the last king of darkness

Deathly silence shrouded, the warm firelight turned pale, and everyone in St. Rael lost expression, temperature, and blood.

Although everyone in Trorian couldn't understand what he said, they knew that it was definitely not a good thing when they saw this scene.

Horus couldn't help asking: "Rods, what did he say? Is it that the city of St. Rael is in great trouble?"

Geraba said in a deep voice: "I can feel his attitude, Brother Rhodes, tell them that although we haven't reached the king level yet, it's not far away. I, Pebella, and the Red Queen are only one step away. Opportunity, you can step into the king class... Horus is only half a step away, and he will become a person who has never seen in a thousand years, who can control the law of light and light, and you, Brother Rhodes, can't use the power level and rank to measure."

The Red Queen snorted coldly: "Jeraba is right. In our Trorian, there are still many new stars who are growing rapidly. We just started late, and it is less than a year since we won the holy flame of Starry Sky City. If If we are given more time, we may not be stronger than St. Rael."

Pebera also said: "Although our king is not a real king, the gap is only half a step away. We just don't know how to get over that chasm and find the way to become a real king."

Rhodes didn't know how to explain it for a while.

The focus of the first bishop's words was not Trorian. He was disappointed that Trorian could not bring them hope.

"Saint Rael... seems to have encountered a big crisis, and they are already on the verge of overturning."

He considered his tone carefully.

"He seems to think that our power cannot save the royal city."

The faces of everyone in Trorian became heavy for a moment, and they suddenly realized that the situation had far exceeded their imagination.

If St. Rael is on the verge of destruction, then this powerful ally will cease to exist, Trorian will not be able to obtain stronger support from the outside, and they will need to spend more power to aid St. Rael.

This will inevitably affect their expansion speed and the construction of "Eternal Sanctuary".

If the great terror predicted by the prophecy of the source comes, and Trorian does not gain enough strength, he will face the same fate as Saint Rael.

Suddenly, Horus said: "Do you think that the Great Terror is aimed at us Trorian? Does it only come in our kingdom?"

At this moment, everyone felt terrified, and the chill spread from their backs, as if they were in an ice cellar.

Yes.

Why do you think that the great terror in the dark world only befalls Trorian?
What the prophecy of the source foretells may not be a certain powerful monster or a certain disaster that is difficult to resist, but a great change in the dark world.

In this change, darkness will gain more power.

And the fire will usher in its cold wave.

It's just that St. Rael was the first to feel the arrival of the cold wave.

In the dead silence, Qingyu suddenly said: "We must help them, at all costs."

No one expressed any objection. At the moment when this sentence was uttered, it seemed to be a matter of course.

Although they have never had a deep understanding of St. Rael, and it has only been a few days to get in touch with St. Rael, but at this moment, St. Rael is Trorian.

To help them is to help ourselves.

Rhodes had a bottom in his heart in an instant, as if some kind of power filled his soul.

Not yet desperate.

he thought.

The first bishop still doesn't know my ability, maybe, there is still room for recovery from the disaster in King City of St. Rael.

-

I don't know how long it took before Evra finally came out of the unprecedented shock. She shouted eagerly: "What are you talking about? Lord Maud, what are you talking about...the royal city cannot be destroyed, the royal city...how? It may be destroyed, His Majesty the Pope is guarding the royal city, Lord O'Sullivan is undefeated!!"

The saint's words rescued Val and Lance from the collapse, and they found the straw to save their lives at once, shouting: "The Pope is invincible! He is the god of mankind, the god of Saint Rael , with his back on the sacred flame, it is impossible to defeat, not even the ancient gods!"

The High Shepherd Percival also shouted excitedly: "Master First Bishop, tell me, what happened to our king, the Pope of the White Church, the eternal holy flame, and the powerful Knights of the Holy See?"

Maude's face was like a mummy, numb and indifferent, and every wrinkle on his face was like scratches carved on wood.

He seemed to have turned into a wooden man, and even the voice he spoke became mechanical without ups and downs: "Bocival, Evra, you haven't received news from Wangcheng for three months, no aid, no supplies, no Command, the Kingdom of St. Rael is divided into countless strongholds and towns that are not connected to each other, don't you realize why?"

Evra lost her eyes and murmured, "I thought our psychic communication was blocked by the black mist..."

Pocival shouted: "Master Maude, did the abyss attack the Royal City? Under the Lightless Sea, has the silent ancient god recovered? Although the dawn horizon was destroyed, the Lightless City did not fall. We will not fall into a desperate situation, as long as the holy fire sacrificial field does not fall, the royal city will not fall! As long as the Pope is still there, we have the hope of turning the tables!"

Bocival's words seemed to touch Maud's painful memory, his stiff face became distorted, like a carved wooden statue, and strange changes took place, the white mist on his body also appeared speckled black.

Horus immediately shouted: "It's corrosion! His soul has been corrupted, and it has already turned dark!"

Rhodes could see more clearly. The eyes of the soul saw the inside of his soul through the white mist polluted by black. On his soul body, there was a large area of ​​darkness spreading, and the rotten area was expanding rapidly.

The first bishop is also on the verge of losing control.

In fact, it is already a miracle that he can still maintain his sanity after his soul has been corrupted to this extent.

"Tears of the Goddess!"

Horus shouted, and took a step forward, "Bright Light" had already gathered in his hands.

"He must be treated immediately!"

Rhodes translated Horus' words as quickly as possible, but Maude shook his head.

"It's hopeless, unless he is the legendary super healer who controls the law of light and light. If he doesn't take this step, he won't be able to save such a deep corruption. I'm about to lose control."

"While I am still sane, break my neck, scatter my soul, let the strong source I control return to the sea of ​​​​source, and don't fall into the ranks of monsters, although this is only in vain, the sea of ​​​​source And it will eventually..."

Suddenly, his words were interrupted by tears on Rhodes' hands.

It was an absolutely perfect circle, as if floating in a weightless space, rolling around on his palm, crystal clear and smooth, full of unprecedented life and purification.

Its strength is not high, but its potential is unfathomable.

At that moment, five words appeared in Maude's mind:

"Tears of the Goddess."

The guy dressed as a bishop in Trorian said something anxiously, Rhodes turned his wrist, and miraculously took out a few of the same teardrops.

"Lord Maud."

Even in St. Rael, the Law Commander, who seemed very young, said in an affirmative tone.

"This should be enough to suppress the darkness in your soul. Although it can't eradicate the corruption, it can alleviate it to a large extent and prevent it from spreading further. The follow-up will depend on the purification ability of your soul will."

At this moment, Maude suddenly had a very unexpected feeling, as if the established destiny had unexpected twists and turns.

"it is good."

Without much hesitation, he agreed.

Rhode's hanging heart was relieved for a moment. The First Bishop didn't seem to be as paranoid as he imagined. He immediately handed the "Goddess Tears" to Horus.

The latter immediately summoned an infinite amount of bright light, forming a cube, submerging Maude's figure, and at the same time, pouring the tears of the goddess into the cube of bright light.

"This is the Coffin of Light."

Horus said with a straight face.

"The treatment method I have only recently mastered can form the best treatment environment and completely infiltrate his soul with the tears of the goddess."

"But his pollution is very heavy. If you want to eradicate it, you have to go back to the cathedral in Trorian King City and go through three to four high-risk soul surgeries before you can recover."

The breath of life and purification rose vigorously, and when the coffin of light fell, the black spots on the white mist had all disappeared.

Maude opened his eyes, the pollution in his soul was greatly reduced, the heavy burden had been thrown off, his body was extremely light, and he felt as if he had been revived.

Rhodes said with a smile: "Lord Maud, your corruption has been brought under control, and your soul should be fine for the time being."

Maude raised his eyes, and the cloudy eyeballs became much clearer. He looked at Rhodes, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I feel some special power from you, but it's too late, and the fate of destruction is inevitable." avoid……"

Rhodes said calmly: "The established fate may also be changed. I don't believe that anything is inevitable. Please tell us what happened in the city of St. Rael, maybe everything will turn around. "

Evra and the others also seemed to see hope, and shouted anxiously: "Master Maude, how is the Pope?"

Maud shook his head: "I don't know."

This answer was beyond everyone's expectations. Evra said anxiously: "I don't know? How could you not know?"

A look of pain appeared on Maude's face again, but it was not as distorted as before. He paused and said softly:
"This matter started a year ago."

"A year ago, Daedalus, the High Shepherd of the Temple of Prophecy, foresaw an unknown disaster, accompanied by the crisis of the Pope."

"Due to the importance of the matter, the Pope strictly ordered this matter to be spread to the outside world. In the entire St. Rael, only the Pope, Daedalus, and me, a total of three people know."

"Three months ago, the pope sensed the danger and found its source, but he refused to use the power of St. Rael and the holy fire, because the lightless sea and the abyss continued to change, which may be a harbinger of disaster. There has to be a focus on disaster."

"He sent three holy sons to Wuguang City, two to the east and south fortresses, and one to Jiancheng. After that, he closed the holy fire sacrificial field and dealt with the crisis alone."

"The disaster is coming at this time."

Maud's face contorted again, his voice distorted, but he persisted.

"There was a sudden riot in the abyss. The monsters that had been silent for thousands of years in the lightless sea surged out. The horizon of Dawn was hit hard. Commander Galahad of Dawn urgently called for help."

"Subsequently, the Lightless City encountered a crisis, and the seal of the ancient gods experienced violent turmoil. This is the first abnormality since we found traces of the ancient gods that disappeared since the ancient era 700 years ago."

"We urgently stepped up the seal, but we still couldn't prevent it from cracking. The fallen ancient gods woke up from their long sleep, and the terrifying power hidden in the ages began to recover. The real disaster has arrived."

"Incomprehensible monsters of flesh and blood appeared everywhere in the Kingdom of Saint Rael. Irregular black mist gathered everywhere. Huge dangers appeared in every stronghold. Messages for help came like snow flakes from the royal city, but I Can't reply, can't support."

"Because Wangcheng has encountered a greater crisis."

"Hundreds of abyss rifts appeared directly in the royal city, and countless abyss monsters surged out. The Holy See Knights fell into a hard fight right away."

"The monsters are extremely powerful. The abyss trolls, dark serpents, and demon lords that have never been seen before have all appeared in the royal city. The power of the Holy See is far less powerful than them, but we firmly believe that we will win because we have the Pope. The powerful holy fire, as long as the god of Saint Rael wakes up, these monsters will be wiped out in the flames."

Maude's voice became extremely low, and Rhodes had already guessed what he was going to say next.

"We persisted for three months, but the Holy Fire Sacrificial Site was never opened. We called countless times, but the Pope never responded. The super-strong spiritual barrier isolated the Holy Fire Sacrificial Site, and it seemed to belong to another space."

"During the bloody battle, countless soldiers were killed, and countless human bones remained. The royal city suffered unprecedented damage. Messages for help from all over St. Rael piled up in the Holy See like a mountain. Every day, the bishops and I In the great torment, the abyss corrupted the base of the Psionic Transmission Tower, but the receiving tower was still intact, we could not send out Psychic transmissions, but we could receive Psychic messages."

Maud raised his head, and Rhodes saw his canthus cracked, and blood flowed from the corner of his eye, winding down from the wrinkles on his face.

"This is the harshest punishment in the world. I watched St. Rael's destruction bit by bit, but there was nothing I could do."

"We tried everything, but we couldn't wake the Pope."

"It wasn't until the last month that such a sentence finally came to an end."

"—After two months of hard fighting, our greatest reliance, the sustenance of all spirit and belief, the holy flame went out."

Maude's expression became ferocious, like a ghost.

"The pope didn't respond, but the holy fire went out!"

"A thick black mist descended, cutting off all psychic communication. We no longer suffer, but our hope is also extinguished."

"Although there is still a bright flame in the royal city, and there are still soldiers struggling to support it, the destruction is already doomed."

"Saint Rael is finished."

The voice fell, and deathly silence once again occupied the space.

Rhodes suddenly realized that they were already so close to the royal city, but they still didn't feel the breath of the holy fire.

Unless the veil of spirits cuts off, this represents a possibility.

original.

The answer was already in front of their eyes.

Maybe they ignored it, maybe they didn't want to believe it subconsciously.

When the holy flame is extinguished, the kingdom must fall, and their Pope must also be in danger.

St. Rael has really been destroyed.

Rhodes clenched his fists, is there another way?
