the last king of darkness

Chapter 11 The Eye of the Soul
The black air dissipated, and a black altar suddenly appeared on the pale land.

It has a radius of only five meters and a height of two meters. It is the second building with strong colors in this colorless dreamland.

Rhodes stared at it dumbfounded.

The surface of the black altar does not have any texture decoration, and the style is very simple.

But in the middle of the altar, there is a huge, open palm, with a huge eye made of black blood in the palm.

Exactly the same as the one on the back of his hand before.

Rhodes looked at the back of his hand again, and it was as clean as new without a trace.

That is to say, this eye pattern is to summon this altar in the dream?

Rhodes had some ominous premonition in his heart.

He climbed up to the altar and watched the palm carefully.

It appeared to be made of some kind of stone rather than living flesh.

This made him heave a sigh of relief, carefully stretched out his hand, and lightly touched the palm of his hand.

Suddenly, a line of information flooded into my mind.

【Eye of Soul】

See through the falsehood, penetrate the fog, see the soul, penetrate the essence, observe the specificity of all spirits, and know the flow of the source.

Concentrate on the space between the eyes, arouse spiritual energy, tap the center of the eyebrows, and activate the [Eye of the Soul].

Be careful not to directly observe the existence that is too far from your own psionic potential.

-

The message was in Common Tongue, accompanied by voice, or his tone.

This successfully avoided the low-lying area of ​​Rhodes' ability.

The content is very rich, not only the eye of the soul, but also all relevant information.

Rhodes was dazzled, and he had never felt so happy reading the manual.

"Why isn't it like this on the obelisk?"

Rhodes was very dissatisfied. If there weren't so many ghost words, he wouldn't have to be so troublesome.

After careful research, Rhodes discovered that the activation method of [Eye of Soul] is very simple, the only problem is how to arouse the spiritual energy.

Psionics is the power of the soul, the source of the use of all attributes.

Training, enhancing, and using psychic powers are among the most important topics for fire bearers.

Rhodes hasn't learned the relevant content yet, but there is in the information.

According to the method in the message, after several hours of repeated attempts, Rhodes aroused his spiritual energy.

It was a wisp of mist emitting a faint light, flickering at the fingertips, and had a wonderful connection with his spirit.

"It's amazing."

Rhodes controlled the flow of spiritual energy through his fingertips, feeling this wonderful power.

It is like a ghost, which can appear anywhere in his body at will.

But if you leave your body, the connection with his spirit will be severed and quickly fly away.

After getting acquainted with the use of psychic energy, Rhodes focused on the area between his eyes and controlled the psychic energy to flash between his eyebrows.

A few seconds later, the eyes became hot, and the [Eye of Soul] was activated.

The line of sight became extremely clear, but the surrounding scene remained unchanged.

The psionic energy between the eyebrows was consumed rapidly, and Rhodes had to continue to replenish it, but the continuous use of the psionic energy made the spirit exhausted.

As soon as his attention was distracted, the [Eye of Soul] closed by itself.

"Still not very skilled."

Rhodes thought to himself, but it didn't seem to have a particularly big effect.

Instead of trying again, he fell into deep thought.

The appearance of the altar gave him an ability and a message.

This proves that he is the master of this dream, and all changes in the dream are related to him.

If the existence of the eyes is to summon the altar, then his suspicion of being the ultimate beneficiary has already exploded.

No, not right.

Rhodes rejected this guess.

He still thinks he's a good guy despite everything the evidence points against him.

Believe it or not, he did anyway.

"I will clear the suspicion."

"Maybe the text in the obelisk has some clues. I'll go to the library to check it out as soon as I wake up."

But how to wake up from the dream?
Rhodes recalled the last experience, when his body seemed to be caught by something, he had a strong sense of falling, and then he woke up from the dream.

He imitated the feeling in his imagination, but without success.

He tried to fall or lie on the ground again, but was also unsuccessful.

After thinking for a long time, Rhodes thought of the lightning symbol again, no matter before or after crossing, there is its shadow.

Maybe give it a try.

Rhode's two thumbs overlapped, his left index finger pointed upwards, his right index pointed downwards, and his three fingers curled up and turned 180 degrees, forming a staggered lightning bolt.

A strong sense of falling suddenly appeared, and the spirit appeared in a trance for a moment.

When he opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the dormitory.

What caught the eye was the light yellow roof, and the warm orange light flowed in the air, as if there was a burning fire in the house.

And he was lying on the bed, holding the symbol with both hands.

Bang bang bang echoed in my ears.

A female voice yelled.

"Open the door, open the door! It's class, are you going to be late for the first day of class?"

For a moment, Rhodes had a strange sense of trance, as if he was back in his student days, being urged by the kind, memorable, but very annoying study committee member at the time.

But he quickly dispelled the illusion, and the tenacious spirit returned to the soul.

"coming."

Rhode agreed, jumped out of bed, opened the hammered door, and was surprised to find a lot of people standing outside the door.

They were all wearing light blue school robes and holding several thick books.

And the one who hammered the door was the blonde girl Kashan.

She also changed into a school robe, tied up her blond hair, and gently swayed her two strands of hair on her cheeks, making her look bright and charming, but at the same time have a touch of nobility and elegance.

But at this moment, she looked very angry, her light blue eyes were wide open, and her eyebrows like willows were almost raised.

"Rod! You have the guts to sleep, don't you have the guts to open the door for me? I'm going to knock the door down!"

Rhodes scratched the back of his head: "Why you?"

"Why not me?" Kashan asked rhetorically, with the air of a study committee member.

Wayne poked his head out from behind her, with a slightly gloomy expression on his face: "She is our team leader, and we are all students in the tenth department and tenth group of the third hospital. You slept so hard yesterday when you were in the group, I didn't wake you up. , let’s go first.”

Kashan said sternly: "Today's main class is very important. It is Teacher Karaman's "Extraordinary Soul". We are about to start learning psionics. We are never allowed to be late. Do you want to deduct points from us?"

A small girl behind him said weakly: "Leader, let's go, it's getting late..."

Kashan glared at Rhodes: "Take "Extraordinary Soul" and "Basic Combat Theory" and set off immediately!"

"It's these two books! Are you illiterate? You don't even know the words?"

Rhodes didn't argue with her, and quickly took the two books she was referring to and joined the team.

The team walked out quickly under the leadership of Kashan.

She was still preaching as she walked.

"You know, as the fire holders of the spark sequence, we should work harder, Rhodes, your first fire is not good, you should work harder and strive to light another fire at the end of the semester, so that you can have hope Enter the Knights after graduation."

Her attitude was a little aggressive, not the same as yesterday.

But Rhodes didn't care, and kept thinking about the library.

Instead, Wayne mumbled, "Isn't the Knights your dream? Rhodes lost his memory..."

"Shut up!" Kashan scolded: "If you lose your memory, you can't have dreams? Your first fire is not good, and the guardian crystal has very narrow uses. If you don't ignite the second fire! It is impossible to get a high score in combat class." Minute!"

Wayne blushed all over his face: "I don't want to get a high score, just pass."

Kashan said coldly: "Your thinking is a cancer of human beings..."

Wayne retorted fiercely: "What is a cancer? I know where my limit is, and doing what I can is the greatest contribution!"

Along the way, the two were arguing non-stop, and the other 20 people followed behind them silently without speaking.

They walked out of the dormitory building and walked through the tree-lined path, and their eyes suddenly opened up.

Countless students in light blue school robes hurried on the cobbled road, the lake in the distance reflected the sparkling light under the continuous lights, and the teaching area composed of countless turrets, towers and castles was located in the entire courtyard. The very center of the district.

The windows shone brightly in the bright light, and even the black mist oppressing the sky was not so scary.

Both Kassan and Wayne stopped arguing, soaking in the exuberant spectacle.

At this time, a huge voice sounded over the academy.

"Good morning, students of Kingworth, today is the 26th, and the time is [-]:[-] in the morning. I am Kazan, the announcer."

"I'm very happy to share a piece of good news with you. The Observatory just told me that the fourth fire day in February, the first moon day, came to us at the same time! Dear students, please take advantage of this good time and hurry up to class, Study hard and burn your youth for the holy fire of Wangcheng!"

"Class will start in a quarter of an hour, please don't be late."

With the broadcasting sound from the radio tower, they also mixed into the flow of people and became one of the thousands of fire-wielding students, rushing towards their respective futures.
