Hail the King
Page 561Chapter 530: Dare to Even Touch My Finger?
The Bylaw Enforcement Officers and the Saint Seiyas of Chambord were standing behind Angela and Emma, and so were Blacky, Thug, Chick, and Hooligan.
On the other side, there were more than 40 people who were either priests or Holy Knights of the Holy Church. At the moment they were sneering and looking at the people of Chambord coldly.
The person who just spoke was the person who had the highest status among them. The red and black stripped robe meant that this mid-aged man was at least someone who held the position of Vice-Bishop and up in the church in Dual-Flags City.
From what he said, it sounded like he wanted to take Thug, Chick, and Hooligan away.
“Your Highness, I think you are mistaking. They aren’t the Godly Creatures of the Holy Church. They had just hatched from fossil eggs a few days ago. Many people witnessed it.” Angela was surprised as she didn’t understand why the people of the Holy Church would say that. Therefore, she tried to explain the origin of the three creatures to this priest patiently.
“Humph! Shut up! Full of lies! I said they are the properties of the Holy Church! Do you dared to question the judgment of the gods?” the mid-aged man said with greed in his eyes.
At the moment, this man was so excited that his body was shivering a little.
“Damn it! This is unexpected! The dragons that are said to be extinct appeared in Dual-Flags City!” he thought.
As soon as this man saw the three creatures, he started to observe them. He had once read a book in the library of the Holy Church that walked about the legends, described what dragons looked like, and had their illustrations.
After looking at the three creatures, he was sure that they were the legendary Fire Red Dragon, Frost Blue Dragon, and Metal Green Dragon. He thought that the gods had just given him an enormous gift!
Dragons! When was the last time that a dragon appeared on the continent? When was the last time that a Dragon Knight existed?
He was sure that if he could capture these three dragons and send them to the headquarter of the Northern Region Church, the Bishop of the Regional Church, Platini, would be very pleased. By then, he could even become the Bishop over a big empire!
After thinking about that, this mid-aged man got even more excited. He sneered and said, “How dare you steal the Godly Creatures that were being nurtured by the Holy Church and show them in public? I don’t think you guys need to go anywhere. The males will be arrested and made into mine slaves, and the females will be sent to the Choir and sing for the gods!”
“You are not reasonable at all. You are saying that these creatures are the properties of the Holy Church, but can anyone prove that? You can call them and see if they answer back,” Emma opened her mouth and said in a sarcastic tone.
He had been operating and behaving this way for a long time now. He and his peers were used to justifying their behaviors in the name of the gods. The fact that others were mad but didn’t dare to say anything satisfied their sick minds
Due to the outbreak of this conflict, more and more people surrounded them.
Soon, more than 100 people circled them and murmured among themselves while pointing their fingers.
“Those bullies of the Holy Church again? Did you see him? The person leading the group is named Barton. He is the Vice-Bishop of the church in Dual-Flags City. He is arrogant, violent, and vicious. Except for the Bishop, no one else dares to mess with him. Which poor soul got targeted by this devil?”
“Sheesh! Lower your voice! Do you want to die? If Barton hears you say bad things about him, he will say that you are staining the gods, and your entire family will be burned alive on the fire crosses!”
“Huh? Wait…… it seems like the warriors of Chambord are standing up against Barton…… They are King Alexander’s subordinates……”
“No way! Is Barton daring enough to mess around with His Majesty?”
“This devil who should be boiled alive in the hell is such a bad egg! He is messing around King Alexander…… His Majesty might be in trouble. Unlike the nobles in Dual-Flags City who were conquered by His Majesty, the Holy Church is an organization that even the Royal Family of Zenit don’t dare to mess with…… Let’s just hope that King Alexander will be alright.”
“Hey, don’t be so negative. The outcome might be different. King Alexander is a hero! He must have ways of dealing with Barton. Just watch……”
The residents of Dual-Flags City didn’t dare to get too close. They formed little circles and talked about this incident.
They were aware of the recklessness and the unreasonableness of the members of the Holy Church.
During normal times, they would use all kinds of ways to get money from the residents. But in this war with Jax, they didn’t say anything and remained neutral. That disappointed a lot of people who were hoping that they would stop the war.
Now, when the war was pausing a little, these members of the Holy Church jumped out and tried to mess with King Alexander and his subordinates who saved the city. There was no way that the residents of Dual-Flags City weren’t angry.
Vice-Bishop Barton sensed how the people in the area were looking at him with disdain. He sneered and glanced around, and everyone looked down and avoided staring right at this vicious and cruel priest in the eyes.
“This b*stard!” white steam came out of Drogba’s nostrils as he was infuriated, and he was about to step forward and punch Barton.
However, Robbin who was beside him pulled him back.
Since the Holy Church was a mammoth on the continent and could make any other force reconsider the consequences of fighting with them, the members of the Holy Church became more and more arrogant. Robbin was one of the less impulsive warriors, so he stopped Drogba, fearing that this strongman might cause a ton of trouble for the King.
“Hahaha! Big guy, come at me! Come on; I’m standing right here. Who dares to even touch my finger?” Barton saw that and provoked proudly.
“What if I, the King, am daring enough to touch your finger?”
At this moment, a cold voice sounded from afar. Then, a silver dash of light flashed by, and a muscular and handsome figure appeared in the area after everyone’s vision blurred.
The King of Chambord!
An invisible pressure dispersed into the area and even the air became denser.
“Your Majesty!” the warriors of Chambord such as Drogba got excited.
Angela and Emma also looked relieved. Since King Alexander was here, they all knew that the issue was going to be resolved.
“It is Mr. Alexander!”
“Mr. Alexander is here! He saved Dual-Flags City……”
“It is my honor to meet His Majesty! Hail the King!”
The residents of Dual-Flags City who were in the area reacted quickly. Some people instantly identified Fei, and a series of gasps sounded. Most people weren’t expecting to see the King here today, so a lot of them got excited. Some people even directly kneeled and chanted ‘Hail the King.’ The atmosphere of the place instantly got heated.
After seeing this, Barton’s pupils contracted. Although he was a member of the Holy Church and shouldn’t be fearful of a little king, he became a little alerted after seeing Fei. For some reason, he sensed danger!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three more dashes of lights landed on the ground.
They were the Right Deacon of Black-Cloth Shrine, Batistuta, young priest Jessie, and Holy Knight Alan.
A series of gasped sounded. The residents in Dual-Flags City thought that masters of the Holy Church were here to support Barton.
After seeing the arrival of these three, Vice-Bishop of the church in Dual-Flags City released. He could tell that they were members of the Holy Church, and Batistuta was mighty.
Barton thought that he had back up, and the fear that appeared in his mind instantly disappeared.
He walked up a few steps, raised his head, and looked down at Fei with a provocative expression.
He sneered and laughed proudly to try to reduce Fei’s presence, “King of Chambord? I know about you. Young man, it makes sense that you are proud. After all, you have some achievements. However, you need to make sure you know who you are talking to. I’m the Vice-Bishop of the church in Dual-Flags City, and I’m here to manage Dual-Flags City by order of the gods. If you dare to even touch my finger, you…… Ah!”
Pia!
A crisp noise sounded.
Then, a series of bone-crackling noises sounded.
As people watched in surprise, the King of Chambord slapped Vice-Bishop Barton in the face, and a mouthful of blood shot out of Barton’s mouth alongside some white teeth. Half of his face collapsed and concaved in, and his body flew backward like a broken sandbag.
