Hail the King

Chapter 487: Master Show

It was a huge surprise! Who could have thought that the young prince who was now a level 3 top-tier New Moon Elite could kill several masters easily? One of the masters who died was a Half Moon Elite, far beyond Girano’s level.

That black wand!?

Almost everyone’s attention focused on the wand that was about 20 centimeters long and was as thin as a thumb. The black-purplish crystal orb at the top was about the size of a pigeon egg, and it was giving off a little godly and indefensible energy.

“Could it be…… A God-tier Item?”

“Ah…… Black Crystal…… I know! That is [Black Crystal Wand]! The scepter of the emperor of the St. Germain Empire! It is a legendary Semi-God-tier Combat Weapon!” someone thought of something and shouted.

Semi-God-tier Combat Weapon.

These words made the masters in the area fall into a state of craziness. They all stared at the wand in Girano’s hand and gulped down their drools.

Combat Weapons were the primary weapons of the masters on the Azeroth Continent. They could be divided into eight levels, and anything higher than level 6 was rare, and Semi-God-tier Combat Weapons were beyond level 8. These weapons could be considered as strategic weapons, and many empires only had one. If powerful masters could use them, they were able to change terrains and change the outcome of a war.

If two people were on the same level, the person who had a Semi-God-tier Weapon would be able to kill the enemy easily. It would allow warriors or mages who kill thousands of enemies on their level. With the help of Semi-God-tier Combat Weapons, a Star-level Warrior was able to fight a Moon-Class Elite, and a Moon-Class Elite was able to fight with a Sun-Class Lord! The only thing was that a ton of energy was required to use a Semi-God-tier Combat Weapon. If a Star-level Warrior were to use it, he or she Warrior Energy and Life Energy would be instantly sucked away.

For a moment, almost everyone in the area wanted to their hands on the Semi-God-tier Combat Weapon that Girano had. However, no one dared to make a move. After all, if Girano wanted to, he could even battle a Sun-Class Lord! Although he couldn’t use this Combat Weapon for long, no one wanted to be the sacrificial lamb!

With this Semi-God-tier Combat Weapon, Girano was one of the most influential people here.

Therefore, as this Crown Prince of the St. Germain Empire looked around, no one dared to look back at him.

Since no one dared to object him now, Girano finally stepped onto the altar and claimed an [Elemental Gate] with the help of [Black Crystal Wand].

Eight minus two is six; there were only six [Elemental Gates] left.

This scene made Fei wonder.

“No wonder there are people who aren’t supposed to be here like Prince Fairenton who is only an Eight Star Warrior; he must have something special on him as well.”

The ‘weak people’ were standing in this level 34 region with no issues. Although not everyone could have a Semi-God-tier Combat Weapon like Girano, they must have their trump cards.

At least Fei sensed a vague energy on Fairenton, and that energy wasn’t weaker compared with Girano’s [Black Crystal Wand]; it was probably a Semi-God-tier Combat Weapon as well.

Suddenly, a series of mumbles sounded.

A tough-looking bald man who was taller than everyone here walked out in silence and walked towards the altar; he was wearing a golden crown and was probably an emperor.

Although the masters in the area weren’t short, their heads could only reach this man’s waist! It turned out that this man was sitting down before, and that was why he didn’t catch a lot of attention. Behind him, two thin elders were following him, acting as his servants.

Although the three of them didn’t say anything, their expressions were arrogant, and it seemed like they didn’t care about others’ opinion at all. As if they were lions walking among a herd of deer, they went directly for the altar.

“Stop! You three want to occupy an [Elemental Gate]?” two masters who were level 5 or 6 mid-tier New Moon Elites gave each other a look and sneered.

They blocked the path of these three men, and one of the two masters observed that tough-looking man disrespectfully and teased, “Big guy, f*ck off! Muscle doesn’t equal strength!”

“Hehe…… Hehe…… How dare people stand out in front of the Emperor of Eindhoven? I already smelled blood……” the two elder who looked like dry-corpses laughed at the same time, and their bodies turned into black shadows. After a split second, they returned and stood behind the tough-looking man.

Bam!

The two masters who stood in their way shivered a little before collapsing onto the ground.

Their heads were smashed open like watermelons that got hammered, and their skulls were completely crushed. However, their corpses from neck down were still intact.

On the other side, the two devil-like elders revealed their hands. Their black fingernails were more than 20 centimeters long, and they looked sharper than metal blades. On them, there were white and steamy brain matters.

“Hehe…… The brains of masters sure are tasty!” the two elders laughed and licked the white brain matters off of their nails as if they were the tastiest food in the world. Almost everyone’s face paled, and a few people threw up directly.

Now, no one dared to stop these three.

The two elders were terrifying enough, and the tough-looking man who hadn’t shown his strength didn’t seem weak as well. Them three together were qualified enough to get an [Elemental Gate].

There was another moment of silence.

“Time is about up. Jessie, let’s go up as well,” Red-Robe Deacon Pellegrini walked up half a step and whispered.

After seeing that there were only five [Elemental Gates] left, the members of the Execution Team were getting anxious. The mission the Bishop of the Northern Regional Church gave them could only be completed in the level 36 region, so they couldn’t wait anymore.

“Ok.” Jessie nodded.

His handsome face looked pale at the moment. The Execution Team that was comprised of more than 30 people only had 12 people left. Except for the Red-Robe Deacon, the most powerful one was a level 2 low-tier New Moon Elite. This team only got here because Jessie tried his best to protect everyone; as a result, a lot of his Holy Power was used.

One [Elemental Gate] could only teleport five people, so it meant that seven people of the Holy Church had to stay behind. Pellegrini stabbed his golden cross wand onto the ground, and a light sphere that had a radius of about ten meters enveloped this wand; it was enough to protect the people who were going to stay here from the enormous pressure.

When deciding on who could enter the level 36 region, there were some conflicts. No one was willing to give up the opportunity of going to the heaven-like core region in the Mythical Palace. In the end, Pellegrini chose two of his henchmen and left one spot for Jessie to pick.

“Alan, come with me,” Jessie gave this spot to the weakest Holy Knight who was the only one who cared for him; at the moment, Alan only had the strength of Eight-Star.

“Ah? Me? Thank you, Mister! Thank you!” Alan was very surprised; he didn’t expect that he would be lucky enough to be picked. As his peers looked at him with envy and jealousy, this low-level Holy Knight felt like his fate was about to be turned around.

Under everyone’s respectful and fearful stare, the five people of the Holy Church walked up and occupied an [Elemental Gate].

The masters were respectful and fearful not because of their strength but of their identities. The Holy Church was a dominating force on the continent. Even though there were more powerful masters here today, no one dared to stop them. If anyone attacked them, the perpetrators would be condemned and hunt down by the Holy Church. Even Sun-Class Lords didn’t dare to fight with the Holy Church directly.

Soon, only four [Elemental Gates] were left.

It meant that half of the opportunities were gone, and the atmosphere got even tenser.

Suddenly, someone said at this intense moment, “Michel, let’s go!”

As soon as this voice sounded, an orange flame flashed by. As everyone’s vision blurred for a second, two men already appeared underneath the fifth [Elemental Gate].

One of them was shorter than 1.7 meters tall, and he had long curly hair, thick beard, and deep eye sockets; Fei couldn’t tell how strong he was. The other person was a bit taller and wearing a yellow armor. His body was tough, and he looked ugly. With those two factors combined, he looked like a dinosaur who was about to devour humans.
