the last king of darkness

Chapter 75 I'm Stronger
Hines explained impatiently:

"First of all, the Ash Diggers School is a formal organization, and its members are all professionals. It's much better than you flushing in the sewer alone. If you fall into an indescribable place, we won't be able to save you even if we want to."

"Second, if you obtain certain research results, you will not only be rewarded, but also have honors and merits, which will be recorded in your file. This will be beneficial for you to enter the legion, promote your position, battle rating, buy real estate and other things in the future. "

"Third, even if you are qualified to fight, acting alone is still risky. It is best to cooperate with a formal school."

The explanation was very clear and logical, and Rhodes understood it right away.

The arrangement is also very reasonable, turning a single personal risky behavior into a legal and profitable employment behavior, so as to avoid being picked on again.

As expected of the Chief Dean of Kingworth College.

Just a little forgetful.

Maybe it's because he has too many things to think about, and big shots are like this.

Rhodes is very fortunate to have met such an enlightened chief dean.

If the chief dean is an old man who sticks to the rules, even if he is not handed over, as long as his hunter license is deducted, and the ten groups are deducted fifty points, there is no need to wait for the invasion, and Kashan will kill him when he comes back.

Well, such an enlightened dean should be able to serve for another few decades.

After delivering the message, Hines had no intention of leaving.

He looked at Rhodes seriously, and said, "There is one more thing. Although His Excellency the Chief Dean didn't say anything, I guess he forgot."

Rhodes nodded: "It's normal, Your Excellency the chief dean is old and too tired."

"No, the situation is much more complicated than you think."

Hines looked complicated.

He did not continue on the subject, but turned to say:
"From today onwards, you are already a secret fighter among the special students. This is an unexpected arrangement. The academy did not intend to confirm the personnel so quickly, but due to many complicated reasons, the incident cannot be changed. You will Faced with a relatively large danger, we must be mentally prepared.”

Rhodes nodded, not much nervous.

He was in danger all the time anyway, and one more would be no big deal.

There was a hint of appreciation in Hines' eyes.

"Primary brother, you are very good."

He patted Rhodes on the shoulder.

"You must step up your efforts during this period. Practical students like you generally grow very fast. There is no adaptability problem from the greenhouse to the cruel outside world. The environment of the secret branch may be more suitable for you."

"Okay, I'm going back."

It turned out to be the case.

Rhodes suddenly understood, no wonder the Chief Dean didn't ask him why he sneaked out and why he took part in the dangerous hunting mission.

There must be this type of people in the college. They performed poorly in the greenhouse environment and in the classroom, and grew very slowly, but they could grow rapidly in the brutal combat environment.

To some extent, Rhodes is indeed this type of person.

It's just that his inner cause is different from what they thought.

After the hairstyle brother left, Rhodes finally returned to the room.

Close the door, position the pogo pins, and aim at the base of the thigh.

Be careful with this, or it will be bad if it gets stuck in another position.

Rhodes quickly lay down on the bed, made a lightning gesture, and his soul rose into the air.

He finally returned to the dreamland.

A light-colored mist flows in front of the eyes, and the obelisk stands quietly in the center of the world.

In front of it is the hut, and behind it is the black soul altar.

Rhodes saw the yellow-green flame floating directly above the altar at a glance.

It is slender, like the flame of a giant candle, much larger than the surrounding soul fires.

When Rhodes focused on it, its information was fed back to his mind.

[Souls of Auschwitz Victims]

【Powerful Soul】

[The victim from Auschwitz is more complete and possesses most of its power. 】

[The corpses of life and dreams are plagues and phantoms. 】

It really is a powerful soul.

Rhodes was overjoyed.

Well, the materials for the soul firewood are finally available.

But instead of making it right away, he glanced at the back of his right hand.

The eye pattern on it is very real and lifelike.

It was this pattern last time, and the soul altar was summoned.

What about this time?
Rhodes walked towards the altar.

Sure enough, as soon as he got close to it, the back of his hand began to heat up, and the black lines that formed the eyes boiled, and the eyes burst out, turning into a large cloud of black air and falling on the altar.

The black air dissipated quickly, and there were no new altars, but new changes appeared on the original soul altar——

An upside-down sickle.

The long hook blade extended from the bottom of the altar, like a huge withered claw.

what is this?
Rhodes looked at it curiously, jumped onto the altar, and came to the sickle, the shining hook blade was at his feet, half inserted in the altar.

He touched the handle of the scythe lightly.

A large amount of information flooded into my mind instantly, just like the last time I touched the eye of the soul.

【Soul Crit】

The ability to tear open the veil of the spirit, destroy the dark night of the soul, find the flaws of the soul, and tear it apart.

It needs a flaw and can only be activated in the right hand.

Increased power during full moon.

-

Rhode quickly read the information and felt very complicated.

This is a skill similar to [Eye of Soul], he needs to activate it to use it.

The method of activation is very simple, he only needs to imagine a specific sickle pattern in his mind, and fill it with spiritual energy.

Rhodes tried it, and a sickle-shaped moon hook pattern immediately appeared on the back of his right hand. At the same time, his hand turned into a translucent spirit body, and a few strands of bright light rose from the back of the hand and dissipated in the air.

At this time, as long as you insert your right hand into the opening of the enemy's soul, you can tear his soul.

but!

It has to be close to Rhodes!

Rhodes entered Kingworth Academy, and it took less than a month to complete the full calculation. He didn't know any combat skills except handjobs, and he didn't take a single combat class.

Just jerking off and throwing stones.

It is very dangerous for him to rush up like this.

And Rhodes' style has always been steady, careful, and prudent. It is already the best choice to jerk off and throw stones in the distance. The battle with the plague monster is the most dangerous moment he has ever experienced. He does not want to relive such a moment at all. Stimulate.

This thing can only be put away first.

Rhodes thought.

I'll think about using it when I master the fighting skills.

Combat classes start in the second half of the year, which is very early.

Kingworth College does not have winter and summer vacations. The difference between the two semesters is the final exam. After the exam, there is about one to two weeks of rest time for students to exchange their credits for the materials they need. The credits of the department are also in this time to use.

Before that, there was a series of flame trophy selections, and this was Kashan's highest pursuit.

Rhodes stepped onto the altar, carefully held the yellow-green soul fire, and brought it into the hut.

Let go of your hand, and it floats quietly in the air.

The hut is empty, with only stone platforms and bookshelves.

But Rhodes knew that there must be more tools in the hut.

The buildings in the dream have specific pattern marks.

The eye pattern represents the soul altar. When he finds the fragment of the eye pattern and brings it back to the dream, the content of the altar will increase.

Similarly, the pattern representing the hut is a regular heptagon, as long as more regular heptagon fragments are found, its content will increase and the function of the hut will increase.

Rhodes walked to the stone platform, picked up a bag of phlogiston placed on the platform, and added it to the three-pronged candlestick, and the three candles lit up.

Under the subtle candlelight, an invisible aura enveloped the stone platform.

It seemed to be resurrected from a dead thing.

In front of the stone platform stands a large stone slab, on which many characters emerge, which are the materials for making various items.

Rhodes put the yellow-green soul fire on the stone platform.

[Soul Firewood] Below.

The words "a powerful and complete soul" lit up.

Rhodes returned to the soul altar, took the [Soul of the Evil Crow], and placed it on the stone platform.

"A Medium Whole Soul" also lights up.

Rhodes opened the storage under the stone platform, and put ten parts of the wriggling black thing on the stone platform.

"Ten Humanity" lit up.

Rhodes then placed a solidified golden light on the stone platform.

"One piece of divinity" lit up.

Rhodes then took out ten lumps of clotted ashes from the storage, which he bought for a hundred silver cords.

"Ten random monster ashes" lights up.

Rhodes finally took out a wedge-shaped, pure white stone, which he bought with [-] silver cables.

"A thirteen-gram brilliant stone" lit up.

Afterwards, [Soul Firewood] lit up as a whole.

Rhodes tapped lightly, and the stone platform seemed to have received an order. A chest of drawers slammed open, and a big hand flew out. It squeezed all the materials together, and strong light radiated from the hand.

Two big pestles flew over, frantically thrusting at the big hands.

Seeing Rhodes was a little painful, worried that the materials would be damaged by them.

Fortunately, the Ma Hua Pain incident did not appear here, and the production was 100% successful, not 90.00% nine point nine.

In less than half an hour, the production was over.

The big pestle flew back to their original position, opened his hand, jumped back to the drawer, and closed it with a slam.

A thing exuding pure white spiritual light landed on the stone table.

Through the brilliance, Rhodes saw that it was like countless entangled miscellaneous branches, in an irregular square shape, and flame-like rays of light bloomed from every gap in it.

This is the firewood for the soul?
Rhodes picked it up carefully, and the light passed through his palm without hindrance, like a phantom from another world.

How can I add it to the stars?

Rhodes looked at the bookshelf beside him, and there was only one empty book on it.

At this time, it is time to ask the book of mental retardation.

After getting along for this period of time, Rhodes found that this guy was not particularly reliable.

Although I did learn a lot of knowledge from it, many contents about dreams were learned from it, and it even helped Rhodes get a full score in the exam.

However, this guy often has some quirks. It doesn't like to spread out for a long time, and it doesn't like to display the same content all the time, and this knowledge is very obscure, Rhodes can't understand it after reading it once.

So whenever Rhodes studied for a long time, this guy would either close it suddenly, or turn the pages crazily, and even spelled two words with patterns on its cover.

retarded.

Rhodes was so angry that he was half dead, but he had nothing to do with it, so he could only slander it in his heart as the "book of mental retardation".

Rhodes took down the big book with character, and found that it was losing its temper again, and the pages were tight to prevent him from breaking it.

Rhodes had no choice but to feed it two red stones.

The big mouth formed by patterns swallowed it instantly, and the hard stone disappeared into the big black mouth without even making a sound.

The big mouth is closed, and the pattern returns to normal.

Only then did the big book spread out, allowing Rhodes to see its white and tender interior.

This guy!
Rhodes felt dumbfounded, so he had to ask it a question.

"How to add soul firewood to the stars?"

The pages of the book trembled, as if a little impatient.

[In-depth communication with the soul side of the obelisk]

In-depth communication?

Rhodes knew that he was touching the obelisk with his forehead.

that's fine?
The front of the obelisk is called the soul side?

While thinking, he stood up, picked up the firewood for his soul, and walked towards the obelisk.

The big book was closed with a bang, and I felt a little angry.

Rhodes came to the obelisk and lightly touched the surface of the obelisk with his forehead.

In an instant, the whole world was turned upside down, the black sky was upside down, and he was standing on the endless black plain.

Rhodes was taken aback, but quickly came to his senses, this is probably the inner world of the so-called soul side.

He glanced down, the soul firewood was being squeezed in his hand.

Looking up, the darkness stretches infinitely, there is nothing on the plain, the sky is pitch black, and there is no light at all.

Empty, dead silence, despair, depression, terror.

That's what Rhodes feels like here.

He took two steps forward, and soon found a dark mass. He squatted down and looked carefully. It was like a pile of extinguished bonfires, the ashes left by travelers in the wilderness.

Rhodes continued to walk out, and soon found more such bonfire ashes.

There are countless of them on the plain, all made of black residue and gray embers.

Just when Rhodes didn't know what to do, he suddenly saw two groups of flames.

He ran over quickly, and the ball was dark red. The flame was not strong, but it was very stable, and the dark red light illuminated the surroundings.

A line of text appeared on the firelight.

【Dark Devourer】

[Status: Constant burning]

[Star Energy: Soul Corrosion]

【Injection: Unavailable】

[Quantitative: Darkness of Abyss, Fog of Eternity, Blood of Ancient Ross]

【Position: Eternal Flame】

[Strength: Thirty]

[Description: abbreviated]

Is this what the stars look like up close?
Are those ashes extinguished stars?

Rhodes had some guesses in his heart, walked towards its right front, and soon found the blue flame.

Its fire light was weak and very unstable, the light blue light only illuminated a very small area.

【Broken Blue】

[Status: weak burning]

[Star Power: Resurrection of the Spirit]

[Injection: Spiritless Soul]

【Quantified: not available】

【Position: Dark Fire】

[Strength: Seven]

[Description: abbreviated]

Sure enough, then, I just need to put the soul firewood in it?
Rhodes stretched out his hand carefully, and the light blue flame touched his skin, licking him gently, without feeling hot at all.

He opened his hand, and the firewood fell into it.

In an instant, the whole campfire was different. It shrank inward suddenly, and then slowly stretched out. Not only did it stabilize a lot, but it also seemed to have reached a higher height.

The soul firewood landed in the very center of the bonfire, becoming the core of the entire bonfire.

Rhodes knew that at this time, as long as the state of [Broken Blue] was raised from weak burning to extreme burning, its potential would be improved.

This matter is very simple, just inject [Spiritless Soul].

Rhodes thought, and another line of text appeared in his eyes.

Soul Strength: 37
Soul Stars: 2
Humanity: 511
Divinity: 45
Spiritless Soul: 241
-

The obelisk is connected to his spirit, and he can do many things just by thinking about it in his mind.

Rhodes focused on the spiritless soul.

This is the part of the soul body that he separated after sacrificing his soul on the soul altar. It was absorbed by the obelisk and stored in the stele.

The next moment he concentrated his thoughts, sure enough, many black and white solidified objects appeared on his hands.

He sprinkled these solidified substances into the bonfire, and the flames quickly and violently ignited.

The state of the soul bonfire quickly changed from [weak burning] to [continuous burning], and the intensity increased from seven to eight.

It is worth noting that the soul strength has also changed from 37 to 38, which is exactly the sum of the strength of the two stars.

Rhodes nodded slightly, and wrote down another knowledge point.

With the addition of soulless souls, the bonfire became more and more intense, gradually changing from [continuous burning] to [blazing burning], then [excessive burning], and finally [extreme burning].

When its state reached [Extreme Combustion], the entire flame swelled up suddenly, and the rising blue light even overwhelmed another dark red bonfire.

Rhodes looked up and saw that Lan Huo was as tall as two people, and the text on it became.

【Broken Blue】

[Status: Ultimate Burning]

【Position: Blazing Fire】

[Strength: 77]

And his soul power becomes 107.
Rhodes showed a relieved smile.

I finally got stronger.
