Chapter 369 A New Beginning
Latest website: The sacrifice was completed, and the dead soul dream demon completely disappeared into the air.
The dream gradually returned to normal, with white mist filling the air, the night sky shrouded, and the only two stars shining.
The disturbance caused by the sacrifice was no longer visible, but Rhodes felt something different keenly. There was a strange sense of oppression in his soul, as if some kind of terrifying existence was approaching him.
He seemed to have fallen into a dark wasteland, with countless pairs of eyes peering at him from the shadows, which was creepy and like a ray of light on his back.
Rhodes clearly knew that the war with Black Mist had begun.
If the dream world was just about secretly having sex before, now it's about doing it openly.
The Book of Knowledge stared at the portentous side of the obelisk, flapping its pages uneasily, with messy words jumping on the pages.
"No, no, no... no terrors, no big demons either..."
The puppet said calmly: "Book of Knowledge, don't worry, the source feedback is not that fast, we still have time."
"I know!"
The book of knowledge jumped up and its pages flew wildly.
"You don't need to tell me, nothing can exceed my expectations!"
Rhodes coughed and interrupted their quarrel: "Let me ask, is there some ultimate source of terror? As long as it is eliminated, the black fog will disappear and the world will be bright again?"
The Book of Knowledge turned the pages: "I can't answer this question accurately, because I can't prove that it exists, and I can't prove that it doesn't exist."
"Then why does disturbance lead to invasion? Does the black mist have a will?"
The Book of Knowledge quickly wrote: "I don't know. Finding the source of the black fog and unlocking the secret of its existence is the biggest problem in thousands of years."
"However, we have spent thousands of years verifying that there is a mechanism called source feedback in the black fog. Any disturbance caused by the existence that threatens it will feedback as time goes by and the impact intensifies. To the deepest part of the black mist.”
"Such feedback will continue to accumulate, and the disturbance and impact will become larger and larger, thus awakening more and more powerful unspeakable things, until we are finally eliminated."
Rhodes smiled and said: "It doesn't necessarily mean that we will be eliminated."
The Book of Knowledge said angrily: "Our chances of winning now are very small! It's because you believed in some retarded suggestion!"
"Dreamland is a far greater existence than you think. We have dealt an unprecedented blow to the black mist in the past, and even almost eliminated it. Therefore, in the source feedback of the black mist, there is always our Memory, any disturbance related to dreams, will cause extremely intense source feedback."
It slapped the pages of the book angrily, extremely dissatisfied with Rhodes' choice to believe in the puppet instead of it.
"Do you know what kind of existence we just sacrificed?"
"A powerful symbiote!"
"Over the past tens of millions of years, countless powerful beings have been eroded and polluted, corrupted, degenerated and fester, but only monsters that have been corrupted to the ultimate degree can be called symbionts!"
"They are the terrifying guardians of the black mist, the darkest monsters, the most extremely powerful and twisted existences."
"Do you know what it means that we used the power of dreams to fundamentally obliterate a symbiote that has a special connection with the black mist?"
Rhodes said calmly: "It means that we have angered the entire dark world, but so what? When we become stronger, we will always anger it, and if we are always cautious and timid, we will never Can’t get stronger.”
The book of knowledge turned over the pages, but no words could be written.
For the first time, it discovered that this owner, who it thought was very strange, had another side that it could not imagine.
The doll looked at its owner, with a faint flash of divine light in its dim yellow eyes.
Rhodes smiled and said: "As the puppet said, the world is falling into darkness. If we don't work hard, it will be too late."
The Book of Knowledge jumped up: "That's not what Avro said, that's what it plagiarized! I actually knew this a long time ago, but I just didn't say it on purpose."
"Okay, okay, let's quickly put these dissociated souls into the storage room."
"That's right!" The Book of Knowledge loudly ordered: "Aphro, quickly collect these soul dissociation products for me!"
The puppet didn't answer and silently began to move it.
The Book of Knowledge jumped up and down on the side and directed: "Be careful! These elements are very precious! If you are missing even a little bit, the master will tear you apart!"
It turned around and wrote carefully.
"Master, you must become stronger as soon as possible. The soul of the Dream Demon has provided us with a lot of souls and resources. I suggest that it makes sense for you to sacrifice it. The most important one is the source of strength."
Rhodes asked curiously: "What's the use?"
The Book of Knowledge said with confidence: "With the powerful source, you can ignite the big stars!"
"What is the big star?"
"Stars that are more powerful from the source have a higher level than other stars, but they need the support of other stars. At our current level, there are two big stars to choose from, and [Soul Burner] can be skipped temporarily."
The Book of Knowledge ran to the soul of the obelisk and clicked lightly. The scene inside the soul moved quickly and stopped in front of two extinguished stars.
"Look!"
Two lines of text appeared in front of the stars.
One line reads:
【Power of Titan】
Ignition requires: 1.5 billion souls, 150,000 souls, 15 soul firewood, and a power source.
Another line reads:
【truth】
Ignition requires: 10 soul firewood, 1 king's soul, and a power source.
——
Rhodes was shocked. These two stars gave him a very unusual and shocking feeling, and it wasn't just the huge need.
The Book of Knowledge wrote slightly proudly: "We can choose to ignite one of them. If you are not willing to spend so much, you can also degrade the strong source into 10 sources, but I do not recommend that you do this. This is very Very bad behavior.”
Rhodes was silent for a few seconds. Although both [Colossus Power] and [Truth] looked very strong, [Truth] required a king's soul, while [Colossus Power] required more souls, spirituality, and soul wood. salary.
"The king's soul...comes from a king-level monster?"
The Book of Knowledge curtly replied, "Yes."
"Is it possible for me to get it now?"
"It's hard."
Rhodes breathed out: "Then let's take [Giant Power] as our primary goal."
The Book of Knowledge rarely agreed with his words: "You are right, Master, we already have 1 billion souls and 100,000 spiritual beings."
Rhodes nodded. He knew very well that the most difficult thing was 15 soul firewood, which required 150 points of divinity.
"How long until the stars shine?"
The Book of Knowledge checked the Square of Stars: "About three-quarters of the way has been completed, and there may be three weeks left. We must obtain as much divinity as possible. As long as there are enough divinities, any invasion will be impossible. not afraid."
Rhodes' head hurt again, he was really lacking in divinity.
This time, I don’t know how much I can get or whether it will be enough.
The Book of Knowledge was also very worried and continued to write: "Master, you have to know that dreams are the protectors of human beings, but we obtain divinity from our positive changes and improvements to human beings. The point is [your effect】!"
"If it weren't for your help, we wouldn't have been able to achieve divinity."
Rhodes nodded. He must be stronger in order to change mankind even more, hold up mankind that is sliding into the dark abyss, and gain more divinity.
This is a mutually reinforcing process.
In fact, his growth rate has been very fast, but Rhodes always has a feeling that the stronger he is, the smaller he feels.
On the contrary, when he was very weak, he felt quite strong.
Perhaps, this is the fearlessness of the ignorant.
Rhodes put aside his distracting thoughts and asked: "What is the use of these 166 ice soul trait blocks?"
The soul trait block is the condensation of the soul, containing the power of its characteristics. The stronger the characteristics of the soul, the more it can be condensed.
It was the first time for Rhodes to see so many soul attribute blocks. He had rarely seen them before.
The Book of Knowledge replied: "Soul trait blocks have many uses. In addition to being used to transform ordinary people, they can also be given to people with the same traits to improve their traits."
Rhodes nodded: "I can give it to Mephis, which can be regarded as improving human power. It should also have divinity."
The Book of Knowledge quickly replied: "Of course, it's not just that. The more you change her, the more she will give you back. Can you understand the logic of this? You should quickly expand your troops and recruit more subordinates and give them strength.”
"In this way, what they do for mankind will also be counted as your divinity!"
Rhodes was shocked, and suddenly, a bright light opened his head.
It turns out it can still be like this!
No wonder I always feel like I have so little divinity. It turns out I haven’t mastered the correct method!
good!
This time when I go back, I must immediately expand the Black War Group, and then train them like crazy!
Let them be my wings!
Wa hahaha.
Rhodes was excited and couldn't wait to go back.
The hot obelisk gave him a premonition that something must be happening outside.
But before that, there are a few things to do.
"Book, please summarize it about the techniques for obtaining divinity, and then read it to me word for word."
The Book of Knowledge glanced sideways at the puppet who was still carrying the pages, and wrote very proudly: "Yes! Master!"
Rhodes continued to ask: "Also, what is the use of this nightmare fuel?"
The Book of Knowledge replied diligently: "This is the element used by the Fountain of Hope and the Factory of Dreams. We are going to the Kingdom of Light to find its fragments."
Rhodes nodded: "Shu, from now on, all our actions will be accelerated. Don't worry too much about disturbance."
The Book of Knowledge quickly wrote: "Don't worry, Master, as long as I am here, even a pig... you can also become a great master of dreams."
Rhodes ignored the voice of the Book of Knowledge and took one last look at the numbers on the obelisk. It had changed to:
Soul Strength: 672200
Soul Star: 8
Humanity: 19.61 million
Divinity: 0
Soulless soul: 1.021 billion
Obelisk: one source, one strong source
Soul Altar: 1028 Souls
Spirituality: 120,000
Storage: 10 Incubus Fuels, 166 Ice Soul Trait Blocks, 86891 Soul Residues, omitted.

I'm so fat...
Following this thought, Rhode's soul fell rapidly as if weightless, and the fog of Mo Lake passed by his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw countless people watching him and a ball of golden flames surrounding him.
"this……"
Rhodes only spoke half a word before the roaring sound in the hall hit him.
"Wake up! Mr. Rhodes finally wakes up!"
"Great! I knew he was going to wake up when I saw the hoarfrost disappearing from his body!"
"As expected of His Highness Qingyu!"
"Long live the fire of protection! Long live the fire of life! Long live the fire of light!"
"Praise the fire! Praise the sun! Praise His Highness Qingyu!"
How is this going?
Rhodes didn't know why. Just when he was about to stand up, a clear and gentle voice sounded in his ears: "Are you feeling better?"
This is Qingyu's voice.
Only then did Rhode realize that the flame was in human form, and Qing Yu's face could be vaguely seen.
This... Qingyu and I have merged?
The next moment, Rhodes understood what was going on.
Oh it's you! No wonder the obelisk can suddenly radiate so much heat.
Rhodes was moved and immediately replied: "I'm fine, Your Highness Qingyu!"
Qingyu smiled slightly, briefly told the strange situation before, and asked: "Do you know what happened to you?"
White Wolf walked over with a gloomy expression: "Did the unknown person Mephis curse you? I will immediately notify the Internal Affairs Judgment Office and Silver Oath to arrest her!"
Rhodes was shocked and immediately replied: "No, it's not her! It was me who was cursed by a monster in the spirit world, and it has nothing to do with Mavis."
White Wolf looked at him hesitantly: "The White Tower once gave you two prophecies. One is that someone around you will hurt you, and the other is that you will encounter a huge crisis in the near future. Archbishop Horus put these two things into perspective. Tell me and let me watch you closely. Now it seems that the crisis just now is obviously the crisis mentioned in the prophecy, but the person who hurt you has not been found around you. "
Qingyu smiled and said: "The prophecy is not necessarily accurate. The important thing is that little Rhodes is safe."
Bai Lang said gloomily: "Not sure yet."
Later, under the arrangement of White Wolf, Rhodes underwent a comprehensive health care. All the nuns and sisters were full of praise, saying that he was in good health and had no functional problems.
White Wolf specially invited Soul Master Priscilla.
After watching her private movies several times, Rod once again succeeded in getting deep with Priscilla.
Later, Priscilla issued a professional report stating that there was nothing wrong with Rod's soul, that it was very pure and not cursed.
At this point, Bai Lang was completely relieved.
Rhodes also returned to the battle. Apart from this small episode, nothing seemed to have changed.
Only Rhodes knew that everything was different.
——
Empire.
White Tower.
Star Observation Deck.
On the huge astronomical instrument, Meredith, the Lord of the White Tower, looked up at the sky. His extraordinary power helped his eyes penetrate the black fog and see the magnificent starry sky.
"The stars are changing... The obsidian stars are going forward and backward, and the sequence stars are parallel. Ah, there is an unknown disturbance in the spiritual world, and a powerful force is rising."
"What's the future? What's the future like?"
The astronomical instrument made of star steel rotated roaringly, and mist-like spiritual energy rose from all directions and converged on Meredith's body.
"Well, I saw boundless darkness, and the black tide rising in the sea. Is it a disaster?"
"No, no, there are twinkling stars in the darkness. That is hope...but where is the hope?"
More mist-like spiritual energy flew in, and the entire white tower was glowing, attracting the attention of countless people.
"Hope, hope, I want to know where the hope is? Where is it?"
Meredith found a clue, but it was too elusive to grasp.
He searched eagerly, using all his strength.
Suddenly, there was an ear-piercing explosion, the planetarium shattered, and large pieces of the orbit fell down, hitting the observatory.
"teacher!"
Countless prophets and students were alarmed. White-robed Yinyeta rushed to the teacher's side as quickly as possible and helped him up from the ruins of steel.
"Teacher, what's wrong with you?"
The noble Lord of the White Tower was in an extremely embarrassed state at the moment. His prophecy robe was covered with tears and dust, his soul was weak, his spiritual energy was disordered, and even his beard was torn off by something.
"I glimpsed destruction and life in destiny."
Meredith pushed away the student's support and looked up at the stars.
"But I didn't find their source."
Yinyeta said anxiously: "Teacher, such Mohu's prophecy cannot explain anything..."
"No."
Meredith looked calm, but her eyes were determined.
"You don't know what inspired me at that time. I must get this prophecy."
"Teacher, you mean..."
Meredith said calmly: "Get ready for the final prophecy ceremony of the source."
"This time, I will definitely be able to glimpse the true future of mankind."

——
Empire.
Deep in the sewers.
In the cave.
The dark shadow sat on his stone throne, flipping through the Book of Destiny.
Due to repeated damage, this quaint big book now looks damaged, and repairing it is a very long process.
Therefore, during this period of time, Black Shadow did not use this book.
But today, he suddenly opened it on a whim.
A smile gradually bloomed on the black shadow's face, and he soon started laughing wildly.
"Hahahahaha!"
A doomsday bishop immediately asked: "Grand Hierarch, what did you see?"
"I saw the shadow of death, the future of destruction, the nightmare is about to come, and the dark demon will come to the world to purify this last place of resistance!"
All the believers said in unison: "Praise the darkness! Praise the black mist!"
The black shadow laughed wildly and said: "This is fate! Those who defy fate will not end well!"
"Intensify my assassination efforts! As long as we get rid of him, the Dark Age will come soon, and I will rule the world!"
"Hahahahaha!"
Crazy laughter echoed in the cave, but Rhodes didn't know what kind of nightmare he was about to face.
