The Last Dark King
Chapter 138: Meeting with the King
Latest website: Rhodes was surprised and happy at the same time.
I was surprised that I would go to see the legendary king.
The happy thing is that this basically means that he has passed the test, at least it is impossible for him to die.
He followed the jailer out of the dungeon, and a carriage covered with flames and withering patterns stopped in front of the prison.
The jailer opened the door, and as soon as Rhodes got in, the carriage took off into the air and flew deeper into the royal city.
The carriage was completely enclosed, and Rhodes couldn't see anything. He could only feel a strong push on his back, which proved that the carriage was very fast.
After an unknown amount of time, a slight falling sensation appeared, and then the carriage paused slightly, and Rhodes knew that it had landed.
The car door was opened, and the two priests in crimson robes bowed slightly.
"Mr. Rhodes, please come with us."
Rhodes stepped off the carriage, and an extremely mammoth building came into view.
It is oval in shape, like a standing giant egg, and its surface is covered with dark red stripes.
It is surrounded by an extremely huge square with a sunken center and high walls sloping outward, like an unfolding flower disk.
The priest stopped outside the high wall and motioned for Rhodes to go in on his own.
Rhodes could only walk towards the building alone. There was no one in the empty square, which made him feel like he was falling into the center of the world.
The closer you get to the center, the smaller you feel.
When he came to the giant building, he felt no more than a speck of dust.
Rhodes saw the door, and just as he was about to push it open, the door opened automatically.
An old man who looked like an orange peel came out with an angry look on his face. He ignored Rhodes directly, and with a flash of inspiration at his feet, he rose into the air and disappeared in an instant.
Rhodes is a little envious. He still doesn't know the principle of flying, and if he wants to fly, he can only rely on the spirit boat.
Maybe it will be okay after I become stronger.
Just as he was about to walk in, another person walked out of the door.
This is a middle-aged man with gray temples, resolute eyes, a thick beard, and a faint smell of cigarette smoke.
He turned his attention to Rhodes and did not ignore him.
"Are you Rhodes? I am Da Lin, the first defense officer of the General Army War Department. You will have to deal with me in the future. I hope you can display your due value and dedicate your soul to mankind."
Rhodes was stunned. Before he could think of a reply, his figure turned into mist and dissipated in the air, as if he was just a phantom or clone.
At this moment, another middle-aged man came out.
His face was like a cracked piece of wood, with two eyes and a nose, and a crooked crack in his mouth.
Rhodes had seen this man. He was Horus, the Archbishop of the Holy Church. He was responsible for all the work of the Church and was the actual controller of the Church. However, the Pope was concurrently held by the King, which proves that Trorian It is a complete royal power system.
Horus glanced at Rhodes and said in a deep voice: "The king is waiting for you, come in quickly."
White light flowed out from his body, and his figure turned into a white meteor and disappeared in an instant.
Rhodes had no choice but to walk inside alone. Inside was a long corridor with no one on duty, and at the end was a heavy door engraved with flame patterns.
Rod Mingzhi did not choose to push the door, but got in through the slightly open door.
The moment he stepped in, a wave of heat hit his face. Rhodes felt as if he had entered a blazing furnace. The super strong light pierced him so hard that he could not open his eyes. There was a strong sense of repulsion oppressing his soul, but the warm breath also Hug him, trying to alleviate his discomfort.
A gentle voice came from far away.
"Relax, don't be nervous. The power of the holy fire is too powerful. The soul may not be used to it when seeing it for the first time. Don't turn on spiritual vision, don't evoke spiritual energy, and imagine returning to the arms of your parents."
Rhodes did as the voice said, and the friendly aura suddenly became stronger, as if his parents had come to him, and the light became gentle and no longer dazzling.
He opened his eyes, and at this moment, he seemed to have entered the world of fire.
To the end of his sight, there were surging golden flames.
The huge pillar of flame seemed to support the world, spreading burning golden light across the universe.
And under this extremely majestic flame, sat an extremely small figure.
Although he was so inconspicuous, Rhodes still saw him at a glance.
Is he the king?
Rhodes hesitated a little, not knowing whether to salute in place or walk over.
But the next moment, he didn't have to worry about it.
As soon as his eyes blurred, the king had already arrived in front of him.
This is a tall man. Time has left indelible traces on his body, but in his silhouette you can still see that he was once a very handsome young man. He is wearing a gold and white suit full of flame patterns. Wearing a long robe and a golden crown that looked like burning flames, powerful power radiated from him, but his eyes were quite gentle, and he looked at Rhodes with a slight smile.
"Sure enough, he has some special talents."
he said with a smile.
"sit."
He sat down directly on the spot.
Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed suit.
So, against the backdrop of the overwhelming holy fire, Rhodes and Wang sat opposite each other and began their first conversation.
Wang's voice, like his eyes, was very soft and cautious, as if he was afraid that his powerful power might inadvertently hurt others.
"Although this is our first meeting, I have heard about your deeds many times."
Wang said slightly narrowly.
"King of the sewers, cult hunter, public lover on the crossroads, collector of strange fire, persistent fighter, instant shooter."
Rhode's face turned dark immediately.
Aren't you a king? Why is it so unruly?
When did I become a public lover? Have you sold my doll? Also, how do I ejaculate instantly and last long?
"This is all a misunderstanding."
Rhodes argued:
"This is a prejudice and distortion against me. I only go to the sewers occasionally and have never developed a relationship beyond friendship with anyone."
Wang smiled and said: "You can leave these words to Miss Qingyu. This is the first time I have seen someone who can make Armando half angry to death. You must comfort her when you go back."
Rhodes was startled.
Armando? Is that the old man with orange peel? Qingyu pissed him off half to death?
No wonder he looks so angry.
So Qingyu made a special trip here?
It’s really reliable!
I can hold this thigh firmly!
"But, little Rod."
Wang sighed slightly.
"You've got us into big trouble."
Rhodes immediately said: "That justice must be a doomsday cultist. He is a member of the Advent sect. He once ate the shell of the ancient god. He has two soul characteristics. He is eager to pray to the old master to come to eliminate his pain and fulfill his wishes. , as long as you investigate him in depth, you will definitely find clues."
Wang's eyes were slightly surprised.
"How did you know?"
"He told me."
"That's why you dare to kill him?"
"right."
Wang's expression became complicated:
"But you shouldn't kill him like this. Armando is very angry at your public behavior. Although we have decided to release you, your punishment will not be waived."
He took out a crystal from his pocket.
"You have been convicted of three crimes of defying the law. You must clear your guilt within one year. Before your atonement is completed, all your honors will not be allowed to be used, and all salary and personal equipment will be suspended."
"You will be sent to perform high-risk missions. The General Army War Department will send someone to contact you based on the specific situation."
Rhodes felt relieved. The punishment was not too severe, and it might still be his chance.
As long as you find a way to make the "Resurrection Stone", no matter how dangerous the mission is, there will be no problem.
Wang handed the crystal into his hand.
"This is your resonance crystal. It records your guilt and honor. Keep it well. If it is lost, you must pay a thousand silver cords to the Holy Church for a new one."
Rhodes took the crystal carefully and asked, "What if the task is not enough and the guilt cannot be cleared?"
Wang Shi smiled and said: "This is impossible. Even if the task is not enough, your other meritorious performance will reduce your culpability, such as arresting the doomsday cultists."
Rhodes said with slight dissatisfaction: "Does this justice count?"
Wang shook his head slightly.
"Due to some special reasons, we cannot disclose Gregor's information. In fact, we have already suspected him. Although we cannot confirm his identity, we have also noticed some abnormal behavior."
Rhodes frowned, feeling a little angry in his heart:
"Then why don't you arrest him? Or monitor him closely. Do you know how many people he killed?"
There was something hard to explain in Wang's expression:
"Rhode, you have to know that Gregor's contribution so far still far outweighs his culpability, even if the sword pass is added. This is his resonance crystal."
He took out another crystal and injected a little spiritual energy into it, and countless words appeared on the crystal.
They are all Gregor's past achievements. The green ones are his achievements and the red ones are his mistakes.
There is a number after each line.
When summarized at the bottom, it shows that his honor is 9109 and his guilt is 2211.
Rhodes took a look at his own crystal. The entries were much shorter than his. While it was all green, the lowest end was red. The summary result was 151 for honor and 1,000 for guilt.
Wang said: "I have always disagreed with using numbers to measure a person, because it means that if you save a hundred people, you can kill a hundred people, but the pressure on Trolian has been too great in recent years, and we have to If we don't use every bit of power we can, even if it's a poisonous snake, we will use it before it causes devastating losses, and the resulting sacrifices will be inevitable."
"The most important thing is that the Adventist Sect is a deeply hidden sect. We want to use it to draw out more traitors. Too strict monitoring will not only be detected, but also involve too much power."
"Although the loss of Jianguan this time is a pity, it also gave us a good opportunity. But if you killed him directly, our clues were cut off directly. This is one of the reasons why Armando is so angry. one."
Rhodes didn't speak.
Although it was cruel, he could understand that killing a few people for the sake of the many was not a choice here.
Wang whispered: "In order to survive, we have to give up something."
Rhodes raised his head and saw fire shining in Wang's eyes.
"So, I hope you can grow up faster. Only with more new stars can we stand proudly on the earth, have human dignity, and avoid so many helpless sacrifices and tragedies."
The boundless holy fire burned blazingly behind him, making him look like some kind of condensed belief.
Rhodes couldn't help but asked: "Then why don't you stop the internal fighting among the candidates? Why have you been living in seclusion these past few years? Is it fun to have a thousand wives of yours?"
Wang's expression instantly became very complicated and dark.
He said softly:
"Little Rhodes, it seems you have some misunderstandings. I only have one lover. The law about partners is an ancient tradition that I can't change. The competition for candidates is deliberately indulged by the elders. They think the king needs some non-violent love." To integrate internally, competition will help strengthen their quality, but too vicious competition is not our original intention, and we will start to prevent it."
"As for my behavior in the past few years, I can't tell you for the time being. You will understand it later."
