the last king of darkness

Chapter 116 Who Said That?
Rhodes had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

[Justice Execution] It has been stuck in the weak burning position for a long time, and he didn't even ignite the fourth star.

Otherwise, in the state of non-constant combustion, the stars will continue to consume humanity, and the loss is too great.

It's a bit unbearable to be human all the time.

He just wants to be humanized.

After careful preparations, the team of hunting evil spirits set off quickly.

The wasteland of corpses is a large area in front of Jianguan, and at the end of it is Liguang Fortress, one of the core strongholds of the inner defense circle.

The so-called defense circle is actually a continuous line of defense established by castles, fortresses, forts, outposts and other human strongholds, relying on patrols and regular hunting to clean up monsters coming from the dark depths.

The defense circle is divided into three layers: outer, middle and inner.

The outer defensive circle represents the limit that the royal city can control. It faces the desolate darkness and resists the greatest threat.

The middle defense circle is the backbone of the entire defense line. A large number of patrols and battle groups will eliminate most of the monsters that reach this level.

The inner defense circle is at the end of the defense line, and is responsible for cleaning up the threats missed by the first two layers, including some areas of the Red Earth Plain, some cities, villages and towns, and the area outside the royal city.

However, this still cannot guarantee the absolute safety of the hinterland of the kingdom.

Therefore, Wangcheng has also set up a large number of defense zones. The defense zone headed by the guardians is responsible for the security of the area. The Wangcheng also organizes cleaning or hunting teams from time to time to eliminate threats that appear on the red soil plain.

Jianguan belongs to the seventh defense area, and its guardian is Jon. He is in charge of the middle part of the inner defense circle including Jianguan, Liguang Fortress and Giant Fortress, as well as the southeastern area of ​​the Red Earth Plain.

Along the way, Heiyu, the captain of the hunting team, kept introducing them to the situation here.

He is a young seventh-level combatant, about twenty years old, tall and thin, very enthusiastic and talkative.

There are a total of ten people in the team, five scouts and five fighters. They only brought peripheral vision and red tearstones, so the range of the light is only a few yards, and the black mist is within reach.

But everyone was not worried because they knew that Jianguan Fortress was nearby.

Soon, they arrived at the predetermined place.

"We're going to part here."

Black Fish said.

"Two people form a team, one clairvoyant and one combatant. The evil spirits are scattered over a wider area. We use this method to be more efficient."

"This is the light bomb, use it to call for help when you encounter danger, this is the astrolabe, use it for positioning, don't get lost."

"Now, let's adjust the time. It is one hour, three quarters and seven minutes at night time, and the hunting time is two hours. We must return to Jianguan Fortress before night time. Is there a problem?"

Everyone replied in unison: "No."

"Annabelle, Mia, Ian, Lager, each of you has a combatant, Rhodes, come with me."

Annabe couldn't help but said, "Captain Blackfish, Rhodes is very fragile, you have to protect him carefully."

Heiyu smiled and said: "Don't worry, when you leave the sword pass, your captains took turns to warn me, and the guard chief also warned me, after all, he is a complete clairvoyant, baby, even if I die, he won't die."

Annabelle didn't believe in his strength: "Why don't you let me play with Rhodes."

She paused slightly: "My characteristic is the awakening of magic power."

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes turned.

Heiyu was stunned for a moment, and then spit out two words: "Amazing, amazing, it seems that your combat level cannot represent your strength, but in this case, you two clairvoyants will walk together, and we will have two stone-wood cores It's free."

He patted his chest and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, my characteristic is a defensive barrier, a seventh-level combatant, and I once fought bravely with Master Alan on the Hill of the Dead..."

A soldier shouted: "Stop blowing it! You were lying on the ground in a coma the whole time."

Heiyu blushed and said angrily, "What do you know? I also fought against a corrupt dragon, do you know that? That dragon is bigger than the entire Jianguan."

"Forget it, you've said it a hundred times, and firing a shot from two thousand yards counts as a fight?"

Heiyu said angrily: "If you belittle me again, I will get angry! What do you mean by two thousand yards? It's obviously only one thousand and eight hundred yards!"

The soldiers all showed helpless expressions and kept silent.

"Anyway."

Hei Yu slapped his chest.

"I'm very reliable! Brother Rhode's safety rests on me, let's go!"

Annabe sighed and had to follow the other warrior.

Rhodes also followed Heiyu to the northeast.

Along the way, Blackfish kept emphasizing how strong, reliable, and proficient in combat skills he was, and instilled in Rhodes his superior war concepts.

"My psychic strength is as high as 21 thousand cuts, and my psychic level has reached 5. Whether in the academy or in the legion, I am the strongest in the same group and team. You only need to boldly point out the location of the monster, and everything else Leave it all to me."

"Although I don't know the serial number of your organization, it can be seen that you have been active in the safe area and the core area for a long time, and you don't know much about the way we fight in the outer area."

"In our place, if you see a threat, you must not rush forward rashly. You must approach it cautiously. Follow Flor's principle to check whether there are traps nearby or other threats..."

"By the way, what fighting style are you used to?"

Rhodes replied casually: "Stable."

Heiyu slapped his thigh: "That's right, you have to be steady! You have to be patient, persistent and persistent, because monsters are endless and threats are endless. You need to maintain your edge and stab at critical moments..."

Rhodes hardly listened to him, he just wanted to hunt more monsters quickly, get more souls, make [Soul Firewood] as soon as possible, and increase the intensity of [Justice Execution].

The blankness on the invasion face made him feel a strange sense of unease all the time.

Only with greater strength and more hole cards can he get rid of this feeling.

Suddenly, Heiyu shouted: "Here we come! There is something nearby!"

Rhode turned his head quickly, and sure enough, he saw a white spirit body.

It was about two people tall, with a head that looked like a crushed paste, hands that were slender sickles, and no legs.

Words quickly appeared on the eyes of the soul.

"Raging Demon"

Rhodes knew that this was the real name fed back by the eye of the soul based on its soul fluctuations.

There is no specific data about it under the real name, which means that there is no record about it in the soul altar.

——This is the result of Rhodes' recent study of dreams.

The evil spirit swam in the air, making a strange humming sound.

Heiyu shouted: "Be careful, it's nearby, my badge is vibrating! These evil spirits are very difficult to deal with, the sickle in its hand does very high damage, and ordinary spiritual defenses can't resist it, and its attacks are treacherous and difficult. Test, don't approach it rashly, we'd better... what are you doing?"

Rhodes paused, and rushed out with a stride.

The evil spirit was alarmed, let out a neigh, and rushed towards him.

The badge on Heiyu's body vibrated crazily, showing that the evil spirit had been enraged.

He hurriedly opened the barrier, layers of barrier light and shadow flashed across his body, and drew out the knife, a powerful light of spiritual energy flashed on the blade.

"Don't be afraid, Rhodes, I'm here to save you!"

boom!
Rhodes shot the evil spirit.

There is a huge hole in its soul, its protective body is incomplete, and it is full of flaws.

The spirit-sealing bullet has a powerful spiritual shock effect, even if it is a soul without a flaw, it can force a flaw. If it directly hits the hole in the soul, it will instantly cause a huge stiffening effect.

The evil spirit was hit right at the most vulnerable place, and the spirit-sealing bullet hit the spirit body and shattered into powder, but the powerful impact effect of psychic energy had passed through the gap of psychic energy and penetrated into the hollow of the soul. His entire spiritual body caused a huge shock.

Bang!
There was a strange muffled sound in the void, like a broken drum of the soul being hammered.

The evil spirit fell directly from the sky, its psychic energy became disordered, and the entire spirit body became extremely unstable.

Rhodes raised his right hand, and a sickle-shaped moon hook appeared on the back of his hand. The right hand became transparent, and dazzling luminosity evaporated.

Heiyu stopped in mid-air, looking at Rhodes' right hand in surprise.

"This, what is this? This feeling of soul oppression... my soul is trembling, its instincts are threatening my soul, no no, this feeling, it is squeezing my existence... this is An attack on the soul!"

Boom!There was another muffled sound.

Heiyu saw Rhodes' right hand suddenly plunged into the void, as if grabbing something, and then yanked it out.

An invisible hiss sounded in the air.

This is the howling of evil spirits.

Although Heiyu couldn't see it, he knew that the soul of a monster had dissipated forever, and the condensed darkness was lifted into the void, returning to their origin.

The fine black ash dispersed, and a cloud of pale ash fell to the ground.

Heiyu took two steps forward and picked up a clot from the ashes.

It resembles a coat of arms with crossed swords.

These are the ashes of evil spirits.

Heiyu looked at Rhodes, who was looking at the void, looking at something with joy.

He couldn't help asking: "Is this what you mean by stability?"

Rhodes turned his head, and the good harvest made the smile on his face very obvious.

"That's right, only when the monster is dead can we be absolutely safe."

-

Hei Yu choked for a long time and did not speak.

According to this principle, all his combat styles are the most adventurous.

"You absolutely must not do this!"

Heiyu said seriously.

"When you act outside, you must obey the captain's arrangement, and I am not only the captain, but also the strongest person. Although your strange soul attack is very strong, it must consume a lot of energy. You probably won't be able to use it a second time. Don't be brave, just point out the direction and I'll kill you..."

"Again! My badge is vibrating!"

Rhodes turned around quickly, and sure enough, he saw another evil spirit, and he rushed forward with a stride.

The evil spirit was enraged in an instant, and rushed down toward the Rhodes, the spiritual energy gap and soul flaws in his body became bigger.

These evil spirits seem to have inherent defects, which will be magnified when provoked.

Rhodes hardly needs to aim.

And with his current psychic power, the spiritual gun would be fully charged in less than a second.

boom!
The spirit sealing bullet instantly hit the evil spirit.

Its whole body was shaken, as if a bomb had exploded inside the skin drum, its spiritual energy was torn apart, its spirit body trembled and fell from the sky.

Rhodes concentrated again, and it took only three seconds for the sickle-shaped emblem to be filled with psionic energy. The phosgene transpired transparent right hand slammed into the evil spirit, pinching its soul string.

With a single draw, the entire evil spirit would be torn to pieces.

【Soul of the Raging Evil Spirit】

Spiritless Soul +17
This is also the benefit of using "Soul Crit", which seems to be the reason for tearing up the entire spirit body, and he can directly obtain some spiritless souls.

The harvest is good, the key is that the skin is thin and the stuffing is big, and the hunting is easy.

Rhodes was overjoyed. Even if he couldn't find a powerful soul, hunting hundreds of such evil spirits was enough to make [Soul Firewood].

Hei Yu came up with a dull expression.

"Why is your gun so strong?"

Rhodes smiled and said, "Because my bullets are unusual."

"How many times can you use your soul attack?"

"Hmm... about fifty times. It seems that the strength of the monster's soul is different, and the psionic energy consumed is also different. The soul of the evil spirit is too brittle, like paper."

Heiyu's eyes bulged out.

"Who the hell said you were fragile? Huh?"
