The Last King Of Darkness

Chapter 1729 - 799: Destruction Countdown_3

His entire body was covered in dust, as if he had just been through a battle.

"Rod."

He stared intently into Rod’s eyes.

"What exactly happened? What did you stir up?"

Rod recounted the events in the briefest terms, and upon hearing the horror of the Human Demon, everyone’s expressions turned somber.

When they heard of Kai’s demise, everyone was incredulous.

Peibela’s lips turned blue, trembling as she asked, "Little Rod, you, you said, Kai, is dead?"

Rod nodded heavily.

The atmosphere became stifling, no one could believe that the immensely powerful Sun Knight could fall at this time.

However, the information Rod brought back couldn’t possibly be false, and the Great Prophet Iyeta had long foreseen this ominous reality.

Someone in the crowd began to weep, only Viheler started swearing:

"Nonsense, it’s impossible, this is fake, how could Kai, that bastard, just die like that? I haven’t surpassed him, damn it, damn it, tell me it’s fake, Rod, tell me it’s fake... I beg you, just tell me..."

Halfway through speaking, this rough man was already in tears.

Rod’s heart was also filled with darkness, he originally thought that he, Horus, and the Sun Knight would become Trolian’s most powerful trio, yet he didn’t expect that one would fall so soon.

At this moment, in the dream, the puppet suddenly spoke: "No, Kai might not be dead."

Rod was startled: "What did you say?"

"Master, the Dream Fragment just obtained, it’s a fragment of the Eternal Square, if we’re lucky, we might still obtain Kai’s Eternal Statue, in this way, his spirit will be forever preserved in the dreamscape."

The Book of Knowledge, which was examining the Star, suddenly realized: "Right, Master, quickly restore the Eternal Square."

Rod almost rushed to the edge of the Eternal Square, the pattern on the back of his hand instantly turned into gray mist sinking into the square.

The searing white light exploded instantly, engulfing the dreamscape, and when it subsided, Rod saw a brand new Eternal Square, it was larger and more grandiose than before, its area was more than ten times larger than before, and long, circular columns were arranged in a special way upon the square, adding to its majesty and solemnity.

"Twenty-three percent!" the Book of Knowledge shouted: "The Eternal Square is complete!"

Rod raised his head, the information of the Eternal Square instantly fed back into his soul.

[The Eternal Square has gained new abilities]

[Eternal Statue]: No longer requires matter, as long as the permeating spirit gathers, one can awaken the Eternal Statue.

[Dream Guardian]: During an invasion, all Eternal Statues will provide strength to the dreamscape.

[Special Condensation]: It’s possible to form a new Eternal Statue in a special manner.

[Star Cycle]: After each cycle of the stars, the Eternal Statues will change.

[Conventional]: Using ashes, honor, and willpower, one can form a new Eternal Statue.

——

After reading it, Rod’s brow furrowed slightly.

The complete Eternal Square is indeed very powerful, much more useful than the dry, clumsy abilities of the past.

But the problem is, Rod doesn’t have Kai’s ashes, it’s simply not possible to recall Kai’s spirit to form an Eternal Statue here.

The puppet then said: "Master, [Special Condensation], you can try it."

[Special Condensation]?

Rod was slightly puzzled, "What does ’special manner’ mean?"

He stretched out his hand, with a thought, he activated this ability.

But there was no response, and no movement.

Failed?

But the next moment, Rod suddenly saw spots of golden light converging from all directions.

Soon, a humanoid figure radiating sunlight appeared before him, he was of short stature, unfamiliar in appearance, with eyes flickering with strange light.

He looked at Rod, his gaze calm yet complicated, and disappeared in an instant.

But Rod felt as if something more was added to the square.

The next instant, a burst of golden light erupted in the square, a statue clad in golden armor appeared within the golden light.

He was tall in stature, with a gentle expression, his eyes seemed to always carry a smile, his right hand holding a sword, left hand carrying a shield, and a burning sun painted on his chest.

It was none other than the Sun Knight, Kai.

Below was a simple line of text written in dream language.

Praise the Sun.

—Kai.

The golden sheen shone on the statue, the power of the sun seemed contained within it, his eyes shone brightly as if encouraging him not to lose heart.

Rod knew that as long as he waited for a while, the statue could be activated.

By then, as long as he summoned the Wind’s Phantom, carrying the spirit of the statue, he could once again fight alongside the Sun Knight.

Rod let out a breath, finally easing his mind, and left the dreamscape.

"Where is the King?"

He most desired to see the King.

Iyeta replied in a deep voice: "The King is fighting the Pollution of the Starry Sky in the Spirit Realm, the situation is urgent, he cannot come back for now."

Rod’s heart sank slightly, the King was their greatest reliance, if he couldn’t come back, things would be bad.

At this moment, Iyeta asked about the process in detail again, especially how the Human Demon broke the sealing and awakened.

After hearing Rod’s answer, Iyeta had some puzzlement in his expression: "Strange, why Horus?"

Rod frowned: "What do you mean?"

Iyeta gazed at him, with a heavy tone, confided his prophecy to him.

Rod was shocked: "What did you say? The King’s crisis is flaring? His crisis isn’t over?"

Iyeta replied in a deep voice: "No! The previous encounters were not the crisis."

Rod’s heart was suddenly filled with an indescribable urgency, he immediately thought of the [Eternal Dream], perhaps only the [Eternal Dream] which can alter reality, could change all of this.

And in the dreamscape, there are already over 6700 pieces of Nightmare Material, only a distance from 7500 remains.

As he was pondering how to obtain the last pieces of Nightmare Material and the heart of the Giant Dragon, a Messenger brought back an extremely terrifying message.

The Human Demon has already entered Taranor, heading towards the Royal City.

According to observers, at its current speed, it is expected to reach the outer edges of Trolian in a few days, and around it emerged many mad creatures, huge Mad Crowns overlapping one another, forming a mass, indistinguishable.

Without a doubt, the Great Disaster has already arrived.

The countdown to Trolian’s Destruction has officially begun.
