The Last King Of Darkness
Chapter 892 - 479: Voice of Destruction (Double-Length)
CHAPTER 892: CHAPTER 479: VOICE OF DESTRUCTION (DOUBLE-LENGTH)
Rod pointed forward once again.
"This way."
He tried to keep his words concise to avoid agitating the Main Star Priest’s chaotic mind.
Whether he regained clarity or plunged into further chaos, both outcomes would be disastrous.
Maintaining the status quo was the best option.
The Main Star Priest pointed his magic wand in the direction Rod indicated, and an endless spiritual light burst forth from the purple rod. This spiritual energy was stronger than anything Rod had ever seen, even surpassing the Great Demon God.
The only thing that puzzled him slightly was that despite the immense spiritual energy, its absolute spiritual power strength remained at the fifteenth level.
As stray thoughts flitted through his mind, this time Rod witnessed the process of meteor formation firsthand.
Countless meteors appeared from the Spirit Realm, summoned forth, and in mere seconds filled the sky.
Fiery red light obscured the black fog, leaving long trails across the sky, and fell into Starry Sky City.
Another wave of monsters was reduced to ashes in the towering flames and massive tremors.
Rod noticed that the massive disturbance caused by the meteor landing was being quietly diminished, possibly by Horus’s handiwork.
With two strikes, most monsters had already turned to ashes, and the monsters in the nearby area were nearly cleared out, even Starry Avenue was significantly emptier.
The Main Star Priest asked, "Commander Eric, why can’t I sense the Dark Demon’s presence? Where has it gone?"
Rod’s heart sank; this question was difficult to answer.
His mind raced, rapidly searching through his memory for all relevant information, cautiously responding, "Victory was achieved at Gray Mountain."
"That’s great news."
"The Dark Demon was slain by the Fighting Star Knight Order, proving that Commander Eric has mastered the mysteries of the stars. Perhaps after the battle, he can attempt to step into the domain of kings."
"Becoming a Monarch Level power is the first step to saving the world."
The Main Star Priest seemed unaware that Commander Eric was standing right beside him. His consciousness was completely distorted, immersed in past memories, and drifting erratically.
This phenomenon related to the Starry Kingdom is unique, as no monster has ever retained human memories or even completely chaotic rationality.
"Eric’s talent is extremely high. If he weren’t so indulged in conversing with his lady, he could have progressed further long ago. If we could produce another True King, this doomsday catastrophe might not cause such severe losses."
"But no matter how powerful the black fog is, we will inevitably rise in adversity, resurrect in despair, and Starry Sky City will never fall. I am the Main Star Priest Astelios, I will guard the Royal City until death!"
"Long live the stars!"
Spiritual energy emitted intense vibrations as Rod quickly indicated the position again using starry language.
This time, an invisible gravity field descended from the sky, compressing all the monsters on the ground into a single mass, causing bodies to crumble, bones to break, and flesh to tear. Black fog shot out from this large clump of meat like blood.
In an instant, hundreds of monsters perished.
Below, Luo Weiya and others were all dumbfounded.
Luo Weiya whispered, "In life, the Main Star Priest was at least a Monarch Level power, wasn’t he?"
Olivia replied in a similarly hushed tone, "Exactly, without a doubt. He has already taken half a step forward from Commanders of Law towards entering the king’s domain."
"How does he compare to the King?"
"Naturally, he falls short of the King, but for the Main Star Priest to reach this stage purely relying on his own strength is truly extraordinary. For the Starry Kingdom to produce a Monarch Level power outside of the Holy Fire indicates that their strength far exceeds Trolian. Our gap is even larger than imagined."
Jelaba said in a deep voice, "We’re fortunate not to have chosen a plan to go to war with him. Behind him is a fallen king, and he is undoubtedly King Level."
They tacitly avoided using spiritual energy communication, as the disturbance of spiritual energy is very sensitive. Conversely, sound disturbances are much smaller.
Faced with extremely powerful monsters, using ordinary methods to communicate is actually the best approach.
"How can Rod command that monster? Did Mephit use spiritual interference?"
"Impossible. Spiritual interference cannot affect King Level monsters, as strong Source Laws will automatically sever all external disturbances... Otherwise, Mephit wouldn’t receive such treatment."
Luo Weiya was silent for a few seconds.
This was a fact; for the Royal City, the true constraint on their expansion was the King Level monsters.
If Mephit could control King Level monsters, then her value would far surpass her sins and the risk posed by the ’Son of Destruction’ prophecy.
"Why is that?"
"Perhaps there’s something we don’t know, or maybe just as some people in the Royal City speculate, Rod is the reincarnated soul of a powerful ancient Divine, and that soul fragment must be very large. Aside from Alan, I’ve never seen such a person."
"But the White Tower has ruled out this possibility, stating that Rod’s soul is a normal soul, without fragments of a Divine."
Luo Weiya mused, "The White Tower might not be accurate either. Meredith once prophesied that I would make a fire pact with Olivia and have a big fat son. Didn’t that fail?"
Olivia coldly sneered, "Keep dreaming, barbarian. I might have a child with Rod, but not with you."
Luo Weiya turned his gaze to Jelaba and signaled with his eyes: "See?"
Jelaba ignored him and continued, "This is a once-in-millennium opportunity. I’ve read in ancient texts that when humans rise, various unusual events often occur, leading to all sorts of unbelievable victories and inexplicable coincidences, as if some supreme force is helping us."
