the last king of darkness

Chapter 404 Wishes
Lilivie was the Guardian, a powerful first-class combatant, but she was now clearly infected and corrupted by that unknown prayer.

Jon has left, leaving only 3 secondary combatants on the scene.

Rhodes knew that the situation couldn't get any worse, but he still suppressed the fear in his heart and said calmly, "It's nothing, I just see if prayer works."

Li Liwei's smile became serious, festering flesh and blood danced on her face.

"Of course it works. Why do you doubt the greatness of Lord Theodore?"

Rhodes calmly replied: "Of course not."

Turning his head slightly, he winked at Misor and Hall quietly.

However, the two of them didn't look at Li Liwei, but stared at him, faintly approaching him.

Hall even made a half-empty seal in his hand.

"Rod, you are very wrong."

"Be sober, you are a new star of miracles and a hero of mankind."

"You pushed so many sealed doors, your soul must have been polluted a lot, you can't stand it anymore, can you?"

"Don't worry, you have tried your best, and Wang Cheng will not give up on you."

Rhodes thumped in his heart. He didn't know why these two people couldn't even see the abnormal situation close at hand, but they had doubts about him.

Li Liwei smiled softly: "Don't be afraid, little Rhodes, Lord Theodore will bless you, you are his favorite student, even more than me..."

Powerful psychic energy rose before her eyes, the flames of chaos swirled and burned, and her voice became ferocious.

"Hahahahahaha, how could I hurt you?"

Rhode took a step back, but bumped into the seal of space, like an invisible wall of air, preventing him from going back.

Oops!

The deadly flames flew towards him, but he had nowhere to hide. However, at this extremely critical moment, Rhodes suddenly realized one thing, a possibility.

As soon as he thought about it, his soul immediately soared into the air, passed through the endless nothingness, and came to the dreamland.

When I opened my eyes, I saw the slowly drifting mist, tall obelisks, scattered but arranged buildings in a specific orientation, a quiet night sky, five shining stars in the night sky, and people who were concentrating on restoring My Book of Knowledge.

All this familiarity made the fear in Rhodes' heart disappear quickly.

The next second, a large group of black ghosts flew out of his body. It was exposed in the dream, like a bug being thrown into boiling water, and quickly annihilated amidst the sound of wailing.

【The soul of the devouring insect】

Rhodes was shocked, he was indeed parasitized by something.

No wonder he always felt something was wrong, the situation changed too fast and too weird, everything seemed to show a hideous face in an instant, it felt very inconsistent.

The Book of Knowledge raised its cover in surprise: "Master, what's wrong with you? This is... what?"

"We were parasitized and had some kind of mental hallucination."

Rhode briefly told what happened, then left the dream and returned to the material world.

Sure enough, the moment he opened his eyes, the scene in his eyes had changed. Hall was fighting fiercely with Mithor, while Liliwei clenched her fists with both hands, pressed them to her heart, closed her eyes to pray, and murmured.

"Lord Theodore will protect me, Lord Theodore will protect me..."

Rhodes opened the eyes of the soul, and saw that there were black tentacles floating on their souls, apparently parasitized by spirit devouring insects.

"What should I do?" Rhodes asked in his heart.

The Book of Knowledge quickly replied: "Use the tears of the goddess."

Rhode's heart sank. There were not many tears of the goddess left. Fortunately, he collected a lot of starlight fragments when the stars were shining last time, so he could create some more.

It is good to use at this time.

He quickly took out three Tears of the Goddess and fed the next one to Liliwei.

The tears of the goddess turned into a piece of silver light and entered Liliwei's soul. The movements of the blackened tentacles became intense, but they were still quickly expelled from the soul.

It has a sharp head and dozens of claws, waving wildly in the air.

Rhodes mentioned the psionic energy and blasted it with a punch, and the shattered spirit body quickly evaporated into black dust and dissipated in the air.

Li Liwei also woke up at this moment.

The moment she opened her eyes, she knew what had happened.

"We are parasitized by evil spirits, aren't we?"

Rhodes said in a deep voice, "That's right, it's something called a spirit devourer."

Li Liwei trembled slightly, looking terrified: "I'm most afraid of these things, how did you let us recover?"

"Tears of the Goddess."

Rhodes spread his palms.

"My special creation, Your Excellency Lilivi, they are in battle, please stop them."

Li Liwei nodded slightly, and a strong spiritual light shone out.

She didn't see any movement, and the two of them were frozen in midair.

"Okay, let them recover quickly." Her tone was slightly anxious, as if she didn't like the appearance of her soul being parasitized by bugs.

Rhodes could see clearly that Lilivia didn't use any special abilities, she just wrapped them with materialized spiritual energy, and then instantly transformed into a stagnant state, just like putting steel molds on them, and the two couldn't be separated in an instant. Moved.

Is this the strength of a first-level combatant?
Can it be so hard?

Rhodes was amazed in his heart, but without any hesitation in his hands, he quickly fed them the tears of the goddess.

The two finally came to their senses, and Rhodes wiped out the spirit devouring insects. These little things are not powerful, but they are very dangerous.

Lilivi briefly explained the situation.

Hall's face became very gloomy, and he said, "It must have been taken down while fighting the thirsty soul demon."

Misor looked very frustrated: "I'm really useless..."

Rhodes said in a deep voice: "Everyone, we don't have time to spend here. I doubt that the longing demons in this underground complex have been alarmed. We must find the main hall as soon as possible."

Mithor asked softly, "What if we meet the spirit devourer again?"

Li Liwei said: "Use spiritual energy to protect the whole body, and keep the spiritual energy active at all times, just like a monster."

Rhodes nodded: "I still have the Tears of the Goddess, which can be dispelled in case I get hit again, let's go."

But before leaving, he took a special look at Li Liwei.

"Your Excellency Lilivie, can I have a look at your prayer gestures?"

Li Liwei clenched her fists, pressed them on her chest, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Theodore is the incarnation of fire. I will only pray to him with the ritual of fire. When he returns from the stars, he will be very happy to see me. "

Only then did Rhodes feel relieved, confirming the hallucinations he had seen before.

As for that outlandish prophecy, it probably doesn't make sense at all.

Perhaps, Hall's words are justified, there is no need to complicate simple things, the intuition is right, just go through it recklessly.

After walking for a while, Rhodes pushed open a smaller sealed door, and a narrow corridor appeared.

Rhodes determined the direction, led everyone into the tunnel, and moved forward carefully.

Sure enough, there were spirit-eating insects in the tunnel. Under his full concentration, Rhodes could already see their translucent figures floating in the air like a harmless mayfly.

But if it is pierced into the soul, it will turn black, make the host hallucinate, and finally die of madness.

Rhodes was very careful, he killed one when he saw one, and he didn't have many tears of the goddess in his hand.

After a while, they came to the end of the corridor, and the space in front of them suddenly expanded, and a huge hall appeared.

The hall was at least a hundred yards high and several thousand yards wide, and it was already dilapidated. Brown sludge filled the hall, and a huge soul-thirsty demon was wandering below.

And they're about three floors up.

Mithor said in surprise: "I feel a stronger breath of curse and seal, and we are very close to the main hall."

Li Liwei's expression was very serious.

"This is an adult Thirst Soul Demon, it is very powerful."

Rhodes asked: "Can't the fire of chaos burn it to death?"

Li Liwei replied: "Of course, the fire of chaos will never be extinguished. As long as it is touched, the god will be burned to death, but it may take thousands or tens of thousands of years. This thirsty soul demon has reached its final stage." It will take a quarter of an hour for me to burn it to death, but without Jon, you may not be able to withstand it."

"Please do not worry."

After Hall only said this sentence, he jumped down, opened the seal of space, and isolated the space.

The soul-thirsty demon collided into the sealed space, and was immediately entangled by the flames of chaos. It began to struggle crazily, and its powerful spiritual energy was on or off. The demon actually smashed the seal and rushed out.

It saw Hall at a glance, opened its huge mouth, and stabbed like lightning with its long black tongue.

Rhodes flew to block it, and his tongue instantly broke through his spiritual defense, but when it hit his body, it slipped away.

"Soul Defense": Resist an injury that should have been fatal.

"it is good!"

Hall instantly filled the seal.

And Rhodes also completed the psionicization and defended with all his strength.

In the next moment, the Soul Thirst turned around abruptly, and its huge tail swept towards it like thunder, even the seal of the sky couldn't stop it.

Rhodes couldn't dodge in time, and Hall was behind him, so he could only stand up, but before the giant tail arrived, the strong impact caused by the wind pressure alone shattered his spiritual defense.

Rhodes used "Soul Defense" for the second time to block the attack.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Liliwei used all her psionic energy, and the fire of chaos burned its soul at an accelerated rate.

The Soul Thirst Demon forgot to attack, and frantically agitated, trying to extinguish the flames, but it didn't work.

In just a moment, it was burned to ashes.

"It's safe."

Li Liwei jumped down, showing fatigue for the first time.

But Rhodes didn't care so much, a very uneasy feeling surrounded him, he just wanted to complete the task immediately.

But their battle with the soulthirsty was too long, a monstrous monster that would spread its thirst for souls like a plague, and not even the Bell of Silence could stop it.

This one had just died, and another thirsty soul demon came. Fortunately, it was not a complete body. The seal of the sky blocked its way. It only took three seconds for Li Liwei to burn it to ashes.

But the disturbance they caused was big enough.

More soul-thirsty demons crawled out of the corridor, and the hall was also filled with thirsty soul-devils in all directions. Hundreds of tongues and tails were swinging, and rotting flesh and blood were layered on top of each other.

Rhode's heart sank, Mithor shouted in despair: "We are done!"

"No."

Li Liwei said firmly, her figure floated up slightly, the flames of chaos emerged from the void, dripping on her body, infinitely powerful spiritual energy was shining, and more flames of chaos were gathered through her soul characteristics .

Thirsting soul demons rushed towards them like a sea tide, and the flames of chaos rushed towards them like a rain of fire.

The flames in the sky covered the dark blackness, and no matter how big or small, they all writhed and wailed in the deadly flames, and quickly turned to ashes.

Lilivia's flames seemed endless, and Rhodes had never seen such a powerful force. She didn't fall from midair until all the monsters were wiped out and thick ashes almost covered the hall.

Rhodes saw at a glance that more than half of Lilivia's soul had been blackened, and the backlash from killing monsters had already caused irreversible pollution to her soul body.

Her psychic energy was extremely weak, and her psychic defenses had long since disappeared. Four spirit-eating insects were inserted into her soul, and black tentacles were swimming happily in the air.

Rhodes hurried up, trying to put the tears of the goddess into her mouth, but Lilivia refused.

"No."

She said, in the same tone as before, but with unspeakable pride and joy.

"I have overdrawn the fire of chaos. This feature has a huge backlash. Within a certain period of time, I can only use a certain amount of fire of chaos, otherwise my soul will disintegrate and turn into dust, and I have far exceeded At this limit, pollution and spirit devouring insects have now become my support, if they are purified, I will quickly collapse and turn into ashes."

Rhodes was silent for a few seconds, and asked calmly, "Is there any help? What can I do?"

Lilivia raised her eyes and looked at Rhodes, but the focus of her eyes did not point to him, as if she saw the void beyond him.

"don’t worry."

she smiled gently.

"Lord Theodore will protect me. I seem to have sensed that star. He is smiling at me and praising me for a good job."

Liliwei's eyes became extremely gentle.

"Great, great, I saw Master Theodore's smile again, he is guiding me."

The air was shaking, and the ground was shaking. Rhodes raised his head in shock, and saw a bigger thirsty soul demon.

It came swiftly from the top of the hall like a great black cloud of terror.

Hall shouted: "The ultimate body! This is the ultimate body! It is infinitely close to the king level, and it wants to replace the Soul Devouring King..."

boom!
The pillar of chaotic fire hit its face, and the sparks of chaos flew all over the sky and landed on it.

Li Liwei's whole body was shining with flames, and the aura of destruction was overwhelming, but the expression on her face was extremely gentle. She opened her hands and murmured: "More, more."

Rhodes saw that in the air, more transparent worms flew towards her, inserted into her soul, and quickly turned black, with tentacles struggling to wander in the air, trying to drill deeper.

Lilivia was trembling and frightened, but she tried to open her hands wider.

"Lord Theodore will protect me!"

"Come on, form my soul, I will destroy this monster, Lord Theodore will praise me."

In just a moment, Liliwei's soul was completely unrecognizable, and the spirit devouring insects swimming with tentacles filled her soul, but she no longer trembled, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

"Ah, I see, it's Master Theodore."

"He's walking towards me."

"whee."

The flame of chaos was extinguished, and Lilivia's soul was reduced to ashes with hundreds of devouring insects, and her body also dissipated.

Above the hall, a large cloud of black ash flew into the air.

In the hall, it was eerily quiet.
