Hail the King

Chapter 1218: The Beginning of the Partnership (Part One)

People like General Liu in the monitoring room were already stunned to their cores.

The scenes that were shown on the screen completely went beyond the laws of physics of this world, and they were also unimaginable to everyone. Perhaps people could only see such scenes in fiction novels.

The orcs who had giant bodies looked like monsters in Journey to the West, and the warriors were dressed in fancy golden armor, looking like medieval knights. The giant metal weapons that these foreigners held made the people in the monitoring room temporarily lose the ability to think.

[TL Note: Journey to the West is a Chinese novel published in the 16th century during the Ming dynasty and attributed to Wu Cheng’en. It is one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature. The key character in it is the monkey king.]

Those high-level officials who said that they were going to command and force Fei to serve them all shut their mouths at this moment.

Those people weren’t fools. Seeing these strange warriors and ‘monsters’ single-kneeling before Fei, they instantly realized that Fei wasn’t a simple figure and perhaps had prestigious status. Such a person who had superpowers and superior status wouldn’t be commanded by them.

The good thing was that these people’s nerves were now extremely tough.

The sudden arrival of the bugs through the spatial wormholes put the world into a catastrophe. It was already enough to challenge people’s imaginations. Now, to these people, the immortals and monsters’ appearances weren’t completely unacceptable. [Support the translators and read on Noodletown Translations for free.]

This world was completely changed; the order got messed up.

“It seems like we need to readjust our thinking process,” General Liu sighed.

Everyone had a strange feeling about this. They felt like they were frogs that were at the bottom of a water well. When they looked up at the sky, there was only a small circular region, and they were ignorant of many things.

Just as they felt proud of themselves, they suddenly realized that they were at the bottom of the universe. The guns, cannons, planes, and missiles that they were proud of couldn’t defend against such ‘immortal techniques’.

The people in the monitoring room quickly made a decision.

Then, about a dozen people led by old General Liu got out of the underground structure and came to the meeting room.

This was the first face-to-face meeting between the two sides.

“Everyone…” Even though General Liu had experienced all kinds of situations before, he didn’t know how to address these strange figures before him. He looked at Fei and smiled before reaching out his hand. “Little Brother…”

[TL Note: This is a polite way for an elderly to address someone younger in Chinese culture.]

Before General Liu could finish, Torres who was Fei’s guard shouted, “Reckless! You are standing before our emperor! How dare you not kneel and greet him?”

Seeing these weak people were so reckless that they tried to shake His Majesty’s hand, Torres instantly shouted and unleashed a bit of his strength.

Torres was one of the 12 gold saints, and he had reached the Demi-Godly Realm. However, he was still loyally acting as Fei’s guard.

Old General Liu and other high-level officials turned ashen-faced; they felt like a giant mountain was crashing toward them and making the building shake.

Torres’ shout made them feel like thunder exploded beside their ears, and an indescribable fear instantly engulfed them.

It felt like ants were facing an angry holy dragon.

“Don’t be rude.” Fei quickly waved his hand, and a streak of energy rushed out and canceled out Torres’ presence before it could reach General Liu and others.
