The Last King Of Darkness

Chapter 1719 - 797: Human Demon (Two-in-One)

All along the way, enormous brown-black stones were visible. This place resembled a vast underground city, built for unknown reasons.

Thick black fog churned around, but Rod did not see any monsters, nor did he discover the "heart."

This path was exceptionally clean, with nothing but dust.

In another direction, the harvests of Horus and others were significant, and through spiritual communication, their joyful voices continued to ring out.

Each piece of divine source material and divine stone would make the Trolians more powerful.

Not to mention the legendary "Divine Flesh," which Horus was surprised to discover, was not flesh in essence, but rather a special material.

After the exploration and analysis by "Bright Light," the archbishop decisively identified that the so-called "Divine Flesh" was a special creation made from light stone, pure star marrow, pure star source, and an unknown substance. With special methods, it could be reverted to these four elements.

No wonder Taranor paid so much attention to the "Divine Flesh."

Through spiritual communication, Olivia asked, "Archbishop, what is the inherent function of Divine Flesh?"

Horus pondered, "It has a strong sealing and preservation function. I believe its primary purpose is to preserve these four elements, which you know, are very prone to degradation and extremely difficult to preserve."

"Why do mad monsters center around them?"

"That’s only a guess. Perhaps their structure and form are suitable for the birth of such monsters."

Horus paused for a moment, and continued.

"I’m increasingly convinced that the ancient gods above are tools for creating these monsters."

Olivia sighed, "I truly can’t believe it, what kind of relic is this, and for what purpose unknown ancient existences created it."

Rod suddenly said, "I have a feeling this place is more like a graveyard."

"A graveyard?"

Horus pondered, "Possibly, but what is buried below? Ancient gods?"

"It’s possible." Kai’s heavy voice sounded disharmonious in the spiritual communication: "I have a very dangerous feeling, everyone must be careful."

Horus laughed, "Don’t worry, Kai, the heavy past made you very cautious, but now is a new era, the era of fire and human revival."

Olivia sighed, "These hearts are enough for us to undergo earth-shattering changes... In the past 1800 years of Trolian, we have never been so strong, and all this has happened in just a few short years, as if the world has opened its doors to us, and the legendary Fire Will has finally awakened after sleeping for eons, bestowing upon all fire creatures the supreme fire blessing."

This was something Kai had to admit because he had revived due to such a miracle. Since his awakening, Trolian has undergone earth-shattering changes, one victory after another, increasingly stronger Holy Fire, countless peerless talents, countless rare resources, kings once rare, now no longer, and Troli now had 4 True Kings, with more to come in the near future.

Perhaps humanity is indeed stepping towards revival.

Much like the miraculous rise during the Fire Epoch following the end of the Epoch of Gods.

The Dark Epoch itself came to a turning point.

Even if this was a fateful cycle, it might last for thousands of years at least. In the face of such a great opportunity, they might have a chance of attaining ultimate victory.

Thinking of this, Kai said no more, focusing on searching for more "hearts."

Strangely enough, it’s uncertain why these precious elements were shaped in such a form, but soon, Horus found the answer.

"Made by Ancient Gods."

"I found many empty rooms, from the remaining white ash, it appeared the rooms were once covered in flesh, with small holes above leading directly to the surface."

"My Bright Light saw that one of the small holes contained a freshly-made heart, which had not yet been returned."

"Find it!"

Horus’s voice was filled with excitement.

"There must be an elemental warehouse here!"

"The Ancient Gods definitely obtained elements from this warehouse and crafted them into heart shapes... If stimulated externally, they would fuse the heart with decayed humanity, creating mad monsters to attack external threats!"

"This is the fundamental reason Taranor continues to be attacked!"

"And this warehouse must be a relic in this graveyard! Perhaps it’s the evolution of an ancient god’s body!"

Rod immediately realized that Horus’s deduction was most likely closest to the truth.

From Taranor’s records, it’s seen that mad monster attacks only occurred when they approached the "strangeness."

After Taranor’s fall, none of these mad monsters were born for countless years.

Their arrival was recent. If they hadn’t discovered the "strangeness," waiting a while longer could very possibly result in the same events as those in "Taranor" years ago.

Having deduced the truth of matters in such a short time, Rod couldn’t help but wonder if Horus’s wisdom had previously been sealed by the black fog and only returned when his power became strong.
