Marvel: The Greatest Hero Era

He was about two meters tall, and didn't look particularly strong. His body was slender, suggesting he was a powerful king. Often, the most powerful mages aren't very strong, even if they are very tall.

However, Zhao Chen felt that this guy was not someone to be trifled with, although he couldn't quite put his finger on why.

"Um, I'm going to meet another wife tomorrow, my 108th wife, a new friend. I hope you can be there to give your blessings. Our desert kingdom will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Before this wise ruler, Zhao Chen showed him the proper etiquette expected in their world, after all, Zhao Chen was essentially a very cultured person, or rather, a cultured god.

This is because I received a good education when I was young.

Zhao Chen began to reminisce about his parents, and he was very grateful for their upbringing.

Chapter 1057 Zhao Chen's Troubles

After a sumptuous dinner, Zhao Chen realized how many days it had been since he had eaten.

Starving, he forced himself to eat the large amount of fish and meat slowly, and drank heartily with the king.

As Zhao Chen recounted his past, the humble king repeatedly praised him for being young, promising, handsome, and a heartthrob.

Meanwhile, the king continued to recount his past.

The two chatted happily, and before they knew it, Zhao Chen was burping when the emperor suddenly said something.

"How about we become sworn brothers because we get along so well?" the emperor said expectantly.

"Am I worthy? I'm dizzy right now, alright. I'm very honored," Zhao Chen said.

"There's a place behind the palace courtyard; let's swear brotherhood in the Peach Garden."

"I don't seek to be born together, but..."

It was already late at night before I knew it.

"Let's all go back to our rooms and rest. Brother Zhao Chen, you can stay in my king's room, I'll just sleep on the sofa."

"How can this be? How could I have such presumptuous thoughts? I, Zhao Chen, am even grateful for what you have done. Moreover, I injured your commander, the dog-headed man, and I feel ashamed of myself, brother."

"If that's not the case, then he's not strong enough, or Brother Zhao Chen is too strong. The winner takes all is the core value of our country's corporate culture."

"This... I, Zhao Chen, swear I will never comply, I cannot sleep in your room."

"I'd be honored to accept your offer. How about this, you stay in my VIP room."

"Alright, since you've said so, I can't back down again."

Open the door.

Exquisitely beautiful, resplendent in gold, dazzling in brilliance, magnificent in splendor, exquisitely carved, and ingenious in every way—even all the finest words in the world would be insufficient to describe the luxury of this several-hundred-square-meter room, let alone its multiple floors.

Zhao Chen pounced on the bed, lying back on the soft and extremely comfortable bed. He held the back of his head with his hands, savoring this moment of comfort and tranquility.

Just then, a group of beautiful women walked in. Some of them had leopard heads, and some had cat heads; in short, they were all felines.

But this does not affect their good looks at all.

And they all have hot figures.

"Your Majesty has sent us to serve you. Tonight, you can do whatever you want to us, oh!" said the leading beauty with a leopard-like head in a seductive and extremely provocative voice.

"No need, no need. Please thank His Majesty properly for me. I will remember His Majesty's kindness." Zhao Chen said, tears already welling up in his eyes.

The following day, the wedding ceremony began, and the king's 108th wife commenced.

Zhao Chen already knew about this great country, a country where all the people were united, and that they had a great king.

However, this was only the case internally. Zhao Chen also saw the king's oppression of outsiders and his exploitation of people of other races.

"I can't worry about that anymore. At least he's my good brother. He hasn't treated me badly. Although I, Zhao Chen, sympathize with those outsiders, given the current situation, I have no choice but to prioritize the person over the matter for now." After thinking it over, Zhao Chen finally made his decision to unconditionally stand on the side of his good older brother.

The palace was filled with banquets that stretched from the palace walls to the outside world. All the people of the country participated, offering their heartfelt blessings to their king. The people's jubilant behavior showed how much they respected their king and loved their country.

The "brother" king walked over and personally took Zhao Chen's hand, leading him to the throne. They stood there like that.

"People of the whole country, let me introduce you. This is my good brother, Zhao Chen."

“I think you have already seen the true nature of Zhao Chen as a god. He deserves everything I have. Although we are meeting for the first time, we appreciate each other.”

"From now on, my orders are Zhao Chen's orders, and my words are his words. Do you understand? I love all of you." The emperor began to speak.

"it is good"

"it is good"

"..."

The people cheered with joy. Although they did not possess the divine power of Zhao Chen, the cheers of the people across the country were still deafening.

Even ordinary people who weren't present watched the giant screen hanging in the air while eating meat and drinking alcohol in the city.

They were all eagerly anticipating who the king would marry this time.

“Perhaps every one of my wives is one of our natives, but I’d like to take a concubine and find someone of another race. I want to experience what it’s like to have something new.”

At that moment, the entire nation was filled with boos from the people.

"My subjects, may I have a chance? I just want to experience it, that's all." The king answered the boos from the people with a questioning tone when he saw their opposition.

Okay

"..."

The whole country cheered again, because although they were unwilling, they believed in their king's decision, since their king had never made a mistake in the past two years.

Zhao Chen returned to his seat in the front row, where he sat at a table with the giant crocodile and the dog-headed man covered in bandages. They drank together, celebrating the wedding of this wise ruler.

A band arrived at the wedding venue and began playing elegant and dignified wedding music.

This music is delightful and brings happiness to everyone who hears it.

Everyone present felt like they were having their own wedding.

Accompanied by beautiful music, the bride walked out wearing a white wedding dress with her head down. This bride has a perfect figure, about 175 cm tall, with fair and slender legs. I wonder what kind of animal she will be after taking off her veil and face mask.

But Zhao Chen noticed a detail: when the bride was halfway there, she paused for a moment, and the sandman behind her gently touched her, indicating that she should continue walking.

It seems the bride did not want to marry the emperor.

"Who cares about all that? They're foreigners anyway. What does it matter to me whether they rob or not? As long as the emperor is happy, that's all that matters." Zhao Chen didn't realize that the dark primal force was quietly changing his will within him, and an evil power was very, very slowly corroding his kind heart.

The emperor held the bride's hands, and they gazed at each other face to face through the veil.

The emperor slowly lifted the bride's veil.

A beautiful human woman makes a purchase.

With her long, silvery-white hair, cherry-red lips, and large, watery eyes filled with tears, she was simply breathtakingly beautiful.

But she bit her lip tightly.

"I don't want to marry you, I have someone I love." The beautiful woman suddenly burst into tears and shouted hysterically.

A scene was reflected in Zhao Chen's astonished pupils.

That's right.

This stunningly beautiful woman is none other than Riven.

Chapter 1058 A Grand Wedding

Not long ago, a large group of Sandmen patrolled this vast desert like a scattered sand dune.

They looked around here and smelled there, running around like a swarm of headless flies.

“Look, there seems to be something down there.” A sandman stomped his foot on the ground.

A group of very curious sand people suddenly gathered around.

They started digging holes in the sand, curious about what treasures lay beneath the yellow sand.

After a long while, they finally saw the treasure hidden underground.

These are two humans embracing each other tightly.

They placed their hands inside the two people's nostrils and found they were still breathing.

"This vitality is truly remarkable."

"Let's brush the sand off this man and see what he looks like?"

"No, no, no, this woman has a good figure. Let's clean her up, take her back, give her a bath, and then see if she's pretty. If she's not pretty, we brothers can take her together and do whatever we want to her."

"After all, people in our country can do whatever they want with foreigners."

"Should we take that man back too?"

"What are you saying? What use is a man? The emperor isn't gay. You can carry him back yourself."

"No, no, I don't want to."

Several sand people furtively hoisted the woman onto their shoulders and left with grins on their faces.

Throughout the entire ordeal, these Sandmen never bothered to examine Riven's true appearance closely, even though they desperately wanted to.
