Hail the King

Chapter 517: Return of the King (Part One)

The burning flames released an insane amount of energy, and all the rocks in the area were burned soft and were almost turning into lava. Black smoke was rushing into the sky, and the thick sulfur smell dispersed into the area. It looked like a scene from h.e.l.l.

This was what the Mayor’s Mansion looked like now.

The main palace was struck by Moon-Cla.s.s Combat Technique [Fire Explosion] several times, and a sudden mysterious explosion completely obliterated it. In addition, the side palaces near the main palace were also destroyed. Broken walls and chipped tiles were everywhere, and the warriors of Chambord saw some torn white dresses, broken limbs, and dried up blood spots.

The atmosphere was so dense that the air almost froze.

All of the masters of Chambord were knocked more than 20 meters away, and they were staring at the tragedy in front of them.

Tony used his Moon-Cla.s.s Combat Technique multiple times, got hit by the energy waves, and was injured by the mysterious power hidden inside the attacks of the warriors of Chambord, and his Warrior Energy couldn’t flow appropriately inside his body. As a result, he couldn’t leave right away.

On the other hand, the warriors of Chambord were affected by the explosions as well. They were injured to various degrees, but most of them were still a distance away from the main palace and weren’t injured too much.

Lampard and Torres who were closest to the main palace were affected the most. Fortunately, Lampard was the strongest warrior among everyone, and he was able to protect the vital spots on his body with his Lightning-elemental Warrior Energy. Although he got blew away, he wasn’t too injured. Torres who was standing on the roof of the main palace leaped into the air using his wind-elemental Warrior Energy as the explosion occurred, and he was able to safely land outside the explosion zone by stepping on the rocks that flew toward him from the explosion.

At the moment, the warriors of Chambord looked at the h.e.l.l-like scene in front of them and felt a chill in their spines.

”Queen Angela and Valkyrie Elena…… They……” they thought.

”Kill him! Kill him to avenge for the queen……” Oleg, who was quite injured and was covered in blood, shouted. His eye turned red, and he rushed toward Tony. Since Tony wasn’t able to adjust his state yet, this low-tier New Moon Elite was seized by Oleg. As Oleg started to squeeze Tony’s neck using his arms, it was clear that he was planning to choke this enemy to death.

Tony puked up a mouthful of blood, and his vision darkened. Several of his rib bones got broken, and he was dying due to the choke. He struggled like a madman and struck at Oleg’s arms forcefully, shouting, ”Ah! So much pain! F*ck off! You bug! Do you want to die? Ah!”

Tony was a Moon-Cla.s.s Elite after all, and he easily smashed Oleg’s arm bones into pieces.

”Let’s die together! You killed Her Highness! You killed Queen Angela! You killed my chance of behaving like a good person! Ah!” Oleg’s face paled, and his arm bones were now smashed into small pieces. Layers of broken muscles and tendons were connecting his arms. However, as if he couldn’t sense the pain, his arms were still glued together, choking Tony down.

Warden Oleg was in a frenzied state.

He was once the henchman of the former Head Minister of Chambord, Bazzer. He had done many evil deeds, and many people asked Fei to execute him after the city was liberated. However, the King didn’t do that. Instead, Fei gave Oleg the opportunities to redeem himself. In the beginning, Oleg was trying to put on a good performance so that he won’t die. But as he did more work, the people started to look at him differently. The initial disdain turned into appreciation, and the hatred turned into friendliness. For the first time, Oleg got an unprecedented sense of achievement, and he felt the honor of being a good person.

Oleg swore that he was going to maintain and keep up this honor, and he promised himself that he would become of the key a.s.sistant of the King such as Pierce, Drogba, Torres, and Cech.

His dark past made him feel a little inferior, but it also gave him a lot of motivation.

He was willing to sacrifice everything for the King, including his life.

But now, this d.a.m.ning enemy in front of him destroyed Oleg’s honor by killing the two girls inside the main palace.

Oleg knew how important those two girls were to King Alexander. According to the traditions on the Azeroth Continent, he lost all of his dignity and honor since he wasn’t able to protect Angela and Elena as Fei’s subordinate. In his eyes, losing the honor was equivalent to losing everything else in his life, including his ident.i.ty as a good person.

Therefore, he was going to kill this murderer even if he would die himself.

Chapter 517: Return of the King (Part Two)

”Come on! Kill him! Don’t worry about me……” Oleg shouted.

Everyone including the weakest Bronze Saints roared like wild beasts and charged at Tony with craziness in their eyes.

The fearlessness of the warriors of Chambord terrified Tony. At this moment, he felt like the bugs that he could easily kill before were now invincible!

Tony started to regret. He regretted not listening to his master’s advice on avoiding the King of Chambord, and he even regretted coming down Big Snow Mountain. It would be great if he never met the King of Chambord and could still be the influential figure on Big Snow Mountain.

Whoosh!

A dash of red light appeared in the sky, and it was approaching with insane heat waves around it.

It was [Snow Mountain Hermit]!

”Master…… Master! I’m here! Please save me!” Tony was scared by how ferocious these warriors of Chambord were. Since he was a low-tier New Moon Elite, he could easily get out of the current situation. However, just like how a flower grown in a greenhouse couldn’t withstand the chilliness of the outside world, Tony was so scared that he felt weak and couldn’t react properly to his surroundings.

Boom!

[Snow Mountain Hermit] struck downward with his palms.

The indefensible heat wave instantly knocked all of the warriors of Chambord aside.

This man in red wasn’t a fake Moon-Cla.s.s Elite like Tony. He was an experienced warrior, and he easily pushed the warriors of Chambord away and saved Tony.

Fortunately, Warden Oleg was only knocked out and not killed. [Snow Mountain Hermit] didn’t want to escalate the conflict with the King of Chambord. Otherwise, he could have easily wiped out everyone in the area with one strike.

[Snow Mountain Hermit] instantly appeared in the yard and grabbed onto Tony’s shoulder.

”Why did you come here? Do you want to die?” he shouted as he was about to get away from this place instantly.

”Where do you think you are going?” a child-like voice sounded in the sky, and it was filled with anger.

[Snow Mountain Hermit] was shocked, and he looked up and saw a blond boy with a strange black mask on his face. As this boy stood in mid-air, cold lights shot out of his cute eyes. At the moment, his eyes turned 100% black, and they were like two abysses that could suck people’s souls into them. Also, as a grey energy flowed around him, he seemed a little majestic.

”It’s you! Aren’t you already in the [Elemental Gate] with the King of Chambord? Why are you here?” [Snow Mountain Hermit] was shocked. He swore that he saw this boy go into the [Elemental Gate], but why was he here now?

”Could it be that the King of Chambord is already back?” he was concerned.

”It is me, and you two would need to stay here and endure Alexander’s anger!” as Arthur’s voice sounded in the sky, he already appeared behind this man in red.

Bam!

[Snow Mountain Hermit] was shocked, and he was half a second slower. He could only try to match up against his opponent’s strike with his hand, but he instantly sensed a suction force. Then, a strange yet chilly energy rushed into his body and froze his fire-elemental Warrior Energy.

”This…… Undead Energy? You……” [Snow Mountain Hermit] was shocked. When he looked down, it wasn’t a child’s pink hand but a bone dragon’s claws! There was a black and metal glare on it, and it looked terrifying.

”You realized too late!” in order to instantly defeat this not-so-weak opponent, Arthur revealed his Undead Bone Claws despite the risk of getting discovered, and a thick Undead Energy immediately rushed into [Snow Mountain Hermit]’s body. He was not prepared for this, and he was still injured. Therefore, he got his energy channels instantly concealed by his opponent.

Arthur then quickly moved around and smacked [Snow Mountain Hermit]’s and Tony’s back, and both of them puked up a mouthful of blood before losing their consciousnesses.

Tink!

Two G.o.d-Fooling Badges were placed on them.

Since Undead Energy entered their bodies, the people of the Holy Church might sense it. The G.o.d-Fooling Badges could block the Undead Energy on them and would save a lot of trouble.

Arthur didn’t kill them; he wanted to wait for Fei’s return.

”Go check in the fire. Her Highness might be still alive……” Lampard who was severely injured shouted. After seeing the sudden appearance of this boy and how he defeated the enemies, Lampard guessed that he was on their side. Only masters could see through the fire, so Lampard wanted Arthur to see if the girls were still alive.

”No need. I will do it myself,” a loud and angry voice sounded from afar. As a silver light flashed by, someone appeared in from of them. After the two people in his hands were put on the ground, he dashed into the flames.

It was King Alexander of Chambord.
