the last king of darkness

Chapter 438 Ghosts of the past (second update)
Jessica slashed down with a sword, and the phantom quickly dispersed. This sword only killed half of the phantom.

"Their connections are deepening rapidly."

cried Sauron.

"The dark distortion vision seems to have become stronger!"

Rhodes shouted: "That's right! It has gained a lot of soul and spirituality, and its soul is being born."

Sauron glanced at the layers of phantoms around him that were beginning to increase rapidly, and shouted anxiously, "How long will it take?"

"I don't know...the last time was very fast."

Sauron thumped in his heart, and asked quickly: "Jessica, the dark twisted vision seems to be unable to move, can you take the opportunity to kill it? That artifact, the Wind Wedge, must be inside it. If it can be destroyed, maybe it can be destroyed. Destroy the vision."

Jessica shook her head.

"Mr. Sauron, I can sense the power of that artifact. It has been corrupted, but the real cause is not the artifact, but the source matter inside it, which cannot be destroyed."

Sauron asked urgently, "Then what should we do?"

Jessica smiled slightly.

"Teacher, believe in Rhodes. He did it last time, and he can do it this time. He will find a way."

Sauron said anxiously: "But, can you stand it? They resonate and fit together too fast. The real knights of the Fighting Star Knights are very powerful..."

"can."

Jessica answered curtly, turned around and joined the fight again.

But this time, the movements of the phantoms were much faster. They moved and shifted, galloped and ran, their movements were nimble and swift, and they rushed in groups, and the hexapod quickly fell into a difficult battle.

But she also created enough space for Rhodes, and most of the phantoms were attracted by her and fell into a fight with her.

The tall lizard was like a giant surrounded by mosquitoes. While swinging the giant sword frantically, it quickly twisted the snake's body and moved in the canyon to ensure that she could pull more phantoms.

Rhodes was amazed in his heart, no wonder the spiritual girls are so valued, and Jessica's awakening state is too strong.

In this battle, she was the absolute frontal force, and she was always at the front to create space for Rhodes and Sauron.

At this moment, Rhode noticed that the phantom's combat ability was close to that of a third-level combatant, and Jessica had at least a few thousand phantoms around her, and she was still able to handle it with ease.

A large area was empty in the canyon, and Rhodes quickly came to the pile of corpses without being hindered too much.

Looking closely, these countless remnants are extremely disgusting. This dark distortion vision is different from others. It has a physical existence, not just a mass of twisted darkness.

A thought suddenly popped up in Rhodes' mind.

"Can I attack it directly?"

The thought flashed by, and Rhodes did what he said.

He flicked with ten fingers, and dozens of star shuttles blasted onto the pile of corpses, exploding a large amount of corpses, and the shattered corpse fragments splashed all over the ground.

But the pile of corpses did not respond, still lying motionless in its big hands.

The fragments of the corpse actually moved on their own, crawling towards the pile of corpses and merging with it.

After a while, the pile of corpses returned to its original state.

Rhodes knows that it is useless, and the attack on the dark and distorted vision is useless unless the source is eliminated.

He could only stand by the pile of corpses, staring at it with the eyes of the soul, and clenched his right hand, waiting for the birth of the dark soul.

After an unknown period of time, the transparency of the phantom has dropped to half, which means that its connection with the real has reached half.

Just looking at combat capabilities, it is already close to a second-level combatant.

The swarm of flying mosquitoes around Jessica had already formed a black mass, but under such a siege, she still protected Sauron and continued to pull new phantoms.

At the moment Rhodes was amazed, a strange fluctuation appeared.

It wasn't a ripple of psychic power, but some kind of sinister newborn manifesting its presence.

The moment the newborn dark soul appeared, it quickly opened its shell of psionic energy. As long as the shell protected it, it could temporarily guarantee safety.

However, in this flash of light and flint, Rhodes still reacted, and his right hand had been inserted into the soul.

Instead of holding the soul string, he held a large piece of darkness.

Suddenly there was an extremely strong suction force in the darkness, pulling Rhode's soul in the opposite direction.

Although this kind of situation is rare, it is not the first time that Rhodes has encountered it. He immediately mustered the spiritual energy of his whole body, and the spiritual energy of more than 5000 thousand moments erupted from the depths of his soul, and a powerful spiritual light appeared on him. Provides unrivaled power.

But that wasn't enough, the suction far outweighed his pull.

Rhodes immediately turned on [Soul Burning] again, bit the tip of his tongue, and spewed out a mouthful of blood, and the blazing flame suddenly rose and burned all over his body.

The psychic energy became hot and violent, and the highest psychic energy intensity soared instantly, but Rhodes felt that his soul was still being pulled.

Oops!

Rhodes blocked in his heart.

This dark twisted vision is so strong!

As soon as he had a thought, he suddenly touched the triple flame symbol on his collar - the crown of fire.

Another red light rose from his body, and the powerful blessing of fire possessed him. Rhodes instantly felt his strength increase, which was already equal to the suction.

it is good!
Rhodes cheered up, and activated his biggest trump card [Giant Power].

In an instant, Rhodes felt his whole body swell, unparalleled spiritual energy rose from the depths of his soul, and irresistible power erupted in his body. He clenched his right hand and pulled it back violently.

Bang!
There was a muffled sound that seemed to come from the void.

Rhode's eyes went dark, and before the smile on his face could bloom, he fell into a pure black space.

what?
Rhodes froze for a moment.

what is this?
Where have I been?

Rhodes looked around, and there was nothing but the quiet blackness around him, with no end in sight.

no?Soul crit failed?Am I dead?

But, even if it fails, do I have the resurrection stone?
Why is there no resurrection?
Rhodes tried to run around, but it didn't make any sense. There was no starting point or end point in sight.

He immediately communicated with the dream, and to his relief, the dream was normal.

But soon, Rhodes found something abnormal again.

In the dream, no matter it was the book of knowledge, the book of the future, the puppet, or Asa, they all stood still, no matter what he said or did, there was no response to him.

Rhode's heart sank to the bottom of the sea.

What exactly is going on?

Am I in a nightmare?
Just when he was extremely confused, the voice of the puppet suddenly echoed in Rhodes' soul.

"Lord, master, is that you?"

Rhodes was very pleasantly surprised, and immediately replied: "It's me, I seem to have entered a false space, what's going on here?"

But the puppet didn't answer. After Rhodes asked several times, it slowly replied: "Yes, it's me. Please don't speak so fast, I can't hear you clearly."

The puppet's speech is extremely slow and very confused, just like the old man with dementia.

Rhode waited patiently for it to finish playing before slowing down and asking slowly, "Where am I now? What happened?"

The puppet replied word by word: "You are in your soul space, your situation is very special, your will has been accelerated tens of thousands of times, so, in your view, we seem to be static."

"Tens of thousands of times?"

Rhodes' surprise was no small matter.

"Then how did you react?"

The puppet replied: "Master, my combat reflexes are very fast. I just felt something swaying in the dream. This is not a normal situation, so I immediately entered the combat state and heard your strange voice. Realizing that your state is not correct, I used 1 point of divinity to strengthen myself, so I could barely keep up with your speed and communicate with you."

Rhodes was surprised and sighed, he didn't expect the puppet to be so reliable at the critical moment.

"As expected of you, Afro, what should I do now? Should I go back to the dreamland first?"

The puppet replied slowly: "No...Master, your state is very special. Every moment you leave the soul space, it will put great pressure on your soul. Please don't leave this special space."

Rhodes asked anxiously, "Then how do I get out?"

"Don't worry, master, there must be a way out."

He said he was not in a hurry, but how could Rhodes not be in a hurry, at the critical moment of the lore, he actually ran to such a ghostly place.

If the chance to kill with one blow is missed, the dark twisted vision possesses a soul and successfully evolves into a monster, the consequences will be unimaginable.

But it's useless to be anxious now, Rhodes can only force himself to calm down, sort out his thoughts, and slowly ask: "Avro, how did I get in, do you know?"

The puppet replied: "I can only guess that this is the special ability of the soul in contact with you. It touched this ability at the moment it was killed by you and dragged you into this soul space. kill you in the space, then it can reverse its mortal fate."

Rhodes understood in an instant that it must be the soul of the dark and distorted vision.

It was unwilling to die like this, so it used this method.

This could be one of its or the tainted artifact's abilities.

But how are you going to kill me?

According to the description of the puppet, this state certainly cannot last for too long.

Rhode looked around, and suddenly, he saw a phantom slowly emerging from the air.

It is wearing a dark blue armor, a cloak, a long sword and a wedge-shaped shield in its hand. It is dressed in the standard fighting star knight, the only difference is that its fighting star logo is burning.

Rhodes looked at it vigilantly, and suddenly noticed that its physique was very similar to the corpse in the cave.

After a closer look, not only do they resemble each other, but they are exactly the same.

This is the Knight Commander?
Rhodes thought.

Phantom didn't move, just stood there as if waiting for something.

Rhodes noticed that it was gradually solidifying, and instantly realized that it was waiting to resonate with the trajectory of the past.

So what am I waiting for?
Rhodes cursed himself secretly, stepped forward, and rushed over like lightning. At the same time, starlight flashed on his finger, and a super star shuttle was rapidly condensing.
