The Last Dark King

Latest website: Horus is very happy.

As the third most powerful person in Trolian and the Archbishop of the Holy Church, he had not smiled like this for a long time.

Ever since the structure of the Holy Fire Source showed signs of collapse, dark clouds had always hung over his head, and the heavy pressure made it impossible for him to laugh.

But now, from the moment he opened his eyes, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Everyone felt that their archbishop, who was like a dead wood, had sprouted and ushered in a second spring.

And all of this is because of Rhodes.

The victory in Fanxing Town completely proved that expansion was feasible and sustainable. The expedition team led by Rhodes, with minimal effort, achieved gains that no one could have imagined.

The initial expenditure of the royal city was only a battle group of 100 people and supplies for 100 people.

Super large true silver veins, extremely precious solar crystal mines, a piece of extremely fertile land after purification, and a larger living space. Any of these gains exceeds the total expenditure by countless times.

The true silver veins greatly enriched the royal city's supplies, and many warriors were able to wear armor and weapons containing true silver.

The Sun Crystal Mine has even alleviated the huge gap in the royal city. Every day, more than 30 people are able to hold spiritual power upgrade ceremonies because of the Sun Crystal Mine mined in Fanxing Town. They are no longer unable to continue practicing spiritual power because they cannot improve their spiritual power level. .

Thirty people may not seem like many, but in a year there are more than a thousand people.

This increase in combat power cannot be underestimated.

And food is the cornerstone of everything.

Many lands are not suitable for planting even after purification, and the life breath of the Holy White Tree can only be effective in more fertile lands.

Trorian's current food production is actually no longer enough to support the population's consumption, and it is only supported by previous stocks.

Not only can crops be grown in Ghost Lake, but also clams can be cultured in the lake. The food production is expected to be extraordinary.

But the new living space is their most important gain.

The Royal City is too crowded, and the overcrowded slums breed too much filth and sin. The extremely harsh living conditions have made this place a hotbed of doomsday cults, and chaos has plagued everyone in the Royal City.

Since the ignition of Fanxing Town, a large number of poor people have been taken in and new jobs have been found for them.

With income, they not only have food, water, and houses, but also dignity.

The pastors of Fanxing Town described this in their report to the Holy Church:

"...Everyone has regained their faith in fire. They get rewards and happiness from the labor of their hands, and know that every drop of their sweat is valuable and contributes to the Royal City's victory over darkness."

For people living in this dark world, nothing is more important than faith.

It is the blood flowing in the body and the spirituality permeating the soul, which is more precious than all rare materials.

The reason why Trorian can survive in such a desperate environment to this day is because there is always a group of people who insist on this dreamlike belief.

If we lose our faith, this last human kingdom will collapse.

And everything that happened in Fanxing Town also sounded the alarm for Wangcheng.

For the first time, the Supreme Council discovered that so many people had lost their belief in fire and had degenerated into maggots who were only willing to roll in the hotbed.

Rhodes fought for humanity under such harsh conditions, but there were so many people stabbing him in the back. If anything went wrong, the expedition team would have been destroyed long ago.

Trolian, which suffered serious losses in the Kuroshio and abnormal celestial phenomena, had just improved a little, but then it took a sharp turn.

Even if Wangcheng later dispatched high-level combat forces to regain Fanxing Town, the blow to faith could not be recovered, and another new star of humanity fell before it could shine its light.

What a heartbreaking loss.

They took action without hesitation.

In fact, Fanxing Town has reported abnormal situations to the Supreme Council more than once, but the first elder Armando always believed that this was a deliberate trick used by Rhodes and did not take it seriously.

After multiple reports, only an ordinary self-examination was conducted.

But I didn't expect that someone actually exceeded the limit. They not only secretly destroyed Fanxing Town, but even attacked directly.

This is no different from doomsday believers.

During the investigation, a furious Armando suddenly discovered that the report submitted to him had been specially modified, and every detail suggested that Rhodes was a liar who was full of lies, seeking fame and fame, and enjoying great success.

If Trorian were likened to a ship sailing on a dark sea, its helmsman would be the First Elder.

The person at the helm was actually misled, which is an extremely dangerous sign.

Armando, who had never been so angry in many years, immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the incident.

At the same time, his position has begun to tilt towards Wang.

This is a very simple logic.

What the Doomsday Cult is so afraid of, and so desperate to prevent, must be something that would be very beneficial to Trollian.

The "Book of Destiny" is a semi-artifact that has many functions, the most important of which is to predict the future of destiny. The doomsday cultists who own it may have seen some clues.

Another reason for Armando to change his stance was the White Tower. "King of White Robes" Meredith and "Disaster" Yinetta also gave positive prophecies.

Therefore, Armando did not hesitate to delegate a large amount of authority to Horus and immediately purge the royal city.

However, despite changing his position, Armando did not immediately agree to Wang's new laws and further expansion plans.

It is very prudent to turn the bow of Trollian's big ship.

Rhodes must clear out the surrounding areas of Fanxing Town and establish an effective defense system before he and the group of elders will accept the king's plan.

And this is why Horus is extremely happy.

Armando didn't say it clearly, but Horus knew that the First Elder was ready to turn around.

For the first time, the Archbishop's orders flowed unimpeded in the Royal City. All his restraints disappeared overnight. Opponents were silenced collectively. Judges, judges, and clergy searched every house in the Royal City.

Although they hid well and destroyed a large number of clues and evidence, this was nothing more than delaying time.

It won't be long before he will uproot all those who have lost their faith in fire and sabotaged the Stars Town expedition.

Horus had never looked so high-spirited.

And all these changes were brought about by the little guy who was once ignored.

The only reason he was chosen to carry out the Holy Fire Plan was because of the last message from Theodore's soul.

Horus felt extremely overwhelmed.

He looked at the Holy Fire Sacrifice in the distance. The towering red buildings obscured everything, but he knew that the strange movements of the Holy Fire continued, and the turmoil in the Sea of ​​Origin was unprecedented.

However, he was no longer anxious, because the dawn of victory had appeared, and bright hope filled his heart.

As Trorian's spiritual leader, Horus felt for the first time that he had been saved.

Just the last step.

he thinks.

As long as the little guy quickly clears the Blackwater Swamp and Yin Soen ruins, the most difficult first step of the Holy Fire Project will be taken.

If the Holy Fire Project succeeds, it will not only resolve the biggest crisis in Trorian's history, but the Holy Fire will also become even more powerful.

The Holy Grail of Fire, which is directly connected to the power of the Holy Fire, is also more powerful. The Trial of Fire will therefore ignite more souls and give the ignited souls more power, allowing more people to become fire bearers.

Fire Bearers are the main force in the fight against darkness. Only more and stronger Fire Bearers can resist the invasion of black mist and give Trorian a greater chance of continuing fire and civilization in this dark world. .

and even achieve final victory.

Hurry up, hurry up.

For the first time, Horus felt such urgency in his heart.

King, please wake up quickly, Trorian needs your authority.

Only you can completely resolve this situation and eliminate all instability and variables.

In Fanxing Town, more and more people are dissatisfied with Rhodes.

In their view, this rising star with leadership potential should continue to lead them to advance vigorously, continue to sweep through the surrounding areas, occupy the entire Star Town, and create a large new human stronghold.

Instead of being obsessed with the opposite sex.

The most dissatisfied of all was Molly.

She reminded Rhodes many times and asked him to focus mainly on affairs. As long as he becomes stronger and wins more victories, the royal city can provide him with everything he wants.

However, Rhodes didn't seem to really take it to heart.

Molly had never seen Rhodes meditating and practicing, nor had she seen him exercise his psychic powers, practice his fire ability, or engage in the practice of igniting fire.

Of course, personal qualifications are different, and training methods are also different. It is understandable that Rhodes is from the secret branch and is good at breaking through in battle.

But in daily life, he doesn't manage the affairs of Fanxing Town very much.

If Rhodes doesn't have this talent, forget it. Molly can do everything on his behalf. That's why she travels with the expedition team. This is her essential job.

But he obviously has it.

It is no exaggeration to say that 90% of everything in Fanxing Town is brought about by him. Molly thinks that she has only done some trivial and detailed work, while Rhodes is the all-round leader with great wisdom.

But this leader, after solving the biggest crisis in Fanxing Town and winning an excellent situation for Fanxing Town, he actually became obsessed with trying to please the unknown person.

Molly came to him many times to report on her work and discuss further development plans, but he was always absent-minded. Even the black silk stockings became less attractive to him. Each time, he would touch her in a few haste and then remove her.

What's worse is that just now, he actually used eight million silver cords and gave it to the unknown person.

But he didn't even extend his hand to himself sitting next to him.

There are more and more signs that Rhodes is likely to be confused by the woman.

As the senior dispatcher of the General Army War Department, Molly often dealt with the Silver Oath and the Forbidden Armed Forces many times. She knew very well that Mavis was a freak with three forbidden characteristics.

One of these properties is mind control.

Molly invited the priests and soul masters stationed in the new church in Star Town, but they found no traces of Rhodes' control.

His soul was as clear as crystal, not even a trace of pollution could be seen.

It is said that this is the miracle brought by the black rice bucket, which can swallow filth and infection and prevent the soul from being corrupted.

The chief priest of Fanxing Town Church told her that Rhodes' mental resistance was extremely high and it was almost impossible to be affected by external forces.

So.

Now there is only one possibility left.

Molly made up her mind instantly.
