The Last Dark King

Latest website: Iyetta nodded slightly:

"The string of fate entangled in the king's soul is still obscure and deep. It is obvious that whether it is the erosion of the strange shadow, the invasion of the blood god, or the target from the supreme will, it is not fatal to the king. The crisis, his crisis, came from somewhere else.”

Rhodes' brows furrowed tightly. He never expected that the king's crisis was not over yet.

If it wasn't the strange shadow, the blood god, or the thorn of destruction, then what else could threaten the king who had become the god of mankind and was backed by the holy fire?

For this question, Iyeta has no answer.

"We have made many predictions and tried to trace the source of the crisis, but we have been unsuccessful."

Rhodes asked in a deep voice: "Why? Is it a lack of materials, or is there something more powerful that prevents the prophecy?"

The only thing he could think of that threatened the king was the ancient gods.

Iyeta shook his head:

"Not necessarily. The probability of success of prophecies tracing back to their origins has always been very low. This is not a problem that can be solved by strengthening the level of prophecies. The key lies in the method. If the method is wrong, the prophecy of the source will not be able to get the answer... The prophet of the White Tower We are studying this issue, and I believe it won’t be long before we can find the correct way to predict it.”

Rhodes felt relieved and said, "Your Excellency Iyetta, if you need anything for the prophecy ceremony, please tell me directly."

Iyetta showed a faint smile.

"I will, Lord Rhodes. The White Tower is Trolian's eyes, a lantern that penetrates the dark fog, a telescope on the mast, and a lighthouse on the dark sea. At any time, we will fulfill our duties faithfully. , let this great ship of mankind sail on this lightless ocean forever."

The Lord of the White Tower's answer reassured Rhodes a lot.

He didn't know why, but he always felt that this great prophet had a special penetrating power, and his predictions had a special charm that made people believe them unconsciously.

Perhaps this was an illusion caused by his shiny bald head.

That's right.

Rhodes thought optimistically.

Hair is the thread of troubles. After removing the hair, the prediction will naturally be more accurate.

To put it simply, baldness plus prophecy.

After leaving the White Tower, Rhodes silently made his first decision on his duty as acting king——

Anyone who wants to become a great prophet in the White Tower must shave his head.

Maybe this can help Wangcheng's prophecy level reach a higher level.

However, the real problem has not yet been solved.

As the king's injury worsened, Horus returned from Dalong City urgently.

But his joining did not bring about changes.

The king's injury still did not improve, and the pollution in his soul had not been eliminated under the suppression of the holy fire and the treatment of the bright light, and was even spreading.

The situation became very critical at that time, and Rhodes decisively summoned Trolian's top management.

"Everyone."

In the Holy Fire Sacrifice Field, Horus's face was extremely gloomy.

Ever since he became the King of Bright Light, he had never seen such an untreatable injury.

"Soul Master Priscilla and I have tried countless methods and methods, but to no avail. The corruption of the king's soul is continuing to spread, and because the true king's soul is too powerful, I cannot remove the contaminated parts. If this continues, for five weeks at most, the pollution will grow to an unstoppable level. Within fifteen weeks, the king's soul will be completely corrupted. By that time, even the legendary Will of Fire will be unable to save him. "

Jon asked eagerly: "Is there no other way? Doesn't brother Rhodes' dragon heart work? I remember you should have another one."

Rhodes shook his head slightly: "I do still have one, but the Demonic Dragon's Heart can only recast the body, but cannot recast the soul. In fact, this is impossible. The main pollution the king suffered is in the soul. "

Qingyu asked anxiously: "Baita, did Baita say anything?"

Rhodes told them what Iyeta said truthfully.

Everyone had different expressions. Horus hesitated and said: "It would be difficult to challenge a true king at this time... I'm afraid."

Rhodes nodded and said in a very solemn tone: "Yes, it is difficult. Pope O'Sullivan is very powerful and may not be much weaker than the Blood God. However, we do not have the protection of fire and fighting in the black mist is very disadvantageous to us. "

Horus' eyes turned to Rhodes, and there was something unclear in his eyes.

"Then your opinion is..."

Rhodes said solemnly: "If there is no other way, summon all the combat forces above the king level to attack the Saint Rael King's City."

Horus looked relieved, a little relieved, and a little regretful: "I support Lord Rhodes's opinion."

This was the first time that the archbishop gave Rhodes an honorific title. In the royal city, many people honored Rhodes in this way because he was Trolian's hero and an unparalleled genius.

There are also many people who refer to each other as brothers because they are brothers and sisters of Rhodes, and some people only refer to each other by his first name because they are his elders or have a special relationship with Rhodes.

Horus was like that.

He always called Rhodes by his first name because he was the Archbishop.

Rhodes has always been an impulsive, immature, naive and rebellious boy in his heart. This initial impression did not change until he was able to fight side by side with the king and jointly kill the ancient gods that threatened Trolian.

But now, he suddenly discovered that Rhodes was already a king-level strongman, a hero of Trolian, and a human leader worthy of trust.

At this moment, his mentality completely changed.

There were many people who felt the same as him. Dalin and Armando said at the same time: "I also agree with Lord Rhodes' opinion."

Aleihan, the first son of fire, smiled and said, "Me too."

Rhodes didn't expect that his opinion would be approved by the highest level of the Troli Security Agency at once. He originally thought that it would take a lot of effort.

At this moment, Aleihan said again: "However, after the Battle of the Blood God, our warriors were severely depleted and needed a period of repair and recuperation, and Percival began a new round of practice and improvement. , and Saint Rey’s royal city is very far away, so if there is any possibility, we’d better not take the risk to conquer it.”

Rhodes looked at Horus and Priscilla: "Is there really no treatment?"

Horus was deep in thought, but judging from his expression, it was obvious that he was not.

At this moment, Priscilla suddenly raised her head and said, "There is another way."

Everyone's eyes turned away.

Jon asked eagerly: "What method?"

Priscilla said: "The reason why many of our treatment methods are ineffective is because the king's soul is too powerful. The strength of the true king's soul far exceeds the limit we have ever seen. Any soul surgery is ineffective on it. We There is no way to cut open the soul body, even just the outermost corner, but purification methods cannot stop the spread of pollution."

Horus said in a deep voice: "This is the strangest thing for us. After countless years of treatment by Trolian, we have compiled a comparison table of the degree of pollution and the power of purification. Although the pollution the king suffered is very serious, it is not The table was not broken, but the corresponding purification power we used was completely unable to take effect on it. This is not an isolated case. When I was treating warriors in Dalong City, I discovered that purifying the pollution in the souls of warriors requires much more power than usual. "

"Before, I just thought this was a special feature of the ancient gods, but I soon discovered that the same was true for warriors who were not injured by the ancient gods. It was as if these pollutions became stronger in an instant. Of course, its The level of pollution has not changed, but the need to purify it is much higher.”

"However, the pollution suffered by the warriors was far less severe than that suffered by the king. The pollution caused by the Sting of Destruction was astonishing. I didn't spend much effort to cure them, so I didn't take it to heart. Unexpectedly, the king didn't. There’s a solution.”

"This is also the first time we have treated the true king's soul. It is conceivable that there will be situations that cannot be handled."

Priscilla said calmly: "So, we also need to use some special spells. The true king's soul is so powerful, we can use some beyond the conventional taboo methods to kill the corruption in the soul."

Jon said worriedly: "Is there any danger?"

Priscilla shook her head slightly: "Yes, these methods are fatal to ordinary warriors, even Herrschers, and kings, but for the king, he will only suffer a small injury, which is reversible. Compared to corruption, it’s not a problem at all.”

When they heard that Wang Hui was injured, everyone hesitated to speak and turned their attention to Rhodes.

Rhodes asked in a deep voice: "How confident are you?"

Priscilla replied calmly: "A little."

Jon jumped to his feet.

"A little bit? No, I firmly object. Brother Rhodes, let's discuss the crusade against the Royal City of Saint Reyer."

Qingyu also expressed his objection politely: "The danger is too great."

Although Dalin, Armando, Horus and others did not speak, it was obvious from their attitudes that they also disagreed. In their view, they would risk harming the king's soul just for the sake of a small possibility. This is not worth the loss.

However, Rhodes smiled.

As long as there is probability, then it's fine.

"That's great! That's it!"

Jon asked anxiously: "Brother Rhodes?"

Rhodes raised a hand: "Trust me."

With just these three words, all objections were eliminated.

Rhodes turned his head, looked at Priscilla, and asked with a smile: "Can we start now?"

Priscilla's eyes were slightly surprised, as if she couldn't believe his decisiveness, but she still replied calmly: "I need some time to prepare, and I also need Horus' help. It will be ready in about five days. "

Rhodes nodded: "Okay, but I have one request. I must be present when the soul surgery is performed."

After a pause, he added: "At the same time, preparations for the attack on Saint Rey King City must also be carried out simultaneously. In case of failure, we will implement the second plan."

This is the best choice and everyone has no opinion.

This was the end of Rhode's first meeting on his duties as acting king.

Everyone was very satisfied with Rhodes' handling and response, and Rhodes even gained some divinity.

Restore order, calm people's hearts, bring hope, divinity +10

Although these 10 points of divinity were not much, they made Rhodes feel elated. This was the first time he had obtained divinity through his wisdom.

"Hahaha, I am indeed a genius comparable to Xiao Ai."

However, the Book of Knowledge did not agree with his choice.

"Master, I have a hunch that if you use soul surgery purely for treatment, the probability of success may be extremely low. We may need to spend more colorful dreams than we can bear to ensure the success of the soul surgery."

Rhodes frowned and said: "Book, why are your premonitions now almost as good as those of a magic stick? The predictions of the Book of the Future are not as accurate as yours, right?"

The Book of Knowledge waved the page and said angrily: "Master, this is inspiration related to knowledge, not an illusory prophecy. It is based on logic. It's just that my knowledge characteristics allowed me to skip logic and obtain results. …My soul is now nearly complete and recovering well, so I have a lot of inspiration!”

Rhodes smiled and said: "Don't be angry, Shu, I was just joking."

After a pause, he said cautiously: "Book, no matter how many colorful dreams I spend, I will save the king. You should know better than me what he means to Trolian and to the entire human race. And , maybe there is a lot of divinity in it.”

The book of knowledge turned the pages but said nothing.

Indeed, the master's words were so right that there was no room for refutation.

Rhodes smiled and patted the seam of the book: "Books, sometimes, people who don't care about gains and losses can get more... By the way, how are the recovery of the Book of the Future and the doll?"

The Book of Knowledge replied dully: "The Book of the Future recovered very quickly. I provided plenty of Soul Flowers and Spiritual Flowers. This guy is happy as long as he has something to eat. The soul swishes and eats. It is expected to take several days." It will wake up after that. As for the doll, it is too seriously injured. In addition to a large number of soul flowers and spiritual flowers, it also needs a lot of origin soil. "

Rhodes nodded. The original soil is a common source material, representing the earth, and is a common core material for various man-made objects.

There are quite a few of them in dreams, and it’s not difficult to get some more.

"How many days until Dreamland enters a new spiritual world area?"

The Book of Knowledge mused: "We are at the junction of the five areas of Demonic Wilderness, Shadow Realm, Nest of Destruction, Castle of Dead Souls, and Long Tower. This is a rare multi-border junction area. I only recently figured it out. Characteristics, Master, you can choose any area, but I suggest that it is best to have a long tower.”

Rhodes was surprised: "Why?"

"The high-level spiritual world area called the Long Tower is relatively conservative and safe. Before you become the true king, I don't want to encounter such danger again."

The Book of Knowledge refers to the terrifying existence encountered in the Demonic Wilderness. Rhodes is still frightened when he thinks about it now.

"I know, then let's build a tower."

Rhodes waved his hand and made a decisive decision.

"This name sounds very safe. Book, I suddenly discovered that the names of areas in the high-level spiritual world are very special."

The Book of Knowledge jumped into the House of God, manipulated the direction of the dream, and replied casually: "Of course, each area corresponds to different characteristics. As long as we can purify and control all areas, we will also control the world. Center, by then, we will be able to completely purify the black mist."

Rhodes nodded and asked: "Shu, what do you think is the king's crisis?"

The Book of Knowledge pondered for a moment and then replied: "Master, do you still remember the words of Pope Saint Rey? At that time, he asked you to tell the king to be careful of human beings and demons."

"Human demon..."

Rhodes fell into deep thought. He remembered seeing it from the soul of Weird Shadow. The human demon is the human nature cut off by the ancestor of Weirdness. It is the aggregation of infinite amounts of corrupted human nature. It will produce Weird Shadow, from the level of will. Corrodes the soul.

But at the level of a king, he will not be afraid of the invasion of will.

What's more, there are still dreams.

Rhodes thought for a moment and was about to ask a new question when Asa's voice suddenly sounded in his dream.

"Master, I woke up. I digested some of the evil thoughts and obtained many of their memories. One of them is very important. I want to tell you right away."

Rhodes looked at Asa in surprise: "What memory?"

"It's about the throne of God Gentian."

Asa gently flicked his finger, and a deep hazy yellow fog enveloped Rhodes.

Rhode's eyesight went dark, but soon brightened slightly. Looking back, he was surrounded by thick and deep darkness, and could only vaguely see a huge stone monument.

Isn't this the stone tablet that records the evil thoughts of all human lives?

Rhodes looked up, and sure enough, on the top of the stone tablet, he saw the name of the Throne of the God of Origin.

A strange voice sounded in my ears.

"The throne of the God of Origin, the source of miracles, and the greatest threat to the Lord, must be eradicated completely. It will bring us endless achievements and make us the king of evil thoughts and the envoys of the Lord."

"The Throne of the God of Origin uses fire as its source of power. The more powerful the fire, the more powerful the Throne of the God of the Origin. It is like a boiler. The stronger the fire and the greater the energy, the more powerful the breath of the Origin will be, touching the probability of Gears make everything impossible possible, so the throne of the God of Origin can only appear in the chosen ones of fire, focusing on screening every soul with the characteristics of eternal fire. "

Rhodes immediately realized, isn't this the sound of evil thoughts?

Judging from the content of his words, he is obviously a leader-level figure.

But he has heard the voices of Ahe and Ake. Could it be that this is the evil thought of Alan?

Unfortunately, in this memory, there are no human figures, only voices and stone tablets.

When the sound ends, the scene in front of you also disappears.

Asa said: "Master, this memory has revealed the details of the throne of Yuantian God. Understand its foundation, and you will know how to make its owner stronger. Master, this will definitely bring you With more divinity, you will be able to light the [Sacrifice] soon!”

At this moment, Rhodes was overjoyed.

This memory is so important, Asa really made a great contribution.

"Well done, Asa. If you still have such important memories, tell me immediately."

Asa replied happily: "Of course, my master, your most loyal servant will always serve you. Your stool is the direction of my efforts."

Fortunately, this joy was strong enough and did not make Rhodes disgusted by Asa's words.

"It seems that this sacred fire seed is very important to the king."

Rhodes clenched his fists, thoughts rolling in his heart.

"If you can obtain this holy fire seed, it will not only heal the king, but also allow him to step onto a higher level."

"Not only that, a more powerful holy fire has extraordinary significance to all human beings. We will have more newcomers who have passed the trial of fire. The promotion of the strong will be even greater, and everything related to fire will be improved." strengthen."

"However, it is too dangerous to attack the Holy Fire Sacrifice of King Saint Reyer at this time... If you are not careful, you may ruin the good situation. What should you do?"

Just when Rhodes was lost in tangled thoughts, the Book of Knowledge suddenly spoke.

"Master, you can go and take a look first."
