the last king of darkness

Chapter 486 The Strange Shadow
The black shadow erupted into a sharp roar, and more source of black mist poured out from the ground, quickly sinking into the black shadow.

It wriggled frantically, trying to reintegrate itself.

The holy fire sacrificial field made a strange roar, and countless black mist swept from all directions, filling the cracks frantically.

The pollution in the field also disappeared quickly, and concentrated on the black shadow, trying to wrap the long sword shining like a star.

Everyone was out of trouble, looking in disbelief at the black shadow exuding amazing corrupt power in front of them.

In his mind, the book of knowledge lost his voice: "My God, Starry Sky City... the pollution of the entire Starry Sky City has been concentrated, it is not just the incarnation of black mist...it, it is..."

The black shadow swelled up, and the terrifying darkness was like a rift leading directly to the abyss, from which distorted roars spewed out, and the air made a strange whine, as if the whole world was rapidly falling into the abyss.

But even so, it couldn't cover the shining star sword.

Its light broke through the black mist, trying to tear open a bigger gap.

"Attack!" Theodore's voice appeared again.

Geraba suddenly came to his senses and shouted anxiously: "Concentrate your strength and attack!"

Rovia also realized something, and yelled: "Overdrawing spiritual power! Attack with all your strength!"

He frantically waved his hands, throwing the balls of cursed fire one after another onto the shadow.

Followed by Olivia's moonlight, Geraba's giant hammer, Misha's lightning, and all the guardians' full blows.

Theodore did not use powerful spells anymore, but just waved his staff to provide blessings and enhancements for everyone.

Whoa!

After a strange sound, a long gap was torn open in the black shadow, and thousands of stars burst out from the gap, and the bright light flooded the sky and the earth.

The black shadow let out a stern roar, but it still couldn't stop being torn into pieces by the starlight.

There was a strange vibration in the space, and black dust rose up everywhere, covering everything.

That terrifying existence is melting in perception, its structure has been defeated, the source of black mist that composes its existence is unquantified, and the source returns to the void.

The too violent inquantification impacted the space, black ripples bloomed in the spiritual world, and the most powerful darkness in history was falling to the bottom of the world.

Won?

This incredible idea appeared in everyone's mind.

The Star Queen was so powerful that for a moment they could not believe that they could achieve victory.

But the appearance of black dust and the occurrence of "unquantified" all prove the death of the monster.

"Won!"

Rovia finally spit out these two words.

"We won! We defeated the Star Queen!"

However, in the next instant, an invisible ripple spread out, and everyone was surprised to find that their movements slowed down.

"Time slows down!"

Geraba reacted immediately.

"This is the power of the stars, the Queen of Stars is not dead!"

"Thank you." A crisp voice shattered the despair brought about by this heavy news.

Only then did everyone see that in the center of the black dust, a ball of starlight was elongating, and a vague figure was forming. She was composed of the light of stars, deep and brilliant.

"nice to meet you."

Theodore bowed slightly, the slowness of time had no effect on him.

"Queen of Stars."

Everyone was stunned by this title. Is that blurred figure the soul of the Starry Queen?

"Ah, how many years..."

The indistinct figure let out a long breath, and her voice was light and ethereal, with a touch of sadness and nostalgia.

"Time passes, years change, glory and prosperity turn to ashes, stars also become dim, blood, sacrifice, and faith become nothing in an instant."

"Only the black mist is eternal."

There was a lot of disappointment in her voice.

Theodore said gently: "Nevertheless, the fire has not been extinguished, and human beings are still passing on. One thousand and five hundred years after the death of the Starry Kingdom, there are still people who are looking for light."

The blurry figure finally came to his senses and turned his gaze to Rhodes.

"Thank you, latecomers, thank you, great master of spells."

She turned her gaze to the annihilated location of the king's heart.

"And your king, he's amazing."

Rovia tried his best to push his source, struggling to get rid of the influence of slow time, and asked, "You, are you the Queen of Stars?"

The blurred figure smiled sweetly.

"Yes, the queen of stars, the protector of the starry kingdom, the agent of the stars, the human body of the great star god Tasnia, the supreme ruler of the starry sky city, the king under the stars, and the human body of the starry sky." The last monarch, Lena Night Sky."

A shocking storm swept everyone's hearts, and no one thought that they could really talk to the king 500 years ago.

Rovia wanted to speak, but the slowness of time seized him again.

"terribly sorry."

The Starry Queen said slightly apologetically.

"The low-entropy body cannot cross the long river of time. Only the chaotic body is not affected by time in the dead silence. When I recover from the chaos, my existence is an absolute taboo and cannot be tolerated in the world. Only the slowness of time can prolong my existence. "

Her gaze swept across the audience, staying for a moment on everyone's faces.

"I didn't expect that after more than 1000 years, there will still be human beings, the power of fire will continue, and the power that can break the weirdness. This is really great... May I know the name of your royal city?"

Theodore bowed slightly: "Trollian, the city of the Lord of Fire, Trorian."

"Trollian?"

The Starry Queen looked in a trance for a moment.

"It's Trorian, this is Tasnia, the night is full of stars, Tasnia's starry sky city."

There was a hint of sadness in her voice.

"The first destroyed human royal city in the Dark Era, it only lasted 300 years and was destroyed by a strange disaster."

what?
Although everyone couldn't move, they all saw the shock in each other's eyes.

Why is the Kingdom of Stars in the Dark Ages?Isn't it at the end of Age of Fire?

It is written in every history book in Trorian that the fall of the Starry Kingdom represents the beginning of the Dark Age.

Moreover, most scholars believe that the Kingdom of Stars is a powerful human kingdom that has lasted for thousands of years. It can be seen from its prosperity and territory that it would not be possible to grow to such a large size without thousands of years.

But why does the Queen of Stars say it only lasts 300 years?

"Strange disaster..." Theodore chewed on the name and asked softly, "What is it?"

"The disaster that destroyed the Starry Kingdom."

The Star Queen replied calmly.

"The cause is unknown, it originated from Godoin's sacred mountain."

"One day, the terrifying existence of black mist launched an attack on us, abnormal celestial phenomena appeared frequently, various places fell, and the fires were extinguished one after another, but our only hope is the starry sky city."

"Our power comes from the stars, and the stars endow us with the characteristics of the stars. The artifacts made by Xingyuan are extremely powerful, and there is even a real ancient artifact. The daemon engaged and repelled it."

The Star Queen's voice became low.

"Perhaps, Starry Sky City has a chance to hold on...until I am eroded."

Everyone's spirits were highly concentrated. There was no doubt that the Queen of Stars was powerful, not to mention she was guarding the holy fire. What could corrode such a powerful king?
"The Strange Shadow, one of the great horrors in the black mist of the source."

"Its arrival means the destruction of the kingdom. The initial black mist enveloped Starry Sky City. The traitor dug open the sewers and destroyed the defense barrier of Starry Sky City. The black mist of the source spewed out in the city, and the big devil launched an attack. , but their king has been corrupted by the strange shadow."

The Star Queen's voice became mournful.

"I knew we were going to perish. In the last time I kept my saneness, I used the power of the star source to guard the spirit, restrain the power of black mist corrosion, and turn us into a chaotic body between humans and monsters." .”

"I scatter more star sources to protect my warriors from being completely corrupted."

"I also know that the initial darkness will definitely turn Starry Sky City into a hotbed of terror, a source of disaster. It will breed more terror and darker darkness, and the hope of mankind will become even slimmer."

"So, I wrapped the sacred fire sacrificial field with the barrier of the source to prevent the power of darkness from flowing out. The strange shadow was restrained in my body. The sacred fire sacrificial field is its prison, and I am its guardian. For 500 years, only a small part of it has leaked out."

Rhode suddenly realized in his heart, no wonder there are so many black mist symbionts in Starry Sky City, it turns out that they are all part of the Queen of Stars.

No wonder they were able to enter from the sewer, it turned out that the traitors dug the barrier from the inside.

That black shadow must be the strange shadow she mentioned.

The Queen of Stars said softly: "You are very wise. Because the strange shadow is close to the state of symbiosis with me, it has a part of wisdom. Your king quickly discovered the abnormality. The power of fire penetrated the shadow and awakened me. Spirits, weirdness can be killed by us."

It was so!
Rhode suddenly realized.

The two weird freezes of the Starry Queen turned out to be her spirit resisting.

No wonder the king would signal me with his eyes.

The Starry Queen paused for a moment, then continued.

"However, the strange disaster did not end. It has been trapped in Starry Sky City for 500 years. We eliminated it and reactivated it."

what?
The strange shadow that can be corrupted even by the king will make a comeback?

Rovia gathered enough source power and asked anxiously, "Why? Isn't the strange shadow wiped out by us?"

The Queen of Stars replied calmly: "It hasn't disappeared. The black mist is eternal. We just let it return to the void. The black mist is still gathering there, waiting for the opportunity to return to the surface world."

"And in the far and invisible place, in the dark and taboo place, in the depths of the black mist of the source, there will be a new great terror that will be alarmed, the disaster will not go away, and they will come again, until human beings are completely perish, that's source feedback."

"No!"

Rovia categorically denied it.

"We are about to rebound, the fortunes of the fire have changed..."

The Starry Queen shook her head lightly, but did not answer his words.

"Why did you come here?"

Theodore replied, "For the Seed of the Fire." He briefly told her about Trorian's condition.

The starlight became dim, and the Starry Queen's expression became gloomy, and everyone felt a little nervous for no reason.

However, she just murmured.

"late."

"You are too late."

Rovia said anxiously: "Holy fire, is there no way for the holy fire?"

The Starry Queen shook her head again.

"No, your holy fire can be restored. What you need is the seed of this holy fire. Your king has unimaginable wisdom, but your strength is too weak."

"You don't have the ability to resist disasters, and powerful disasters will easily destroy you."

Rovia hurriedly said, "Listen to me..."

The Queen of Stars said softly: "I know what you mean, but it's too late, everything is too late, 500 years have passed... It would be great if you could come earlier."

"Now, you have only one way."

Everyone's hearts suddenly lifted. For countless years, they have been groping in the dark. Isn't what they are looking for is the road and direction?
The only way, what is it?
I just heard the Queen of Stars say: "The only way is to find other Fire King Cities and unite their strength to jointly resist the disaster."

At this moment, there was a huge wave in everyone's heart.

Rovia asked anxiously, "Other Fire King Cities? Do you know other Fire King Cities?"

The Starry Queen nodded slightly.

"After the destruction of Asdergas, the capital of hope, the era of darkness begins..."

what?
The first words of the Starry Queen shocked everyone.

"Didn't the opening of the Dark Era mean the destruction of Starry Sky City?" Rovia asked.

The Starry Queen shook her head: "There are too many omissions and omissions in your history. I can't guarantee that I know everything is correct, but it is more detailed than what you know."

"The end of the Fire Era was when the capital of all capitals, Sigles, was destroyed, and the arrival of the Dark Age was after the destruction of the capital of hope, Asdegas."

"When the holy fire of platinum is extinguished, the last hope of human revival is ended, the age of fire passes, black mist covers the earth, and the era of darkness arrives."

"But the fire was not completely extinguished. Five human heroes successfully escaped from Asdergas with five seeds of the holy fire, saving the last hope for mankind."

"Among these five heroes, there are Tasnia and Trorian."

"The royal city established by Tasnia is called the Starry Sky City, from which the Starry Kingdom was established. He also became the first generation of the King of Stars. After his death, Tasnia was revered as the God of the Starry Sky."

"Due to inheriting a large amount of residual power from Asdegas, our development is very fast. While expanding violently, we are still looking for the location of the other four holy flame seeds, but we did not expect that we are far away from Trorian. So close."

"Before the destruction, our next plan is to explore the Silver City built by the ancient giants, which is your royal city."

"At that time, you must be very weak, and the range of the holy fire's power will not exceed the sacred fire sacrificial field, but the abnormal changes in the hinterland of the dead ember mountain range make us suspect that there are human survivors there."

"Unfortunately, the Kingdom of Stars was destroyed before this plan even started."

Rovia murmured: "So, the history of Trorian is not 300 years, but 800 years?"

The Star Queen's voice became more ethereal.

"Among the five Fire King Cities, Starry Sky City was destroyed first, but it doesn't mean that the other four Fire King Cities will be destroyed. If they are passed down to the present like yours, you will definitely be able to find them."

"Find other Fire King Cities, unite their forces, and there is still a glimmer of life."

The figure of the Starry Queen gradually faded away.

"Star City has been destroyed, Trorian must not repeat the same mistakes."

"I left you a gift... I hope it will be helpful to you."

The Starry Queen raised her right hand and shook it lightly. In an instant, the starlight shone through the entire sacred fire sacrificial field.

The ashes scattered, and a wedge-shaped object shining with stars appeared in the middle of the sacred fire sacrificial field.

"This is our only ancient artifact, the Wanxing instrument that extracts the star source. One of you can open it."

Time began to pass, and the figure of the Queen of Stars faded away.

"Please survive, Trorian humans."

Along with the purple light, the spirit of the Starry Queen also dissipated.

A sparkling seed of holy fire fell from midair into ashes.

Rhodes was staring at the seed of the holy flame that he had never seen before, when he heard a sentence in his ear.

"is it you?"
