Chapter 901: Hero’s Power
The Audience stood Aghast!
Every single member of the audience was left in astonishment!
Except for the Hero King, who had a stern face and couldnt speak, everyone couldnt help but exclaim in shock. Even the Templar Knights couldnt help but widen their mouths in amazement, unable to close them for a while.
This was the Pope, regarded by all as the closest person to the God of Light, an embodiment of kindness, righteousness, and perfection. It was unimaginable that he would turn out to be such a person.
Over the years, whenever the village on the edge of the mountain range was attacked by demons, the movements of the defending forces were always known by the demons. Everyone finally understood why. The reasons for the failure of several attempts to clear the demons in the Jinghong Mountains were also clear now.
For the innocent humans who lost their lives because of this, it was now clear who they should hold responsible.
The truth was out in the open, shouldnt everyone be happy about it?
However, why did it feel so sorrowful?
An eerie silence, heard in the ears, was the sound of the world shattering into pieces.
Robb knew he had done what he needed to do. He took a few steps to the side, no longer blocking the view of the crowd. The Pope he had held in his hands was casually thrown onto the ground.
The Pope still remained unconscious, but everyone felt that this person would be better off never waking up again.
The breath of all the onlookers became hurried.
An old woman who had lost her son to the demons squeezed her cane and took a step forward. At the moment of taking that step, anger surged within him more than reason. But as she took that step and bumped into the back of a templar knight, her reason began to awaken, and fear started to creep in.
However, before the fear could push the old woman back, the templar knight stepped aside.
Yes, he stepped aside!
You insolent brat, taste my sword! The Hero King didnt resort to a sneak attack; he roared Watch my sword! and then raised his enormous double-handed sword. In an instant, his eyes emitted a golden light, and his sword was enveloped in a golden aura. His entire body seemed to shimmer with gold, dazzling even the toughest of onlookers.
This move did manage to surprise Robb a bit. Huh? Heros Power?!
As it turned out, the skill the Hero King employed was a buff magic named Heros Power. It was unique to the hero class, significantly enhancing the users strength, speed, agility, intelligence, physical attacks, magical attacks, physical defense, magical defense in short, a substantial boost to all attributes, immunity to control effects essentially a cheat-level skill.
Of course, such a cheat-level skill could only be learned by a cheat-level class. In the game, it was a skill possessed by the hidden Hero class. In this real world, without a doubt, it belonged to a Legendary Hero, an essential element in all sword and magic worlds.
The Hero King proudly stated, Our ancestor, over a thousand years ago, was the legendary hero who expelled demons and saved humanity. He established history for humanity. What about it? Didnt you know even this?
Robb laughed, I didnt know before, but now I do! Yet, I dont find you any greater for it. Instead, I feel sorry for your ancestor, witnessing the inadequacy of his descendants.
The Hero King grew furious, taking a large step forward, his two-handed sword whooshing through the air as he slashed towards Robb.
However, in that very moment, a golden light also enveloped Robbs body, the same buff magic Heros Power. It transformed him into a shimmering golden hero just like the Hero King.
The Hero King was taken aback.
In that fleeting instant, Robb drew a two-handed sword and swung it horizontally at the Hero Kings sword.
Clang!
The two massive swords collided in mid-air, and then, the Hero Kings sword slipped from his grip and flew far, far away. Upon landing, it made a thud as it plunged into the ground, its golden glow fading.
All the surrounding knights stared in astonishment, and even the Hero King himself was momentarily immobilized.
With a casual flick of his hand, Robb opened a portal behind him. He then pushed his remaining teammates into the portal, smiling as he said, Youre the Hero King, right? If you have time, lets meet in the Desert Kingdom! Oh, by the way, as a parting gift, let me introduce myself properly. I come from Westwind City. Though I could easily finish you off now, thats not my style. Farewell.
Finishing his words, he leaped into the portal himself, disappearing without a trace.
