The Last King of Darkness

The second half of the patrol was a little dull, but still encountered some sporadic monsters, all of them in shadow state, strange shapes, very weak, and easily eliminated.

According to Raistlin, these are all gray-level monsters, the lowest-level dark creatures born from the black fog, the flying ash on the battlefield, the dust that can be swept away at will, and never considered in the battle situation.

Even ordinary people, as long as they are brave enough to use weapons, can destroy it.

In areas far from the flame, they are often encountered during night patrols. Generally speaking, they are not a threat. They are afraid of firelight. As long as the spiritual lamp does not go out, they generally do not invade residential houses.

But if they are not dealt with for a long time, they will mutate in the black mist, or devour each other, or build a nest, and gradually grow into a deadly threat, the black mist will gather here, and more monsters will appear here. Lurk in the dark and launch terror on all living, warm, brightly lit beings.

At that time, the investigation corps will unite with the corresponding corps or battle groups to form a hunting team to clean up.

"Of course, this is impossible in the royal city."

"Except for the sewers," Karamon added.

"Why?" Rhodes asked curiously.

"Because the sewers are too big, it is very tiring to clean them all the time. We only clean the surface layer to ensure that no monsters come up. Unless there are special circumstances, no one will enter the middle and deep layers of the sewers."

"Why do you need to repair it so big?"

"I don't know either. It is said that Trorian King City used to be the city of giants. Maybe the feces of giants are very big, right?"

The topic ends here.

After that, they dealt with another special event. A three-headed dog that had already formed bit the lantern and invaded the residential house. The residents woke up and rang the bell. Rhode saw strange ripples in the air more than 1,000 meters away. , After telling Raistlin, the four turned their heads and ran away, finally killing the monster at the last minute and saving a family of four.

The man in the room was seriously injured, and his intestines were bitten out. Rhode thought he was helpless, but Caramon just shoved it in his hand, and light blue water waves appeared on his hand. Healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, although the man's face was still pale, his breathing gradually calmed down.

The woman hugged Karamon's leg and cried, thanking them constantly, saying that there was no money at home, and the bell was the cheapest to buy. It was too quiet for the watchman to detect, but the husband said he was lucky, as long as If the spirit lamp is not extinguished, there will be no monsters attacking them. I didn't expect bad luck to come.

The two daughters of their family also cried with their mothers in their arms, saying that they were already desperate, but they did not expect to be saved. The four uncles are their heroes.

Karamon was a little embarrassed and explained: "Thank you to this uncle. He saw the ripples of the bell, otherwise we would not know."

Raistlin said solemnly: "You guys are really lucky this time, it's not that Uncle Rhodes has extraordinary vision, you are already dead, and the bell is a must-have for every family, no matter how poor, this You can't save any money."

The two daughters wiped away each other's tears, and turned to Rhodes with their pretty faces raining like pear blossoms, and said crisply, "Thank you, Brother Rhodes."

Until he returned to the Defense Department of the Iron Cross District, Karamon was still feeling sour:

"Why am I the big uncle, and he is the big brother?"

Both Raistlin and Iger couldn't help laughing, and Iger tapped Karamon's knee:

"Look at Brother Rhode's white and tender face, isn't he much more handsome and younger than you? If you were like him, how could Donna run away?"

Karamon was furious: "Shut up, you little dwarf!"

"You're blind? I'm a size seven! Not much shorter than you!"

Before the end of the patrol mission, they met the real watchman in this area, a guy with a half-piece iron mask, with a grim expression, and said nothing.

According to Raistlin, the official watchmen are all combatants above level six, far stronger than them. They are the real backing of an area and are used to deal with all kinds of dangerous situations that patrollers can't handle. The whistle and the flare were used to call him.

However, this guy didn't mean to communicate with them, he brushed past them indifferently, and handed over the task to the Secretary of Defense.

It seems that tonight's task went very smoothly. The defense chief of the Iron Cross District laughed until his legs were closed.

"Not bad, good boys, I knew you were the best, Reed, and you were good too, and you, Casey, of course, the best of course was our Lulu, oh... As for Rhodes , I can only say that it is worthy of being a special student, and handed over a perfect answer sheet, the Tracy family will remember you for a lifetime, I will write my evaluation in detail, and your teachers will be proud of you."

Rhode felt a little embarrassed. Except for the last incident, he had almost no effect. The monsters he encountered were too weak, and he didn't need to warn him at all. Even the last patrol report was written by Raistlin. The one on the thigh was regarded as the captain by the defense chief.

However, the three of Raistlin didn't mind.

On the way back to Kingworth College in the double-decker hearse, they all expressed that they were very satisfied with Rhode's partner. His super vision made up for the lack of stone and wood cores of all their members, and the jokes he told were very vivid and interesting. Let the chickens move, they are looking forward to tomorrow's task.

This made Rhodes finally relieved, it seems that these three thighs have been successfully hugged.

Sure enough, meat jokes are the fastest way for men to make friends.

Back at the dormitory, Rhode finally had time to sort out the harvest of this trip.

Overall, the patrol mission this time was very successful. His goal was initially achieved, and he obtained more than 90 dusty souls in total.

However, even if all of them are added, "Bright Blue" is still in a "weakly burning" state, and the intensity has only increased from two to three.

You know, when Rhode first ignited it, its strength was thirteen.

Perhaps because these monsters were too weak, the souls they obtained were also very weak.

The word dust is a good illustration of this.

I want to quickly get more and stronger souls, preferably to reach the "constant burning" state of "Dark Devourer".

Rhodes thought.

That way, you don't have to hunt down monsters all the time.

You know, if you often walk by the river, how can you not get your feet wet, go hunting for monsters every day, and one day you will be hunted by monsters.

Gou and stability are his creeds.

Only by surviving is everything possible.

Of course, hunting monsters is his only choice now. Without a soul, he is like a capital without money, a bonfire without firewood, an existence that will eventually perish.

but…

Rhode looked at the bullets in the spirit gun with a little sadness. There were only five of fifty real silver bullets left.

He still owes the merchants three hundred and fifty silver cables.

Moreover, Kashan still had two hundred silver coins in her hand, but she didn't say that she didn't need to pay it back.

Without saving a penny, the foreign debt has reached 550.

Money is now an issue too.

Just think of a way to borrow some first.

As long as you can get the Jinworth Star, you will have 10,000 silver lines, and repaying the money is not a problem at all.

With certain thoughts, Rhodes lay on the bed and was about to take a good rest, but he felt that he was shaken awake as soon as he closed his eyes.

"Class time! Slacker!"

Rhode opened his eyes reluctantly, and saw Kashan's bright light blue eyes and golden hair swaying around her pretty cheeks.

This girl is more and more unavoidable now, and every time she directly opens his door, no matter what he is doing.

Perhaps because of the consumption of too much psychic energy last night, Rhodes had a splitting headache and was really sleepy. He said:

"How about you go? I want to sleep a little longer."

Kashan's eyebrows stood up immediately, she dragged Rhode out of bed, put on his shoes, and pulled him out of the room.

The ten groups of students were already waiting outside, and almost all of them looked at the sleepy Rhodes with admiration. No one would dare to say this in front of Kashan. No one has the treatment except Rhodes, and Kashan will only use her iron fist to wake people up.

—She is the only person in the group who has learned to use the power of fire. Her two fires are "steel power" and "iron hardening", both of which are very powerful physical abilities. opponent.

This not only made her the symbol of the ten groups and the idol of the trainees, but also made her a nightmare for male trainees like Wayne and green hair.

Along the way, Kashan kept emphasizing the importance of this class, saying that it was a course specially adjusted by the college for them, and it was very useful for the next patrol duty, and at the same time warned them that the selection of the department group had already begun, and everyone had to fight. With the spirit of 100,000, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com strives to make the ten groups select the excellent department group.

This is not just honor, there are many reward materials, especially the essential oil of dragon hand grass and colorful spore powder, which have a very important effect on awakening their psychic power and developing their abilities.

This last point is of great concern to all.

No one wants to awaken psionics and use the power of their own soul fire.

In the ten groups, nearly half of the people have not been able to awaken their psionic energy, and only Kashan is the only one who can use their own fire ability.

This result is really not excellent. In the ten groups of the ten departments, the ranking is the bottom, and it is even less visible in the entire three courtyards.

Therefore, Kashan has become impatient recently, and no one dares to disobey her.

Except for Rhodes, of course.

He is the best person in the ten groups except for Kashan, and he is very expected to be selected as the "Golden Worth Star", which also has a lot of bonus points for the ten groups.

Therefore, Kashan is also extra tolerant to him.

But Wayne and Green Hair don't envy him at all anymore. Being married to such a wife and going home, I'm afraid it won't have a good life in the future.

In the class, Rhode still forcibly cheered up, no matter what, he must get the "Goldenworth Star" medal, personal points, classroom points, teacher points, and the new patrol points, none of which can be obtained. few.

It is his goal to be the first in the whole grade, and free access to the academy is not only the basis of his series of actions, but also the hope of his survival.

This class is "Common Monster Habits and Characteristics", which is a big class.

The teacher is a neurotic old man with gray hair and wrinkled face. He is blind in one eye and has a prosthetic right foot.

"alert!"

He yelled as soon as he entered the classroom door, startling everyone.
