People are in the heavens, wealth can rival a country

Chapter 589 The Human King Ascends the Throne
Even though the threshold to enter Neverwinter was extremely high, the city was still packed with excited people on this day.

People were surprised to find that the ones who could squeeze to the front of the square were not the rugged warriors or the agile wanderers, but the thin-looking bards. These guys who usually played musical instruments burst out with unimaginable energy when faced with this grand event that was destined to be recorded in the history of Faerun.

Of course, this kind of thing would only happen in Neverwinter. After all, if he couldn't take action, the bard would always find a way to persuade others.

In short, almost all the bards from the entire continent of Faerun, and even from other planes, who are qualified to enter Neverwinter have gathered here to witness the coronation of the first human king of the multiverse. This is an epic that is about to happen, and it will surely be adapted into various tunes at a very fast speed and spread throughout the multiverse.

Of course, in addition to the bards, Neverwinter also had some secret visitors.

Messengers of God, and gods!
Those powerful gods naturally did not dare to enter Neverwinter, even if they were just incarnations. After all, "The Shame of the Gods" was still hung on the gate of Neverwinter.

Only gods with weak divine powers and some neutral gods of medium power would incarnate and enter here to witness all this with their own eyes. Some of them were angry, some were curious, and some had ulterior motives, but they just wanted to witness these so-called humans who could fight against divine power with human will.

There is no doubt that the tsunami outside the West Gate City not only shocked the people of Faerun, but also left all the gods puzzled.

Of course, all this was within Tang Sen's expectations.

"It's finally starting."

Tang Sen stood on the high platform in the center of the square and looked around at the crowd of people in Neverwinter. "After today, my enemy may not only be Xirik, the god of deception, but most of the gods in the entire multiverse."

Although he thought so, his expression was calm. The fraud that was about to happen and would shock the entire multiverse only existed in his mind. Tang Sen had not even told the people closest to him.

After all, the matter was too important. If there were any accidents, he and Neverwinter might be able to remain unscathed due to their characteristics, but Faerun would inevitably be destroyed by the completely crazy Cyric, and then the war of the gods would ensue, and the main material plane would be turned into a mess by the gods.

Thinking of this, Tang Sen raised his head and looked at the boundless sky.

Even though the sky seemed calm at this moment, Tang Sen's divine power could clearly feel that the kingdom of a powerful god was passing through the crystal wall and heading towards Faerun.

"Xirik, it's time to fall."

"A new God of Trickster will ascend the throne."

He let out a long breath and turned around.

Baines was standing upright behind him, with Tracy, Naomi and Xue Xue beside him.

Although they didn't know what would happen today, they could feel that today was of great significance.

And further behind is the lighthouse in the hearts of all the people of Furen - "The Human King" Arthur.

At this time, Arthur was completely different from usual. The best tailors in all of Faerun gathered together to make clothes for him with the best fabrics they could find. His crown was inlaid with treasures from elves, dwarves, halflings and even other races. His long golden hair fell from the crown, making Arthur's face look even more heroic and extraordinary.

"He is clothed with the wealth of an entire kingdom!"

This is Barn's comment on Arthur's outfit today.

"He even really looked like a king."

Naomi knew Arthur's true nature better, so her tone was naturally sarcastic.

“I think it’s a waste.”

Xue Xue just wanted to take down those treasures.

Only Tracy's eyes lit up. She fiddled with it from time to time and even wanted to take off her clothes and put them on herself - but unfortunately she was stopped by Barn.

It was obvious that no one present cared about the so-called "Human King".

But the procedure still has to go through.

Tang Sen's whole body began to emit a faint light, and the power of deception continuously poured into the platform under his feet. On the platform was an extremely complex magic circle.

The entire platform began to glow slightly, and then a beam of light shot up into the sky.

The power of deception spread throughout the sky of Faerun, allowing everyone who looked up at the sky to see a true illusion and the high platform in the center of Neverwinter Square.

The first thing they saw was a man with black hair, black eyes and a calm expression.

"Is this the legendary Lord of Neverwinter?"

Discussions were heard all over Faerun.

Compared to the dwarf Barn, people are much more unfamiliar with this Lord of Neverwinter, but the rumors about him are very exaggerated.

"I heard that the Lord of Neverwinter is the most powerful god. His power is enough to surpass most gods and can even be compared with the lady in Sigil."

"Shaar offended the Lord of Neverwinter, so she was nailed to the gate of Neverwinter forever, being laughed at by the entire multiverse, but He could do nothing about Neverwinter."

"I don't know what duties this god holds. As far as I know, he has not established any religion."

These discussions did not affect Tang Sen. His calm voice spread throughout Furen:
"During this period, many major events have occurred in the land of Faerun."

"The incarnation of the gods is walking on the main material plane, and the flames of war have begun to spread."

"Neverwinter has no intention of participating in the war. As a neutral, peaceful city, the only thing Neverwinter can do is to accommodate and protect all the creatures that enter Neverwinter."

"Even gods cannot invade Neverwinter's territory."

He paused and said, "This may be the reason why Mr. Arthur applied to Neverwinter to use Neverwinter as the venue for the ceremony."

"After consideration, Neverwinter has decided to approve Mr. Arthur's application. This does not represent Neverwinter's own inclination. This is simply a reward given to the people of Faerun by a city born in Faerun."

"Then the Human King's coronation ceremony will begin now."

When Tang Sen's figure disappeared from the image, Arthur appeared in front of everyone, and cheers resounded throughout the continent.

Most people have never seen Arthur, but when they see Arthur's face, no one will doubt Arthur's authenticity.

He looks like a hero, and will become the king who leads the people of Faerun out of despair.

Before this, Faerun had never had a similar ceremony, and it was impossible for a king to appear who could be recognized by creatures of different countries and races. Therefore, even though the ceremony process was extremely cumbersome, people still watched it intently and with great interest.

Arthur maintained his solemn appearance -

This time he didn't need to work hard. In order to prevent any accidents from happening to him, Tang Sen directly controlled his mind and body, so that he performed extremely perfectly throughout the coronation ceremony.

The coronation ceremony came to an end as the sun was about to set.

"I don't want to establish a so-called dynasty. I just hope that people from any country, any race, and any faith can live peacefully on the land of Faerun."

"My enemies have never been the good or lawful gods who protect people, but the evil gods who try to destroy our lives and subvert our world!"

"I believe, and have proven, that mortals are not so insignificant in front of gods. As long as we unite together, even gods will give in to us."

"This is the meaning of my becoming the King of Men."

"If the creatures of Faerun were an arrow, then I would be the sharpest point on the arrow."

"The target of this arrow is the evil gods who subvert Faerun. The first one to bear the brunt is Xirik, the god of fraud, who attempted to destroy Faerun with the prophecy of world destruction."

"He manipulated the Red Robe Wizard to invade the Dragon Coast. He colluded with demons to kill innocent people. He raised a tsunami to try to destroy everything. He entangled with other evil gods to turn Faerun into a place for gods to fight."

"I won't allow this to happen, and I don't think the creatures of Faerun will allow it either."

"I will defeat Him. We will defeat Him!"

After the final speech, thunderous cheers followed.

Then, Barn walked to the front of the stage and said:
"The coronation ceremony of the Human King has ended. Mr. Arthur, as the Human King of Faerun, the Lord of Neverwinter has granted you the right to become a permanent resident of Neverwinter. You can stay in Neverwinter indefinitely."

Arthur chuckled and said, "Great dwarf Barn, I am very grateful to the Lord of Neverwinter for providing the venue for the ceremony. I am also very grateful to the Lord of Neverwinter for accepting me as a resident. I know that Neverwinter is a safe city, and there are countless examples to prove this."

"I believe that as long as I am in Neverwinter, no god can harm me."

"However, throughout the entire continent of Faerun, countless people are still displaced. They are constantly threatened by the evil gods, and they do not have the protection of Neverwinter."

"As the Human King, can I calmly continue to stay in Neverwinter for my own safety?"

"No!"

"I will leave and be with my fellow men."

"I will face those evil gods with my mortal body until their conspiracy is destroyed and peace is restored in Faerun. By then, I may choose to resign as the Human King and retire in Neverwinter."

The image covering the entire Faerun still existed. Everyone heard Arthur's words and saw him walk down the platform and walk step by step towards the outside of Neverwinter.

If before this, the King of Men was just a title that people placed their hopes on, then Arthur's personal example has made people completely engrave his image in their hearts.

He finally walked out of Neverwinter, out of the absolutely safe territory of Neverwinter.

There were already hundreds of thousands of creatures who were unable to enter Neverwinter waiting there, awaiting Arthur's leadership.

Arthur saw them, too, and raised his hand, about to say something—

A bloody hand pierced through his left chest, holding a beating heart.

Paji.
