the last king of darkness

Chapter 123 Forbidden Words
Black crystals are a type of spiritual items that can store more spiritual energy, and are generally used as energy sources for various instruments, instruments, or rituals.

It has many advantages, but the only disadvantage is that it is not easy to preserve, the spirituality of its internal structure will be lost over time, and eventually become ordinary crystal.

But this is not a problem for Rhodes at all.

The dream world itself has a strong preservation effect, and the storage place under the stone platform can be regarded as a time stop, and all materials can be preserved as if they were just put in.

Rhodes sighed slightly.

Forget it, anyway, it's going to be reimbursed. Wang Cheng's family has a big business, so they shouldn't be stingy with the money, right?

"I have."

Mina asked, "How many?"

"About a hundred."

Steel Hand hesitated for a moment: "Are your sleeves that big?"

Rhodes glanced at him: "Can't I have luggage?"

Mina was in a hurry: "The black crystal needs special preservation. You put it in your clothes, and its spirituality will be lost in a few days! Take it out!"

Rhodes snorted: "How do you know that my clothes are ordinary clothes? Why can't I wear high-end clothes? Clothes with preservation effect?"

Turn around and leave, leaving everyone looking at each other in blank dismay.

"And this kind of clothes?"

-

After a while, Rhodes returned to the basement with his luggage.

Mina rushed forward, snatched the luggage from his hand, and opened it for a look.

A pile of black crystals is wrapped in clothes!

She took out one, put it in her hand and looked at it, her big eyes were full of unbelievable surprise.

"It's, it's like new, and some of it's full of energy!"

She immediately shifted her gaze to Rhodes' clothes.

"Aren't you ordinary clothes?"

Mina took out a pair of underwear and observed repeatedly, but found nothing unusual.

Rhodes pulled it back: "Once you smell it, the effect is gone."

Mina's willow eyebrows immediately raised: "What do you mean?"

A support worker yelled: "Mina! Put it in here quickly! The power of the full-powered black crystal goes fast!"

Mina just woke up like a dream, and quickly transferred the black crystal to a special storage box with her assistant.

Then, she gently wiped it with her finger, and some translucent substance remained on the surface of the preservation box, wrapping it up.

"This is my spirituality. As long as I stay here, this batch of black crystals can be preserved for more than fifteen days."

fifteen days.

In any case, the supplies of the giant's fortress were also delivered.

Everyone in the basement let out a long breath, and Steel Hand was so excited that he couldn't speak: "Brother Rhodes, I really don't know how to thank you..."

Humanity +51.
Well, your thanks have arrived.

Rhodes smiled, but immediately stopped smiling, and said seriously: "The money still has to be paid."

Steel Hand said repeatedly: "Of course!"

Mina grumbled: "Money, money, money."

Rhodes glanced at her: "What do I want if I don't want money? Want you? Will you give it?"

Humanity +1
"No! Go back to your daydreams!"

-

With sufficient energy in the psionic generator, the subsequent battle became smoother - they didn't have to face harsh conditions to forcefully leave the fortress to fight.

Just guard the sword gate, and follow the established tactics to eliminate the most threatening monsters one by one.

The terrain of Jianguan is really good. On both sides are dead mountains with no peaks. Generally, monsters will not touch those dead things that have been silent for countless years in the black mist.

Only a very small number of monsters will cross the dead mountain, but generally they will not rush to Jianguan from the top of the mountain.

As long as there are no flyers, most monsters pose little threat to the fighters on the city wall.

Under reasonable tactical arrangements, the situation has temporarily stabilized.

Combatants take turns fighting on the city walls, and logistics personnel are responsible for taking care of the wounded, cleaning the battlefield and other activities.

Mina tends the psionic generator in the basement.

Moore stood in front of the guardian fire, added phlogiston according to the situation, adjusted the fire, and managed the personnel who came to the fire to recover their spiritual power.

Steel Hand and his lieutenants took turns guarding the command room to direct the battle, regularly reporting news to their superior, Liguang Fortress, and asking for supplies from the Giant Fortress at the same time.

They usually use the spirit crow messenger to send messages. Psychic communication cannot pass through the black mist and can only be used locally.

Other than that, it is the oldest and most traditional method—the messenger.

But unless it is the most important letter, no courier will arrive.

Liguang Fortress seldom replied to letters, but every few days it would send a piece of theater information.

Steel Hand and others learned from this information that part of the front of the Kuroshio swept across the outer line of defense, causing great pressure.

Wangcheng has fully mobilized the battle groups in all districts, formed a battle group, defended the core area and supported the front line.

The defense pressure in the seventh defense area is very high. The guardian Jon admitted that Liguang Fortress encountered great difficulties. They were forced to attract more monsters to reduce the pressure on Liguang Fortress. At the same time, they asked everyone to do their best Persevere, don't let the threat slip past the line of defense.

The information from Liguang Fortress made Steel Hand feel worried and proud at the same time.

The worry is that the overall situation is not good, and the pride is that the situation in Jianguan is stable.

But he also knew that this was all thanks to the reinforcement team from Wangcheng.

The strength of this team has repeatedly exceeded his expectations. The fire guardian Moll among them is simply the person who knows monsters best. He always adds the most suitable phlogiston to the fire at the most suitable time. Monsters deal the most accurate kills.

Efficiency is their only evaluation of him.

And Moonlight Bach became the core of their defense.

When the mighty Moonbowman stands on the walls, nothing can threaten those on the walls.

Dark Leaf is also a very strong short-range fighter, both offensive and defensive, flexible and fast. Whenever a flyer falls into the wall, he will be at the forefront to fight the monster, which greatly reduces the pressure on other personnel.

In addition, there are excellent close-range combatants such as Beowuld, Raistlin, and Annabelle, top field controllers such as Iger, excellent healers such as Caramon, etc., etc.

Of course, the most unusual among them is Rhodes.

This guy's data on paper seems to be extremely low, and his several Tinder names seem ridiculous, but he is actually the most unexpected and elusive guy.

In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the personnel, Steel Hand stipulates that the continuous fighting time of each combatant shall not exceed six hours.

But generally speaking, most people can't last that long, and they will come down in about four hours, and recover from meditation in the fire protection sacrificial ground.

And this guy can't wait to stay on the city wall for sixteen hours a day, and the real silver bullets and thunder stones are still mad like they don't want money.

The most outrageous thing is that there is no such material stored in Jianguan, but he always uses it endlessly, and he doesn't know where it came from.

But just ask him, "You don't understand", "Did you see it?" "Is it strange that people with tinder abilities have some strange abilities?" "I spend my own money!"

Originally, this guy was somewhat restrained, until one day, regular supplies from the giant fortress were sent to Jianguan.

Among them were many real silver bullets and lightning stones.

He immediately and unceremoniously took it all for himself, declaring that it was all reimbursed to him.

Steel Hand tried to explain that this was a supplementary material, not to mention that there was no such item for reimbursement, and it would not be sent at this time.

"Then treat it as a reimbursement! If anyone refuses to accept it, he will compete with me for a handjob. If he wins, I will give it all to him."

After leaving this sentence, he moved all the things into his room.

The only one here who is better at handgunning than him is Mina, but she stays in the basement and won't argue with Rhodes.

These are naturally his.

Everyone didn't really care about it, and he was the only one who could exert their effects most efficiently.

Anyway, this guy sleeps on the city wall almost every day, and he can't pull it off. If he pulls it hard, he will say: "Do you know what grass is?"

The fire of "grass" is indeed very strong, making everyone drool with envy.

Only after using the psychic cannon, Rhodes would go down the city wall to rest.

Everyone had reserved the location of the Huo Huo Sacrifice for him, but he actually went back to his room to sleep.

His explanation for this is: "I don't like having a man around me when I close my eyes."

This kind of flirtatious speech made everyone very speechless. Even if Steel Hands gathered nine female fighters to accompany him to meditate and recover, and there was a man named Moll, the fire guardian, in the fire protection sacrificial ground, it was impossible for him left.

Therefore, everyone had no choice but to reluctantly accept his kindness.

But what everyone didn't know was that this was Rhode's choice after precise calculation.

The monsters didn't crowd in front of the sword pass like a tide for them to slaughter, they came in groups, each group had about [-] to [-] people, and the intervals were variable, sometimes very short, sometimes slightly longer.

Most of the monsters that come to Jianguan are unlevel, that is, unformed forms.

There are not many level monsters.

There are even fewer above the grade.

Except for very few cases, after firing [Psionic Quartet], most of the monsters were turned into fly ash, and the cleaning efficiency became lower, so there was no need to forcefully use [Awakening].

Efficiency is the most important thing.

Although there are a lot of real silver bullets and thunder stones in reserve, they are not unlimited.

During this period of time, Rhodes could obtain an average of about [-] spiritless souls every day, and if he used [Psionic Quartet], it could reach more than [-].

This efficiency has exploded.

This trip was simply the most correct choice for him, and joining the secret branch was the most important step in his life.

Here, he has grown by leaps and bounds.

Rhodes finally understood why he looked so weak before.

Because he was already weak.

Looking back now, it was just a daydream when I tried to defeat the dream invaders with the Spirit Spear and Lightning Stone.

Here, Rhodes' soul strength is growing every day.

But most people didn't notice it, and it was difficult for Lingqiang and Leishi to show this change.

Only when he used [Psionic Quartet], several stronger combatants such as Dark Leaf and Steel Hand noticed that his psionic power seemed to have become stronger.

In this regard, Rhodes' explanation is: "There is no way in this world. If you shoot more, the way will be familiar."

Although Dark Leaf and Steel Hand didn't know what this meant, it was always a good thing for the team members to become stronger.

The existence of Rhodes has greatly relieved the pressure on Jianguan defense, allowing more fighters to have more time to rest and recover, indirectly reducing the risk of injury, and eliminating the situation after long-term exhaustion due to injury and downsizing More erosive vicious circle.

Without this reinforcement team, the current situation would be unimaginable.

Steel Hands has made up his mind that after the war, they must report their achievements to the Supreme War Department, without missing a single word.

In this way, with everyone's efforts, the situation in Jianguan improved rapidly.

If nothing else happened, Jianguan could become the most outstanding stronghold of the seventh defense area in this black tide.

Everyone became optimistic, and the sound of laughter once again appeared in the fortress of Jianguan.

Team leader Heiyu is already planning his wedding, and after this battle, he plans to return to Wangcheng to propose to his fiancée.

For this reason, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep for several days. He kept describing the beautiful life of his dream to his teammates on the city wall, and sincerely invited his favorite little brother Rhodes to be their witness.

Rhodes frowned when he heard this.

what are you doing?

Is this forbidden language something you can say?
