the last king of darkness

Chapter 175 Rescue
Rhodes felt as if he had fallen into a furnace, and the magma rushed into his body, and his soul became extremely hot.

When he recovered from the hallucination, the skeleton in front of him had been shattered into slag.

And the back of his hand was engraved with intertwined lines.

Various patterns were stacked together, making it impossible for Rhodes to tell which part of the dream they belonged to.

This is a large piece of dream fragments!

Rhodes reacted instantly, and the joy rushed straight into his heart.

It had been a long time since he had found a fragment of a dream, and the possibility of finding a needle in a haystack was so slim that he almost gave up hope, and he never thought that a fragment could be dug up by digging the grave.

Dreamland will have a new function again.

Without hesitation, Rhode immediately entered the dreamland.

The moment he opened his eyes, what he saw were countless humanity and three flowers of humanity scattered under the obelisk.

And the moment his feet hit the ground, the back of his hand started to feel hot.

A star-shaped pattern lit up, and the lines that made it began to boil, and soon turned into a bright light that fell directly under the feet.

The next moment, a pure white marble floor appeared on the light-colored land, with the obelisk as the center, spreading all the way to the front of the hut, forming a circular square with a radius of about two hundred steps.

[Star Square], observe the trajectory of the stars, strengthen the obelisk, and resist the impact of the spirit world.

Rhodes smiled.

Not bad.

According to previous experience, if the obelisk is broken, he will most likely die directly, and the Stone of Resurrection will not be able to save him.

But that wasn't enough, he needed something more useful.

Rhode quickly walked towards the hut, and the regular heptagon on the back of his hand really lit up, turning into a cloud of mist and entering the room.

However, the hut has not changed, and there are still only three items: a stone platform, a bookshelf, and a rocking chair.

Rhode walked towards the bookshelf with some doubts. There were still only the Book of Knowledge and the Book of the Past on it. When he came to the stone platform and lit the candles on the stone platform, he realized what had changed.

There are many recipes in Shitai.

[Flesh Puppet]: Summon a flesh puppet to fight for you.

A wooden puppet is needed, a piece of living flesh.

[Flesh Armor]: Flesh covers the whole body, strengthens defense, resists attacks

Calles magic stone is needed, a piece of living flesh.

[Soul Defense]: Resist an injury that should have been fatal.

Requires 10000 Spiritless Souls, 100 Putrefaction (max specs).

[Kales Tongwen Heavy Cannon]: Artwork made by soul master Kalles can only be used once.

Requires ghost shell, sun crystal, 10000 spirituality.

[Pioneer of Destruction]: Cursed by destruction and burning, the inner potential of life is released, and superpowers are obtained until death.

Requires 80000 Spiritless Souls, 100 Blackfire Phlogiston (max spec), and 100 Putrefaction (max spec).

-

These five items are the five strongest items that Rhodes has obtained besides the [Resurrection Stone]. They are all things he needs very much now, and they can greatly make up for his shortcomings.

This [Kalles Tongwen Heavy Cannon] is very fierce when you hear it, there is nothing that a heavy cannon can't solve.

If so, try again.

[Pioneer of Destruction] is more suitable for him. At the critical moment, go down, kill monsters, and then resurrect.

Simply perfect!
[Soul Defense] and [Flesh Armor] are also very useful, they can protect him in times of crisis, and [Flesh Puppet] is a stronger summon than wooden puppet.

However, except for [Flesh Puppet], he lacks materials for all items.

I can only go to the medicine woman after I go back.

Rhodes sighed slightly, took out the piece of living flesh and blood from the storage, put a wooden puppet on it, and made a [Flesh Puppet] first, intending to test its strength.

The stone platform was completed soon, and a sarcomatous object appeared in front of my eyes.

It was only about the size of a little finger, and the flesh on it was wriggling like a meat worm, which was a little disgusting.

But Rhodes knew that as long as he input spiritual energy, this thing would become a puppet for him to fight.

I don't know how much stronger it will be than wooden puppets.

Rhodes left the hut and came to the soul altar.

The altar is full of souls, but most of them are very small, only one is a little bigger.

They are mainly low-level monsters hunted and killed when cleaning the sewers, and they have no role other than offering sacrifices and making [soul ashes].

As he approached the altar, a pupil-shaped pattern lit up on the back of his hand.

It boiled and turned into a cloud of black gas and flew to the altar.

When the black air dissipated, Rhodes found that all the souls above were gone.

Rhode's heart skipped a beat, but the next moment, he saw a crystal wall appear on the altar.

【Wall of Soul】

Possesses the ability to seal and preserve souls and objects from corruption, damage or erosion.

Using it on a living creature will kill it, and using it on a monster will seal it.

-

The crystal wall stood on the edge of the front of the altar, in a semi-arc shape, as high as two people, and all the souls flew into the wall.

With a light touch of Rhodes, their information appeared in his mind.

[Soul of Fog Demon] 1, [Soul of Cursed Man Wolf] 11, [Soul of Black Death Beast] 33, [Soul of Plague Rat] 593, [Soul of Maggot Man] 361, [Soul of Poisonous Insect] Soul] 111, [Weak Soul] 186, [Soul Shards] 577.

Not bad.

At least not in the future.

Rhodes tried the sealing ability brought by it, and found that he needed to keep in touch with the sealed object continuously, and the strange ice crystals would keep wrapping it until the target was completely sealed inside.

The speed is very slow, and the psionic energy is expensive.

Rhodes tried to seal a wooden puppet, and the sealed ice crystal formed was about the size of a thumb, and the spiritual energy consumed made him feel a little strenuous.

Should be useless.

Rhodes thought.

The sealing function is useless to me, the dream itself has a high preservation effect, and the effect of the storage place is even more powerful.

There is no need to seal monsters. Monsters that can be sealed by me can definitely be killed by me.

Then why should I seal it?Keep the cubs?
Rhodes left the altar with a little disappointment, and came to the last building - the evil ghost stone jar.

But there was no pattern about it on the back of the hand, and the evil spirit also shrank in the stone jar without showing its head.

It has been like this since it spit out the [Evil Ghost Stone] last time.

Rhodes left the stone jar and wandered in the dreamland.

But the new function has not been discovered yet, but a strange phenomenon was discovered. When he was walking into the depths of the dream, he suddenly found that he was walking towards the obelisk from the other side.

After several experiments, Rhodes was surprised to find that the dreamland actually had a boundary, centered on the obelisk, and its radius was only about [-] steps.

On the edge of the dream, you can see the endless fog, extending to infinity.

The dream seems to be floating above the fog, just a small independent space.

This made Rhodes feel very bad.

Things like dream invasions and reaching the "River of Immortality" seem understandable.

But now is not the time to think about it. Although there seems to be no threat in the tomb, it cannot stay for too long.

There is one last pattern on the back of Rhodes' hand. It is composed of complex lines and full of abstract metaphors. It is not clear what it is.

He trotted along the dream, eventually triggering it in a very remote location.

The pattern turned into a ball of white light and fell on the ground, and a large pure white square appeared at the foot. From the feedback information, Rhodes learned that it was called [Eternal Statue].

But there is nothing in the square, and no function is known.

Since then, the pattern on the back of the hand has all disappeared.

Study it later.

Rhodes is about to leave the dreamland.

He took a last look at the "Evil Egg", and its wound seemed to have healed, so Rhodes cut off another piece.

"Living flesh and blood" is a special spiritual material, and the size of one portion is fixed, and no matter how much it is, it is only one portion. Therefore, it is useless to cut too much, and it is not enough to cut too little.

In the past, Rhodes harvested casually, as long as there were a lot.

But now they are very careful and only cut off a standard portion size.

After all, "living flesh and blood" has now become a very important material, and the only output is "evil eggs". Of course, careful planning is required. If you cut too much, the recovery will be slow, which in a disguised way reduces the amount of it obtained.

Afterwards, Rhodes pinched his gestures, a sense of weightlessness appeared, and his eyes became blurred.

Rhodes closed his eyes, and when the weightlessness ended, he returned to the material world.

He has been back and forth countless times and is very proficient.

But this time something was different, the sense of weightlessness that should have ended in a few seconds continued, and he seemed to be falling into the abyss.

Rhodes opened his eyes immediately, and the surroundings were pitch black, empty and boundless.

All the same up and down.

He was literally falling into a dark abyss.

What's going on here?

Rhode's heart tightened for a moment.

Am I not in the grave?This is where?
He looked around, but even the eyes of the soul couldn't see the end.

An unspeakable fear welled up in my heart, is this a dark void?Shall I go straight down to the bottom of the abyss?

Suddenly, Rhodes saw a huge thing, it was an unprecedented giant hand, grabbing him from the dark depths that could not see the end.

What the hell!

The hairs all over Rhode's body stood on end, and without any hesitation, he directly activated [Spirit World Shuttle].

In an instant, countless pictures appeared in my mind.

Rhode didn't have time to take a closer look, so he clicked on a random place.

In an instant, his eyes flashed, his whole body soared into the sky, and countless piles of color blocks rushed toward his face.

When he came back to his senses, [Spirit World Shuttle] was over.

He finally landed on the ground, and the dizziness caused by the long-term weightlessness almost caused him to fall.

Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief, and finally settled down.

The experience just now was like a nightmare, as if he really fell into the abyss.

Fortunately, he woke up from the nightmare.

When I go back, I must find out what is going on with the teacher. If there is no [Spirit World Shuttle], his resurrection stone will be wasted.

Rhodes stood up and looked around.

In the thick black fog, rolling hills can be seen.

The place is a little strange.

Doesn't seem to be near the lighthouse area.

Rhodes didn't have an astrolabe, and he couldn't see the sun, stars, and moon in the black mist, so it was difficult to distinguish the direction.

However, most of the monsters wandering around here are black dead beasts with giant starfish-like growths on their heads, which proves that he should still be in the area of ​​Laisuo City.

Things aren't too bad.

Rhodes thought to himself, chose a direction at random, and walked away.

Anyway, he has the Stone of Resurrection and is not afraid of death.

About an hour later, Rhodes came to a mountain top and looked around. With the effect of the eye of the soul, he could see the scene within [-] yards.

This is a barren mountain area, and there is nothing nearby except for wandering black dead beasts.

After watching for a long time, when Rhodes was about to leave, he suddenly found a psychic light flashing in the southwest corner.

He immediately turned his eyes and concentrated his mind. The eyes of the soul penetrated the black mist and saw a group of people in the distance fighting desperately with the black death beast.

They looked very strong and could kill a black death beast with one blow, but they all seemed to have been seriously injured, unable to move, and their spiritual energy was weakened.

The number of black dead beasts far exceeded them, and they fought more and more. There were also seriously injured people in this group. They tried their best to protect him and tried to break out of the encirclement many times, but failed.

Rhodes immediately took out the wooden puppets and flesh puppets, prepared the thunder stones, loaded the spirit-sealing bullets, and rushed towards them.

There is nothing better than meeting your own kind in the dark.

When approaching them, Rhodes shouted: "Hold on! I'm here to save you!"

At the same time, he also saw the appearance of this group of people clearly.

It was a group of knights in silver-white armor, exactly the same as the zombie knight he had met before.

There were five people in total, and they were all bruised, their armor was damaged, and they were bleeding profusely.

Rhodes was very familiar with the person lying on the ground.

He was tall and tall, with a long silver beard tied into his belt. Although his eyes were tightly closed, Rhodes would never forget that familiar face.

The chief dean of Jinworth College, the longest-lived person in Trorian, the best and greatest magic talent holder in history.

Theodore.
