the last king of darkness

Chapter 103 Cessation of activities
After thinking for a long time, Rhodes forcibly suppressed the desire to continue exploring, and chose three embers of the star bonfire, keeping them as backup, intending to make another choice at a critical moment.

they are, respectively:
【Spirit Boat】

【Giant Power】

【Starry Night Warbler】

All of them can be ignited by Rhodes under the existing conditions.

After that, Rhodes sacrificed all the dusty souls, small or large soul fragments obtained. The only function of these souls is to provide soulless souls and spirituality.

A total of 2810 dust, 83 small fragments, 76 large fragments, 12011 spiritless souls, and 61 spirituality.

There were also many souls of doomsday believers, and Rhodes sacrificed them after listening to them.

Obtained 610 spiritless souls and 35 living spirits.

The harvest is not bad, but lower than expected.

Rhodes found that many doomsday believers seemed to have some problems with their souls. Not only could they not hear voices, they also had no names.

Generally speaking, the souls of sacrificed people will get a living spirituality, but not only do they not have a living spirituality, they don't even have spirituality.

Maybe it was some kind of cruel torture or transformation.

Rhodes thought.

Rhodes didn't get any useful information from the souls of other doomsday believers, it was all noisy desires, and the soul of the black priest was full of endless fear, regret, and resentment.

The strange thing is, she didn't resent Rhodes who killed her, but resented why the three leaders of the Polluter Sect didn't come to rescue her, why they arranged her in the Iron Ingot block, and caused her to meet Rhodes, why didn't they Let her give up the Brain Eater plan and stop her risky behavior.

This guy is hopeless... Rhodes shook his head and walked down the soul altar in a little disappointment.

He now has 14622 souls, 62 spirits, and 74 living spirits.

When I came to the obelisk, my fingertips lightly touched the surface of the obelisk.

In the deep night sky, three stars of dark red, blue and bright yellow are shining.

Among them, the blue light is the brightest.

Although the dark red light is inconspicuous, it sits in the center, and the red light is reflected in the background, which cannot be covered up.

The bright yellow light is dimmer.

[Justice Execution] is still the lowest dim fire and weak burning.

There's a lot of room for improvement, but first you need to make Soul Firewood.

It is the core of the star bonfire, which can improve the utilization rate of fuel.

Rhodes didn't know this before, and suffered a lot.

Soul Pyrene requires one medium and one strong soul, ten parts of humanity, one part of divinity, one radiance stone and ten parts of any monster ashes.

Among them, the powerful soul can be replaced by 100 spirits and 50000 spiritless souls.

That's not a small number, a lot of souls to hunt.

It would be great if there are still leaks like Plague Demon that can be picked up.

Rhodes thought silently.

He left the obelisk, came to the stone platform, and lit the candles skillfully.

The 50 sunstones and 100 grams of star ruby ​​powder promised by Lauren have arrived.

Several vicious battles in a row wiped out his hole cards, just in time to make some "spirit-sealing bullets" and "soul ashes".

"Hmm... ten real silver bullets, three for spirituality, one for humanity, and one gram of star ruby ​​powder, that's it."

With a clanking sound, the tools on the stone platform completed the work by themselves.

Ten bullets with spiritual patterns appeared in front of them.

Rhodes smiled a little and put away the bullets. The "Spirit Sealing Bullet" is extremely useful. It has a very strong impact on the soul, and it can easily create a huge hole in the soul.

Paired with "Soul Crit", it is simply a sharp weapon for killing monsters.

In the past, supplies were scarce, and it took a long time to use one.

Now that Rhodes is rich and powerful, he directly made a hundred of them.

Then there's "Ash of the Soul".

Rhodes thought for a while, and put the soul and ashes of the brain eater on it, and then put ten parts of humanity, a sun stone.

One click and the making begins.

However, after the production was completed, Rhodes discovered that it turned out to be [the soul ashes of the chaotic brain eater].

How is this going?Isn't this the ashes of the soul made of polluted sunstones?

But I obviously used the sunstone that Lauren gave me.

In order to confirm whether he made a mistake, Rhodes took another Sun Stone and placed it on the slate.

This time he saw it clearly, what was displayed on the slate was [Chaotic Soul Ashes], and the material below became "Polluted Sunstone".

wrong.

Oops!

Rhodes immediately realized that the situation was not good.

The Sun Stone that Lauren gave him was applied by the Internal Affairs Tribunal from the Logistics Department.

This proved that his previous warning hadn't worked, and the polluted Sun Stone hadn't been identified and had flowed into the royal city.

He quickly tried all the remaining 49 sun stones.

All are polluted.

not good!

The Polluter Cult's eclipse project is about to succeed!

Rhodes immediately returned to the material world, wrote down this amazing discovery as quickly as possible, and sent it out with the spirit crow messenger.

During the waiting time, Rhodes was very anxious. Ever since he learned the truth, he and the Polluter Sect had become complete mortal enemies, and using rumors to deal with possible revenge was only a temporary means.

The best solution is to kill them all.

If their plan succeeds, among other things, Rhodes, the "betrayer", will definitely not end well.

Of course, Rhodes was sure that they must have made a mistake somewhere. He didn't have the power of the "god who devours filthy excrement" that the black priest said at all. This was completely prejudice and misunderstanding. The source of the other secrets.

Moreover, there must be problems with their interpretation of the "Book of Doomed Death". The fragments they are looking for are obviously fragments of dreams, which do not contain any kind of power, nor can they be assembled into weapons.

Most likely their interpreter was the same as the guy who translated "black jerk".

This is also very detrimental to Rhodes. If they searched the fragments away, wouldn't they be unable to get them?
Just as he was thinking, suddenly, a huge hand protruded from the void, pinched Rhodes, and dragged him back before he could react.

In a blink of an eye, the world suddenly became grotesque, and various light clusters and color blocks were piled together in a chaotic and mottled manner, and the space was filled with a strange sense of confusion.

This, isn't this the spirit world?

Rhodes was taken aback.

He has only entered the spirit world once, and he knows that the spirit world is another world opposite to the material world, but the rules are completely different from the material world, and it is very dangerous for non-spiritual creatures to operate in it.

Didn't I meet a powerful spirit world monster?
The big hand held him tightly, it was bony, the brown dry skin was clinging to the bone, and the long arms had been submerged in the invisible color block, dragging Rhodes back quickly.

Its speed is so fast that all the color blocks are blurred into one piece.

Rhodes struggled with all his strength, but the strength of his big hand was so strong that he couldn't break free no matter how much psionic energy he summoned.

But only a few seconds later, Rhode's eyes blurred again, and he returned to the material world.

The big hand gently put him down, and quickly retracted into the void as if fleeing.

Rhode's eyes were dull, and when he looked up, he saw Lauren, the cold, majestic, and grand hall behind him, and countless people sitting on the stepped seats.

This, is this the Internal Affairs Tribunal?How did I get here?

Everyone looked at him, Lauren's tone was a little anxious, but he still said calmly: "Relax, Rhodes, don't be nervous, that is our tool, you organize your thoughts, and describe your findings in detail." Say it."

Rhodes settled down, and his rational thinking returned. He quickly understood that the big hand might be some kind of special summoning method.

Seeing the urgency of the situation, the Internal Affairs Tribunal used this emergency method to drag him here.

He took a deep breath, calmed down his nervous emotions, turned his eyes to everyone in the seat, and explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail.

Of course, the reason for the discovery became what he saw with super-high spiritual vision.

As soon as the words fell, someone in the seat questioned: "This is impossible! The logistics department has used nine senior full-fledged clairvoyants, and none of them found any abnormalities. Why did you find any abnormalities?"

Rhodes thumped in his heart.

Worse, I didn't expect that although a person with perfect vision is rare, it is impossible for me to be the only one in the entire Trorian Kingdom.

But at this point, it is impossible to change the words.

Rhodes took out a sun stone in his arms, and said calmly: "The best verification method is to use it immediately, and practice is the only criterion for verifying the truth."

Chief Judge Hei Xiong agreed, "I think he's right."

One justice objected: "This is a complete waste of time, he is grandstanding and wants more compensation!"

Another justice dissented against the objection: "The stakes are high, and I think a little caution is warranted."

The old man in a balance robe sitting at the front said quietly: "Call the laboratory."

It wasn't loud, but the whole hall immediately fell silent.

After a while, several people in blue-gray robes rushed in, one of them was holding a copper lamp, and the other quickly took the Sun Stone from Rhodes' hand.

Unable to see the ripples kneading in his hands, the stone turned into powder in an instant.

"It's the fastest way to do phlogiston."

He explained briefly, and another person turned on the copper lamp, and a ball of bright light was suspended inside.

That is the "afterglow" separated from the fire, and most lamps use it to illuminate.

He added a bit of powder to his peripheral vision, and it got brighter, but nothing else.

"No problem," he said.

In the seats, many people showed a hint of disappointment in their eyes.

Iron Mask Manolobana, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "I'll just say he's a liar."

"Not necessarily." The chief adjudicator, Mipoll, said: "We can assume that it is true based on the adjudication principle. Then, this kind of pollution must be very small and very hidden. We need to pour all the powder into it."

The inspector nodded, held the copper lamp with one hand, input spiritual energy, and poured all the powder into it.

The peripheral vision began to flicker, it couldn't absorb so much phlogiston for a while, and countless powders floated in the air inside the copper lamp.

The inspector increased the spiritual energy input and accelerated the catalytic absorption.

The peripheral vision quickly became bright and incandescent, like a small sun, illuminating the entire hall.

Suddenly, the light dimmed, and a bit of blackness spread from the depths of the sun. The peripheral vision was quickly blackened, and an ominous black light illuminated the entire scene.

puff.

The next second, the light went out.

In the hall, there was no sound.

The old man at the front stood up.

"Immediately notify the Supreme Council, immediately stop all addition and production of phlogiston, pending further inspection."

He glanced at the iron masks on the first row of seats.

"Manolo Bana, you are suspended pending our questioning."
