The Last Dark King

Latest website: The East City Gate is not too far away, and Rhodes will arrive in a short while.

This is also the result of special training. In the past, he would only choose to ride in a hearse.

Far away, Rhodes saw Iron Wolf Wade and three others waiting at the city gate.

"very good."

Iron Wolf looked at his pocket watch.

"Punctuality is an essential quality for a hunter."

He held out his hand.

"Let me introduce, this is a big insect, a five-star hunter, a seventh-level combatant, a fifth-level psychic, a spiritual fire sequence, the soul characteristic is tearing, and his good tactical position is in the front position, such as forward, avant-garde main attack, avant-garde reconnaissance, etc. "

Da Chong is a tall man with dark skin and a very simple and honest appearance.

He shook hands with Rhodes in a friendly manner and said in a sincere tone: "I hope our cooperation will go very smoothly."

"This is Tiancha, a six-star hunter, a seventh-level combatant, a fifth-level psychic, and a spark sequence. She has ignited six fires, five of which are related to increasing strength, and the remaining one allows her to condense wind spears from the air. The general tactical position is the center, such as center fire support and center fire output."

Tiancha is a middle-aged woman with a beautiful face and not many wrinkles, but her gray temples make her look a little older.

She nodded slightly to Rhodes: "Nice to meet you."

Iron Wolf turned his head.

"And this is Mr. Dawn Blade that I told you. His star rating is not high, but his strength is good. He completed thirty-four sewer missions in seven hours. He should be trustworthy."

Rhodes suddenly had a bad premonition.

Could it be that this sewer mission has become his trademark? Wherever he goes, people will point at him like this:

"Look, that's the hunter from the thirty-four sewer missions at seven o'clock."

This is simply too bad. How can such an elegant and handsome guy like me be related to sewers?

But the other two didn't think so. They smiled exaggeratedly and stepped forward to hug him.

"Welcome to join us."

Later, after checking the lanterns and phlogiston on the three of them, Iron Wolf announced their departure.

To Rhode's surprise, Iron Wolf drove a rectangular car over.

It looks a bit like a bus, but has a thick shell and is wrapped with a metal fence engraved with strange patterns.

The strangest thing is that this is not a hearse, nor a motor vehicle, but a rickshaw.

Each seat in the car has a rocker. Only by turning the rocker can the car be powered.

This is too primitive. Where is your psychic technology?

After getting in the car, Rhodes couldn't help but ask: "Why don't we use a hearse?"

Iron Wolf glanced at him.

"Spiritual things are easily corroded and corrupted in the black mist. Tools driven by spiritual energy will generally not leave the range of fire unless there is special protection, while purely mechanical structures have no problem at all."

Da Chong smiled and said: "This is the latest hunter bicycle developed by the Industrial Machinery Research Institute. It will not get stuck as frequently as before."

net

Tiancha said in a low tone: "Special protection or spiritual stallions are too expensive, we can't afford them."

Rhodes resisted asking why we didn't walk over. He could only turn the joystick like the other two people did. Suddenly, he felt that they didn't look like hunters, but like hard laborers.

Tie Lang was in charge of driving, and it went very smoothly out of the city gate. The guards at the city gate let him go immediately after seeing the hunter's license.

So, this strange rickshaw left the royal city mixed in with the less crowded traffic.

Rhodes saw from the crystal window that the other convoys were also all kinds of strange, including horseless vehicles, human-pulled vehicles, mechanical rickshaws, buses, and a few floating vehicles.

Its civilization spans at least two thousand years.

When they drove to the royal city, the traffic immediately became sparse, and the rickshaw crashed into the boundless darkness, leaving the embrace of civilization.

This is the second time that Rhodes has officially left the royal city. This time, there is no protective fire, and everyone's remaining light can only illuminate their surroundings.

There was boundless darkness outside the car window, and thick black fog rolled in front of the window.

The sense of desolate terror once again hit us, and the rickshaw running at a speed of about a hundred yards seemed to be rushing straight towards the dark abyss.

The expressions of the other three people also became solemn, and Tiancha whispered: "No matter how many times I leave the royal city, I feel a sense of fear."

Da Chong comforted him: "Don't worry, we will usher in a stable day soon, and Trorian will definitely become stronger under the leadership of the king."

Tie Lang nervously held the steering wheel and held the astrolabe in one hand, constantly identifying the direction. His spiritual vision range was less than twenty yards, so he had to react very quickly, otherwise he would hit a rock, fall into a pit, or Collision with other teams would be bad.

Although hunters also have hunter duties and hunter honors, their main purpose is to make money in order to obtain a more stable life.

Avoiding unnecessary losses is their guideline for action.

Along the way, Iron Wolf introduced the details of the mission. He seemed to know that Rhodes was a novice hunter, so he explained it in detail.

Qingcao Town, where the mission is located, is about two hundred miles away from the royal city. It is a medium-sized settlement with about 100,000 people living there for a long time. Their specialty is a variety of grasses, ranging from tea to raw materials for elixirs.

There are two guardian fires and a small holy white tree in Qingcao Town. Thirty-two convoys pass by on the route. The annual output is converted into at least 100 million silver cords. It is considered a relatively fertile production place.

Therefore, threats that appear near it must be resolved quickly, otherwise it will affect the stability of the safe zone and the safety of the route.

Rhodes now knows that the so-called safe zone is this large area on the red clay plain.

From the map, the northern part of the Red Clay Plain is the Dead Mountains, and the eastern part is the barren mountain range that is a branch of the Dead Mountains. Between these two mountain ranges is the Red Clay Plains, Trorian's heartland.

Therefore, only by setting up defense lines in the west and south, this area will be safe.

Trorian's three layers of defense are all there.

Of course, the mountains are not completely safe. Trorian built a great wall along the top of the mountains to defend against threats from the Dark Plains to the north and the Hills of the Dead to the east.

Guarding the Great Wall is the famous Night Watch Legion.

An area surrounded by such heavy forces is called a safe zone.

The defense level in the safe zone is extremely high, and any threats must be dealt with as soon as possible. They must not be allowed to exist for a long time, otherwise they will gradually grow into deadly threats in the black mist and affect the lifeblood of Trorian humanity.

These threats usually come from sporadic monsters that slip through the defense line, unknown existences lurking underground, and monsters that appear here through the spirit world and other means.

Once they are discovered, the Survey Corps will quickly assess their threat level, and then decide whether to dispatch the defense force in the settlement on the spot, or form a hunting or eradication team depending on the threat level.

The monsters near Qingcao Town were judged to be a major threat. Due to the concealment of the monsters, the Military War Department decided to issue a mission to the Hunter Headquarters. This was also due to the lack of manpower due to the influence of the Kuroshio.

Most of the hunters in the hunter group have strong personal abilities and are good at tracking and hunting. They are suitable for small team operations and are best suited to handle such tasks.

It is also very suitable for Rhodes to hunt souls.

The rickshaw ran very fast on the plains, and only the Fire Bearers could drive it. It perfectly realized the process of converting psychic energy into power, and it also exercised Rhodes' psychic proficiency.

About three hours later, they arrived at Qingcao Town successfully.

This is a town surrounded by cyan and green, presenting a strong visual impact in the boundless darkness.

The moment they saw it, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.

The bicycle stopped at the edge of the town. After the four iron wolves showed their hunting licenses to the town's defenders, they were immediately warmly received. A large crowd came out and welcomed them to the mayor's hall.

Rhodes took a look at this small human settlement. It was full of green or green flowers and plants everywhere. Every house was surrounded by green grass. Many townspeople were bending down and working in the grass. In the bright light, , you can clearly see a pure white tree in the center of the town.

Its surface is crystal clear, like white jade or crystal, and a faint mist falls from the lush branches.

Is this the legendary holy white tree?

Rhodes thought.

They all said that this was the tree of life, and maybe there was something magical about it.

After a while, they arrived at the mayor's hall.

The mayor was an old man with a gray beard. With a sad look on his face, he introduced the specific circumstances of the attack to Tie Lang and others.

Iron Wolf, Big Chong, and Tiancha listened extremely carefully, keenly asking for any possible details, guessing the possible species, habits, behavior patterns, etc. of the monster.

Rhodes closed his eyes and carefully sorted out the items in the dream, taking stock of his various methods.

Although Iron Wolf didn't say anything, he was very dissatisfied. Anyone who doesn't pay attention to details is not a qualified hunter.

He decided to let A Duo join because he said he had a cool mind, keen observation, outstanding reasoning ability, and was good at tracking.

After the mission is completed, the guy's reward will be a little smaller.

he thinks.

I, Tie Lang, have always been selfless, and I will not give A Duo any face.

After a while, the mayor led them to the location of the attack.

This is the outer corner of Qingcao Town. It is composed of relatively solid stone houses, but now some of them have collapsed, and the protected inner grassland has also been destroyed.

Iron Wolf, Big Chong, and Tiancha listened to the details of the attack while carefully observing the destroyed site.

"The physical ability is very strong, it should be a monster type."

The big insect saw the cross section of the specially made stone and made a judgment.

"Maybe it's a blood-coughing monster, a crawler or something like that."

"No, that's not right." Tiancha denied his statement, "There are burnt marks here. Usually monsters don't have high temperatures. They may be ghosts with physical destructive capabilities."

Iron Wolf saw that Rhodes was still in a daze and said dissatisfiedly: "Mr. Dawn Blade, who has strong deduction and reasoning abilities, what is your judgment?"

"oh."

Rhodes suddenly woke up. Now he has mastered many ways to communicate with some beings in the dream without entering the dream, and he is indulging in it.

"What did you say?"

Tie Lang's face became even more gloomy, and he said in a bad tone: "Let me ask you, what kind of monster attacked here?"

The mayor and several townspeople turned their attention to Rhodes, feeling that something was wrong in the atmosphere.

Not far away, several girls picking flowers hugged each other worriedly. The hunter who came to rescue them seemed to be having internal strife. This was not good news.

"oh."

Rhodes didn't feel anything at all and replied.

"Okay, I'll tell you right away."

He squatted down, pressed one hand on the ground, closed his eyes, and sensed the book of the past in his mind.
