The Last Dark King

Latest website: The dry palms of the Priest of the Main Star strangled Rhodes' neck, and the deep spiritual energy made it impossible for him to breathe.

He tried to struggle, but the Prime Priest's hands were as unshakable as fine steel.

Rhodes knew something was going to be bad, his Resurrection Stone had been used up, and he had not had time to prepare a new one, so he had to use another trump card.

In the flash of lightning in his mind, the "immortal spirit" instantly appeared in his palm.

But before he could use it, the Priest of the Main Star suddenly let go of him.

"Captain Eric, you are finally here."

A distorted and muddy voice came from his mouth.

"Let us fight side by side. The defense line of the Star has been broken. The stars are dim. The strangeness hidden in the black mist is eroding our kingdom. My eyes are blind and I have no companions around me. I hope you can turn into starlight and guide me. My sword."

This change was so sudden that Rhodes didn't come back to his senses for a while.

The staff of the Priest of the Main Star had been raised, and the super gravity collapsed the space, and the light was distorted and surrounded them.

Infinite spiritual energy gathers at the tip of the staff, and the terrifying power directed in any direction will only bring destruction.

Rhodes thought of lightning in his mind and regained his sanity as quickly as possible.

I don’t know why, but the Priest of the Main Star regarded him as “Captain Eric”.

He may be the leader of the Fighting Star Knights, who died in the Death Scar Canyon due to his fight against an unspeakable terrifying existence.

The Knights of the Fighting Star were also destroyed there.

Rhodes found the body of the leader, killed the ghosts of the past wandering in the canyon, eliminated the twisted dark phenomenon caused by the erosion of the semi-artifact, and thus obtained an unknown small ball and a ghost of the past. blessing of.

Perhaps it was this blessing that gave him the aura of the leader of the Knights of the Fighting Star, causing the chaotic Priest of the Star to think that he was his former companion.

The complicated thoughts passed by in an instant, and Rhodes reacted immediately.

"there!"

Rhodes deliberately switched to Star Language and imitated the tone and tone of the leader of the Fighting Star Knights.

When killing his ghost, Rhodes had heard his voice and seen the memories of the past.

And he is also very good at imitating, and this voice is at least nine times like it.

The blurred face of the Priest of the Main Star instantly turned towards the direction Rhodes pointed, and the dark purple staff made of pure star marrow pressed down.

"Great Desolate Starfall!"

The terrifying psychic roar resounded throughout the Starry Sky City.

In an instant, the meteorites all over the sky changed their direction and fell towards a large mass of darkness coming from the distance.

Is this okay?

Rhodes' eyes widened and his heart was beating wildly.

It actually succeeded?

He realized in a flash that this was a great opportunity.

The huge disturbance just now has dispersed in Starry Sky City. In mid-air, Rhodes clearly saw through the eyes of the soul that there was a tide of darkness coming from all directions.

Especially behind them, the black water has overflowed the area they walked through and is spreading towards the big lake.

And in the depths of the black water, there is an even deeper darkness spreading.

There is no doubt that it is the source of black mist, the original black mist.

It covered the remaining ashes of the monster and the still evaporating corpses. As a result, the killed monster stood up again in this black mist and corrupted into a black mist symbiote at an alarming speed.

In that black tide, there are countless such black mist symbionts.

Although the newly born black mist symbiote is not that powerful, it is better in numbers.

In other directions, due to the huge disturbance caused by the Inverted Silence Stone, many wandering monsters came in groups, and powerful black mist symbionts in other areas also came here.

The crisis was quietly approaching. If Rhodes hadn't been in mid-air, he wouldn't have been able to see it so far.

Their situation is actually far worse than imagined.

And now, it is an excellent opportunity.

Rhodes pointed back decisively, and the Priest of the Main Star also launched an attack decisively.

The bolide looks very far away, but in fact it falls on the ground in just a few seconds.

A meteorite struck the center of the black tide, and black water splashed hundreds of yards high, extinguishing and swallowing the bolide.

But the next moment, countless meteors fell, the entire starry sky city trembled, black water rose into the sky, the monster was smashed into pieces in the wailing, and the rising black dust almost covered half of the sky.

When the meteor shower ended, the black water had disappeared without a trace, and the black mist of the source retreated thousands of yards. There were monster limbs and fragments everywhere, and black dust was everywhere. The ground that had been solidified by spiritual energy also smashed countless Potholes.

This strange change shocked everyone.

No one can clearly know what happened above. Under the super strong gravity field, the shining light obscures everything.

Rovia, Jelaba, and Olivia exchanged looks.

The three of them tacitly did not activate their spiritual energy and remained silent.

Horus used the Stone of Silence to shroud everyone firmly in the Silence Field, eliminating as much disturbance as possible.

In the sky.

The Prime Priest spoke again.

"Captain Eric, the Kingdom of Stars is in danger. We are the last humans, carrying the hope of rekindling the fire of civilization. We must not fail... Godouin's strange existence behind the sacred mountain cannot extinguish the light of the stars. Tell me, In the direction of the enemy, even if I am the only one left, I will keep the black fog out of the Starry Sky City!"

Rhodes pointed forward again.

"This way."

He tried to use concise words as much as possible so as not to stimulate the chaotic consciousness of the Priest of the Prime Star.

Whether he regains consciousness or heads into another mess, it's a very bad thing.

Maintaining the status quo is best.

The Priest of the Main Star once again pointed the staff in the direction Rhodes said, and the purple staff erupted with infinite spiritual light. This spiritual energy was more powerful than Rhodes had ever seen before, and even the Great Demon God could not compare with it.

The only thing that made him feel slightly strange was that although the psychic energy was extremely powerful, judging from the psychic energy waveform, its absolute psychic energy intensity was still at level fifteen.

The distracting thoughts passed by in a flash. This time, Rhodes saw with his own eyes the process of the meteorite being created.

Countless meteors appeared from the spiritual world, responding to the call, and filled the sky in just a few seconds.

The fiery red light obscured the black fog, and a long trail streaked across the sky and fell into the Starry Sky City.

Another monster was reduced to ashes in the sky-high flames and huge vibrations.

Rhodes noticed that the huge disturbance caused by the falling star was quietly weakened, which seemed to be the handiwork of Horus.

Under two blows, most of the monsters had been turned into ashes. The monsters in the nearby area were basically cleared, and even the Avenue of Stars was quite empty.

The Priest of the Main Star asked: "Captain Eric, why can't I feel the breath of the Dark Demon? Where has it gone?"

Rhodes' heart sank. This question was not easy to answer.

He thought about lightning in his mind, quickly searched for all relevant information in his memory, and answered cautiously: "The battle at Gray Mountain was won."

"Very good."

"The Dark Demon was killed by the Fighting Star Knights. I knew that Captain Eric had mastered the secrets of the stars. Maybe after the battle, he could try to step into the realm of the king."

"Becoming a king-level combat power is the first step to saving the world."

The Prime Priest didn't seem to realize that Captain Eric was beside him. His consciousness was completely confused, immersed in past memories, and wandering.

This is a unique phenomenon related to the Kingdom of Stars. No monster has ever been able to retain human memories and even completely chaotic sanity.

"Eric's talent is very high. If he were not so addicted to talking to the noble lady, he would have been able to go further. If we can have another true king, this doomsday disaster may not bring such a big disaster. Loss."

"But no matter how powerful the black mist is, we will eventually stand up in the face of adversity and resurrect in despair. The Star City will never fall. I am Astraios, the Priest of the Main Star, and I will guard the royal city until death!" "

"Long live the stars!"

The spiritual energy vibrated violently, and Rhodes hurriedly pointed out the direction again in Star Language.

This time, an invisible gravity field fell from the sky, crushing all the monsters in the field into a ball. The corpses collapsed, bones were broken and flesh was opened, and black mist shot out from the large ball of flesh like blood.

In an instant, hundreds of monsters died.

Rowia and the others below were all shocked.

Rovia said in a very low voice: "The Priest of the Main Star was at least king-level in combat power during his lifetime, right?"

Olivia replied in an equally small voice: "That's right, it must be true. He has taken half a step forward from the Herrscher and entered the realm of the king."

"King, how does it compare with him?"

"Of course it's far from the king, but it's incredible that the Priests of the Main Star have reached this point just by relying on their own strength. The fact that a king-level king other than the Holy Fire can appear in the Kingdom of Stars shows that their power far exceeds that of Trorian. The gap between us is wider than imagined.”

Jelaba said in a deep voice: "Fortunately, we did not choose to go to war with him. The fallen person who is the king in front of us must also be king-level."

They tacitly agreed not to use psychic communication. The disturbance of psychic energy was very sensitive. On the contrary, the disturbance of sound was much smaller.

In front of a very powerful monster, communicating in ordinary ways is the best way.

"Why can Rhodes command that monster? Did Mavis use mental interference?"

"Impossible. Mental interference cannot affect king-level monsters. The powerful source of law will cut off all external interference on its own...otherwise, Mephis would not be treated like this."

Rovia was silent for a few seconds.

This is a fact. For Wangcheng, the core factor that really restricts their expansion is the king-level monster.

If Mavis can control a king-level monster, then her value far outweighs the risks posed by her guilt and the "Son of Destruction" prophecy.

"why?"

"Maybe there is some reason that we don't know. Maybe as some people in the royal city have guessed, Rhodes is the reborn soul of a powerful ancient god. The soul fragment must be very big. Except for Alan, I have never I’ve seen people like this before.”

"But the White Tower has denied this possibility. Rhodes' soul is a normal soul, without fragments of God."

Rovia pondered: "The White Tower may not be accurate. Meredith once predicted that I would form a fire oath with Olivia and have a big fat boy. Wouldn't this be a failure?"

Olivia sneered and said: "Stop dreaming, barbarian, even if I was born with Rhodes, I would not be born with you."

Rovia moved her gaze towards Jelaba and signaled with her eyes: "Look!"

Jelaba ignored him and said: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us. I have seen a saying from ancient books that when human beings rise, all kinds of unusual things, all kinds of incredible victories, and various kinds of things usually happen. It’s an unexplainable coincidence, as if there is a supreme power helping us.”

He paused.

"I think we're in this period."

"The emergence of the king, the rise of Alan, the shining of many new stars, the occurrence of miracles, etc., all illustrate this point."

"This mission may go surprisingly smoothly."

Rovia and Olivia's eyes gradually glowed.

"That's right."

Rovia said with certainty.

"I feel like this is it. Maybe, our generation will start the rise of mankind."

Olivia also smiled.

"Yes, capturing the Holy Fire Seed may not be as difficult as we thought, just like it is now."

Jelaba did not answer. He looked up at the sky, looking at the large group of rotating white light, and prayed silently in his heart.

Yes, I hope everything goes as smoothly as imagined.

——

Sky.

After the Main Star Priest once again wiped out all the monsters in one direction, Rhodes was already thinking about how to use him to defeat the Queen of Stars.

Of course, this is a bit difficult and there are too many variables, but at least we can break the barrier of the Holy Fire Sacrifice, right?

Rhodes watched uneasily as the Prime Priest retracted his staff. In the dazzling white light, his face was a little blurry, but his mummified face, two shriveled eye holes, and incomplete teeth could still be seen.

His soul was chaotic and powerful, and his excessive spiritual power prevented Rhodes from observing the interior of his soul more deeply.

Suddenly, his soul experienced violent fluctuations again.

Rhodes knew that he was going to speak again.

But this time, there was no roar, just an eerie mumbling.

"Dead, all dead... The black mist is too powerful. The strange existence is invincible. Starry Sky City, Starry Sky City cannot be defended."

Although there was no expression, the deep sadness and despair in his voice was extremely clear.

At this moment, Rhodes did not feel that he was a powerful Priest of the Main Star, but an ordinary old man.

"Pollution...the black mist of the source has crossed the barrier of Starry Sky City..."

"We, we are finished, the stars will be extinguished, and the Star City will become another terrifying black tomb... No, no, we still have hope. Alphonse escaped. He took our last strength and millions of If the people successfully escape, they will develop and grow, just like the Starry Kingdom, the fire will rekindle and illuminate this world, are you right? "

Rhodes' heart sank. He knew clearly that Alphonse was obviously referring to the big star priest below the Hill of Death.

The reason why the Ridge of Death is called the Ridge of Death is because the strong aura of death gathers there.

It was there that the last fleeing team from the Kingdom of Stars was completely wiped out.

The big star priest talking to himself is just like the main star priest in front of him.

They have no hope.

The fire of the stars has all been extinguished.

"Yes." Rhodes replied in a very small voice.

"That's true."

The Priest of the Prime Star waved his staff and danced a crazy dance.

"Where did they escape to? They must have crossed the Dead Ember Mountains, right? I heard that further south, there will be an excellent terrain and an ancient royal city that existed in the era of giants. They must have taken root there and grown again, right?"

Logically speaking, Rhodes should obey his words and follow his imagination.

But for some reason, Rhodes suddenly had a strange intuition, a strange emotion, which caused the words he spat out to change.

"No, they didn't cross the Dead Ember Mountains."

The Priest of the Main Star stopped dancing and stared blankly into the distance. The spiritual energy in his empty eyes flashed rapidly, as if he had encountered some kind of unsolvable problem.

below.

Rovia exclaimed: "What happened? What a strong movement!"

Olivia did not bother to lower her voice and shouted: "The soul of the Priest of the Main Star is rioting! Prepare to fight! Prepare to fight!"

Jelaba looked up at the sky, feeling the power emitting from the heavy soul in the violent fluctuations, and murmured: "Rhode, what are you doing?"

"you……"

The voice of the Priest of the Main Star became low and hollow, carrying an indescribable terrifying noise, which seemed distorted and strange.

"……say what?"

Rhodes said firmly and clearly: "Alphonse failed to escape from this area. The unknown terrifying existence caught up with them. This last escape team was on the Ridge of Death hundreds of thousands of yards away from Starry Sky City. The army was annihilated, all the priests of the Big Star were killed in battle, and millions of people were buried on the earth. Due to too many deaths, a large number of undead monsters were born there."

The air was vibrating, and the rapidly flashing psychic energy and unstable soul even affected the spiritual world.

"What did you say?"

The Prime Priest repeated his previous words.

Rhodes said word by word: "The Kingdom of Stars is destroyed."

boom!

An earthquake seemed to have occurred in the void. The space was bending visibly to the naked eye under the huge pressure. The super strong gravity field enveloped Rhodes' soul like a ball.

"What did you say?"

The eyes of the Priest of the Main Star erupted with an astonishing red light, and the terrifying psychic energy hit his face like a mountain.

"No, this is a phantom. The phantom is affecting my spirit. This is an illusion! This is a lie! You are not Eric. Eric is on his way to victory..."

Rhodes decisively squeezed the immortal spirit and obtained the effect of immortality for thirty seconds.

Bang!

There was a muffled sound, and the super gravity broke through Rhodes' psychic defense.

Rhodes's bones broke and blood spurted out. His body was kneaded into a ball like a clay figure, his internal organs were squeezed out, and his bones were crushed.

But the next second, Rhodes returned to his original state.

The immortal spirit refreshes every second, reincarnating Rhodes from the dead.

But the terrifying gravity killed him instantly. His internal organs, bones and flesh were squeezed into a ball and drowned by the overflowing blood. Gravity quickly precipitated the impurities in the blood, making it extremely clear.

Liquids are more difficult to compress than solids, but the gravity of the Priest of the Main Star is too strong. The blood gradually shrinks inward due to the overweight, and becomes solid again, like a crystal ruby, sealing the twisted mass of flesh and bones.

But the next second, like an illusion, Rhodes was reborn again.

he shouted the moment gravity recaptured him and killed him.

"The Fighting Star Knights were completely wiped out!"

"The black mist demon cracked the ground with one strike!"

"Eric died of serious injuries, and no one in the Fighting Star Knights survived!"

It took Rhodes twenty-five seconds to complete these three sentences.

In the last five seconds.

Rhodes shouted with all his strength: "Star City has fallen long ago, and the Kingdom of Stars has been destroyed!"

boom!

A long whine, like a ship's whistle.

The gravity field then disperses.

The space returned to calm.

All the power in the main star priest's body was dissipating, and his body turned into a little bit of fly ash, flying in the air.

"The Kingdom of Stars is dead?"

Rhodes replied word for word: "The Kingdom of Stars has been destroyed for fifteen hundred years."

The terrifying power of the Priest of the Main Star has completely disappeared, replaced by a desperate calmness. His soul is no longer crazy and chaotic, but it is continuing to dissipate.

"Fifteen hundred years ago..."

The Prime Priest murmured, his voice no longer distorted, no weird noises, just like an ordinary normal person.

He looked around, and his empty eyes seemed to see the current scene of Star City.

It was so dilapidated, depressed, and silent, with damaged buildings everywhere and monsters wandering aimlessly in the ruins.

A large piece of dead flesh fell off his face and flew into the air until it turned into powder.

He wanted to cover his face, but when he saw his withered hands, he felt at a loss.

There were no tears in his eyes, just black decay, floating in the wind.

"Fifteen hundred years have passed...the stars have finally perished, and everything we protect has turned into dust."

"Our hopes are not worth mentioning in the face of the real black fog and strange existence."

The Prime Priest wanted to turn his head, but his neck bones had shattered and scattered, and his body had fallen apart.

"You, who are you?"

Rhodes quickly replied: "We are from Trorian, and our purpose is to obtain the Holy Fire Seed of Starry Sky City."

Although the face of the Prime Priest was cracked, Rhodes could feel the complex changes in his emotions.

"Yes, really? We perished, but humanity continues!"

"The fire hasn't gone out, we haven't lost yet!"

The Prime Priest's tone suddenly became urgent.

"For latecomers, I don't have much time. The power of the Source Star is almost exhausted. Her Majesty the Queen has used up the last source of the Star... There is no king among you... You may face an unprecedented test..."

Rhodes asked anxiously: "Can you help us?"

"No, no, I am not allowed to exist in the world. The moment I regain my mind, I am destined to disappear... I will use my last strength to give you the blessings of the stars. I hope you will pass on the flame forever and reappear as a human being. of brilliance.”

The Priest of the Main Star raised his staff, and in an instant, endless starlight fell from the sky and attached itself to everyone.

Rhodes was even wrapped in starlight.

"For those who are late, please remember that there once was a human kingdom here called Stars. The kingdom was full of passionate warriors who fought for humanity."

As soon as the words fell, the Priest of the Main Star turned into ashes and completely dissipated in the air.

With a clang, his staff fell to the ground.

The robe fell from the air, as if it had lost its owner. It broke into countless pieces and fell one after another.

Like flowers sprinkled in front of tombstones.
