The Last King Of Darkness

Chapter 1691 - 788: Ruins_3

The south?

Rod immediately turned away from the Dream Realm and gathered Horus, Kai, Olivia, and the Dark Moon Princess—the current strongest members of Troli—in the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.

After listening to Rod’s statement, Horus frowned.

"The south? Is it your intuition?"

Rod nodded slightly. All prophecies from the Book of the Future were described by him as his intuition, a trick that never failed.

Olivia laughed, "Your intuition is really sharp."

The Dark Moon Princess softly said, "I trust Lord Rod."

Rod smiled awkwardly, trying to avoid eye contact. After the Ascension Ceremony, he had gained significant favor from the Dark Moon Princess. Olivia even jokingly told him that the number of times the Dark Moon mentioned Lord Rod now exceeded that of her own sister.

Kai also laughed and said, "I feel the same. Since Rod has pointed out the direction for us, let’s set out immediately. The sooner we obtain the Divine Source Material, the sooner Troli can rise."

"Wait a minute."

Horus stopped them.

"Although I also believe in Rod’s intuition, we at least need to understand the specific circumstances. The south is a large concept. How should we search for the Divine Source Material? According to the White Tower’s observations and the Investigation Legion’s report, there hasn’t been any active Ancient God discovered within 8000 yards south."

Rod paused for a moment, then quickly provided an answer.

"It’s the direction of our expansion. As long as we accelerate, we will soon discover clues to the Divine Source Material."

Kai said, "Then, this opportunity requires a thorough search."

Horus frowned, "The south of Troli is the most dangerous direction of all. It’s even more dangerous than the Dark Great Plain to the north. Among Troli’s four expansion directions, the south is the shortest. The rush to expand southward stems from the dense black fog there, the extreme pollution of the land. Besides the pollution from the black fog, there are many corruptions and curses mixed together, extremely difficult to purify. The most crucial thing is that the monsters in the south are also the most troublesome."

Olivia nodded lightly, "That is in the direction of Sagus Ancient City, which is further away from the Main Continent. Legends say, at the far end of the south is the Ash Land, beyond which lies the ’Outer Edge’, a truly uncharted dark territory, also known as the Dark Taboo Place."

Rod also felt somewhat troubled. If the land couldn’t be purified, searching would be impossible. The True King is powerful, but searching such vast terrain is difficult. Although the "Heavenly Sphere Clock" has the ability to locate relics, its probability is too small and requires Destiny Energy enhancement to be effective.

But the problem is, he doesn’t have any Destiny Energy right now.

What to do?

Rod fell into contemplation.

Just then, the Book of Knowledge said, "Master, the most effective means of purifying pollution is the [Goddess’ Tears]."

Rod frowned, "I know [Goddess’ Tears] is useful, but making it requires three Starlight Fragments. This raw material only falls on the earth during the moment of Star Flash, and quickly disappears. We don’t have any stock."

The Book of Knowledge flipped its pages, "Master, have you forgotten the two great Monarchs you just elevated? The Starlight Fragment is essentially a projection fragment of Star Power, falling on the earth when the night phase is excellent. Although the Full Moon night is not Star Flash, it dispels the black fog and significantly enhances Star Power. You must know, the moon itself is a star, just like the sun, they are the most unique stars."

Rod was shocked in his heart; he hadn’t thought of such a thing and quickly asked, "Horus, has the Royal City harvested many Starlight Fragments in these days?"

Since Olivia and the Dark Moon Princess ascended, the Full Moon night has been ongoing and hasn’t ended until today.

Horus pondered, "Probably tens of thousands... According to our research, this is the rare descent of the Moon Spirit. The moon’s power has increased on earth, and many Moon Stone mines are forming. It can be foreseen that in the coming years, we shouldn’t lack this material, the Moon Stone."

Olivia shook her head, "Archbishop, you’re wrong. The Moon Spirit is no longer rare."

The Dark Moon Princess softly said, "We can summon."

Olivia’s smile blossomed broadly, "If desired, from now on, every night will be a Full Moon."

The Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground became quiet, leaving only the sound of heavy breathing.

For a long time, Horus asked in disbelief, "Is what you said true?"

"Of course."

Olivia proudly replied, clasping the Dark Moon Princess’s hands. At that instant, powerful moon ripples spread out, infinite moonlight enveloped the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, and the pale light flickered softly, making Horus feel as if he was standing on a bright moon.

Rod also marveled in his heart, not expecting Olivia and the Dark Moon Princess to be so strong.

This is just a glimpse of the great Monarchs. What change will occur when they ascend to True Kings?

He looked forward with great anticipation.

The Illusion Realm flickered instantly, Horus’s expression turned complex and varied, but was quickly overtaken by ecstasy.

"Good, great, this is the momentum of the human rise!"

Horus trembled, as if seeing the rising dawn after Troli.

"Unstoppable, irresistible! All difficulties will be solved effortlessly!"

——

At Rod’s suggestion, Troli maintained its expansion in all four directions, only shifting the focus to the south.

Three True Kings, two great Monarchs, each responsible for different directions, searching deep south.

The main legion carried out carpet searches behind them.

The Royal City collected over 90,000 Starlight Fragments during this period, all quickly sent to Rod, who rapidly manufactured over 30,000 units of [Goddess’ Tears].

With them, pollution was no longer a problem, and the pace of southern expansion skyrocketed.

In just a few days, they conquered Sagus Ancient City, bringing this ancient Divine City under Troli’s control.

Humankind could finally thoroughly search this Divine City; Professor Bins and Professor Barrett led thousands of scholars personally for the search operation.

Because it was in an extremely remote location, this Divine City hadn’t been damaged, and scholars gained a lot of critical data from it.

Most importantly, it included the distribution of all rare mineral deposits and relics around Sagus City.

Rod immediately spotted a relic referred to as the "Swamp Dead Castle."
