The Last King of Darkness

Rhodes came to the top of the fortress surrounded by the crowd, and every soldier came to embrace them. After that, Iger turned into white smoke, wrapped the two of them, and plunged into the darkness.

The thick black mist blows towards the face, and the shimmering light around the waist can only dispel the darkness around him.

When the shining fortress went away and disappeared into the vast darkness, Rhodes had a feeling of being far away from heaven and falling into the abyss.

Bach used the astrolabe to find their way, a magical crystal compass that ensured they wouldn't get lost in the endless darkness.

Iger wrapped them like a white cloud and flew to the depths of the corpse wasteland.

In the originally empty wasteland, monsters from the Kuroshio can be seen everywhere. Most of them are mainly cowardly demons and ghouls, their eyes glowing red, and they are chaotically rushing in all directions.

As for the three people who passed by from the sky, they did not respond.

But the air is not completely safe, there are flying blade demons, wandering evil spirits, and some strange unknown monsters.

Rhode tried his best to instruct Iger to avoid them, and the too frequent change of direction made Iger, who could not see anything, a little dissatisfied.

"Hey, I can consume a lot of flying spirits like this."

Rhode hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Shall we kill?"

Bach shook his head and said briefly: "Hunting, not killing, hide yourself."

Rhode didn't quite understand this sentence until he picked up his head and saw an incomparably gigantic existence passing through the light cone of his line of sight above the thick black fog.

When it got dark, Bach covered his eyes.

"Don't, look at the sky... too high, you will be blind."

Rhode bowed his head, and Bach's cold hand was removed from his eyes.

At this time, Rhode felt that he was crying, his eyes were burning, and there was a fear in his mind rising from his heart. If he looked at it for a few more seconds, he might be really blind.

"What, what is this?" Rhode couldn't help asking.

Bach shook his head, but his words remained brief.

"In the dark, there are indescribable horrors, don't explore, don't approach, otherwise, bad luck will come."

An incomprehensible fear rose from his heart. The confidence and dreams built up by a series of victories during this period were suddenly shattered. Rhode felt that his understanding of the world was only superficial and superficial.

He thought about it a lot at once, and couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever met this kind of existence? Have you... defeated?"

Bach stared at the astrolabe and answered after a moment of silence.

"What you said, I don't know, we have defeated many incomparably powerful enemies, but we have never met an unknown existence in the depths of the real darkness.

There have been several major ruptures in the history of Trorian. The most recent major rupture, many scholars believe that the rapid expansion of the king city at that time, touched the black and caused the mass extinction, Rhodes felt. Incredible: "Can it develop even if it is extinct?

"It is said that the fire of civilization was preserved. The remnants of human beings hid the holy fire underground. After the disaster passed, the holy fire was rekindled. It took hundreds of years to rise again, but many precious historical materials in the big library were also lost. , making it difficult for us to clearly know the earlier history."

Rhodes asked blankly: "If the fire of human civilization is so fragile, what are we protecting with so much effort?"

Iger smiled and said: "Of course it is to protect ourselves, protect our beliefs, our homes, our relatives and friends, everything we love, the existence itself is the meaning, we don't have to keep looking back, the flowers that have withered can't bloom again. , but the flowers left behind have a hundred ways to bloom.

Bach also showed a rare smile: "Our fire will not go out."

"That's right." Iger shouted:

"We will succeed in this mission, kill the evil spirits, block the Kuroshio, return to the king's city, and grow taller!"

Rhodes let out a breath.

Fortunately, your wish is only to grow taller, not to go back to your hometown to get married.

This time it should have been a long time to cast steadily, Iger wrapped the two and landed at the foot of a hill.

"is it here?"

Iger glanced at the hill, which was bare and nothing.

Bach shook his head.

"under."

He circled around the hill and quickly found a narrow corridor. "Go."

He only said one word and took the lead to get in.

The road was pitch-dark, and corrupt black flocs covered every place. The three of them turned on their spiritual vision and walked quickly to the depths under the leadership of Bach.

The silence pressed against the eardrums, and the deeper he went, the more wrecks Rhode saw. Most of them were extremely corrupted, but they remained normal over the years. Any slight disturbance would cause them to collapse quickly. It looks like a man-made tomb, rather like a nest dug by some kind of beast. These corpses are more and more leftover corpses. There are also a lot of broken armors. They don’t have much in the black fog. Corrupted, still can barely see the original appearance These armors are mostly made of brass, the shape is simple and thick, the damage is full of claws and gnawing marks, the corpses inside have long become black flocs, with the sound of their footsteps When the flow disappeared, it collapsed to the ground and Rhode couldn't help asking.

"They are the Twilight Legion?"

Bach nodded silently.

"How many years ago was this? Why don't we have this legion now? Has their organization been cancelled?"

Iger replied: "They are the Legion of the Third Era and have nothing to do with us."

"What is the Third Era?"

Iger glanced at him strangely:

The story of one woman and two making a mountain

, Legend has it that in this era, the light of fire shines in all directions, the land is full of human cities, and brave warriors hunt around to hunt monsters in the dark. The darkness can only occupy remote areas and a small area, but I don't know why it was destroyed later.

"What era are we in?"

"The fourth era, the era of the extinction of fire, also known as the era of darkness, human beings have only a limited number of fire king cities left, the holy fire cannot even shine outside the king city, darkness is all over the earth, monsters and monsters are rampant, we can only Shrinking behind the thick walls, living under the protection of the sacred fire, according to our calendar, this is the beginning of the Tesrivian Gregorian calendar.

"1325?"

"Um."

The history is heavy and the households here existed more than a thousand years ago. If common sense, they should have been a pile of bones, and the armor should have corroded into slag.

This is obviously the influence of the black fog.

Rhodes couldn't help but ask, "What about the first and second eras?"

Iger replied calmly:

"The first era is the era in the concept. We generally call it the era of chaos. Everything at that time was a piece of chaos, and it was the era before civilization appeared."

"The Second Era is called the Era of Gods. It is an era in which gods and mortals coexist in legends. It is said to be an era in which no black fog exists. But I am not very clear.

Rhodes asked again:

"Then do we know where the black mist came from?"

Iger smiled bitterly: "The academic materials derived from this topic can fill the entire sword gate. I can only tell you that this mist full of evil and curses came out of nowhere, and it suddenly appeared one day. , shrouded the whole world, monsters survive and grow up in the black fog, people gradually lose their minds and become monsters in the black fog, and other creatures do the same.

"Only fire can dispel it."

He touched the lamp with the peripheral light around his waist, and added, "There is also a power derived from fire."

Rhodes asked: "Where did our animals and plants come from? I heard that we also have a city of beasts, a city of wood, a city of mushrooms and so on."

Iger said dissatisfied: "Why do you have so many strange questions?"

"Part of it is the preserved seeds."

Bach gave Rod's rare answer.

"Part of it is the wreckage we found and put it into the holy white tree to grow.

Rhode was surprised: "The holy white tree still has such a function?"

Iger showed a proud smile, "You don't know a lot. If you have time to go to the Botanical Garden in Shangcheng District, you will know why it is called the tree of life."

His vigilance was a little relaxed. After all, he didn't find any abnormality after walking for a long time. Even Rhodes couldn't help but wonder if the higher evil spirits had already run away.

Suddenly, Bach raised a hand and blocked them.

"What's wrong?"

Rhode was alert for a moment, and the Eye of Soul glanced around, but still found nothing unusual.

Bach said calmly: "I smell decay, death, taboo and devouring, and it's just ahead."

It was the first time that Rhodes met someone whose nose was more sensitive than his eyes.

"what should we do?"

Bach said succinctly: "My characteristics have reached six fireworks, and I can use a very powerful blow."

"If it is killed, Iger will drag us away and return to Jianguan."

"If it didn't kill, Rhodes used the psionic cannon.

After speaking, he closed his mouth.

Rhode felt something was wrong, and when he was about to ask, Iger suddenly interjected and asked, "Mr. Bach, your very powerful blow must have a price, right?"

Bach glanced at him and replied calmly:

"My characteristics will drop a tier."

Iger heaved a sigh of relief: "It's okay."

Bach continued to walk forward, Rhode had to follow behind more and more, the space became bigger and bigger, the rotten breath went straight to the nose, the sound of slamming continued to appear with their pace, piles after piles. The corpse collapsed, the armor scattered.

Suddenly, Bach stopped.

"It's a ghoul."

What? "Lord looked around, but didn't see that the physical isolation in the abnormal passage was too thick, and he couldn't see very far.

"Smelly, greedy, ancient, it has been digging up the corpses of the Twilight Knights here and devouring them for hundreds of years, even thousands of years."

Both Rhodes and Iger became nervous: "Isn't our enemy a high-level evil spirit?"

"Yes, a high-level evil spirit is being born from the body of the ghoul. The ghoul has eaten countless corpses and gathered the remnants of countless knights. They gathered and nurtured in the body of the ghoul. After going through many transformations, he has become a powerful high-level peace spirit

"It is about to break and be born."

Iger was shocked: "What should we do? Shall we kill it quickly?"

Bach did not answer.

Continue to walk forward, but the pace is much more careful, the nose keeps twitching, like smelling the smell in the air.

Mei hatred, hatred, hatred, in addition to hatred, only devoured and killed.

A strong eclipse field, it has a special connection with the evil spirits in the wasteland, and it is eating their souls. "

Rhode suddenly thought that when he hunted evil spirits in the wasteland~www.readwn.com~ they had very few souls, and their spiritual bodies were full of loopholes.

At that time, I thought it was born like this, but I didn't expect it to be eroded.

Bach continued: "Its driven shell of its metamorphosis hunts fresh living creatures and souls for it.

Rhode instantly thought of his experience of killing powerful monsters twice without gaining a soul.

Is it its body?

Such a powerful monster turned out to be just its body?

Bach's tone became anxious for the first time:

"We're going a little faster, one of its husks is returning, and its spirit body smells of hunger and can't wait."

The ground quickened his pace, his psychic energy rose from him, and quickly gathered Rhodes and Iger to follow him nervously. Suddenly, his feet lightened, the whole ground collapsed, and countless corpses and broken armors crumbled into pieces. In the sight of Rhodes, he saw an unprecedented huge spiritual body
