The Last Dark King

Latest website: The wrinkles on Armando’s face were all squeezed together, like dried orange peels.

"Rod."

he asked sternly.

"What is going on? Why are there so many bizarre thefts? And the victims are all opponents who have offended you. Do you know how many people have come to complain to me now? Saying that you are colluding with doomsday believers, what is wrong with dissidents? Those who see it will retaliate!"

An elder shouted: "Such a thing has never happened in the Upper City. It is the core area of ​​the entire Trolian and the place of light that everyone dreams of. How could such a vicious incident happen?"

Talinas and others are also here.

"Yes! This bastard must have done it!"

Talinas's eyes were red and his face was distorted. The years of accumulation that had been stolen filled him with rage, and the revelation of his secrets made him lose his mind.

"Kill him! Quick!"

Manolo Bana was also there, his face was ashen, the iron mask had long since disappeared, and the long face exposed was like a squat that hadn't been washed in a hundred years, black and smelly.

Rhodes had never seen such an expression before, and he almost burst into laughter. The depression that had accumulated in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

"This is a targeted revenge strike!"

There was an unprecedented intensity of anger hidden in Manolo Bana's cold tone. His losses were greater than Talinas's, and there were many things that could not be made public.

But he still maintained a basic composure and was not as hysterical as Tallinas.

"He is using his power to attack us based on his hatred for us."

"This kind of person is no different from a monster and must be executed immediately. The strength of Trolian lies in the overall structure and stable order. One or two people are not enough to affect the overall situation, and he is destroying our stability!"

"This is an intolerable crime, and no amount of merit can make up for it!"

Many victims on the side also shouted in unison, demanding that Rhodes be immediately deprived of all honor and imprisoned in an underground prison.

When this number 100 person shouted, the momentum was also astonishing.

But Rhodes was not afraid at all and said with a smile: "Which of you saw me stealing things? Why do you think I stole it?"

Talinas said angrily: "It must be you, it must be you, isn't it you or who else?"

Manolo Bana said coldly: "Search his mansion. There are so many things. It is impossible for him to hide them without any flaws."

Rhodes sneered: "Why do you search my mansion?"

"Some things don't need evidence. Your refusal is evidence."

"Oh? According to you, if you have ever refused my search, it proves that you are all doomsday believers?"

"Is this the same thing? Can this be confused?"

"Oh, my attitude is evidence, but your attitude is not? May I ask Lord Manolobana, what are you? Why are you so different?"

Manolo Bana was furious, clenching his fists, and his whole face was distorted.

Talinas was furious and wanted to come up and beat up this guy who made him extremely disgusted.

Seeing that this logic was blocked, an elder whose family property had also been stolen immediately changed the subject and shouted loudly.

"Rhode! As the captain of the King's Hand, you should be responsible for the security of the upper city. Now that such a big thing has happened, do you dare to say that you are not guilty?"

Rhodes sneered and said: "Your Excellency, Elder, please repeat the responsibilities of the King's Guard."

"Of course it's to guard the royal city..."

"Wrong, the King's Hand is part of the King's Guard. It is responsible for guarding the Holy Fire Sacrifice and the Royal Palace. It is responsible for the King's escort mission. It accepts the King's assignment and completes the King's order to ensure that the King's authority is fully implemented."

Rhodes paused and his voice became sharp.

"How did you become an elder when you don't even understand the responsibilities of the Hand of the King? Are you a doomsday cultist?"

The elder's entire face turned blue, and the group of opponents was completely silent.

The supporters around Wang all looked at him with admiration and reverence, and even Wang looked a little surprised when he looked at him.

This kid is much smarter than he looks.

Armando's cloudy eyes glanced at Rhodes a few times, and a bright light flashed in his expression, but it was immediately buried under the cloudiness.

"The quarrel ends here. Wangcheng is all about evidence. Mere speculation cannot convict anyone. The Internal Affairs Adjudication Office will use actual investigations to find the truth."

Tallinas said anxiously: "But, Mr. Armando, isn't this obvious? The only victims are his enemies, and none of his accomplices have been stolen..."

"Shut up!"

Armando's cloudy eyes with a chill in his eyes glanced over.

"What kind of good thing do you think you are? Do you think we don't know about the little things you do on a daily basis? If it weren't for the fact that you are of some use, for the sake of the overall situation of the royal city, you guys would have been in the underground prison a long time ago."

Rhodes smiled slightly: "Sir Armando, they can indeed go in."

Armando's cloudy eyes moved over, and there was something unexpected in his hazy eyeballs.

"Oh? What do you mean?"

As soon as Rhodes thought, the image crystal in his dream appeared in his palm and he handed it over.

"This is their evidence. They can prove that during the expedition to Fanxing Town, these people communicated together many times, crossed the bottom line, and killed us who were also humans, fighting bloody battles with monsters on the front lines, and opening up the dark world. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the entire crowd.

"What did you say?"

"This is slander, frame-up, and frame-up!"

"We definitely didn't do anything like this!"

"The bottom line of human beings cannot be violated!"

The yelling and scolding continued, but Rhodes remained unmoved and just watched them as if they were watching a monkey show.

Armando's expression became dull and expressionless, but Rhodes keenly noticed a flash of surprise and surprise in his eyes, thinking that they had already disliked the First Elder.

At the same time, he also realized that although Armando was annoying, he was only adhering to his position. The differences with the king were only differences about Trorian's future route choice, not for his own selfish interests.

The first elder took the image crystal, and spiritual energy rose from his palm and passed through the crystal.

His spiritual power is not very strong, unlike the king's spiritual power, which is like the scorching sun in the sky, but it gives people a sense of toughness that grows stronger with age.

After scanning the crystal with his spiritual energy, he confirmed that there was nothing strange in the crystal, and then he input the spiritual energy into it.

The crystal lit up immediately, and a picture emerged. There were several familiar figures inside, talking about something.

Although there was no sound, it was easy to tell what he was saying from his lip reading.

The picture of the recording crystal is very clear, and you can even see the subtle ripples in the air. The two phases are confirmed, and there is no ambiguity in what they said.

They were discussing how to destroy Fanxing Town and kill Rhodes.

Suddenly, there were several pops and several people in the crowd fell to the ground.

A large area of ​​​​people around them suddenly vacated, as if they were some untouchable creatures.

Suddenly someone shouted: "He, they are guilty! I have discovered that they are guilty a long time ago! I have drawn a clear line with them!"

"Yes, yes, me too!"

"Me too!"

The crowd suddenly burst into agreement.

Armando said numbly: "Klasso, Gore, Tolan, you have violated the prohibitions of the royal city, the fire priest, put them in an underground prison, deprive them of all property, and await trial."

In the Holy Fire Sacrifice Ground, it was so quiet that only the sound of the burning Holy Fire was left.

Fire priests in fiery red robes flew from a distance and took out several people who had collapsed on the ground.

In this absolute silence, Rhodes took out two more photo crystals and handed them over with a smile.

"besides."

Armando's expression remained unchanged, but he took the crystal very quickly.

Entering psychic energy again, two more scenes that could definitely kill people appeared on the screen.

Four more people collapsed to the ground and were taken out by the fire priest.

Rhodes took out two more photo crystals.

The crowd became alarmed and someone shouted: "Where are you from?"

"How could you... just record such crucial information? This is so abnormal!"

"Can images be forged? Is it a new technology from the Industrial Machinery Research Institute?"

"Impossible!" An elder denied: "The Institute of Industrial Machinery has not had any similar research projects recently."

"Maybe it's the ancient technology he acquired in Star Town!"

Doubts came from all directions, but a powerful surge of spiritual energy drowned the doubts under the waves.

Wang glanced over and asked gently: "Little Rod, can you explain their origins to prevent some people with ulterior motives from looking for excuses."

Rhodes rolled his eyes and thought of an excuse.

"I ignited a new fire that allowed me to see images of the past and record them in the Imaging Crystal."

As soon as the words fell, the entire crowd was shaken.

Some scolded, some jumped, some turned pale, and some questioned loudly.

"That's impossible, I've never heard of similar fire or properties!"

Rhodes shrugged: "Can't you just ask someone from the Industrial Machinery Research Institute to check it? I can also demonstrate it to you on the spot."

Armando said calmly: "Inform the Bald Master and ask him to come in person."

The bald master is the person in charge of the Industrial Machinery Research Institute, so the importance of having him come in person can be imagined.

Several fire priests followed the order and left, but within a moment, the bald master arrived at the holy fire sacrificial site.

He first bowed sincerely to the Holy Fire three times, then strode over and said with a bold smile: "Little Rhodes, we meet again, how about the condensed light I personally created for you? Isn't it very powerful? "

Rhodes smiled and said: "Yes, Bald Master, it helped me a lot, but I have used up the spiritual bullets. I hope you can help me make some more."

"no problem!"

The bald master laughed and looked extremely happy.

"It is simply the greatest honor of my life to be able to help humanity's rising stars. Ah, Your Majesty, First Elder, hello."

Armando didn't care about his roughness and said calmly: "Bald Master, start checking immediately. We need to know what his new fire is."

The bald master agreed immediately and took out a soul crystal from his arms. Without using any other instruments, he pressed one hand on the crystal and the other on Rhodes' forehead.

A dull spiritual radiance surged from his body, the light flashed in the crystal, and a strange outline kept changing.

"Well, the seventh fire is very, very powerful. I feel the ancient wilderness, the strong killing intent, the vastness, the mystery and beauty are its characteristics, and its flexibility and changeability are its attributes."

"It seems to be related to the stars, spinning, drawing, and moving. Oh, this must be a pipe. One end of it seems to be connected to the infinite past, and the other end is connected to the infinite future. Countless gravels are undulating in the middle, like the flow of time. Hourglass."

What he said at first was somewhat normal, but as he went on he became more and more outrageous.

"I understand! Its characteristics are related to time, I named it the Worm of Time!"

At the same time, the crystal displayed the soul text transformed by the soul wave of this fire, as well as the multi-lingual translation.

Although "Insect of Time" is a free translation, it seems to be relatively close to the original text.

Rhodes curled his lips. He was used to the terrifying translators in the royal city.

Compared with "rice bucket", "second shot" and "grass", this name is friendly enough.

The bald master laughed and patted his shoulder.

"As expected of our little hero! This fire is very powerful, you must exercise it well."

Suddenly, Talinas shouted: "No! I don't believe it! Who knew this wasn't a script that had been arranged long ago?"

Rhodes smiled and said, "What do you want?"

"You can use it now and show it to us!"

"good."

Rhodes agreed happily. He closed his eyes. After a few seconds, he took out another image crystal and input spiritual energy.

Everyone looked up and saw that the picture in the crystal turned out to be what happened in the Holy Fire Sacrifice just now.

Seen from a third party's perspective, everyone's reactions are clearly visible.

The Holy Fire Sacrifice is an absolutely forbidden area, and it is impossible for anyone to take photos secretly. Moreover, the start time of this photo crystal was even before Rhodes arrived.

Panic spread wildly, and no one could speak.

Rhodes proved with irrefutable facts that his fire had the ability to rewind time and that his image crystal had a normal origin.

The first elder suddenly snapped his fingers, and everyone realized that his silent spiritual energy had already been transmitted.

In just an instant, a large number of fire priests surrounded everyone, and a large number of fire protectors descended from the sky to guard in front of the holy fire.

Armando said calmly: "Take them all out."

As expected of the First Elder, he had already guessed it... Rhodes smiled slightly, and the image crystals continued to fall from his sleeves like magic, and soon they piled up into a hill.

"One hundred and ninety-seven copies in total."

Rhodes said.

"Involving one hundred and eighty-six masterminds and six hundred and sixty-seven participants, six hundred of them are sinners, sixty-seven are doomsday believers, and..."

Rhodes stretched out a finger and pointed at Chief Consul Talinas.

"He is the leader of these doomsday cultists!"

Talinas's eyes turned red on the spot, and he howled wildly and rushed forward.

But in an instant, dozens of fire priests descended from the sky and threw him to the ground. The psychic chains instantly bound his whole body, and a powerful seal immediately attached to his chest, suppressing all the psychic energy in his body. .

Talinas kept struggling and howling, cursing Rhodes, cursing the royal city, cursing mankind, and cursing everything.

Armando said calmly: "Take them all down and put them in an underground prison. The Internal Affairs Judgment Office and the Tribunal will screen everyone immediately. Don't let anyone go. Let the Industrial Machinery Research Institute immediately make ten copies of these photo crystals." , keep the file for storage!”

"yes!"

The fire priests immediately took everyone at the scene away, and the photo crystal was kept by a special person. The Internal Affairs Judgment Office and the Tribunal worked as quickly as possible to arrest the criminals who did not arrive at the scene.

The Holy Fire Sacrifice finally became quiet again.

The king looked at Rhodes with a smile: "Our little hero, you are really amazing."

Armando nodded slightly.

"If we don't clean up these pests, it will be difficult for us to continue with the next steps."

The first defense officer, Chang Lin, sighed: "Little Rod, I can't count how many times you have surprised us."

"Maybe you really are the legendary child of light."

Everyone laughed, and even Armando, who was always serious, showed a little smile.

However, in the friendly atmosphere, someone suddenly raised questions.

"Can this kind of fire see everything?"

Rhodes scratched his head: "Well, yes, there are no blind spots, but the time is limited. The farther away, the greater the spiritual energy consumption. I guess I can only see what it was a year ago at most."

"Then we have no privacy?"

Everyone frowned, the word privacy was rare, and it seemed very abnormal for someone to suddenly pay so much attention to privacy.

But what he said next made everyone feel that something was really inappropriate.

"Then what if he secretly filmed us taking a shower? I heard that even Lady Olivia, who is as powerful as the Moon Knight, was secretly filmed by someone, and that person has not been found yet."

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Rhodes.

——

——

In the end, Rhodes was not subject to any restrictions, except that he was prohibited from approaching private places such as bedrooms, toilets, and showers for no reason.

If it is necessary to get close, the psychic energy must be blocked.

Of course, this doesn't actually do anything.

The Book of the Past could see a wider area than they thought, and it was impossible to keep an eye on him sixteen hours a day.

Rhodes is not that kind of pervert, has no interest in candid photography, and is not interested in small movies - I have already participated in the battle myself, why should I watch small movies? Doesn’t Molly smell good?

To be honest, Rhodes has a huge change in her now.

She is not as boring as she appears, in fact she is not only super smooth, but also super smooth.

Her usually meticulous and serious image turned out to be a bonus.

However, everyone was letting him go as if they were guarding against a thief, which made people a little unhappy.

But this small unhappiness cannot be compared with the happiness brought by what is happening now.

The maggots in the Hidden King's City were wiped out by him. A large number of transformed and corrupted guys were imprisoned in underground prisons, and all the doomsday cultists who had infiltrated them were also taken out.

The work of the Internal Affairs Adjudication Office and the Tribunal has never been so smooth. They no longer lack key evidence, and they no longer have to rack their brains to dig up secrets.

As long as you find something suspicious, invite Rhodes over and that's it.

The Chief Adjudicator and Chief Inquisitor felt like they had discovered a treasure, and they wished they could keep Rhode by their side all day long.

The judges and judges have never been so powerful. In addition to the people convicted by Rhodes, they followed the lead and arrested a large number of people, and also used Rhodes to investigate a lot of suspects.

Afterwards, the entire Shangcheng District was completely wiped out.

A large number of doomsday cultists who had finally sneaked in were arrested one after another, several doomsday cults were destroyed, and many corrupted guys were dug out.

After this wave of cleansing, the atmosphere in the entire royal city was different. When we walked onto the street, even the air was much brighter.

Moreover, the numerous properties confiscated have also greatly contributed to the expansion of armaments.

And the biggest benefit is that everything becomes smoother and the obstructions are cleared away.

Only then did everyone realize that many of the difficulties they had encountered before had disappeared without realizing it, and every step was as smooth as oil.

There are no more difficult childbirths, no more setbacks and failures. This kind of happiness feels like flying.

And all of this was brought about by Rhodes.

Now, in this dark world of despair, many people already believe it.

he.

It will bring us light.
