The Last Dark King

Chapter 40 Sewer

Rhodes' Soul Eye played a huge role, allowing him to see through the black fog and see subtle changes in the distance, and he could always detect the birth of dust at the first time.

This skill has not exerted its full capabilities until now. It must be used under the conditions of spiritual vision. It not only allows Rhodes to see through the fog, but also to see spiritual veins, energy ripples, and spatial disturbances.

Darkness is no longer an obstacle to vision; the black mist has become a black background, part of a larger existence.

And through this black background, he could see something deeper flowing, gathering, and being born, forming shadows falling like dust.

That's the monster.

The entire patrolled block was within his visual range. He could even see beyond the block and see other patrolling members and the watchmen who were helping them.

Thanks to Rhodes' abilities, this became the only patrol area that did not seek help from the watchers.

——They can always arrive as soon as possible and kill these dust-like monsters before they are born.

This time is no exception.

"Walk!"

Although Raistlin was tired, he was not tired.

For a combatant, the mission is a military order, and no discount can be tolerated.

While on patrol, he could gossip and tell jokes, but when monsters appeared, he had to fight.

The three of them ran towards the place pointed by Rhodes. Since Rhodes had no professional training, his speed was much slower than them. Caramon and him stayed behind, and the two people with cleaning abilities took the lead.

When they arrived, the monsters had been cleared away.

But the hole in the fog layer above still existed, and the black mist fell like a waterfall. The square was filled with black mist, and the spiritual lamps around their waists could only illuminate the space around them.

"There's something rotten here that's attracting it."

Raistlin said seriously.

"If it's not dealt with, it could lead to a big disaster."

Egger asked: "Rhode, can you find the source?"

Rhodes hesitated for a moment. He could see a lot of things, but most of them he couldn't understand what they were or what they represented.

"What is rot?"

"A highly corrupted substance infected by the black mist. It is usually some spiritual substance. Due to its extremely high contaminability, it will attract the black mist or any existence with dark power to gather towards it."

"Substances rich in spirituality...do they have any characteristics?"

"It has very good spiritual energy conductivity and can resonate with spiritual energy to achieve increase or change. In addition, when spirituality deteriorates, it will produce a strong distortion phenomenon. After it is completely corrupted, it will turn into black rot and become infected. hotbed.”

Rhodes looked around and found that there was no phenomenon as he mentioned, but he found that there were black airflow-like veins going underground.

Although his spiritual vision is superb, physical matter still has a certain blocking effect, which will weaken the disturbances or visions he sees.

Especially the earth, which almost completely blocked his spiritual vision.

"It should be underground." Rhodes said, "I saw the black mist flowing underground."

Raistlin understood immediately: "In the sewers, the rot is in the sewers."

Rhodes felt a little uneasy. He heard what they said yesterday that there seemed to be many unknown threats in the sewers of the Royal City. He had no fighting ability at all. Don't overturn as soon as he got in. It was better to kill some kid on the ground steadily.

"Let's call for backup."

Unexpectedly, the three Raistlins immediately agreed: "Call the watchman. Although it is a surface sewer, there is still some danger."

Rhodes felt relieved and took out the flare.

It is somewhat like a ball of dung mixed with grass, with many small pieces on the surface that can be moved.

After Rhodes manipulated the small piece as Raistlin said, he pulled open the iron ring at the tail.

The flare shone with bright orange-red light and shot up into the sky with a whoosh, dragging a long trail into the black fog.

With an explosion, it bloomed with a red light that could not be blocked by the black mist.

After waiting for a moment, a group of yellow light rose in the northeast direction, blooming into a changing yellow pattern in the black fog.

Raistlin looked at it for a moment and said, "The watchman asked us to go forward. He has notified the Defense Department and will be here shortly."

Rhodes was a little nervous. He didn't have any fighting ability. The last time he was killed by an invading monster in a dream was still vivid in his mind. Once he was attacked by a monster in a cramped environment like a sewer, he would definitely be stunned on the spot.

Raistlin saw his inner uneasiness and smiled and patted his shoulder.

"Don't worry, we are all veterans. The surface of the sewer is generally not very dangerous, and we have not only done its cleaning work once."

Egger smiled and said: "The biggest danger is the small hole in the wall. As long as you don't put your face up to look at it like Caramon, a fool."

They both laughed.

Only Caramon blushed and argued forcefully: "I clearly saw a big tentacle going in! What's wrong with taking a look?"

"Yes, yes, no one dares to come within ten meters of you for a week after that."

While teasing Caramon, Raistlin carefully inspected the lanterns worn by the four of them, took out a box of reddish-brown powder from his arms and added it to the lamp. The light in the lamp became brighter visibly to the naked eye.

"The secondary phlogiston produced by Minghe Workshop is of very good quality and has the effect of preventing corrosion, pollution, and theft, and enhancing the body's natural immunity."

Caramon curled his lips and said: "Don't believe these bragging words."

Raistlin smiled and gave each person a glowing red stone: "The Red Tear Stone, worn on the body, can limit the erosion of the black fog, just in case."

Rhodes took the stone and placed it on his chest like the others. When he looked up, he saw that everyone was glowing slightly red.

Raistlin checked his equipment and weapons one last time, then took out a medicine bottle and took a swig. His energy immediately improved. The other two also followed suit, and Rhodes saw that their spiritual powers were brightening. Quite a few.

"lets go."

He waved his hand, walked to the place pointed by Rhodes, lifted the manhole cover, and jumped down.

Egg and Caramon then jumped down, and Rhodes could only follow.

Although he felt a little uneasy, Rhodes knew that the Eye of the Soul could detect danger in advance, and there should be no huge danger on the surface of the sewer, otherwise the residents above would be the first to suffer.

And the information has been passed on, and the guards will soon come to support.

It should be fine, and maybe we can take this opportunity to get some stronger souls.

Feeling certain in his heart, Rhodes also jumped into the entrance of this dark hole.

Click, click, click.

The four people landed on the ground one after another, and the light from their bodies illuminated the dark space.

Unexpectedly, this place was far from being filled with filth and filth as Rhodes thought. Instead, it was quite dry and dusty, and the air was filled with a stale smell, as if no one had been here for a long time.

The space is not as spacious as imagined. It is only about one person high and two people wide. The surrounding walls are full of man-made traces. There are many forks in the dark hole in the distance.

"This is a section of sewer built later, and it looks like it has been abandoned for a long time."

Raistlin said thoughtfully.

"Rhode, can you see the direction of the black mist?"

In their eyes, black mist and darkness almost merge into one, spreading everywhere. When they get closer, they will be dispersed by the spiritual lamp, making it impossible to see the direction.

Rhodes looked around and pointed to the northwest.

Raistlin nodded: "Very good, we are now starting in the four-person team combat mode. I am the front leader, Egg, you are in the middle position, Rhodes, you are in the back position, but before Caramon. Caramon, you are Support from the back position, also serve as defense, protect Rhodes, is there any problem?"

Egg and Caramon replied in unison: "No."

Rhodes was a little nervous: "I don't quite understand. This is my first time..."

Egg smiled and patted him on the shoulder, but couldn't reach it, so he had to pat him on the back.

"It doesn't matter. With me as the central controller, you will be fine."

Caramon sneered: "Come on, the ghosts got stuck in my face last time, and you were still blowing bubbles there."

Egger said angrily: "My spiritual vision is low, I just didn't see it for a while."

Caramon curled his lips and said, "Stone Wood Core."

"You sound like you have very high spiritual vision, aren't you Shi Mu Xinzi?"

"Okay!" Raistlin stopped their quarrel: "There is no one with good psychic vision in our team. Rhodes has just made up for our shortcomings. We are now a perfect team. Last time in Ghost Lake There will be no more failures, let’s go.”

These words made both of them happy, and the four of them immediately set off in the direction pointed by Rhodes.

Raistlin took the lead, walking at the front, Egger in the middle, and Caramon at the end.

Every twenty steps or so, Caramon would drop a glowing stone as a mark.

This will not only prevent you from getting lost, but will also lead to the direction of support from behind.

Rhodes opened his spiritual vision and soul eyes, carefully observed the surroundings, and guided the team in the direction of progress.

There was nothing in the sewer, and it was eerily quiet. His spiritual vision could not penetrate these thick walls, let alone the ground or underground.

This made Rhodes feel uneasy again, but when he looked back and saw the sparkling stones on the ground, all the way to the entrance of the sewer, he felt calm again.

After walking through two forks, the space suddenly opened up a lot.

The top of the head was at least as high as a two-story building, and was wide enough to accommodate five carriages traveling side by side. The air became humid, and an unspeakable stench hit his face.

The direction of the sewer was cut horizontally, and there were many round holes on both sides that were the same size as the passage they were in.

Rhodes immediately understood that they had reached the main road.

Turning around, he immediately noticed a huge black shadow not far away. It was about three meters tall. It had a huge body and tiny limbs. Darkness seemed to melt in its body, and its spiritual veins were almost invisible. It had psychic powers. The movement of the body is like sticky asphalt, covering the whole body, and the ripples of the soul are gentle and slightly undulating.

Rhodes instantly remembered what Old Blind Moore said, those with black souls can only be monsters.

And isn't its soul waveform what the regular class calls an unformed monster?

He immediately shouted: "Left! Left! Unlevel monster!"

Raistlin's shadow flashed, and his spiritual energy became active instantly. He immediately turned to the left and asked in a deep voice: "Distance? Type? Rank? Can you see the characteristics?"

Rhodes choked up. These questions were beyond the scope.

Caramon had told him some things, but his words were so trivial that he could not remember them for a moment.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately answered one of them: "Probably less than a hundred meters!"

Egg frowned: "What one hundred meters? How many steps, how many yards?"

Rhodes choked again, but fortunately during the crisis, his mind turned very fast and his thoughts were very clear, and he immediately shouted: "Three hundred steps!"

Caramon lowered his voice: "Don't use such a loud voice, it will alarm it!"

"late!"

The roar came from the distance, and the black shadow rushed over at an extremely fast speed. Its tiny short legs carried the huge body comically. Every step it took made a huge roar. The ground was shaking, and black mud came from the sewer. The top fell off like a black rain.

boom!

There was a loud bang, and before Rhodes could react, Raistlin had already collided with it.

There was a flash of white shadow in front of him, and a huge thick white smoke passed over him and sprayed towards the black shadow, while another smoke enveloped him and moved to the back.
