the last king of darkness

Chapter 584 Tranquility before the rainstorm
three days later.

Not surprisingly, Xing Ge successfully completed the quantification and became the third candidate to control the law of the source of fire.

The entire royal city was boiling.

Three supercombatants turned out at the same time, a feat never done before.

What's more, they are candidates for the king, special characters who have mastered the law of the source of fire.

Rumors of the coming age of fire are everywhere, and the talk of humanity's revival doesn't even get noticed.

How to purify the world within 5 to 10 years and reproduce the blue and clean sky is the hottest content in the streets and alleys.

Rovia's theories are no longer sensational, even conservative.

When he disguised himself to spread theories, he was also called a "coward", "a stubborn old man with an uncivilized head" and "a slow-moving fool", which made him very distressed.

This fanatical atmosphere soon spread throughout the streets and alleys, and spread with the trade exchanges between Wangcheng and other towns.

For a moment, the whole Trorian was like a raging fire cooking oil, with flowers blooming.

Everyone is looking forward to it, hoping to receive more and greater news of victory.

The doomsday believers' theory of annihilation completely lost the market.

Even the most pessimistic think they are a bunch of rats hiding in the gutter, eating too much poop and causing brain dysfunction.

No one believed their crazy words anymore.

The situation that the Holy Church spent countless efforts and painstaking efforts to achieve, unexpectedly appeared in a very short period of time.

Even far beyond imagination.

Horus regretted releasing those gossips. Originally, he only intended to establish Rhodes' prestige and increase people's confidence, but he didn't expect it to explode like dry wood and fire.

This unusual fanaticism soon aroused Wang's vigilance.

He issued an order for the Supreme Council to hold a special meeting to discuss this matter.

However, most of the elders in the meeting didn't care too much.

One elder concluded:
"Isn't it a good thing that people believe in victory, in a bright future?"

However, Lucian, the ruling chief, raised dissenting opinions.

"It's certainly not a bad thing to believe in victory, but it can be a bad thing to be superstitious about victory. Although in the past period of time, we have achieved a series of victories and gained a lot, it does not mean that we will always win in the future. .”

"The higher you stand, the harder you fall. Once you encounter setbacks, people may go to the opposite extreme."

An elder asked, "Are you saying that this may be a conspiracy by Doomsday Cultists?"

Lucian shook his head: "I'm not sure, but it's possible."

"Hehehe."

The elder sneered and said, "The doomsday believers are really full of wisdom. They even concocted such rumors to dig up the soil of their own existence. Are these the three behind-the-scenes men who destroyed the Starry Kingdom in the legend?"

There was a burst of laughter at his words.

But Lucien's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "We must not take it lightly."

There are also some elders who support his words.

"Yes, such a fanatical atmosphere is too abnormal."

"My granddaughter came to ask me last night, when will the general attack on the dark world be launched?"

"Judging from their tone, I thought the sun would break through the black mist tomorrow."

Another part of the elders are not to be outdone.

"You are just too cowardly!"

"There's nothing wrong with that!"

"When did we become so cowardly? Is it okay to just talk?"

Pros and cons quickly quarreled.

"Quiet!"

The first elder, Armando, finally spoke after being silent for a long time.

"I think this matter deserves attention. Our current victory is not worth mentioning in the face of real darkness. The future is bound to be bright, but the road is also tortuous. Blind arrogance will inevitably lead to disaster. We should not be arrogant or arrogant. Impatient, neither blind nor pessimistic, go step by step and win the final victory."

The venue was quiet for a moment, and then there was warm applause.

Armando's words stabilized their mentality like a steelyard, and broke through the confusion in their hearts like a sword.

"As expected of the First Elder, the strongest in Trorian 100 years ago."

Such a thought emerged in everyone's mind.

Only Horus felt that something was wrong, and he stayed after everyone left.

"Hehe, you can see it."

Armando's eyes were dim and cloudy, and his voice was hoarse like dead wood.

He was too old, after Theodore's death, to be the eldest of the Trorians, time robbing him of his vigor and corruption of his mind.

His soul was like a candle in the wind, about to go out.

Armando opened his hand, and in his wrinkled palm, there was a small note on which was exactly what he said.

Seeing the crooked handwriting like chicken scratches, Horus knew it was Rhodes.

Among all the high-level personnel, only his bad handwriting is the most famous.

While having a strong personal color, it is also absolutely difficult to imitate.

"This is the answer sent by the spirit crow messenger."

Armando said hoarsely, even with just these few conversations, his expression was visibly exhausted.

"Before the debate started, I sent a messenger to him, and this kid made me wait at least half an hour before giving me an answer."

Horus suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Amondo had been silent all the time. He thought he was confident and firmly in control of the situation, but he didn't expect that he was just waiting for Rhodes' answer.

"Your Excellency the First Elder, do you trust him so much?"

There was a little smile on Armando's old face: "Yes, after going through so many things, how could I not believe him?"

"No, no, I mean, you believe he's capable of that?"

A gleam of light flashed in Amando's cloudy eyes.

"You all underestimated him, and he probably didn't know how strong his potential was, but I believed in him, just like I believed in the king at the beginning... But the role of the king is too important, and such a thing cannot be done. Disturbing him, using that little guy's intelligence, is my favorite thing to do right now."

Horus was silent, and his thinking was still a little difficult to change. In his impression, Rhodes was still a green boy, who did things frivolously and didn't know the importance.

Although he has become the Son of Fire, this impression has not changed.

Armando showed a faint smile, and the wrinkles on his face bloomed like a blooming old chrysanthemum.

"I have a hunch that my time is numbered and I will make everything public before I die."

Horus frowned all of a sudden, there is no doubt that doing so would bring great prestige to Rhodes.

"You...you mean, the one who hides the fire becomes the king?"

Amando shook his head lightly: "No, it's too early to talk about this topic now. Wang is at his peak and should last at least ten years."

"Go back, Horus, you have a lot to do afterwards."

Horus did not refute, how to calm this violent upsurge without overcorrecting is the focus of the Holy Church's next work.

Not only that, but also cooperate with Lucian to identify and arrest the doomsday believers hidden in it.

It is also necessary to prepare for the celebration of the king's candidate advancing to the lawmaker, as well as a series of events brought about by the emergence of new super combatants.

Just thinking about the dense work made Horus feel a headache.

Therefore, he didn't get to the bottom of it, but followed Armando's advice, turned around and left the Supreme Council.

I hope everything is as Amando said.

he thinks.

-

In the station, Rhodes was lying tiredly on Memphis' lap, while Annabelle was massaging beside him.

Kassan practiced boxing in the distance.

He wanted Cassan to come over and give him a massage, but seeing her roaring punches, he wisely switched to Annabe.

During this time, he has been harassed by Armando.

Especially in the past few days, whenever there is something to do, a Spirit Crow messenger will be sent to ask for his opinion.

Rhodes was almost annoyed by him, but he had to reply seriously.

After all, he is already Trorian's son of fire, and also serves as the hidden fire.

This should be my duty, otherwise, why would the First Elder specifically ask for my opinion?

Rhodes thought so.

The result is that I have a splitting headache, I don't even want to do training, and I have to lie down and rest.

"Well, it's so soft... That's right, it's there, use some strength."

Annabelle said unhappily: "Have you pressed enough? I want to train. I just asked about the recent situation of the Spirit Girls Group today. All the sisters have entered the ranks of first-level combatants. Sister Jessica and Wen Sister Dini has already taken half a step towards the Herrscher, and I am still a third-level combatant, if this continues, the gap between me and my sisters will become wider and wider."

For this result, Rhodes was not surprised at all.

The members of the Spirit Girls Group are all super geniuses, and it will be a matter of time before they advance to the first level of combatants.

It is also very possible to go one step further and become a law-maker.

The saying "power has a price" doesn't hold true for them at all.

Rhodes suspected that they, like himself, were the "life of mankind" on the evil stone tablet that Asa showed him.

I just don't know what kind of soul girl group it is.

Of course, Annabelle must be absolutely excluded, she is simply a waste material among waste materials.

Rhodes spent ten times more resources on her than a combatant of the same level.

Her own efforts are ten times that of the same fighters.

In this case, her growth is still pitifully slow, and as the level of psionic power increases, it will become slower and slower.

Rhode felt that hard training was useless, so it was better to relax.

It doesn't matter if you can't grow, anyway, Annabe's Spiritual Spear is useful enough.

"Do not worry."

Rhodes smiled and comforted.

"You are now in a bottleneck period. It is useless to be anxious, and it will be counterproductive. Relax, maybe you can find an opportunity for a breakthrough."

After hearing such words, Annabe calmed down and continued to exert force on her hands.

"Okay, that's it, my sphincter can finally relax, Mephis, give me a massage."

But there was a sudden cold feeling in his hands, and Mephis' voice came from beside his ears: "Can you stop touching?"

Rhodes said with a smile: "Mephis, you have been stuck in the bottleneck for a long time. If you don't stimulate it, how can you break through? Besides, I can increase my humanity because of this... You don't want the curse to get out of control because of your inhumanity?"

Mephis didn't reply, but the slight chill on the side of her head showed that she didn't agree with Rhodes' words.

At this moment, another spirit crow messenger flew over, dropped a letter and left.

Rhodes unfolded it and saw that it really belonged to Blade Song.

Xingge has been in a deep dormancy ever since she completed quantification and mastered the law of the source, and she couldn't wake up no matter what.

Blade Song was very worried, but Rhodes didn't care, and wrote on the back of the letter:

"Make sure there is an oversupply of psionic energy, time will help Xingge."

This is the answer given by the Book of Knowledge, and there should be no problem.

After sending the letter, Rhodes lay back on Mephis' lap. To be honest, her thigh was long, white and soft, and it felt cool. It was super comfortable to lie on, and she could forget all her troubles. .

It's a pity that she doesn't let me touch it very much, otherwise this leg can be played for a year.

Rhodes now just wants to lie down.

In the past few days in the resident, he hardly did anything, just lying down all day long, because Molly went to perform the task of recruiting, so he was either holding Memphis's headrest, or pulling Annabelle to hammer her leg.

Kashan also comes sometimes, but this girl is growing at a high speed recently, and the star source potion has a great effect on her. Now she has stepped into the ranks of second-level combatants in one breath, and her control over the seeds of anger is more refined Now, even in calm times, a small part of the power of anger can be used.

"Calm in anger, anger in calm" was the growth path that Rhodes spent 10 divinity for her.

Kashan has gradually mastered this, her regular attacks are stronger, she can land more full power strikes in a day, and she continues to grow.

Rhodes didn't bother her too much.

Nothing happened in the dream.

The book of knowledge and the puppet are repairing all kinds of damage all day long, the book of the future is sleeping on the shelf, and Asa is digesting evil thoughts.

The dream void was sailing at the junction of the Chaos Sea and the Ice Prison, and hadn't left the foggy area yet.

The invasion is five days away.

In Trorian, apart from the upsurge brought about by the advancement of the three king candidates, no other important things happened.

The defense of the old castle was completed, and the sons of fire returned to the royal city.

Thirteen hundred psychic cannons were sent to the old castle, responsible for the safety of the guarded sun crystal veins.

All the expansion has stopped, and most of the areas near the human stronghold have been cleaned up. Most of the soldiers are guarding the stronghold. Apart from some small-scale battles, there is no particularly urgent situation.

Even the astrology is nothing special, it's just normal weather.

Most of the fighters are repairing and recovering, and the whole kingdom looks extremely peaceful.

However, Rhodes clearly knew that this was the calm before the storm.

Everyone is waiting for the White Tower, for the end of the prophecy of the source.

And Rhodes is still waiting for the arrival of the invasion and the awakening of the star soul.

He still has countless things to do, but that's all after he steps into the Commander and becomes a real special fighter.

It's useless to be anxious now, it's better to take a good rest.

Rhodes yawned big, turned over, and felt a heavy feeling inexplicably in his eyelids, so he closed his eyes.

Mephis looked at the big sleeping boy lying in her arms, a cold light flashed in his silver eyes.

While complaining, Annabell pinched Rhode's waist and back, hoping to find inspiration for improvement from these boring jobs.

Cassan was still punching the air heavily, and the crystal sweat dripped down one after another. She felt that her heart was gradually becoming clearer, as if she had mastered the power of real anger.

Above the royal city, in the Palace of Fire.

Molly finally found the person she was looking for, and threw out Rhodes' olive branch.

A special training ground in the hall.

In the sky full of flames, Rovia looked at his palm and murmured: "Well, I seem to have become stronger too... I wonder if I can catch up with that fat woman."

In a space full of moonlight.

Olivia is talking to Princess Darkmoon about the power of moonlight.

"Moonlight and sunshine seem to come from the same source, but unfortunately, Kai didn't wake up..."

The edge of the royal city.

Under a mound of swords, Alan half-kneeled on the barren ground and murmured: "I'm here to see you again..."

Holy Fire Sacrificial Site.

Wang neutralized another threat, throwing a mighty monster spirit into the fire.

The light of the holy fire became brighter again.

white tower.

Under countless flashes of light, Meredith murmured:
"Finally...finally..."
