The Holy Fire Sacrifice is the core of Trolian, the foundation for the survival of the entire human kingdom, and the source of light and fire. Logically speaking, there is no safer location than there in the entire Trolian Kingdom. King He also said that he is invincible under the holy fire.
If you send the King of the Deep Sea to the Holy Fire Sacrifice, the only outcome will be to be killed by the King.
But Rhodes was somewhat worried, what if?
Isn’t this how all those unimaginable accidents happen? Besides, the prophecy predicts that the king will encounter a great disaster.
Couldn't it be this time?
But almost the next second, a dark black text flashed in front of Rhodes' eyes.
[The Dark Soul of Asdeth, King of the Deep Sea]
【The King's Soul】
[Have 1 powerful source]
[Has 10 sources]
[Have 50 copies of Nightmare Fuel]
[Asdeth was one of the twelve giant kings. He was killed in the Battle of the Giant King's Court. After his death, he was corrupted and became one of the sources of terror in the spiritual world]
Seeing that long string of words, Rhodes' face almost broke out in laughter.
The soul of the King of the Deep Sea did not disappoint him.
This powerful king-level monster not only has 1 powerful source, but also 10 sources and 50 nightmare fuel.
If he gets another soul like this, he can light the next big star!
If this continues, maybe it won't be long before he truly enters the special realm, and his dreamland will become even more powerful.
And when he gets the dream fragments he wants in the ice prison, the speed will be even faster!
"Master, you succeeded!"
The voice of the Book of Knowledge came from my mind.
"Asdeth, the King of the Deep Sea, was killed by us!"
Rhodes was overjoyed and looked at the dark soul carefully several times and asked, "Book, where is the star soul of the Dark Devourer?"
"In its ashes."
Rhodes felt a little hard to understand: "Why is it in the ashes?"
"Because it is not only a star soul, but also contains the energy of stars. It must have a carrier. After the former owner separated it, it must have been sealed in some physical material. Therefore, it must now be lying in the remains left by the King of the Deep Sea. In ashes.”
Rhodes immediately felt sure that the King of the Deep Sea was killed by the King at the Holy Fire Sacrifice. The ashes left behind by him will never be lost. He can just go back and find an excuse to get the ashes.
With his authority, even the ashes of a king-level monster would be no problem.
At this moment, with the disappearance of the King of the Deep Sea, the dark deep sea disappeared.
The tower was suddenly illuminated by starlight.
The doll's phantom slowly dissipated. It had no sense of presence in this battle, but Rhodes saw it seizing the gaps in the battle many times to add as many wounds to the King of the Deep as possible.
Considering its psychic strength, which is less than level 12, it is definitely an extraordinary performance.
If the battle scene is changed to a dream, and some divinity is given to it, the combat effectiveness will definitely be different.
Rhodes retracted his thoughts, raised his head, and suddenly found that the starlight was dissipating.
He clearly felt that the spirit of the Queen of Stars was disappearing.
"Queen...are you leaving?"
"Yes, little Rhodes..."
The gentle voice of the Queen of Stars rang in my ears, carrying infinite nostalgia and irreversible determination.
"I am just a collection of past trajectories, marks left by time, and echoes that once sounded. My existence is not allowed...Thank you for allowing me to have this wonderful time and the experience of fighting side by side with you. It’s one of my best memories, and although nothing will be left of it after this, I’m still grateful.”
The starry sky dissipates a hundred times faster, the purple light quickly dims, and the spirit of the Queen of Stars is about to dissipate.
This departure is forever.
I don’t know why, but there was a trace of reluctance in Rhodes’ heart. Perhaps it was because of the amazing battle just now. The Queen of Stars showed powerful and changeable methods, including meteorites, gravity fields, slow time, teleportation, and large-scale long-term attacks. Distance movement in time and space.
This is the realm of stars, space and time, gravity and earth.
As the strongest person in the Star Kingdom, the Star Queen has the strongest power in these three fields.
Her star characteristics are the most complete.
But now, this soul characteristic has become extinct. Without the purest star source, no one can obtain the mysterious star protection.
Those are not "stars" in dreams, but stars in the outermost spiritual world that are infinitely deep, infinitely far, and infinitely large, outside the high-level spiritual world, and are real stars that can affect the material world with their motion trajectories.
How great it would be if someone could control such a power and become his comrade-in-arms!
Rhodes was extremely regretful, but he didn't know what to say. He could only watch the spirit of Queen of Stars dissipate.
"Farewell, little Rod."
The Star Queen's chuckle sounded like a gentle breeze in her ears.
"This world is cruel, but also beautiful. I love it very much, and I love people like you very much, but I will never come here again in my next life."
"This is a gift left for you. It contains the trajectory of the stars and can grow into the soul characteristics of the stars. I hope it can be useful to you."
In his soul, Rhodes felt a translucent object falling down at the foot of the obelisk.
"What is this... Queen, you..."
The Queen of Stars smiled and said: "Goodbye, kind Lord of Dreams, I hope we can meet again in the world of dreams and find each other's value."
As soon as she finished speaking, her spirit completely dissipated.
This former king of mankind has completely fallen asleep and will never wake up again.
All the past about the Kingdom of Stars also disappeared, leaving only cold words and half-destroyed relics.
The hope that humanity once had, and the struggles that humanity once had, all disappeared.
However, its legacy, its spirit, its history, were taken over by another human kingdom, Trorian.
The Kingdom of Stars is not extinct, its fire is inherited, its story is told, and its mission is taken over.
This is how human beings are passed down from generation to generation, and the fire continues and the inheritance never goes out.
Therefore, even in such a desperate environment, human beings are not extinct and survive in the cracks like weeds.
Rhodes watched the Queen of Stars leave, feeling that the responsibility on his shoulders was even heavier.
The purple starry sky disappeared, and the space in the tower returned to its original state.
He looked at the translucent condensation, and a piece of information was fed back to his soul.
"Soul Trait Block with Star Characteristics"
The Book of Knowledge screamed:
"Oh my god! Master, put it in the storage quickly. This is an extinct characteristic. Since the stars were seriously polluted and great artifacts like the original Ten Thousand Stars Instrument were discontinued, I originally thought that this kind of soul characteristic would never appear. .”
As soon as Rhodes thought, the storage room immediately took it in.
"Book, what's the use of this thing? Isn't the soul trait block used to improve the level of traits for people with such traits? The star traits have become extinct. Isn't it useless?"
The Book of Knowledge patted him: "Idiot, have you forgotten the other psychic sequences? The White Spirit Bearer and the Black Spirit Bearer! They can use this soul trait to gain the power of the stars."
Rhodes asked with some regret: "Can I use it?"
"no!"
The Book of Knowledge immediately rejected it.
"You are a unique dream system! It is closely related to the dream, and you must not get involved in other sequences!"
Rhodes muttered dissatisfiedly: "It sounds powerful, but I have consumed too many resources! I have eaten so many king-level monster souls, but I still haven't reached the king level!"
The Book of Knowledge turned its pages violently, clearly angry.
"What are you talking about? Don't you know that what you eat is the power of darkness? What you plunder is the power of the black mist. Didn't you realize that the souls you obtained from killing living humans are very weak? Unless It's contaminated! If you eat these things, anyone will die on the spot, go crazy, and turn into a monster!"
What the Book of Knowledge said was correct at all, Rhodes' voice couldn't help but become a little lower: "But am I growing too slowly?"
"Don't you know that the dream still needs to be restored? Don't you know that plundering is impossible to be 100%? Don't you know that your growth is too slow now, mainly because of the lack of star souls? The last step of the stars is the most critical !”
Rhodes scratched his head. The words of the Book of Knowledge were correct and solved the confusion in his heart. However, he did not want to admit his mistake, so he immediately changed the direction of the topic:
"Why are you shouting so loudly? Is this your attitude towards the master?"
The momentum of the Book of Knowledge suddenly weakened.
Haha, I never thought that one day I would use this trick... Rhodes waved his hand and said, "Okay, just be careful next time... Let's go back quickly."
The Book of Knowledge agreed dully.
Rhodes fell from the sky, and Annabel rushed over with Mavis in her arms.
"We won! We won!"
She was still immersed in such joy and couldn't extricate herself.
For her, this was something she had never experienced before, playing an important role in killing a powerful king-level monster.
"Hahaha, I won, did you see it? Sisters, I am not a waste, woo woo woo, I am not a waste, I can fight side by side with Rhodes, I will not hold him back, woo woo woo!"
Rhodes patted her front thigh in a friendly manner and comforted: "You are great, Annabeth. You can already fight side by side with your sisters. Your performance is not worse than theirs. Next time I will take Jesse Call them and let us fight together."
The centaur, who was twice as tall as him, wiped his tears and showed a tearful smile: "Okay!"
Rhodes turned his gaze, and Mavis looked at him expressionlessly, neither sad nor happy, and his silver-white eyes were as cold as ever.
"You did a great job, Mavis. Our tacit understanding is perfect..."
Mavis asked softly: "I feel another spirit in you, what is it?"
Rhodes smiled and said: "That's my ultimate trick, which can only be used at a huge cost. Well, let's not say so much now. The King of the Deep Sea has been killed by us. We have completed an unprecedented feat. Now, Return to the royal city to receive the award."
With a thought, he touched the [Spirit Boat], white light shone in front of his eyes, and the portal opened again.
Inside the door is the sacred fire sacrificial site.
This was not set up by Rhodes intentionally. The portal of [Spirit Boat] needs to be at a location he has been to and covered by fire.
The stronger the fire, the higher the probability of success.
I would like to ask, is there any place stronger than the fire at the Holy Fire Sacrifice?
Therefore, unless there are special needs, Rhodes will always open the [Spirit Boat] portal at the Holy Fire Sacrifice.
The portal could only last for 30 seconds, so the three of them quickly stepped in.
The moment he returned to the Holy Fire Sacrifice, Rhodes was stunned by the sight in front of him.
I saw that the usually solemn sacred fire sacrificial site was actually covered with a layer of white ash half a yard high.
If it weren't for the sacred fire still burning brightly, this place would be like an extinguished furnace.
Wang Zheng stood in the center, surrounded by fire protectors and fire sacrifices, completely surrounding the entire sacred fire sacrificial site.
Archbishop Horus was standing next to the king and kept saying something.
Until the three of them suddenly appeared, everyone's eyes immediately moved over.
"Welcome back our warriors."
Wang said with a smile.
"You are the one who has used the least amount of manpower and material resources to kill king-level monsters in our historical records. Congratulations, you will definitely leave your names in history..."
Horus suddenly shouted: "Wait, what are you talking about? King, what does that terrifying monster that suddenly appeared have to do with them?"
Wang shrugged helplessly, indicating that this was not what he wanted to say.
But Horus keenly grasped this flaw and shouted wildly: "You are the one who caused the trouble, right? I mean, how could such a powerful monster suddenly appear in the center of the royal city and directly enter the Holy Fire Sacrifice! You know that time What is my heart doing?"
Rhodes replied casually: "Bounce."
Horus said angrily: "It's a wild jump! All of us are almost scared to death!"
The king comforted him: "Don't get excited, Horus. Didn't I kill it with one blow? It won't have any impact..."
"No impact?"
Horus' spittle almost flew to the king's face.
"Where do they think the Holy Fire Sacrifice is? Monsters that cannot be defeated are sent here? Also, why do they challenge the King of the Deep Sea?"
A series of questions came like a barrage, and everyone listened silently. Even the king did not try to offend the angry archbishop.
He started from the safety of the royal city to the importance of the holy fire. He had to take out every detail and spray them four or five times.
It was not until the end that he asked with lingering anger:
"Can you force teleportation? Can such a powerful monster teleport back across such a long distance?"
Rhodes quickly explained: "This is because it was seriously injured. It is impossible for a complete monster to be teleported at a fixed point."
There was clearly regret in Horus's eyes, but he just said: "I know, be careful next time." Then he turned and left.
The fire keepers and fire priests also exited the hall.
"Well done, little Rod."
Wang said with a smile.
"Well, this is yours, right?"
He handed over a long sword.
Rhodes recognized it at a glance. Isn't this the Divine Sword of Destiny?
One of the legacies given to him by the Ancient God of Destiny.
"Yes." Rhodes happily took the sword and asked, "Where are the monster's ashes?"
