Chapter 270 The Last Chance

Latest website: A silver-white psychic floating car landed in front of the gate of Fanxing Town Administration Hall.

Surrounded by dozens of guards wearing silver robes with silver rings on their chests, Mavis finally returned to Star Town.

The guard captain found Rhodes and warned: "There is a problem with Mavis' soul curse. We cannot encapsulate her other two characteristics. We can only limit her abilities with a seal that suppresses psychic energy."

"Please be careful not to overuse her. The suppression mark is very sensitive. Once activated, it will directly destroy her soul."

Rhodes frowned and said, "How can you use such a dangerous thing? Isn't there a safer way?"

The captain of the guard said calmly: "You don't understand what is most dangerous at all. You only have your achievements and honor in your eyes. If Mavis loses control, it will cause more damage to Trolian than if you built a hundred Star Towns." All big.”

Rhodes raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Who are you, dare to say such things here? What does it mean to lose control? If Mavis was really the Son of Destruction, the king would have killed her long ago, why? Stay until now? Do you think your wisdom surpasses the king?"

An angry look flashed across the guard captain's face, but he couldn't refute Rhode's words.

The king is a god-like existence in everyone's heart. Although the king has become eccentric and incomprehensible in recent years, his noble image is still inviolable. No one dares to say that his wisdom is higher than the king.

In this matter, the king's actions were incomprehensible to all those who took the Silver Oath.

He snorted coldly and turned to leave, but was caught by Rhodes.

"You can remove this suppression mark or replace it with something safer, otherwise you can't leave."

The captain of the guard looked at him coldly and replied in a polite but stiff voice.

"I'm sorry, your highest position is just that of the King's Hand. You are also the defender of Fanxing Town and the third-level commander. You have no authority to order the Silver Oath Forbidden Arms, which are directly under the Supreme Council."

Rhodes sneered: "Molly."

"exist."

"Show him what authority means."

The tall, slender and cold-looking female assistant immediately took out Rhode's alternate elder robe.

He walked forward and carefully put on his robe and tied his belt.

Then he took out the appointment contract of the alternate elder and unfolded it in front of the guard captain.

She looked at him sternly and said in a condescending and indifferent tone: "Please pay attention to your wording. Lord Rhodes is now an alternate elder of the Supreme Council of Elders. According to the rules of the royal city, he has the right to order you to make decisions in office. affairs within the scope.”

The air froze at this moment.

Wearing the golden and red elder's robe, Rhodes looked like a superior, and he no longer had the childishness of youth.

The female assistant on the side is even more oppressive.

The guard captain's face turned green and red. He never expected that this man would be promoted again in such a short period of time.

After becoming an alternate elder, half of his feet had already stepped into the highest level of the royal city.

With his status, he is indeed qualified to issue orders to him.

But just such a compromise made the guard captain extremely unwilling.

He wanted to turn around and leave, but he was afraid of causing trouble to the forbidden armed forces.

In the final analysis, the Silver Oath is the truly unshakable main body of the royal city, and the Taboo Armed Forces are just an organization under the Silver Oath. Because the leader is too tough and doesn't know how to be roundabout, they have offended many people, and life is not easy now.

After the guard captain was silent for a long time, he still chose to compromise.

"This is a restraint ring. It can resist the fatal effect of suppressing the imprint, but the soul will still be severely shaken, leading to fainting or coma."

He put a silver bracelet on Mavis.

Rhodes was dissatisfied: "Can't you cancel the engraving?"

The guard captain said angrily: "This is my biggest concession. It is absolutely impossible to cancel the suppression seal!"

After saying that, he boarded the float without looking back and left quickly with the guards.

"Alright."

Rhodes actually knew that it was impossible to solve them all.

As long as the possibility of Mephis's sudden sudden death is avoided, he is the main one who kills the enemy anyway.

"This thing is so uncomfortable to wear."

Rhodes untied the elder's robe, gave it back to Molly, and changed back to his previous appearance.

There was a slight disappointment in Molly's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

She put away her robe and contract and returned to the hall.

Only then did Rhodes have time to look at Mavis.

This girl is completely different from when I first met her.

She was dressed in the gray robe of a taboo, with long black hair, gray-brown eyes, and an average appearance with only a bit of girlish delicacy. There were some freckles near the bridge of her nose. She was not tall, which made her look like she had not grown up. The same as the children.

But, she is still Mavis.

The one who was his best partner.

Rhodes smiled and walked up and stretched out his hand.

"Long time no see, Mavis. I've been missing you since you left. I'm glad you can come back."

"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"

Mavis looked at him, as if searching for a change in his expression.

"You..." she said hesitantly, "you don't seem disappointed at all."

Rhodes was surprised: "You came back to me, it's too late for me to be happy, how can I be disappointed?"

Mavis said softly: "But I no longer have such beautiful appearance. It is part of the curse."

Rhodes smiled and said: "Mephis, I am not the kind of superficial man who only cares about appearance. As long as it is a woman, I can't help it... Well, I mean, I am a person who pays great attention to the quality of the heart. , appearance is not important at all.”

Mavis hugged him gently.

"Thank you."

Rhodes smiled: "You're welcome, we are good partners... By the way, what's the matter with your curse? Why did it take so long for them to let you go?"

Mavis said: "I don't know why, but my curse lost the effect of encapsulating my characteristics. The Taboo Armed Forces tried many methods without success, and were finally forced to use suppression engraving to release me."

Rhodes was shocked: "Is your curse invalid?"

Mavis shook his head slightly.

"My curses are essentially part of my soul. They originate from my three soul characteristics, ice, mind control, and dark soul. The soul master in the royal city has manipulated these curses so that they can in turn encapsulate my characteristics. , but since that day, they have lost the ability to encapsulate and become..."

She paused, seemingly choosing her words.

"It becomes...controllable, like an extension of the trait."

Rhodes felt certain in his heart and said happily: "Isn't that better?"

"Yes, I can now freely control the curse to take effect, expand the range, strengthen the effect, and I can also turn it off at any time. The situation like the last time the curse went out of control will never happen again."

This was simply the best news he had heard today,

Rhodes laughed so hard that he couldn't even open his eyes: "Okay, great! You are indeed my good partner, you have evolved again! I was worried that your curse would be useless and my super plan would not be possible... "

"You don't know how long I've been waiting. The Yin Soen ruins to the west of Fanxing Town and the Blackwater Swamp to the north should have been cleaned up long ago. However, the mentally retarded captain just took you back, causing my plan to be delayed for so long. , I had the intention to kill him at that time..."

Mavis was silent for a few seconds and asked softly: "You only value my role, right?"

Rhodes was immersed in the ecstasy of resurrecting his brilliant plan and casually replied: "Of course, I have said before that we are the best partners, our abilities can perfectly cooperate, and no one is more suitable than us. Together."

For the next period of time, Rhodes kept talking.

But Mavis became cold again and hardly spoke.

Rhodes didn't care either, she had always been like this before.

The important thing now is that he is about to enter the next stage. If he can regain all the areas around Fanxing Town before the stars shine, then his plan will come to a perfect conclusion.

And Mavis is an important part of this plan.

Her super ability to attract monsters is unmatched by anyone.

That day, she lured almost half of the monsters in Fanxing Town, and then she allowed him to clear the place with a Wrath of the Void.

Because of this, Fanxing Town was able to recover so quickly and prosper so quickly.

Mavis has contributed a lot to the current situation.

The most valuable thing is that, for some unknown reason, Mavis is immune to the wrath of the void. She can completely attract the monster and stand next to him, thus eliminating the need to escape and greatly improving the efficiency of the explosion.

This established her irreplaceable first partner status, and the Centaur Annabeth could only be ranked second.

Of course, Rhodes is not just a means of Wrath of the Void.

Most of the million thunder stones in Fanxing Town have been charged.

If this super bomb can achieve the desired results, Rhodes will further explore this function.

By then, explosions will become the only art in the world.

The beautiful paradise that Molly told him will officially arrive.

Hahahahaha.

Rhodes smiled very happily. He kept talking about his super big plan and asked her about the usefulness of her other eleven curses to see if he could develop a new solution for killing monsters.

He also paid special attention to the characteristics of her soul.

He knew that "ice" was a property that could freeze monsters and was said to be able to extinguish fires, so it was very feared by the royal city.

"Mind control" sounds a little disturbing. In the royal city, this is an absolutely taboo feature.

But Mavis told him that "mind control" can only control souls that are spiritually connected to her, and souls with strong wills can also be exempted from her control.

"How to establish a spiritual connection?" Rhodes asked.

"Infuse my spiritual runes."

Mavis raised his hand, and a transparent symbol appeared on his hand.

It was like countless entangled pipes. Chaos and unreasonability were Rhode's only feelings.

Mavis dispersed the spiritual runes on his hand.

Rhodes asked again: "Where is the Dark Soul?"

Mavis said nonchalantly: "Turning the soul to black and gaining the characteristics of powerful power."

"Blackening" is the abbreviation of "darkening".

This is an irreversible degenerative change. Once the soul becomes dark, it becomes a monster.

Such people are called "degenerates".

Long-term negative emotions, extreme tension and depression, excessive anxiety, mania, etc. will all cause the darkness of the soul.

Therefore, Wangcheng pays special attention to the mental health of combatants.

Not only has a service department been established to serve combatants, but all medical and logistics personnel are specifically required to be good at relieving psychological stress. There are also dedicated psychologists who deliberately guide and create a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

All these measures only prevent one thing, the darkness of the soul.

And this characteristic actually turns the soul into darkness.

It can only be said that it is an absolutely taboo feature.

It is really commendable that Mavis can combine the three most taboo characteristics.

No wonder the people in Taboo Arms are so afraid of him.

Rhodes said half-jokingly: "Now I have some doubts that you are really the Son of Destruction."

Mephis said calmly: "The soul masters said that if the prophecy is true, the most dangerous and most likely to destroy the royal city is the dark soul. Once the soul completes its darkening, it may be related to the underworld." Great terror creates connections that lead to unknown catastrophes.”

"The second is mind control. If I control some important people, it may cause a devastating blow to the royal city."

"Finally, there is ice. It is the only attribute I can use. Although ice can extinguish fire, powerful fire is not easy to extinguish, let alone the holy fire that has burned countless firewood."

Rhodes nodded.

This judgment is correct. If you want to help Mephis escape from the shackles of fate in the future, you should start from this aspect.

The two chatted while walking and quickly visited Fanxing Town.

This extremely prosperous and life-filled town made Mephis feel a little confused. Not long ago, this place was a deserted and dead place. There was nothing here except monsters and dead things silent in the black mist.

But what she sees now is a town that has both historical deposits and vigorous vitality, as if new buds are blooming on ancient dead branches.

The crowds going back and forth, the countless busy figures, and the smiling faces shining like gems under the firelight made Mavis forget his identity for a moment, as if he had returned to his childhood.

At that time, she was also so carefree, living with great expectations for the future.

But reality beat her cruelly.

After countless useless struggles, Mephis's heart fell silent, and the flames that arose also cooled down.

She knew that she was finished and there would be no hope of salvation.

The person next to her once ignited a flame and gave her an illusion of hope.

But after the flowers fall, the cruel reality is still there. He is different from everyone, but he is also the same as everyone.

However, others approached her with ulterior motives.

And he approached her with a noble purpose.

I'd better die.

Mavis thought.

I am just an outsider in this world. I will never get love, nor will I have joy and happiness.

yes.

She sighed softly.

Only death is my destination.

After death there are no more worries, they no longer suffer, and everyone is at peace.

But before that, I have to help the person in front of me realize his dream.

After all, he was the only friendly companion who treated her as an equal.

Mavis followed Rhodes,

The bright firelight of Fanxing Town illuminated her, the crowds passed by her, and the lively voices enveloped her. She felt unprecedentedly lonely and extremely peaceful.

She suddenly smiled.

Thank you for accompanying me through this final journey.

Kacha made a soft sound, and the silver bracelet was crushed by her.

I will do my best to help you.

——

——

Twelve thousand yards west of Fanxing Town.

The three people who paid a huge price finally lured the dangerous Aries demon group from the ancient abyss.

This is the most difficult group of monsters to deal with, known as mankind's nightmare.

Without the characteristic of restraint, even high-level combatants would find it difficult to deal with it.

The three of them paid a lot of money to lure them here.

The worst thing is that Wangcheng seems to have discovered something is wrong. Various abnormal signs have made them realize that someone has crossed the bottom line and tried to deliberately destroy Fanxing Town, artificially causing the expedition to fail.

This is an act of betrayal.

The royal city has begun to check the personnel. Even if Manolobana, Talinas and others are covering them, they cannot stay here for too long.

So, this is their last chance.

Looking at this group of monsters that stretched for dozens of miles, Laiweier couldn't help but smile.

"This time, you will definitely succeed, right?"
