While this is true, some people still felt a little reluctant to see King Alexander actually suspend his duties.
[ Heng and Ha Blockheads ] Drogba and Pierce, the warden Oleg, the left and right prime ministers Best and Pierce, the strategist old Arjen and other high-ranking officials of Chambord City, as well as the students of the Civil and Martial University, were all taken aback upon hearing this, and one or two of them showed an uncontrollable look of surprise on their faces.
None of them expected that His Majesty the King would make such a decision so suddenly, without any warning.
A murmur of surprise rippled through the crowd.
However, since His Majesty the King had established absolute authority in the Kingdom of Chambord over the past year, although everyone was surprised, no one stood up to raise any objections.
In fact, what Sun Fei just said is reasonable and logical, both in terms of reason and facts.
After about a year of painstaking development, Sun Fei has transformed Chambord City, a once lowly, bullied, chaotic, and impoverished small country plagued by internal and external troubles, into a leading, powerful, well-ordered, and prosperous emerging force among the vassal states. It is no exaggeration to say that, apart from the size of its army and population, in terms of high-end military strength, Chambord City is now comparable to many first-tier empires on the Azeroth Continent.
In Sun Fei's eyes, Chambord City is now like a child who has learned to walk on his own with his help. Although he walks unsteadily and may fall down sometimes, he no longer needs to be helped step by step.
Therefore, now is the perfect time for Sun Fei to completely abandon his role as a hands-off manager.
Moreover, retirement does not mean severing ties with Chambord City. On the contrary, no matter what, Sun Fei remains the King of this kingdom and the ruler of this country. His word is law, and no one dares to challenge King Alexander's authority. However, Sun Fei is indifferent and lazy, dislikes tedious political and military affairs, and only has a three-minute attention span. This is a good opportunity for him to extricate himself and focus more on improving his own strength.
Commanding the Five Sword Heaven Peaks, remotely controlling the Chambord Ancient City, overlooking the Zenit Empire, and dominating the Azeroth Continent!
Watching the clouds rise and fall before the peak, carefree and at ease, drunk on the lap of a beauty, awake to wield power over the world—this is Sun Fei's ultimate pursuit!
Sun Fei's eyes swept across everyone's faces, clearly capturing their feelings, and he felt a surge of relief.
The image on the Diwei Crystal in his hand shifted, changing from [ Five Sword Heaven Peaks ] to twelve other sword peaks, slightly lower in height but still steep like swords, soaring into the Sword Peak, which appeared in a well-ordered manner between Chambord City and [ Five Sword Heaven Peaks ].
These twelve peaks, though not as breathtakingly beautiful as the Five Sword Heaven Peaks, rise proudly from the ground, soaring straight into the sky, giving people a powerful, profound, mysterious, and strange feeling. They possess a magical charm that attracts people to have their eyes examined.
"These twelve Sword Peak will serve as the domains of the twelve most powerful Saint of Chambord City. I will establish Twelve Golden Holy Palaces atop these Sword Peak as the guardian peaks of Chambord City and the [ Five Sword Heaven Peaks ]. These peaks will be used for training in martial arts and magic, and will also serve as my witnesses, overseeing the entire nation, protecting all people, and enjoying supreme Glory."
As soon as Sun Fei finished speaking, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the sky—
The sky, originally a clear, bright blue like a sapphire, was completely obscured by the Sun's rays, making the stars impossible to see. But at this moment, a strange change occurred. The instant before Sun Fei finished speaking, suddenly, one after another, bright and shining stars appeared, radiating a mysterious power that suppressed the Sun's brilliance and began to twinkle in the sky.
These stars, one by one, quietly emerged.
According to different positions and arrangements, different patterns were formed, such as Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. At this moment, these patterns were lifelike, as if they were drawn by the gods in the sky, and appeared in front of everyone.
"Huh? This is..."
"A wondrous constellation pattern appeared in the sky because of His Majesty Alexander's words?"
"Do these twelve constellation patterns represent the totems of the Twelve Golden Holy Palaces?"
"This is... the power of the stars, so... so terrifying!"
In the officialdom, everyone was stunned by what they saw: the twelve constellation patterns appeared in broad daylight because of His Majesty the King's words, obscuring the Sun's brilliance and flashing in turn. It was a mysterious and incredible sight!
This is a miracle!
An undeniable miracle!!!
Even Sun Fei himself was stunned by this scene.
To be honest, His King never expected this to happen when he spoke.
The next instant, almost in a flash, Sun Fei had a sudden inspiration and immediately realized that the appearance of this strange scene should be related to one of the three divine skills he obtained from the Diablo World, [ Grant ]. He remembered that when he bestowed the Cloth on Lampard, Drogba, and others, a similar strange scene appeared, which connected with the power of the stars in the sky.
This extraordinary sight shimmered in the sky for a full minute before slowly fading away.
The azure sky has returned to normal.
Sun Fei pulled himself out of his thoughts, his strange gaze slowly sweeping across the faces of Drogba, Pierce, Torres, Robben, and the numerous Urban Management Saint, finally settling on Lampard.
"I know you all want to become Saint with Moon Class strength, but only warriors at or above the Moon Class are qualified to be guardians of the Twelve Golden Holy Palaces. Therefore, if you want to become the strongest guardian Saint of Chambord City, if you want to become members of the Twelve Golden Palaces, you must work even harder and show me your strength. And today, someone has already taken the first step. Uncle Lampard, from this day forward, you are the guardian of the Golden Leo Peak among the Twelve Golden Holy Palaces!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Grant skill manifested once more.
The star map, which had just dimmed, reappeared at this moment.
However, this time only the pattern of the Golden Lion appeared. Ninety-six dazzling stars suddenly burst into bright light, and strands of starlight slowly shone down from the stars in the sky. Suddenly, they accelerated and disappeared in a flash, landing on one of the twelve peaks in the back mountain of Chambord City.
A strange ray of light shot into the sky from the Sword Peak and lingered for a long time.
Everyone was stunned once again.
At the same time, Lampard also sensed something amiss. A mysterious power seemed to emanate from the mountain peak, a strange feeling of blood connection Summon to him.
" Glory is my life, thank you, Your Majesty."
Lampard knelt on one knee, swore allegiance, and then his figure transformed into a streak of lightning, disappearing from the plaza and heading directly towards the Golden Leo Peak, one of the twelve peaks in the distance.
The whole country was shocked!
The royal palace within the city.
After returning from the square, Sun Fei wandered around the soon-to-be-retired palace alone.
The King of Chambord throughout history have lived here.
This includes Sun Fei's adoptive father, who died mysteriously in his prime, the previous King of Chambord City, Old Alexander, and generations of King. The place bears many marks of the Chambord City royal family, as well as magical portraits of members of the royal family throughout the ages, and some historical commemorative collections that are not particularly valuable but are of great significance to the King of Chambord.
Although Sun Fei was just a transmigrator, the blood of Alexander still flowed in his veins. Having lived in this palace for a long time, he had developed some feelings for it and gradually accepted this royal family, which was not particularly illustrious. Therefore, even though he was going to move to the disguised " Sky City " in the back mountain, which had all kinds of living facilities, he still had to take some things from this palace that belonged only to the King of Chambord family with him.
As Sun Fei traveled, he packed everything he needed to take into his storage ring.
Drawing inspiration from the collective office models of his previous life, Sun Fei planned that after he moved out, this largest and most spacious palace in Chambord City would be transformed into the central government residence for the six Chambord and the prime minister. Prime Minister Best and hundreds of officials from the six ministries would reside here, using it as the center to manage all affairs, large and small, in Chambord City.
