the last king of darkness

Chapter 480 The Voice of Perdition (Two in One)

The dry palm of the main star priest pinched Rhodes' neck, and the heavy spirit made him unable to breathe.

He tried to struggle, but the hands of the main star priest were as immovable as fine steel.

Rhodes knew it was going to be bad, he had used up his resurrection stone, and he hadn't had time to prepare a new one, so he had to use another hole card.

With a flash of thought, the "Immortal Spirit" instantly appeared in the palm of his hand.

But before he could use it, the main star priest suddenly let him go.

"Captain Eric, you are finally here."

A distorted and muddy voice came out of his mouth.

"Let's fight side by side. The defense line of the star is broken, the stars are dim, and the strangeness in the black mist of the deep source is eroding our kingdom. My eyes are blind and I have no companions around me. I hope you can turn into starlight and guide me." my sword."

This change was so sudden that Rhodes didn't come back to his senses for a while.

The staff in the hands of the main star priest had already been lifted up, the super gravity collapsed the space, and the light was distorted, surrounding them.

Infinite spiritual energy gathers at the tip of the staff, and any direction that terrifying power points will only bring destruction.

Rhodes' thoughts flashed, and he regained his sanity as quickly as possible.

For some reason, the main star priest regarded him as "Captain Eric".

He might be the head of the Fighting Star Knights, who died in the Scar of Death Canyon because of fighting against the unspeakable horror.

The Fighting Star Knights were also destroyed there.

Rhodes found the leader's body, killed the ghosts of the past wandering in the canyon, eliminated the distorted dark vision caused by the erosion of the demi-artifact, and thus obtained an unknown ball and a ghost of the past blessing of.

Perhaps, it was this blessing that gave him the aura of the head of the Fighting Star Knights, making the chaotic main star priest think that he was his former companion.

Complicated thoughts passed in a flash, and Rhodes responded immediately.

"there!"

Rhode deliberately switched to Starry Language, and imitated the tone and tone of the head of the Fighting Star Knights.

When killing his ghost, Rhodes had heard his voice and seen the memories of the past.

And he himself is very good at imitating, this voice has at least nine images.

The blurred face of the main star priest instantly turned towards the direction Rhodes was pointing at, and the dark purple staff made of pure star marrow pressed down.

"Great Desolation Starfall!"

The terrifying psionic roar resounded through Starry Sky City.

In an instant, the meteorites all over the sky changed direction and fell towards a large mass of darkness coming from a distance.

Does this work too?
Rhodes' eyes widened, his heart beating wildly.

Is it really successful?
He realized in an instant that this was a great opportunity.

The huge turmoil just now had already dissipated in Starry Sky City. In mid-air, Rhodes clearly saw through the eyes of the soul that there was a tide of darkness coming from all directions.

Especially behind them, the black water has overflowed the area they walked through, and is spreading towards the Great Lake.

And in the depths of the black water, there is still a deeper darkness spreading.

There is no doubt that it is the black mist of the source, the original black mist.

It passed through the remaining ashes of the monster, and passed through the evaporating broken corpses, so the monster that was killed stood up again in such a black mist, and decayed into a black mist symbiosis at an astonishing speed.

In that piece of black tide, there are countless such black mist symbiosis.

Although the new black mist symbionts are not that powerful, they are more numerous.

In other directions, due to the huge disturbance from the inverted stone of silence, many wandering monsters used it in groups, and the powerful black mist symbiosis in other areas also flocked here.

The crisis was quietly approaching, if Rhodes wasn't in the air, he wouldn't be able to see so far.

Their situation is actually far worse than imagined.

And now, it is an excellent opportunity.

Rhode pointed to the rear decisively, and the main star priest also launched an attack decisively.

The bolide seems to be far away, but it actually landed on the earth in just a few seconds.

A meteorite hit the center of the Kuroshio, and the black water splashed several hundred yards high, extinguishing and swallowing the bolide.

But in the next moment, countless meteors fell, the entire starry sky city trembled, black water shot up into the sky, monsters were smashed into pieces amidst howls, and the rising black dust almost covered half of the sky.

When the meteor shower ended, the black water had disappeared without a trace, the source of the black mist receded thousands of yards, there were fragments of monster limbs all over the place, and black dust rose everywhere. On the ground solidified by spiritual energy, countless Potholes.

This weird change stunned everyone.

No one can clearly know what happened above, under the super-strong gravitational field, the shining aura obscures everything.

Rovia, Geraba, and Olivia exchanged glances.

The three tacitly did not raise their psionic energy and remained silent.

Horus used the Stone of Silence to firmly envelop everyone in the field of silence, eliminating disturbances as much as possible.

In the sky.

The main star priest spoke again.

"Captain Eric, the Starry Kingdom is at stake. We are the last human beings, and we bear the hope of rekindling the fire of civilization. We must not fail... Godouin cannot extinguish the light of the stars because of the strange existence behind the sacred mountain. Tell me, The direction of the enemy, even if I am the only one left, I will block the black mist from Starry Sky City!"

Rhodes pointed forward again.

"This way."

He tried his best to use concise words so as not to stimulate the chaotic consciousness of the main star priest.

Whether he regained his sobriety or went to another chaos, it was a very bad thing.

Maintaining the status quo is best.

The Priest of the Main Star once again pointed the staff in the direction Rhodes said, and infinite aura erupted from the purple staff. This spiritual energy was so powerful that Rhodes had never seen it before, and even the Great Demon God could not compare with it.

The only thing that made him feel a little strange was that although the psychic energy was extremely powerful, judging from the psychic energy waveform, its absolute psychic energy strength was still at the fifteenth level.

Distracting thoughts flashed away, this time, Rhodes witnessed the process of the meteorite being produced with his own eyes.

Countless meteorites appeared from the spirit world and came upon summoning, spreading across the sky in just a few seconds.

The fiery red light covered the black mist, and the long trail crossed the sky and fell into the starry sky city.

Another monster was reduced to ashes amidst the soaring flames and huge shocks.

Rhodes noticed that the huge disturbance caused by the meteorite's landing was quietly being weakened, which seemed to be the work of Horus.

After two blows, most of the monsters had been reduced to ashes, and the monsters in the adjacent area were basically emptied, even the Avenue of Stars was quite empty.

The main star priest asked: "Captain Eric, why can't I feel the breath of the dark demon? Where did it go?"

Rhode's heart sank, this question is not easy to answer.

With a flash of thought in his mind, he quickly searched for all relevant information in his memory, and answered cautiously: "The battle of Huishan has been won."

"Great."

"The Dark Demon was killed by the Fighting Star Knights. I knew that Captain Eric had mastered the mysteries of the stars. Maybe after the battle, he could try to step into the king's realm."

"Becoming a king-level force is the first step to saving the world."

The priest of the main star didn't seem to realize that Captain Eric was by his side. His consciousness was completely confused, immersed in the memory of the past, erratic.

This is a unique phenomenon related to the Starry Kingdom, and no monster has ever been able to retain human memory, and even a completely chaotic mind.

"Eric's talent is very high. If he hadn't been so addicted to talking with your lady, he would have been able to go further. If we can produce another true king, this doomsday disaster may not bring such a big disaster. Loss."

"But no matter how strong the black mist is, we will eventually stand up in the face of adversity and be resurrected in despair. Star City will never fall. I am Astraeus, the priest of the main star, and I will guard the king city until I die! "

"Long live the stars!"

There was a violent vibration from the psychic energy, and Rhodes hurriedly pointed out the direction again in Star Language.

This time, the invisible gravitational field fell from the sky, crushing all the monsters in the field into a ball, the corpses cracked, the bones were broken, and the black mist shot out from the big ball like blood.

In an instant, hundreds of monsters died.

Rovia and the others below were all stunned.

Rovia said in a very small voice: "The main star priest, was at least a king-level combat power in life, right?"

Olivia replied with the same small voice: "There is nothing wrong, it must be, he has already taken half a step forward from the Herrscher, and stepped into the realm of the king."

"Wang, how does it compare to him?"

"Of course it's not as good as the king, but it's incredible that the main star priests have reached this point with their own strength. The fact that a king-level other than the holy fire can appear in the kingdom of stars shows that their power far exceeds that of Trorian. The gap between us is bigger than imagined."

Geraba said in a deep voice: "Fortunately, we didn't choose a plan to fight him. A fallen man who is a king in front of him must also be a king."

They tacitly did not use psychic communication, the disturbance of psychic energy is very sensitive, on the contrary, the disturbance of sound is much smaller.

In front of a very powerful monster, it is the best way to communicate in a normal way.

"Why can Rhodes command that monster? Did Mephis use mental interference?"

"Impossible. Mental interference cannot affect king-level monsters. The powerful source law will cut off all external interference by itself... Otherwise, Mephis will not be treated like this."

Rovia was silent for a few seconds.

This is a fact. For Wangcheng, the core factor that really restricts their expansion is the king-level monster.

If Memphis can control the king monster, then her value far outweighs the risks posed by her guilt and the "son of destruction" prophecy.

"why?"

"Maybe there is some reason we don't know, maybe it is really like some people in the royal city guessed, Rhodes is the reborn soul of a powerful ancient god, that piece of soul must be very big, except for Alan, I have never I've seen people like this."

"But the White Tower has denied this possibility. Rhode's soul is a normal soul, without fragments of gods."

Rovia pondered: "The White Tower may not be accurate either. Meredith once predicted that I would swear an oath of fire with Olivia and give birth to a fat boy. Isn't this a failure?"

Olivia sneered and said, "Stop dreaming, barbarian, even if I have sex with Rhodes, I won't have sex with you."

Rovia shifted his gaze to Geraba, and signaled with his eyes: "Look!"

Geraba ignored him, and said: "This is our once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I read a saying in ancient books that when humans rise, there are usually various unusual things, all kinds of incredible victories, and all kinds of opportunities. It is an unexplainable coincidence, as if there is a supreme power helping us."

He paused.

"I think we're in that period."

"The appearance of the king, the rise of Alan, the shining of many new stars, the occurrence of miracles, etc., all of these illustrate this point."

"This mission may be unexpectedly smooth."

The eyes of Rovia and Olivia gradually shone.

"Yes."

Rovia said with certainty.

"I feel like this, maybe, our generation will start the road to the rise of mankind."

Olivia also smiled.

"Yes, it may not be as difficult as we imagined, just like it is now."

Geraba didn't answer, he looked up at the sky, saw the large whirling white light, and prayed silently in his heart.

Yes, I hope everything goes as smoothly as imagined.

-

sky.

After the main star priest once again wiped out all the monsters in one direction, Rhodes was already thinking about how to use him to fight the star queen.

Of course, this is a bit difficult and there are too many variables, but at least it can break the barrier of the sacred fire sacrificial field, right?
Rhodes watched anxiously as the main star priest retracted his staff. In the dazzling white light, his face was somewhat blurred, but he could still see his mummy-like face, two shriveled eye holes, and incomplete teeth.

His soul was chaotic and powerful, and the overpowering psionic energy prevented Rhodes from observing the inside of the soul more deeply.

Suddenly, violent fluctuations appeared in his soul again.

Rhodes knew that he was going to speak again.

But this time, there was no growling, just an eerie mumbling.

"Dead, all dead... The black mist is too powerful, and the weird existence is invincible. Starry Sky City, Starry Sky City will not be able to defend."

Although there was no expression, the deep sorrow and despair in the voice were extremely clear.

At this moment, Rhodes didn't feel that he was a powerful main star priest, but an ordinary old man.

"Pollution... The black mist of the source has crossed the barrier of Starry Sky City..."

"We, we are finished, the stars will go out, Star City will become another horrible black tomb... No no, we still have hope, Alphonse fled, he took our last strength, with millions The people have successfully escaped, and he will grow stronger, just like the original Starry Kingdom, and the fire will be rekindled to illuminate this world, are you right? Eric."

Rhode's heart sank, he knew clearly that Alphonse was obviously referring to the big star priest below the Ridge of Death.

The reason why the Ridge of Death is called the Ridge of Death is because there is a strong and persistent breath of death gathered there.

The last team to escape from the Kingdom of Stars was wiped out there.

The big star priest talking to himself is the same as the main star priest in front of him.

They have no hope.

The fire of the stars has been completely extinguished.

"Yes." Rhodes replied in a very small voice.

"It sure is."

The main star priest waved his staff and danced a crazy dance.

"Where did they flee to? They must have crossed the Dead Ember Mountains, right? I heard that further south, there will be an excellent terrain and an ancient royal city that existed in the age of giants. They must have taken root there and regrown, right?"

Logically speaking, Rhodes should obey his words and follow his imagination.

But for some reason, Rhodes suddenly had a strange intuition, a strange emotion, which made the words he spit out change.

"No, they didn't cross the Dead Ember Mountains."

The dance of the main star priest stopped, staring blankly into the distance, the spiritual energy in the empty eye sockets flickered rapidly, as if he had encountered some kind of unsolvable problem.

below.

Rovia exclaimed: "What happened? Such a strong change!"

Olivia didn't care to lower her voice, and shouted: "The soul of the priest of the main star is rioting! Prepare to fight! Prepare to fight!"

Geraba looked up at the sky, feeling the power emanating from the heavy soul in the violent fluctuations, and murmured: "Rod, what are you doing?"

"you……"

The voice of the main star priest became low and hollow, with an indescribably terrifying noise, appearing distorted and strange.

"……say what?"

Rhodes said firmly and clearly: "Alphonse failed to escape from this area, and an unknown terrifying existence caught up with them. This last escaped team is at the Death Ridge, hundreds of thousands of yards away from Starry Sky City. The army was wiped out, all the great star priests were killed in battle, and millions of people were buried on the ground, and because of too many deaths, a large number of undead monsters were born there."

The air was vibrating, and the flashing psionic energy and unstable soul even affected the spirit world.

"What did you say?"

The main star priest repeated his previous words.

Rhodes said word by word: "The Kingdom of Stars has perished."

boom!
It was as if an earthquake had occurred in the void, and the space appeared to bend visible to the naked eye under the huge pressure, and the super-strong gravity field wrapped Rhodes' soul like a ball.

"What did you say?"

The main star priest's eyes burst into an astonishing red light, and terrifying spiritual energy hit his face like a mountain.

"No, this is a phantom. The phantom is affecting my spirit. This is an illusion! This is a lie! You are not Eric, and Eric is on his way to triumph..."

Rhodes decisively pinched the undead spirit, gaining the effect of being immortal for 30 seconds.

Bang!
With a muffled sound, the super gravity broke Rhode's spiritual defense.

Rhode's bones snapped, blood spurted out, his body was kneaded into a ball like a clay figurine, his internal organs were squeezed out, and his bones were crushed.

But in the next second, Rhodes returned to his original state.

The undead spirit refreshes every second, reincarnating Rhodes from the dead.

But the terrifying gravity killed him in an instant, his internal organs were squeezed into a ball, drowned by the overflowing blood, the gravity quickly precipitated the impurities in the blood, making it extremely clear.

Liquids are more difficult to compress than solids, but the gravity of the main star priest is too strong, the blood gradually shrinks in the overweight, and becomes solid again, like a crystal ruby, sealing the twisted flesh and blood internal organs.

But in the next second, like an illusion, Rhodes was reborn again.

he yelled the moment gravity recaptured him and killed him.

"The Star Knights are completely wiped out!"

"The Black Mist Demon shatters the ground with one blow!"

"Eric was seriously injured and died, and no one from the Fighting Star Knights survived!"

It took Rhodes 25 seconds to complete these three sentences.

the last five seconds.

Rhodes shouted with all his strength: "Starry Sky City has already fallen, and Starry Kingdom has perished!"

boom!
There was a long whine, like the whistle of a sea ship.

The gravitational field then dissipated.

The space returned to calm.

The power of the main star priest's whole body was dissipating, and his body turned into a little fly ash, which flew into the air.

"The Kingdom of Stars, is it dead?"

Rhodes replied word by word: "The Starry Kingdom has been destroyed for 500 years."

The terrifying power of the main star priest disappeared, replaced by a kind of hopeless calm. His soul was no longer crazy and chaotic, but it continued to dissipate.

"One thousand and six hundred years..."

The main star priest murmured, his voice was no longer distorted, there was no weird noise, just like an ordinary normal person.

He looked around, and his empty eye sockets seemed to see the current scene of Starry Sky City.

It was dilapidated, desolate, and silent, with damaged buildings everywhere, and monsters wandering aimlessly among the ruins.

A large piece of dry flesh fell off his face, flying into the air and turning into powder.

He wanted to cover his face, but he was at a loss when he saw the withered hands.

There were no tears in the eye sockets, only black rotten matter, blown away by the wind.

"...everything we guarded has turned to dust."

"Our hope is not worth mentioning in front of the real black mist and weird existence."

The main star priest wanted to turn his head, but his neck bones had been shattered and his body had been disintegrated.

"You, who are you?"

Rhodes quickly replied: "We are from Trorian, and our purpose is to obtain the Seed of the Holy Fire from Starry Sky City."

Although the face of the main star priest had cracked, Rhodes could feel the complicated changes in his emotions.

"Yes, is it? We perished, but human beings continue!"

"The fire hasn't gone out, we haven't lost yet!"

The tone of the main star priest suddenly became urgent.

"Latecomers, my time is running out. The power of the source star is almost exhausted. Her Majesty has exhausted the last star source... There is no king among you... You may face an unprecedented test..."

Rhodes asked anxiously: "Can you assist us?"

"No, no, I am an existence that cannot be tolerated in the world. When I regain my senses, I am destined to disappear... I will use my last strength to give you the blessings of the stars. I hope that you will pass on the torch forever and reappear as a human being." splendor."

The main star priest raised his staff, and in an instant, infinite starlight fell from the sky and attached to everyone.

Rhodes was even more surrounded by starlight.

"Latecomers, please remember that there used to be a human kingdom here called Fanxing, and the kingdom was full of passionate warriors who once fought for mankind."

After the words fell, the main star priest turned into ashes and completely dissipated in the air.

With a clang, his staff fell to the ground.

The robe fluttered down from the air, as if it had lost its owner, it split into countless pieces and fell down one after another.

Like the flowers sprinkled on the gravestone.
