Chapter 113: Before Dawn (1/2)
Chapter 113: Before Dawn
Before dark, Fei rode the big black dog back and forth and did a lot of things.
Within an hour, he was like a hard-working little bee, continuously shuffling around the city, seeing everyone he had to see, giving orders that a king must be giving, and arranging everything that needed to be noted.
When the sun set, Fei finished all the preparation he thought he needed to make, and then came a second time to the Holy See Church which he rarely visited.
In the secret chamber at the backroom of the church.
The light was already very dim, and on the black iron lighthouse on the right side were hundreds of white candles, making the atmosphere a little supressing. Fei sat in front of the white stone statue of the Trinity right after he came in, and he closed his eyes to think for half an hour. In front of him, priest Ma Zola and Knight Luciano both had a surprised look on their face, bowing in respect towards Fei. Their foreheads were covered in sweat, and they didn’t even dare to take big breaths.
Finally, Fei opened his eyes.
Rubbing his slightly painful temples, Fei looked at Zola and Luciano with a big smile and finally said, “I have some very important things that I need you two to do for me immediately!”
“Your Majesty, please tell us, and we will die trying to serve you!” The two finally sighed with relief and said.
“You don’t have to die, I just hope that you two can use the church’s channels to secretly help me acquire a batch of one-star to three-star level energy scrolls. I also need a magician’s practice notes… It must have the five energy elements and five magic elements. As for the cost of the acquisition, just take it from those 10,000 or so sorcerer stones I’ve deposited at your place… For payment, you can take 100 stones out in advance as my thanks for your effort!”
“Your Majesty! Please don’t! You’ve already rewarded us 100 sorcerer stones, which is equivalent to two year’s worth of salary. Besides, working for you is our honor, so we really can’t accept any more rewards from Your Highness!” Zola responded very quickly as he immediately kneeled under Fei’s feet. “It’s just that… according to Zenit Empire law, tier 6 subsidiary countries cannot own three-star scrolls. Although the church is not scared of Zenit Empire, it cannot freely violate its laws. May I inquire as to the reason Your Highness is purchasing them for…?”
He really didn’t dare to take Fei’s magic stones anymore.
Last time, they had already received 100 stones from Fei, which was equivalent to their total salary plus the total wealth they desperately plundered from the citizens in two years. Those 100 magician stones already made them scared to the point of sh*tting their pants, and if they took any more, then Zola would feel that they were not taking money into their pockets, but rather coupons to a faster death.
Therefore, Zola ignored all the eyes Luciano had been giving Zola and quickly refused.
This guy was also a clever man like Oleg.
Fei naturally saw the sketchy things going on between the two people, but he didn’t have time to play guessing games. After he told them their job, he directly stood up and started walking out of the room.
As he walked out, he said, “As for the use of these scrolls… you don’t have to ask more. You guys just have to secretly acquire them for me… As for the reward of 100 sorcerer stones, humph, the things I give will not come back to me. Since you guys don’t want this wealth, then just throw it into the ocean!”
Zola suddenly became dumbfounded.
“Yes, yes, yes… we will take it, take it! Your Majesty, please rest assured, we will do everything in our power to acquire the scrolls and notes you need as soon as possible…” he could only say so.
Fei went to the secret chamber’s door and suddenly thought of something. He stopped walking, turned around and asked, “Oh right, one more thing. Are you guys going to tomorrow’s ceremony?”
“Of course, we will represent the Holy Church to send the god’s blessing for your ascension!” How could they possibly not go? In Zola’s and Luciano’s eyes, the upcoming crowning ceremony at the Pinnacle of Eastern Mountain was definitely another God-given opportunity to suck up to Fei.
“I will give you guys a little suggestion. If you want to live, then you better not go!”
After Fei finished, he directly left the Church.
Zola and Luciano all stood at the same place, looking at each other. They didn’t know what King Alexander meant. Could it be that His Majesty did not want to see their not-so-handsome faces during the ceremony, or… Zola thought with his head down, but when he remembered Fei’s facial expression when he said it, Zola suddenly realized something.
…
After leaving the church, Fei directly flew back to Chambord City’s palace.
The dark night gradually engulfed Chambord City. When the palace was quiet and the beautiful fiancée Angela and blonde loli Emma were smiling in their sweet dreams, Fei sat on the King’s Throne quietly by himself, waiting for the dawn’s arrival.
After midnight, Fei had another four hours to enter the Diablo World.
He entered [Assassin Mode], used half an hour’s time and beat the first map’s last two mission.
After completing everything, his assassin character reached level 17.
Now, Fei’s [Assassin Mode]’s battle strength in real life was around the intermediate 3-star level. If coupled with the variety of stealthy skills, then maybe he could go against beginner 4-star elites. Although the chance to beat them was small, it would be very easy to run away.
Then, Fei exited [Assassin Mode]. In front of the 3-D holographic projection screen, he chose the last class he didn’t touch – Amazon. Fortunately, after Fei selected the Amazon class, he got a change of outfit and didn’t actually turn into a tranny.
On the Rogue continent, in the dark night, the crazy massacre began.
All the monsters and demons cried and fell under the arrows of the first male Amazon in history.
After two and a half hours, the time limit for the day arrived, and Fei left the Diablo World.
