the last king of darkness

Chapter 182 Ancestors
The old city of Baira is one of the important strongholds in the Ironclad Fortress theater. There are more than [-] strongholds related to it. Together, they form a defensive system that firmly guards the southwest of the Trorian defense circle.

But now, this defense system is on the verge of collapse.

A large number of outlying strongholds fell, and various lines were cut off. If it continues, the old city of Baila will soon become an isolated city.

Isolated cities are not of much value in the defense system.

Monsters will leak from farther away, and the main force of the city defense cannot go too far from the city and go deep into the darkness to intercept them.

Fighting at home is the basic rule for all humans and monsters [war].

The home field of human beings is fire, and the home field of monsters is black mist.

Where there is fire taking root, it is a stronghold, and human beings can only rely on strongholds to fight, otherwise, the casualties will exceed the limit of tolerance.

Therefore, what Rhodes has to do now is to fully assist the old city of Baira in recovering the stronghold and rebuilding the stronghold defense system.

After igniting [Spiritual Elegy], Rhodes deeply experienced the changes brought about by the surge in spiritual energy, such as sprinting. He could only jump 7 yards once he landed on his toes, but now he can jump 20 yards, which is more than doubled. .

No wonder he was like a baby in Teresa's eyes.

In the eyes of the chief dean, he is probably just a cell.

After Rhodes ran for a while, the "chief dean" in his mind lit up, which meant that his modification of the [Eternal Statue] had been completed and everything was ready.

it is good!
Let the chief dean's last light shine brighter!

Rhodes immediately summoned Theodore's spirit and entered a possessed state.

That dark feeling reappeared, he was still Rhodes, but instinctively he had become Theodore.

As soon as Rhodes raised his hand, a light flashed on the staff, and his figure suddenly rose into the air and went away through the air.

【Wind Art】

The incantations that can only be mastered by Huahuo's incantation talent are also referred to as level 5 incantations.

The wind blew past his ears, and Rhodes' speed exceeded 300 yards in the blink of an eye. He didn't know the direction, and he knew the entire Iron Armored Fortress battle zone like the palm of his hand, and every stronghold was clear.

Looking down, there are wandering monsters everywhere on the dark land, and in the vast black mist, there are more monsters coming from afar.

The light of humanity is like a solitary lamp in the vast and dark wasteland. The howling wind makes people worry about how long this fragile flame can last.

But as long as there is one person alive, hope will never die.

The torch of human beings will surely be passed on from generation to generation.

Soon, Rhodes saw a light.

-

"Medium firepower, attack!"

The third-level commander Mallister shouted violently.

boom!
On the fortress, seven magma balls shot away and crashed into the crowd of monsters.

The scattered magma scorched dozens of bloodthirsty beasts, but more bloodthirsty beasts rushed up and rushed towards the soldiers below the fortress.

The soldiers fought with all their strength, but they still couldn't resist the impact of the monster.

"Rear position firepower, support!"

The third-level commander Mallister shouted loudly.

A large number of giant arrows, psychic cannons, and impact missiles flew towards the monster group.

More bloodthirsty beasts fell, but the situation was still not getting better.

"Reserve team, support the front row!"

The third-level commander Mallister shouted.

Dozens of combatants jumped from the fort and joined the fray.

But the pressure on the front row didn't get much relief.

The Bloodthirsty Beast is a very troublesome monster, with rough skin and thick flesh, fast attack, strong combat power, and highly poisonous, many soldiers were poisoned, but the special antidote has long been used up.

As more bloodthirsty beasts poured into the battlefield, Mallister's face darkened visible to the naked eye.

The Iron Sword Fortress is a third-level stronghold, with a guardian fire that can illuminate a range of 32 yards and two spiritual energy generators. There are [-] combatants and [-] non-combatants stationed in the fortress. There are also two spirits on the fortress. Cannon and [-] heavy bed crossbows.

It can be said to be impenetrable.

But now, it too is in a desperate situation.

The power of the psychic generator has been exhausted, the range of the guardian fire has been reduced by more than half, the psychic cannon has been destroyed, and only half of the 32 heavy bed crossbows can be used.

And the monsters are still endless.

Commander Mallister's face was livid, and the battle situation was already on the verge of collapse. If the monster could not be stopped, the fortress without the protection of the psionic generator would be destroyed.

Once the fire goes out, it's all over.

"Medium firepower, support!"

A combatant shouted hoarsely, "Commander, we have not recovered."

Commander Mallister yells: "Bedbow!"

"Commander, we have no heavy arrows!"

Mallister's face darkened in an instant. As a qualified commander, he immediately judged that this stronghold could not be defended.

Now arrangements for retreat must be made.

However, the Iron Sword Fortress is a key node. Once it falls, the entire line will collapse, and all efforts will be in vain.

With this hesitation, another team in the front row was overwhelmed, and the teammates next to them tried their best to rescue them.

When these fighters were sent to the fortress, their bodies were already shattered and bleeding profusely. The logistics staff desperately tried to stop the bleeding, but the toxin inhibited the effects of all recovery medicines and spread to the inside of the body.

Mallister suddenly felt sad, and shouted: "Reinforcement, reinforcement? Grandma, grandpa, ancestor, please, come quickly..."

"Commander!" Suddenly, a person shouted: "Someone is coming!"

Mallister followed his gaze, and saw a red figure flying towards them in the distance.

This is definitely human, monsters don't wear red tearstones.

However, he is only one person.

Mallister cursed: "His grandma's ancestor, just one... just one, bring it to your grandson!"

After a few seconds, the man flew up to the fort and landed beside the commander.

"Merry."

he said gently.

"Let the front row all retreat."

Mallister was furious instantly: "Who do you fight? I'm the commander. If the fortress is withdrawn from the front row, it will fall. Hurry up and report your characteristics and level to me. I will arrange..."

Rhode touched his chest and smiled gently: "Merry, your temper is still so irritable, this is the reason why you didn't get full marks in the command class, let them come up, I'm about to open the Dragon Wall. "

"Dragon Fang Strong Wall!"

Everyone on the fort suddenly screamed.

The middle and rear long-range combatants who were recovering, the non-combatants who were busy going back and forth, and the wounded who were injured but not unconscious, all cast their gazes over.

Mallister could hardly believe his ears.

"Dragon Tooth Strong Wall is a level 8 spell, are you a spell master?"

His eyes immediately fell on Rhodes' young and even childish face.

"You fart! If you know the dragon's teeth, I will recognize you as a grandfather now..."

Rhodes ignored him, a light flashed on the staff, and he made the same voice as Mallister.

"Front row combatants, retreat back to the fort in an orderly manner, long-range combatants, cover them."

Mallister was furious: "What are you doing, are you the end..."

Halfway through speaking, he suddenly choked up, because he found that the robe Rhodes was wearing was the top-notch spell robe, the style was exactly the same as that of Chief Dean Theodore, but the size was much smaller.

Such top-notch spiritual equipment is undoubtedly only available to masters of spells.

"Shit!"

He cursed, jumped off the fort without looking back, rushed into the front line, and assisted the soldiers in retreating.

Soon, the soldiers withdrew to the fort.

Rhodes yelled, put his staff down with both hands, and a circle of blue light fell from the sky like a steel gate, and several bloodthirsty beasts approaching were even cut in half by the blue light.

The blue light covers the fortress like an iron barrel. This is a strategic level spell. The "Dragon Fang Strong Wall" can last at least four hours. Monsters below the strong level will never be able to break through. This is the suppression of ranks. It doesn't matter how much you come.

The next moment, cheers like a wave flooded the stronghold, and the "Dragon's Teeth Strong Wall" gave them precious time to repair, which was simply too important.

Mallister ran up and shouted, "Grandpa, are you the magic guard? Is Your Excellency Theodore safe now?"

Rhodes ignored him, clenched a fist with one hand and placed it on his forehead.

Mallister's heart beat wildly.

He recognized it, but he couldn't believe it.

The next moment, Rhodes opened his fist, and the golden light flooded the fortress.

Everyone's injuries recovered quickly, the toxins quickly reduced, and the corruption and pollution quickly disappeared.

【Sun Healing】

Another ninth-level spell!
For a moment, Mallister almost thought he was dreaming.

The golden light gradually faded and disappeared into countless light clusters. The Iron Sword Fortress had never been so quiet. No one made a sound, quietly tasting the taste of hope and light.

After a long time, Mallister came up and asked seriously.

"Ancestor, can you tell me your name? I want to write it on the tablet and pass it on as a family heirloom."
