The Path to Sainthood from Fairy Tail

After the king finished speaking, he reached out and wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

Li Chi also looked at Zhong Zheng and nodded to him.

Many people in their team have the ability to identify lies, but Zhong Zheng is a warrior and has not worked hard on this ability.

As a necromancer, Li Chi not only has the magic to control the dead, but also has the ability to discern the hearts of the living.

Just now, when the king was speaking, he used his ability to identify lies and found that what the king said was true.

After thinking for a while, Zhong Zheng said to Li Xuan, "Come back first. We can discuss the rest after the king finishes speaking."

Li Xuan, who originally wanted to fight for it, had to let it go in the end, nodded and returned to his team.

Zhong Zheng turned to the king and said, "Please continue to tell us about the demon."

After Li Xuan returned to his seat, Yin Zhi immediately asked, "Li Xuan, where have you been?"

"I went to the bathroom." He answered truthfully.

Yin Zhi raised the communicator, shook it, and signaled Li Xuan.

Li Xuan understood and took out his communicator.

Sure enough, he found himself pulled into a group chat.

The name of the group chat is [Blue Academy Star Travel Group], and the group owner is Zhong Zheng, a seventh-level martial artist and the leader of this operation.

Before he had time to complain about the group name, Li Xuan was attracted by the pinned message in the group.

This message was sent by Zhong Zheng.

[Everyone, please be aware that our location may not be safe. Next, I need everyone to remain calm after reading the following message and not show any abnormality!]

Everyone should have noticed that the purpose of our operation this time is to deal with the demonic invasion. According to the teachers, the Western Fantasy World loses contact after sending out a distress signal. However, judging by the king's reaction, the battle between the locals and the demons doesn't seem to be very critical.

I hope I'm just overthinking this. But I can't gamble with everyone's lives. If things go wrong later, we all need to unite and overcome the difficulties together.

Judging from the information, Zhong Zheng has noticed something is wrong, but he still lacks key evidence and is in a state of uncertainty. Zhong Zheng wants to find a way out from the king.

But Xiaobai has already pointed out that the power from outside the world is approaching. If the king is allowed to show a flaw, the encirclement may have been set up.

By then, there will be no way to escape.

wrong!

Li Xuan suddenly noticed that Cade, who had always been with Zhong Zheng and Li Chi, was now nowhere to be seen in Zhong Zheng's team.

He searched the entire hall but couldn't find him.

That’s right, although Zhong Zheng is calm and steady in his work, he will not let the situation develop on its own. He also asked his teammates to collect intelligence to ensure that everything is under his control.

There was a slight vibration from the communicator in his hand.

When I opened it, I saw a message from the [Blue Academy Star Travel Group].

Cade sent a few pictures in the group.

The first picture shows a ruin, but in the center of the ruins stands an intact castle. This castle is out of tune with the dilapidated surroundings, as if it was forcibly inserted into the original site from somewhere else.

The second picture is a close-up of the ruins. Besides the broken walls, there are also pieces of limbs scattered here and there, making the scene look extremely gory. The most terrifying thing is that in the distance, you can vaguely see a "hill" covered with hands and feet.

Some students showed physical discomfort just by seeing the second picture.

The third picture is an overhead view of the "hill".

In the picture, there is a huge formation painted with crimson liquid on the ground. The "hill" is located in the center of the formation and looks more like a sacrifice.

Zhong Zheng put away the communicator and interrupted the king who was talking: "Okay, your Majesty, I think you can stop now."

Only then did the king stop telling about his battle with the devil.

He maintained a faint smile and said calmly, "What's wrong, brave master? Is there something wrong with what I just said?"

"There is indeed a big problem!" Zhong Zheng said coldly.

"Please speak." The king ignored him and remained calm.

"Why did you surrender to the devil? Why did you slaughter your own people? Don't they even have the right to live?"

Faced with the questioning, the king slowly lowered his head.

"Qualifications? Hahaha!"

"They are my possessions. It is their honor to die for me!"

The king suddenly raised his head and roared at the top of his lungs.

"The devil has promised me that if I give them this world first, they will grant me the identity of a devil and allow me to go to hell and have a much larger space. Isn't this better than me staying here and relying on the extraordinary knowledge you give me?"

"It's unreasonable!" Zhong Zheng said angrily.

"But it's almost time, you guys should stay here."

The king's expression became dull, and as he took a step back, the soldier who was originally beside him took a step forward and stood in front of him.

"Get rid of them." After saying this, the king disappeared into the darkness.

Just when Li Xuan was thinking that the soldiers here were probably not even at the seventh level, how could he possibly get rid of them.

The two soldiers threw away the spears in their hands, and their backs swelled up instantly. The black spikes pierced through their armor and transformed them into spike demons.

"It's the devil!"

"Quick, everyone, get into my protective shield!" A psychic used his special powers and called on his teammates around him to hide inside together.

Zhong Zheng was not afraid at all. He took out Thor's hammer and swept it across, knocking the two demons away.

The psychic who had just put up the protective shield smiled awkwardly, then retracted the protective shield.

Zhong Zheng didn't have time to pay attention. He turned around and said to everyone, "The current situation may be worse than I thought. From now on, everyone, follow me closely and don't leave the team, otherwise I may not be able to guarantee your safety!"

"Follow me, let's get out of this place!"

After saying that, Zhong Zheng sprinted directly towards the window and rushed out.

Without saying a word, Wang Lun rushed forward with Wang Na and followed Zhong Zheng.

Immediately afterwards, Jinping and Ginzhi also started running.

The first ones to react were basically martial artists. For them, reaching this height was a piece of cake as they didn't need to worry about any danger.

As for other professions, as long as you are not afraid of heights, there is basically no problem.

Soon, the students successfully left the palace.

Li Xuan looked at everyone and couldn't help but sigh that sometimes walking through the window is faster than walking through the door.

A man in red armor slowly descended from the sky, and the mask part retracted from front to back, revealing a handsome blond face inside.
