The Last Dark King

Under the city wall.

Extreme silence enveloped the place, and everyone bowed their heads in silence for their Archbishop.

To be fair, Horus is definitely not a waste. Even if the bright light is obscured by the black mist, he has reached the limit of what he can reach. After receiving the inheritance of the King of Bright Light, he has also shown his due combat power.

However, he was Archbishop of Trorian.

He should be one of the most powerful pillars of Trolian, should be able to easily change the trend of a war, and should be the core of most powerful people. He is so eager to achieve the self he imagined that he He has become too impetuous. If he can be given enough time to settle, he may be able to reach that level.

But there is no if.

At this moment, Rhodes felt extremely complicated.

The Archbishop lived in such a shadow all his life. At the end of his life, he handed over everything he had. He considered everything, squeezed out his value as much as possible, and retained human power. And it played a vital role in this battle between humans and demons.

Horus is not useless.

He is a hero.

Rhodes collected his ashes and placed them in the Eternal Square of Dreamland.

But Eternity Square didn't respond.

The Book of Knowledge said: "This ashes has been exhausted. It is even thinner than the ashes of the Red God of War. There is almost no trace of spiritual remnants or power. Eternal Square cannot erect a statue on such ashes." , I doubt that even with the Eternal Dream, we can’t erect his eternal statue.”

Rhodes didn't care, and said calmly: "Just put it here. The complete Eternal Square has a chance of raising a 'special' eternal statue. I believe that one day, the statue of Horus will stand Here, after I kill the black mist, I will use its body as a meager sacrifice for the deceased and offer it to the soul of the deceased."

The book of knowledge turned the pages and said nothing.

The owner's statement is correct. There is indeed a certain chance of a special eternal statue rising in the complete Eternal Square. It requires almost no conditions, but the probability is too low, so low that even the "Eternal Dream" cannot be realized.

As for "killing" Black Mist, that is even more of a distant dream.

In the past tens of millions of years, countless great and powerful people have not been able to do it. The Book of Knowledge does not expect this generation of dream masters to be able to do it. It only hopes that the master can continue the fire forever and allow humans and dreams to continue. , and will not become extinct.

Later, the doll also returned to the dreamland and briefly reported to Rhodes the battle situation of the "Human Coalition Forces".

It has to be said that under its command, Trollian's warriors displayed a combat effectiveness far beyond their previous capabilities. Throughout the battle, they killed countless human-demon derivatives, laying the foundation for their victory. An indispensable foundation.

The Book of Knowledge smiled and said: "This is the Avro known as [Heaven Above]. It was once the commander of the human coalition. It can enable a hundred people to exert a thousand combat capabilities."

Facing the praise from the Book of Knowledge, the doll seemed very calm: "These are just some basic fighting methods. It allows humans to unite in a more efficient way to fight against more powerful enemies. Trorian's warriors are currently There is a huge gap from the original human coalition."

Rhodes had an idea and asked, "In that case, why don't you train them?"

The puppet said lightly: "My memory is not complete. Although I have recalled a lot through meditation, there are still many gaps. The most important thing is that my soul is still missing a key part, my weapon. Still missing the Sword of Glow.”

Rhodes frowned slightly: "Isn't your weapon shaped like a spear?"

"The Sword of Glow is a sword and a spear."

The Book of Knowledge also shouted: "I am missing too, my soul is also missing a part, the most critical part. It makes me not like a Book of Knowledge at all, but more like a book of mental retardation!"

Rhodes glanced at it suspiciously. The Book of Knowledge always attributed its mental retardation to problems such as lack of soul and lack of knowledge. Although it did have such problems, Rhodes suspected that it was originally mentally retarded.

"I know, I will find the next dream fragment as soon as possible."

At this time, Asa also returned to the dreamland. He looked downcast and unhappy.

"I found no filth or feces. This trip was in vain and there was no gain."

Rhodes asked in slight surprise: "Corrupted human nature, isn't it? There is infinite amount of corrupted human nature in the human demon's soul."

Asa shook his head: "Corrupted human nature is a profound condensation, and it must be infinitely 'precipitated' to produce pollution. After ending the extreme pure human nature, corrupted human nature can no longer produce that kind of terror. To put it simply, it is not 'extreme' Corrupting human nature is useless to me.”

He sat back down in his old spot and resumed digesting the devouring evil thoughts.

Rhodes glanced at the human-demonic soul sealed in the soul altar.

Sure enough, the human demon is an ancient god with 25 parts of the root source. One part of the root source corresponds to one part of the deified source material. There are fully 25 parts of the deified source material in his soul. These two gains are enough to be called a god. It's abundant, not to mention that he still has 25,000 divinity and 25,000 nightmare fuel.

With so many resources, what can stop him from growing?

However, it is not that simple to use these resources. He must first retrieve the other half of the Giant Divine Sword, and then find a way to find the source matter of [Eye of God] and [Glutton], so that his soul can Carrying the twenty-first star.

More importantly, he had to collect the dream fragments as soon as possible.

Now, unless some special circumstances arise, there should be nothing stopping him from collecting dream fragments.

If nothing else happens, the dreamland is about to undergo a rapid recovery.

As soon as I clean up the mess, I set out to find the pieces.

Rhodes thought.

With his mind determined, he came to the "Celestial Sphere Clock" and touched the surface of the sphere with his fingers, and the strange celestial sphere began to rotate.

After a moment, the celestial sphere stopped, and a new vision appeared on the sphere - it was a desolate desert, and the extremely thick black fog made it difficult for him to see the surrounding details.

But it doesn't matter, the "Celestial Sphere Clock" will put the coordinates into his mind. Rhodes calculated in his mind for a moment and accidentally discovered that it should be deeper in the dark plain.

"There should be nothing unusual."

Rhodes thought to himself, memorizing its coordinates, and then left the dreamland.

——

With the fall of the human demon, the strange disaster has completely ended, but the situation has not improved. All parts of Trolian have been severely impacted. From the Tomb of the Human Demon to the straight line from the Trolian Royal City, Almost total destruction.

Olivia and others brought some not-so-good news. The damage and losses suffered everywhere were greater than imagined.

The royal city has also been greatly affected. Several sections of the city wall have been completely damaged. After evaluation by professional scholars, it is extremely difficult to repair.

Surprisingly, they found a large number of giant bones in the section of the city wall. Those dense white bones were buried in the center of the city wall and became part of the city wall.

After research, the great scholar Barrett discovered that these giant bones were not buried in sacrifice, but a way to strengthen the city wall. Their bones supported the special structure of the city wall in a specific way. Because of this, the walls of the royal city , to have such high intensity.

"We are working hard on this particular structure."

Professor Barrett said.

"If we can find its principle, we can create a war golem with higher strength."

Rhodes agreed with this and promised to provide all the help they needed for this project.

Now, most of Trolian's affairs are decided by him.

The king is still in a coma, and Horus and Kai have died. Now he is the only true king in the royal city.

Although they defeated the strange disaster and successfully survived this crisis of destruction, the price was unimaginable.

The Lord of the White Tower, Ieta, has seen that after losing the king's resistance, the pollution in the starry sky is accelerating, and the concentration of black mist is rising sharply.

Trorian's post-war recovery work must be completed as soon as possible.

Everyone devoted great efforts to restore the losses caused by the war.

The Star Marrow Altar opened almost immediately, and the barrier once again obscured Trorian's territory.

The occupied area outside the barrier can only be abandoned.

Although it is extremely regrettable, the occupied area includes the homeland of Saint Rael, the homeland of Talanor, and the large area between them. It can be said that before the strange disaster, Trorian had occupied half of the Ashland Continent.

After giving up, Trorian turned into the peaceful Kingdom of Fire.

But everyone was not discouraged.

Rhodes' theory of people has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. They believe that as long as people are around, the abandoned areas will be reoccupied sooner or later.

Although Trolian has suffered some setbacks, he will eventually stand up.

The most important thing is that although the occupied territory was abandoned, Trorian has already grabbed a lot of resources from it, especially San Rey and Talanor.

As long as these resources are digested, it will be enough for Trolian's combat power to increase to two levels.

Rhodes also told everyone that they had gained a lot from the Tomb of Humans and Demons, including the "flesh and blood of God" containing four elements, the "divine stone" at the core of the ascension ceremony, and the key carrier "deified source matter" ”, they all gained a lot.

Based on previous experience, these resources are enough for Trolian to give birth to multiple true kings.

It is precisely because of this that their abandonment is only temporary. After a brief sting, Trorian will surely soar into the sky.

However, with this exciting future, there is also some not-so-good news.

After a day and night of treatment, soul master Priscilla came to tell Rhodes that Wang's condition was worse than imagined. His soul had been extremely distorted and eroded, and he had not yet awakened.

"The distortion of the damage is extremely deep, reaching almost every element that makes up the soul. If Lord Horus is still there, there may be a way to cure it, but we cannot do such in-depth soul healing."

Priscilla's words were full of deep regret.

This also reminded Rhodes of another good thing about Horus. After he became the King of Bright Light, he cured almost all the seriously injured and severely corrupted people in the royal city. After that, except for those who unfortunately died on the spot, In Trorian, there were no seriously injured people or those who died from their injuries.

A soul master asked: "Where is Mr. Taylor?"

Rhodes replied: "It seems that because he rashly accepted such a huge power, Taylor is still in a coma, but the situation is relatively stable. The light particles show no signs of rejection or loss of control. On the contrary, it interacts with Taylor's soul." It’s quite close, just like fish in water.”

Priscilla pondered: "Perhaps, it is because of this that Taylor has not awakened... The power is too powerful, far beyond his limit. It would be okay if he accepted it slowly, but it happened so quickly. … It was a huge burden on his soul.”

Rhodes asked: "What should we do?"

Priscilla replied: "We can only wait for him to adapt slowly."

Rhodes's face darkened. Without the King of Bright Light, the King's injury would not be able to be treated.

As long as the king does not wake up, Trorian will have no backbone.

What's worse is that after the strange disaster, the strength of the holy fire has been greatly reduced, and it has fallen back to before the first strengthening.

The phlogiston and firewood in the royal city have all been exhausted. Before the war between humans and demons, the king put all the phlogiston and firewood into the holy fire, resulting in no phlogiston and firewood available.

Without enough phlogiston and firewood, the sacred fire gradually became dimmer.

The royal city is working hard to produce phlogiston and firewood, but the quantity is too small to stop this trend.

The light of the fire has retreated to the inner city and is still shrinking.

The royal city became dark again.

Everyone is anxious. Jon, Qingyu, Starsong, and Evra, the four Chosen People of Fire, guard the Holy Fire all day long, constantly injecting power into the Holy Fire, but they are not the guardians of the Holy Fire, and they do not resonate with the Holy Fire.

That little bit of power is very weak compared to the Holy Fire, so it doesn't help.

If the king does not wake up, the Holy Fire will have no guardian, and this weakening trend cannot be stopped.

"no."

Rhodes said.

"The king must be cured."

Priscilla's delicate and petite face wrinkled together. The greatest soul master had never been so sad at this moment.

But she couldn't refuse Rhodes' order. The king's awakening was Trolian's top priority.

In desperation, she could only unite all the soul masters and use all means to treat him.

Rhodes also asked about the Book of the Future and the Book of Knowledge, and determined that in this case, [Eternal Dream] is invalid, and [Demon Dragon Heart] cannot solve the problem. The king's soul has been damaged and polluted. There is no point in reinventing your life.

"Sir Rhodes."

One day later, Priscilla came back to him, her tone full of exhaustion and loss.

"We can't do it. We have tried all means. The king's injuries are much more serious than expected."

Rhodes' heart sank. He never expected that he would not be able to wake up even though the king's crisis was over in the prophecy.

The situation is worse than expected.

In desperation, he could only follow his last experience and put the king into the depths of the holy fire, waiting for the holy fire to nourish and purify his soul.

Ietta is the best prophet in thousands of years, and the White Tower is Trorian's only true artifact. Their predictions should not be wrong.

Then, Wang should not be in danger, and it is only a matter of time before he wakes up.

After thinking about this clearly, Rhodes felt relieved, but the situation did not change. On the contrary, due to the weakening of the Holy Fire, a series of chain reactions occurred all over Trolian.

All the protective fires have become weak, and the range illuminated by the fire has been greatly reduced.

The afterglow and residual fire attached to the existence of the guardian fire have also become weaker. The entire Trolian fire field is weakening, and the thick black mist is quickly approaching Trolian.

To make matters worse, due to the reduced intensity of the fire, the combat effectiveness of all fire warriors declined rapidly, and the fire bearers were greatly affected.

The pressure on Sword Fortress, Dragon City, and Wind City increased sharply.

More monsters also spawned within Trorian.

Defense becomes heavy.

As the Holy Fire weakened, the Holy Fire received more attacks in the spiritual world, and Jon and others could not leave even a step.

The most troublesome thing is that as the fire weakens, the promotion of all warriors becomes slow.

The ascension ceremony can no longer be carried out.

The Book of Knowledge told him that this was an improved fire ascension ceremony that required strong firelight.

When the fire is weak, it is difficult to carry out. Even if it is done forcefully, the probability of success is very low and the effect is not good.

At this moment, Rhodes' heart sank to the bottom, and at this moment, a voice appeared in his ears again.
