Chapter 1040 Legendary Status
Chapter 1040 Legendary Status
This is why all the prefectures in the city have strengthened their defenses, and it will take Samlet much more effort to sneak in unnoticed.
This immediately aggravated his old injury.
Fisher-Doug put his things away, then sighed and said:
"Lord of the Palace, you'd better not go anymore."
Sam, who was about to leave, stopped and looked at him calmly.
"Tell me, is there something you're hiding from me?"
Samlett was once the one who managed these legendary powerhouses. Although the position of the Temple Master of the Demigod Temple was often chosen by force, that did not mean he was incapable of dealing with other demigods.
He had already said that he would never give up, so if Fairsherdog brought it up again, it meant that he was hiding something from him.
Fairsherdog knew Samlett's temperament, so he shrugged and said:
"As you know, Lord of the Palace, although I am not the only legendary-level person in this city, none of those guys are as leisurely as I am. So, they often come to me to discuss things."
"What do you mean by that? Are you saying they're hiring you as their security guard because you want to come after me?"
Upon hearing Samlett's question, Fisher Doug shook his head repeatedly and said:
"Palace Master, please don't misunderstand. I never intended to deal with you. It's just that your actions are rather reckless."
Even without me, there are other guys.
Fairsherdog wanted to explain things to Samlett as clearly as possible.
It wasn't that Sam was weak enough to be discovered by Fairsherdog and his group after infiltrating. Rather, it was because at the Legendary level, the level of life is different. Unless one attains enlightenment through a more concealed method, they cannot escape the deliberate detection of someone of the same level.
So, while Sam can deceive others, once the kingdom's priests make their move, even if the priests are no match for him, his whereabouts will still be exposed.
However, Samlett had no interest in listening to his explanation at the moment, and immediately grasped the key point in his words.
"You mean the other guys have all disappeared, so that's why they came looking for you?"
Fairsherdog didn't know why Samlett asked that question. He thought about it for a moment and finally nodded.
“That’s right, so you must stop this reckless action, otherwise even if I don’t betray you, you will still be discovered once those guys have the time.”
However, Samlett ignored him and instead pulled him aside, saying:
"Come on, take me to the temple."
Just as Fairsherdog was starting to regain his composure, he was about to say a few more words of advice, but when he heard Samlett say he was going to the House of Worship, he immediately trembled with fear.
He's old and frail now, and Sam is also wounded. If the two of them go to the monastery like this, what difference is there between them and lambs to the slaughter?
"Don't shake. Just do as I say, and I'll make sure you're okay."
"And at worst, you can just come with me. Anyway, being here is no different from being in prison."
"Your Highness, the joke you told is not funny at all."
Fairsherdog shook his head as he walked.
With Fisher constantly chattering away, the two arrived at the temple.
The head of the guards at the gate immediately stepped forward and saluted when he saw that it was Fisher Doug.
Only then did Fairsherdog realize that they had arrived at the main gate of the Temple of Worship. He forced a smile, nodded to the head guard, and then said:
“This is my student. He practices the path of the warrior, so I would like to ask if the Venerable Holmes is in the academy. I would like to bring my student to learn from him.”
However, upon hearing Fairsherdog's almost pleading words, the head of the guards remained completely unfazed and replied directly:
“I’m sorry, Venerable Fairsherdog, His Holiness Holmes is not in the House, and according to the rules of the Venerable House, your students are not allowed to enter.”
This can't just be called arrogant; it's downright rudeness.
Fairsherdog showed no anger whatsoever. Just as he was about to leave, Samuel, who was behind him, stepped forward.
"Apologize to my teacher."
Samlett’s tone was very cold, and Fisher Doug’s heart skipped a beat when he heard it, and he immediately tried to pull Samlett away.
However, the guard leader was perhaps already aware of Fairsherdog's awkward identity, so he was extremely arrogant towards Sam.
"roll."
Before he could even finish uttering a word, Sam's fist came flying at him.
A head-on confrontation is much easier than his secret infiltration.
With just one punch, this high-ranking and powerful guard leader, whose strength was at the late stage of the epic level, had his skull cracked.
As for his face, the only way to describe it is that it is completely unrecognizable.
Seeing their leader lying unconscious on the ground, the other guards all picked up their weapons and pointed them at Samlett. Just as they were about to attack Samlett, Fisher Doug, who had only known how to endure because of his status, made his move.
With a wave of his hand, several thick, black, metallic-looking thorny vines suddenly sprouted from the roadside flowerbed.
The vines wrapped around the small team of dozens of people, and instantly their expensive magical armor was easily pierced and torn to shreds like paper, along with their bodies.
Fisher-Doug walked step by step toward the guard leader who had just woken from his coma. His face was no longer amiable; it was cold and distant.
Behind him followed countless sharp thorny vines.
Do you think I'm qualified now?
To the leader's horror, the thorns behind him tore him to pieces.
"Ants should act like ants."
Fairsherdog headed toward the monastery, leaving behind only this one sentence in a cold voice.
Samlett followed Fairsherdog into the courtyard, while at that moment, inside the Como Palace, King Como XIV heard his subordinates report on the situation in front of the shrine.
"Your Majesty, this Felsherdog is far too audacious, he..."
With a sharp crack, the eunuch who was still trying to gossip received a heavy slap across the face.
"What kind of person are you, daring to casually slander a legendary-level elder? Guards, drag him away and his entire family. Execute the men and enslave the women."
Upon hearing this, the eunuch kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, but the palace guards quickly dragged him away.
King Como XIV surveyed the room before speaking coldly:
“Previously, Fairsherdog didn’t bother with you ants. You lackeys better listen up: if you dare to talk about a legendary elder again, you’ll end up like this.”
King Como XIV then issued another order:
"As I just said, deal with all those bastards' associates as well."
With just a casual remark, dozens of powerful clans were wiped out in an instant.
Because the guards of the Imperial Household Department are all of extraordinary origin, each supported by their own powerful family.
Because the enshrined monks of the temple are powerful enough that they don't need any guards. In fact, these guards are more of a privilege to be favored by the enshrined monks. Even a casual word of advice from them can be considered a great opportunity.
This makes the guards of the Imperial Household Department even more sought after than the guards of the Royal Palace. None of those who can enter this guard team have an easy background.
