the last king of darkness

Chapter 297 Bringing Light
The wrinkles on Amento's face were squeezed together, like dried orange peel.

"Rod."

he asked sternly.

"What the hell is going on here? Why are there so many bizarre thefts? And the victims are all opponents who have offended you. Do you know how many people have come to me to sue? Saying that you hooked up with the doomsday believers, to dissidents Those who see it will retaliate!"

An elder shouted: "This kind of thing has never happened in the upper city. It is the core area of ​​the entire Trorian, and it is a place of light that everyone dreams of. How can such a vicious incident happen?"

Tallinas et al. are also here.

"That's right! That bastard must have done it!"

Tallinas's eyes were red and his face was distorted. He was filled with anger at the theft of his years of accumulation, and his secrets being flipped made him lose his mind.

"Kill him! Quick!"

Manolo Bana was also beside him. His face was livid, and the iron mask had long since disappeared. His exposed long face was black and smelly like a pit that hadn't been washed for 100 years.

Rhodes had never seen such an expression before, and he almost burst into laughter in his heart, and the depression accumulated in his heart dissipated a lot at once.

"This is a targeted retaliation attack!"

Manolobana's icy tone contained unprecedented intense anger. His loss was greater than that of Tallinas, and there were still many things that could not be made public.

But he still maintains a basic calmness, not as hysterical as Tarynas.

"He used his power to attack us based on his hatred for us."

"This kind of person is no different from a monster and must be executed immediately. The strength of Trorian lies in the overall structure and stable order. One or two people are not enough to affect the overall situation, but he is destroying our stability!"

"This is an intolerable crime, and no amount of merit can make it up!"

Many victims on the side also shouted in unison, demanding that Rhodes be deprived of all honor immediately and put in an underground prison.

When the hundred and ten people shouted, the momentum was also very astonishing.

But Rhodes was not afraid at all, and said with a smile: "Which eye of you saw me stealing? Why do you say I stole it?"

Talinas said angrily: "It must be you, definitely you, not you or who?"

Manolo Bana said coldly: "Search his mansion, there are so many things, he can't hide them flawlessly."

Rhodes sneered: "Why do you search my mansion?"

"Some things don't need evidence, your attitude of rejection is evidence."

"Oh? Then according to your words, you once refused my search, which proves that you are all doomsday believers?"

One shouted: "Is this the same thing? Can this be confused?"

Rhodes sneered and said, "Oh, my attitude is evidence, but your attitude is not? Dare to ask Lord Manolobana, what are you? Why are you so different?"

Manolobana was furious, clenched his fists, and his entire face was distorted.

Tallinas was even more furious, wishing to come up and beat up this guy who made him so disgusting.

Seeing that this logic was blocked, an elder whose family property was also stolen immediately changed the subject and shouted loudly.

"Rods! As the captain of the King's Hand, you should of course be responsible for the safety of the upper city. Now that such a big case has happened, do you dare to say that you are not guilty?"

Rhodes sneered: "Your Excellency, please repeat the duties of the King's Guard."

"Of course it is to guard the royal city..."

"Wrong, the Hand of the King belongs to the King's Guard, responsible for guarding the sacred fire sacrificial field and the palace, responsible for the king's guarding tasks, and accepting the king's assignment to complete the king's orders, so as to ensure that the king's authority is fully implemented."

Rhodes paused, and his voice became sharper.

"You don't even know the duties of the Hand of the King, how did you become an elder? Are you a doomsday cultist?"

The elder's entire face turned blue, and the crowd of opponents was even more silent.

The supporters around Wang cast admiring and reverent glances one after another, and even Wang looked at him with a little surprise in his eyes.

This kid is much smarter than he looks.

Armando's turbid eyeballs glanced at Rhodes a few times, a bright light flashed in his expression, but it was buried by the turbidity in an instant.

"The quarrel ends here. Wangcheng is talking about evidence. No one can be convicted based on speculation alone. The Internal Affairs Tribunal will use actual investigations to find the truth."

Tarynas said anxiously: "But, Sir Amando, isn't this obvious? The only victims are his enemies, and none of his accomplices have been stolen..."

"To shut up!"

Armando glanced over with cloudy eyes with chills.

"What kind of good do you think you are? You think we don't know about the little tricks you do on weekdays? It's not that you are useful. For the sake of the overall situation of Wangcheng, you guys have already been sent to the underground prison."

Rhodes smiled slightly: "Your Excellency Armando, they can indeed go in."

Armando's turbid eyes moved over, and there was surprise in the hazy eyeballs.

"Oh? What do you mean?"

With a flash of Rhodes' thought, the picture crystal in the dream appeared in the palm of his hand, and he handed it over.

"This is their criminal evidence. They can prove that during the expedition to Fanxing Town, these people communicated in series many times, crossed the bottom line, and killed us who are also humans, who are fighting bloody battles with monsters on the front line and exploring the dark world. .”

As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion in the whole crowd.

"What did you say?"

"This is slander, framing, and framing!"

"We absolutely did not do such a thing!"

"The bottom line of human beings cannot be violated!"

The yelling and scolding continued, Rhodes was unmoved, just watching them like watching a monkey show.

Armando's expression became numb, without any expression, but Rhodes keenly noticed a trace of surprise and surprise flashing in his eyes, thinking, looking at this First Elder, he had already disliked them.

At the same time, he also realizes that although Amando hates him, he just sticks to his position. The difference with the king is only a difference in the choice of Trorian's future route, not for his own self-interest.

The first elder took the picture crystal, and the spiritual energy rose from the palm of his hand and passed across the crystal.

His psychic power is not very strong, unlike Wang's psychic power, which is like the scorching sun in the sky, but it gives people a sense of tenacity that grows stronger with age.

After scanning the crystal with spiritual energy, he confirmed that there was nothing abnormal in the crystal, and then he injected the spiritual energy into it.

The crystal lit up immediately, and a picture emerged, in which there were several familiar figures talking about something.

Although there is no sound, it is easy to tell what he is talking about from the lips.

The picture of the photo crystal is very clear, and you can even see the subtle ripples in the air. The two phases are verified, and there is no ambiguity about what they said.

They were discussing how to destroy Fanxing Town and kill Rhodes.

Suddenly, with a few thuds, several people in the crowd fell to the ground.

A large area was vacated by the people around in an instant, as if they were some untouchable creatures.

Suddenly someone shouted: "He, they are guilty! I have found out that they are guilty a long time ago! Draw a line with them!"

"Yes, yes, me too!"

"Me too!"

Suddenly, there was a large echo in the crowd.

Amando said blankly: "Crasso, Gore, Tolan, you have violated the prohibition of the royal city, Fire Priest, put them in an underground prison, deprive them of all their property, and wait for trial."

Inside the holy fire sacrificial site, the silence was so great that only the sound of the burning holy fire remained.

The fire priest wearing a fiery red robe flew from a distance and brought out the few people who had collapsed on the ground.

In this absolute silence, Rhodes took out two photo crystals and handed them over with a smile.

"and also."

Armando's expression remained unchanged, but he took the crystal very quickly.

Enter the spiritual power again, and two more scenes that can definitely kill people appear on the screen.

Four more fell to the ground and were led out by the fire priest.

Rhodes took out two more photo crystals.

The crowd became panicked, with someone yelling: "Where are you from?"

"How could you...just record such crucial information? This is too abnormal!"

"Can the image be forged? Is it a new technology of the Engineering Research Institute?"

"Impossible!" An elder denied, "The Industrial Machinery Research Institute has no similar research projects recently."

"Maybe it's the ancient technology he obtained in Fanxing Town!"

Voices of doubt came from all directions, but a surge of powerful spiritual energy drowned the voice of doubt under the fluctuations.

Wang glanced over, and asked gently: "Little Rhodes, can you explain their origins, lest some people with ulterior motives look for excuses."

As soon as Rhodes rolled his eyes, he thought of an excuse.

"I ignited a new fire that allows me to see the images of the past and record them in the image crystal."

As soon as the words fell, the entire crowd shook.

Some scolded, some jumped, some turned pale, and some questioned loudly.

"Impossible, I've never heard of a fire or property like it!"

Rhodes shrugged: "Can't you let the people from the Engineering Research Institute come to check it? I can also demonstrate it to you on the spot."

Amando said indifferently: "Notify the bald master and let him come in person."

Master Bald is the director of the Engineering Research Institute, so one can imagine the importance of asking him to come here in person.

Several fire priests led away, but after a while, the bald master arrived at the holy fire sacrifice ground.

He bowed sincerely to the holy flame three times before walking over with big strides, and said with a bold smile: "Little Rhodes, we meet again, how about the gazing light I made for you? Isn't it mighty? "

Rhodes smiled and said, "That's right, Master Bald, it helped me a lot, but I've run out of bullets in the spirit world, I hope you can help me make some more."

"no problem!"

The bald master laughed out loud, looking extremely happy.

"It is the greatest honor in my life to be able to help the new star of mankind. Ah, Your Majesty, Your Excellency the First Elder, hello."

Amondo didn't care about his roughness, and said indifferently: "Master Bald, start checking immediately, we need to know what his new fire is."

The bald master agreed immediately, and took out a crystal of soul working substance from his arms. Without using any other equipment, he pressed one hand on the crystal and the other on Rhodes' forehead.

A faint psychic radiance surged from him, the light flickered in the crystal, and a strange silhouette was constantly changing.

"Well, the seventh fire is very, very powerful. I feel the ancient wildness, strong killing intent, lofty and vastness, mysterious and magnificent are its characteristics, and flexible and changeable are its attributes."

"It seems to be related to the stars. It is rotating, drawing, and moving. Oh, it must be a pipe. One end of it seems to be connected to the infinite past, and the other end is connected to the infinite future. There are countless gravel in the middle, just like time. Hourglass."

What he said at the beginning was somewhat normal, but the more he said it, the more outrageous it became.

"I see! Its characteristics are related to time, I named it the Worm of Time!"

At the same time, the soul text transformed by the soul fluctuation of this kindling seed is displayed on the crystal, as well as its multilingual translation.

Although "The Worm of Time" is a free translation, it seems to be relatively close to the original text.

Rhodes curled his lips, he was used to the scary translation in the royal city.

Compared with "rice bucket", "second shot" and "grass", this name is friendly enough.

The bald master laughed and patted him on the shoulder.

"As expected of our little hero! This fire is very powerful, we must exercise it well."

Suddenly, Tallinas shouted: "No! I don't believe it! Who knows if this is not a script that has been arranged long ago?"

Rhodes smiled and said, "What do you want?"

"You use it now and show us!"

"it is good."

Rhodes readily agreed, he closed his eyes, and after a few seconds, he took out another image crystal and input spiritual energy.

Everyone looked up, and the picture in the crystal turned out to be what happened in the holy fire sacrificial field just now.

From the perspective of a third party, everyone's reaction can be seen in full view.

The holy fire sacrificial field is an absolute forbidden place, and it is impossible for anyone to secretly take pictures, and the start time of this picture-taking crystal was even before Rhodes' arrival.

Panic spread wildly, and no one could speak.

Rhodes proved with irrefutable facts that his spark has the ability to go back in time, and his photo crystal came from a normal source.

The First Elder suddenly snapped his fingers, and everyone realized that his silent spiritual energy had already been transmitted.

In an instant, a large number of fire priests surrounded everyone, and a large number of fire guardians descended from the sky to guard the holy fire.

Armando said lightly: "Take it all out."

As expected of being the First Elder, he already guessed it... Rhodes smiled slightly, and the photo crystals kept falling from his cuff like magic, and quickly piled up into a hill.

"A total of 190 seven copies."

Rhodes said.

"Involving 180 six masterminds, 660 seven participants, of which 600 are sinners, 67 are doomsday believers, and..."

Rhodes stretched out a finger, pointing to Chief Executive Officer Tallinas.

"He is the leader of this group of doomsday believers!"

Tarynas' eyes were red on the spot, and he rushed forward with a howl.

But in an instant, dozens of fire priests descended from the sky and threw him to the ground. The psychic energy chains bound his whole body in an instant, and a powerful seal immediately stuck to his chest, suppressing all the psychic energy in his whole body. .

Tarynas kept struggling and howling, cursing Rhodes, the royal city, humans, everything.

Armando said lightly: "Take them all down and put them in an underground prison. The Internal Affairs Tribunal and the Trial Court will immediately screen everyone. Don't let anyone go. Let the Industrial Machinery Research Institute make ten copies of these picture crystals immediately. Save it for storage!"

"Yes!"

The fire priests immediately took everyone down from the scene, and the photo crystals were kept by special personnel. The Internal Affairs Tribunal and the Tribunal went as fast as they could to arrest the sinners who didn't show up.

The holy fire sacrificial field finally became quiet again.

Wang Yan looked at Rhodes with a smile: "Our little hero, you are really amazing."

Armando nodded slightly.

"If these pests are not cleaned up, it will be difficult for us to continue the next operation."

The first defense chief Lin sighed: "Little Rhodes, I can't count how many times this is the first time you have brought us surprises."

"Maybe you really are the legendary Son of Light."

Everyone laughed, even Armando, who was always serious, showed a little smile.

However, in a friendly atmosphere, someone suddenly raised doubts.

"Can this kindling see everything?"

Rhodes scratched his head: "Uh, yes, there are no dead ends, but the time is limited, and the farther you go, the more spiritual power you will consume. I guess I can only see the ones from a year ago at most."

"Then don't we have no privacy?"

Everyone frowned, the word privacy is rare, and it seemed abnormal for someone to pay so much attention to privacy all of a sudden.

But what he said next made everyone feel that it was really inappropriate.

"Then what if he secretly photographed us taking a bath? I heard that even someone as strong as the Moon Knight Olivia has been secretly photographed. That person has not been found yet."

In an instant, everyone's eyes were on Rhodes.

-

-

In the end, Rhodes was not subject to any restrictive measures, but he was only prohibited from approaching private places such as bedrooms, toilets, and bathrooms for no reason.

If it is necessary to get close, the psionic energy must be banned.

Of course, this doesn't really help.

The Book of the Past could see a wider area than they imagined, and it was impossible to stare at him sixteen hours a day.

Rhodes isn't that kind of pervert either, he's not interested in sneak shots, and he's not interested in small movies—I've already played in person, so why watch small movies?Isn't Molly sweet?
To be honest, Rhodes now has a huge change in her opinion.

She is not as boring as she seems on the surface, in fact, she is not only super moist, but also super moist.

Her usual meticulous and serious image has become a bonus item.

However, everyone left him like a thief, which made people feel a little unhappy.

But this little unhappiness can't be compared with the happiness brought by what is happening now.

He wiped out the maggots hidden in the royal city in one wave, and a large number of degenerate and corrupt guys were imprisoned in the underground prison, and all the doomsday cultists who mixed in were also taken out.

The work of the Internal Affairs Tribunal and the Tribunal has never been so smooth. They no longer lack key evidence, and no longer have to rack their brains to dig out secrets.

As long as you find something suspicious, invite Rhodes over and you're done.

The chief adjudicator and the chief judge seemed to have dug up a treasure, wishing they could keep Rhodes by their side all day long.

The adjudicators and judges have never been so powerful. Except for those who were convicted by Rhodes, they followed the vine and arrested a large number of people, and used Rhodes to investigate a lot of suspects.

Afterwards, the entire upper city was turned upside down.

A large number of doomsday cultists who managed to sneak in were arrested one after another, several doomsday cults were destroyed, and many corrupted guys were dug out.

After this wave of cleansing, the atmosphere of the entire Wangcheng was different. When walking on the street, even the air became much brighter.

Moreover, the countless family properties that were seized also contributed greatly to the expansion of armaments.

And the biggest advantage is that everything becomes extremely smooth, and the obstructing sand and stones are cleared away.

It was only then that everyone realized that many difficulties encountered before had disappeared unconsciously, and every step was as smooth as if it had been oiled.

There are no more difficult births, no more setbacks and failures, and this kind of happiness feels like flying.

And all of this was brought by Rhodes.

Now, in this desperate dark world, many people already believe.

he.

will bring us light.
