Chapter 85: God's Favorite Children

The scene of Luciano kneeling down and begging for his life shocked the residents of Chambord.

The crowd on both sides of the street felt like they were having a bizarre dream. What a horrifying noun, and what a supreme monster the Holy Church was. Even the life of the Holy Church's guard dog was more precious than a noble from a kingdom. Now however, the arrogant Holy Knight Mr. Luciano was shivering, kneeling and begging King Alexander for forgiveness... what was going on?

While the residents were confused, something crazier occurred –

The evil and vicious [Two Legged Rattlesnake] Priest Zola panicked as he crouched down and crawled towards Fei. With a humble attitude the people of Chambord had never seen before, he kissed Fei's boots passionately and said in a shaky voice, "Honorable Master, humble Zola begs for your generous forgiveness... We didn't know of your honorable identity in advance. We are truly guilty. Please forgive us two lowly wretches!"

Hundreds of cavaliers' retinues and novice priests were shocked. They looked at each other in unison as their bosses suddenly lost all their pride and prestige and kneeled down begging for forgiveness. After a few seconds of hesitation, they all copied Zola and Luciano's action and knelt down as well; they didn't even dare to breathe too heavily.

Although these people were at the bottom of the Holy Church's hierarchy and the majority of them didn't know what the golden [Battle Ring] that appeared on the young king meant, they had followed and served Zola and Luciano for a while. They all had high EQs and were good at observing situations. From their two bosses' expressions, they at the very least knew that they had kicked on an iron plate and messed with someone that they shouldn't have messed with.

"Please forgive us, master!" Hundreds of people knelt down and begged.

"Master? Ha, tell me, who's master am I?"

Fei said to the Holy Church crowd with a faint smile on his face.

"Master....you...Oh, right right right, you aren't...Ah, no, I mean...I...I...I..."

Despite Zola having the brains to come up with thousands of conspiracies, at this key point, he was stuttering and couldn't put a sentence together.

He had only heard of the Holy Knights who had a golden [Battle Ring] in legends and tales, let alone a Holy knight that had a double golden [Battle Rings]. He had the chance to go to a Church's party at St. Petersburg for senior priests and overheard Sergievsky, the Bishop for Zenit Empire mention stories about these [God's Favorite Children] who had golden [Battle Rings] – These [God's Favorite Children] were all secret characters that most people didn't know about. Before they were formally appointed to powerful positions at the Holy Church, they would be appointed by the Pope to execute some secret missions or go on unknown journeys to gain more experience. Their identities were all hidden, and their statuses were highly respected by everyone at the Holy Church. They had enormous opportunities to become candidates for the position of Pope; the most incompetent ones would become Bishops for the huge empires and take control of the church in a region. The future and potential of Zola who was only a representative for the church in a small level 6 affiliated kingdom that belonged to a level 1 empire couldn't even be compared with these people, so how could Zola not be scared?

Zola felt like he was in a freezer; he could feel the chill in his bones. He didn't expect to meet someone on that level and leave a bad first impression. He wanted to flatter Fei a little bit to make up for what he had done, but once he thought that Fei might be executing some kind of secret mission under the Pope's instruction, he didn't dare to call out Fei's "True Identity"... "Damn it! Should I address Alexander by 'master' or pretend that I don't know him?"

Zola had lost his cool.

Fei on the other hand had roughly guessed what was happening after seeing all the church people kneeling down and shivering. The reason he switched from his Level 20 Barbarian Mode to the Level 12 Paladin Mode was because he wanted to cheat a little with the Paladin's Aura, but he didn't expect it to have such a significant effect.

"You, stand up and apologize to the woman you injured."

Fei was afraid that saying anymore might raise suspicion. He pretended to be mysterious and change the conversation back to the previous topic. He pointed at the Knight Luciano and said coldly.

"Yes, yes, yes..."

Luciano felt relieved after he heard that.

He and Zola passionately crawled and rushed to the woman who was waking up as if she was their mother. Luciano helped the woman sit up and Zola, who wanted to cleanse the impression Fei had of him used everything he had and was barely able to cast a high level spell that required a ton of mental effort [Heal]. A milky white light bloomed in his hand and shrouded the whip wounds on the woman's back. After the miraculous effect appeared, the horrifying wounds soon disappeared under the illumination of the white light.

Fei's pupil slightly contracted after seeing that.

Holy Church's holy [Healing] spell had similar effects compared to [Healing Potions]from the Diablo World, but it had its own mystical and unique sides. It looked like the Holy Church had an unfathomable foundation and background which allowed it to be the monster and dominate the Azeroth Continent.

"You were brave enough to try to harm Angela. You deserve to be killed thousands of times!" Fei said in a bloody tone as he stared at Zola coldly.

"Forgive me, your majesty, please forgive me. I was being really dumb, I won't do it ever again..." After hearing Fei bringing that up, Zola kneeled in front of Fei's feet again as he trembled. He started to snivel and begged, "Your majesty, I know my mistake. From now on, Zola will always fulfill your orders and listen to whatever you say!"

This poisonous snake was scared to death.

Fei backed off a few steps in disgust. He knew that at this point, neither his own personal power or Chambord's strength could challenge the huge Holy Church; the difference in strength between the two was gigantic, like comparing a speck of dust to the sun. Therefore, he couldn't be too impulsive. He had handled most of the problems, so he decided to take care of the remaining accounts with the two bums in the future. He waved his hand and said, "Nevermind, I won't hold you guys accountable anymore on the fact that this was your first time. However, be careful how you behave in Chambord. If you dare offend or annoy me one more time, don't say that I'm ruthless."

"Ok,ok,ok!"

Zola was so relieved that he almost cried.

He was glad that this "Master" was magnanimous enough to forgive them. Just with Fei's status alone in the Holy Church, even if he ended up killing both of them, Bishop Sergievsky would say that they were guilty. As long as he could extinguish "this master's" anger, Zola was confident with his numerous methods to make "this powerful man" happy. "As long as I can tie myself together with this promising man...tut – tut." Zola was secretly laughing every time he thought of it. He definitely believed that this was a rare and golden opportunity that he should take advantage of it.

"Alright, I don't want to see you guys anymore. Send someone to take the injured people home and compensate them... Get away from me, now!" Fei waved his hand as if he was expelling some flies; his impatience was obvious.

"Alright, ok, ok..."

Zola and Luciano nodded obediently and turned around to order the retinues and novice priests, "You guys, quickly help these injured children of God get home... Oh, you guys are too rough, compensate every household with 10 gold coins... Oh, no, compensate them with 20 gold coins!"

After seeing that some injured people were slightly immobilized, Zola squinted his eyes and immediately ordered, "Use my carriage... Use my carriage to take them back, don't let them suffer any more pain."

The novice priests were shocked and stared at Zola in surprise. They thought that they had heard it wrong. Zola spent a lot of resources on picking up this carriage and he was reluctant to use it regularly. Was he going to use this magic carriage to take these dirty low class people home?

"What are you guys still standing here for? Go and do it, idiots!"

Zola shouted at the novice priests, and then turned around and asked, "Your majesty, what do you think? Are you satisfied?"

20 gold coins was the average annual income for a household in Chambord. Most of the injured residents were only lightly wounded by the retinues and novice priests. The only severely injured one was the woman who was whipped, but she was now fully recovered and also compensated 100 gold coins. Zola and Luciano miscalculated everything and were now disgraced, losing money.

Fei's inner rage dissipated a little at this point. He nodded and waved, "Alright, now get out of my sight!"

His attitude was extremely impatient.

Zola and Luciano didn't get mad at all. Instead, they felt like that was the proper manner that a [God's Favorite Child] should have. They nodded submissively, apologized again and left with the retinues and novice priests.

After seeing the vicious church personnel leave embarrassingly, Chambord's residents on both sides of the street felt like they had just woken up from a dream. The just and kind King Alexander protected them and surprised everyone again. Applause and cheers were as loud as thunder...

The beautiful Angela and Emma stood in the excited crowd. They stared at Fei with fascination and passion.

Lampard turned around and left quietly the loud cheers.

Fei on the other hand stared at the carriage fleet which was slowly moving away. When they were passing by Fei, he saw a handsome blonde young man who looked slightly sick through the window at the back of the magic carriage. The pair of crystal blue, ocean-like eyes gave Fei an indescribable strange feeling.

"Who is he?"

For some reason, Fei was suddenly full of curiosity towards that young man.

Chapter 86: Flowers and Feces

Of course, the reason why Fei was interested in that handsome, blonde young man wasn't because he was homosexual. In fact, his sexual orientation was very normal; he wasn't interested in men. The mysterious young man gave Fei a strange feeling. Sometimes, the young man felt powerful like the vigorous and vast sea, while other times he suddenly felt weak and fragile like a dry candle wick that was about to extinguish. It was very bizarre.

You could say that except for quelling and intimidating the two bad eggs Zola and Luciano, and somehow gaining "[God's Favorite Child]" status by using his Paladin mode in this conflict with the Holy Church, what gave Fei the most vivid impression was a glimpse of the blonde young man.

Fei was also sure that when the carriage passed by him, the mysterious young man was observing him closely as well.

The crowd on the street slowly dispersed.

Fei held Angela's and Emma's small hands and started walking home. He listened to the two pure and cute girls' chat about what had just happened and simply smiled. The golden light of the sunset shined on their bodies and dragged out three perfectly contoured and warm shadows of different heights.

"Alexander, why did those two call you master? When did you join the Holy Church?" Emma jumped around and asked curiously like a sparrow.

"I don't know, maybe they were dizzy and mistook me for someone else!" Fei gave Emma a perfunctory answer.

"Mistaken? Impossible...Huh! If you don't want to tell me, then forget it!"

The girl got a little mad and wanted to pull her hand away from Fei's grip, but somehow, as if she couldn't give up the warm feeling from Fei's big hand, she hesitated a little and let Fei hold onto her hand obediently in the end. She pursed her lips "grumpily" and stared at Fei.

Fei smiled back and didn't say anything more.

He couldn't really explain himself, because those two bad eggs didn't make a mistake.

However, what Zola said alerted Fei.

He didn't expect that the Holy Church would know about the battle that occurred in Chambord and accurately identified that necromancy was used in the battle on the stone bridge. It revealed a lot of information.

First of all, Fei could confirm that the power of Necromancer Mode was not allowed by the Holy Church in the real world. He had to be extra careful when he planned to use Necromancer Mode in the future. At least before having the power and strength that could take on the Holy Church alone, he couldn't leave any clues that might be traced back to him. This was a precaution so that he wouldn't be arrested by the crazy priests and be tied to a burning cross.

Next, he knew that the Holy Church had a terrifying intelligence system; they knew about the battle on the stone bridge and sent out orders in just a few days. The speed of collecting and transmitting information in this world was almost as fast as the internet and phones on Earth; they probably used a special channel or media that Fei didn't know about. From that, Fei could infer that the intelligence system of their mortal enemy – the Level 4 Eindhoven Empire was of no comparison to the Holy Church. But if they really wanted to find out what had happen to the black armoured troops, it probably wouldn't take long. As a result, the safety of Chambord would be under a big threat. If everything wasn't handled properly, the secret of the Mythical Ruins would also be leaked out...

Fei felt like his position as the king was very tragic. After he got to this world, he hadn't relaxed a single day and enjoyed time with the beauties. Instead, he was being a typical firefighter; he had to handle every problem as soon as they came up.

After they returned to the Palace, the servants had already prepared the dinner.

Nueey

Fei was not used to the culinary culture in this world – Except for fruits and roasted meat, there was only whole wheat bread and smelly milk. It was alright just for a few meals, giving it an exotic feeling. But once Fei had it for a while, he felt like throwing up every time he saw the same dishes over and over again.

But after seeing Angela and Emma enjoy the food, Fei could only pinch his nose and sit farther away as he started biting on an apple innocently.

"Looks like it's necessary to transform the culinary styles at Chambord. At the very least, I have to hire a few talented chefs and train them well. They probably can't make food like KFC or McDonalds Burgers. I don't know the recipes, and even if I did, I probably couldn't find the ingredients on Azeroth Continent. However, they could at least make food like hotpot, Kung Pao chicken, crepes and French toast."

As Fei was thinking to himself, Angela and Emma on the other side of the table had already happily changed into the Pirates of Caribbean styled dress that Fei designed earlier. The "clothing reformation" was obviously having success; it motivated Fei and boosted his confidence; he was already planning how to set off a "diet storm".

"Angela, what do you think of these new dresses?" Fei asked with a smile as he bit into the apple.

The future queen was wiping the grease off of her alluring pink plump lips with a white napkin. After hearing Fei's question, a joyful expression appeared on her face. She giggled, "It's amazing! Did you know, now all of the girls in the kingdom feel that wearing the set of dresses that King Alexander designed is an honour. Great tailors such as Aunt Eliza have been super busy; some noble ladies had pre-ordered dozens of sets of dresses a few days ago. Even the silk and cloth merchants in the kingdom have made a fortune; all of them are now out of stock... Alexander, do you know what the residents are calling these new dresses?"

"What are they calling it?"

"[King Alexander's Wisdom]!" Emma who was struggling to take in a piece of roasted meat replied in a rush, "People named these dresses as [King Alexander's Wisdom]. Even Viscountess Louise who had been to St. Petersburg, the capital of Zenit Empire claimed that the noble ladies in the Imperial Capital had never worn something so delicate and beautiful."

Fei blushed; it was a rare sight to behold.

He didn't expect that the designs he pretty much plagiarized from the Pirates of Caribbean would create such a buzz. "Should I plagiarize the rest of the battle uniforms of the female pirates?" At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed through his head, but he couldn't get a clear grip of it. Fei shook his head and suddenly winked at Angela with a "you know what I'm talking about" expression on his face, "Eh...oh yeah, Angela, hehe, that...the last set of clothing that I designed...Eh, is that set popular as well?"

Angela's face instantly got red.

But the girl didn't run away like last time. She pretended to be calm and sat still as she said, "The piece that you named [Boobs Armour] was even more popular than those dresses. Aunt Eliza had modified it a little bit and made them in different colors and styles. It has been secretly spreading to all the women in the kingdom."

When the girls were speaking, she tried to not to look as uneasy and act calm and collected... However, her hands had twisted the edge of her dress into a ball of ragged cloth under the dinner table. Her heart was also pumping and beating quietly. All she wanted was to have the calm and cool demeanor of a future queen just like those noble ladies in the kingdom.

Fei's recent miraculous performances didn't just give courtiers such as Brook a lot of pressure; it also made the smart and beautiful future queen feel like there was an invisible gap that was enlarging between her and Fei. She was quietly putting in effort to make herself worthy enough to be the partner of the great King Alexander.

When Alexander was still a retard, many people felt sorry and pity for Angela who was like a peerless lotus flower that was about to be placed in a pile of dog sh*t. But now, their roles were slowly switching.

The King Alexander now didn't only become normal. He was also becoming stronger and more powerful at an unimaginable rate. In less than a month, he had surpassed the former number one warrior at Chambord, Frank-Lampard, and became the undisputed number one warrior, securing the throne and winning over the admiration and respect of everyone in Chambord.

What about Angela?

She felt like she was still the same girl: kind, pure, innocent, a little weak, and a little clumsy. Except for when dealing with trivial matters, the girl felt like she slowly couldn't keep up with the pace of this man. She could no longer take care and protect him like before. Just like a fine umbrella, you could shield the rain in a rainy day, but you no longer needed it when the sun came up.

Therefore, Angela was working hard to change herself all this time.

Today, when the novice priests from the Holy Church pulled out and arrested the innocent residents from the crowd and accused them of colluding with evil undead mages, Angela was scared and shivering when she stood up and refuted Zola. She didn't even know why she stood up. Even though she was the future queen of Chambord, but she was no different than a regular civilian in the eyes of the huge Holy Church. With a single word from the [Two legged rattlesnake], she could be sent onto a burning cross... However, when she thought that Alexander would stand up without hesitation to protect his people at a time like that, Angela somehow stood up and clearly and logically expressed her opinion as she suppressed the fear in her heart – Unfortunately, what made Angela dismayed was that her effort didn't help the situation out. If Lampard and Alexander didn't arrive on time, the situation probably would have worsened...

Chapter 87: Magic Crystals and Mysterious Man

"I don't deserve him, I need to become better... become better!"

This idea grew and spread wildly in Angela's mind like a virus.

Fei was the only thing that was on the girl's mind. She didn't know when she became like this, and she didn't want to know ... She just wanted to become better. With this mentality, she had a sense of inferiority every time she faced Fei.

Unfortunately, Fei didn't know how Angela was feeling; although he thought he was an expert in love.

The dinner was still continuing.

"Oh, right. Alexander, Princess Tanasha also pre-order a few set of the dresses that you designed...En, she also picked out a few [Booby Armor]..." Angela didn't know what "booby" meant, she only felt that this word was cute. She thought of something and told Fei calmly.

Fei instantly blasted the food out of his mouth.

"God, Lord, Budda... Could you imagine a pure, fairy like girl saying the word "booby" in front of you decently? What a bastard, Fei could help but to peeked at one of Angela's body parts.

"Oh? Really? What colors did she chose?" Fei asked as he pretended to calm.

"Red... Oh, and rose." Emma on the other side of the table was finally done eating. This girl who had been loved by Angela and Fei as a little sister tried really hard to participate in this "adult conversation". She tilted her head and answered: "Her highness chose all red [Booby Armors]."

Again.

Another pure girl was using the word "booby". Fei continuously coughed and tried hard to not to spit out the apple that he chewing in his mouth.

"Alexander, do you feel not so well?"

After seeing Fei's head and neck turning red, Angela worried.

"Eh... no, no. Hehe!�� Fei looked around and said: "Today's weather is not bad..."

The dinner time quickly passed away in this enchanting atmosphere – Of course, this atmosphere was only unilateral felt by Fei.

After the servants put away the tablewares, Angela and Emma wanted to moved a little to help with the digestion. They held their hands together and decided to go see the big black dog that was in the "fall hibernation".

10 Places All Men Must Visit While They're Single

Nueey

Angela rescued this big black dog from the back mountain of Chambord. It was only about the size of a hand, cute and weak. Who knew that in the three years time that it would grew to the size of a bull calf with exceptional strength. From the appearance, this black dog definitely wasn't any of the rare species; there weren't any difference between it and other street dogs. However, this beast was very smart and super loyal to Angela and Emma. But for some reason, it didn't like Fei, his male master very much. Every time it saw Fei, it would bark and bare it's teeth.

About ten days ago, this energetic big dog fell into a deep sleep for some reason. Didn't matter how Angela and Emma tried to wake it up, it didn't get up to eat or drink. Angela even got the best vet in Chambord to look at it, and the vet couldn't do anything about it. Angela was pretty anxious about the whole situation...

Of course, everything had a reason.

Fei didn't yet told his beautiful fiancee that the reason why the dog became like this was because — When he was experimenting with the [Hulk Potion]before, he got too excited. He forced open the dog's mouth with his hand and poured half a bottle of the potion into the its mouth. The poor dog fortunately didn't die from the pain, but it for sure suffered from the effect of the potion. That was why it fell into a "hibernation"; because of the animal's self – protecting nature mechanism.

After seeing Angela's and Emma's beautiful figure disappearing from the door, Fei stood up and walked to a window in the palace.

For some reason, Fei suddenly thought of the mysterious elder princess from Zenit Empire. He wasn't sure what this princess is doing here. After arriving at Chambord more than ten days ago, she didn't demand Fei, the king of this affiliated kingdom to go see her. She didn't come to Fei, nor did Fei go visit her. Both of them were like two kids holding grudges against each other. Both were waiting to see who had the most patience, and could endure the uncomfort the most.

"Hehe, she actually picked the red bras. Looks like the elder princess is not as bored as she may appear. Hahaha!"

The King who was in the "obscenity mode" didn't notice that his "eerie" behaviour had scared the servants who were doing the clean up and gave them goosebumps.

"Your majesty, Priest Zola and Knight Luciano from the Holy Church is here and wishing to speak to you."

At this moment, a guard came into the palace and reported.

Fei recognized this guard. He was one of the twenty three strongmen that fought on the stone bridge. His name was Michel-Ballack. He gave Fei a trustworthy feel just from his look: his sharp face, black curly hair and big bright eyes combined together appeared just and honest.

Fei walked to the main executive hall, and saw Priest Zola and Knight Luciano who were waiting respectfully at the gate. A few clean dressed novice priest were behind them and were all holding onto a few big chests.

After seeing Fei's arrival, both of them put on a flattering smile and walked toward Fei. Fei on the other hand side didn't even greet them. He humphed and entered the hall directly. Zola and Luciano didn't get a good response and was pretty embarrassed. However, they didn't dare to show any signs of unpleasantness and waited quietly at the entrance to the hall.

After a while, Guard Ballack came out and said: "King Alexander asked you to come in."

Both of them were delighted. They rushed in, and signal the novice priests who were carrying the big chests to follow them. After they entered the hall, they were all walking on their toes as they lightened their breathing; they were afraid that making any other noises might disturb Fei. After they were under the dual lion clustered throne that was high up on the stairs, Zola and Luciano saluted instantly: "Your majesty... Zola and Luciano greets my master."

"Why are you guys here?"

Fei who was sitting on the high throne and glancing at the two didn't reject, nor accept the title as the master. But to the two, the question that Fei asked meant that he admited his hiden identity, and Zola was even more sure about his prior assumptions. He quickly answered: "Both of us only learnt your true identity today. We truely admires master's identity and deeds. So right after we organized and fixed up the church, we came here immediately to visit you and receive your orders."

After he said that, he signalled the novice priests to open up the two iron chest. Colorful lights shined and brighted up the hall. These lights contained some magic powers and gave Fei a familiar feeling.

"These different classes of magic crystals, and a few magic scrolls are the tributes that Luciano and I wanted to give to master. We wish you could like it." Zola signaled again and the novice priests placed the two chests onto the stone stairs.

Fei didn't say anything.

He walked toward one chest and took a detailed look. The chest was filled with weird shaped stones in a few colors, such as yellow, blue and white. They all bloomed soft lights. What was surprising was that each stone emitted some magic power. Some felt soft, some felt warm, some felt aggressive while some felt dense. Magic powers from all classes flowed in the air as the different colored lights shined.

Fei reached out his head and grabbed onto a magic crystal; his eyebrow slightly furrowed.

He was surprised. Because the magic crystal that Zola was talking about was the same as all the [Chipped Gems]from Diablo World. Not just the shapes, but also the magic power inside of them. He was sure that they were the same thing.

But how didn't the items in Diablo World appear in the real world? And from what Zola and Luciano said, although these magic crystals were expensive, but they were not rare. Otherwise there would be no way for both of them to come up with a whole chest.

Fei threw the [Chipped Emerald]back to the chest, and took a look at the other chest.

The second chest wasn't filled with magic crystals. Instead, there were scrolls made from all different materials and were all tied up delicately with golden threads. There were about a dozen of them, and every scroll had a different color, and a different magic power. However, the dense magic symbols and patterns that were sealed and carved on them lighted up and shined irregularly in no patterns. Although there were only about a dozen scrolls, but Zola the two legged rattlesnake used a whole iron chest to contain them. The value of these scroll probably weren't less than the chest of magic crystals. Unfortunately, Fei didn't have too much knowledge about the mage profession on Azeroth Continent, even after he read all the books in his Royal Library. He couldn't identify what kind, nor the level of the magic that was stored in these scrolls. He also couldn't recognize any of the magic symbol nor patterns. Even though he picked up the scrolls one by one and observed them in detail, he couldn't get any information out of them.

"I will accept these items."

Fei didn't act polite and reject these items at all. Why would he reject these expensive gifts? Moreover, they were from Zola and Luciano, the dirty and greedy partner from Holy Church. Fei won't feel bad even if he took everything that they got.

"Ah, awesome, as long as you like them... As long as you like them!"

After hearing that Fei would accept the gifts, both of them let out the breath that they were holding for a long time. They were lit up; what they saw meant that this majestic [God's Favorite Child] in front of them was satisfied with their behaviour. It was a great sign; if they put more effort into it, the master would be more happy with them.

"One more thing, I want to know how did you guys hear about the evil undead magic appearing during the prior battle?" Fei suddenly asked: "Did the order come from Church's Bishop from Zenit Empire, or it was a direct order from the headquarter Holy Mountain – Waulu?"

A weird expression appeared on Zola and Luciano's face. They stared at each other for a little bit, and Zola finally answered honestly: " Master, this information actually didn't come from the upper layers in the Church. On our way to Chambord, we met a mysterious black cloaked man. He was the one who specifically told us that."

Chapter 88: Discussion Behind the Back

Another mysterious man in black cloak?

Fei heard the words and was instinctively shocked.

The mysterious person���s image in Priest Zola's mouth immediately reminded Fei about the four-star Wood type Sorceress Evans. You know, the Sorceress Evans that was trolled to death by him previously also has this black cloak style, could there be a connection between these two? Could… this mysterious man that newly emerged by Evan's accomplice?

Fei could only pray silently in his heart, it's best that this dark cloak guy is not related to Evans, otherwise it just means that the Mythical Ruins map's situation is likely known now by other people. Then the "fun" is actually big now, the severity of this matter is even far beyond that time he killed the level 4 Thunder Emperor Prince.

"Details of what happened, carefully tell me about everything again…" Fei's eyes were like thunder, directly looked at [Two Legged Bald Rattle Snake] Zola and said without any room of compromise, "Not even the slightest omission is allowed, otherwise… you know the consequences."

"Yes Yes Yes, I definitely not dare to have any concealment for you, sir."

Zola kept nodded grovelingly with an ingratiating smile and explained the whole story exactly from beginning to end.

So, He and Luciano hid in St. Petersburg for sometime, and later when they heard that the Black Armor Army had retreated, they immediately got on the way back to Chambord. After all, in Chambord, these two are still considered two kings, can get wind if they want wind and get rain if they want rain. But at Zenit Empire's capital St. Petersburg, they are only the little eunuch beside the emperor – two nonentities.

But on the way back, their path was blocked by a mysterious man in black cloak that suddenly appeared. That black cloak man demonstrated superior strength, and the two man of 3 star priest and 3 star knight both couldn't compete with them. Fortunately, this man did not hold animosity but actually revealed a very important news to Zola: during the stone bridge battle in the city of Chambord, there appeared weak necromancer magic.

The word "weak" in that black cloak man's mouth suddenly let Zola and Luciano's lit up, necromancer magic is the most intolerable presence in Holy See, and if the two can find out what happened and catch that weak necromancer, they will definitely be heavily rewarded, and their place in Holy See might be promoted one more step.

As for the later indiscriminate arrests after entering the city, that was actually just Zola using the issue to exaggerate, one side was to crazily gather wealth, and on the other hand, they also know that because they did not help with defense when the city was under Black Armor army's siege but found an excuse and escaped from the city, that inevitably led to the Holy See losing prestige in Chambord, so they want to re-establish authority again.

It just that they maintained the domineering act for too long, even though it's the [Two Legged Bald Rattle Snake]'s idea, not only wasn't means of appeasement used, but more surprisingly they used this kind of wrong method that actually further promoted conflict.

"So, the two of ou don't know that black cloak man's identity as well? Didn't even get to see his real face?" After hearing Rattle Snake Zola's honest report, Fei frowned and asked.

"Yes, your honor, that mysterious man is really strong, at least around 4 star. Luciano and I originally indeed wanted to capture him to ask him more questions in detail, but we were both not his match…" When Zola said that, he suddenly became a little embarrassed, and the bearded knight leader Luciano also nodded on the side.

Fei lowered his head and became lost in thought.

Another unpredictable four star power Black Cloak Sorceress with an unknown past, how come listening to the story makes him feel like he's somehow connected with Evans who died before in the dungeon prison. That make Fei secretly scared, feeling like he might've poked a hornet's nest… However, he also faintly felt, as if he ignored something or rather ignored someone.

When Fei was in Necromancer mode he only used two skills, [Teeth] and [Corpse Explosion], but both skills were all completed within 3 to 4 seconds, and later followed by the stone bridge breaking, all evidences have been sunk into Zuli river so theoretically no one can find out, unless there was a pro observing the battle on the stone bridge. If that's really the case, then the mysterious black cloak man mentioned by Zola should also be at the scene. However, the question is here again. If he's really at the scene, seeing his accomplice Evans getting arrested, he would never just ignore it. With his four star power, he could've definitely win the game in an instant… In other words, this mysterious black cloak man seems to very unlikely be Evans' associate.

But, who else can he be?

"You guys are dismissed for now."

Fei thought for a while but couldn't find any clue, he waved his hand to send Zola and Luciano away, hesitated for a second, and then said again, "The thing about necromancer, that's the end, don't need to investigate further. The stakes involved this time is not something you two can imagine, I will personally take care of it. If you guys investigate on your own rashly, alert the enemy and screw up my plan, by then when the wrath of His Holiness arrives, on the Ten Thousand Flow Summit's Fire Pillar, two seats will be saved for you two."

This time Fei completely took advantage of the matter and exaggerated to get away with what he did under camouflage.

Since Zola and Luciano already mistook him to be a big shot from above, Fei simply just took the tiger skin and casually placed it on himself. According to Fei's original plan, he planned to find an opportunity to secretly get rid of these two guys. But, under this situation, perhaps keeping Zola and Luciano will yield magical results later on.

After hearing Fei's words, Zola immediately nodded and bowed and assured, "Your honor, you may rest assured. Luciano and I definitely won't get involved with this matter at all… In the future if your honor has any commands, feel free to order us, Chambord's Holy See is willing to contribute all effort for your honor."

"Well, you two did well. On the matter of finding traces of necromancer, I will credit you guys. When this case is done, after we finish my training here and return back to Divine Mountain Ten Thousand Flow Summit, you guys will naturally be rewarded." Fei first smacked them with a few big sticks, then threw them some sweet candy (TL: referring to the way he treated them), and in order to pretend more realistically, he even started addressing himself as "we".

Zola and Luciano were both rejoiced after hearing those words, suddenly feeling that their future is bright as ever, he kowtowed again and again, humbly kneeling down to kiss Fei's boots, and then joyfully exited the king's hall.

Fei returned to his throne and thought, the identity of this black cloak man is too mysterious with not a single clue, so he decided to might as well not think about it, summoned the prison official to the hall and whispered a few orders.

…

…

After returned to the church, Zola and Luciano dismissed all followers, quietly came to a secret chamber behind the Holy See's chamber.

This is where Zola and Luciano discusses important things.

"Priest Zola, are you sure that this Alexander guy who used to be an idiot, is a big shot from the headquarter?" The bearded knight leader was really distressed about those magic scrolls and sorcerer's stones he had to hand over, frowned and asked. Previously the decision to give gifts to Alexander was made by Zola, and it was still a little hard for Luciano to accept Zola's judgement.

"This… I'm not 100% sure either."

The Rattlesnake Zola after returning to church again revealed a superior haughty demeanor. He stood in front of the chamber's God Father statue with his back facing Luciano. The secret chamber is densely lit by candles, the candle lights flickered, Zola drew a Holy Cross on his chest and then slowly turned around and said, "But, don't forget, today the Double Golden [War Ring] Alexander casted today cannot be doubted. You can also feel the terrifying holy power contained by the ring right? It's possible that even under Zenit pope Sergiyeli's crown, one wouldn't have such pure holy force."

"That's true too, but both you and I know, according to the information we had before, Alexander was nothing but a retard since he was born. He had been stupid for nearly 17 years, how could he be [Darling of the God]?"

Luciano was still a bit uncertain.

"That's exactly what I'm suspicious of too… However, that day when the Holy See judged Paladin's number one pro Holy Knight Charing, before the fame, just because of having disability in both legs he was also considered an idiot. And also the Martial Art God Maradona who even His Holiness have to be a bit courteous towards, for all these years his crazy actions aren't different from an idiot. In the vast mysterious continent of Azeroth, there are too many cases like this, maybe Alexander was just pretending to be a retard in the past…"

Then, a rare horror look flashed past Zola's eyes, he slowly continued and said, "Old man, I suddenly have a terrible premonition. Chambord seemed to be containing a secret we don't know, we may be rolled a matter that we shouldn't know… Just like what Alexander said himself, maybe he is really carrying out His Holiness's order and is secretly investigating something."

After Zola finished, a fleeting trace of coldness shined in his eyes and his entire person became very depressed.

"After talking for this long, you weren't sure of Alexander's true identity either?" Bearded knight leader became a little anxious, "Then why didn't we act after observe for a little longer? But you insisted on not waiting to deliver the gifts. What a pity, that box of precious sorcerer's stones and those magic scrolls. There was even a black scroll of mysterious origin, and it could very likely be a rare forbidden scroll."

"You are wrong. Timing can be met but can't be expected or asked. Once missed, you will regret forever."

Chapter 89: Investing in Our Future

Zola closely stared at Luciano as he solemnly shook his head as he said, "We aren't sure whether Alexander is really the [God's Loved Child], but it's fact that he has the dual golden battle ring. That also means that if he's willing to join the Holy Church, he will receive the love of those masters from the Ten Thousand Flow Summit, and by then, I'm afraid that even the people under Pope Sergiyeli's crown will lower their position to meet him. And, as for low level priests and knights like us, the sorcerer's stones and scrolls can be re-collected slowly over time, but the opportunity to become related to this kind of big figure will only come once in our lives."

The bearded knight Luciano thought for a second, and then agreed.

"Then what do we do after?" He asked.

"Remember one thing; we must obey Alexander's orders…" Zola's eyes glimmered with light, similar to that of a gambler before he made an insane bet. "Although this is a gamble, we still have many advantages. If we are the first ones to take action, the moment we win, our future will take a giant leap, and it might even be possible for us to enter the Ten Thousand Flow Summit… Hehehe, on the contrary, if we lose the gamble, then our loss will just be some stones and scrolls. Hehe, such losses can just be ignored."

"Then should we send someone to report this to Pope Sergiyeli?"

"Don't!" Zola was shocked after hearing that and immediately said, "Old man, are you stupid? Quickly get rid of these kinds of ideas! Remember, after you are dismissed, you must seriously discipline those followers of yours. This information cannot be leaked out at all. If news of a [God's Loved Child] appearing in Chambord spreads out, the benefits of being associated with such a person would diminish. Moreover, the moment the news leaks out, I'm afraid that this small city of Chambord will immediately become popular, with countless great figures scrambling to come here… In comparison to those great figures, you and I have no advantage and will not be able to continue to stay in Chambord's church. If that happened, it would be a lot more difficult to maintain a relationship with Alexander."

Luciano heard those words and was surprised, as he quickly nodded in agreement.

The combination of Zola and him was like a fox and a wolf – one had brains and the other had muscle. Often times, Zola helped him make decisions, and the facts had proven that Zola's vision was always very unique, and he was also very vicious. He relied on Zola's advice and received many promotions along the way and acquired numerous advantages.

In the church's secret chamber, the two soon reached an agreement, and ultimately convinced themselves to believe in Fei's identity as the [God's Loved Child]. The two then began to guess Alexander's preferences after becoming a normal person, preparing to continue fawning over him to further improve their relationship.

...

King's Hall.

Fei put away the two metal boxes, summoned the prison official Oleg to his side and carefully ordered a few things, and then he opened a portal into the Diablo World.

At [Rogue Camp], Fei found the beautiful mercenary Elena.

"Can you tell me if there have been any discoveries in the underground cave's [Lost City]?"

In the new tent built for the supreme leader's temporary residence, Fei curiously checked out the facilities inside the camp while he asked.

"Yes sir. It's hard to imagine, but in the mountains behind Chambord City, there's actually a big lost city in the cave!" The moment Elena spoke of the cave, her face suddenly brightened up. "It's a majestic building… I followed master Oleg into the cave and carefully examined every inch of every room and corridor. Every corner inside the cave is simply carved, so only a few clues were left behind. Because we only checked out a small portion of the building behind the door, I didn't really find anything… However, I don't know why, but the entire stone cave gave me a very strange and familiar feeling."

"Strange feeling?"

Nueey

"Yes master. It's a very strange feeling; it gave off a familiar, yet unfamiliar feeling at the same time, as if I've seen this kind of cave somewhere, but when I thought of it carefully, I couldn't remember a slightest clue." Elena was a little ashamed and lowered her head, "I'm sorry sir. I couldn't help you this time!"

Fei smiled and shook his head and said, "Elena, don't blame yourself. The reason I told you to go visit for yourself was that I myself had the exact feeling, a familiar yet unfamiliar sixth sense… Well, it's fine; we'll drop the topic for now. There's one more thing that I want you to check. What's the difference between these two gems?"

Then, two bright rubies surging with the fire element appeared above Fei's hands.

"My god, these… could these be two [fragmented elemental rubies]?"

Shock emerged on Elena's face as she exclaimed aloud.

As if she was touching some peerless treasure, she carefully took the two gems and observed them. The young and beautiful face became exceedingly stunning under the ruby's light, and the shocking expression carried a hint of confusion. [Fragmented elemental rubies] were very rare in the Rogue world, because once one obtained them, blacksmiths with superb craftsmanship would be able to create powerful magic equipment… This was still Elena's first time seeing the legendary gem.

She tried to supress the excitement inside her heart as she carefully observed.

However, she could not find the slightest difference between the two gems. The smart Elena didn't hurry to jump to conclusions because she knew that since Fei showed her the two stones to ask for her advice, it meant that there must be some particular reason. Therefore, this pretty mercenary observed the gems again while paying much more attention.

But in the end, Elena didn't find anything.

She shook her head and handed the stones back to Fei. Her peerless beautiful face had a hint of frustration as she replied, "I'm sorry, Master Fei, in my opinion these two [Fragmented Rubies] have no difference. Whether comparing size or the elemental power stored within, there is almost no difference."

Fei listened and nodded.

He placed the gems back into storage and didn't say anything else.

But deep inside his heart, Fei couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy.

This was because of the two rubies, one was picked out from that metal box of the sorcerer's stones that Zola dedicated to him, and the other one was a drop from a boss in the Diablo world. Originally, when Fei first saw the sorcerer's stone, he already felt that it was about the same as the gem in the Diablo World, but he wasn't very sure at that moment. But now through Elena's appraisal, Fei could be 100% certain that the sorcerer's stone of Azeroth continent was the same type as the elemental gem in the Diablo world.

This discovery allowed Fei to come up with a new plan.

The gemstones in the metal box Zola contributed had at least three to four hundred, which represented a rare wealth. If he waited later to finish the series of quests at [Lut Gholein] and obtain the crafting chest [Horadric's Cube], he would be able to use these fragmented gems to mass produce strong magic power [Perfect Gems], and inlaying them on some equipment could definitely greatly enhance the magic stat of that equipment.

Now that Fei's doubts were substantially cleared, he prepared to go to [Lut Gholein] to level up.

"Elena, you should go first and prepare; get the armor and weapons ready. I will take you and leave the Rogue Continent to the eastern city [Lut Gholein] to take a look, hehe, and kill some high level demons on the way. Maybe we will have some surprise harvests," Fei smiled and said.

"Desert Pearl [Lut Gholein]?"

Elena heard and rejoiced, not hiding the surprised look on her face at all. After all, she was just a young girl in her 20s. She was always living on the Rogue Continent–a barren place–since birth, and she had always looked forward to visiting the legendary magnificent city Desert Pearl [Lut Gholein]. The moment she heard that Fei was taking her to [Lut Gholein], she happily jumped up like a little girl and quickly went to prepare.

Fei saw this scene and was also infected by Elena's excitement, and his heart suddenly became relaxed.

While Elena was preparing equipment and weapons, Fei found the white-bearded perverted old man Kane and was ready to ask him about the appraisal status of the silver face man's equipment and the 4-star wood element sorcerer Evans' storage ring.

However, from afar he had already seen that wretched man being in a state of mania, lost in appraising the equipment, drooling in front of the equipment and storage ring as he muttered to himself crazily. Seeing Fei's arrival, he didn't even raise his head and simply looked feverishly and said to himself, "This is really incredible! It's a new kind of magic type, demon-injecting techniques… and it really works… Ahhhhh, what's happening?"

Fei looked and knew that the old man had run into some difficulties. The appraisal work hadn't paid off yet, and to avoid being caught by tons of questions, Fei turned around and left right away.

Fei found the beautiful big chested NPC blacksmith Qiaxi again at the Rogue Encampment's northeast corner. In fact, now it was difficult for Fei to treat these people at Rogue Encampment as NPCs, because all of them had such realistic personalities and wisdom. After spending quite some time with them, Fei felt as if they were friends by his side.

After the big chested female blacksmith Charsi helped Fei retrieve the magical iron hammer, she had always been very passionate towards him. Under Charsi 's look of excitement and disbelief, Fei took out a few [Fragmented Gems] from his storage space and handed it to her, as if he was from a rich family and was throwing away money. He said in a coquettish tone, "Hey Charsi

, I think these dozen gems can be helpful to you when forging magic equipment."

"It's actually… Oh my god, it's actually the legendary elemental gems… But… But Master Fei, I still haven't mastered the magical iron hammer's power, and… my forging skill is still at a very low level. I might waste these precious elemental gems…"

"Haha, no problem. These gems are just for you to practice with."

"What? Using the legendary element gems to… practice? I… I…" Charsi staggered, as she thought that she heard it wrong.

Chapter 90: Thoughts on Strength Improvement

As an absolute show-off, Fei really enjoyed the worship of a plump and vibrant beauty like Charsi. So, when he saw the female blacksmith Charsi's jaw-dropping expression, he suddenly felt that the splurge was all worth it with a desired return.

So, he unabashedly became excited.

"Hehe, haha, yes, it's just for you to use for practice, don't be pressured in the slightest. Even if you waste them all, it's fine because I have collected a large quantity of these kind of gems. Haha, you just need to give it your all and master the power of the magic iron hammer as fast as possible and improve your forging skill's level… Hehe, I'm still waiting for the great blacksmith Ms. Charsi to forge powerful magic equipments for me."

"That… Well, master Fei, I… don't know what to say… Thank you so much… From now on… for any of your repairs or forging services, I won't charge you a single coin." The big chested blacksmith Charsi was completely moved by Fei's generosity at the moment, and she became a little incoherent and thanked him, "Dear master, you can take your pick of any equipment here."

Fei was overjoyed.

To be honest, ever since he could enter the second big map in the Diablo world [Lut Gholein], the equipment here at Charsi's place was a bit behind for Fei. The reason Fei was being this nice to Charsi was because he in fact cared about Charsi as a person —- or to be a bit specific, it was Charsi's blacksmith identity.

Everything he did before was to win this big chested pretty lady Charsi's friendship, since a blacksmith that could forge magic equipment, whether it was in the Diablo world or in Azeroth continent's Chambord city, was a treasure that couldn't be ignored. Although Charsi right now was just a normal blacksmith, she possessed a mysterious iron hammer, and she was also very talented herself, with limitless future development. Now that she had gained Fei's support, her future career advancements from an ordinary blacksmith to a forger was not impossible. That way, she would play a vital role in Fei's future plan.

This is a investment for the future.

The so-called element gems in the Diablo world was priceless and considered as a legendary treasure, but it wasn't uncommon in the Azeroth continent, otherwise Zola and Luciano, the 3-star power church members wouldn't be able to get such a large chest of it.

When the two were chatting and smiling, the pretty mercenary Elena already finished packing and waved in the distance. Fei was tight on time, so he said goodbye to Qaxi, turned around and left.

But when he got to Elena, he was shocked.

He had just saw that the beautiful mercenary Elena had not only prepared equipment and weapons, but also carried many other things in big and small bags. There was a black little pot for making rice, refined steel support, some firewood, all sorts of vegetables and dry meat, and a few pieces of thick tarps for tent-making, tent poles, etc. For easier carrying, Elena even got a white milk cow with yellow patterns from the rogue camp and pulled a medium wooden cart.

More than a dozen beautiful young girls surrounded the wooden cart and stood beside Elena with tears, reluctantly saying goodbye to sister Elena.

"Uh… What are you guys doing?" Fei suddenly had black lines on his head. (TL: it's like the sticker of a guy with vertical black lines on his head)

"These are things that will come in handy on the journey to [Lut Gholein]…" A petite and lovely little girl used a look used when looking at idiots and towards Fei and said, "The journey crosses numerous mountains and cliffs, as well as the vast desert of death. It is a very dangerous two thousand mile journey, so you guys probably have to take 2 to 3 months. You can't be careless on the supply aspect."

"Yes Master Fei, you must take good care of sister Elena…" The other girls were also concerned and said, "Of course master, you must be careful yourself as well. I heard that Diablo blocked the mountain road, and the journey will be very dangerous and entrenched with countless demons and monsters!"

Fei, "…"

10 Places All Men Must Visit While They're Single

Nueey

He didn't have time to explain too much, so reached out and pulled Elena's slender and jade-like hands, ignoring the others' blushing expressions and applause. They ran all the way to the front of the boat operator Warriv, picked the [Go east] option in the dialogue, and then a light flashed, and the blue clothed Warriv suddenly disappeared from the crowd's attention.

The other people were all stunned.

"So after killing Anderson Keli'er, that most useless man in the encampment Warriv actually obtained such an amazing ability… That's too amazing; could we go to [Lut Gholein] through him too?"

…

…

[Lut Gholein]

Elena curiously checked out this city that only existed in Rogue Encampment's legend.

However, what made her a little disappointed was that the "Pearl of the desert" city wasn't as bustling and prosperous as described by the touring journalists, but rather it was filled with a bleak atmosphere. The wind blew with yellow sand, and the magnificent street couldn't conceal the messy street. There were very few pedestrians, and the few people they occasionally met were dull and lifeless, and even worse than the people at [Rogue Encampment].

However, Fei's time in the Diablo world was limited, so he didn't have time for Elena to check out this "Pearl of the Desert" and took her straight out of the city into the wilderness. Going all the way north to trek through the [Rocky Waste], they ultimately found the [Halls of the Dead] located at the [Dry Hills], and then habitually began the endless killings.

The quest this time was to find the [Horadric Cube] inside [Halls of the Dead]'s underground maze.

This incredible cubical box was an indispensable thing to complete other quests. Beside that, to Fei this stone box also had other more important roles, such as synthesizing Azeroth Continent's high level sorcerer's stones and other important equipment and supplies.

Countless monsters wandered in the [Halls of the Dead]'s underground maze.

The monsters here were much higher than the Rogue Encampment's level in both attack and defense, and most of them were all new faces. Some looked like a skeleton called [Revived Souls], some were tanky and burst poisonous mists after death named [zombie], and some looked exactly like the past life Egypt mythology's death god mummy which had the ability to summon skeletons.

The endless killings continued.

Time flew by during the endless shrill screaming, blood splashing, bone stubble flying, and potions and equipment were constantly dropped.

Just when Fei's 4 hour time limit was about to come, the two of them finally made their way into the underground maze's 3rd level, which was only a few chambers away from the biggest boss [Blood Witch the Wild] which kept the [Horadric's cube].

Fei calculated the time and estimated that he wouldn't be able to kill the boss before he was forced to leave the Diablo world, so he might as well have stopped right now and used the transportation portal and directly returned to [Lut Gholein]. He found the blue clothed Warriv, chose the [Go west] option and instantly teleported back to [Rogue Encampment].

He gave the equipment he collected from this killing to Elena to let her take care of it. Then, Fei found a quiet place, traded some portions from the mysterious cold voice, and the time had just ended and he opened the portal and directly left the Diablo world.

…

Chambord City, King's Hall.

Fei sat highly on the throne and was rethinking his leveling strategy.

In just 4 hours, the barbarian character finally slowly reached level 21. Fei gave the one skill point to Brutal Strike, and his strength had improved once again.

During this process, Fei begun to realize that after reaching level 20, the exp needed for the character to level was higher and higher, so the leveling process became slower and slower. In the past, 4 hours of time was enough to level up 2 or 3 times, but now 4 hours wasn't enough to level once, even when he entered higher level maps. His leveling speed was still overwhelmingly reduced, and that meant that Fei's increase in strength in the real world inevitably became harder and slower.

"Maybe I should change my perspective, temporarily hold off leveling the barbarian character and start leveling the other 6 classes…" This idea flashed in Fei's mind.

After all, in Diablo, every class had its speciality and had many unique skills, but they all had their own advantages and disadvantages. If Fei could use his knight, priest, druid, necromancer, amazon and rogue to all master the [Rogue Encampment] map and gather all 7 professions' skills to one to complement each other, then his strength would probably be stronger than just focusing on the barbarian. This could be seen by how one need multiple players of different professions to work together in order to kill bosses, and in the previous battle in Chambord ,there was also an obvious example – during the stone bridge battle, Fei relied on the priest and barbarian skill combo to kill 3-star sword man Langde..

And as Fei also guessed, if he could really beat the [Rogue Encampment] map with the 7 professions, maybe he could get some huge reward from that mysterious voice, and that was more than worth the wait.

Of course, Fei also thought of other ways.

To the Diablo world's characters, one's own strength wasn't really dependent on one's level; the quality of equipment was also very important. A powerful set of equipment could enhance a character's strength significantly, and in a stand-alone game like this, if one want to get good equipment, in addition to the normal monster grinding, buying powerful equipment from NPC merchants was also a great shortcut.

However, the question of where he could obtain such a large amount of gold coins came to his mind.

Fei eventually had his eyes set on the [Horadric's Cube] and the sorcerer's stone. Now, Fei needed to get information on something to determine whether his idea was feasible. If it really was as he thought, then Fei could have countless gold coins.

Chapter 91: Before the Celebration

Time ran by fast.

The normally quiet as a picture Chambord city had gradually become lively.

In less than 4 days, the young King Alexander would be 18 years old and could accept the Zenit Empire's emperor's conferment and officially occupy the throne and become the 8th king of Chambord City.

In the past two weeks, Chambord City had gone through too many things, and in that process, Alexander incredibly rose from a ridiculed idiot to a true king inside the hearts of the Chambord citizens. Because of this, the whole country had been looking forward to this day.

As time approached, everyone was happily preparing for the king's ascension.

Anything would have to give way for the ceremony, and even the two military giants officials Bast and Brooke who were incredibly busy coping with the upcoming military and political reform also put down their heavy workload and began fully focusing on the preparations for King Alexander's ascension to the throne.

In accordance with Chambord city's tradition, the location of the ceremony was chosen to be on the summit of the Eastern Mountain inside the city. Four days later when the first ray of golden sun shined from the sea of clouds would be the moment that Alexander ascends the throne.

Although Fei repeatedly urged for the ceremony to be simple, there was still a large number of materials used for the celebration, and they were carried by a continuous flow of workers up the mountain. Everyone put in an effort, wanting to prepare this as the grand event of Chambord City. Alexander's past performance has completely won the hearts of all residents, and most people were more than willing to accept the rule from such a kind-hearted king from the bottom of their hearts. All men and women, young and old, all fought to be the first ones to contribute; the wealthy ones contributed money, the muscular ones contributed with labor, the merchants contributed items, and the general population contributed many people to all join the preparation army for this celebration.

What surprised many people was that Chambord City's Holy Church's Priest Zola and Luciano knight also joined the service army, and the monks and knights all showed unprecedented enthusiasm, providing a lot of financial support. Zola and Luciano also personally boarded the summit of the Eastern Mountain, doing their morning prayers every morning with an extremely devout attitude, as if the one ascending the throne in 4 days was not Alexander, but rather Pope Sergiyeli.

At the same time, there were also guests from afar that came to the Chambord City.

After hearing news of Alexander entering adulthood and ascending the throne, many small countries around Chambord city that were affiliated with the Zenit Empire also sent messengers to congratulate him. Of course, Zenit empire had 250 affiliated countries, so the ones that came to congratulate him was just a very small portion. After all, Chambord city was only a tier 6 subsidiary city, and it was still a question of whether it could maintain its tier 6 subsidiary city status in the upcoming empire war practice drills. The weak needed no diplomacy, and it was the same law in Azeroth Continent.

...

Morning, birds singing among the flowers' scent.

King's Discussion Hall.

In the little pond in the middle of the hall, clean water was running, and red fish playfully wagged their tails. On the stone chairs on two sides of the pond sat the leaders of Chambord city who were currently having a meeting for King Alexander's upcoming Ascension Ceremony.

This was an extended meeting; in addition to the military officials and nobility, there were also highly respected people that were invited to attend the meeting.

On the first stone chair on the left hand side below the throne, the herald Bast was summarizing the information he had complied.

10 Places All Men Must Visit While They're Single

Nueey

"… Sereith City's Prince Aobiner, Lake City's Prince Modric, Shenhua City's Prince…" Old handsome Bast said about 20 countries' name in one breath, looked up, and slowly looked at everyone in the stone chairs as he continued, "This is the messenger list of all the countries that came to congratulate King Alexander's official acceptation of canonization."

"Tier 3 Subsidiary City's Sereith City also sent someone?" Brooke who sat on the right hand side's first chair listened and slightly frowned, as if he thought of something. He said in surprise, "weren't they good buddies with the Block Stone City? Even one of the so-called [Five Eagles] of the 250 Subsidiary City Princes' Prince Aobina was sent here?"

"Five eagles?" Fei very sensitively caught this term.

"Yes, your Majesty. In the 250 subsidiary cities in Zenit Empire, various young elites emerged among the various royal families' princes. They are all incredibly talented and have also been vigorously cultivated by the royal families, and the people that had nothing better to do grouped their names together and called them the [Ten Elites], [Nine Warriors], [Eight Pro], [Seven Wolves], [Six Heroes], [Five Eagles], [Four Blades], [Three Mad], [Two Hidden], [One Sword]. Sereith City's little prince Aobina is one of the [Five Eagles]'s [Wing Eagle] and is rumored to have reached the four-star level of strength. Besides, this Sereith City is a tier 3 subsidiary city, but they have always been really close with our sworn enemy Black Rock City, so they can be considered as one of our potential enemies. I didn't think that they would actually send someone to see your Majesty's ceremony, and of all the people, they sent the [Wing Eagle] Aobina… I suspect that they aren't up to any good and have ill intent.

Brook heard Fei's question and immediately stood up and briefly explained the origin of the [Five Eagles], as well as Chambord's and Sereith's relationship.

Fei nodded and understood the general idea.

A small tier 3 subsidiary city that actually had a prince of the 4-star strength surprised Fei a little. Besides the [Five Eagles], there were also the [Ten Elites], [Nine Warriors], [Eight Pro], [Seven Wolves], [Six Heroes], [Four Blades], [Three Mad], [Two Hidden], [One Sword]. These people were obviously not some insignificant characters, especially the 10 people in front of the 4-star level [Five Eagles]; their power was obviously terrifying.

This discovery made Fei suddenly feel a sense of urgency and made him feel like a little frog sitting at the bottom of a well… He originally thought that Chambord city had been developing pretty well recently, but now that he looked closely, it wasn't close to being enough. It still wasn't enough to just rely on the "Hulk Potion".

"But in addition, tier 4 Lake City has always been very close to Chambord. Lake City's King Blanco and your Majesty's father had a very close relationship, calling each other brothers. This time, the little prince Modric that came to congratulate is only 16 years old, but is already recognized to be one of the [Ten Elites], with a pinnacle 2-star strength and an immeasurable future. I think your Majesty should personally meet Prince Modric," Bast suggested.

"Okay. On the matter of the reception of the embassy, you will arrange everything and let me know the result."

Fei's head was getting a little big from this kind of conference. Countless little things piled up and became cumbersome. He thought for a second, and directly left the mess to his future father-in-law Bast, Brooke and the others, and then he shamelessly patted his butt and directly fled from the hall.

In the hall, everyone looked at each other in an awkward silence.

There were so many people in this world who wanted to ascend to the throne this high, and after they got the throne, many of them would hold on to their power tightly in fear of sharing a tiny bit with others. However, Alexander was the exact opposite, and hid away from the power like it was a disease. This king was really unique, but who would help the ministers inside the hall get out of the awkward atmosphere?

"Let's… continue our discussion."

Bast shook his head with a wry smile, "I will report the final details to His Majesty and make a decision later."

Chambord City's back mountain, Original Steel Prison Water Dungeon Square.

This place had long been classified as forbidden and completely blocked. Of course, there seemed to be nothing wrong from the outer appearance. The guards were just like before; there were only 4 or 5 extremely and relaxed soldiers lazily scattered at the entrance of the stone castle. But in the dark, the 22 warriors were following a strange pattern around all sides of the mountain paths patrolling, and not even a mosquito could get in undetected.

As the king, Fei smoothly entered the forbidden ground with no resistance and went straight down into the underground stone cave maze.

The originally dark underground stone cave had significantly changed.

In comparison to the quiet outside, the inside was much more active, with rattling sounds of stone and metal clanging all over the place. Prison official Oleg and King's Bodyguard Army Leader were currently commanding hundreds of carefully selected fine soldiers–according to the blueprints on beast skins provided by Fei–to completely re-repair this water prison.

The 100 workers that worked here were all elites chosen by Brooke in accordance to Fei's order. They had a clean background, were loyal and reliable, and after being refined by the diluted [Hulk Potion], their strength significantly improved. Although none of them had yet to level up to star-level warriors, each of their physical bodies had reached over thousands of pounds. They were tyrannically strong, clearly comparable to the 22 warriors from the previous stone bridge battle. They were also trained by a master like Peter-Cech, so they had begun to take form as the prototype of an Iron Army.

The originally eerie and terrifying water prison had changed its look bit by bit.

The blood-stained iron fences and torture instruments had been removed. In the skyscraper interior-like huge stone hall that was deep into the corridor, a dozen iron furnaces had been set up. The best blacksmiths in Chambord city brought their best apprentices, and along with the help of the soldiers, they continuously sent the iron fences into the furnace to be melted. Following the drawings provided by Fei, they created new strange looking things. These things weren't swords or armor; most were just strange instruments and gadgets that most people didn't know about.

Chapter 92: Mysterious Transformation of the Underground Cave

In the deep corridor, the captain of the King's bodyguard army Peter Cech exposed his strong upper body. His muscles stood out like rocks, and his lower body was wearing Fei's design, which were straight breeches that had recently swept the entire Chambord city as a fashion leader. He waved a giant iron hammer of at least five hundred kilograms like a windmill; in the roar of the loud noises, the dirty yellow color of his muscles were flashing, and Cech was like a violent humanoid excavator, smashing down steel fences within the endless rumbling noises and caused by the demolition work.

At this time, Cech had completely digested the remnants of the [Hulk Potion] left inside his body, and the faint green color on the surface of his skin had disappeared. He had also erased the miserable mental state from before and got his muscles to sturdy up. In addition to his physical strength, through the days and nights of hard training, he even returned to his past pinnacle 2-star power. To be able to recover to the peak of his power within only a dozen days, it still mainly had to do with the strength he originally had. In the past, Cech was recognized to be number one among 2-stars in terms of defense with his air-tight horizontal lock-down sword style. Besides, he originally had some talent in terms of leading an army, so Cech's recovery meant that Fei gained another talent that could lead an army on his own besides Brooke.

The prison official Oleg's chubby body shuttled back and forth among the crowd.

As if affected by Cech's naked body style, the prison official also exposed his upper body, and whenever there were huge stones or steel that couldn't be moved due to being too heavy, Oleg would jiggle his fat and laugh, and then personally join in to help, showing off the great power he gained after being transformed with the [Hulk Potion].

Just like Fei, this guy was also a show off.

Whenever hearing the soldiers exclaiming and talking, Oleg would always look triumphant. Perhaps it was also because of this kind of heart, that although his power stayed at around 1 star, his physical strength had actually crazily grown to 2 stars, as if he spent all the effects of the [Hulk Potion] onto his physical body's transformation. Right now, Oleg even had a ferocious and sturdy scent and developed a six-pack, completely changing from his obnoxiously fat man image from half month ago.

Seeing from afar how this greedy and coward-like fatty actually became close with the soldiers and even got some respect from the veterans, Fei was slightly surprised, but also satisfied that fat Oleg was on his journey to return to grace, but wasn't he running a bit too f**king fast? It was like a fart that blew all the dust away!

"King Alexander!"

"His Majesty!"

Seeing Fei's arrival, the face of worshiping a god emerged on all the soldiers' faces, and they all bowed and saluted. Fei walked very slowly and greeted them all with a smile. After a few days of contact, he could now accurately call out the names of every soldier. That was also a small means of capturing the hearts of the soldiers. After all, when the young soldiers heard that His Majesty actually knew their names, they would always feel touched to the point that their blood boiled.

The demolition work at the water prison was still being carried out in an intense but orderly manner.

This time, Fei brought back some second stage forging blueprints and gave them to the busy blacksmiths.

Among the 30 or so blacksmiths in Chambord city, the best one and also the most respected one was a middle-aged man named Samuel. His short black hair shot up like needles and he was usually pretty quiet and as stable as a boulder, so people liked calling him Rock. His personality was pretty dull, but he was very loyal to friends and very kind; he was the type of typical rough man that had a cold outside but a warm heart.

On the edge of the hot iron stove, Samuel carefully looked at the drawings on the beast skins that His Majesty gave to him, and his eyebrows frowned tightly into a ball. He stopped the work in his hand and began thinking; he was sometimes surprised and sometimes confused, and the two facial expressions just kept alternating.

Seeing how interesting his face was, Fei couldn't help but jump in and explain those drawings one by one, and then also carefully reminded the detailed problems that needed attention during the forging process. Samuel stayed silent; his talent was very high as a blacksmith, and he was often capable of reaching enlightenment with just a brief pointer. After hearing Fei to the end, his eyebrows finally relaxed, and it seemed like he finally realized what should be done and kept on nodding, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. We can build these iron tools within 10 days for sure."

Fei smiled and said, "These days you guys have been really working hard. Time is tight and the task is heavy, so if you guys have any requests for pay or accommodation, feel free to request it to Oleg and he will satisfy everyone."

Upon hearing His Majesty's generous promise, the blacksmiths cheered.

Nueey

Fei carefully examined the whole underground cave, made slight adjustments to his design according to the actual situation, and then summoned Cech and Oleg to his side and walked towards the king's palace hall that was already set up in the giant stone hall.

He has something to say to both of them.

But, when Fei walked past the iron stove, he suddenly had another idea.

In fact, Samuel and the other blacksmiths in Chambord city were forging some large-scale heavy equipment. They were a bit simple and easier to forge, but for those small gears, screws, and other small fine and difficult parts, Fei gave them to the female blacksmith Charsi in the Diablo world so that they wouldn't be a problem. When the time came, he would just have to think of a way to exchange these items out of the Diablo world.

However, exchanging items out of the Diablo world was too costly and needed a lot of gold coins. If he could do something for Charsi and Elena to come to the real world, then it would all be good. That would not only save a significant amount of exchange fee, but Fei could also let Rock Samuel follow Charsi and learn some superb forging skills. For the current Chambord city, skilled craftsmen were needed most after skilled warriors, so it would be best to let the big chested girl Charsi train a group of talents in this field as soon as possible.

This idea flew past Fei's mind and made him instantly think of a lot of other things, so he decided to actually try out this plan in the near future.

The three men came to a comfortable stone chamber inside the cave that was the temporary palace for His Majesty.

Fei took out another bottle of [Hulk Potion] and gave it Cech, letting him follow the previous method to once again dilute it into clear water and let the soldiers unconsciously drink it.

These 100 soldiers were now the secret force of the Chambord city. After taking the potion during the first stage, their bodies had been transformed almost to the point where they were ready for the second transformation. Unfortunately, due to people like Cech and Brooke taking a large quantity for their first dose, their potential had been completely revealed, so taking the [Hulk Potion] again wouldn't have any more effects. If Fei wanted to enhance their strength further, he needed to think of other ways.

Cech held the [Hulk Potion] and was about to leave when Fei suddenly thought of something.

He suddenly stopped Cech and said, "Oh right Peter, among those several blacksmiths, if there are any loyal and reliable people, you can also let them take some of the diluted [Hulk Potion]. If their physical body strength gets increased to the same level of the soldiers, the forging tasks later on will also be completed quicker."

With a pleasant surprise in Cech's eyes, he bowed and left with the order.

There were only Fei and Oleg left in the hall.

Fei looked up and down on Oleg several times, and his eyes stopped at the 6-pack of this fat man for a second. He checked him out until Oleg couldn't stand straight anymore due to how uncomfortable it was to be checked out by another man, and then Fei finally nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, you are good, very good… Oleg, you are a wise man, you know what I'm talking about, right?"

Oleg nodded.

Of course he understood what the phrase "very good" His Majesty was referring to.

Presently, the power structure within Chambord city has been re-established. The former commander-in-chief Bazel became a wanted fugitive offender of the country, and his accomplices had all been killed either under the hands of His Majesty himself or by the two giants Bast and Brooke. If one was to say that one person escaped, it would be Oleg. His body was also deeply marked with a Bazel clan mark, and as one of the main evildoers he originally couldn't escape punishment. But just because His Majesty remembered Oleg's participation at the stone bridge war, the King used his personal prestige and saved his worthless life once. His Majesty always hoped that Oleg could be reformed and use actions to change how people used to look at him and seek their forgiveness and ultimately merge into the leading group at Chambord city. Otherwise, despite having His Majesty's support, Oleg's existence would always be a thorn, deeply rooted inside the core power of Chambord city and potentially cause internal strife.

Oleg had long understood of King Alexander's hard planning. He's was smart fatty, and at least he had his own way to manage relationships with people and naturally knew how to win the recognition of Brooke and the other good people. So during this period of time, he tried very hard to do everything right, and he did indeed do a lot of good deeds which finally had an effect, helping him gain the recognition of most people in the Chambord city.

"Oleg thanks Your Majesty for the reform opportunity."

Thinking of all of that, Oleg's heart was full of affection.

This time, this fat suck-up kneeled down to the ground for a standard bow, without gorgeous rhetoric and kissing Fei's boots.

It was also at this moment that he found his inner peace and finally understood at that moment: only if a spine was always upright and solemnly bent down in front of His Majesty, could it be regarded as true respect; on the contrary, a spine that could bend down any moment wouldn't mean much in front of his king; it wouldn't be glory, but rather an insult.

Chapter 93: Huh? Where are the people?

Fei watched Oleg's performance and knew that this fatty really understood his thoughts this time and he nodded pleasantly.

He didn't say anything anymore.

With a sudden thought, Fei placed a red sorcerer's stone on the table in front of him and asked, "Come take a look, do you recognize this thing?"

"This is a low-grade fire elemental sorcerer's stone."

Oleg showed a little trace of surprise and honestly replied.

"Well, since you recognize it, then let's talk about it. About the sorcerer's stone, how much do you know?"

Oleg didn't know why His Majesty suddenly started asking about the sorcerer's stone, but he didn't dare to neglect at all, and after a little thought he started replying, "The sorcerer's stone is a magical stone rich with elemental strength, and according to the quality it can be categorized into low-grade, medium grade, high-grade, perfect and legendary grade. In the land of Azeroth, a sorcerer's stone was a symbol of wealth above gold and silver coins, especially to the many sorcerers and warriors. A sorcerer's stone's worth was above coins, because sorcerers could use its elemental power to enhance their magic stats, build magic arrays, make magic scrolls and equipment, and warriors could extract the elemental powers to enhance their energy storage capacity and the speed at which their energy was condensed into star levels…"

"Oh?" Fei was surprised for a second and then said, "Then according to what you said, warriors can also use their magic stones to increase their energy level?"

"Yes, your Majesty."

"Well… Okay, tell me more about the different grades of sorcerer's stones. Can they achieve a certain percentage of conversion rate among them?"

"Of course, your Majesty, the Sorcerer's Stone's quality is mainly dependent on the level of energy it contains. Generally speaking, a medium-grade sorcerer's stone's elemental energy storage is 100 times low-grade ones, and the high-grade is 100 times the storage of the medium grade, and perfect-grade has 100 times more storage than the high-grade storage. Of course, that's just a general standard."

Oleg was very slow with the explanation, trying his best to make his answer seem detailed.

"… the conversion ratio between different ranks of the magic stone originally follows the ratio of 1:100 too, however, most of the time, because the quantity of higher quality magic stones is relatively less, things usually can't be measured buy the amount of energy contained, and higher grade stones can be traded for a little over 100 lower grade ones. In the case of some special events such as an outbreak of war, high grade sorcerer's stones can be used to make large magic scrolls, and with increased demand during war, sorcerer's stones of different grade's conversion rate can go up to 1:150 or even 1:200."

Fei suddenly felt incredibly happy.

His previous guess was verified, and that meant his plan could also be successfully implemented.

Clearly, the so-called low, medium, high, perfect, legendary grade 5 types of sorcerer's stones respectively corresponded to the Diablo world's [Chipped Gem], [Flawed Gem], [Regular Gem], [Flawless Gem], [Perfect Gem] five types of gems. But in the Diablo world, every tier of gem could be upgraded at the conversion ratio of 3:1. Then, Fei just needed to find [Horadric Cube] at [Lut Gholein]'s Halls of Dead, and then he would be able to freely upgrade high grade [Perfect Gems], and then take advantage of the giant difference in conversion rate between the real world and the Diablo world to acquire huge profits.

"In our Chambord city, are there any channels for exchanging sorcerer's stones?"

10 Places All Men Must Visit While They're Single

Nueey

Fei tries to suppress the excitement in his heart and continued asking.

"Your Majesty, the exchange of sorcerer's stones can indeed be performed in some large business market groups, but Chambord city is relative remote, so very few large trading groups would come visit us here. If we want to exchange sorcerer's stones, we must send out a trade team outside to initiate contact."

"So, now there's no channel readily available for sorcerer's stone trading?" Fei was a little disappointed.

"Let me think… Yes, there is a way, you can do it at the Holy Church, but it is generally open to the people outside of the Holy Church." Oleg thought for a while and said.

Church?

Fei's eyes suddenly brightened up.

An idea suddenly came to his mind.

"Alright, you are dismissed… Oh right, the transformation process of the underwater prison should be appropriately accelerated, but we can't let the soldiers and blacksmiths feel too tired. Remember, on the food and pay side of things for our people, we must not dissatisfy them. As for what to do in detail, I think you know very well already. If you get me trouble, watch how I beat your ass." Fei smiled and said.

Oleg was also a smart man, and he knew that His Majesty smiling and swearing at the same time meant that his Majesty was quite satisfied with his performance these days, so he nodded, respectfully bowed, and turned around and exited the hall.

Fei sat quietly and thought that since there was nothing that he needed to take care of here, and since it was also about time, he simply ordered the guards to hold the stone hall's entrance to prohibit anyone from entering, and then directly opened the portal and entered the Diablo world.

…

…

Diablo World.

Deep inside the [Dry Hills] outside of [Lut Gholein].

[Halls of Dead]'s third underground floor.

Fei brought beauty mercenary Elena and finally came here again.

[Halls of Dead] was an underground tomb, and its layout was somewhat similar to the underground at the back mountain of Chambord City; it was also a buried underground stone maze, but it was much more gorgeous and magnificent than the one in Chambord city. Here there was a long corridor, and the walls of the corridor were engraved with some fuzzy murals, telling of the prosperous ancient times. In addition to the murals, there were giant pillars everywhere. On the secret chamber's door were some carved strange magic characters, and the power of the elemental magic was somewhat hidden and present; with just a little touch the door would sink into the ground with a loud noise, revealing the internal space of the chamber behind the stone door.

Fei had a health potion bottle in his mouth and used himself as a meat shield to block off the chamber's entrance, preventing the mass of monsters inside from coming out as he waved the giant axes in his hand. The frost bolts were also fired from Elena's hands through Fei's hair and accurately landed on the monsters in front of them.

The two had already cooperated with each other in this kind of environment many times and had long been familiar with this place. A glance and an action was all they needed to produce numerous sparks, and that was the so-called best partners.

Under such cooperation, the chief boss [Blood Witch the Wild] finally couldn't hold anymore, wailed and sprayed out blood, and then fell into the pool of blood on the ground filled with resentment.

And as she fell, a light "ding dong" ring was heard, the light gold color shined, and a dark gold box with a mysterious pattern engraved appeared on the ground, flashing a dizzy and mysterious grey light.

"It's the [Horadric Cube]!"

Fei was overjoyed, as he ignored the gold equipment and 3 blue equipment that were also dropped. He went up and picked up the [Horadric Cube] as if he picked up a peerless treasure, carefully checked it back and forth, and then he finally calmed down.

Judging from the outside, [Horadric Cube] was a box forged with dark steel, 20 cm in both length and width, and the body of the box was covered up with dark yellow color metal bands, forming ancient and simple patterns, like a vine wrapped around the box. It looked very heavy, at least about 3 to 4 pounds, but in Fei's hand it felt as light as a feather.

Fei quickly opened the [Horadric Cube], and inside the box was another dimension, with 12 spaces with 3 in width and 4 in height, just like the computer game from the past.

He couldn't wait and got the long prepared 3 [Chipped Gems] from his bad, closed the box, then pressed the palm of his hand on the S-shaped pattern at the top of the box and injected a little magic power into it.

An indescribable sound of nature came to their ears.

When they reopened the box, the magical upgrading effect of the [Horadric Cube] really worked, Fei just saw that the three [Chipped Gems] that were originally placed inside the box had turned into a [Flawed] Gem, and from the appearance point of view it was much better than the [Chipped Gems], and the elemental energy contained inside also achieved a vigorous growth of 100 times… The legendary artifact [Horadric Cube] really worked!

Fei felt greatly assured.

This marked that his money-making plan had completed more than a big half.

Now that they got the [Horadric Cube], Fei is no longer in a hurry to complete the next missions on the list, he already adjusted the future leveling strategy, so he took Elena directly back to the [Rogue Encampment], then shut himself in his temporary tent, and began the "gem synthesis plan".

During the process, Fei quietly opened the portal numerous times, coming back and forth out of the Diablo world and the real world over 30 or 40 times, using the Barbarian's inventory space and took more than half of the sorcerer stones that Zola contributed before into the Diablo World, and chose a portion of it to start the synthesis process.

After about half an hour later, Fei finished synthesizing 10 [Flawed Gems], 10 [Regular Gems], 10 [Flawless Gems] and 2 [Perfect Gems], and then he sold the rest of the [Chipped Gems] at Akara's place, receiving a total 50,000 gold coins in total, and together with the 30,000 gold coins he accumulated previously, now on Fei's Barbarian character there was actually a large sum of 80,000 gold coins.

"Muahahahaha, I'm rich, I'm rich!"

With the money, he could purchase a set of super armor and powerful weapon equipment from senior NPCs at [Lut Gholein], and that way, the strength of the Barbarian character would absolutely instantly grow one or two times.

In the thought of excitement, without the slightest hesitation Fei directly walked out of the tent and found the Blue Cloth Warriv at the encampment, and was about to pick [Go East] towards [Lut Gholein]…

Just at that moment, a timid voice suddenly came to his ear.

"Sir Fei, please wait!"

"Sir, we also want to go visit [Lut Gholein], can you take us with you?"

"Yes, sir, please bring us, we promise that we won't bring you trouble, we will only tour around the streets and see the style of the big city…"

More than a dozen young and beautiful female rogues flashed their big eyes and surrounded Fei, frequently flirting with Fei with their eyes. Last time these girls were surprised to find that Warriv could actually take someone and teleport them to the desert pearl [Lut Gholein] thousands of miles away, avoiding the two months of travel, and they were all extremely excited and all wanted to go tour around in the big city. But it turned out that Warriv's teleport ability was actually useless to them, so they had no choice but to go ask Fei to take them.

Fei was completely trapped buy these beautiful women's flirtatious eyes.

"No problem, I will take you guys, hahaha…"

So, Fei agreed to the requests of these rogues, and after talking to Warriv, he picked "Go East". After a white light, Fei disappeared in front of the rogues' eyes, but… these female rogues all looked at one another, and were stunned at the same spot.

[Lut Gholein].

"Hahaha, we are here. You guys can walk around in the city, but remember, do not go to the sewer or leave the city. All the monsters are very powerful, and you guys will be no match for them… Uh? Where are the people?"

Fei was just talking, but when he turned around to look, there's actually no one standing behind him.

What happened?

Uh… Did those female rogues suddenly changed their mind and not come anymore?
