Novel Full Chapter 841: Deemed as the Emperor
This person’s body was not giving off any murderous intent, nor did he look like he had much confidence, but the clothes on him looked very luxurious and he was an A-tier aptitude user. Qin Feng could see that the people in this realm, or at the very least this ruined city of this kingdom, had well-off lives.
However, due to this the person carried himself with a hint of arrogance and disdain.
“What is it?”
If they were not his enemy, then they were naturally something else, so Qin Feng had to ask.
When the man saw that Qin Feng was not raising his blade or releasing his fire ability to attack him. He immediately bucked up, straightening his back and slightly raised up his chin. “I am a member of the elder parliament of this country. I am Gong Ge. Now that everyone else is dead, I have automatically taken over as the head elder. Your strength is just a tad bit weaker, no way you’d be able to compare to His Majesty. However, you’ve gained the recognition from the Divine Flame Imperial Robe. While the scepter has been destroyed, I deem you our newest emperor!”
The man said reluctantly, as if he was being forced to announce Qin Feng.
Of course, the phrase ‘You are not strong’ was something that was incessantly lacking in conscience when said out loud!
If Qin Feng was not strong then why did this man not try to replace him immediately?
Qin Feng was a B-tier on the surface but his strength was absolutely villainous and unreasonable.
Such a person slaughtering a hundred people in one go, would that not be enough to prove his strength?
Qin Feng then sneered and said, “Since I’m not strong enough, what’s the point of you acknowledging me? And when did I say I needed your recognition?”
He glanced at the man, and this gaze made head elder Gong Ge feel like he had been seen through.
“If you can be your own head elder, then you can go ahead and do it on your own. Why are you looking for me? Is it because you’re scared now? Afraid that a Gorefiend would pop out of nowhere to kill you so you want to cling onto some solid ground so you don’t drop? Yet, how could I hang around such a terrible team-up with an attitude like yours? You’re being ridiculous!”
Qin Feng’s words pierced through the other’s ruse.
Gong Ge was thick-skinned, but he suddenly looked flushed and could only sternly say, “You can’t do this, if you don’t want to admit it then take off the Divine Robe. It belongs to us!”
“Yours? Alright!” Qin Feng said, actually starting to take off the Divine Flame Imperial Robe.
He proceeded to casually toss it toward Gong Ge’s direction.
The moment the Divine Flame Imperial Robe left Qin Feng’s grasp it immediately burst into a raging inferno and scorching temperatures rushed over as if standing next to the surface of the Sun, and their surroundings were covered by terrifying flames.
“Aaaaieee!”
Gong Ge gave a high-pitched scream and fled a hundred meters away in a fit of panic.
The Divine Flame Imperial Robe did not drop to the ground, instead it floated in the air as if suspended by some kind of invisible frame, waiting for someone to put it on!
In this collapsed realm, in this ruined kingdom, nobody could wear it anymore.
Moreover, upon seeing this, Qin Feng figured out who had probably obtained the Divine Flame Imperial Robe before his rebirth.
‘The Divine Flame Imperial Robe is a fire element rune equipment, a super god armor that has its own special attunement conditions. So the person that obtains it has to be an S-tier. Among the Dark Coalition in North Africa, that could only be the Hellfire God Aysahn!
It was unknown if that person would come across the North African Alliance and what kind of battle would ensue.
Qin Feng did not really know much about that news, but he understood that the following events would undoubtedly be changed with his participation.
At this time, he was unaware of what was about to happen in the future but he would not be letting go of his first-come-first-serve ideology.
“What? Didn’t I give it to you? Don’t you want it?” Qin Feng chuckled coldly.
Gong Ge looked at the Divine Flame Imperial Robe and knew that this object had basically become a hot potato.
“The Divine Robe has already recognized its owner. Doing that is useless. Besides that, you’ve taken our kingdom’s treasure. You… you can’t go, you must protect me!” Gong Ge said in the end, unable to say anything else. He had made himself clear, he had come to Qin Feng for defense.
This realm was too dangerous, more dangerous than he had expected.
Especially now, who knew what was lurking in the dark, and whether or not Gorefiends would appear. An A-tier Gorefiend was not something that he would dare take on alone.
Qin Feng’s smile had become more of a mocking smirk, but he kept his sharp tongue to himself.
He raised a hand and took back the Divine Flame Imperial Robe before saying, “If you want me to protect you, then sure. After all, I’m a mercenary, just pay me first!”
He lifted a finger, levitating a crystal clear coin made out of compressed power credits. “This kind of money, 100 million and I’ll protect you for a day!”
100 million was indeed not too much, but just for one day this price was worthwhile!
If the price was too high then he was worried that the other might not be able to actually pay, who knew what the prices were in this plane?
Gong Ge’s eyes lit up and his gaze fell onto the treasure trove again. As soon as he shifted his eyes he opened his mouth to say, “You can take all of these gems, that’ll be enough to protect me for a year…”
Qin Feng flicked the coin that was called a gem toward Gong Ge, he infused it with internal force and caused it to soar by at extreme speed. As it broke the sound barrier, Gong Ge was shocked and quickly dodged out of the way, yelling, “What are you doing!?”
He sneered, “Stopping you from daydreaming. This isn’t your money. It’s already mine. If you have money, then take it out, if you don’t then I don’t care!”
These things were buried underneath the earth, if it were not for the old man blowing himself up and for Qin Feng using his earth ability to attack earlier it would not have been discovered. Such a trove would have been lost at the battle of the Styx.
Therefore, the fact that this man wanted to use that money as payment for his own protection was really foolish.
The man gritted his teeth, but he knew it was useless to try these tricks so he could only begrudgingly take out his own money to pay Qin Feng.
Just when the two had reached an accord, a crack appeared in the sky again.
This crack began to leak out water that carried a salty pang with it.
This was not river water. This was sea water!
Not only that, there were countless sea beasts that were beginning to appear from it!
“This… this is too dangerous. We need to move! If we don’t, then… the water is too useful for the Gorefiends!”
At this time, Bai Li was shifting through all the treasures as she glared at Gong Ge. “Why panic?”
When she turned her head, her face was full of regret. “Unfortunately, it’s too late. If not, we could have taken these sealing stones away and turned them into prisons!”
