The Last King of Darkness

The reinforcement team consisted of sixteen people, including two instructors and one teacher.

The teacher is Old Blind Moll, and the two instructors are the instructor An Ye, who assessed Rhode's destructive power, and Bach, who used to perform a hunting mission with Rhode in the sewers.

Rhode was very impressed with his Moon Bow, just wondered he wasn't a member of the Knights? Why become an instructor?

Bach was a silent middle-aged man. Faced with Rhodes' question, he just answered briefly: "The instructors are all combatants."

Mina knew that Rhodes had amnesia and thought that he had not fully recovered, so she explained: "Most teachers and instructors have military positions and will participate in combat. They only come to class during the recovery period."

No wonder the academy's curriculum is so loose... Rhodes suddenly realized that there are still a few professional teachers who dare to love.

No wonder Wang Cheng was so anxious to train new soldiers to join the battlefield. Under such circumstances, the chief dean could still keep the four-year teaching plan unchanged, which was really remarkable.

The group quickly prepared and set off in the hearse.

This is the first time Rhodes has participated in a formal war mission.

The biggest difference from the mission in the royal city is that a new position has appeared in the reinforcement team: the lantern bearer.

This position is held by Mr. Moore himself, and his lamp is also different from the one that Rhode often hangs around his waist.

The lamp is large in size, with a grille made of gray metal on the outer layer and a thick translucent glass on the inner layer.

But the biggest difference is that the inside of the lamp is not a mass of light, but a tiny flame.

This reminded Rhodes of the destruction of the relocation team - among the many corpses, there was an old man holding such a lamp, its light illuminated at least hundreds of yards of space.

And most of the lights he came into contact with were only a few yards away.

Rhode asked this question to Mina who was sitting next to him.

Mina was surprised: "Rod, I really feel that your amnesia is very strange. It has lost a certain part of the content accurately, while the other part is intact. The knowledge you know makes me sometimes think that you are a scholar, But you are sometimes like an ignorant baby, like a traveler from an unknown world."

Congratulations for discovering the truth... Rhode replied casually: "You don't understand, people are creatures with infinite possibilities, no matter what strange things happen to them, it's understandable. Silence's disease, my memory will appear and disappear with the ebb and flow of the void."

"Why do I think this is made up by you..."

"impossible."

Rhodes flatly denied it.

"I never lie."

Mina looked at him suspiciously, but still explained: "This is the fire of protection, and the lantern that holds it is a Horcrux. A team of more than fifteen people can perform tasks outside the royal city and within the defensive circle. Apply for it to travel with the team and provide us with light and shelter. Of course, under normal circumstances, Wangcheng will not easily give the fire of protection, we belong to a very high configuration. "

As soon as the words fell, Rhodes instantly understood.

The broken knowledge in the memory is strung together.

The fire of guardianship is the fire that shelters human beings. It can dispel the dark fog, repell all derivatives born from darkness, and is also the source of all light power.

According to the current mainstream theory of light in Wangcheng, it is believed that fire is light, and the opposite of light, darkness, is the black fog that covers the world.

Therefore, fire can disperse the black fog, and the black fog can also put out the fire, and the original law of the world is the law of light and darkness. All existence and all power in the world are rooted in either light or darkness. The representative of light is Existing humans, and the representatives of darkness are the black mist and the monsters derived from it.

Generally, the "afterglow" and "afterfire" in the lantern are all derived from the power of the guardian fire, so they also have the power of light, but they are much weaker than the guardian fire.

And when humans leave the royal city, they leave the protection of the holy fire. In order to avoid being eroded by the black mist, they need to bring the guardian fire, or its derivatives.

Not only that, but even restoring psionic energy must be carried out within the area affected by the fire.

If you use meditation and other means to restore psionic energy in an area without fire, the soul will be eroded by darkness.

Therefore, actions outside the royal city are very dangerous.

The monsters in the royal city are suppressed by the holy fire and are very weak. Outside the royal city, the reverse is true. The power of the fire holders is suppressed, but the monsters are extremely powerful. If there is no guardian fire, they can only rely on potions to restore their spiritual energy.

No wonder Mina said it was a high configuration.

Rhodes thought.

It looks like I'm going to focus on hunting monsters.

The hearse stopped by the city gate of the outer city. It could only be used in the royal city and could not go out of the city.

Beneath the huge city wall is the city defense army guarding troops. Their main enemies are not monsters, but doomsday believers who want to sneak in or out of the royal city.

The guards checked all of the reinforcements' paperwork and released them.

In the long corridor, there is only one team of them alone, and the thick blue city wall has a strong sense of oppression.

Karamon couldn't help but asked: "Why is there no one? I remember that there are usually a lot of people at the city gate."

Iger scolded: "How stupid, have you forgotten what Dean Vera said? The Kuroshio is here."

Karamon couldn't help being a little nervous: "Then we are not very dangerous?"

Instructor An Ye said: "It's not very dangerous, Jianguan is in the seventh defense zone, in the middle of Dead Mountain Canyon, is the end of the defense circle, the front is Liguang Fortress, and the side is the giant fortress, far from the most dangerous area, we The missions are just normal defense maneuvers."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Beauwood was a little disappointed: "Without challenges, you won't get stronger."

Old Blind Moer smiled and said, "Young man, everything is lacking outside Wangcheng, except for challenges. You don't have to worry about it."

Beallwood bowed slightly and said respectfully, "I see, Mr. Moore."

When the city gate guard pushed open a huge steel city gate that was at least one person thick for them, Rhode finally stepped out of the royal city after two months.

An abnormal feeling came to my face, desolate, desolate, terrifying, without light, the black mist was rolling, and there seemed to be countless monsters lurking in the thick darkness. Dark abyss.

Until Moore walked out of the city gate and raised the lamp, the gentle light illuminated an area of ​​at least a hundred yards, and the rolling black mist was blocked from the light, as if separated by an invisible barrier.

A dark shadow in the ground let out a miserable cry, and a raging flame ignited on his body, which instantly turned into a pool of ashes.

A little fat man screamed in fright, and Mole scolded: "Duoduo, shut up!"

The little fat man called Duoduo closed his mouth, but his body was still shaking.

Rhodes glanced at him and thought: "How can there be such a timid person in the secret branch?"

With the lamp in hand, Maul walked forward with the team for a moment, until the city gate and the high wall were completely lost.

The firelight lit up this small area alone, as if the world was only left with this small illuminated world, and everyone felt a sense of panic inexplicably, as if the children who had left their warm homes were about to face infinite horror. outside world.

Moore cracked his mouth, revealing jagged yellow teeth:

"Little guys, this is the real outside world. In most cases, you don't have such a good line of sight. Your light can only illuminate a few yards around you. The black fog is within your reach, and monsters may rush in at any time. Come around you, tear your bodies apart with your claws, eat your flesh with your teeth, and the black mist will devour your souls and turn your broken bodies into one of them."

Many students turned pale, and even some veterans tightened their clothes.

They know that the old blind eye is not intimidating, he is talking about what has happened and is still happening.

Rhode suddenly smelled a smell of urine, and when he looked down, it turned out that the little fat man was scared to pee.

What the **** is this guy? You are so timid, why are you here? It can be refused.

Rhode took a step forward quietly and pushed the little fat man to the back, blocking his sight.

Many thanks +21

Humanity +2

good. Rhodes glanced at his humanity, and there are 312, which is not too much. If it is eroded, it may only be able to withstand dozens of seconds.

To brush a little more, human nature is not only material, but also anti-corrosion, which is very important.

While thinking about it, More said:

"Therefore, in the battle outside the king's city, you must be careful. No matter how inconspicuous the threat is, it may ruin your life. Be vigilant!"

He shouted, startling everyone.

Immediately, instructor Dark Leaf began to assign responsibilities.

Unexpectedly, neither the instructor nor the teacher served as the captain.

The captain is the bear-like strong man Beowood, and the vice-captain is also the bear-like strong man Raistlin.

Two bear-like men stood at the forefront, giving people a sense of security inexplicably.

"All actions must follow the captain's instructions, and no private action is allowed. This is the basic principle."

Instructor Dark Leaf said solemnly.

"And you, UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com, are the people who shoulder the fate of the entire team. You decide to be calm, careful, cautious, and decisive and quick. Indecision is the fatal wound of the leader, and rough and arbitrary is the destruction of the team. the most important factor."

Beorwood and Raistlin nodded together.

"During the mission, you can ask, discuss, and plan, but once an order is given, you must not hesitate. The team members can question, but they are not allowed to refuse to act, and they are not allowed to cause damage or delay. Do you understand?"

The students answered in unison: "Understood."

"Very well, I will now explain our action guidelines. We are here to reinforce Jianguan and repair the psionic generator. Therefore, Researcher Mina is our core defense target. If she loses the ability to move, the task will be half failed."

All eyes were on Mina.

Mina looked calm and did not respond.

Instructor Dark Leaf continued:

"The lantern bearer, the core of the team, when the light goes out, we are not far from death, and it is our key defense target,"

"The scout, the team's eyes, blind eyes, we will be very passive, so Annabelle, Rhodes, is our focus to defend the target."

"Let me mention here, Annabei's personal ability is very strong, she is a secondary scout, don't pay attention, Rhodes is a complete visionary, a main scout, he has no ability to defend himself, and is a valuable item that can be broken when touched. , For this kind of teammate, we have to be very careful to protect, take care of and love him carefully, understand?"

In the neat sound of "understanding", in the countless glances, in the various eyes of Raistlin, Karamon, Mina and others.

Rhode's face was about to burn.

Am I this crispy?

What's the matter, I'll let you know my hardness in a while!
