the last king of darkness

Chapter 763 Gluttony

Every dead tree in Horus's face jumped and cheered.

He had never been so happy. The depression that had been suppressed for more than 50 years was all released at this moment. He was not the weakest Archbishop in the history of Trollian, but the strongest.

Unprecedented self-confidence returned to his heart, making him look like a blooming old tree, a dead tree in spring.

"This is the power of light!"

Horus was intoxicated by this flawless arc of law. The bright light danced around him, sometimes turning into a twisted wave shape, sometimes turning into a double semicircle with peaks.

"I feel the complete Law of Bright Light, which is bright, shining, and brilliant divine light. It is not the most comprehensive characteristic at all. It has only one function, and that is to pierce the heart of the black mist."

He opened his hands, and countless light spots instantly passed through everyone's bodies.

"what?"

Lovia looked at his hands.

"My spiritual energy has become faster, running more smoothly, like a fish in the water or a bird in the sky."

Everyone present had the same feeling, and some even felt that his soul was beginning to restless, which was a sign of growth.

Except for Rhodes, he didn't feel any changes.

Horus smiled and said: "I penetrated all the black mist lurking in your souls... Destroying the black mist is healing the soul."

He turned around, jumped into the holy fire with a slight leap.

The raging holy fire also became gentle at this moment, making a soft buzzing sound, as if welcoming his arrival.

Horus quickly walked to the center of the holy fire, flicked his fingers, and billions of light points passed through the king's soul.

A few wisps of invisible black smoke emerged from the king's eyebrows and disappeared in the golden light of the holy fire.

"Sure enough, there is still so much residual fine black mist in the king's soul. No wonder it will take so many days to wake up. As the guardian of the Holy Fire, Your Majesty is a thorn in the black mist."

Wang's eyebrows clearly stretched. After experiencing the treatment of Soul Master Priscilla, the advancement of the Holy Fire, and the purification of Horus, his awakening date was greatly advanced.

Horus expected that it would only take a day or two at most before the king would open his eyes.

He stepped out of the sacred fire and told everyone the good news.

Cheers once again echoed throughout the Holy Fire Sacrifice Ground, lasting for a long time.

Their king finally emerged from the conspiracy of ancient evil thoughts.

No matter when, only when their king sits in the holy fire can their hearts fall to the ground and feel stable.

At the same time, a bright golden light flashed in front of Rhodes' eyes.

——Restart the spirit ascension ceremony, divinity +100
——Reclaim the inheritance, divinity +100
——Strengthen the spiritual curtain, divinity +100
——Provides resources, enhances the overall strength of the Orderly, brings hope, divinity +1200
"1500 divinity?"

Rhodes looked at the golden light on the obelisk in surprise. He never expected to gain so much divinity this time.

"Forget it about strengthening the Spirit Curtain, why can I get 100 divinity when I restart the Spirit Ascension Ceremony? Aren't taking back the inheritance and providing resources the same thing? Why is there a separate item?"

Facing the divinity beyond imagination, the Book of Knowledge also smiled and replied in a relaxed tone: "This shows that the ascension ceremony is of unimaginable importance. Restarting it is a good start for Trolian. Trollian Lean will be deeply aware of its importance, and the impact will be far-reaching. As for regaining the heritage, well..."

The Book of Knowledge has not come up with a reasonable explanation. Taking back the inheritance itself has no meaning. Only by using it for human beings can we gain divinity, but the last item obviously includes the function of taking back the inheritance.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be a separate item.

But dreams are absolutely impossible to make mistakes. This is its lowest mechanism, the foundation of all existence, and its deepest secret. Even if you suspect that the owner is an ancient evil, you cannot doubt that the dream is wrong.

"Maybe there is something special about the inheritance..."

The Book of Knowledge fell into deep thought, but its thoughts were quickly interrupted.

"Book, what is the origin of Horus?"

Rhodes stared at Horus's soul, and a slender arc of light clearly appeared in his soul.

The perception of his soul told him that this was the source of the Archbishop's bright light, and its intensity was as high as an unprecedented 25 parts.

However, he has never seen this form of source law.

"It is obviously a powerful source, but it can shake the fundamental source of [Sacrifice]. If there are more than 50 copies, then the fundamental source cannot be stopped."

The book of knowledge shook the page: "No, master, according to the measurement standard of dreams, 25 sources are a complete source law without any defects, which means that he has gathered all the fragments of sources under the characteristic of Mingguang. , it cannot exceed 25 sources, unless it has other sources. Because of this, although it is only a strong source in terms of position, it has the capital to rival the fundamental source."

Rhodes pondered: "25 copies?"

He remembered very clearly that without using the regular sources of Colorful Dreams to upgrade, 25 sources were needed.

The Book of Knowledge nodded: "Now, your Archbishop is only one step away from the True King. As long as he completes the True King Ceremony, he can become the true King of Bright Light."

Rhodes exclaimed: "It's difficult to upgrade all 25 powerful sources, isn't it?"

"it's out of the question."

The Book of Knowledge denies:
"Complete the source upgrade of 25 powerful sources at one time, I am afraid that the sea of ​​sources will collapse. Generally, he completes one to two copies, so that he becomes a true king with 1 basic source and 24 powerful sources. , he will slowly upgrade other powerful sources, and when there is already a copy of the Supreme Source Law in the soul, subsequent upgrades will be relatively easy."

Only then did Rhodes realize that it was no wonder there was such a big gap between true kings. A true king with 1 copy of the fundamental source and a true king with 25 copies of the fundamental source were simply not on the same scale.

As expected, I am still the true king of my childhood.

Even the great king's psychic powers are stronger than mine.

But then I thought about it, when the king was at the king level, his spiritual power had reached the limit of level 17. This was a king with 4000 million thousand kek of spiritual power.

In comparison, 1000 million thousand kilometres of spiritual energy is nothing more than that.

Of course, the power of the King of Bright Light still makes people sigh. Just a ray of remnant soul allowed a person with Horus's qualifications to reach the critical state in only three rounds of the spiritual ascension ceremony.

After the cheers at the Holy Fire Sacrifice subsided, Rhodes told everyone the good news.

When they heard that Horus was already in front of the true king's threshold, everyone had expressions of disbelief.

"We are going to have a third true king..."

Such thoughts echoed in everyone's mind, but no one said it out loud.

They are afraid that if they speak out, they will wake up from their sweet dreams.

Seeing their expressions, Rhodes quickly added: "Of course, the True King Ceremony cannot be performed yet. Human beings do not have enough luck to carry the second... er, third True King."

Percival asked anxiously: "What should we do?"

Rhodes smiled and said: "Don't worry, Percival, have you forgotten the final ascension ceremony I mentioned?"

Percival suddenly came back to his senses. The final ascension ceremony was originally the last step to become a god in ancient times, but this road has been cut off, and the ascension ceremony has no final step.

Instead, there is the True King Ceremony.

But in the end, the spirit-ascension ritual did not disappear from now on. After modifications, it became a new ritual that allowed the True King to fuse the deified source material. Although it could not form a complete divine source base, it could also carry the soul. and the ability of the fundamental source, so as to make room for the new true king.

"After the king wakes up, we can perform this specially modified ritual. I still have 6 copies of the deified source matter, which should be enough to make room for Horus."

No one spoke, the Holy Fire Sacrifice was quiet, but the ecstatic mood was conveyed in the silence, and everyone's eyes were shining with hope.Suddenly, Rovia shouted: "The rise of Trorian is unstoppable!"

Everyone's minds were shaken by this, and he seemed to shout out their voices.

Horus raised his right hand, as if he had a telepathic connection, and everyone made the same move and shouted in unison.

"Long live humanity, which is nothing but light and fire!"

-

In such an exciting atmosphere, Horus formally proposed Trorian's new round of comprehensive expansion plan to Rhodes.

Although the king would wake up in a day or two, they couldn't wait even a day or two.

Rhodes looked at this bold plan in surprise. In this plan, Trolian will go out of all the big cities in the four directions and expand in the four directions at the same time. Its momentum is fierce and its power is violent. This is unprecedented in Trorian's history. If this plan is completed on time, Trorian will go from being a kingdom in a mountain valley in the Dead Ember Mountains to occupying the entire Ashland Continent in one to two years. , a huge country that is part of the Dead Land Continent.

Its area is hundreds of times larger than today.

"Well, do we have the power to complete such a huge expansion?"

After reading it, Rhodes raised his eyes in confusion and looked at the people in front of him.

Percival smiled and said: "A human country with three true kings will definitely be able to accomplish such a feat."

Dalin took a puff of his cigarette and said with a smile: "Although the combat power on paper is not enough, we believe that we can create miracles again."

Rovia said: "We still have Kalil's secret troops. The chief priest Megan said that he has made great progress. Kalil's combat power is expanding crazily, and the Industrial Machinery Research Institute has also produced more The psychic constructs and forbidden weapons are also being restored, and our actual combat power is not just what is on paper."

Armando said: "Sir Rhodes, everything depends on your decision."

Rhodes frowned slightly. He couldn't make up his mind, so he asked the Book of Knowledge and the Book of the Future.

The Book of the Future mused: "I can't see a clear future. It's chaotic, confused, turbid, and floating shadows. It's unknown, and there may be some danger."

The Book of Knowledge turned over the pages and said in a very serious tone: "Master, as the former decision-maker of the human coalition, I have used my supreme wisdom to help them achieve countless victories. I can tell you responsibly. You, it is unreasonable to do this. Trorian's power is limited. Why don't you concentrate all your combat power first, completely annex the former land of the Saint Rey Kingdom to the west, collect everyone's material resources, and after becoming stronger, Then turn around and expand to the north, southeast and north?”

Rhodes felt that what the Book of Knowledge said made sense, and immediately put forward his idea to everyone.

Dalin sighed: "As expected of Lord Rhodes, your thoughts are really thoughtful, but you don't understand Trolian's current combat power. The western front is too small for us to expand. The most important thing is that too much combat power has gathered. In one direction, it will put a heavy burden on our logistics."

Percival said: "Our logistics and transportation capabilities are far unable to keep up with the growth rate of our combat power."

Rhodes felt slightly regretful, but when he was asking again, the Book of the Future suddenly shouted: "Master, this problem will be solved soon. I can see that Trorian will make a new breakthrough soon!"

"Cough cough!"

Rhodes coughed and showed an enigmatic smile.

"Don't worry, this problem will be solved soon, just do as I say."

He turned around, pointed in the southwest direction, and said loudly.

"Expand westward with all our strength and take back our homeland!"

At this moment, everyone's blood boiled. They knew that Trolian was about to enter a new era.

An era that belongs to them.

-

The year 1326 in the Teslevian Gregorian calendar.

No. The fifth day of the twelfth month.

Trolian's vigorous expansion officially started on this day.

The scale of this war will exceed the sum of the previous ones.

After coming out of the Holy Fire Sacrifice, everyone quickly got into busy work.

And Rhodes finally found some free time and returned to the dreamland.

The divinity is enough, he is going to light up his No. 19 star.

Big Star [Glutton].

This was the first time that Rhodes ignited stars other than those recognized by the Book of Knowledge, and he only relied on his intuition.

"I hope I'm not wrong."

Rhodes thought silently.

His current upper limit of stars is still twenty. If this big star is ignited, he will only have one empty space left.

If the limit cannot be broken after igniting another giant star, then he can only hope that the star can be quantified and awakened.

The Book of Knowledge says: "[Glutton] requires 3 King Souls, 3 Power Sources, 100 Soul Firewood, and 100 Soul Flowers."

Rhodes nodded. The dream now has 1725 divinity, which is enough to make 100 soul firewood. The only thing missing is the king soul. However, in the process of obtaining the Pope's inheritance, he killed a [Corrupted Kun Dragon's Soul] ], killing countless "corrupted cat demons".

Originally there were two king souls missing, but unexpectedly, after using [Destruction of Darkness] to kill all the "corrupted cat demons" in the heritage location, their souls actually merged into two king souls in the soul altar.

[Corrupted Nine-Headed Cat Demon’s Soul]

[The soul of the corrupted nine-tailed cat demon]

In this regard, the Book of Knowledge explains: "They were originally two king-level monsters, but their special abilities allowed them to break down into smaller monsters. This may be one of their soul characteristics."

Rhodes didn't pay too much attention to this. Weak king-level monsters were no longer a threat to him and could be killed casually. Even missing two king souls would only delay him for a few days.

He didn't expect such a thing to happen, which saved him some trouble.

Rhodes entered the Soul Wasteland, came to the ashes of the stars, and put all the needed items into it.

Gray flames soared into the sky before his eyes. It was so inconspicuous, like a swaying gray cloth.

Gray text appears on the canvas.

【Gluttony】
