Battle of the Two Cities: From Zaun to the Void

Chapter 152 Intimidating Arika

Xerath uncorked the mixture of anger, poked it a little with his finger, and put it in his mouth.

Suddenly, he felt his heartbeat speed up and a blush appeared on his face.

"Revenge?" Xerath smiled lightly, "Revenge is not enough, do you know what my wish is?"

Du Wenkai shook his head.

"I want to be the emperor of Shurima!" Xerath's heart was surging, and he had fully agreed to Du Wenkai's plan.

[Attention from Xerath, gold coins +100! 】

"Damn Xerath, awesome!"

Du Wenkai gave him a thumbs up. A sun priest only gave him one gold coin, but a Xerath paid him 100 gold coins.

He just spent 500 gold coins to buy the Anger Mixture, but now he got back 100 gold coins.

This wave is not a loss, and even a little profit. (dog head for life)

Xerath entered the imperial city and came before the arrogant emperor Azir.

"Your Majesty, Prophet Zhou has agreed." Xerath spoke in a very soft voice, for fear of disturbing the hard-working emperor above.

"Huh? Agreed?" Azir behind the desk smiled knowingly, and stopped writing.

"Agreed, I personally persuaded." Xerath's tone was very humble, and his lowered head was about to drop to the ground.

"Haha, I knew you would be able to do it." Azir laughed heartily, "Xerath, when I ascend, I will definitely give you back your freedom."

Hearing this, Xerath's eyelids twitched, and he said with a low eyebrow, "Your Majesty, I am already very satisfied to be able to stay by His Majesty's side day and night."

Azir nodded silently, patted Fear Xerath on the shoulder, and said, "I didn't mean to scold you last time, don't take it to heart."

Xerath took a step back, kneeling on the ground in fear, "Your Majesty, Xerath dare not."

"Xerath, you, alas..." Azir sighed deeply, regretting in his heart.

Xerath mentioned to him more than once about freeing slaves and restoring freedom.

He refused because it was too late.

After several evasions, the relationship between the two gradually became estranged.

Even, Azir insulted Xerath with the word "slave".

This used to be unthinkable.

You know, they are the best two brothers.

Azir was remorseful and wanted to make amends, but due to his status as emperor, he couldn't save face.

He secretly decided that he must announce the liberation of the slaves in front of everyone during the ascension ceremony, and at the same time give Xerath a free body.

But where he didn't see it, a light flashed across Xerath's deeply buried face.

"What should I do next, perform the ascension ceremony immediately?" Xerath asked.

Azir shook his head and said, "Don't be in a hurry, let Prophet Zhou hang out for a few days, let's talk about it after a few days..."

In a flash, ten days passed.

Du Wenkai spent ten days in the cell in fear.

He couldn't sit still, couldn't sleep well, and couldn't eat well.

Relying on nine bowls of dry rice every day, I barely hang on to my life.

Fearing Xerath's treachery, he took the Wrath Potion and went it alone.

However, he couldn't do anything about it.

Everything that could be done was done, and the start-up capital of 500 gold coins was also thrown in.

Now I only have 104 gold coins left on hand, and I can't buy anything else except guards and red potions.

"Let's resign ourselves to fate..."

Du Wenkai let out a long sigh, and sat back on the ground slumped.

He thought of the Erha raised by his family.

If Erha is there, maybe he can dig a hole out of this cell.

At this moment, there was a loud bang, and the iron fence was opened again.

"Sher Zhou, congratulations on being able to go back!"

A jailer walked in with an iron rod in his hand, smiling.

"Can we go back?" Du Wenkai was ecstatic and couldn't believe it.

He stood up abruptly, and leaned in front of the jailer, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?"

"I heard that Lord Xerath begged for you, His Majesty is merciful."

The jailer was wearing a desert-style robe, tightly wrapped up and down. He moved back without leaving a trace and said:

"By the way, Lord Xerath asked me to tell you that the ascension ceremony will take place in half a month. Please prepare yourself."

Du Wenkai nodded heavily, he still had Xerath's spell on him, so he didn't dare to do anything wrong.

"The Temple of the Sun has been repaired, and His Majesty has sent Lord Xerath to settle in, and will preside over the ascension ceremony with you."

"Thank you." Du Wenkai was very grateful. The information provided by the jailer was very useful, so that he would not be in a hurry when facing Xerath.

Under the leadership of the jailer, Du Wenkai came to the management room, changed the prison uniform, and put on the priest's robe again.

The robe was pure white, wide and large, and the long hem had been dragged to the ground.

When walking, you must always hold your head high to ensure that the hat on your head does not fall off.

He followed the jailer all the way, and finally saw the three priests Juan who had been friends with him for a long time at the door of the secret prison.

"First, Lord Prophet."

The three of them dodged their eyes, as if they had done something shameful.

Du Wenkai expressed his understanding of the surrender of the three.

But when I thought that the gold coins provided by these three people were all calculated in single digits, I felt itchy with hatred.

Prophet Zhou treated every sun priest very well on weekdays, but he did not expect these three people to distrust Prophet Zhou so much.

If the three of them believed him a little more and provided more gold coins, maybe he would have already collected enough money to buy the magic costume.

Thinking of this, Du Wenkai became very angry and asked: "Why, what are you doing standing here?"

At this time, Juan stood up and said: "Our family is gone, so we can only follow the Prophet back to the Temple of the Sun."

Du Wenkai nodded and said, "Then let's go."

The Sun Disc stands in the Temple of the Sun, where the Ascension Ceremony is held.

Similarly, the Sun Temple is also the place where the sun priests are active, and it is also the residence of the sun prophet.

It's a pity that after Azir's purge, no one in Prophet Zhou's huge harem was left.

"First, Prophet, are we really going to hold an ascension ceremony for His Majesty?" Sun Priest Arika asked.

He felt guilty and felt that he was unworthy of his status as sun priest.

Hearing this, Du Wenkai secretly rolled his eyes.

Priest Sun, who was unwilling, had already met Hades early.

Of the three people in front of you, which one is honest?
How can there be such a good thing in the world if you have done something and set up a memorial archway?
He said unceremoniously: "Since you don't want to, you can go back and continue squatting. Only three people are enough for the ascension ceremony."

Arika trembled in fright, her chubby round face turned pale and bloodless in an instant.

"No, I'm just asking, one more person is more strength, don't drive me back!"

After intimidating Arika, Du Wenkai strode towards the Sun Temple without looking back.
