the last king of darkness

Chapter 204 May Heroes Be Immortal

It took a long time before Rhodes' consciousness returned from the chaos.

The last picture still remains in my mind, but in front of me is a completely strange room.

"Where is this...?"

Rhodes lowered his head and looked at his hands.

The skin is delicate and crystal clear, like a newborn baby, without dust, blood, or wounds,
The terrifying sense of tearing in the soul no longer exists, but the psionic energy is exhausted, not a single drop.

[Bitter Blue] is slowly recovering spiritual energy, and a cool breath spreads in the soul.

Of course, with his current depth of psychic power, the amount of recovery of [Broken Blue] is no longer enough.

There is no doubt that the Resurrection Stone has been activated and he has been resurrected.

This is a newborn him.

The task has been completed, the sequelae of [Awakening] completely disappeared, and everything is as he expected.

Just, where is this place?
Rhodes stood up and looked around the room.

Simple, bright, and clean, full of combatant vibes.

This style should be a room in the hidden base.

"Didn't I set the resurrection point in my private house? This isn't my room either?"

Rhodes walked out the door and saw Mina, the young lady of the research institute at a glance.

She was half-kneeling on the ground and drawing something, and her high white coat made her posture unsightly.

Rhodes raised his hand and said hello: "Hi, Mina, long time no see."

Mina turned her head, and the moment she saw Rhodes, her beautiful face quickly turned red, and the red glow spread along her fair skin to her collarbone on her chest.

"how……"

Snapped!
A clipboard was thrown and hit him in the abs.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Harsh screams immediately resounded through the research area of ​​the hidden base.

-

When Rhodes sat in the office of the secret base with a bruised nose and a swollen face, he looked a little unhappy.

Isn't it just a rush, as for such a big reaction?
Vera and Sauron, who had just returned from the war zone, looked at Rhodes seriously.

"Aren't you being questioned by the investigation team? Why did you appear in the restricted area?"

Rhodes snorted and didn't want to speak.

These two guys obviously didn't know that he was going on a mission.

Sauron's face turned dark all of a sudden, he slammed the table and stood up, shouting angrily: "Do you know what you are doing? Trespassing in the restricted area, naked to molest the female researcher, is enough for you to go to the dungeon and be locked up for three years Already!"

Mina, who had been secretly applying eye drops, immediately raised her head and whispered, "This... Instructor Sauron, Little Rhodes didn't mean it, did he?"

Sauron glanced at her dissatisfied, can't you cooperate with me to scare this kid?
Dean Vera coughed heavily, and asked, "Little Rhodes, what's going on? Tell me."

Rhode didn't know what was going on, and he didn't know what he could say and what he couldn't say, so he hesitated for a while and replied, "Your Excellency, please go and inform the Supreme War Department that I'm here, and I won't do anything else." clear."

Vera nodded.

It was the Supreme War Department that took him away before, maybe some accident happened, and it was the best choice to inform them.

Unexpectedly, this was like poking a hornet's nest, a group of hearses flew down from the upper city, and a large number of people in red military uniforms rushed into the secret base.

The leader is the First Commander Herman.

As soon as he saw Rhodes, he rushed up and hugged him tightly.

"Live!"

he announced loudly.

Cheers immediately resounded through the base.

Everyone rushes up to him, hugs him, shakes his hand, or just touches him.

For a while, Rhodes was made into dumplings, and Vera and the others were pushed aside.

He grabbed someone and asked, "What's going on?"

The man smiled all over his face: "Dean Vera, congratulations on teaching a good student!"

Under his explanation, Vera and others knew what happened.

The ecstasy suddenly rose from the bottom of my heart. Vera was so excited that she couldn't restrain herself. Tears streamed down her face for a while, and she murmured: "President, have you seen it? Have you seen it? Little Rhodes is a hero, he saved us."

Sauron and Mina were also extremely happy, but the former's joy was mixed with pride, while the latter's joy was mixed with regret.

Rhodes was quickly surrounded and taken away, leaving only one person here to understand the situation.

"So, you just saw him coming out of the restricted area?" the man asked.

Mina nodded slightly.

"He's wearing nothing?"

Mina blushed slightly, but still nodded.

"Describe his characteristics in detail."

Mina asked, "Do you need it?"

"Of course!" The man said seriously, "This is a very important matter, please cooperate with our investigation."

"Okay, okay, this one looks like this..."

Snapped!
Everyone covered their faces.

"Miss Mina, I'm asking about physical characteristics! Physical characteristics!"

Mina's entire face was red to the neck, and she whispered, "Why didn't you make it clear..."

The investigation ended quickly, and nothing abnormal happened, except that there was one thing missing in the sealed room. It was an unknown item seized by the conquest legion from a certain ruin. Because it didn't know what it was useful for, it was handed over to the Industrial Machinery Research Institute for identification. .

Mina put it in the restricted area according to the regulations.

"Huh? Why is it missing?"

Several people searched the closed area but couldn't find it.

"Miss Mina, do you remember what that is?"

Mina hesitated and said, "It's a silver ball, the size of a fist. It may be a creation of the second era. Its purpose is unknown."

The man sighed: "It should have nothing to do with little Rhodes, he is naked, it is impossible to hide things."

Mina hesitated for a moment, trying to say that there was a place to hide, but her lips twitched and she closed her mouth.

Vera nodded and said: "It may have been lost, or it may have been stolen by someone. We will definitely investigate seriously and thoroughly find out the truth."

The man nodded casually, not paying attention to it.

-

In the main hall of the Supreme War Department, Rhodes received an unprecedented welcome.

Not only the Chief of Defense of the Military and War Department, but also the king's special envoy, the elders of the Supreme Council, the bishop of the Holy Church, and the consul of the Government Affairs Office were all present.

Under the eyes of everyone, Rhodes recounted the incident in detail, only changing a few details related to the dream.

As for the unexplainable things, Rhodes uniformly used "I don't know" and "maybe it's a magic spell left by the chief dean" as an excuse.

This trick has been tried and tested time and again, and everyone has a high tolerance for the miracles that the headmaster can create.

After the speech, everyone at the scene mourned for a quarter of an hour for Tommen and Dmitry, who died.

First Defense Chief Lin said in a deep voice: "Molly, double the pensions of these two victims, allow their immediate family members to live in the upper city, and give their children a decent job."

A female dispatcher with an indifferent expression said: "Your Excellency Dalin, Dmitri's only son has died in the battle at the Giant Stone Lighthouse. Tommen's parents have passed away long ago, and they have no relatives."

The first commander, Herman, said loudly: "Impossible, Tommen has been talking about his pension, how could he have no relatives?"

Gao Leng's female dispatcher said: "When we were preparing to carry out the pension work, we discovered that the information of Toman's family members registered in the Military and War Department was wrong. His so-called daughter was just the name of a dog. It was the name of a dog he died three years ago. Bought by the Order, it was a wrong revived species with nine tails."

An unspeakable silence circulated in the hall.

Dalin was stunned for a long time before sighing: "Engrave their names on the Trorian Monument, may the heroes live forever."

Everyone said in unison: "May the fire last forever, may the heroes be immortal, may the torch be passed on from generation to generation, the spirit will continue, and mankind will never die."

Rhodes chanted with them in a low voice, as if an invisible thing rose up in his spirit.

It swelled like a balloon, burning his soul.
