a moment and said, “Our goal of coming to the [Metal Desert] is somewhat reached. The only thing is that we couldn’t find the mysterious force that is controlling the fierce beasts. The good thing is that we now know the secret behind the creation of these red altars and the expansion of the desert. We can go back and figure out the strategies to deal with this. However, since we are already at the edge of the Vicious Swamp, we should go and take a look. I hope that nothing bad is happening there.”

Everyone was listening to Entus intently. But when they heard the last sentence, they all shivered and thought, “Damn, Entus His Holiness said this already. I guess the probability of nothing bad happening in the Vicious Swamp is zero, right?”

“Let’s rest for a bit. We are about 100 kilometers away from the Vicious Swamp. We will start moving again in ten minutes.”

Fei took out delicious food and drinks from his storage ring and distributed them to everyone.

“No! We can’t hold it! Your Highness, please order the retreat!”

While shouts and battling noises resonated in the air, Old Aryang looked at the troops of Barcelona that swarmed up like a flood and sighed.

Second Prince Dominguez’s eyes were all red, and he tightly held onto the handle of his sword. In the end, he didn’t draw it out, and he roared at the sky, “This is unfortunate! We failed at the last moment. I’m surprised that Barcelonans even sent their Flying Beast Air Force to this location. Their advancement speed is too fast! Is this the true strength of a level 9 empire?”
