Upon hearing the response from Emperor Sorett, Huang Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With such an epic-level master as a Guardian, the Hero Empire could be described as impregnable. As long as those aberrant figures like the Seven Archdemons don’t co personally, it would be basically worry-free.
Moreover, figures like the Seven Archdemons, who are always aloof, typically only send avatars to cause trouble. A Demon King sotis has multiple avatars, and the power of these avatars is much weaker than the original, making them not as difficult to deal with.
With a flick of his palm, Huang Yi took out an exquisite flag from his storage ring, the national flag of the Hero Empire! It represents the dignity of a nation.
Recently, he had reached the maximum of 10 points for National Honor and had started earning World Honor Points.
The World Honor Points brought him nurous benefits, over a hundred in total, among which so were related to the Heaven Sent Empire, allowing him to expand globally.
This benefit was specifically reflected on the national flag, which had gained several functions. When planted on the No Man’s Land on a foreign continent, it could turn the surroundings into part of the Hero Empire. Additionally, the flag gained a function called "Oath." By pledging allegiance to the flag, one could beco a mber of the Hero Empire. For NPCs, it equated to establishing a contract, becoming a Guardian of the Hero Empire, akin to the function of a Guild Contract Stone.
Huang Yi waved his hand, and the flag instantly unfurled, with the scarlet "Slaughter" character particularly conspicuous.
He turned to look at Emperor Sorett and said, "As long as you swear allegiance to this flag, join the Hero Empire, I will imdiately use the power of the Prison Warden to unlock the seal of the cell that has held you for countless years. I now fully control the Heroes’ Prison and have the ability to grant you freedom."
Emperor Sorett sat lazily on his throne, glanced at the national flag of the Hero Empire in Huang Yi’s hand, and spoke indifferently: "I declare myself a mber of the Hero Empire, to protect the land of the Hero Empire."
Originally, an oath is a pledge from a subordinate to a superior, but when such an epic hero like Emperor Sorett spoke it, it turned on its head. It was as if it was not an oath but a grant of protection from him.
As the magnificent voice of Emperor Sorett fell, a na gradually manifested on the flag in Huang Yi’s hand—Sorett!
This indicated that the flag had established a contract with Emperor Sorett, and he had beco the Guardian of the Hero Empire!
Huang Yi smiled, imdiately using the power of the Prison Warden to disable the invisible seal force in the cell, truly opening the door to freedom for Emperor Sorett.
Emperor Sorett finally stood up slowly, like a majestic mountain that hadn’t moved for ages suddenly experiencing a tremor. His simple act of standing felt like unleashing a terrifying catastrophe; the surrounding space beca chaotic, with chaos like water flow bursting into whirlpools, as if unable to contain his movent.
The throne of Emperor Sorett lted at an observable speed, transforming into a golden flow of energy, pouring into his body. This throne was rely an embodint of his power, not real.
Emperor Sorett took a step towards the door!
It was like stepping from the Primordial Era towards the future, with his golden imperial robe slightly fluttering, showcasing his noble identity. The surrounding chaos hurriedly moved aside, seemingly in fear, making way for him!
Soon, Emperor Sorett walked out of that void, arriving at Huang Yi’s side.
Huang Yi felt as if a blazing sun had appeared beside him, its majestic aura unfathomable, causing a tingling sensation on the skin, making one not want to stay with this epic powerhouse for even a mont longer.
Though he had completed the Third Tier and was an advanced heavenly realm expert, the only one in the world with a divine level class, he was still, in front of Emperor Sorett, as insignificant as Earth before the Sun. It was not on the sa level at all. Unless the Wrath of the Godslayer in his hand could grow from a divine instrunt embryo into a genuine Divine Artifact, he could not withstand Emperor Sorett.
Huang Yi quickly teleported out of the Heroes’ Prison, and Emperor Sorett followed, teleporting to the topmost level of the Sky Garden.
After countless years of imprisonnt, this legendary figure finally regained freedom, forcing his way into an era that did not belong to him.
Emperor Sorett glanced around this world, his aged eyes showing a slight hesitation, shaking his head and sighing: "This world has beco so fragile! The air is almost devoid of nature’s spiritual energy, the continent is so frail that one could seemingly crush it with a few steps. Back then, I ventured to the Primordial Ancient Land seeking the lost gods, delved to the world’s end to discover the origin of all things, led boundless armies in battles across thousands of races, creating the Empire of the Everlasting Sun. In those days, the skies teed with giant dragons, casting vast shadows, with roars echoing from the Eternal Abyss, never ceasing. People from other worlds ca to seek out the Treasure Vault of the Golden Holy Dragon, Jin Shenglin. Yet now, such a great world has beco so tiny, like a dying person..." Finishing his words, his magnificent figure vanished into the air, whereabouts unknown.
For soone of his level, everything he did was elusive, unpredictable, beyond conventional understanding.
Huang Yi stood at the highest point of Dragon City, overlooking the land below, gazing at the bustling streets and alleys of Dragon City, finally feeling at ease.
This land was secure now; no matter how strong the invading demon clans were, they could not breach the wall that was Emperor Sorett.
However, this is also the last safe place on Hero’s Continent. Except for the Hero Empire, all other places are about to fall into the hands of the Demon Clan.
Huang Yi turned his head and gazed towards the south of the continent, his distant gaze seemingly piercing through boundless distances, projecting onto Sun Island.
Although the Hero Empire was safe, Sun Island was still in imminent danger!
That wasn’t the territory of the Hero Empire!
"Whoosh!" At this mont, a sharp sword light appeared in the distance, shooting swiftly like rapid lightning from another corner of the city!
In no ti, this sword light reached his side and transford into a human silhouette.
The visitor was Sharp Sword!
Sharp Sword looked around as if he was searching for sothing; he glanced at Huang Yi and said, "I just felt a familiar and strong aura."
Huang Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "I almost forgot, you are the Successor of the Sword Emperor. The person I just released indeed has so connection with you. He is Emperor Sorett, the Sword Emperor’s most outstanding disciple from back in the day!"
"It turns out to be him!" Sharp Sword took a slight breath, "I always thought this person only existed in history, but I never expected he was still alive! He was personally trained by the Sword Emperor as an Epic Hero. Although I am the heir of the Sword Emperor, I’ve only understood him through his relics. With Emperor Sorett, many of my doubts can be resolved. I ought to thank you for that."
"Just saying thank you isn’t any good; give sothing tangible." Huang Yi suddenly half-jokingly, half-seriously looked at Sharp Sword.
"Sothing tangible?" Sharp Sword thought for a mont and nodded, "How about this! In the future, anything related to the Pope, you don’t need to worry about, I’ll take care of it. I always felt sothing off about him; he didn’t participate in the Hero Trial but beca a hero for unknown reasons. It seems he discovered sothing, I need to investigate."
Huang Yi stroked his chin and asked, "There are so many super-first masters in the invading army, why did you specifically choose the Pope? If you say he inexplicably beca a hero, then there’s also Dongfeng! Dongfeng likewise didn’t undergo the Hero Trial but was promoted to a hero. You investigate the Pope but not Dongfeng, why is that?"
Sharp Sword shook his head and said, "Dongfeng is hard to investigate! He only appeared suddenly a while ago, if he hadn’t been promoted to a hero and announced by the system, I would have never known of such a person, and I have no enmity against him, no need to investigate. The Pope is different." As Sharp Sword spoke, his eyes emitted a slight chill, as if he harbored an old grudge against the Pope.
"Actually, you don’t need to waste ti investigating." Huang Yi suddenly revealed a mysterious smile, "Why the Pope beca a hero, I will have the answer soon. If you want to know, you can exchange it with your secret when the ti cos, just wait a little longer."
"Oh? You can actually know the truth?" Sharp Sword stared at Huang Yi sowhat surprised.
"I don’t know now, but I will know soon." Huang Yi nodded, calmly eting Sharp Sword’s gaze.
Two people with secrets of their own stared at each other like this.
Their relationship was very delicate, although they were allies at this mont, the future was unclear; it was uncertain whether they would remain friends or turn into foes.
