The Last Dark King

Latest website: The expression on Rhodes's face remained unchanged, but there was a huge wave of panic in his heart.

After so many things, the previous Lord of Dreams, Hege Aur, is still here.

The most amazing thing is that it actually entered the wasteland of souls.

This is the inside of the obelisk, the most secret place in the dreamland.

Rhodes did not completely believe the figure in front of him. He clearly remembered the last incident. Amon used the evil thoughts buried deep in Hegeol's remaining soul to try to corrode his soul and pollute the dream.

If his will wasn't as strong as steel, Amon would have succeeded.

After killing the evil thoughts, Hegeol's name on the tombstone completely turned black, and his name was burning as if on fire. It was as if only after that, he was truly recognized by the dream and became The complete master of dreams.

Therefore, the list of "Dream Apostles" appeared behind the tombstone, and there was a pile of ashes of corpses under the tombstone.

Rhodes remembered putting it into the storage room in the House of God. As soon as he thought about it, the feedback from the dream came with him. This also made Rhodes breathe a sigh of relief - when he was invaded by evil thoughts, he could not feel the dream at all. of.

In the storage room, various materials are solidified in a special time and space without any changes, except for the ashes!

really!

This shadow is related to Hegeal.

Rhodes looked at him warily, ready to fight at any time. Although Amon had been eaten, there was no guarantee that there would be no residue. The sense of security in front of him might just be a cover.

The figure noticed his vigilance, but didn't care.

"I understand your wariness."

He said in a calm tone.

"This is my mistake. Due to my failure, I was greatly polluted before my death. My body was desecrated, and my soul was twisted and cursed. The ancient evil thoughts wanted to completely destroy me and me through this method. Dream...I'm sorry, I have to use the word dream. This is the definition of you, the new Lord of Dreams."

Rhodes felt a chill in his heart and couldn't help but ask: "Dream...is it defined by me?"

"Yes, the dream is meaningful only if the master exists. Without the master, the dream is just a concept, just like the laws and rules in the sea of ​​sources... Oh, you call it the source. This is why they plotted against me. , but it does not cause pollution to the dream.”

Rhodes was stunned: "What do you mean?"

The figure showed a faint smile.

"Remember the moment you got the dream? It was like your brain was smashed with a hammer."

Rhodes frowned and immediately remembered.

"Isn't that because you... are crazy and attacking the obelisk?"

The figure said without hesitation:

"Yes, that is my source soul that has turned black and gone crazy. When there is no master, the time in the dream will not pass. The dream will not be observed, cannot be touched, has no entity, just like the law of the source. It’s a certain kind of law…The moment you become its master, everything starts again.”

He paused.

"Starting from the time of my death."

Rhodes hesitated and asked, "Then why..."

The figure said calmly:

"You threw my soul into the Red Star, the Devourer of Darkness, which is the core of the dream and our origin. The moment you became the master of the dream, you also became the Devourer of Darkness, the representative of the Red Star. By."

"When the owner of the dream dies, he will return to the stars... until the next owner appears."

"It's just because my death was so special that there were some twists and turns in the process... and therefore hidden dangers were laid. Evil thoughts were hidden in the stars through my soul, trying to attack you at the right time and occupy you. body, tampering with your spirit, thereby achieving the purpose of usurping dreams and annihilating 'human life'."

The figure looked at him, his shadowed eyes full of complex emotions and a bit of surprise.

"But you, the stranger Rhodes, shattered his conspiracy, defeated his terrible evil thoughts, and did not let him succeed."

"Your will is amazing. I couldn't understand why you became the master of the dream, but at that moment, I knew that there is a reason why the dream chooses any master."

It wasn't until this moment that Rhodes understood the whole story. While feeling lucky, he couldn't help but sigh at the magic of fate, and said humbly: "Hahaha, yes, you are right."

"certainly."

The figure's smile turned bitter.

"I am an exception. A pathetic loser like me should be permanently removed from the Dreamland and not qualified to appear on the tombstone."

Rhodes sympathized with Hegeol's experience, but he couldn't think of words to comfort him and could only keep his mouth shut.

But the figure did not continue speaking, and his expression became serious.

"What I want to tell you now is a very important thing. Adolis and Avro failed to think of it in time and tell you about it. This was a serious dereliction of duty on their part. If it had happened before, they would have been seriously punishment, but now, it’s your power.”

He paused and continued.

"As I said just now, the Red Star Dark Devourer is the core of the dream and our true nature. This is an existence beyond the soul."

"Under normal conditions, its power should be passed down from generation to generation."

"But due to my special situation, before I died, I separated it and threw it out of the dream... To put it simply, the current Red Star has no soul."

Rhodes suddenly understood.

"No wonder the star power provided by the Dark Devourer is so little. It was only 200 before quantification, and only 6,000 after quantification."

The figure nodded and continued.

"So, when my source soul returned to the stars, it immediately reached a critical state, but it did not provide star energy."

"Even if you complete the quantification, it doesn't have much power, and it doesn't show its true capabilities."

"Not only that, because it is your destiny, your body and soul are actually very weak, so your growth will be so slow and your growth path will be so tortuous. This is very rare among the dream masters in the past. of."

Rhodes scratched his head and asked tentatively.

"You mean, if everything goes normally, I will be strong in the beginning?"

The figure replied:

"Yes, you will get a very strong star and gain all its abilities after completing the quantification. You will quickly become a strong man in this human kingdom and grow at an amazing speed, not so slowly. "Snail travel."

The moment he heard this answer, Rhodes felt as if his five-flavor bottle had been knocked over. If this could really be the case, then his growth would not have had so many twists and turns, and he would not have a black rice bucket like the King of Sewers. Terrible title.

Rhodes asked, holding back the pain in his heart.

"Then where should I find the soul of the Dark Devourer?"

The figure said cautiously.

"I threw it into the Sea of ​​Chaos... This is one of the areas in the high-level spiritual world. If I guessed correctly, Asmons, the King of the Deep Sea, swallowed it. You can kill it to regain this power. "

Rhodes' eyes widened.

"Sea of ​​Chaos? King of the Deep Sea Asmons?"

The figure gave him a strange look.

"Yes...have you met it?"

Rhodes swallowed.

No wonder this guy always chases him and the dream world, even running to the material world. It turns out that he smells something similar to his devouring power.

"Well... I have encountered it twice. The most recent time it broke through the barriers of space and came to the ancient city of Sagus, and it also took away my Divine Sword of Destiny."

There was a hint of surprise in the figure's eyes.

"Sword of Destiny?"

Rhodes briefly told what happened in the ancient city of Sagus, including the effects of the past he had seen.

The figure fell into a long silence. After a long time, he sighed.

"It turns out that the God of Destiny and the God of Flesh and Rebirth still have such a past."

"That was the ancient times, the era of gods. The God of Destiny was able to meet such a distant future. He did not give the relic to me, or the previous Lords of Dreams, but directly chose you. One of them must be There is a reason.”

The figure looked at him, and his eyes in the shadows became sharp.

"You are special."

Rhodes sighed.

"It's useless. A more powerful unknown existence has distorted the established destiny. Every backhand of fate is a more powerful disaster for me. Now, I am facing a worse situation."

The figure also sighed.

"It's a pity that my soul has died. Otherwise, I would be able to dig out more secrets and give you some good suggestions."

Rhodes smiled.

"Isn't it the same now? After I returned to the royal city this time, I immediately requested to organize forces to attack the King of the Deep Sea."

The figure nodded.

"You are very weak now, so it is necessary to rely on human power..."

His words were suddenly interrupted, and the shadow became transparent, giving it a somewhat illusive feeling.

"Oh, my time is coming. It's a pity. I wanted to chat with you for a longer time... What a pity..."

Rhodes was also a little reluctant. He had too many things to ask the former Dream Master, but at this moment, he didn't know what to ask.

"Oh, right."

The figure suddenly thought of something again and said.

"Since you don't know about the Red Star, you definitely don't know about the Star Soul either."

Rhodes asked in surprise: "What is a star soul?"

The figure did not answer immediately, but turned around and opened his hands.

"Look, this wasteland of souls, these countless ashes, do you know what this is?"

At this last moment, the figure became high-spirited, and his tone was full of passion and pride.

Rhodes was stunned for a moment and asked instinctively: "What is it?"

"This is the palace where countless human heroes gather. Since the emergence of the dark disaster, for thousands of years, the bones of all human heroes have been buried. Their will, their strength, their flesh and blood souls, the wasteland has left all their They all stay here, just waiting for the day it will be rekindled."

"The stars you ignite are all human beings' heroic spirits."

"It is these infinite heroic spirits that have gathered together to form the greatness of the dream."

"Light it up and let it become a star to light the way for those who come after you. This is the best tribute to their souls."

"but."

The figure suddenly changed his tone and said seriously.

"Do you think it's done after quantification?"

"No, no, you are missing the most crucial step - obtaining the soul of the stars!"

"The star soul is the true core of a star, which contains all the thoughts and emotions of its owner. Only by obtaining the star soul can you truly obtain a complete star and gain its true power!"

The figure's words were like thunder that cracked open Rhode's skull, and a stream of fresh air poured from the top of his head, like an enlightenment. At this moment, Rhode finally understood that he had consumed so many souls and resources, and the power he gained was far from enough. Proportional reason!

It turns out that this most critical step is missing!

Obtain the star soul of a star!

Rhodes suddenly remembered that the Book of Knowledge once vaguely said that after the quantification is completed, the stars will still have one level.

But its words were very vague at the time, and Rhodes didn't pay attention.

Thinking about it now, the Book of Knowledge should have noticed something was wrong, but the lack of memory made it unable to understand what was wrong.

"How do I get the Star Soul?" Rhodes asked urgently.

The figure shook his head: "You should find the fragments of the dream first. Part of the dream's function is missing."

Rhodes suddenly understood. No wonder there was no hint about it in the dream.

But where is this fragment?

The figure seemed to know what he was thinking, recalling: "During the Battle of Broken Dreams, I was besieged by the kings. Now that I think about it, I should probably be in the Ice Prison - an area in the high-level spiritual world. You have the Heavenly Sphere." The bell should be looked for there.”

Rhodes carefully wrote down every word of his words, and then took the time to ask.

"The Battle of Shattered Dreams?"

The figure's expression darkened, but his speaking speed increased.

"Yes, that was the end of the Age of Fire. The coming of dark turmoil and catastrophe ended our last hope."

"This is a long story, but I'm running out of time and I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it."

The figure gradually faded, along with the surrounding darkness.

Rhodes suddenly remembered something and asked hurriedly: "Where is the Devourer of Darkness?"

The figure replied: "It is special. It is a complete star. Its star soul has already returned to its place. It has been passed down from generation to generation by the Lord of Dreams... What I separated is actually its star soul. It takes away most of its star energy."

Rhodes took a long breath and made a decision in his heart. Killing the King of the Deep Sea has become his most important thing now. The second thing is to go to the Ice Prison to find the dream fragments.

"Thank you." He said seriously.

In these last moments, the figure raised his head, and Rhodes saw his eyes full of sadness.

"I am just a memory, an image of the past, a by-product of the distortion of evil thoughts. Although it has no meaning, I still want to know from your mouth, has the Kingdom of Stars... been destroyed?"

Rhodes nodded slightly.

"Perished, according to time calculation, about a hundred years after your death."

The figure's energy became obviously haggard, full of loneliness, and he asked softly.

"What about the Queen of Stars? Reina...how is she?"

Rhodes briefly told him all the results.

A bright light suddenly burst out from the figure's eyes, and he murmured: "Ah, as expected, it's you, Reina, Reina... I'm sorry, it's me, it's me..."

Before he finished speaking, he burst into tears.

The shadows dissipated quickly, and soon he disappeared without a trace, leaving only the last two words.

"Be careful of ancient evil thoughts...there is more than one person who framed me."

"On the Eternal Statue Square, I left a trace of Rena. You can summon her...but only once."

The words disappeared, and the former master of dreams disappeared forever in the long river of history and ceased to exist.
