The Last King of Darkness

Fighting is a very serious matter in the academy, from deduction of credits, to confinement, to expulsion, all of which are taken away by internal affairs rulings.

But Kashan's face was very useful for the teacher. After her explanation, the teacher only took the three of Hablin away, but did not deal with Rhodes.

This gave him a long sigh of relief.

The selection date is approaching, and there must be no moths at this time.

Rhode just wanted to thank Kashan, but she threw her hair away.

What happened to this girl? Rhodes felt strange, but he didn't have time to think about his affairs.

For the next few days, the days returned to quiet.

Rhodes is studying hard every day, constantly brushing human nature, and practicing the skills of using psionic energy.

I have to say, Rhodes always felt that he had a strange talent, an innate instinct for the use of psionic energy, and he learned everything at once.

Even Kashan, who has always been excellent, is not as fast as him. She just relies on the power given to her by the fire, and has a huge strange power and a fist as hard as steel.

However, when Rhodes went to receive customized training for special trainees again, Mina, who taught him advanced **** skills, told him that with his current strength, these skills should not be used in actual combat.

Because his psionic power is too weak, these skills cannot effectively resist the attack of monsters or cause damage to monsters, and the damage of **** far exceeds the power of fists.

To illustrate this point more vividly, Mina took out a box of pebbles.

"This is fluorite. As long as you input psychic energy, it will emit light, and the psychic energy of one will be lit up for a moment."

"There are a thousand in this box. Lighting it up is one of the trials to become a full-fledged fighter."

Rhodes stretched out his hand and tried to light up all the fluorites through the method last time, but he failed.

Every fluorite was absorbing his spiritual energy all the time, no matter how much effort he expended, it could only light up one corner of it.

"This is your current maximum psionic strength, 171 ticks."

Mina took out a large drawing sheet and lifted the glasses on the bridge of her nose.

"According to the mechanics formula I created, the damage equivalent of your full-strength punch is 4 at most. If you hit a mid-to-beginner-level monster, it won't shed a single hair, it can only clean up the dust."

"And a real silver bullet of the spirit gun, the damage equivalent of a light hit is 70, and the heavy hit is 160, which is 40 times that of your fist."

Rhodes stretched his head to take a look, full of dazzling formulas and various tall charts.

Mina pushed her glasses: "Don't read it, you can't understand it, this is all super-classified content, not taught in the academy, only the top scholars will be exposed to this knowledge."

Rhodes frowned. He really didn't understand many things, but he still understood when it came to mechanics.

"Are you wrong? The Lagrange dynamic equations are all wrong. Your 'caress' symbol should be above the equation, not in front. According to your equation description, my fist is a big pendulum, but It's actually a straight line."

"And your second-order variable coefficient linear differential equation is also wrong. According to your previous numbers, the deduced value should be 71, not 55."

Rhode picked up the charcoal and made a frantic change.

"...So, the damage equivalent of my full punch should be 5. The heavy blow of the spirit gun is only 32 times that of mine, not 40 times."

Rhodes dropped the charcoal pen, raised his head, and saw that Mina's whole body seemed to be fixed by the immobilization technique.

Rhodes touched it and was immediately bounced off by her slap.

Che, it turned out to be fake, I thought it could make up for the regret of watching monkeys back then.

Mina's pretty face was slightly red, and her big eyes seemed to have ripples of water and flames. She looked at Rhodes up and down, as if she had discovered a new continent.

"How can you know such advanced knowledge? Which university scholar are you a student of?"

Rhodes blinked.

Is this also profound? Isn't this what elementary school students can do? Wangcheng is so advanced, it seems that it should be in the era of electricity, at least it is also the era of mutated psionic electricity, how can it not even understand the mechanics?

"...I said I was self-taught, do you believe it?"

"Impossible." Mina categorically denied: "Only the smartest brain can understand such knowledge. If you can't explain it, I can only understand it as a gift from the evil god."

Rhode was startled, and immediately said: "Of course not. When I was a child, an old man passed by my door and said that my skeleton is very strange. This Tathagata... Mechanics classic, I will give it to you. results."

Mina looked at him suspiciously: "Where's the book?"

Rhodes pointed to his head.

Mina wondered: "Which scholar is it? Why do I always feel like you made it up on the spot? Well...not necessarily, most scholars are weird and hard to understand. They can do such weird things. of."

Rhode nodded deeply: "You are right."

After that, the two discussed it in depth.

Rhodes found that her knowledge was messy and unsystematic. She clearly understood waves, but she didn't even know the law of inertia. Rhodes said for a long time that the physical movement on the smooth mirror surface would not stop. She insisted on talking about her. The jade feet are also smooth, but still stop on the ground.

Rhodes said that her feet were not smooth enough, and Mina got angry and insisted on taking off her shoes for him to touch.

Rhode couldn't resist her, and he touched it. It was icy, soft, and slippery. He rubbed the essential oil of dragon hand grass, and there was a slight aroma.

He raised his head, met Mina's murderous gaze, and had to admit that he was wrong. Her jade feet were very smooth, very beautiful, and very addictive.

Mina's Joy +9

Humanity +1

Okay, when human nature speaks, the truth has to be silent too.

However, Rhodes found that Wangcheng's mathematics is very developed, and the specific performance is that Mina already understands topology and functional analysis.

This proves that their mathematics has developed at least to modern times, and it is no wonder that there are numerical quantifications for various indicators.

And Rhodes' mathematical background shocked Mina even more.

She is already a mathematical genius known as the once-in-a-hundred-year-old in Wangcheng. Her teacher, His Excellency Amides, a scholar at Wangcheng University, has praised her highly and has trained her as a closed-door disciple. Among the younger generation, her mathematical ability is unparalleled. However, even the Grand Observatory sometimes asks her to solve problems.

And this young man who is nine years younger than her can actually keep up with her!

Mina's heart was pounding.

Wang Cheng's desire for mathematicians is very great, but most people can focus on psionic energy and specific combat power, and disdain for real knowledge, and the high threshold of mathematics is also prohibitive.

Therefore, a scholar with extremely high attainments in mathematics is actually quite lonely.

If this handsome and cute little guy can be introduced into the teacher's door and become her junior brother, then won't she have a companion? They can communicate in depth, day and night, everything they are interested in.

However, Rhodes' talent is also quite high, and he may not be willing to switch to knowledge.

Mina hesitated.

However, when they discussed the complex calculations of fluid mechanics, Rhodes came up with an interesting idea. Starting from the basis of energy conservation, he studied the flow of water in water supply pipes, and obtained the flow velocity, pressure, and between pipes under fluid motion. The relationship can greatly reduce the computational complexity under certain conditions.

Mina's heart slammed, she made up her mind, no matter what method she used, she would get him into the teacher's door and become her little brother.

"Rod."

Mina suddenly stood up, her high chest obscuring Rhodes' all sight.

"Your psionic promotion ceremony is ready, let's do it now."

"Ah? Didn't you say there was a shortage of materials? How many days do you have to wait?"

Mina said seriously: "Your psionic strength has greatly exceeded the psionic level, and it will be harmful to your soul in the long run, just like we don't encourage teenagers to wear tight pants."

You might as well not say it, it feels like my soul has changed color... Rhode got up and went to the ceremony hall. According to Mina, he took off his robe and lay in a large shape in a place similar to an operating table.

But when Mina asked him to strip, he kept an eye on it and asked back if it was true? What's the use of being naked?

Seeing her eyes flashing and her face turning red, she knew it was a lie.

Although Rhodes is not a shy and pure boy, it is somewhat uncomfortable to be watched from one side. The two of them look at each other as equals.

Mina didn't force it either. She pushed a trolley over, lit the incense, and smeared all kinds of essential oils on him. Her slender hands were not particularly secure, and her soft finger belly gently pressed his. The slender fingernails on his stomach and chest scratched his skin, making Rhode very suspicious of whether this was necessary for the psionic power upgrade ceremony, or whether she was simply taking advantage.

Fortunately, Mina did not engage in too long.

She quickly pushed the two giant transformer-like instruments over, placed two crystal clusters that looked like liquid cyan light on his forehead, and then stuffed a red crystal-like object into his mouth.

"Okay, the intensity is a bit high, please bear with it."

Mina stood away, her expression became serious, powerful psionic energy gathered in her hands, visible ripples appeared in the air, and two giant transformers hummed.

She raised her hands and shouted:

"lightning!"

In an instant, a huge white light penetrated Rhode's body, quack, Rhode shattered the red crystal, his eyes went black, and he passed out.

When he opened his eyes, he had come to the dream world and was standing in front of the obelisk.

The dream became strange, the gray fog became fast, the sky was thunder and lightning, the branches of the lightning were bent wantonly, and the cold light before the storm enveloped the world.

A huge lightning struck, and he lost consciousness again.

When Rhode woke up again, he saw Mina standing in front of him smiling.

"Congratulations, the ceremony was very successful. You have taken the first step of becoming an extraordinary fire keeper. You have officially stepped into the hall of spiritual energy, and you are no longer someone who is blocked from the threshold."

Rhode looked at him suspiciously: "Have I never gotten started?"

Mina smiled and said: "Of course not, the first-level psionic power is like a giant crab without a shell, a caterpillar without a cocoon, it is an incomplete form, a transitional form from a mortal to an extraordinary. Moving from level 1 to level 2 is like changing from shrimps to crabs, from bugs to butterflies, and then you will grow up again, but there will not be such a change of cocooning into a butterfly again until you step into Africa. the threshold of man."

Rhode was delighted in his heart, raised his hand, and with a thought, psychic energy quickly poured out from the depths of his soul like a flood of open gates.

A particularly clear and direct feeling was reflected in the spirit, which was in sharp contrast to the foggy feeling before, as if the gauze that had been separated by a hundred layers had been removed.

There was nothing to hide, and he and his psionic power were naked, with a wonderful sense of freedom.

Mina waited for a moment with understanding, until Rhodes became familiar with the new soul structure, and then said with a smile, "Let's go, I'll give you a whole body test."

She took Rhode by the hand, went to another room, and conducted a comprehensive test on him again.

On the personal report of the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Rhodes' detailed data was also fully updated.

Psionic Level: 2

Maximum Psionic Strength: 366 ticks

Maximum Psionic Output: 50 ticks

Average Reiatsu: 15

Estimated total amount of psionic energy: 22-81 thousand ticks

This time, the data showed an explosive increase compared to the last time, and Rhode was overjoyed. The more he grew, the higher the probability of getting the "Goldenworth Star" medal.

After saying goodbye to the reluctant Mina, Rhode quickly returned to the three dormitories, closed the door, and hung a pogo pin on the door lock. As long as someone pushed the door, the pogo pin would shoot out and hit him.

Rhodes has tried it once and can definitely wake up from a dream.

He quickly jumped onto the bed, squeezed the lightning gesture, and his soul rose up into the dream.

The dream has long since recovered, the sky and earth are foggy and chaotic in the distance, a silent mist flows in the air, and the gray-white ground stretches silently underfoot until the invisible end.

But with an extra hut, the feeling of the dream is completely different, just like the dream has a fulcrum and is no longer empty.

Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that it was only a brief vision during the upgrade.

The dream hasn't changed.

Rhodes pressed his hand on the obelisk, and in the next instant, he saw the change.

At the top of the obelisk, there are several more lines of text.

Soul Host: Rhodes

Soul Strength: 39

Soul Stars: 2

Humanity: 992

Divinity: 55

Soulless Soul: 241

—

Is this my data?

Rhode was overjoyed.

Looks so strong.

It just so happens that it can be mutually confirmed with the report of the Institute of Mechanical Engineering.

After researching for a while, Rhodes found that the strength of the soul is the sum of the strengths of the two stars.

That is to say, the soul stars are actually part of my soul?

Or is there some kind of connection between them?

Rhodes asked a similar question to the Book of Knowledge, but it didn't have the knowledge.

During this time, Rhodes had a lot of dealings with the Book of Knowledge, and he had a certain understanding of it. It could answer most questions about knowledge or knowledge derived from it, but all knowledge except dreams had to pay a price.

The price is usually some kind of material, put into its written mouth and even paid.

The size of the price is related to the rarity of knowledge. The more people who know it, the lower the price.

If Rhodes asks a question from a textbook, the most common price is redstone.

Redstone is a special product of Redstone Village. It is mainly used to make urns, which are used to store the ashes of monsters without being polluted, and are also used to hold the ashes of people.

However, most people's ashes are put into the fire, which is a custom in the royal city.

They believe that the best destination for the dead is to return to the arms of fire, and their spirits will rest in the warm world of fire.

Only the most wicked people are not allowed to be cremated, and because of this, the residents of Wangcheng are very afraid of capital punishment, and they are worried that they will not be able to find peace after death.

The price of redstone is not high. In order to facilitate asking questions, Rhodes bought a lot of redstone to store in the dream.

This does work.

The book of knowledge is simply the best teacher, and its answers are comprehensive, standard, and easy to understand.

With its help, Rhodes figured out a lot of problems that he didn't understand in the classroom. The homework left by the teacher was excellent every time. His total credits have reached 122, which is considered to be the best in the entire ten departments.

It would be great if it could be used in the exam room, Rhode thought.

But this is somewhat risky, and it is best not to use it if it is not necessary.

Subsequently,

Rhodes added phlogiston to the candle and lit the stone table.

Put a solid piece of ashes on the stone platform, which is the ashes he bought.

Fifty more copies of humanity were taken out, and the black sediment on the obelisk's humanity surface was instantly reduced to half.

It was almost full before and it seemed to have a limit of only 1000.

Fifty parts of humanity are like a wriggling shadow, not enough to fill a hand.

Putting humanity on the stone platform, the item "Guardian of the Darkness" on the stone panel lights up.

Rhode lightly tapped, and suddenly, all the tools on the stone platform flew out, the closets of various sizes kept switching, and various sticks and hammersaws smashed wildly against the materials on the stone platform.

Rhodes was taken aback. Although he knew that Shitai would do it on his own, he did not expect such a scene.

He saw all kinds of tools rudely breaking down the materials, and he couldn't help worrying about whether the production would fail.

Fortunately, the production was quickly over, the tools returned to their place, and the chest of drawers was neatly closed.

On the stone platform, UU is reading www.uukanshu. A dimly gleaming eye was watching him silently.

It seems to be made of jade, smooth as a mirror but lifelike.

On the stone panel, the description under "Guardian of the Darkness" changed to: "Can only make two copies".

It worked!

Rhode picked it up with joy and looked at it over and over.

"Guardian of the Darkness" can reduce the damage to the obelisk, and it is definitely a life-saving trump card.

Rhodes stored it in the chest of drawers at the bottom of the stone platform, which was a place for keeping items, and there was one copy of his multi-spirits in it.

Today's dream task is completed.

In the following days, Rhodes entered the final sprint stage, concentrating on preparing for the monthly exam and the "Golden Worth Star", and even brushed off his humanity.

As the exam date approached, all the students became nervous, the air was full of anxiety, and the figures on the road became in a hurry. The common room was full of students studying for self-study. Both Stephens and Wayne began to study hard all night.

Soon came the exam that in some way decided the fate of the trainee.
