the last king of darkness

Chapter 381 Leave it to me
Heman and Zhang Bai looked at each other, both were surprised by each other's eyes.

If he wasn't Rhodes, but an ordinary palace warrior, they would definitely reprimand him for his actions.

But he is.

So they agreed.

The underground entrance is in the center of Star City. It is an extremely huge pit. Looking down from above, countless lights can be vaguely seen.

Herman said: "It used to be the underground prison of Star City, which was used to hold unforgivable prisoners, but it was blown up during a fierce battle, forming this deep pit."

Rhode looked over, and the sight of the eye of the soul penetrated the barrier, allowing him to see the scene deep underground.

On the pitch-black ground, many warriors are fighting fiercely.

Their enemy is a pure black monster, like a condensate of black mist, its soul strength surpasses the general fierce level, reaching the level of super fierce level.

The battle is tough, the black monsters are formidable, and they far outnumber the fighters.

Herman's face became very ugly: "Why are there more dark creatures? Could it be..."

Rhodes took a few glances and confirmed that the monster was coming up from a deeper layer, but it was shrouded in thick darkness, and even the vision of the eye of the soul was blocked.

Zhang Bai said gloomyly: "The situation is not very good. The situation at the top has become like this, and the situation at the bottom is already unimaginable. I think we should inform Qing Yu and Lord Lockhart immediately, our evacuation plan has to be advanced .”

Herman nodded slightly: "Otherwise it will be too late, it is better for a warrior to cut off his wrist than to wipe out the entire army."

But when Zhang Bai was about to take out the Spirit Crow Messenger, he was caught by Rhodes.

"Don't worry, I will make a move."

Zhang Bai looked at him in surprise: "Brother Rhodes, this cannot be saved by manpower. The underground space of Star City is very deep. In addition to the underground prison, there are also deep holes we dug, huge pits dug by the predecessors, and In terms of depth, there are at least a dozen layers."

Herman said anxiously: "So many dark creations have flooded from the top floor, which proves that the battle below can no longer hold up, and our defense system is about to collapse."

"In front of the huge darkness, personal combat power is very small, and you can't change the situation of the battle."

Rhodes shook his head: "Not necessarily."

Stepping on the toes, the spiritual energy came together, and with a bang, the figure shot out like lightning.

When the person was in midair, the phantom had already appeared, and a powerful wave of spiritual energy radiated out. The flash of spiritual energy completely covered the two figures, and they smashed into the crowd of monsters like two incandescent meteors.

A piece of monster was directly reduced to ashes.

Rhodes got up from the ashes, holding "Starry Night", and the tenth-level psychic energy was fully activated. The powerful psychic energy fluctuations spread like a storm, and the dark creation nearly ten yards high was blown away.

"Support has arrived."

Rhodes said loudly.

"For Trorian!"

Under the blessing of spiritual energy, the voice spread far away, drawing a uniform response from the soldiers.

"For Trorian!"

Rhodes flew out in one step and rushed into the group of monsters. His sword was like a stream of light, and his body was like lightning. He instantly tore the monsters to pieces. No matter how difficult the dark creation was, it was as fragile as thin paper in front of him.

And there is another such existence.

Rhodes and Phantom started a massacre among the dark monsters on the left and right.

Wherever the shining sword light went, monsters fell down like wheat, and the darkness was split like waves, which shocked the soldiers.

"Where did this support come from?"

"So strong, this is definitely a top master in physical combat!"

"His combat moves are extremely proficient, and he can't fail to practice after 20 years of hard work!"

"No, the key is that he is using his soul to fight!"

"Such a high efficiency, could it be Lord Taylor?"

"Idiot! Taro's characteristic is light, and he doesn't fight like that at all!"

"Then who is he?"

Amidst the discussion, the soldiers did not forget to fight the enemy bravely, and the situation gradually improved.

Seeing this, Herman and Zhang Bo could only silently join the battle.

After about half an hour, all the monsters on the surface were killed.

The soldiers surrounded the two figures one after another, but Heman stopped them.

"Rest now, heal your wounds, and restore your spiritual energy! Prepare for the next battle!"

Rhodes turned off the phantom, and felt the power of tenth-level psionic energy for the first time.

The phantom's double consumption had almost no effect on him, and his spiritual energy was still full, no different from before he fell.

The topmost dark creations have been purged, and the warriors finally have time to breathe.

Rhodes frowned. Just like in Storm Castle, these monsters basically had no souls, only dozens of soulless souls.

Obviously, the source of their power is not here.

"This must be a dark distortion vision!"

The Book of Knowledge said categorically.

"This underground area has been deeply polluted. The black mist has eroded to the bottom of the world, making the power of distortion and corruption stronger, and the power of fire has been greatly suppressed."

"It stands to reason that the cause of it will be extremely powerful, and I don't know why there is no trace."

Rhodes didn't care either, and looked at Herman and Zhang Bai who came up, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go deeper."

Heman said anxiously: "Brother Rhodes, such a victory is useless. The number of dark creations is endless, and we can't find the root cause. The more we fight, the weaker we will be, and we will be drowned sooner or later."

Rhodes nodded: "You are right, so we must find the root cause."

With a leap, he jumped into the thick black mist below.

"This……"

Heman and Zhang Bai looked at each other and could only follow.

The black mist below was very strong and erosive, but Rhodes was not afraid. He didn't even carry a lantern on him, so he relied on the eyes of the soul to lead the way and frantically hunted monsters.

Heman and Zhang Bo could only follow behind and destroy these dark creatures together.

Their strength is not bad, they are standard hall-level fighters, they are really working at full strength, and their hunting efficiency is also very high.

But compared with Rhodes, that is nothing. Rhodes' current spiritual energy is extremely strong. Although he has not completed the promotion ceremony, the power can be released or not, but he doesn't need to collect it now, just keep letting it go.

And after going through the battle to the death and training during this period, his combat skills have also been greatly improved, and he has further mastered the skills of soul combat, the efficiency of spiritual energy transformation has been greatly improved, and his endurance is super strong.

He and his phantom, like two meat grinders, rampage through the dark monsters.

As long as he goes, the situation will improve rapidly, and the original rotten situation is rapidly improving.

-

The lowest level of Star City.

The deep and thick black mist rolled and filled the air, firmly suppressing several places of light within a yard.

On the pure black stone ground, the corpse of the monster was slowly turning into ashes, flying away into the black mist, and gradually merging into one.

The guardian Qingyu and the army leader Lockhart of the Conquest Legion were standing on the edge of the cliff. In front of them was a bottomless abyss. The deep cold black mist rushed towards their faces, carrying a boulder-like heaviness and hell. A sense of suffocation.

After a long time, Qingyu sighed softly: "Your Excellency Lockhart, it seems impossible to find the source."

Lockhart was a massive man with a huge scar on his face that nearly split his head in half, thick like the mark of some kind of glue.

"Your Highness."

He was silent for a long time before uttering two words from his lips.

"What's under this?"

Qingyu shook her head slightly: "I don't know, it may be the path leading to the abyss, it may be the dark side of the universe, it has existed for a long time, the Star City built by the Kingdom of Stars exists only to seal it, we are all wrong, It is impossible to light the fire of protection here."

Lockhart said bitterly: "Without fire, how did the former Star City exist?"

Qingyu paused for a few seconds, and said: "I guess, it may be some kind of power of the Queen of Stars suppressing this place. When Starry Sky City in Tasnia fell and the Queen's power disappeared, the City of Stars suffered hundreds of times. Retaliation, that's why it was destroyed so thoroughly."

Lockhart raised his head and looked at Qingyu, with a rare pleading in his tone.

"Your Highness, is there really no other way?"

Qingyu shook her head: "No, unless the king comes personally with the holy flame, it is impossible to break the curse of Star City, we can only re-seal it, and then give up."

Lockhart remained silent. He fought in Star City for more than a year, sacrificed countless partners and comrades-in-arms, and devoted countless efforts and strength. Recovering Star City has long been his obsession.

After going through untold hardships, I finally reached the last step, but found that this problem turned out to be unsolvable.

An unprecedented violent emotion rose in Lockhart's heart. Depression and rage alternated, making him only want to destroy.

At this moment, a strange wave of spiritual energy came, and the two immediately turned their heads.

Although the black mist greatly compressed the range of spiritual vision, their perception was still clear.

In the distance, an extremely flamboyant guy was walking towards them.

His psychic energy was very active, and it continued to radiate outward as if he couldn't control it. In this dark and gloomy underground, it was like a radiant sun.

Lockhart yelled angrily: "This is that idiot? Tenth-level psionic power is amazing? Don't you know the basic principle of disturbance? It's so dangerous here, how can you release psionic power like this? Do you think you have tenth-level psionic power?"

Qingyu frowned slightly, she also felt very inappropriate, the deepest underground layer of Star City is very dangerous.

Such a blatant disturbance may cause a lot of unnecessary troubles.

However, she felt something was wrong again. This psionic waveform was very familiar, which gave her a feeling of déjà vu.

She couldn't believe it until he stepped into the last hole.

"Rod!"

Qingyu suddenly shouted, and the voice was spread far away under the blessing of spiritual energy.

The figure really reacted, and immediately rushed towards the direction of the voice.

Sure enough it was him!

Qingyu bit her red lips lightly, almost in disbelief.

It's been a long time since I saw him, and he has level ten psionic abilities!

The young boy who used to be young can fight side by side with her in the blink of an eye.

In the eyes of these people, only the most dangerous battles can be called real battles, and only when they fight together in such battles can they be recognized as comrades who fight side by side.

Therefore, second-level combatants are considered the backbone of high-level combatants.

And now, he has done it.

Complicated emotions passed in a flash, Qingyu reached out to stop Lockhart who was about to explode, and watched Rhodes come to her.

There was flickering psychic energy flashing around him, and the powerful psychic energy fluctuations became more conspicuous under the spiritual vision.

Qingyu's tone was full of joy and doubt: "You are really level ten?"

Rhodes smiled: "Of course."

Qingyu frowned slightly: "Then why didn't you complete the psychic energy promotion ceremony? Your psychic energy will be out of control."

Rhodes said casually: "The situation in Star City is urgent, how can I not be urgent?"

Lockhart said angrily: "Where did such a brat come from? Don't you think your disturbance is not big enough? Is tenth-level psionic power amazing?"

Rhodes hadn't spoken yet, the next moment, an unreasonable pain and destructive anger suddenly appeared in Lockhart's heart.

This emotion was so powerful that it immediately aroused his vigilance.

Lockhart took a deep breath, stifling his rage.

At this time, Qingyu also approached, and her slender fingertips pressed a ball of fire into Lockhart's forehead.

Lockhart's whole body was illuminated by the light, and after a few seconds, he let out a long breath.

"I'm ready."

Qingyu nodded slightly: "Fortunately, it was discovered in time. Once the blackening of the soul reaches the deepest level, your only destiny is to become a fallen person."

Lockhart sighed, then turned around and bowed to Rhodes: "I'm sorry, Lord Rhodes, just now my soul has been blackened, I almost fell, and my temperament has changed, please understand."

Rhodes nodded: "It's okay."

Lockhart asked directly: "Is the supporter Wang Cheng said you are?"

"Correct."

"Then prepare to give up."

Qingyu's expression was also a little sad: "Little Rhodes, there is nothing we can do here."

At this time, Herman and Zhang Bai also came from behind.

Along the way, they finally understood why there were more and more dark creations.

The depth of this dungeon was many times greater than what they imagined. When they came to its deepest point and saw the huge abyss that seemed to go straight to the center of the earth, they found the answer to everything.

——Countless black worms are climbing up from the abyss, and gradually grow into dark creations.

That desperate amount cannot be killed by a single person.

"Brother Rhodes, give up as soon as possible, there is still time."

"The City of Stars really can't hold it anymore."

Rhodes ignored their words, took two steps forward, and glanced at the abyss-like broken wall in front of him.

"No problem, leave it to me."
