the last king of darkness

Chapter 30

Rhodes also opened the eyes of the soul. Ink-like colors diffused from the matter, and light spots began to appear in the air. Raistlin and the three of them turned into a bright mist, with nerve-like veins running through it, very dazzling .

Directly in front of them, a black shadow was evaporating. It seemed to be the monster that Raistlin had just shattered.

A little farther away, there are many black shadows like this, they wander around, wandering in the thin black mist, sometimes they will take the initiative to get close to the house on one side, but when they encounter the spirit lamp, they seem to be frightened. Dogs generally jump away.

Rhodes shouted: "There are still many ahead."

"it is good!"

Raistlin held the shield in one hand and the knife in the other. He swung his right hand violently, and with a click, the folded blade bounced off instantly. Then he shouted loudly, the aura flashed on his body, and layers of phantoms appeared around him.

He stopped and rushed into the pack of dogs.

The sudden bright light dispelled the already thin black mist, and the big ghostly dogs were frightened away.

But the next moment, the big dog's eyes turned red, its mouth elongated, and its huge fangs popped out from the upper and lower jaws that didn't fit their size at all. In an instant, it changed from a somewhat strange black dog to a terrifying monster.

Bloody mouths came from all directions, Raistlin swung his long knife, and cut the three mouths into two pieces. With the top of the shield, one mouth split directly, but at the same time, the four mouths behind him bit his back fiercely. .

"careful!"

But in the next instant, countless steel thorns popped out from Raistlin's back, piercing the four big dogs into hedgehogs.

He then turned, turning his back to where the most enemies were.

Brush brush!
The steel thorns popped out like a torrential rain, piercing through the black dogs.

The dead black dog fell to the ground. Tiny black spots rose from the body and dissipated into the air. The steel thorns gradually became transparent, turning into phantoms and disappearing.

And from beginning to end, Iger and Caramon had no intention of stepping forward.

Caramon also yelled, "Exercise, haven't you eaten?"

Raistlin asked angrily, "Did Donna ask you that?" He cut a black dog in two with a backhand knife, but more black dogs rushed up, and he was soon surrounded by heavy siege.

"Aren't you guys going to help?" Rhodes asked hesitantly.

Iger curled his lips and said, "He can solve these gray-level monsters by himself."

Caramon blushed and said angrily, "He's the best. Let him do it."

Rhode's heart moved, realizing that this was an excellent opportunity, he took out the spirit gun from his arms, and asked, "Can I attack them from a distance?"

Iger gave him a strange look: "No need, real silver bullets are very expensive."

Of course Rhodes knew it was expensive, and he still owed the fifty rounds of real silver bullets, but compared to his life, this amount of money was nothing.

"I want to practice it so I don't get scared when I encounter them in the future."

Iger smiled and said, "As long as you're not afraid of waste, it's fine."

Rhodes was certain and raised his gun.

Now he is much more proficient, the one-second infusion of spiritual energy and aiming are carried out at the same time, and the muzzle of the gun is also aimed at the target when the spiritual pressure gauge reaches the top.

With a bang, the real silver bullet shot out, accurately hitting a black dog, passing through the other side of its body and exploding.

Silver light burst out, blasting the four surrounding black dogs to pieces.

The wreckage scattered and fell to the ground. It seemed that it was due to destructive damage. Their evaporation speed was much faster, and large black dust rose into the sky and quickly dissipated in the dark void.

But this time, Rhodes clearly saw four extremely thin black lines made of black dust flying from the void and sinking into his heart.

Immediately afterwards, four lines of extremely faint small characters [Dust-Like Soul] flashed across the eyes.

Rhodes looked at Iger and Caramon nervously, but they didn't seem to notice, and praised: "Good marksmanship, clean and neat."

"That's right, much more powerful than Raistlin's useless counterattack barrier."

They didn't seem to be able to see... Rhode felt relieved, and then the second shot accurately hit the dogs, taking away five black dogs.

The pack of dogs became a little unstable, some of the black dogs looked towards this side, as if they were about to pounce, but Raistlin rushed forward, a burst of steel needles sweeping randomly, knives splitting shields and slapping, instantly pulled back the attraction of the pack of dogs.

This hatred is really stable... Rhodes instantly understood the meaning of the tactical position, and quickly started shooting, each shot hit the most densely populated position of the dog group, a large number of black lines flew one after another, [Dust-like Soul 】It keeps flickering in the eyes.

Iger and Caramon couldn't sit still anymore. The former began to shoot white smoke, piercing the black dogs, while the latter swung his long whip and beat them from a distance.

The dogs were kept firmly chained by Raistlin all the time, they never turned around and attacked them once, and they were quickly cleared away.

Raistlin walked back and high-fived the three. "A small victory."

Turning to Rhodes with a smile: "You fired ten shots, seventy silver cords, why don't you invite us to the Healing Order to enjoy soul therapy."

Rhodes was surprised: "Seventy silver wires are enough?"

"Ah? Can't you?"

Rhodes hesitated for a moment and didn't tell his experience. He felt that adding a zero at the end was not enough for him alone.

Raistlin didn't care either, he untied the lamp from his waist and held it up high.

Rhodes saw the veins in his hand brighten, obviously spiritual energy was gathering and pouring into the lamp.

In the next instant, the spirit lamp radiated dazzling light, illuminating the entire neighborhood in every detail.

Raistlin controlled the psychic power, made the lamp shine, and hung it back around his waist after ten times.

"It's our practice to tell the residents that the fighting is over and they don't need to panic."

It wasn't until this moment that Rhodes noticed that there were many figures in the houses on both sides. They gradually dispersed after seeing the flashing light, and they could still faintly hear a lot of prayers, blessings, and words of thanks.

"Let's go."

The patrol team was on the road again, and they chatted relaxedly, as if what happened just now had never happened.

Only Rhodes was anxious. Although he had just harvested a lot of souls, he couldn't return to the dreamland. What if the stars went out at this time...

It doesn't matter, as long as I move faster, it should be fine.

Rhodes clasped his hands in his sleeves, crossed his thumbs, and pinched out the lightning symbol. His eyes suddenly blurred, and his soul soared into the air.

In just a moment, he returned to the dreamland.

A gray, bleak mist floats silently in this boundless space, a solitary obelisk stands in the center, and a black altar stands behind it to the right.

Above the altar, more than 60 dusty flames floated.

Rhodes didn't bother to observe carefully, and rushed to the obelisk, touched the surface of the obelisk, and the night sky appeared again, and two stars, one red and one blue, also appeared in front of his eyes.

Rhodes glanced over them quickly.

The dark red star is still burning brightly, it says.

【Dark Devourer】

[Status: Constant burning]

[Star Energy: Soul Corrosion]

【Injection: Unavailable】

[Quantitative: Darkness of Abyss, Fog of Eternity, Blood of Ancient Ross]

【Position: Eternal Flame】

[Strength: Thirty]

[Description: Omit. 】

And the blue stars are so dim that they are almost the same as those illusory spots of light. It says:

【Broken Blue】

[Status: about to go out]

[Star Power: Resurrection of the Spirit]

[Injection: Spiritless Soul]

【Quantified: not available】

【Position: Dark Fire】

[Strength: [-]]

[Description: We still need to love each other with our lives, even if the world bullies each other with meanness. 】

Now that the translation is much more accurate, Rhodes focused his gaze on the blue star, and with a thought, more than 60 balls of fire instantly fell into the obelisk, and more than 60 small meteors appeared in the night sky, flying into the blue star together. middle.

It brightened visibly, and the light began to boil like a burning bonfire.

The status changed from "about to go out" to "weak burning", and the intensity also changed from "one" to "two", and it was slowly rising.

But several other items have not changed.

Rhodes frowned slightly, it seemed that it needed more souls.

[The Devourer of Darkness] seems to be much more special than it. It only ate the soul once and became an "eternal fire" in a state of "constant burning". After that, it could no longer inject the soul, but could be "quantified".

But what does "quantified" mean?
Why are they so different?Is it the essence?Or is the soul eaten different?
Rhode didn't think carefully, and quickly pinched his gestures, his eyes blurred again, and a strong sense of weightlessness enveloped him.

In an instant, he returned to the real world.

When he opened his eyes, on the dark street, the three of them were looking back at him, their eyes seemed a little strange.

"what happened to you?"

Rhodes quickly let go of his hand and smiled awkwardly.

"Sorry, I was so sleepy, I accidentally fell asleep."

Rhodes noticed that the aura in Caramon's hand flickered slightly, and invisible ripples brushed past his face. He felt his spirit lifted up for a moment, and he felt like a spring breeze.

Then these three people smiled, walked over and hooked his neck, and pulled him along.

"Sleeping is not allowed."

"You have to know, to us, it might just be an ordinary monster, but to civilians, it's a family's nightmare."

"We are the guardians of Wangcheng now. The lives of 1000 households and [-] people in Iron Cross Street are on our shoulders."

"Come on, let's talk about something more exciting. What do you think of the dream of Miss Mipoer's family, one of the top ten beauties in Wangcheng?"
