Chapter 308 Abyss
Latest website: Rhodes is no stranger to abyssal rifts.
During the battle of Laisuo City, he entered the abyss rifts many times, and with the assistance of Theodore, he personally killed the monsters in them, the abyss troll and the abyss serpent, and destroyed the two rifts, one large and one small. The victory of the battle laid the foundation.
Therefore, he is very confident in this mission to destroy the abyss rift.
But others don't think so.
Vilas said: "Sir Rhodes, let's not be so anxious. This mission is very dangerous. According to the latest intelligence from the Survey Corps, what we are going to face may be a big evil ghost."
Vivian added: "The Great Evil Ghost is a very powerful demonic monster and is usually dealt with by high-level combatants."
Rhodes smiled and said, "Don't worry, we have a secret weapon. I can kill any big evil monster with one shot."
A Luo clapped her hands and smiled: "Yes, little Rhodes is invincible. Let's set off quickly. The infection in the abyss is very alarming. A large number of corrupted demons are plundering the west side of the defense zone, which has caused serious interference to our production. , we must eliminate it quickly, otherwise the production of sunstone will be seriously disrupted."
Bai Lang said coldly: "Without any preparation, setting off like this is courting death."
He turned around and looked into Rhodes' eyes.
"Boy, you haven't forgotten me, have you? I am Miss Qingyu's captain of the guard. I have been working in the 12th Defense Zone for forty years. Although you have made brilliant achievements in the past, your experience is too weak. I feel sorry for you. You've had more butter than you've ever eaten bread..."
Rhodes was surprised: "You have such a strong taste? Eating butter will make you feel greasy."
There were several chuckles coming from the surroundings, and Bai Lang's entire face darkened.
"Don't play tricks on me here. This is not the time for you to show off. This abyss fissure is very dangerous. If you act recklessly, the entire army will be wiped out and the regional situation will worsen. Can you afford the consequences?"
Rhodes smiled and said: "Mr. White Wolf, you can try to believe me."
Bai Lang said coldly: "Believe you? What qualifications do you have to make me believe you? When I saw you a year ago, you were not even a fire bearer."
"But I am now a member of the Fire Temple."
Bai Lang choked and looked a little ugly.
"I don't know why Your Excellency Dalin arranged it like this, and why the Fire Palace is anxious to accept a member like you, but no matter what your identity is, you must obey my orders."
A Luo curled her lips and said, "Stop talking nonsense, Uncle White Wolf. According to convention, members of the Fire Palace are the absolute core of any team. We should obey his orders unconditionally and assist him in completing his mission."
Bai Lang said angrily: "Aluo, where are you from?"
A Luo chuckled and took Rhode's arm.
"Of course I'm from Little Rod's side."
White Wolf was choked by Aro and was speechless. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated the status of Trorian's youngest hero in Qingyu's heart.
A Luo has always regarded her sister Qingyu as her life, and her sister's attitude is her attitude.
At this time, Vilas and Vivian also changed their views and advised: "Mr. White Wolf, Lord Rhodes has created countless miracles in the past, we can trust him."
The white wolf had a sullen face and said nothing.
Rhodes took the opportunity and said: "Let's go, the sooner we can eliminate this rift, the better."
This time, no one objected. Everyone got on the psychic carriage and sped towards the entrance of the abyss.
The carriage had no shock-absorbing system, so a group of people fully enjoyed the thrill of the ride.
Although with Rod's current coordination ability, he is not afraid of vibrations. He can completely adjust the height of his butt with the vibrations, making the bumps feel like a massage.
But doing this all the time was very draining, so he couldn't help but ask.
"We don't have a floating psychic carriage?"
Bai Lang gave him a cold look: "I'm sorry, my lady's defense area is too shabby and not worthy of the noble you."
Vilas explained in a low voice: "The floating carriage is only owned by the Royal City, and the floating carriage that can leave the city is only owned by the King and the Palace of Fire. There are no such expensive carriages in any other defense zone. Spiritual horses are very rare."
Rhodes bowed slightly: "I'm sorry, Mr. White Wolf, I apologize for my shallowness."
Bai Lang snorted and softened his tone a little.
"Little guy, what secret weapon do you have? You have to know that there is a huge difference between fighting in the abyss and fighting on the surface. The erosion in the abyss is very strong, the black mist is powerful, and there is no such thing as eternal fire to change the environmental properties. With its characteristics, our combat effectiveness will be greatly weakened, while the monsters will be greatly strengthened.”
Rhodes suddenly said: "No wonder we let Miss Qingyu and Lord Jon lead the team when we crusade against the Abyss Serpent."
"Of course."
There was a hint of pride in Vilas's voice.
"The eternal burning fire is the most important characteristic among us. It is a moving protective fire. It is the sun around us, shining on our bodies, dispelling darkness and destroying monsters for us."
Bai Lang said calmly: "Miss Qingyu's characteristics have reached level seven."
Rhodes clearly felt that the atmosphere in the carriage was a little tense, and the faces of Vilas and Vivian were slightly solemn.
Vivian said softly: "Miss Qingyu is really talented. She has overcome the biggest difficulty of Eternal Fire at such a young age, adding another brilliance of fire to Trolian. In this way, we have two people who can pass on the fire." A qualified person.”
Apparently, the other person she was talking about was Jon.
It seems that the competition between them has not stopped.
Rhodes thought.
Jon should have reached level seven characteristics very early, but they didn't expect Qingyu to reach it so quickly.
Rhodes didn't like the matter of Wang Zheng very much, so he changed the subject.
"I remember there is another candidate for the king, what is his name..."
Vivian politely replied: "Modric Law Starsong."
"Oh...what level is he?"
Vivian pursed her lips and smiled: "Xinge is only fifteen years old and has just been a fire bearer for a year. Of course, he is only at the first level."
Rhodes asked curiously: "Where is the king?"
Everyone looked solemn, and Vilas said in an awe-inspiring and cautious tone: "The king's characteristics have already reached the top. He who resonates with the holy fire has become as good as a god."
Rhodes was horrified: "Is it so strong? No wonder every time I asked the king if my spiritual power had become stronger, he said there was not much difference. I thought the king was jealous of my growth rate and deliberately suppressed me. ”
These words made everyone laugh, the tense atmosphere was swept away, and the atmosphere inside and outside the carriage was filled with joy.
Bai Lang had some inexplicable affection for him, but he still didn't relax.
"Little guy, you are too arrogant. You have to know that throughout the ages, there have been countless geniuses. People with great wisdom, talent, and ability are as numerous as the stars in the sky. Even when the fire is fading and the human race is declining, Today, there are many geniuses who are stronger than you."
A Luo pouted and said dissatisfied: "Uncle White Wolf said nonsense, little Rhodes is the best, I have tried it!"
Rhodes smiled and said: "How great is it?"
Ah Luo opened her hands and showed an exaggerated length: "It's so great!"
Vivian burst out laughing, and for some reason her face suddenly turned red.
Bai Lang said calmly: "When he returns to the Palace of Fire and sees the peak scene, he will understand this. He is not the only one who has our hope. Maybe there is a real savior among them."
A Luo covered her ears and said loudly: "I don't care, he is the best!"
Vilas also said: "In terms of performance alone, Lord Rhodes is indeed the most dazzling this year."
Rhodes was moved. From their reactions, it seemed that he was indeed not the strongest.
Isn’t this the fastest growth rate?
Rhodes was slightly horrified.
He had heard similar words before, but he didn't expect that he, who had crossed such a large level in one year, was not the fastest.
Suddenly, some hope arose in his heart.
Such a powerful human being should have a future, right?
It shouldn’t be destroyed easily, right?
Rhodes felt a fire burning in his heart, and his blood was filled with surging motivation.
I can't relax, I have to work harder.
He thought to himself.
I want to be the strongest among this group of stars, I want to ignite the fire of mankind and illuminate the dark road ahead for us.
——
The entrance to the Abyss Fissure is to the west of the Twelve Defense Areas, but the specific location cannot be determined and needs to be found.
This is one of the main reasons why the Abyssal Rift has become Trollian's most troublesome disaster.
If you can't find the entrance, you can't get in.
Everyone searched for a long time in the west, killing groups of corrupted demons, but they still could not find the entrance.
And these corrupted demons are just monsters transformed from the breath of the abyss. After killing them, there is no soul income at all, only a few dozen points of pitiful soulless souls.
This made Rhodes very unhappy.
Soulless souls were his basic resource, and he could never have too much. Such a small amount of income was simply not enough for him to grow, so he couldn't help but ask.
"What exactly is this abyss rift?"
Vilas replied: "It is a fragment of space, scattered between the layers of the realm. It is in a silent state at ordinary times. It will only be activated when it is disturbed. And because it has a low potential, it will always appear in underground."
"Fragments of space? Has the abyss been shattered?"
Vilas replied cautiously: "The current theory is that these are fragments of the surface abyss. They were destroyed in some unknown disaster. The fragments without the support of powerful monsters disappeared and melted, while the fragments with powerful monsters were able to maintain their existence." , and its monsters have become the support point of the fragmented space."
Rhodes asked in surprise: "Surface abyss? Is there an inner abyss?"
Everyone's expressions became serious.
Bai Lang said in a deep voice: "The real abyss is the dark side that even gods cannot reach. Now there is a theory that the source of the black mist is the real abyss."
Vilas nodded: "Your Excellency Bai Lang is right."
"Legend has it that there was a human being in ancient times who, because of his own greed, released the great terror in the abyss, causing great pollution that cannot be eliminated in this world."
"Therefore, searching for the existence of the real abyss, finding the truth about the birth of the black mist, and the method to get rid of it are also one of the important issues in the royal city."
A Luo clenched her little fist.
"Yes, that man is really evil! He must have had no little brother and no eyesight to give birth to a son because he made everyone so unlucky."
Vivian pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Sister A'luo, this is just a legend. I don't know whether it is true or not. Maybe that person does not exist at all."
A Luo said angrily: "I think it's true. The black mist sounds like it comes from the abyss, and in the cracks of the abyss, the black mist is extremely thick, even more terrifying than the black mist in the depths of darkness. The fragments of the abyss are like this, and the real abyss is absolutely unimaginable.”
Vilas said in a deep voice: "What Miss A'luo said makes sense to a certain extent. This is also the direction of our main suspicion, but until the real truth is found, no one can be sure."
Listening to their words, Rhodes was thoughtful. He always felt that he seemed to have overlooked something, but he couldn't catch the firefly of inspiration.
After searching for a while, everyone explored all possible areas, but still did not find the entrance to the abyss rift.
Only the Corruption Demon kept jumping out of the mist.
Bai Lang suddenly said: "I understand. The entrance to the rift is covered by a barrier from the spirit world, so we can't see it with the naked eye, nor with spiritual vision, because it is a real existence in the spirit world."
"What should we do?" A'luo sat on the ground a little frustrated, but she still hugged Rhode's thigh.
Vilas said: "We can only inform Wangcheng and wait for the spiritual world master to support us."
"No." Vivian shook her head: "All the spiritual masters are on the front line and there is no way they can come to us."
"Then we can only seek help from the Palace of Fire. Among the high-level combatants, there are those with abilities related to the spirit world."
"no."
Bai Lang denied this statement.
"The Palace of Fire is already very busy. Otherwise, how could this little guy get in like this? How could such a major threat send him as a reserve member?"
A Luo said angrily: "Uncle White Wolf, I don't allow you to belittle little Rhodes."
She hugged Rod's legs tightly.
"You must have a solution, right?"
Rhodes was thinking about the abyss when he suddenly felt a piece of softness rubbing against his legs. When he lowered his head, he saw A Luo's big shining eyes and her pleading gaze.
At this time, no man can refuse.
And Rhodes didn't intend to refuse.
He smiled and said, "Of course I have a way."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on him, and A Luo jumped up from the ground and hugged him.
"Yeah, I knew little Rod was omnipotent."
Bai Lang said with a steady expression: "What can we do?"
Rhodes tapped his finger, and an invisible wave spread.
"Don't you know? The sun crystal veins in Fanxing Town were covered by the spiritual barrier. I unlocked it."
With his fingers spread out, the space seemed to be distorted.
"I can control the spirit world."
boom!
There was a strange sound that seemed to come from the void.
Everyone suddenly looked back.
On the hill not far away, a huge black crack opened up, like a malicious eye, staring at them.
