HAIL THE KING !
Chapter 73.2: The Means of a King (2)
Secrets about the Mythical Ruins, the history of Chambord and the death of Prince Mateja-Kezman of the Eindhoven Empire will be forever buried in the Iron Prison – Water Prison. No one will know except Fei. No one could blame Fei's cruelty. In the Azeroth Continent that followed the "rule of the forest", Fei could not allow himself to be negligent, not even once.
"We may be similar, but luck is not by your side. ”
Fei picked up a bottle of 【Mana Potion】 and gulped some down his throat. He has to fill up the mana that runs out when he uses 【Find Potion】. Then, he pressed his palm on the corpse of Mage Elvis and roared lightly and used the ability of 【Find Potion】 again.
"Bump!"
A voice from heaven sounded in Fei's ears.
"Yes!"
Fei. Another bottle of green 【Hulk Potion】 appeared in the air; it shone a mysterious light. A weak newborn-like spirit energy surrounded the bottle and gave Fei a feeling of intimacy.
Fei put this precious 【Hulk Potion】 bottle back into his storage room on his belt and thought for a moment. He switched to Sorcerer Mode and shot some 【Fire Bolts】 into corpses lying on the ground and bone fragments left behind by skeletal warriors. The remains were burned to ashes, destroying the last bit of evidence.
After the corpses were burned, Fei's eyes landed on the magic armor and some weapons and magic devices belonging to the silver masked knight. Except for that, in the ashes, Elvis's storage ring was not destroyed by fire; it was still shiny, giving Fei an unspeakable temptation.
Fei knew that with Elvis' strength and background, there must be a lot of treasures and precious items in his storage ring. Moreover, the silver-masked knight was a noble of a tier 4 Empire, so his love and belongings should be precious. If he were to reward them to the leaders in Chambord, the strength of Chambord would increase. Even if he did not distribute it to the others and sell it on the black market, he could get a lot of useful resources in return.
“But ...... it's too dangerous . ”
Elvis and the prince had many statuses. Their stuff will attract a lot of attention. If someone found out about them and traced their origin back to Chambord, many incidents would be instantly revealed. Neither Fei nor Chambord would be able to bear this level of risk and danger. Fei had to take all kinds of dangers right off the bat and do everything he could to give Chambord more time to grow stronger. Fei was not strong enough to face the Level 4 Eindhoven Empire.
Fei felt his heart break.
But finally, he decided and fired a ton of 【Fire Bolts】 into rings, armor, and items. He burned them in flames and tried to crush these precious items into a pile of trash to eliminate any possibility.
However –
"Eh? Not afraid of fire? "
Fei surprisingly discovered that although the flames covered and buried the rings, armor, and items inside, after a few minutes had passed, there was no sign of them melting or being destroyed. The blue magic power still surrounded the armor, and the ring still shone a white light. No matter how the flames burned, they still maintained their shape.
“It looks like the treasure is really a treasure, but what should I do? These things will be the cause of disaster ...... ”Fei tried 【Es】 Sea and 【Filled Sea】; he even switched back to Necromancer Mode and tried to destroy the item using his death energy, he said, but it's no use. He also wanted to try to smash them into small pieces, but after thinking about the various situations that might happen if the magic items were shattered into pieces and the magic power within them was released, he said, he doesn't want to do that anymore. After a while, he finally put them all in his storage belt and decided to destroy it later when he became stronger.
But before he leaves, there is one more thing he should do – test Warden Oleg.
"Oleg, let's go in!" Shouted Fei.
Warden Oleg hurried a few steps. Once he arrived, he surprisingly learned that all the prisoners had disappeared. All that remained were three sets of iron chains and five piles of black ash. He knew that the three mercenaries and the magician were all killed, and their corpses were burned beside the silver masked man's corpse. He suddenly felt crushed and was even more afraid of the cruel young king's heart. He did not even dare to take a deep breath as he stood behind Fei timidly.
"Oleg, tell me, when you rushed in earlier, what did you see?" Ask Fei causally.
But Oleg on the other hand was surprised by the question and started sweating like a madman. He thought that Fei wanted to kill him, so he knelt down and pleaded, “Your Majesty, please forgive me. I beg for your mercy! I don't see anything. I just ..... only saw His Majesty study the carvings and lines on the stone walls.... Please forgive me! ”
Fei looked at the trembling Oleg as if he was having a seizure and smiled. "Wake up, when did I say I'd kill you?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Oleg did not dare to refuse Fei's orders. He stood up as his body trembled in fear.
"Your Majesty – Gods of War created a miracle and restored my intelligence four days ago. In these four days, too many situations happened. I gained a rough understanding of the situation in Chambord over the past three years. Bazzer's evil conspiracy abused his power and threw the kingdom into chaos and persecuted my citizens. Former Military Judge Conca also helped him in the conspiracy. Bazzer escaped and is now being pursued, and the latter was executed by me. You, Oleg, helped Bazzer in carrying out some of his evil plans in the last three years. Even if you die a thousand times, it is not enough to quell public anger ... ”.
Oleg started shivering even more as he heard Fei's words. As if she was walking on a rope between skyscrapers, she felt her heart would burst out of her chest while her body was stored in a refrigerator. When he heard the last sentence, he knelt to the ground and began to beg for mercy again.
Fei looked at him and continued, "I'm not a brutal killer. You followed me to the stone bridge that day to fight our enemies; you killed forty-five enemies and injured yourself while saving four lives of your friend. All of these things I clearly observed. It is considered as you redeem yourself, so I do not punish you for what you did before. This is my governing principle about the kingdom. Your colleagues like Brook, Pierce, Drogba have all received great rewards, and you are the only one who stays in the same position without getting anything in return. Have you ever complained about it? "
"Your Majesty, Oleg will not dare to do that. Brook went to jail this morning to give me a head and give me time to prepare and get rid of all the bad things in prison to make up for all the wrongs I did. Your Majesty is friendly and I am very grateful. I am willing to give up everything I have to help Your Majesty, even if I have to bleed to death! "
“Eh, as long as you understand. "Fei said lightly," Right now in Chambord, Brook is intelligent, but because of his integrity, he lacks the necessary roundness. The likes of Pierce and Drogba were all great warriors on the battlefield, but their heads were not that good. Uncle Lampard hates political affairs and Uncle Bast is bound by other duties. Chambord just lacked someone like you who was shameless, slimy, cunning who could do the dirty work for me. I have the intention to use and depend on you, but ... ”.
Fei quietly stopped for a few seconds here.
Oleg knew that Fei wanted him. He patted his chest and swore, “To the God of War, I, Oleg are willing to be the most loyal hyena of His Majesty Alexander. I will be on the front line wherever he points. If my words and deeds do not match, I will go to hell when I die and face torment for eternity. ”
“I am not a person who strongly believes in oath ....” Fei continued, “I emphasize practical action. There are a few things I need you to do for me as soon as possible. I'll wait for your performance. ”
"Please order me, Your Majesty. I'll do my best!"
