the last king of darkness

Chapter 78 Soul Criticism
The sewers in the inner city are very complicated, like a maze, and some areas have obviously not been visited by living people for many years, but Professor Binns only needs to look at the sand, dust, and wall structure to know where they are, where to go, and where to go. Where there may be danger, where is safety.

Even know their history and who built them.

"This is the sewer built by the Tulu dynasty in the third era. The Tulu dynasty is a regime that advocates beauty. They believe that the more beautiful things are, the stronger their combat effectiveness is. Art is the bane of monsters. All their creations have a strong sense of art. Warriors They all need to wear gorgeous dresses to fight, even the blue bricks of the sewer."

"This is the auxiliary road built by the Mammon Empire. This empire loves nature, and these branch-like passages are their products."

"This is the product of giants, only they can build such a huge sewer."

"We have reached the Tilles area, and we will go around the east area to the middle area of ​​Alfred."

"Here, here, here, these three points are the areas we need to explore for this operation. If they were not built by the Habakuks, it proves that there is a fault in this period of our history."

Rhodes asked, "Is there any danger?"

Professor Binns put away the messy map, his calm expression remained unchanged:

"Yes, but not too much. The main danger is that our map in that area is not complete, so we can't get lost, so our mission this time also includes exploration and completion of the map."

"Will there be doomsday believers?"

Professor Binns glanced at him, and his tone was still calm: "Impossible, this is the key area for exploration, and explorers like us often come here. Doomsday believers will only choose unexplorable, abandoned, uninhabited, Less dangerous areas serve as lairs."

Rhodes nodded, not the best.

If there is, he doesn't mind collecting some souls, and listening to the voices in their souls, maybe he can find some clues.

"Ye Yi, no one has been to the next part of the road for about two years. There may be some threats. You take the lead."

Ye Yi said loudly, "Yes! Teacher!"

The team continued to set off after a short rest, and Molly left a magic lamp on the spot as a mark.

Yeyi talked more during this section of the road. He kept boasting how strong he was, boasting that his soul characteristic "Conjuration Talent" was one of the seven strongest characteristics, and even the soul of Chief Theodore Theodore Features are the same as his.

He received a lot of attention in the academy, and it was not appropriate for others to ask him to be a special student, and his spiritual vision was also very high.

In short, this operation is all up to him, Rhodes, you can just watch from behind.

And when Rhodes found out that he could reap humanity by dealing with it casually, the whole sewer was filled with his boastful voice.

"Don't look at me as an eighth-level combatant, let me tell you, in the sewer, I can't fight any special-level combatants."

"You may not believe it if you say it, but in the sewer, it is not about being stronger than anyone else's absolute psychic power. It requires experience, intelligence, and unparalleled observation skills, as well as caution, prudence, and stability. Otherwise, no matter how strong you are, it will be useless. Once the commotion becomes serious, the indescribable existence in the depths is disturbed, and the entire royal city will suffer disaster."

"Hey, look, there is a monster in front of you, you may not see it, it doesn't matter, I tell you, this is a maggot man, it is made from the corpses of living people infected by black mist in a dark and rotten environment, it belongs to For monsters, based on the soul waveforms, psychic energy fluctuations, and the monster's own characteristics, I preliminarily judged that its level is low-level, and its psychic level is between 2-3."

"At this time, ordinary people may rush to chop it up, but this is a sewer, we need to be more cautious, we must not directly go up and shoot it..."

boom!
White light flashed, and the real silver bullet crossed a pure white trajectory, hit the monster's head, and then exploded, blasting its maggot-filled head into powder.

The monster's asphalt-like black soul was torn apart along with its body, turning into countless black dust.

【The soul of the maggot man】

Not bad.

Rhodes was delighted.

It only took him two seconds to accumulate energy for this heavy blow.

Before, he would take five or six seconds.

I really became stronger.

But Ye Yi jumped three meters high as if a real silver bullet had been shot into his Ashley, and shouted angrily, "What are you doing?"

Rhodes replied casually: "Clean up the filth and hunt monsters."

Ye Yi said angrily: "How can you kill like this? How do you know if there are other monsters around it? What if you startle the monster group and attract a powerful existence that can't be dealt with?"

Rhodes replied: "I know, I saw it, there are no other monsters."

"Hehe, how much is your spiritual vision? You are not allowed to lie, whoever lies will have his penis rotten."

"99."

"Hahahaha, only ninety... Uh, you're 99?"

"Ah."

Ye Yi let out a "burp" like a duck being pinched by its neck, but he quickly adjusted his state and said disdainfully:
"Ninety-nine is nothing special, it's just a little bit taller than me. There are many people with perfect vision, and I often meet them."

Rhodes asked curiously, "How much spiritual vision do you have?"

"Nine...33, it's not important. What's important is that you are sure you can kill it with one shot? What if you can't kill it? It makes a noise, and it may startle monsters out of sight, or it may attack Unstable walls that have not been psychically strengthened lead to the collapse of the sewer, do you understand?"

Although I feel that this guy is a bit unreliable, but for the sake of team harmony, Rhodes still explained: "I saw a big weak hole in its spiritual power. If you shoot it, even if it doesn't die, it will enter a coma state. .”

"That's called freezing and freezing! It's a phenomenon in which the monster's spiritual energy is blocked and the soul is disordered. Are you a special student?"

"Yeah, look, this is my special student badge."

"Special students need to understand the importance of discipline better, don't do this next time, and listen to my instructions."

"Ok."

Ye Yi barely found a step and came down.

The excavation team continued to move forward, and the air gradually became cloudy and full of stench.

Molly handed the purifying ointment.

This is a group of small transparent jelly, which is cool and refreshing when stuffed into the nose, which can purify the air and avoid poisoning.

Ye Yi found a new topic:

"Purification ointment and phlogiston are our most important supplies, and it will be very troublesome if they are used up."

Rhodes asked sincerely: "Then why don't you bring more?"

Ye Yi said angrily: "Wouldn't it be better for us to move the warehouse?"

Rhodes' heart moved, they couldn't take the warehouse with them, but he could.

It is very simple for him to enter and exit the dreamland, just do the lightning gesture.

The only problem is that the cargo volume is too small, and only what is held in the palm of the hand can be brought into the dream

And you can't go in and out of the dreamland too frequently in a short period of time, otherwise your spirit will be overwhelmed.

How to take advantage of this?
Rhodes continued to scan his surroundings while thinking.

And Ye Yi seemed to have regained his confidence, and began to boast about his rich survival experience.

"Look, the soil here is different in thickness and hardness and density. It has been stepped on by inhuman things. I'm sure there must be monsters around here, but I don't know where..."

Bang bang bang!
Three shots went out, and three black lines flew from almost invisible distance.

【Small piece of soul】

【Small piece of soul】

【The soul of the maggot man】

Not bad.

The marksmanship has also improved. Mina is worthy of being a broad-minded young lady, and she taught it really well.

Ye Yi said angrily, "What are you doing?"

"I see them."

"Do you know if there are any other monsters behind them?"

"I know."

Ye Yi choked, remembering Rhode's identity as a complete clairvoyant, he could only keep his mouth shut and continue to lead the way.

Rhodes followed behind with a spirit gun, and the eyes of the soul were fully functioning.

It has to be said that Ye Yi is really a lucky star. Under his leadership, Rhodes can always meet lonely monsters. These low-level monsters have huge flaws. As long as he aims at the flaws, they are basically killed with one blow.

Ye Yi, on the other hand, was extremely depressed. He was always one step behind before discovering the monster, and he couldn't even get out.

Things changed when they stepped out of the area, though.

This is a completely different huge space. The semicircular dome made of gray boulders is hidden in the darkness, and the stone pillars carved with hideous faces are scattered in the black mud. The air is very humid, and water drops are coming from the depths of the darkness The sound of falling.

Professor Binns, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Be careful, something is wrong here, the psionic-enhanced wall is damaged, look at the soil on the ground, there is a huge thing coming here."

Ye Yi's face darkened: "Teacher, let's check first?"

Professor Binns nodded slightly.

"Everyone spread out the inspections, but don't stay too far away. Rhodes is in charge of vigilance. If there is any abnormality, tell me in time."

Ye Yi untied the lamp around his waist, carefully observed the details on the ground, and exhorted:

"Rhode, you don't understand history, and you don't have the ability to detect, so the job of finding clues like this can only be done by us..."

"careful!"

Rhode shouted.

Ye Yi was startled, and a giant claw appeared in the air, tearing him apart.

boom!
The spirit gun fired, and the real silver bullet hit the transparent air and exploded.

The silver light of the explosion scattered, the giant claw disappeared into the air, and the torn Nightwing turned into a transparent phantom.

The next moment, his body emerged from thirty yards away, and fell into the black mud with a bang.

"Bah bah bah!"

Nightwing jumped up.

"I'm really unskilled in using phantom, otherwise I can kill it with a backhanded sword!"

Professor Binns raised his voice: "It's a ghost hound! Evil spirits, when they attack, their giant claws appear. It is a high-level, and it will be advanced soon, so the hunting range will become larger. Pay attention to its raised hand, Hitting it on the head while grabbing it down will directly stop its psionic energy and cause the soul to freeze."

"But I can't see..."

"it is good!"

Rhodes stared at the mass of black souls, and the energy storage of the spirit gun in his hand had reached 90.00%.

The monster wandered around them, as if observing its prey. It had a huge head and unusually developed forelimbs, and the waveform of its soul was changing from slight ups and downs to steep and rapid.

Rhodes recalled the old blind teacher Moore's words. According to his understanding, when the undulating wave like a sand dune becomes vibrating like a spring, it changes from a non-level to a full-level, that is, from an unformed monster to a monster. Form monsters.

The process in the middle is probably the level of monsters. Old Blind Eyes didn't teach them at that time, but Rhodes has already understood it by himself.

This one is close to the limit.

Its soul is restless, and its psionic energy is turbulent, so it must not be able to bear it for too long.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, it pounced on Rhodes, raised its huge forelimbs high, and patted him with sharp claws.

boom!
The spirit gun exploded instantly, and the bullet hit the head.

The explosion directly interrupted its psychic energy operation, and the Necromancer Hound fell from the sky and fell to the ground. The psychic energy was stagnant and disordered, and a huge hole appeared in the soul.

this moment.

Rodford's heart was full, and he didn't choose to shoot. A sickle pattern appeared in his mind instantly, and powerful spiritual energy rushed in, quickly filling it.

In the eyes of Professor Binns, Ye Yi, and Molly, this 16-year-old boy who was always calm and indifferent suddenly exuded an extremely terrifying aura.

His right hand became transparent, and a sickle-shaped moon hook pattern appeared on the back of the hand.

Phosgene steamed from his right hand like boiling psionic energy.

He raised his right hand like a god of death raising a scythe, making their souls tremble instinctively.

Both Ye Yi and Molly were stunned. They had never seen such soul characteristics and abilities before.

Professor Binns lost his composure for the first time, his cloudy eyes widened, and he muttered.

"What is this? Why would he..."

Rhodes tipped his toes, leaped over, and thrust his translucent right hand into the hound's huge soul hole.

For a moment, Rhodes felt as if he had touched countless tiny strings.

He instinctively grasped, pinched all the strings, and twitched violently.

hiss--

An invisible hiss sounded in the ear, like the mourning of the soul.

The dazzling phosgene sprayed out like an exploding pressure cooker, the soul of the dead hound exploded directly, and the remnant body exploded into powder.

[Soul of the Undead Hound]

[Spiritless Soul +12]
