Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Celebration Banquet
The aristocratic district of King's Port was full of lights and festive atmosphere today, and the news of the complete defeat of Leorik and the demon army quickly spread throughout the streets of King's Port.
Bards compiled the war into ballads that were sung in taverns everywhere, and Wood VI laid down a kilometre-long feast on the King's Road for all the citizens who came to celebrate.
All the taverns in the port area are open all night today, and everyone, commoners and aristocrats, will be able to receive unlimited free food and drink in the taverns tonight.
The whole of King's Harbour was in a revelry tonight.
The people celebrated not only the victory in this battle, but also the utter destruction of the terrifying mountain that weighed down all the kingdoms of the West, Tristram.
The demon city of Tristram and the mad Skeletron have long been a major concern for all the people of the West.
Its existence is the most terrible nightmare in the hearts of the people of the entire Western Realm, and even the entire Western Continent.
Now, the sharp knife that has reached the hearts of all the people of the Western Realm has finally been completely broken, and people no longer have to worry about waking up one day to find that their homeland has been taken under the rule of Skeletron.
In this battle, the brightest star is, of course, Xue Hua, who broke into Skeletron's tomb alone and single-handedly eliminated Skeletron.
His story has been compiled into an epic poem and officially recorded in the annals of all the kingdoms of the West.
In the First World, Xue Hua's reputation was once again spread widely, and this time, even the distant Immortals and the closed Uri heard of his name.
But in the royal palace of King's Port, our epic protagonist doesn't think it's a good thing.
From the moment he returned from Lin Hai, Xue Hua was almost immediately caught in another, more troublesome "battle".
From the gates of the noble district of King's Port to the glittering banquet halls of the royal palace, Xue Hua was almost always dealing with a constant stream of people trying to make friends with him.
A whole group of beautiful and bewitching ladies and celebrities almost blatantly created all kinds of "accidents" and wanted to drill into his arms.
Xue Hua thinks that he is not a true gentleman who sits still, but he is really not in the mood now.
Tristram's royal tomb**, the words that King Leorik said to him are still in his ears.
This choice is related to his future and even the speed of the development of the swarm, so he can't be careless.
"Abbath... Is there any way I can get out of here? ”
Xue Hua was blocked in the center of the banquet by a large group of warblers and warblers with a helpless look on his face, and all kinds of perfume smells were about to smoke him out.
And if it weren't for the protection of his psionic shield with a barrier of will, this group of female robbers would definitely strip him naked in the banquet hall......
"Unleashing the Poison Explosion Worm will solve your problem."
“????”
Abbather's simple and cold solution made Xue Hua's face red, and the group of female idiots next to him thought he was shy, and suddenly squeezed him more and more enthusiastically.
"Isa... Help ......"
"Sorry, Juggernaut, the Hive doesn't have a plan in mind to resolve this incident."
QAQ......
Xue Hua wanted to cry and stood in place without tears, he didn't even know where to put his hands, he looked at the crowd standing there leisurely sipping snow gin and Kane from Curast with a plea look......
These two old don't repair!
Just when Xue Hua had begun to have nothing to do and was ready to "close his eyes and wait for death", the women around him suddenly shivered collectively, and then dispersed silently.
Xue Hua stood in place with his eyes closed for a long time, but the imaginary plot of being knocked down and pushed backwards did not happen.
He opened his eyes and saw that Sarah String, the Queen of the Storm, was already standing in front of him at some point.
"Forehead ......"
"What? Isn't it disappointing? Blame me for disturbing your good deeds? ”
The words of the legendary Amazon rushed towards Xue Hua like a cold ice wind, blowing him involuntarily shuddering......
"No... No! Absolutely nothing! ”
"Humph! Forgive me for not daring to ......" Sarah snorted coldly, and then glared at him with a "you kid give me a little leisure" look.
"Heh... Hehe......" Xue Hua scratched his head in embarrassment, not knowing how to answer.
"Alright, get out, do you still want to be watched here?"
"Ahh Thank you so much! I'll go now! ”
Xue Hua was reminded by Sarah, and suddenly remembered his original purpose, he looked up and looked around, but saw that the group of female idiots and politicians and aristocrats with smirks on their faces had a tendency to re-surround him, and hurriedly ran back without saying a word, and jumped out of a window connected to the terrace at a speed three points faster than when he broke into Tristram City single-handedly......
Seeing his embarrassed appearance of running away desperately, Sarah also shook her head involuntarily, and the corners of her mouth gently hooked up a smile.
"This kid ......"
......
Finally escaped from the "terrifying" banquet, Xue Hua didn't want to be caught by the "more terrifying" street banquet crowd on the street, he tried his best to bypass the King's Avenue in the aristocratic district, sneaked all the way and borrowed the tunnel of the insect swarm, and finally ran out of the aristocratic district.
Xue Hua bypassed the sentry post on duty outside the city wall and cautiously came to the plain north of King's Port, which was once rich in fragrant fruits.
He found a fairly flat stone and sat down, staring at the traces of fierce battle everywhere beside him.
Since the invasion of the demon army did not enter the city of King's Harbour this time, the city was not too badly damaged.
Only a few fragments of the shattered boulder fell into the residential area, smashing some roofs and glazed windows.
But this is not the case on the battlefield outside the city.
The demonic armies and the gray mist of Skeletron's death have ravaged the otherwise vibrant plains.
The origin of a strong person above the legend is not so easy to deal with, and the areas that have been corroded by those gray mist will be devoid of grass for tens or hundreds of years in the future.
When Skeletron attacked, most of the Fragrant Fruit Plains were shrouded in gray mist, and nearly ninety percent of the Fragrant Fruit Manors in King's Harbor were in that area, and now those manors were already a withered and dead scene.
And I'm afraid this situation will continue for a long time.
The economic lifeblood of King's Harbor no longer exists, and those nobles and the three major families will have to find another way to maintain their position in King's Harbor.
Oh! By the way, there are only two families left.
Joshua, the Diamond Staff, and the Frank Family, the Lion Swords, all contributed to the war.
Their position was strengthened, and after this experience, the two families began to actively seek a reform of King's Harbor with the king.
But what about the Marjeries family......
Although Ron Margery can be said to have died in battle to defend King's Port, to put it bluntly, his death was purely his own doing.
So, while Wood VI also rewarded the Margeries with the same respect for their old love, Ron Margery was dead, so ......
People walk tea cool, you know......
