the last king of darkness

Chapter 278 We will all be redeemed

Chapter 278 We will all be redeemed
Horus was very happy.

As the third person in Trorian, the Archbishop of the Holy Church, he hadn't smiled this much for a long time.

Ever since the structure of the holy fire source showed signs of collapse, dark clouds had been hanging over his head, and the heavy pressure made him unable to laugh at all.

But now, from the moment he opened his eyes, there was a smile on his face unconsciously.

Everyone felt that their archbishop, who was like a dead wood, seemed to have sprouted and ushered in a second spring.

And all of this is because of Rhodes.

The victory of Fanxing Town has thoroughly proved that the expansion is feasible and sustainable. The expedition team led by Rhodes, with the smallest effort, has obtained gains that no one can imagine.

The initial expenditure of Wangcheng was only a battle group of 100 people and supplies for 100 people.

Super-large true silver veins, extremely precious solar crystal mines, an extremely fertile land after purification, and a larger living space, any of these gains are countless times more than the total expenditure.

The real silver mines greatly enriched the supplies of the royal city, and many warriors were able to wear armor and weapons containing real silver.

The Sun Crystal Mine even alleviated the huge gap in Wangcheng. Every day, more than 30 people were able to hold a psionic level-up ceremony because of the Sun Crystal Mine mined in Fanxing Town.

30 people may not seem like a lot, but there are more than 1 people in one year.

This increase in combat power cannot be underestimated.

And food is the cornerstone of everything.

Many lands are not suitable for planting even after purification, and the life breath of the holy white tree can only be effective on more fertile land.

The current food production in Trorian is actually not enough to support the consumption of the population, and it can only be supported by the previous inventory.

Not only can crops be grown in Ghost Spirit Lake, but mussels can also be cultivated in the lake. It is estimated that the food production is not ordinary.

But the new living space is their most important gain.

The royal city is too crowded. Too much filth and sin have been bred in the overcrowded slums. The extremely harsh living conditions have made this place a hotbed of doomsday cults, and the rampant chaos has plagued everyone in the royal city.

Since Fanxing Town was ignited, a large number of poor people have been taken in and new jobs have been found for them.

With income, they not only have food, water, houses, but also dignity.

The pastors of Fanxing Town described it in their report to the Holy Church:
"...All of them have regained the belief in fire. They use their hands to get rewards and happiness, and know that every drop of their sweat is valuable, and they have contributed to Wangcheng's victory over darkness."

And for people living in this dark world, nothing is more important than faith.

It is the blood that flows in the body, the spirituality that permeates the soul, and is more precious than all rare materials.

The reason why Trorian has been able to survive in such a desperate environment is because there are always a group of people who insist on this idiotic belief.

If you lose your faith, the last human kingdom will collapse.

And what happened in Fanxing Town also sounded the alarm for Wangcheng.

For the first time, the Supreme Council discovered that so many people had lost their belief in fire and degenerated into maggots willing to roll in the hotbed.

Rhodes fought for mankind under such harsh conditions, yet so many people stabbed him in the back. If anything went wrong, the expedition team would have already been wiped out.

Trorian, who suffered heavy losses in the black tide and abnormal celestial phenomena, had just recovered a little, and then took a sharp turn for the worse.

Even if Wangcheng dispatched high-level combat power to recover Fanxing Town, the blow to faith could not be recovered, and another new human star fell before it could shine.

What a sad loss.

They did not hesitate to start.

In fact, Fanxing Town has reported abnormal situations to the Supreme Council more than once, but First Elder Amondo always believed that this was Rhodes' intentional trick and did not take it seriously.

After many reports, only ordinary self-examination was carried out.

But I didn't expect that someone really broke through the limit. They not only destroyed Fanxing Town secretly, but even directly attacked it.

This is no different from doomsday believers.

During the investigation, the furious Armando found out that the report presented to him had been specially revised, and every detail implied that Rhodes was a liar who was full of lies, swindled for fame, and was very successful.

If Trorian is likened to a ship sailing on the dark sea, its helmsman is the First Elder.

It is an extremely dangerous signal that the person at the helm has been misled.

For many years, Amando, who had never been so angry, immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the incident.

At the same time, his position has begun to lean towards the king.

This is a very simple logic.

What the Doomsday Cult was so afraid of and tried so hard to prevent must be very beneficial to Trorian.

The "Book of Destined Death" is a semi-divine tool. It has many functions, the most important of which is to predict the future of fate. The doomsday believers who own it may have seen some clues.

Another reason that made Amondo change his position was the White Tower. "White Robe King" Meredith and "Calamity" Iyeta also gave positive predictions.

Therefore, Armando delegated a large amount of authority to Horus without hesitation, and immediately cleaned up the royal city.

However, despite changing his position, Armando did not immediately agree to Wang's new bill and further expansion plans.

It is a very cautious thing to turn the bow of the big ship Trorian.

Rhodes had to clear all the surrounding areas of Fanxing Town and establish an effective defense system before he and the elders would approve the king's plan.

And this is why Horus is so happy.

Amando didn't say it clearly, but Horus knew that the First Elder was ready to turn around.

For the first time, the archbishop's order was unimpeded in the royal city, and his restraints disappeared overnight. The opponents were collectively silent, and the adjudicators, judges, and clerics searched the royal city from house to house.

Although they hid it well and destroyed a lot of clues and evidence, it was nothing more than delaying time.

Before long, he will uproot and uproot all those who have lost their belief in fire and sabotaged the expedition to Starry Town.

Horus had never been so high-spirited.

And all these changes were brought about by that little guy who was once unpopular.

The only reason he was chosen to carry out the Holy Fire Project was because of the last Theodore's soul message.

Horus was extremely moved.

He looked at the holy fire sacrificial site in the distance, the towering red building covered everything, but he knew that the movement of the holy fire was still going on, and the turmoil in the sea of ​​origin was unprecedented.

However, he was no longer anxious, because the dawn of victory had appeared, and bright hope filled his heart.

As the spiritual leader of Trorian, Horus felt for the first time that he had been saved.

Just one last step.

he thinks.

As long as the little guy quickly clears up the Blackwater Swamp and the ruins of Ishorn, the most difficult first step of the holy fire plan has been taken.

If the Holy Fire Project is successful, not only will the greatest crisis in Trorian's history be resolved, but the Holy Fire will become even stronger.

The Holy Grail of Fire, which is directly connected to the power of the holy fire, is also stronger, and the trial of fire will therefore ignite more souls, and give more power to the ignited souls, so that more people can become fire bearers.

The fire bearers are the main force against the darkness. Only more and stronger fire bearers can resist the invasion of the black mist and make it possible for Trorian to continue the fire and civilization in this dark world. .

and even win the final victory.

Hurry up, hurry up.

For the first time, Horus felt such urgency in his heart.

King, please wake up quickly, Trorian needs your authority.

Only you can completely resist this situation and put an end to all instabilities and variables.

In Fanxing Town, more and more people are dissatisfied with Rhodes.

In their view, this new star with leadership potential should continue to lead them to advance triumphantly, continue to sweep the surrounding area, occupy the complete Fanxing Town, and create a large new human stronghold.

Instead of obsessing over the opposite sex.

The most dissatisfied of all was Molly.

She reminded Rhodes many times, asking him to focus on affairs. As long as he becomes stronger and wins more victories, Wangcheng can provide him with everything he wants.

However, Rhodes didn't seem to really take it to heart.

Molly never saw Rhodes meditate, nor did he practice psionic power, practice fire ability, or practice to ignite fire.

Of course, different personal aptitudes have different training methods. It is understandable that Rhodes is from a secret branch and is good at breaking through in battle.

But in daily life, he doesn't manage the affairs of Fanxing Town very much.

It would be fine if Rhodes didn't have the talent in this area. Molly could act as an agent for everything. That's why she traveled with the expedition team. This was her essential job.

But he obviously does.

It is no exaggeration to say that [-]% of everything in Fanxing Town is brought by him. Molly thinks that she just did some trivial work, while Rhodes is the real all-round leader with great wisdom.

But this leader, after solving the biggest crisis in Fanxing Town and winning an excellent situation for Fanxing Town, is actually obsessed with currying favor with that unknown person.

Molly came to him many times to report on work and discuss further development plans, but he was always absent-minded, and even the attraction of black silk to him was reduced, and each time he touched it a few times and then withdrew.

What's worse, just now, he actually transferred 800 million silver ropes and gave them to the unknown person.

But to himself sitting next to him, he didn't even extend his hand.

There are more and more signs that Rhodes is likely to be confused by that woman.

As a senior dispatcher of the General Army War Department, Molly has often dealt with the Silver Pledge and the Forbidden Armed Forces many times. She knows very well that Mephis is a freak with three forbidden characteristics.

One of those traits is mind control.

Molly invited priests and soul masters stationed in the new church in Fanxing Town, but none of them found any trace of Rhodes' control.

His soul is as clear as crystal, not even a trace of pollution can be seen.

It is said that this is a miracle brought about by the black rice bucket, which can swallow filth and infection and prevent the soul from corrupting.

The priest of the church in Fanxing Town told her that Rhode's mental resistance is extremely high, and it is almost impossible to be affected by external forces.

Then.

Now there is only one possibility left.

Molly made up her mind instantly.
