the last king of darkness

Chapter 522 Departure
The Book of Knowledge once told him that there is only one way to tell whether a soul is an ancient evil thought or not, and that is to cut the soul apart in a frozen state.

Of course, this also leads to the total death of the soul.

Unless it is very sure that he is the reincarnation of ancient evil thoughts, he cannot be used.

The internal friction caused by the large-scale mutual suspicion of human beings is also one of the methods used by the Doomsday Cultists to disintegrate the power of fire.

But Rhodes has a trump card - [God Sense], which consumes 10 points of divinity to use its ability [Spiritual Wisdom] to gain god-like wisdom for a short time.

As long as he has an object of suspicion, he will send out a [spiritual idea], and instantly gain the deduction ability of a primary school student, and he can tell at a glance whether he is a doomsday cultist or not.

It doesn't matter if you are wrong, Rhodes has decided that he can invest 200 points of divinity in this, that is, the effect of 20 times of [Inspiration], to try and make mistakes.

Rhodes felt that it was not a loss at all to dig out Amon with 200 divinity points.

Even if Amon is not worth 200 points of divinity in the end, he still thinks it doesn't matter, it is worth it. The existence of this guy is not only a huge hazard, but also disturbs people's mentality.

If he didn't kill him, he would be sorry for his status as the master of the dream, and for the provocative text left in Starry Sky City.

Therefore, in order to verify his authenticity, Rhodes took Mephis with him.

In fact, Lucian is not willing to let this sensitive person join the team. The controversy over her has not yet ended. There are too many people involved in the Stone Street church case, and too many people hate her extremely, and they are very repulsed to be on the team with her.

And the ancient city of Sagus is in a very remote ancient place, more than [-] yards away from Trorian. If the king city hadn't discovered a special route, it would be impossible for them to reach such a remote area.

In the long-distance team, no unstable factors are tolerated. If this trip is not very important, Wang Cheng originally considered canceling this operation.

After tolerating the unstable factor of Doomsday Cultists, but also tolerating the unstable factor of Memphis, not only Lucian, many people are unwilling.

If it weren't for Rhodes' insistence, Memphis would not be allowed to enter the team at all.

Even if she was forced to agree, she was asked to hide her identity and was not allowed to appear in public.

Although she was targeted everywhere, Mephis didn't complain too much. She put on a wig, hid her face under the hood, and followed Rhodes into the crowd.

The strongest person on this trip is Moon Knight Olivia. For an operation of this size, there must be special fighters.

The main fighters are Rhodes, Lucian, Night Breeze, Rigel and Vito.

There are also thirty high-level combatants, twelve high-level adjudicators, plus three bishops of the Holy Church and seven high-level priests, making up the entire combat power of the team.

All others, are non-combatants.

Including [-] scholars from various societies in Wangcheng, [-] researchers from the Engineering Research Institute and recorders of the large library, and [-] prophets from the White Tower.

Led by history professors Binns and Barrett.

They have just achieved outstanding results by studying the ruins of Starry Sky City, and they are well-known in the academic circles of Wangcheng.

Lucien's efficiency is very high, a team of more than 100 people was assembled in two days.

If it weren't for the cumbersome mobilization of special combat power, he could be even faster.

Day three.

Early in the morning, the mighty team arrived at the big square in front of the Silver Pledge.

The silver oath is deep underground in the royal city, and the large square on the ground is just a meeting place.

Olivia stood at the front of the team, her expression was very gloomy. She didn't want to participate in this mission, but all the super combat powers couldn't be separated, so she could only come here.

She glanced at the hooded figure in the distance with disgust.

Night Breeze, Rigel, and Vito were very happy, and asked Rhodes to ask questions. They had cooperated with Rhodes on the Starry Sky City battlefield and forged a deep friendship.

Lucian led the high-ranking adjudicators to patrol the team. His soul characteristic "Eye of Heart" had been activated, and there was a strange aura in his eyes, examining every restless soul.

Scholars gathered together, discussing something intensely.

Professors Binns and Barrett are in the eye of the storm, but have no intention of participating.

After a while, the silver-sworn person rode a psionic disk and rose from the ground.

The controlled monster "Black Swan" is impressively among them.

Lucian immediately stepped forward and bowed deeply: "The two pledgers have worked hard."

The two hurriedly returned the salute, waved their hands and said, "Lord Lucien, this is not a big deal. The taboos are about to be abolished, so I will leave this black swan to you so that we don't have to deal with it manually... This is the control talisman."

Lucian took the control talisman and input spiritual energy, and the black swan raised his head and walked towards them.

It was a huge monster, covered with black feathers, like a mutated crow.

When it came, the crowd immediately fell silent.

Olivia said in a deep voice, "Go up." With a light jump, she took the lead in jumping onto the bird's head.

The crowd followed closely and climbed onto the bird's back.

The back of "Black Swan" is very broad, more than enough to accommodate 100 people.

After everyone went up, Lucian raised his voice and shouted: "Please grab your feathers, we are leaving."

"Where's your supplies?" a pledger called out.

Lucian showed a smile, glanced at Rhodes beside him, and replied briefly: "Don't you know who he is?"

Rhodes was so annoyed that he urged, "Let's go."

As soon as Lucien grasped the control rune, the black swan flapped its wings and soared into the air, and it was gone in the blink of an eye, leaving only a scream of sudden realization.

"In the black rice bucket!"

-

-

The speed of the black swan was very fast, but it flew out of the king's city in a moment, and plunged into the black mist.

After leaving the range of the firelight, its speed was obviously improved, but the difficulty of controlling it also increased. From time to time, Lucian could feel something in the control rune beating, tearing, and resisting his spirit.

"The controlled monster is being affected by the black mist." Night Breeze said in a deep voice.

Lucian glanced at him, the "Eye of Heart" was activated invisibly, identifying lies is one of its most basic abilities.

"Don't worry, Night Breeze, I will exhaust its strength with all my strength and send us to the ancient land as quickly as possible."

Night Breeze frowned: "You mean, it's only a one-way delivery?"

Lucian nodded, and at the same time glanced at him for a second time. The current chief adjudicator has doubts about everyone except Rhodes, even Olivia is no exception.

"Then what do we do when we come back?"

"Your Excellency Rhodes is here." Lucian said calmly, "He has a kindling that can open the portal back to the royal city."

Night Breeze made an exclamation voice: "As expected of an angel with the will of fire, I have never had such a functional fire."

Rhodes didn't correct Lucien's words. The specific function of [Spirit Boat] is to open the door of a place he has been to, and it can only be used once a month.

But he didn't want to tell Night Breeze that the official name of [Spirit Boat] was white turbidity.

Revere smiled and said, "Brother, you are also a Starfire sequence, why are you so useless?"

"Yes." Vito sighed, "Rhod's fire seems to be much stronger than yours."

Night Breeze blushed, and blue veins burst out on his forehead: "He is the Son of Fire! Of course it's different!"

Everyone laughed, and the air was full of joy, not like a dangerous trip at all.

In the rear, scholars are still discussing fiercely, debating every detail of Starry Sky City's demise and where it can be used for reference.

The three bishops raised the lamp together, and the faint light dispelled the black mist, protecting the group of souls with countless knowledge and wisdom.

The judges stared at everyone on the back of the bird, nervously looking for traces of the doomsday cultists.

In this way, everyone flew over the mountains at an unimaginable speed on the black swan, and shuttled among the mountains.

The farther away from the king's city, the thicker the black mist, and the range of the lantern gradually narrowed, and the high-ranking priests had no choice but to raise their lanterns.

All of a sudden, white light illuminates a small area.

But the good times were not long, and soon, the black swan flew out of the range of Trorian, the concentration of the black mist instantly increased by several orders of magnitude, and the fire was compressed to a small range.

Lucien didn't care, but accelerated the speed instead.

The black swan pierced through the sky at an unimaginable speed, and plunged into the depths of the darkness.

About four to five hours later, I don't know if it was due to the limit, the black swan suddenly exploded in the air, black feathers flew all over the sky, and only the bare flesh was left on the ground, the rotten smell was unbearable.

There were no casualties, and Olivia opened the moonlight field, protecting everyone well.

Except Memphis.

She was excluded from the moonlight field alone, and she seemed lonely.

Rhodes had no choice. Since he knew that Olivia's son was also dead and the Stone Street teaching case, he knew that this could not be reconciled. If it wasn't impossible, he really didn't want Olivia and Memphis to be alone. meet.

But the matter has come to this point, Rhodes can only pretend not to see, and asked Lucian: "Are we there?"

Lucien nodded slightly:
"We have arrived!"

"There is the ancient city of Sagus!"
