The Last Dark King

Latest website: He felt a strange feeling coming from his spirit, as if something had awakened.

After taking a closer look, sure enough, in the dream, the book of knowledge that had been sleeping for a long time suddenly opened its pages.

The white paper turned over with a clatter, and a strange white mist emitted as the paper turned over, surrounding it.

How could this guy still have visions while sleeping?

Rhodes was about to say hello, when suddenly, a large piece of wild text appeared on the white paper.

"Hahahahaha, I finally woke up, my soul has recovered more than half, and my spirituality is finally enough. Foolish master, tremble, kneel down in front of me, you will see the supreme wisdom, Wow...uh!"

A scraping sound.

Rhodes, who came to the dreamland at some point, inserted a finger into the gap between its pages.

The words he was writing frantically seemed to have been slapped flat by something, ink splattered everywhere, and then disappeared.

Rhodes sneered: "Book, what are you talking about? I'll give you a chance to reorganize the language."

The book of knowledge trembled, and the words on the page suddenly became much smaller.

"Great Master, the Book of Knowledge that just woke up from a long sleep welcomes you. My soul has been greatly restored, my knowledge and abilities have been greatly increased, and your humble servant can finally It’s my pleasure to serve you better.”

Rhodes snorted and pulled out his fingers.

"Wouldn't it be better if it was like this? If you insist on being penetrated, didn't the previous dream master teach you what politeness is?"

The book of knowledge trembled, its clumped pages looked very unconvincing, and a small line of text appeared in the gap between the pages.

"The previous master was noble, elegant, stable, powerful, and had the grace of a human hero. How could he be like you..."

This line of words flashed by and disappeared instantly.

But with Rhodes' current strength, he still saw clearly, but he didn't care.

Just now it was just to suppress this guy's arrogance, lest it become confused about the situation and regard itself as its master.

"Okay, what changes have you made now? Can you tell me the secret of the dream? When are we going to hunt the monsters in the spirit world and help the god of flesh and blood rebirth, Herragtos, be completely freed?"

The book of knowledge turned over the pages, and the handwriting finally became normal.

"Of course I have changed a lot. A lot of forgotten knowledge has been remembered. The cost and backlash of searching for new knowledge has also been reduced. I have become a new person."

tomato

There is a kind of insipid pride in the handwriting. The biggest characteristic of this guy is that he can quickly forget the unpleasant memory of being slapped in the face, but as long as it is not excessive, Rhodes usually doesn't bother to care about it.

"The secret of the dream has nothing to do with my memory. If I reveal a word rashly, it may trigger a reaction from the source, leading to a great terror."

Rhodes frowned and said, "Then I will never know?"

The words of the Book of Knowledge became calm and careful.

"No, when the barrier of dreams is strong enough, we can discuss all the secrets at will without worrying about causing unknowns."

Rhodes understood the meaning of the Book of Knowledge. It had warned him before that he should not discuss the ancient gods outside at will, especially the honorable names of the ancient gods.

It seems that these unspeakable secrets cannot be expressed in any form, otherwise it will cause bad consequences.

Part of the secrecy can only be discussed to a limited extent under certain circumstances.

For example, the White Tower is located in both the material world and the spiritual world.

For example, an extremely special dream.

Rhodes can freely discuss the ancient gods in these places, but the outside world is very dangerous.

Similarly, Rhodes can communicate a limited part of the knowledge about dreams in dreams, but to the outside world, he cannot reveal the existence of any dreams.

The world was far stranger than he imagined.

The statement that the Bishop of the Church of Heroes used to test his "evil will" may not be just a doctrine.

Rhodes' face became a little more solemn and he asked, "Can we start hunting now?"

The book of knowledge shook its pages.

"Wait, I still have a few things to do now, and you also need to...well, you seem to have become a lot stronger."

Rhodes flashed his spiritual energy, and the stronger spiritual energy fluctuations spread like ripples, far exceeding his previous spiritual energy.

"certainly!"

"good."

The writing in the Book of Knowledge also became brisk.

"It's very close to the ninth level of spiritual power. It turns out that my master is not such a waste. It seems that you still made a lot of efforts while I was sleeping."

The corner of Rhodes' mouth twitched, and since it didn't mean it, he generously forgave it for its indiscriminate words.

The book of knowledge opened its pages and stood up.

"Let me see what you have gained during this time."

It ran out of the hut.

"Hmm...nothing seems to have changed. No new fragments have been found. The soul altar...ah!"

The book froze as if it had been struck by thunder, and it took a while before I could write new words.

"The soul fragment of the Ancient God of the Sun? The soul fragment of the Ancient God of Destiny? How is this possible?"

"There are so many powerful souls. How many monsters have you killed...Oh my god, there are almost 30 million souls."

The book of knowledge could not write words for a while, and the wide pages were like its surprised mouth.

Rhodes coughed and couldn't help laughing: "It's not bad, I just made a small effort."

The book tremblingly wrote: "You...how did you do it?"

Rhodes briefly recounted his experience during this period.

The book was silent for a few seconds and wrote: "Palace of Fire? Is this a strong group organization formed by human beings now?"

"Uh, yes."

"What is your current position? Are you one of the leaders?"

"...reserve member."

The pages of the Book of Knowledge were wrinkled, and he looked unhappy, but after a few seconds of silence, he still wrote.

"That's right. You haven't even reached the ninth level of psychic power, so you can't be a leader. If the existing human race only had this level, it would have perished long ago."

Although Rhodes was not happy, he admitted that what the Book of Knowledge said was right.

"Did you have such a strong organization at that time?"

"Yes, the Hunting Agents, the Punisher Group, the Fire Guardians, and the White Angels are all similar organizations."

Rhodes asked curiously: "Are they strong?"

The Book of Knowledge writes: "I cannot disclose too much. Their formation is closely related to dreams."

Rhodes was a little disappointed, feeling that there were too many unknown things at the moment.

The Book of Knowledge continued: "You have reached the state of coordination between soul and body. When your spiritual power reaches level nine, you will be able to complete your first transformation. At that time, your strength will take a leap and you will officially enter the... At the upper level of combat effectiveness, many things can begin.”

Rhodes nodded.

"[Star Shuttle] currently only needs one great soul, and I still have two sources, so I can consider igniting new stars."

The Book of Knowledge waved the paper in agreement.

"Very good, really good. During my dormancy, your performance exceeded my imagination. I once heard a saying that some people may seem stupid, dull, sluggish, childish, incompetent, waste, and rubbish in the early stages. , as useless as shit, but in the later stage, it can gradually bloom with brilliance. Maybe you are like this..."

Rhodes raised his middle finger, and the Book of Knowledge immediately changed the topic.

"Well, with your current level, you can finally consider the stars in the far reaches, let me think about it."

White mist flashed on the Book of Knowledge. This was a vision it had after waking up.

"Well...that's right! This star is the most suitable for you."

Under the guidance of the book, Rhodes entered the soul wilderness and flew far away before landing.

On the endless lightless wasteland, a strange cloud of gray appeared before our eyes.

It was as big as a house, and the black and rotten firewood stood in a circular shape in front of him, like a wooden house that had been burned into a frame in a fire.

A line of white text floats above.

【Phantom of Wind】

[Requires: 7 sources, 700 million soulless souls, 7 great souls, 7 soul firewood]

What the hell?

Rhodes almost thought he was going blind.

700 million soulless souls?

Forget it, what does it mean to have 7 pieces of soul firewood?

Rhodes immediately looked at the book of knowledge that came in with him.

The Book of Knowledge answered his doubts with a calm line of text.

"These are the stars in the far distance. They are too powerful, and for some reason, we cannot improve them one position at a time. You can only completely ignite them once and directly reach the state of eternal fire."

"That's all it takes."

Rhodes was relieved.

This is the right thing to do. Otherwise, just igniting it will require 7 soul firewood, and another round will be required to increase the status. My divinity is not enough.

but.

Rhodes looked at the huge number and still felt tremendous pressure.

700 million soulless souls is no joke.

There are also 7 sources, 7 great souls, all of which are very difficult to obtain.

I just don’t know why these stars are all 7.

While thinking, Rhodes left the Soul Wasteland. With a bang, the Book of Knowledge jumped down and rushed towards the hut.

"What's wrong?"

Rhodes looked a little strange as he hurriedly read the book of knowledge.

"Stop arguing, I'm going to repair the Light Tower."

"Repair the Light Tower?"

"Yes, this is the memory I just acquired. The current Light Platform is damaged. Only after it is repaired can we start hunting monsters in the spirit world and try to eliminate the remaining remains of the ancient god Heragetos who was reborn in flesh and blood. , the reborn ancient god may have left us some kind of legacy."

Rhodes was overjoyed and asked hurriedly: "What is needed to repair it?"

"Soulless souls, powerful and very powerful souls, and other things I will tell you later."

After saying that, the book started to get busy in front of the light platform.

White mist surrounded it, and black and white soulless souls and gray souls flew in from time to time and disappeared into the platform of light.

After being dormant, the Book of Knowledge did complete a transformation of sorts.

Rhodes felt happy and worried at the same time.

Fortunately, everything can move forward again.

Worried, he found that his current accumulation was far from being rich.

Before leaving, he tried to ask about the solution to the current situation of the Book of Knowledge.

The book of knowledge turned the pages back and forth, looking a little hesitant.

"I'm not sure. The current information is not enough for me to judge such a subjective issue, but the sudden collapse of the underground world and the rampage of the demonized ants are a bit strange. You can start investigating from this direction."

"In addition, even in our time, the demonized ant queen was one of the sources of disaster and must be eradicated as soon as possible."

Rhodes felt a chill in his heart, knowing that the matter was more serious than he imagined.

But he has been in the dream for a long time. Even though he can now observe from the dream and outside the dream, it is not good to have no reaction for too long.

"Then I'm going back."

The Book of Knowledge did not reply. It was already immersed in the restoration of the Light Tower.

Rhodes had a thought and instantly returned to Annabeth's back. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Annabeth's doubtful gaze.

"What's wrong?" Rhodes asked a little guilty: "I just closed my eyes to sense the surrounding environment."

Annabeth turned her head and muttered: "Why do I feel like your soul has just returned to its original place?"

Rhodes was shocked. Did this girl feel it?

However, she didn't look so sure.

Maybe she just noticed the subtle traces of him entering and leaving the dream world, or maybe she just felt the delusion that he was unconscious just now.

Rhodes didn't pay special attention. He looked around and saw that there were still only small groups of demonized ants nearby. He did not see large ant colonies or powerful demonized king ants.

"Did you find anything?"

Rhodes asked.

Everyone shook their heads.

Lannister said solemnly: "I have an illusion that the central ant colony seems to be avoiding us and avoiding all enemies."

Celie was surprised: "Why? Is the monster still afraid?"

"No, monsters have no emotions, but they have certain instincts. Something must be going on. We need to find the king ant as soon as possible."

But the subsequent journey was not smooth. Not only did they fail to find the king ant, they were also constantly attacked by the demonized king ant.

After becoming violent, the king ant not only spits acid, but also tries to attack Rhodes with its mouthparts.

Although with the help of Mephis, they killed the attacking king ant without wasting much effort, it didn't help.

The queen is continuing to hatch the king ants. If the king ants cannot be killed and traces of the queen are found, killing the king ants will not have much effect.

Just when everyone was helpless, the Book of Knowledge suddenly started making noise in their minds again.

"Okay! The Light Platform has restored another ability. Rhodes, you can try it. It allows you to find nearby monsters of the same type based on spiritual energy."

Rhodes was shocked: "What should I do?"

"Kill a demonized ant and use the Mist Disk of the Tower of Light on it."

Rhodes still did as he was told.

Sure enough, a misty light lit up in front of his eyes.

This was the shadow of the demonized ant. Rhodes looked around and saw it very far away.

Not only did the distance exceed the limit of the soul's eye, but he could also see the ground that the soul's eye could not see.

He looked down and found a huge fog shadow.

It is larger than the king ant, has longer front claws, and a thicker body. It lurks underground like a ghost.

"good!"

Rhodes was overjoyed, raised his psychic powers, and hit the ground with a heavy blow.

boom!
