The Last Dark King

Latest website: Rhodes raised his hand gently, and the feather of wind flew up gently and sank into the obelisk.

In the deep surface of the monument, a star suddenly emitted a bright light, drowning the dream.

After a moment, the light shrank like a tide, the dream shook slightly, and the obelisk rose again.

Today it is a tower over a hundred yards high.

Rhodes noticed that a hidden hole appeared in the night sky, as if it was the location where it would be quantified in the future.

On the obelisk's surface, the light of [Phantom of Wind] became deep, like a veil fluttering under the moonlight, looming.

A line of text floated above the starlight.

【Phantom of Wind】

[Status: Origin]

[Position: above the spiritual world]

[Star Energy: Phantom of Strong Wind]

[Strength: 770000]

[Description: They don’t know that I miss the smile you gave me when you took the initiative to hold me. 】

——

A line of red text below.

The quantization of [Phantom of Wind] has begun.

Look down again.

[Phantom of Strong Wind]: The absolute resonance of the soul means that the summoned phantom no longer consumes additional spiritual energy. The perfect wind gives the phantom more powerful vitality.

Any damage suffered by the summoner will be transferred to the phantom until it disappears.

Each time it is used, it must reach a strong resonance state with the soul.

Current resonance level: 1%

——

The moment he read the text, Rhodes' eyes widened suddenly.

This is too strong!

[Phantom of the Wind], which has always had a weak sense of existence, has become unprecedentedly super-strengthened after being quantified.

The reason why the previous phantoms were useless was that the phantoms themselves were extremely fragile, and the damage suffered by the phantoms would be fed back into Rhodes' soul, causing heavy damage to him.

Moreover, the phantom's spiritual energy consumption is twice that of Rhodes himself.

Rhodes's powerful stars consume a lot of spiritual energy. If it were not for the lack of explosive output, there would be no need to use Phantom.

It is precisely because of the above reasons that [Phantom of Wind] is the star that Rhodes uses the least.

Although its capabilities are extremely powerful, its drawbacks are also very obvious.

But after quantification, it underwent a transformation.

The phantom no longer consumes additional spiritual energy, the phantom no longer deflects damage, and can even deflect the damage he receives.

Currently, Rhodes doesn't know how hard this phantom is.

But judging from the description of the skill, it shouldn't be particularly brittle.

In this way, this useless star energy suddenly turned into a super star energy without any side effects!

The only problem is that it has an extra resonance level, and it seems that it needs to reach a strong resonance state with itself before it can be used.

"Book, how long does it take for it to resonate?"

The Book of Knowledge replied: "When the resonance level reaches 80%, it can be used. It only takes one day."

"But the phantom summoned at this time is incomplete and relatively fragile. I suggest you wait until the resonance reaches 100% before summoning. The phantom at this time is complete and very tough."

“How long does it take to fully resonate?”

"The last stage of resonance is very difficult. It depends on your state. It usually takes between ten and thirty days. You can also actively meditate to resonate with it."

Under the guidance of the Book of Knowledge, Rhodes quickly learned to resonate with the [Phantom of the Wind].

He tried it and found that if he was efficient, he could reach 100% resonance in one to two days.

At this time, Rhodes was simply overjoyed.

[Phantom of Wind] is simply too strong!

Not only the star energy has undergone a major transformation, but also the spiritual energy has increased significantly.

The strength of 770,000 is only weaker than the 820,000 of Big Star [Power of the Titan].

Rhodes beamed with joy. He had already noticed a new force coming to his soul, as if his young and energetic body was filled with endless energy.

His soul power became stronger again.

"Book."

Rhodes turned around and asked.

"What level do I hold in your mind?"

The book of knowledge tried its best not to move the patterns on its writing, and said it in a tone as if it was holding shit.

"Master, you have broken away from the mortal realm and entered the extraordinary realm. In the era when I have residual memories, this is the threshold for fighting the real darkness."

It turned out that it was still the threshold... Rhodes was a little disappointed and asked instead: "What is the real darkness you often refer to?"

"That is outside the far boundaries of the four continents, in an area known as the Forbidden Place of Darkness. It is said to be the birthplace of the black mist, and the first black mist emerged from there."

Rhodes frowned.

"Continental border? What is the continental border?"

The Book of Knowledge paused for a moment. This part of the knowledge was also very heavy for it. With its current level of soul, it could not express it in voice and could only write it on paper.

"Continental boundaries refer to the limits of human activities. Real continents have no boundaries, and we don't know where their boundaries are."

"No borders?" Rhodes frowned: "How can there be no borders? Is there no end to the world?"

The Book of Knowledge slowly wrote: "The real end of the world does not exist. If you keep walking in one direction, you will only get lost in the infinite ocean of fog. For us, the boundary is the limit of human exploration. In this Outside the scope, everything is unknown.”

Rhodes was silent for a few seconds and asked: "Book, what is the world like?"

The writing on the book of knowledge became slower, and each word was written with great effort.

"If you want to describe it, the world is an island floating in the infinite spiritual world. But the island itself is infinite, and the spiritual world is also infinite. The material space is an incomprehensible miracle. How did the more primitive spiritual space evolve like this? The material space is a mystery that all gods want to know.”

Rhodes was silent for a long time. This world cannot be inferred using his previous conventional understanding. Its birth and formation cannot be explained by common sense.

"Book, let me ask a question. Are there other islands like ours in the ocean of the spiritual world?"

The writing in the Book of Knowledge became extremely slow, but it was still written firmly.

"No."

"Why?"

With a snap, the Book of Knowledge collapsed to the ground as if falling apart, with every corner spread out, showing its powerlessness.

"Master, these problems are too taxing for me, I can't bear them."

Rhodes was a little regretful. There is a price and consumption to obtain knowledge in the Book of Knowledge. This price decreases with the integrity of its soul. Now, the soul of the Book of Knowledge is much more complete than in the past. When asking these questions before, it at least A house's worth of rare supplies needs to be eaten.

Now, it can gradually recover by eating normally.

"Sorry, I've got a damn intellectual curiosity, maybe that's why I'm so good."

The book of knowledge moved, and it seemed that he wanted to speak out wild words, but when he thought of the consequences, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

"Master, we are going to light the eleventh star."

Rhodes suddenly became excited. After receiving the gift of fate, he already had 4.3 billion soulless souls and 15 soul firewood. This huge amount of resources was enough for him to ignite everything except under the big stars. Any star.

However, Yuan only had 8 copies, which restricted his choice.

The book of knowledge slowly turned the pages, and after a moment he happily wrote: "Yes, this star is the most suitable to make up for the master's current ability gap."

"It takes 800 million souls, 8 sources, and 8 soul fuel to ignite it."

Rhodes did not hesitate, picked up 8 pieces of soul firewood from the pedestal, and lightly touched the monument with his forehead.

The space flipped, and he came to the wasteland of souls again.

The Book of Knowledge guided his direction, allowing him to fly over the ashes of countless bonfires. In this quiet and dark land, only a few weak firelights were burning.

Soon, Rhodes fell down on the land where the bonfire ashes had become sparse.

In front of him was a pure white ash, slightly taller than Rhodes, and two white words emerged from the ash.

【blank】

This name is really weird, I don’t know what it is used for.

But Rhodes trusted the Book of Knowledge very much, and it never made any mistakes when it came to choosing stars.

He opened his hands and put 8 pieces of soul firewood into the ashes. With a thought, 8 pieces of invisible sources and 800 million soulless souls fell from the sky.

boom!

Pale flames rose from the top of the ashes, burning in the air with overwhelming momentum.

A line of white writing emerged from the flames.

【blank】

[Status: Constant burning]

[Star Energy: Time of the Sky]

[Injection: None]

[Add fire: none]

[Quantification: The Source of Emptiness]

[Position: Eternal Fire]

[Strength: 180000]

[Description: I held the torch high in the polar night and walked into the birch forest where she left. 】

——

[Empty Time]: This is the realm of emptiness. Fill your soul with emptiness and let your soul last in the current soul state for a quarter of an hour. Unless it dies, it will not be changed in any way.

——

After reading it, Rhodes froze in place and read it twice before he understood its meaning.

[Sky Time] can maintain the state of his soul at the moment of use. After that, no matter it is weakness, contamination, contamination, mutation, except for the death of the soul, any abnormal state will not appear.

It was not until a quarter of an hour later that these abnormal changes came.

Perfect match!

Rhodes understood it instantly!

This star is a perfect match for him.

You must know that most of the powerful skills Rhodes currently possesses are accompanied by powerful side effects. The soul weakness of [Colossus Power] and the soul consumption of [Red Tears] can directly make him lose his combat effectiveness.

If a hit fails to kill the enemy, that's too bad.

[Sky Time] perfectly makes up for this shortcoming, it can delay the weakness of the soul caused by using these stars until a quarter of an hour later.

In other words, within this quarter of an hour, he will remain as usual and will not lose his combat effectiveness.

too strong!

Rhodes looked up to the sky and laughed, even holding the book of knowledge in his arms and kissing it.

The Book of Knowledge covered itself with its pages and ran away: "Master, what are you doing? This is not allowed..."

In his ecstasy, Rhodes did not notice the words of the Book of Knowledge and cast his gaze to the top of the obelisk. The numbers there had changed to:

Soul Strength: 3302000

Soul Star: 11

Human nature: 21.22 million

Divinity: 2

Soulless soul: 3.5 billion

Obelisk: None

Soul Altar: 2 extremely great souls, 15 great souls, 11 very powerful souls

Spirituality: 32111

Source Energy: 23

Storage: 110,000 soul residues, 12 flowers of humanity, 30 nightmare materials, 7 soul firewood, omitted.

Special items: 7 Guardians of Darkness, 1 Immortal Spirit, 1 Twisted Scale, 1 Bell of Light

——

The divinity was originally 3 points, but the doll used one point before and it became 2 points.

Soulless Soul is the most consumed dream material, and it is used for almost everything. However, its number has increased instead of decreasing, and has soared to 3.5 billion. Rhodes will not have to worry about it for a long time in the future.

The source within the obelisk has been exhausted.

Due to the extreme lack of spirituality, part of the soul was sacrificed by Rhodes.

The soul strength has risen from 2.65 million to 3.3 million. According to past logic, his current psychic strength should exceed 6,600 kilometres.

Rhodes clenched his hands, took a deep breath, activated his spiritual energy to the limit, and punched out.

There was only one explosion, and a shock wave erupted in the air, which was more than a quarter larger than the last time in the training ground.

I became stronger again.

Rhodes was secretly happy.

The importance of the Holy Fire Project to mankind is self-evident. In this battlefield, stronger power means more divinity.

More divinity will not only bring him greater power, but also protect his path forward.

That's right.

Rhodes clenched his hands.

Whether it is to eliminate threats outside Star City or attack Star City, I must play the greatest role possible.

After all, according to the Book of Knowledge, he had just entered the palace of the strong.

Only in the war that concerns the survival of mankind can one be counted as one.

According to general psychic rules, the threshold for level 12 psychic power is 15,000 thousand ticks.

And he has to reach at least the thirteenth level of psychic power before he can consider advancing to the next level.

But under normal circumstances, Herrschers are usually level 14 psychics.

Without such strong power, it would be difficult to completely control the source law in the soul, and it would be easy to lose control.

From the eleventh to the thirteenth level of psychic abilities, they are all within the category of extraordinary beings. There are also people who have reached the fourteenth level of psychic powers but have not yet been able to advance.

Thinking of this, Rhodes suddenly felt that he still had a long way to go. Without igniting a few big stars, it would be difficult for him to improve his spiritual power to that level.

Ordinary stars can no longer satisfy his need for spiritual energy.

Rhodes set his sights on another big star that the Book of Knowledge had chosen for him.

【truth】

Its requirements are not high, it only requires 10 soul firewood.

According to the Book of Knowledge, this is the one with the lowest demand among the big stars, but in Rhode's opinion, it is still difficult to reach the sky by lighting it.

Because in addition to 10 soul firewood, it also requires a strong source and the soul of a king.

It is understandable that a strong source is needed to ignite any big star.

The key is the soul of that king.

Obviously, this requires Rhodes to kill a king-level monster.

The Soul Eater King who is about to invade is undoubtedly the best target, but the invasion itself is a huge test.

The most ideal way is that he can obtain the soul of the Star Queen in the battle of Star City twenty days later.

In this way, he will face the invasion of the Soul-Eating King with an unprecedentedly powerful posture.

Of course, Rhodes didn't have much idea about the crucial battle that determined the survival of mankind. No one knew what was in Starry Sky City or what the former Queen of Stars was now.

These are things that the king and those at the top of Trolian need to consider.

Although Rhodes is familiar with them, he has not yet reached that level and does not need to consider that aspect for the time being.

Fighting better and completing more tasks are the only things he needs to consider at the moment.

——

However, his weak state has not been lifted. Currently, Rhodes can only lie in the rocking chair and rest in the light of the remaining fire.

The sequelae of [Giant Power] are really too serious.

Rhodes was very dissatisfied and asked the Book of Knowledge: "Book, is there any way to completely eliminate the sequelae of [Giant Power]?"

The Book of Knowledge turned over the pages and wrote hesitantly: "There should be, but I can't remember it for the moment. However, in some of my impressions, this star does not seem to have such disadvantages, maybe because it has It’s not complete and quantified, and it’s not complete enough, so there are defects.”

"If it can be advanced to the next level, it may reach a more perfect state like [Phantom of Wind]."

Rhodes took a look and found that the source material required for [Colossus Power] was the "Colossus Core".

He noticed that, unlike the source matter of other stars, it was written in red letters.

"Book, why is it red?"

The Book of Knowledge replied: "This shows that this Sefirot is unique."

Rhodes frowned slightly. He remembered that the source material was condensed from the heavy turbid source law at the beginning of the world's formation and was scattered all over the world.

To put it simply, source matter is the condensed matter of laws, which has special magical power. Human beings generally use it to make powerful weapons.

"You mean, the source law it represents is the only one?"

The Book of Knowledge corrected his statement: "There is no unique explanation of source laws, and they cannot be repeated. It is only that some source laws have a larger scope and are broken into many fragments, so that there are plural sources of matter, and plural sources. Corresponding soul characteristics.”

"The core of the Titan is the highly condensed source matter of the source law. It has no division, so it is unique."

Rhodes asked: "What does it represent?"

The Book of Knowledge hesitated for a moment and replied: "Some kind of source law called 'Titan'. The light part is in the Sea of ​​Origin, and the heavy part is the core of the Titan."

Rhodes chin slightly, only by finding the core of the giant god can Xingchen fully grasp this part of the source law and complete the quantification.

However, since it is the only one, the difficulty of finding it has increased significantly.

Moreover, according to the law of gathering of black mist, the more powerful the substance, the more powerful the monster will be.

Obtaining it is certainly not an easy thing.

Rhodes buried it deep in his heart and planned to think of a solution after the Battle of Star City.

The quantification of stars is also one of the important ways for him to become stronger. Although controlling this source law is a dream, the power of the dream is also equal to his power. Only with more sources can the dream have more energy.

According to the Book of Knowledge, there are many weapons in dreams, and they all require energy.

The war between dreams and the spiritual world was the main theme of their time.

The Book of Knowledge even boasts that during the previous master's period, it was responsible for the battle in the dream world, and the master was responsible for the battle in the material world. In fact, more than half of the master's immortal glory comes from its light.

It's just that it didn't want to show up, so it gave up this honor to its owner.

However, although the doll did not express its opinion, the book of the future ridiculed it, so Rhodes was lucky enough to witness the spectacle of the two books fighting - it was similar to fighting with cats.

Rhodes looked at it for a while, then looked away and looked at the dream sky.

Now, he has 5 stars that have been quantified. They are [Dark Devourer], [Justice Execution], [Spirit Boat], [Elegy of the Spirit] and [Sense of the Gods]. In total, he has mastered a power equivalent to 23 sources. .

The quantified stars have connected to the sea of ​​sources. Every time you master a source, you can get a steady stream of energy from the sea of ​​sources.

Dreamland currently has 23 sources of energy.

There are also three stars on the way to quantification, they are [Bright Blue], [Star Shuttle] and [Wind Phantom].

When they are completed and quantified, there will be more source energy.

The stars that have not yet begun to be quantified are the three stars recently obtained, namely [Power of the Titan], [Red Tears] and [Blank].

Rhodes kept the source materials they needed in mind. If there was a chance, it would be best to obtain them.

If there is no chance, then you can only wait to find new dream fragments.

According to the Book of Knowledge, there is a dream building where you can find source matter and dream fragments.

If it can be restored, the speed of dream recovery will be greatly increased, and the stars will be quickly quantified.

Now, the dream is flying to the other side of the Kingdom of Light.

The Book of Knowledge plans to look for the remains of the ancient god there. If not, they will have to leave the Kingdom of Light. The longer they stay in an area, the more detrimental it will be to Dreamland.

The dream world is an existence against the spirit world, and the hostility of the spirit world will aggravate it. If something goes wrong during the invasion, it will be bad.

Their next destination is the Sea of ​​Chaos.

What Rhodes has to do now is to wait and occasionally control the dream bubble to get rid of the spiritual monsters that attack them.

——

During this day of rest, Rhodes sorted out his thoughts and cleared out all the messy threads. His thinking became extremely clear and he knew exactly what he was going to do.

Sure enough, sometimes, just doing it recklessly will not be effective. Proper rest will make the mind clearer.

After a moment, the time was up and the weakness of the Titan's power completely disappeared.

In an instant, Rhodes felt his whole body became lighter, and his soul no longer carried a heavy burden. This feeling was really wonderful.

He went through everything in his mind for the last time and made sure that there were no omissions. There were no problems with dreams, stars, psychic powers, divinity...

The only thing that is uncertain is the blessing of the ghost from the past and the mysterious ball.

The Book of Knowledge says it can sense the connection between the ball and dreams, but it doesn't know how to use it.

I don’t know what effect the blessing from the ghosts of the past has. The only thing that is certain is that it is a blessing, not a curse, and it is harmless.

Therefore, Rhodes did not delve too deeply into it.

But when he was about to leave the dreamland, Rhodes suddenly thought of something.

When he fell into the soul space, why could the doll activate its divinity on its own? Isn't that his authority?

Rhodes immediately called the puppet, and its answer was simple.

"When the master is in crisis, the people in the second sequence have control."

Rhodes nodded, it turned out that Avro was the second person in the dream.

That's right, this is what the number two character looks like.

The Book of Knowledge is indeed bragging.

He didn't think much, turned around and left the dreamland.

Star Ring Town.

In a plain room.

Rhodes jumped up, powerful spiritual energy surged in his soul, causing countless ripples in the space.

"Star City Battlefield, I'm back!"
