the last king of darkness

Chapter 479
With a flash of Rovia's figure, he came to Mephis in an instant, the flames in his right hand soared, and the rotating flames gathered in his palm.

"What's going on here? Are you really a doomsday cultist?"

Rhodes shouted anxiously: "No, it's not her!"

Rovia remained motionless, staring directly at Memphis, as long as she moved slightly, her right hand would be chopped off.

But the next moment, Geraba spoke.

"Not her."

The flame in Rovia's palm went out immediately, and in a flash, he returned to Geraba.

"what happened?"

Geraba said in a deep voice: "The archbishop's soul has strong distortion marks. Something has forcibly interfered with his will, but the strange thing is that when I checked the source, I found that the source of the interference was actually his own soul."

"He seems to have some kind of weird schizophrenia. The strong distortion marks are the result of the confrontation between his own consciousness and consciousness. The intensity of this confrontation is so high that it even left burning marks in his soul."

Olivia wrapped Horus in moonlight, and carefully poured several recovery potions that shone with purple luster into his mouth.

Accompanied by the strong spiritual light, Horus' complexion looked much better, and his turbulent soul stabilized.

Only then did everyone let go of their hanging hearts.

Archbishop Horus is the key to the team. He is not only responsible for shielding disturbances, but also for healing and purifying wounded warriors.

His existence is the backing of everyone.

No one believed that the Archbishop would rebel, that was impossible.

Everyone looked at Geraba, only to hear him continue.

"After I checked further, I found that there are many such interferences, but the traces left are quite small."

"So, it can be inferred that such a thing happened more than once."

Rowell's heart moved, and everything was connected in an instant.

It turned out that the person who influenced the battlefield outside the starry sky city, attracted the giant Sith brain, and interfered with the main brain was the Archbishop.

The person who draws black water, disturbs monsters, and creates disasters is also the Archbishop.

The doomsday cultist they've been looking for is actually Horus.

This is actually very easy to think of.

There are not many people who can do this without a sound.

Horus, holding the Stone of Silence, is almost the only candidate.

It's just that this inference is so unbelievable that everyone subconsciously avoided this option.

In this way, the absurd inference that "the doomsday cultists can remotely control and penetrate the barriers of the starry sky city" came into being. How could the doomsday cultists get another "Book of Destiny" when they were strictly guarded against death by the king city? What about the demi-artifacts of the same personality?

However, Horus was not the real betrayer, the evil spirit in the Holy Grail of Soul told him bluntly that there were no doomsday believers here.

Rovia gritted his teeth at the thought of its weird laugh.

The ghast definitely knew something and laughed like that.

It's just that I asked the wrong question and let it take advantage of the loophole.

"I must melt it completely!" Rovia thought viciously, pinching sparks out of his fingers.

"But..." After thinking for a moment, Olivia asked softly, "Why did this happen? Is Your Excellency the Archbishop cursed?"

Geraba shook his head slightly: "I don't know, maybe, we should ask another person."

Olivia waved her hand, and a beam of moonlight pierced through the sky, carrying Mephis over.

"Hello, Mephis the Unknown."

Geraba said calmly.

"It's a pity to use this title to call you again, but this is the requirement of the Silver Oath. They said that the curse of Ni has expired and the seal has basically been lifted. If it wasn't for the request of the king and Horus, Alan's important suggestion, and Rhodes' Strong demand, they can't let you go."

"But they also demand that the name 'Unknown' must be imprinted on your soul, reminding everyone of what you are."

Mephis' eyes were ice-cold, and he said lightly: "I know, they are not reconciled to me being out of control, and they have lifted the seal in a disguised form. They want to crucify my soul again in an ancient way. When countless consciousnesses think you are When something happens, your existence will change accordingly."

Geraba nodded: "There is no way, you are too special, and your treatment as a taboo will not change until the teaching plan is completely over, but I still agree that you are our compatriots, and I am honored by you today." Thank you for what you did."

Memphis looked indifferent and did not answer.

Rovia said impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, Geraba, we don't have much time."

Geraba's eyes fixed on Memphis.

"Then, please explain in detail what happened, and don't miss any details. This involves the archbishop and the entire Trorian. I hope you can understand."

Memphis' expression didn't change, he was still indifferent and indifferent.

"The soul of Archbishop Horus has undergone a strange change. Some kind of existence has replaced part of his soul. The essence of the soul has not changed, but the will of the spirit has been tampered with. It is assimilating Horus. This change is subtle. Yes, nothing can detect it, if it doesn't burst out suddenly now, after a while, Horus will completely change and become another personality, even if he has Horus' soul, memory, will, and is no longer Horus It's gone."

After the words fell, everyone felt a chill rise from behind.

Rhodes on the side was even more creepy.

If you can change a person like this, where is your original self?

More importantly, when will this change happen to me, and I will no longer be myself?
Everyone had similar associations, and before they knew it, everyone was a little farther away from Memphis, and a circle around her suddenly became empty, which instead made Rhodes standing in the corner protrude.

Mephis' eyes were fixed on him for a moment, and then he withdrew like a superficial, no one noticed.

"I interfered with his spirit, helped his main consciousness, and regained control of his body."

There was no sound all around, Geraba was silent for a moment, and asked: "Why can you control him so easily?"

"His spirit is in internal friction, without any resistance. The other part of consciousness is far from my opponent. It frantically wants to control this body, and it has exhausted its strength."

Olivia asked coldly: "Mephis, what evidence do you have to prove that what you said was not fabricated by you?"

Memphis didn't answer.

The eyes of many people changed all of a sudden, and Rhodes thumped in his heart, knowing that if he followed what Olivia said, Mephis would be the mastermind behind the scenes.

Fortunately, Geraba rescued her in time.

"Mephis' mental interference is different. I can trace it back to the source through subtle psionic operations."

Olivia snorted coldly and didn't speak again. Rhodes knew that she hated Memphis very much, but the reason was not clear. Maybe Memphis had said that it had something to do with causing heavy losses to the Royal City.

Rovia asked in a deep voice: "Can the source of all this be found?"

Geraba shook his head: "It's hard to trace back, but I'm basically sure it's the sect of the Adventist. Maybe after I go back, I can re-interrogate the suspects who have been detained, and I can get new clues."

Rovia looked at him with a very serious expression.

"What about Memphis?"

"Deal with it?" Geraba was stunned for a moment.

Rovia said directly: "Her mental interference is an unstable factor in the team. Without a strong will, it is extremely difficult to fight against. In many cases, she can influence you unconsciously. Although there is no evidence now, it cannot be ignored. Defend."

"Also, I remember that mental interference is a forbidden characteristic. She blatantly violated the prohibition and unsealed the seal of the forbidden characteristic. You should be very clear about the crime."

He glanced at Memphis.

"I really don't understand why the Silver Oath sent her out, and why the king agreed to this matter."

Geraba was silent, and for the first time there was a tangled expression on his rough face.

Memphis looked calm, with no sadness or joy on his face, as if he was already used to such things.

Rhodes frowned, and raised his voice and said, "I let her use it. As the leader of the Black Battlegroup, I have the right to order the fighters in the battlegroup to use their own power."

Rovia nodded: "This is your credit, we will remember it."

Rhode said anxiously: "It's not mine, it's hers."

Rovia just shook his head: "Rhode, you still don't understand..."

"Do not."

Geraba said suddenly.

"Mephis is our companion. She just helped us avoid a terrible disaster. I think it is the best choice for her to continue fighting as our comrade. Since Wang agrees to her joining the battle of Star City, there is no need to be afraid of her. identity of."

He turned around and said seriously.

"Mephis, as the son of fire, I inform you that you can lift all restraints, seals, restrictions and curses, and fight with all your strength, regardless of whether it is taboo or not. , we will all be treated equally.”

Memphis was surprised for the first time, and she asked softly, "Your Excellency Geraba, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Sure, the Son of Fire never lies."

There was a flash of light in Memphis' eyes, and he didn't speak any more.

Rovia glanced at her: "Since Geraba said so, then do as he said, but, you have to be careful, I will keep an eye on you, and if you make any changes, the curse fire will kill you." You burn to ashes."

Mephis didn't answer, and she wasn't affected by his words, she was always like this, like an ice sculpture, without emotion.

Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were some twists and turns, the matter was finally resolved perfectly.

Afterwards, everyone quickly cleaned the battlefield, drank the potion, and briefly treated their injuries before preparing to go on the road.

Liszt told them that in the second half of the Avenue of Stars, there were not many threats, and the main threat, the Great Demon God, had already been killed.

It can be said that this time, what they encountered was not necessarily a disaster, but a blessing in disguise.

An unstable factor was also removed. Another consciousness of Archbishop Horus must have noticed that they were about to succeed, so he jumped over the wall and desperately tried to stop them.

Judging from his deep-seated hatred for Rhodes, it may be someone Rhodes once knew, a maggot who was influenced by him and fell into bad luck.

With this clue, the investigation will have a direction after returning to Wangcheng, and maybe a large number of traitors will be dug out soon.

What is even more gratifying is that Horus woke up soon.

His mind is normal, his consciousness is not disturbed, and other than fatigue, there is no particularly serious injury.

Horus quickly healed his own injuries, and the "bright light" characteristic can be used on himself, and because it is more convenient to operate his own soul, there is no situation where the healer does not heal himself.

He also found a lesion from his soul—a black shadow wriggling in his palm, as if alive.

When exposed to fire, it quickly burned to ashes, and its small wail could be heard in the air.

"What is this?" Even the well-informed Rovia didn't recognize it.

Instead, Rhodes gave the answer: "The brain worm is a derivative of the destruction of the soul body. It is not it that affects the soul... Fortunately, after it is separated, it can show that the soul has recovered."

"how do you know?"

Rhodes pointed to his head: "My wisdom told me."

Rovia thought he was praising his memory, and said lightly: "The things in the big library may not be completely accurate..."

"No, Rovia."

Horus interrupted him.

"I could feel that dark feeling disappearing, and my soul seemed to be liberated from the dank dungeon."

Everyone smiled, and Geraba said happily, "That's great."

If there is no archbishop, the subsequent battles will be very troublesome. The Stone of Silence requires very precise psionic manipulation, and only Horus is the most suitable candidate.

Horus has no memory of what happened just now, but he can feel the anxiety.

It was a severe torment from the depths of his heart, as if something terrifying was waiting for him.

Geraba recounted in detail what happened just now.

After listening, Horus was silent for a long time, and sighed: "I'm sorry everyone. Thinking about it carefully, some time ago, I lost part of my memory. This is a very suspicious thing, and I didn't notice it."

Geraba asked: "Your Excellency, Archbishop, can you recall when the loss of memory began?"

"Start from Xinghuan Town."

Geraba nodded: "There are two possibilities. One is that he was cursed by the doomsday believers at that time, and the other is that he was recruited earlier, but the abnormality did not appear until Xinghuan Town."

Horus' face turned very gray.

This was an indelible shame for him as the archbishop, but now was not the time to feel sorry for himself, they were about to enter the most critical battle.

Before that, there was one thing left for them, and that was to kill the dark stars wandering below.

Everyone set up a battle formation, preparing to use the strongest attack in the shortest time to destroy it in one go.

No one noticed that Rhodes in the corner was extremely anxious, and he couldn't cancel the call of the dark stars.

According to the function of "soul ashes", Rhodes can directly dissipate the summoned object when it is not needed.

However, although he can control the Dark Stars now, he cannot disband it.

"How is this going?"

Rhodes was sweating profusely, and asked anxiously in his mind: "Book, speak up."

The Book of Knowledge also felt incomprehensible: "How is this possible? How could something happen to the creation of the dream? Could it be that the taboo did something secretly?"

Before Rhodes could speak, it denied what it said.

"No, it's impossible, no one can change the dream creation... Aphrodite, do you see anything?"

The expression of the puppet looked very dignified: "Master, I feel that the darkness and stars cannot be dissipated, but something has locked it. I have a very uneasy feeling..."

Rhodes frowned, and before he could speak, he heard a loud shout.

"Everyone, take cover at once! The first hour of noon is here!"

Rhode's heart trembled, and before he had time to think, he took Mephis and quickly hid in a small pit.

Tens of seconds later, the huge roar came as promised.

"The stars are immortal!"

But the next sound didn't come on time, and the roar suddenly became intense!
"Invasion! Invasion! Invasion!"

"Dark undead, evil stars, the cause of all disasters, I will destroy you in the name of eternal stars!"

boom!
boom!
boom!
Terrifying tides came from the sky, Rhodes felt the earth tremble, the air trembled, the world seemed to be split, and everything was falling.

An extremely strong light broke through the black fog and shot from an invisible distance.

Dark Fanxing's skeleton shell, which had been hammered by the five Great Demon Gods for a long time and had not completely shattered, was pierced by the strong light in an instant, and then exploded into pieces.

A line of words appeared in Rhodes' eyes.

"The soul summoner, the dark stars are destroyed."

what?
Before Rhodes could turn his thoughts around, he felt an extremely colossal existence coming through the air with infinite momentum.

That feeling is like a giant mountain flying in the sky.

Liszt screamed: "It's not good! It's the priest of the main star, the priest of the main star was alarmed! He's coming!"

Everyone's face turned bad.

"Why is this happening?" Olivia asked with a livid face. The main star priest is a king-level existence. It is extremely irrational to fight a king-level monster here.

Geraba lifted the sledgehammer and stood up from behind the cover.

"It should be because of the dark stars, it is a very taboo enemy of the Starry Kingdom."

"The Kingdom of Stars believes in the stars, and firmly believes that everything is a part of the stars, and the dark stars are the dead souls of the stars. This is unacceptable in their belief."

"Get ready for battle, it's coming!"

The roar of the air approached from far away, and an existence far surpassing the Great Demon God was approaching them at a terrifying speed.

"Destroy, destroy, destroy!"

"The Eternal Stars shall prevail!"

"The Starry Queen is invincible!"

"The kingdom of stars is immortal!"

"Fanxing, grant me victory!"

With every roar, there will be the same ray of light hitting the dark starry position, but it has already been blown into powder and dissipated in the air.

When he yelled the last sentence, everyone saw that in the distance, there was a meteor falling towards them.

"No, more than one!" someone shouted.

Everyone turned their heads, only to find that the sky was full of meteors, countless bolides, with long tails, falling towards them.

The entire sky was covered by the light of meteors, and even the black mist could not be seen.

In the next moment, a tall figure in a gorgeous robe appeared in the air, and super powerful spiritual energy surrounded him, causing the light to be distorted. The space could not bear the pressure and collapsed downward.

He is faceless and holds a staff aloft.

"Intruder! Intruder!"

"I am Astraeus, Priest of the Star! Guardian of the starry kingdom, watcher of the endless night sky, I rage against the fading of light, and strike at the growth of shadows. Those who thirst for our blood will eventually die under my stars." Under the force, annihilation!"

boom!
The aura on the tip of the stick overwhelmed everyone in an instant!

The space collapsed sharply, and the huge gravity instantly pulled Rhodes up.

"You are the first!"

Snapped!
