Hail the King

Chapter 929: Hope on the Land (Part One)

“The power of the Paladin sure increased a bit; it is about one-fifth the experience points of that in Hell Mode. Of course, I did kill a lot of monsters. This is because these dark creatures are still too weak…”

“Eh, overall, it is not bad. At least it proves that this method of increasing strength is safe and doesn’t have any side effects. If this speed can be maintained, my hope of advancing to the next realm won’t be a dream anymore. In about three days, my Paladin character will break through the peak Burning Sun Realm and step into the Demi-God Realm.

“After my Paladin becomes a demi-god, I will switch back to my Barbarian character!”

“After all, the Paladin’s individual combat strength, especially damage, is lacking. When I’m facing a powerful master, the Paladin can’t be as dominating as the Barbarian. Besides, I’m more used to the combat style of the Barbarian; I have been using this character for more than a year now.”

“Why do I feel like this scene is too similar to leveling-up in Diablo World? Am I hallucinating? Are there any connections between the real world and Diablo World? If there are, what are the connections?”

After summarizing the gains from the battle, Fei’s mind wandered to somewhere else.

The red campfire burned in the darkness and created a series of cracking noises. This fire brought a trace of light and vitality to this continent that was currently covered by darkness.

Fei thought for a long time but got nothing out of it. Therefore, he set up a defensive array around the campfire and entered Diablo World, starting to level up his Necromancer character.

At the same time, two giant Xuan’ge silently floated tens of thousands of meters in the sky. Like two eyes of a god, they monitored this land that was engulfed by darkness.

Time quickly passed by.

The night was soon over, and the lonely and cold sunlight seemed unwilling to come back to this land that was devoured by darkness.

After training his spirit energy, Fei controlled the water elements and condensed rain habitually, taking a cold shower and relaxing for a bit. After having a casual breakfast, Fei stretched his back and started to kill monsters and ‘level-up’ in the real world.

A series of loud noises sounded from the surroundings.

This hill was already surrounded by a big herd of zombies and mutated demon beasts. They looked like a massive black flood. Since these creatures had low intelligence, they couldn’t sense the threat in the area, and they only had their basic instinct. Since last night, they smelled the odor of living beings, and they packed the field, not leaving out any paths to escape. If it weren’t for the defensive array that blocked the way, they would have charged up and started biting Fei.

“Hahaha! My luck is great! So many ‘experience points’ came to me so early in the morning.”

Fei laughed and snapped his fingers, and the defensive magic array that covered the area instantly lost its effect.

“Roar! Roar!”

“Hu! Roar!”

Without the barrier, the zombies and mutated demon beasts instantly rushed toward Fei like the water pouring out of a dam. The sharp nails and pointy teeth reflected chilling lights under the morning sunshine, and even the ground started to shake and whine under the steps of these monsters.

“Ah, what a beautiful morning. Sweethearts, thank you for gifting me so many experience points so early!”

As soon as Fei said that, he pressed his hands together in front of his chest. Like a saint who was mourning over the tragedy in the world, a faint flame started to burn on him. Then, this flame grew bigger, and more holy energy radiated from it.

Boom! When the nails of the monsters were about to scratch Fei’s body, golden holy flames instantly engulfed the entire area.

In the next moment, the monsters that were enough to scare people away whined and turned into streaks of green smoke. Like paper that was being devoured by flames, these dark creatures of Hell were killed, and streaks of mystical energy flowed out of their corpses like a transparent vapor, continuing to appear and permeate the air.

Fei exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and then deeply inhaled.

All the mystical energy dashed toward his body like birds going back to their nests.

In about four minutes, all the dark energy of Hell within a ten-kilometer radius was purified, and the ground finally restored its former color. The greyish-yellow dry grass finally started to turn green, and the breeze blew by, carrying a sense of freshness instead of the gloomy and suffocating pressure.

Fei finally finished absorbing the mystical energy in the air and completely merged it with his own power. While sensing the growth in his strength, he lightly breathed out and was about to do something.

Suddenly, he waved his hand and shot out a Charged Bolt.

“Eh? Who is it? Come out!” The Charged Bolt dashed toward a location behind him.

At this moment, Fei suddenly felt like something was monitoring him in the dark.

Boom!

The ground cracked, and dust flew into the air while rocks and stones collapsed.

However, nothing strange happened after that.

Fei frowned and thought about something.

After a quick pause, he took a big step forward, and the golden flames flashed. Then, he appeared about one kilometer away.

After absorbing a lot of mystical energy, the strength of the Paladin increased. Fei finally vaguely sensed the pleasurable feeling of being able to advance and ascend. The laws of nature turned from a mushy, freehand abstract painting to a clear photo. The gate that was connected to the path to the Demi-God Realm in his heart slowly opened, revealing a thin slit!

This was the sign of advancing to the Demi-God Realm.

“My guess is correct! Although I don’t know how this type of mystical energy appeared, and why I am the only person who can sense and absorb this type of energy, my strength will continuously increase if I continue absorbing!”

Fei turned into a god whose mission was to eliminate evil, walking on the land that was engulfed by darkness and occupied by monsters. Wherever he went, the bloody crimes were exterminated, and light and brightness reappeared.

Human lives were extremely tough and persistent.

Although the southern region of Alania fell into the hands of zombies and mutated demon beasts, there were still people who were surviving despite the struggles. They waited and hoped for the brightness to reappear, holding on for dear life. Like cockroaches, these survivors were protecting the dignity of human beings with their insignificant lives

When Fei purified the evil energy, these people were all saved, and they were the ones who treated Fei like a god and worshipped him. In addition, they promoted and spread Fei’s stories around the region.

In a little while, the entire Northern Region of Azeroth learned that King Alexander of Chambord, who was also known as the Human Emperor of the North, was using his unparalleled strength to walk on the land that was stained by the power of evil. Like a god, he eliminated evil and calmed those souls who were controlled by evil, helping them escape tragedy and rest in peace. This man single-handedly saved the Northern Region of Azeroth and brought light back to the land.

Fei’s reputation was slowly increasing.
