Chapter 743: I’m Leaving
After reading all the intelligence reports, Fei felt a bit anxious.
All five regions of the Continent fell into chaos. Clearly, there was more to it than there seemed to be.
Although the intelligence reports didn’t say anything specific, and all the information on them were just simple facts, Fei felt like a mysterious and powerful dark force was pushing everything forward and stirring up wars on the Continent.
It was unbelievable! What kind of a force was able to instigate wars on this Continent that was so vast that even gods had a hard time going around?
Could it really be gods and demons who were behind all of this?
Fei slowly closed the last intelligence report that was on the table and fell into a moment of silence. It seemed like he was thinking about something that was complicated.
After more than ten minutes, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, “There wouldn’t be intact eggs left if the basket is broken. In order to protect Chambord and the Empire, just defeating the Leonians and the Ormondians aren’t enough… It looks like I need to go out!”
“Go out… Your Majesty, you mean…”
“For a long time, we have only stayed in this region of the Continent, not knowing what is going on outside. If we stay like this and don’t do anything until the flames of wars from the other regions spread here, it will be too late. I have a feeling that Chambord will face mighty and evil enemies. Before they come, I need to go out and check out the empires in all five regions, understanding their culture and strength. We can only stay invincible if we know what we are dealing with. Also, it is good for me to travel around and see the world. I can meet other legendary masters, make some new friends, and temper myself. That is the only way for me to reach another realm!”
Fei stood up and glanced at the Capital. He knew that if he continued to stay in this region and didn’t check out the rest of the world, he was going to be left behind by this continent and this era. After all, a lot of things were happening.
The Zenit Empire was like a little pond; what kind of waves could there be? How big could fishes get in here?
Fei had been in this world for more than a year now, and his strength and Chambord’s power had both increased drastically compared with a year ago, and it was about time for him to go out and check out this fascinating world.
Modric lowered his head and thought for a moment before saying, “Then, please allow me to organize it for you, Your Majesty.”
Fei shook his head and said, “No need. I’m just going to wander around the Continent, and there isn’t any set route. Also, most of the [Letter Office]’s forces are underground, and almost no one knows about the connection between the [Letter Office] and Chambord. If you make plans, sensitive people might notice something; it will hinder the [Letter Office]’s future growth! If I do need the [Letter Office] for anything, I will contact the local managers.”
“I got it. Your Majesty, don’t worry. I will handle this.” Modric thought about something and nodded.
“Eh, the atmosphere inside the Empire is quite strange, and a lot of undercurrents are at work. Although I stunned a lot of people yesterday, the ones who are ambitious will jump out and cause trouble after I leave. Therefore, you will have a lot of work to do. I won’t keep you here any longer.” Fei took out a storage ring that he prepared ahead of time and gave it to Modric.
He continued, “These are the things that I prepared for you. Take it and used the items effectively!”
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Modric took the storage ring and put it on his finger carefully.
The people who had been around the king for while all knew that the items that the king gifted were always unique and special. It didn’t matter if it were items or secret scrolls; they were all mystical.
Although Modric hadn’t been around Fei for a long time, he knew this clearly, and he was delighted to receive this gift from Fei.
Then, Fei looked at the [Cold Blood Nine Eagles] carefully, and he switched to the Paladin Mode. He activated his skills and sent a few streaks of golden energies into their bodies.
The [Cold Blood Nine Eagles] were surprised at first, but then they were overjoyed as elated expressions appeared on their faces. They sensed that the old hidden injuries which had been in their bodies for many years were all healed after those golden energies went through.
It was magical!
The power of Sun-Class Lords was profound.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!” The nine masters all kneeled and expressed their gratitude.
Fei smiled and said, “While working for the [Letter Office], you had to fight with a lot of masters and sustained these injuries. Since this is our first encounter, I don’t have any gifts prepared for you as the big boss; healing these injuries for you is something within reason. After leaving the mountain, you can each get one godly herb from Modric; that will be the gifts from me to you guys!”
After that exchange, Modric bowed at Fei again before putting on the silver mask. Then, he and the [Cold Blood Nine Eagles] left reluctantly under the lead of a member of Martial Saint Mountain, disappearing into afar.
Fei looked at them and pondered.
The [Cold Blood Nine Eagles] were the ones whom Modric chose to bring up Martial Saint Mountain, so they were all loyal. Therefore, Fei didn’t want to avoid them when he was talking about sensitive topics with Modric.
However, these people’s strengths were much more powerful than Modric’s. If their strengths increased more, their ambitions might grow as well. Therefore, Fei left spiritual seals on them silently when he was curing their injuries. If anything happened, Fei would be able to detect it even if he were hundreds of kilometers away.
He stood by the edge of the cliff for a long time, and the cold breeze that blew against his face made his mind very clear.
While looking through the intelligence reports that [Old Man] Zolasc collected, the idea of traveling around the Continent grew stronger and got more apparent in Fei’s mind.
The [Letter Office]’s power was far from reaching deep into the five regions of the Continent, so the information that it collected was broad and not specific, only describing the rough trends.
The truth could only be discovered by Fei himself.
The golden skeleton that resided in [One Sword]’s body was something that had been troubling Fei for a few days now.
After it got away, Fei didn’t know what trouble it would bring in the future.
Fei could clearly sense the strong hatred that the golden skeleton had toward him, and it seemed like that demon had a special intention toward Chambord. If Fei weren’t wrong, it would become back to Chambord once it could find a new body to possess.
“What exactly is it? Could it be that the wars which are happening are related to it? In terms of time, it escaped from the Mythical Altar exactly about half a year ago, and that was when the Chaos Era arrived…”
Fei shook his head and suddenly punched out.
A golden dragon-like energy fist dashed into the sky and merged into this space; it didn’t cause any significant changes.
However, if anyone above the realm of peak Moon-Class saw this, they would discover a crystal-like, transparent energy flame burning about 100 meters away from the cliff. It contained great power, and it didn’t disperse into the air.
Fist Spiritual Spatial Seal!
Fei concealed a portion of his Sun-Class strength into this space, making it stay there for a long time. Therefore, if enemies attacked St. Petersburg, got into the Capital, and triggered these invisible seals, they would be instantly turned into dust by the insane amount of energy in the crystals.
After punching out once, Fei didn’t stop.
He then punched out 21 times and sealed a vast amount of golden energy into the area around Martial Saint Mountain quietly.
