Hail the King

Chapter 724 - Chase

Chapter 724: Chase (Part One)

“Invincible Emperor Fist!”

Fei punched out, and the golden energy fist dashed forward like a meteor while drawing a long tail.

“Hahaha! Idiot! Die! Fire Supreme Fist!”

The ‘Black Ape’ saw that the king stop mimicking his combat techniques, and he was secretly thrilled. He knew how terrifying Fei’s copying ability was; it was on the level of god!

Since his opponent ditched the unique and powerful ability after the provocation, the ‘Black Ape’ felt like he obtained a rare opportunity.

Therefore, he instantly used his most powerful technique, the Fire Supreme Fist.

The vague image of a god of fire appeared behind him. This god was burly and wearing a fancy traditional robe, looking like a supreme entity in the world and making people fearful of his existence.

As the ‘Black Ape’ punched out, dashes of lights shot out of this god’s eyes from the image, and the god in this image bent his arms, raised his hands, and punched down. It looked like this strike was about to tear space and destroy the world.

This was the most powerful punch of this ‘Black Ape’.

Boom!

The golden energy fist of [Invincible Emperor Fist] collided with the fist of the god in the image accurately.

Huge explosive energy waves expanded and dispersed into the area.

Terrifying dark clouds appeared and covered the sky before expanding even further, and dust on the ground merged with dark-red energy clouds before ascending into the air, looking as if a huge beautiful yet lethal flower appeared in this world.

For a moment, this was the most eye-catching thing in the region.

All the people around the battlefield watched this pretty and dangerous flower as they held onto their breath, and the nervousness that they were feeling couldn’t be described with words.

To the people of the Leon Empire, even though the person who was representing Leon in the battle was their legendary Prince Gomi that never suffered a defeat since his uprise, this Zenitian who was fighting with him brought them too much shock and threw them into desperation again and again. They suddenly felt like the victory wasn’t that easy to obtain.

To the people of the Zenit Empire, although the King of Chambord was famous for his power and recklessness, they weren’t entirely sure if he could still hold up under the pressure from a high-level empire after consecutive battles. They were concerned about his stamina and energy level.

When people are emotionally invested, they will lose their composure and ability to reason.

Therefore, under the cover of the huge dark clouds, the outcome of the battle already appeared under everyone’s nose.

A dash of black light suddenly flashed away like a bolt of lightning, and a person was flying to the back of the troops of Leon with a shocked and terrified expression on his face, looking like a defeated dog that had its tail between its legs.

This person was the ‘Black Ape’ Gomi, the legendary prince of the Leon Empire.

As soon as Gomi and Fei’s fists collided, this prince knew that he still underestimated his opponent.

He realized that this handsome and black-haired opponent was even more terrifying when not copying his techniques. The amount of power in that golden energy fist was far beyond Gomi’s expectation, and so was Fei’s realm.

Therefore, although Gomi still had some trump cards that he didn’t reveal yet, he knew that those trump cards would be useless since his opponent could crush all of them and even kill him using that mighty power.

Therefore, this prince made up his mind and quickly escaped.

Although escaping was shameful, he could die if he didn’t.

He could still try to redeem himself after being shamed, but he would lose everything if he died.

The decisiveness of this prince was far beyond the people in his age group.

Fei didn’t expect the arrogant and showy prince of the Leon Empire to escape instantly. After all, his opponent wasn’t really injured from that collision.

Therefore, when Fei quickly reacted to this situation, his opponent already fled away.

However, the king wasn’t going to let such a powerful enemy, who posed a real threat to Zenit, get away.

Fei instantly dashed forward and chased after Prince Gomi without hesitation, and his afterimages looked like they tore an opening in the sky.

No one anticipated this drastic change in the situation.

The people who reacted first were the Leonians. Although the escape of their legendary Prince Gomi caused their morale to plummet, many magic arrows were shot out of the campsites of Leon under the orders of the commanders. Like a big herd of hungry locusts, the arrows dashed toward Fei who was chasing after Gomi.

Chapter 724: Chase (Part Two)

The magic equipment and devices of the Leon Empire far exceeded the level of Zenit.

However, these powerful arrows that were enough to kill ordinary Moon-Class Elites couldn’t even get close to Fei’s body. Before getting within ten meters of Fei, they were all bounced back as if they ran into an invisible metal defense wall.

While chasing after Prince Gomi, Fei didn’t show mercy to the invaders. As he dashed forward in the sky, he punched down at the ground repeatedly. His terrifying force bombarded the ground as if he were a heavy bomber, creating massive explosions and energy waves in the well-organized formations and campsites of Leon and messing up the troops of Leon.

There were quite a few powerful yet loyal masters in the troops of Leon. Even though they knew that they were no match for Fei, they leaped into the air and tried to stop Fei by using their bodies to save their prince.

However, they were turned into clouds of blood mist by the mere residual energies that were a result of the battle between Fei and Gomi.

Anyone who was below the realm of Moon-Class couldn’t get involved in the battle of the real masters, and they would instantly die if they were more than 100 meters above the ground.

“All of you! Go up and stop him!”

Prince Gomi of Leon was stunned by Fei’s punch, and he no longer wanted to battle. Seeing that the distance between him and Fei getting smaller and smaller, he knew that he couldn’t get away like this.

He landed on the ground decisively and ran in the formations of his troops. He was using the soldiers and commanders of Leon as meat shields, and he ordered the troops of Leon to use their lives to make up the difference between strengths to stop Fei’s chase.

He was literally asking the ordinary soldiers to die for him.

Under his order, the ordinary soldiers and commanders of Leon all charged up fearlessly, using their bodies as a thick defense-line between Prince Gomi and the King of Chambord.

Using the human sea attack against a master was a cruel strategy.

In theory, even if a Sun-Class Lord had to use his or her warrior energies or magic energies non-stop, there would be a point in which they would turn weak and be tired out. However, if that were measured with the lives of ordinary soldiers, millions of them would have to be sacrificed before that would happen.

However, Fei was a barbarian; he used pure physical strength and not warrior energy, and he had potions to recover his stamina instantly. Therefore, he wasn’t afraid of the human sea attack.

Fei ignored all the soldiers of Leon who were charging at him with weapons. He chased after that ‘Black Ape’, and everything that was within ten meters of him was turned into blood mist by his invisible and invincible physical strength.

A path of blood instantly formed, and Fei’s speed didn’t slow down one bit.

Roars, screams, gasps, and scolds all sounded at the same time.

The two super masters disrupted the strictly controlled and orderly formations of the troops of Leon as one of them tried to flee while the other one chased, turning things chaotic and disorderly.

This was the effect of super masters in war.

The legendary Prince Gomi of Leon tried to get away, but Fei chased after him tightly. All the troops of Leon moved around like a pot of boiling water, getting chaotic, but they couldn’t save their prince from Fei’s chase.

Seeing Fei getting closer and closer, the ‘Black Ape’ got more and more anxious. His opponent’s death chase terrified him, and that sharp murderous spirit was already poking the back of his heart.

Since no master on the side of Leon could stop the powerful Fei, Gomi turned his eyes as a wicked smile appeared on his face. After a split-second pause in the air, he dashed toward the troops of the Ormond Empire.

“There should be powerful masters on the side of Ormond who can stop this damn Zenitian!” he thought; he was planning to throw this hot potato onto the lap of Ormondians.

...

-On the main gate of St. Petersburg-

Zenit’s God of War Arshavin was seeing all this with a magic telescope, and he already had a plan. With an overjoyed expression on his face, he sent out a list of commands.

The main gate of St. Petersburg that was tightly shut all this time opened.

The cavalry of Zenit who were all fully-armed dashed out of the city like a wave of black flood, and the clip-clop noises resonated in the sky. In a uniformed formation, they dashed into the troops of Leon that were in chaos and attacked mercilessly!

The counterattack of the Zenitians began!
