The Last Dark King

Latest website: The two special combatants quickly disappeared behind the black mist.

Horus put down the Silence Stone, closed his eyes and entered deep meditation.

He was too tired and needed a good rest.

Under the warm firelight, everyone was meditating or sleeping deeply. The orange firelight blocked the flowing black mist and condensed black ashes, allowing the world to be bathed in the blessing of fire, and the souls of the people of fire were warming. Recuperate in the light.

Beyond the firelight was a field of decay and gloom, and there seemed to be ominous shadows in the depths of the darkness. This ancient royal city, which had been destroyed for thousands of years in the unknown and strange, was like a giant beast that had been strangely silent for a long time, as if it might explode at any time. Wake up and devour this small piece of fire.

When resting in the dark, you must have a pair of eyes open. This is the most basic principle of combat.

Among the more than a hundred first-level combatants, Olivia and Misha were the ones keeping watch.

Misha dragged his body covered with thunder and lightning to the other side. In the silent environment, subtle crackling sounds could be heard.

Rhodes greeted her, but she ignored him.

This guy is really strange, and I don’t know why he became the Son of Fire.

Rhodes looked at her back, his thoughts fluctuating in his heart.

Olivia adjusted her armor and drank several bottles of moonlight-gleaming potions.

"Little guy, go get some repairs. Tomorrow will be a tough battle. I hope you can surprise us again."

She said with a smile, as if the moonlight was shining in her pure eyes.

"I can understand the mentality of Horus and the others now. It feels good to have expectations."

Rhodes scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Of course."

Olivia smiled, her long dark blue hair flying in the breeze, her snow-white skin like the bright moonlight, and her beautiful appearance making her look like the moon goddess came to the world.

"It's amazing that you can maintain such a mentality in such a severe environment. Maybe this is the factor of your success."

Rhodes smiled and said: "The world is already so dark, why should I wrap myself up in depression, value the enemy in will, and despise the enemy in mentality. Only in this way can we better exert our strength."

Olivia's eyes lit up and she praised: "Little guy, no wonder Alan has always been so optimistic about you. With this kind of thinking, many people are far behind you."

Rhodes said modestly: "Yes, in terms of being heartless, there are very few people who can compare with me."

Olivia was almost amused by him: "Little guy, you are so interesting. After the battle of Star City, I will definitely come to you for in-depth communication... But now, it's time for you to rest."

Rhodes nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Sir Olivia, why are they going to clean up those remaining monsters? Aren't we already here?"

Olivia's expression became solemn, she thought for a moment, and then explained the matter to Rhodes in detail.

In the original plan, in addition to the time issue, there was another serious problem - the problem of disturbance when fighting the Queen of Stars.

There is no doubt that the huge Starry Sky City is impossible to empty, so the disturbance caused by the fierce battle is likely to attract the monsters in the city.

With the size of Star City, even one percent of the monsters would have devastating consequences.

And it is impossible to cover up the fluctuations of the king-level battle, whether it is the Bell of Silence or the more powerful Stone of Silence.

Fortunately, there is a very powerful barrier outside the Holy Fire Sacrifice.

It is exactly the same as the barrier outside Starry Sky City.

This unknown barrier can be blunted and absorbed by combat waves, and then emitted from the outer barrier of Starry Sky City.

This is something that Liszt, the commander of the Survey Corps, determined after conducting many probes. He found that his probe waves often emitted from the other side outside the Star City in a strange form. After testing several times, he discovered that The unknown barrier at the Holy Fire Sacrifice is exactly the same as the barrier outside the Starry Sky City, and the inner barrier can refract disturbances to the outer barrier.

Therefore, once the battle begins, Star City will inevitably emit huge disturbances to the outside.

It was also because of this that they had to clean up the battlefield outside Star City.

Due to this obstruction, Liszt was originally unable to detect the interior of the Holy Fire Sacrifice.

However, they soon thought that the disturbance inside the sacred fire sacrificial site would also be transmitted through the inner barrier to the outer barrier and released.

Liszt and the senior investigators of the Survey Corps stood guard outside Starry Sky City. After eliminating interference and clutter, they confirmed that there was no movement inside the Holy Fire Sacrifice.

The entire sacred fire sacrificial site is like a coffin, in which the Queen of Guardian Stars has been sleeping for thousands of years.

However, if they want to enter, they must break the coffin.

Once the coffin is broken, the disturbance during the battle will be radiated from this gap, alarming the monsters in this direction.

Therefore, some people must stay outside to block the incoming monsters.

"When fighting against a powerful being at the level of the Queen of Stars, the number of people is meaningless. The strength of the soul is the key. If the threshold is not crossed, it will be useless no matter how many people are crammed in."

"Therefore, there are only seventeen people in the team that will fight against the Queen of Stars in the end. The remaining one hundred and fifty people will stay outside the Holy Fire Sacrifice to ensure that our battle is not disturbed."

Olivia's voice was very solemn.

"The disturbance of the battle will be very large, and no one is sure how many monsters will be disturbed in the end. In order to reduce the pressure, we must clean up all the monsters in this direction as much as possible."

"This is a real test, for us and for them."

Rhodes became inexplicably nervous and asked, "Am I in the decisive battle team?"

Olivia laughed and said: "Of course, without you, we are missing a winning trump card. Don't worry, go and rest. The last three days are the most important three days."

Rhodes nodded and found a seat that was neither far nor close to the fire and sat down. This was the most suitable distance for him.

When he sat down, he was surprised to find that Mavis was also sitting here, but she was holding her knees with her hands, her head resting on her knees, and her silver hair fell like a waterfall.

"What are you doing?" Rhodes asked, "Why don't you rest?"

Mavis gave him a cold look with her silver eyes: "I'm taking a rest."

Rhodes didn't pay attention and asked a few questions casually. Knowing that her curse was still under her control and that the state of silver hair and silver eyes would last for a long time, he closed his eyes and entered the dreamland.

In a dream.

The Book of Knowledge was impatient for a long time, and as soon as Rhodes entered the dreamland, it rushed forward.

"Master, hurry up and create the colorful dream."

"We are very close to the rebirth of the ancient god in flesh and blood!"

Rhodes impatiently took the book of knowledge away from his body.

"I understand, don't rush me."

He took out 150 copies of nightmare fuel from the obelisk and came to the factory of dreams.

Knocking lightly on the door, above, in the deep background, on a light blue crescent moon, a girl who seemed to be made of mist gently bowed to Rhodes and opened the door.

Inside the factory, black pipes are winding and squirming slowly. A huge furnace-shaped heart stands quietly in the middle of the factory. Countless large and small pipes are connected above and below it, like Cardiovascular.

Rhodes knew that as long as the corresponding proportion of nightmare fuel was added to the heart furnace, the wonderful dream creation "Colorful Dream" could be refined.

He walked over and added part of the nightmare fuel to the inlet under his heart. A puff of black smoke came out, and his heart began to fluctuate. The entire dream factory seemed to come alive. He seemed to be standing in the belly of a huge monster. middle.

Rhodes calmed down and continued to add nightmare fuel into the heart of the furnace.

The stove roared, black smoke came out, and the whole factory was squirming, as if chewing something.

The Book of Knowledge shouted excitedly: "Using the body of despair to process the dream of hope, this is the miracle of the dream factory!"

Rhodes waited quietly. After an unknown amount of time, the dream factory finally calmed down. The heart furnace spewed out the last puff of black smoke, and then opened the furnace door.

Two pieces of colorful light flowing like water lay quietly in the heart of the furnace. Rhodes fished them out gently and held them in his hands.

The Book of Knowledge jumped up excitedly: "Great, two copies of Colorful Dreams! This is such an unexpected surprise! As expected of my teaching... Ahem, I mean, worthy of being the master, of course. It’s all thanks to my little help.”

Rhodes glanced at it, snorted, and asked, "Book, how should I use it?"

The Book of Knowledge quickly replied: "Just put it into the obelisk. It is a bad thing that the stars have not been quantified yet. Colorful Dreams can change this."

Rhodes asked in a deep voice: "Book, logically speaking, I have become a guardian and my soul has become much stronger. Why is there no star completion and quantification?"

The Book of Knowledge turned the pages and replaced the sounds with words.

"I'm not sure, Master, but it's probably because some new changes have occurred in the Three Realms."

The Three Realms refer to the material world, the spiritual world and the Sea of ​​Origin. The answer from the Book of Knowledge made Rhodes unbelievable, but he had no time to delve into it for the time being, so he could only follow the Book of Knowledge out of the dream factory.

On the door, the dreamy girl gently closed the door for him and smiled sweetly at him.

Rhodes always felt that this girl and this dream factory seemed like living things.

He shook his head, put away his messy thoughts, came to the obelisk, and put a colorful dream into the obelisk.

The light, as light as cotton, quickly blended into the towering obelisk, but nothing changed.

Rhodes waited for a while, and just when he was about to ask, the dream suddenly darkened, and the night sky became extremely conspicuous. A huge meteor, dragging a long tail flame, streaked into the sky and became a hanging star in the southeast. A star with horns.

A line of golden text that seemed to be burning appeared in his consciousness.

【Bright Blue】

[Status: Origin]

[Position: Sea of ​​Origin]

[Star Energy: Spiritual Tide]

[Strength: 10000]

[Source: 2]

[Description: We still need to love each other with our lives, even if the world bullies each other with meanness,

Instead of complaining about being in the dark, walk forward with a lantern. 】

——

Damn it!

Grass... No, the quantification of [Frigid Blue] has been completed.

Rhodes looked at the star shining in the night sky, and suddenly felt the urge to burst into tears.

This was the first star that he truly ignited with his own power, and it was finally quantified at this time.

It's not easy.

It has finally completed its quantification and turned into a mature star.

Does this also mean that my youthful self has completely faded away from me?

Rhodes smiled slightly, and the Book of Knowledge beside him was so excited that it danced a dance unique to it on the ground.

The puppet sighed softly: "We have another star, the dream has become powerful again, and its power is recovering."

The Book of the Future trembled twice: "Is this our current master? I always feel that he is different from before."

Asa looked up at the stars, frowning, as if thinking about something.

Rhodes glanced at the obelisk. The source energy on it had changed to 25. This not only meant that the dream had more energy, but also meant that he could gain 5 points of divinity every week.

However, to be fair, this improvement is not too big.

The only change in the stars after they have been quantified is the increase in source energy. Everything else has undergone transformation since they began to be quantified.

Only 2 points of source energy are not very useful.

Rhodes set his sights on the Book of Knowledge.

"Books, are there any more?"

The Book of Knowledge shouted excitedly: "Of course!"

Before he finished speaking, the dream turned dark again.

In the sky, a huge meteor that was much larger than before appeared. It quickly shrank, dragging its long white tail, and fell towards the dreamland.

After flying around the dreamland three times, the meteor became normal size, fell into the dreamland, and became the seventh star in the night sky.

Another line of burning gold characters appeared in his mind.

【Star Shuttle】

[Status: Origin]

[Position: Sea of ​​Origin]

[Star Energy: Star Glory]

[Strength: 800000]

——

【Star Shuttle】!

[Star Shuttle] has also been quantified!

6 servings of source energy!

As expected of a powerful star!

Rhodes finally smiled and looked at the sky again, expecting something.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, another huge meteor fell. The long tail flame almost crossed half of the sky. It also flew around the dreamland three times before falling into the night sky, becoming the eighth meteor to complete the quantification process. stars.

The burning golden words appeared in my mind as promised.

【Phantom of Wind】

[Status: Origin]

[Position: Sea of ​​Origin]

[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. 】

——

Hahahahaha!

Rhodes finally looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.

The three stars were all completed and quantified.

The source energy increased by 14 in one breath.

The total source energy jumped from 23 to 37!

The amount of divinity that can be obtained every week has increased to 7 points!

7 points of divinity every week, this is simply an unprecedented huge harvest!

The power of the dream has been greatly improved. Rhodes can clearly feel the changes in the entire dream, as if a powerful energy has been injected into it.

The book of knowledge jumped onto Rhodes' shoulders, and every page flapped.

"Master, we have 37 sources of energy. The maximum amount of source energy that can be used reaches 32, which can support 8 light cannons of the Tower of the Sun."

"Our firepower has doubled compared to before. We will definitely be able to easily kill the ancient god reborn in flesh and blood! Get its power!"

After the last mastermind battle, Rhodes already had a certain amount of confidence and said with a smile: "Shu, how long will it take for us to reach our destination? I can't wait any longer."

The Book of Knowledge replied: "Don't worry, my master, we are already at the edge of the Kingdom of Light. It will only take one to two hours at most."

"very good."

Rhodes turned around and came to the obelisk. The huge obelisk exuded inexplicable power.

Today's dreams are no longer what they used to be. Eight stars have been quantified and become the energy of dreams.

It is said that they also have a hidden way upward. Asa once said it when the dream protection was not strong, but it was denied by the Book of Knowledge.

It wasn't until the dreamland had a strong defense that the Book of Knowledge vaguely mentioned the matter again, but it didn't explain how to do it.

Rhodes is not in a hurry. He feels that Xingxing has reached its limit and there is not much room for improvement. It is probably just to check for leaks and fill in the gaps.

Ignite more stars is the way to go!

Now, only the three stars [Tears of Blood], [Power of the Titan] and [Blank] have not begun to be quantified.

The source materials they require are "Burning Heart", "Colossus Core" and "Empty Source" respectively.

The Book of Knowledge once told him that the dreamland has a building where the source material can be found. As long as this fragment can be found, it will only be a matter of time before these stars are quantified.

Rhodes looked up at the obelisk. The numbers on it had become new:

Soul Strength: 3302000

Soul Star: 11

Human nature: 20.12 million

Divinity: 22

Soulless souls: 510 million

Inside the monument: none

Soul Altar: 2 extremely great souls, 117 great souls, 59 very powerful souls

Spirituality: 12521

Source Energy: 37

Storage: 100,000 soul residues, 14 flowers of humanity, 7 soul firewood, omitted.

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

——

Rhodes was very satisfied to see the number next to the source energy, which represented the direct power of the dream.

Just like now, the Book of Knowledge controls the Light Platform and injects all source energy into the power part of the dream bubble.

The speed of the cavitation bubble has far exceeded its previous speed, without Rhodes having to sacrifice his spirituality.

Soon, Rhodes felt that the dream flew out of the Kingdom of Light and arrived at the junction of the high-level realm.

It was a wonderful feeling, derived from the unnatural changes in space.

Rhodes came to the Tower of Light and used its vision to look around.

Sure enough, the unique dimness of the Kingdom of Light had disappeared, and the world was shrouded in a vast gray fog, making it impossible to see anything clearly.

"Where are we going?" Rhodes asked.

"Sea of ​​Chaos."
