the last king of darkness

Chapter 699 The Resurrection of the Sun
The huge holy white tree suddenly began to sway, and the branches and leaves that enveloped the entire botanical garden emitted a roar like a sea wave.

The infinite breath of life falls from the leaves, as if celebrating the completion of the true king's ceremony.

All the priests and scholars in the botanical garden raised their heads in surprise, looking at the sacred white tree that suddenly became active.

The priest of life said in surprise: "The power of life is booming, my God, the holy white tree... the holy white tree has begun to grow, hurry up, hurry up and prepare nutrients!"

One of the deacons ran in panic, but immediately discovered that there was not enough food.

"Priest of Life, nourishment, nourishment is only a quarter of the one-time quota!"

The Life Priest shouted angrily: "Why don't you go make it quickly?"

"Yes, but the soul residue is not enough!"

"are you an idiot?"

The Life Priest flew up and kicked him into pieces.

"Won't you ask for it from the great, invincible, black-blooded Lord Rhodes?"

The deacon explained with a mournful face: "We regularly request soul residues from Lord Rhodes, but this time it was suddenly brought forward..."

The Priest of Life was furious: "How dare you talk back? See if I don't..."

Before he finished speaking, a figure landed next to him, and a familiar voice sounded:

"What are you arguing about? What happened to the Holy White Tree?"

The Life Priest turned around and saw that it was Rhodes. He immediately bowed 180 degrees:

"Sir Rhodes, you came just in time. This idiot was just slandering you for not providing soul residue. I was about to cut him into pieces..."

Rhodes waved his hand:

"Don't talk nonsense, what happened to the Holy White Tree? Also, why do I feel an unimaginably powerful aura in the distance?"

The Life Priest hurriedly replied: "Mr. Rhodes, the life force of the Holy White Tree is booming, and it is about to start growing again. This is the fifth growth of the Holy White Tree in thousands of years... I guess it is probably Lord Percival. The True King Ceremony is completed.”

"finished?"

Rhodes was shocked. He just got back the dragon's heart and the True King Ceremony was completed?

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the Life Priest shouted urgently: "Lord, we need soul residues and monster ashes. The growth of the Holy White Tree is very rare. Every time it grows, the Holy White Tree's life force will be extremely great. Improvement can provide us with more holy white tree twigs and holy white tree fruits, which are important raw materials for us to make potions. It can also support more small holy white trees. Otherwise, areas outside the royal city will not be protected by life. , and it’s hard to survive.”

The Book of the Future also said in his mind: "Master, I saw vigorous life, abundant harvest fruits, the breath of spring, a powerful holy tree growing, and little golden lights flying among the branches... You should provide enough Soul residue and monster ashes, at least 2500 million copies."

Rhode's heart moved, and he threw out 3000 million soul residues and countless monster ashes.

There were so many of them that they formed a hill directly in front of him.

The life priest's eyes popped out, and all his vision was occupied by the gray-white translucent soul residue.

He has never seen so many raw materials. In the past, Rhodes only gave 200 to 300 million servings at a time because it was difficult to preserve. If he gave too many, he would not be able to use them and they would go bad. But even so, he felt that it was a lot. In the past, it would have taken at least three months for Wangcheng to accumulate so much soul residue. The Holy White Tree was starved all year round. Not only did it have few young shoots, but it also produced few fruits.

Since Rhodes had sufficient supply, the number of fruits and twigs from the Holy White Tree has continued to increase dramatically.

"Feed it all to the Holy White Tree, don't keep any of it."

Rhodes gave brief instructions.

"Produce it as quickly as possible. When the Holy White Tree is growing, it must not be even half nutritionally deficient."

Seeing that the priest of life was stunned and unresponsive, he turned and pointed at the aide and said, "You are responsible for this matter."

After speaking, he flew away, leaving only a group of priests who were still in shock.

-

The preparations for the True King Ceremony are on the other side of the Holy White Tree, on a large grassy area.

When Rhodes arrived, he immediately saw the huge magic circle shining with strange light.

It seems to be composed of countless complex patterns. The outermost circle is a huge circle. The raw materials made of soul residue and soul characteristics form the basis of the ceremony. At the beginning of the ceremony, it bears the powerful position on behalf of the initiate. Backlash.

The majestic breath hit his face, and for a moment, Rhodes felt as if the ceremony in front of him led to a bottomless abyss.

In my mind, the Book of Knowledge sighed with shock and reverence for the first time:

"Is this the ceremony for a man to become a god? It's so great and mysterious that I must have seen it before, but I can't remember it."

The Book of the Future turned over the pages and said dejectedly: "I can't predict it at all. It's just a black ocean to me."

The puppet said softly: "I can feel that it will completely change people's souls. I once remembered a saying that the fundamental meaning of the source's upgrade is the upgrade of the soul."

Asa stirred his soul, and the turbid particles turned into a storm in his body.

"Hmph, what's so great? Sooner or later, I will step into this field, and compared to the boring fire, the power I have is greater and greater."

The Book of the Future snorted coldly: "The power of shit, right? If anyone didn't know, they would have thought you were going to control the power of fate."

The Book of Knowledge happened to hum twice, as if echoing its words.

Asa's soul suddenly swelled, and he said angrily: "Stupid idiot, one day, I want you all to kneel down and beg me!"

The Book of the Future sneered: "Please let us go?"

"Please let me let you poop!"

After saying that, Asa flew back to his lair, buried himself in his soul, and focused on digesting the yellow particles in his body.

Rhodes ignored them. He only focused on one thing now. He turned around and asked: "Your Excellency Percival, this is more than a week faster than the scheduled time. Can the True King Ceremony be performed immediately?"

Percival was at the very edge of the ceremony, carefully examining every detail of the ceremony.

"Theoretically, this is true, but if you want to hold the ceremony, the king's state must be adjusted to the best, otherwise it will greatly increase the difficulty of the ceremony. His current life is incomplete, and he is still fighting in the spirit world. In the near future, it should be It can’t be done, and.”

Percival paused, stood up, and looked at Rhodes with spiritual vision.

"If you want to hold the most complete true king ceremony, thirteen kings need to hold it together. The king must be in a complete state, that is, possess level 15 spiritual energy and strong source, and the life strength has reached the king level, and is in perfect harmony with the soul. Allow."

"Currently, there are only four kings in Trorian, me, you, Efra, and Olivia."

"This quantity is only enough for the most basic needs. The pressure of the True King Ceremony will be extremely huge, and the probability of success is not high."

Rhodes was shocked. There was no doubt that they would hold the most complete True King Ceremony.

There absolutely cannot be any mistakes or omissions.

"How many of us are about to be promoted to kings?"

Percival replied without hesitation:
"Archbishop Horus, candidate for king Jon, Qingyu, and the other candidate Xingsong is still far behind."

"Among the Sons of Fire, Jeraba, Pebela, Red Queen, and Rovia are close to the king level. Princess Darkmoon and Misha are too young, promoted too quickly, and have unstable souls. They are not suitable for promotion for the time being. First Aleihan, the son of fire, is too old, and his soul has been deeply eroded, and he can no longer be promoted."

"Other special combatants are not qualified to enter the realm of kings."

"In addition, Alan is too special. He cannot be considered a normal king. Another great knight captain, the Holy Sword Knight Weihele, is also very special. His soul is bound to his Holy Sword of Dawn, becoming He has developed a weird symbiote, and he cannot advance unless he ascends the Sword of the Dawn."

Percival paused and his tone became solemn.

"But Sun Knight Kai is qualified."

"He is even in the critical state of the king level, but because his soul has been severely corrupted, his body is mutilated and cursed, he cannot complete the promotion."

Rhodes' eyes widened: "Doesn't that mean that if I cure the Sun Knight, then he can be promoted to king-level combat power?"

Percival looked at him in surprise, and immediately remembered what the king had told him:
"You, have you found the heart of the dragon? Can you create that kind of super life creature?"

Rhodes smiled and nodded.

At this moment, the wrinkles on Percival’s face unfolded layer by layer, like chrysanthemums blooming:
"Okay, great. When I first heard about the existence of this kind of creation, I subconsciously couldn't believe it. The ritual of the King's Heart directly dug out a part of his life. Unless he reshapes his life, it is impossible. Recovered. The key to Kai's problem is that his body was severely injured, and his soul was so severely corrupted because of the drag from his body."

"But his soul characteristics are very powerful. The power of the sun is the legendary source law, with unimaginable power. Its power is innate. Even in a state of serious injury, it is constantly getting stronger and improving. The terrifying power of the sun is always purifying the soul, and as long as his body recovers, his soul will soon recover."

At this time, Rhodes heard the Book of the Future shouting in his mind: "A lot of divinity, Master, a lot of divinity!".

At the same time, he saw the golden light floating from Star Square.

Under the influence of the power of the Book of the Future, it changed from a hazy golden light into a specific number.

175 divinity points!
so much!
Rhodes smiled in his heart.

It seems that this Sun Knight is Trolian's great savior, and he will play an extremely important factor in the future battles.

Of course, the reason why he can be given so much divinity is that he did everything in the process of saving the Sun Knight.

Everyone else has no role, he is not only the key, he is the only one.

Everything that is "the only" gives a lot of divinity!

And as Rhodes' power grows, he will occupy more and more shares in more and more events, and even become "the only one".

It is foreseeable that his divinity will definitely increase more and more in the future. If there is a large-scale battle like the Battle of Starry Sky City or the Battle of Saint Rey, he will definitely gain more than 1000 points of divinity.

"Then let's go now."

Percival nodded slightly and suddenly pressed Rhode's forehead again.

Rhodes asked in surprise: "What's wrong? Is there nothing wrong with my soul?"

Percival showed a pleased smile:

"No problem, this is the soul of a powerful king, only slightly worse than Lord Maude and Lord Taxis... What I just saw was the aura of luck in your soul."

Rhodes immediately remembered that before he became the Herrscher, he became the master of the Seat of Ashes in advance.

According to Horus, man's destiny is gathering in his soul.

"Does it matter?"

Percival said with a smile on his face: "Of course it does matter. You know, the True King is the god of mankind. The biggest driving force for the upgrading of Qiangyuan is human luck. The most complete True King ritual requires sufficient human luck. "

"Fortunately, you are well prepared. Each Son of Fire has a corresponding Seat of Ashes. Humanity's destiny has gathered a lot in your souls, which is completely enough for this true king promotion."

Before Rhodes could smile, he heard Percival continue. "However, you need to join the ceremony in person. This will not only have the highest success rate, but also avoid the risk of being hijacked."

Rhodes was shocked: "What do you mean? Can human destiny be hijacked?"

Percival said with a gloomy face: "Yes, the ancient evil thoughts have long figured out how to destroy the True King's ritual. They will hijack human destiny, disrupt its flow, and then destroy the source of upgrading, causing the ritual to fail. Saint Rey This happened several times, and a great king died in the ceremony of the true king."

Rhodes' fists clenched involuntarily.

"What should I do?"

Percival's tone slowed down: "Don't worry, we have already had preventive measures. After that time, the same thing will not happen. So, just do as I said and be fully prepared before the True King Ceremony. There won’t be any problems.”

Rhodes was relieved, but his mood was still very low. He thought about how miserable it would be if the much-anticipated Holy Son failed to be promoted and died on the spot during the True King Ceremony in Saint Rael.

This kind of thing must not happen in Trorian.

Afterwards, Rhodes followed Percival to the bottom of the royal city.

To be precise, it is a cathedral similar to a basement. It is very special and is located directly under the "Silver Ring". A powerful sealing power envelopes the entire church.

Only the most special people will stay here, such as Misha, the Thunder King, and Kai, the Sun Knight.

They use the power of the "Silver Ring" to seal the soul, suppress corruption, and suppress collapse, but this is only a relief. If they are not treated for a long time, they will eventually die.

The two of them went straight to the depths of the cathedral without any obstruction. The light here was dim, the atmosphere was oppressive, the air was filled with the smell of humidity and medicine, and there were healing priests in white robes everywhere, looking scary.

But both of them are strong men who have experienced hundreds of battles, so they are naturally fearless.

When Percival opened a heavy stone door, Rhodes saw the legendary Sun Knight's true form for the first time.

This is a large circular room. All items are made of stone. The yellow stones reflect the dim light of the fire, making everything here appear extremely profound.

Sun Knight Kai was lying in the sarcophagus in the middle, surrounded by the knights of his knights. After seeing Rhodes and Percival, they bowed deeply and retreated.

Rhodes looked around and saw that the sarcophagus was filled with turbid yellow liquid, and the pungent smell of medicine hit his face.

And in the yellow liquid, there was a large mass of human-shaped rotten flesh soaked in it.

Is that human being?
Rhodes couldn't help but have such an idea in his mind.

The mass of rotten flesh had become so corrupted that it was impossible to tell that it was a living human being. He lay lifeless in the sarcophagus. The rotten pieces of flesh were just connected to each other. Horrible pollution emitted from the flesh, and the turbid yellow color continued. The ground spreads from within.

The impact in front of him was greater than he imagined, and Rhodes frowned slightly. He had also tried to treat Sun Knight Kai, but he was unsuccessful and did not see his true form.

Sun Knight Kai usually has a stand-in puppet to represent him in major Trolian events. The puppet looks waxy yellow.

At that time, Rhodes thought that all puppets were like this, but now it seems that it may be soaked in the pollution of the Sun Knight.

"Is it Percival?"

There was a muddy sound in the rotten flesh, and Sun Knight Kai seemed to wake up.

"It's really troublesome that you come to see me again. I may not have much chance of survival. The poison of the Amigos is too powerful. Even Lord Theodore is helpless. Please don't waste your time. Your time is our strength. It’s precious.”

The surrounding knights all showed sad eyes. These were the first people to fight beside the Sun Knight. They were the Sun Knight's Chapter, just like Rhodes' Black Chapter.

At this moment, they knew that their master, their leader, was dying.

This legendary Trollian knight's life is coming to an end.

Percival smiled slightly: "Kay, maybe it won't be long before I can see the wonder of the sun rising."

There was a hint of surprise in Kai's voice: "Have you found a way?"

"No, it wasn't me who found it, but Rhodes who found it."

Hearing the name, a hint of joy appeared in Kai's voice: "Is it him? Is he here?"

Rhodes took a step forward: "It's me, Lord Kai. I have brought you a miraculous life creation that can reshape your body. It can give you a new body, completely get rid of corruption and curses, and restore your incomplete body. "

At this moment, Rhodes felt that the place seemed to get brighter. All the knights of the guard raised their heads, their sights shot from all directions, and every pair of eyes shone brightly.

Yes, they have been disappointed too many times. No matter what methods Wangcheng uses, they cannot save the former Sun Knight. This legendary warrior of the previous generation has been lying here for 20 years. No matter what kind of miracle, in The terrifying and twisted curse of the Amigos has lost its effect.

However, the one in front of me is different.

He has created so many miracles that they are like stars in the sky. In the past two years, all the news about him is an unparalleled victory. It seems that he will never fail, as if there will never be anyone in front of him. impossible.

He even became the first powerful king of Trolian, growing step by step from a newcomer to the strongest person in Trolian (except the king).

Maybe he really has a way?

The rotten flesh in the sarcophagus trembled, and Rhodes could feel a strong will rising from it.

"Little Rhodes."

His voice was kind and calm.

"Can you really do it? Will it affect the king's recovery? For the legacy of the Dreadfort, he dug out the heart again. The king will soon be promoted to the true king. He is the center of Trolian. If it affects me, don’t use it on me.”

Rhodes smiled and said: "Your Excellency Sun Knight, please don't worry. I found the dragon's graveyard, dug up the dragon's legacy, and collected more than 300 dragon hearts from it, which can be used to create three copies of [Demon Dragon Heart]. Not only can you fully recover and help the king recover, but it can also provide an extra portion so that we can eat the king’s feast.”

His words attracted everyone's attention, even Percival and Kai did not leave.

He asked curiously: "What is the King's Feast?"

Rhodes smiled and said: "[Demon Dragon Heart] can reshape the body. Wouldn't it be a loss if it only restores one heart? The body of a person as powerful as the King must also have high life force. So, the King's flesh and blood , isn’t it possible to eat the king’s liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys and other internal organs? After the king becomes a true king, wouldn’t it be possible to taste the flesh and blood viscera of the true king with a [Demon Dragon Heart]? So many kings A feast cooked with raw materials, isn’t it a king’s feast?”

At this moment, everyone's expressions were extremely weird. Percival opened his mouth wide and his eyes almost popped out. The faces of the knights looked like they were about to burst. Only Kai laughed, his voice vibrating. The houses were shaking.

"As expected of you, little Rhodes, you let me see the king from 20 years ago, before he had the fire-passing ceremony. It was also you who were so free and natural, without any scruples. It's a pity, it's a pity that I'm not as strong as the king, otherwise I also want you to try the Sun Knight’s feast.”

Before he finished speaking, a dark figure emerged from the corner.

"Hehehe, the Sun Knight has such an idea, that's great."

Rhodes looked around and saw that the figure was stooped and old, wearing a blue and white priest uniform. It was the chief priest Megan.

He opened his mouth, showing his rotten teeth, and said with a smile: "As soon as I heard Lord Rhodes entering the underground cathedral, I rushed over immediately. The last time I used such a rare life object, I was not there. I felt extremely regretful afterwards. But I will never let go of this opportunity. [Demon Dragon Heart] can reshape the body, so leave this corrupted corpse to my use."

Kai's voice became cold: "What do you want to do? Megan."

Megan chuckled and said: "Of course it is to improve Trorian's combat power. My creation, Anne of Brittany, is stuck at the key to promotion. After my careful calculation, your contaminated flesh and blood, I can bring her new life and become the most special king-level combat force, and I will also embark on a new path that I have never had before."

Kai said coldly: "No, I don't agree. Your behavior is no different from that of a monster. Why did you become like this when you were full of sunshine decades ago?"

Megan sneered: "I have never changed. It has become just my knowledge and wisdom. The path of Kalil's Inhuman Voice was approved by the king. It played an irreplaceable role in the battle of Trolian." role."

"Yes, if this were not the case, I would wipe out all your laboratories, but this is my body, and I don't want to hand it over to you, and the king will not allow you to do so."

The atmosphere became tense, and the knight guard drew his weapon and looked like he was about to chase people away.

At this moment, Rhodes suddenly remembered what Hegeol said. He said that he must use new ways. Only in this way can he break through the "spiritual restriction".

In Trorian, in addition to the Spark Path and Spirit Fire Path of the Fire Bearer, there are also the White Spirit Bearer and Black Spirit Bearer pathways. In addition, among Kalil's secret troops, there is another The "unawakened" way to merge with monsters.

Among these five paths, only the Fire Holder's path can achieve combat power above the king level.

The other three types, at the end of the day, only have the same combat power as Herrscher.

Anne of Brittany is the only one who has any hope of breaking through this restriction.

However, Megan's behavior was so disgusting that Rhodes was a little undecided, so he asked the Book of the Future to try to predict it.

The Book of the Future quickly turned the pages and said hesitantly: "Master, I'm not sure, but it doesn't seem to be anything particularly bad."

After getting the answer, Rhodes immediately said: "Kai, maybe let him give it a try."

The Sun Knight sighed and acquiesced to his request.

Megan bowed deeply to Rhodes: "Thank you Lord Rhodes, your wisdom is unparalleled. I knew you would support me."

Rhodes glanced at him and said calmly: "I just want to pay attention to our agreement for Trolian and don't go too far, otherwise I will propose to the king to ban your Inhuman Voice of Kalil."

Megan raised his head, opened his mouth, and showed his rotten teeth again, and said with a smile: "I know, please don't worry, Kalil's Inhuman Voice Laboratory will never go beyond the thunder pool."

Rhodes stopped talking, returned to the dreamland, and began to make [Dragon Heart].

[Heart of the Demonic Dragon]: Rebuild the body, restore life, greatly increase activity, transcend all laws, and ignore all prohibitions.

Requires: 1 heart of a dragon king (or 100 hearts of an adult dragon), [-] points of divinity

All materials are available!
Rhodes came to the stone platform, and as soon as he had an idea, the production began.

The huge dragon heart was pulled into the stone platform by invisible force. Countless tools were flying to cut it, and the golden divinity flew out of the obelisk and disappeared into it.

After only a moment, the 100 dragon hearts were exhausted, and the 100 points of divinity left him.

Instead, there was a ruby ​​shining on the stone platform.

It is only about the size of a palm, in the shape of a heart, and the crystal clear gem seems to contain countless compressed flesh and blood.

Rhodes picked it up carefully, feeling the surging life force inside.

This is [Demon Dragon’s Heart]!
With a thought, his consciousness returned to the material world, and [Demon Dragon's Heart] also appeared in his palm.

Rhodes slowly stepped forward, turned on his spiritual vision, and pressed the [Demon Dragon's Heart] in the center of Kai's soul.

At that moment, the miracle began.

The power of life flourished, and countless new flesh and blood bloomed from the rotten flesh. The bright red periosteum, white tendons, eyeballs, muscles, and internal organs were intertwined together, forming a male human in an instant.

He is not tall, has short blond hair, and has an ordinary appearance, but his body contains infinite power.

The moment he stepped out of the sarcophagus, infinite light burst out from his body, powerful heat rose, and a sun seemed to rise in front of his eyes, and the sea of ​​​​source and the spiritual world were shaking.

The Sun Knight is resurrected.

The moment he was reborn, he stepped into the king level.

And in the infinite golden light, the line of golden text in front of Rhodes was clearly visible.

Save the sun, divinity +175
Save Iron Queen Anne, Divinity +35
