The Last King Of Darkness

The Book of Knowledge ignored him and exclaimed, "Master, did you see? This is one of the changes that come with repairing the Sun Tower Peak! Its strength has been greatly enhanced and it can now obtain more divine information."

Rod nodded, "Book, well done."

The Book of Knowledge burst into a smile and continued, "Master, the Dream Realm is about to enter the Ice Prison, and we are about to face battles in the Spirit Realm, so we must be fully prepared. The repair of the Sun Tower is of utmost importance."

The Doll said, "You also need to complete the Psychic Elevation Ceremony as soon as possible. Several of the stars have been quantified for a while, and only when you enter the Lawyer's domain can they complete the quantification."

Rod said solemnly, "Understood, once things are settled, I will proceed with the Psychic Elevation Ceremony."

Withdrawing his consciousness from the Dream Realm, the scene was already immersed in a joyful atmosphere, and humanity once again crazily flooded the screen.

Ever since he became a Fire Son and Horus ordered the Holy Church to promote him as a hero, his humanity had always been flooding the screen, only now it was faster.

Rod tried to discern if there were any people around who hadn't contributed humanity, but unfortunately, the names scrolled by too fast to distinguish.

"It's a pity, the Flower of Humanity is too demanding and can't be used as a common identification method."

Rod thought.

"Anyone who gave a Flower of Humanity definitely isn't an ancient evil thought or a doomsday believer."

Just as he thought this, two rays of golden light flashed before his eyes.

Flower of Humanity +1, from Jolevi Hullen

Flower of Humanity +1, from Ye Huo·Wind

Great!

Rod beamed with joy.

It seems these two are neither ancient evil thoughts nor doomsday believers.

"Thank you, Brother Rod!" In the warm atmosphere, Wind came up and gave him a big hug.

Liszt said discontentedly, "What about me?"

No. 7 and No. 9 also joined in the fun, "What about us?"

Wind laughed, "Thank you Little Baldy, thank you Big Beard, thank you Cyclops."

The three were dissatisfied, "Why am I not a big brother?"

Wind covered her mouth and laughed, "That's because Sir Rod likes it, he's our great savior. As long as he likes, it's not just big brother, even father, grandfather, ancestor is fine..."

Hullen timely interrupted her speech, politely thanking everyone.

"Thank you for bringing resources to the Royal City, humanity will be proud of you!"

Archbishop Horus nodded lightly, "Just with these materials, you deserve a hundred badges."

Great Scholar Amides smiled, "The Great Book Library will record your journey in detail, this merit Troli will remember."

Rod and Liszt exchanged a glance, knowing this was just a small fraction of their harvest.

What if they revealed the full extent?

Suddenly, all four of them felt a sense of anticipation.

Subsequently, the logistical personnel left in a rush, and Archbishop Horus led everyone to the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.

Beneath the golden Holy Fire, the King opened his eyes, looking a bit fatigued.

Since the Holy Fire's intensity skyrocketed, the original fragile balance was broken, causing great disturbance to the inner and outer Spirit Realms, with powerful Spirit Realm monsters launching constant attacks, including those from the high-level Spirit Realm.

The King engaged in Spirit Realm battles even more frequently to ensure the firelight projected by the Holy Fire in the Spirit Realm wasn't polluted.

But upon seeing Rod, the King's fatigue vanished instantly, replaced by a smile.

"Little Rod, glad to see you've returned from a deep and dark journey, Horus told me you had a crown-level significant acquisition."

Rod nodded, "Our harvest is enormous, far beyond our expectations."

The King looked at him with interest, "That's indeed good news."

Rod was not good at this kind of formal reporting, so Liszt stepped forward and began to detail the journey.

He spoke very thoroughly, explaining each event's cause and effect clearly, logically, and systematically, evidently a battle-hardened veteran.

At some point, the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground became exceptionally quiet, leaving only the sound of the Holy Fire burning brightly.

Everyone held their breath, listening carefully to every word Liszt said, afraid of missing any detail.

When they heard that they discovered a Divine City, every pair of eyes lit up with excitement.

When they heard they encountered a Great Demon God in the Divine Tower, there were continuous gasps.

When they heard Rod killed the Great Demon God in the Black Fog environment, enthusiastic applause broke out.

But after they entered the pyramid's interior, no one spoke.

Only after Liszt finished speaking did Archbishop Horus ask, "So, you brought back the Star Marrow Altar, which is two hundred yards tall and weighs millions of tons?"

The breathing in the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground became noticeably heavier, and everyone perked up their ears.

Liszt corrected, "It was loaded into Sir Rod's storage barrel."

Even Horus, with his withered face, couldn't suppress a shocked expression, "Rod, is your storage barrel this big?"

At this moment, Rod really wanted to punch Horus's face ajar and kick Liszt flying, can you use accurate terms? Can't you say storage space?

What storage barrel, you're the storage barrel, your whole family is!

Rod took a deep breath, calmed himself, and replied, "In my space."

The next moment, cheers erupted like a storm.

Whether Fire Priests, Scholars, even Horus and Amides, prestigious figures, shouted in celebration.

Star Marrow is a rare spiritual material, its greatest use is not for crafting weapons, equipment, or items, but for the Star Ritual.

From a spiritual perspective, Star Marrow belongs to star creations, containing the spirit of stars, and it's one of the most important materials in star rituals.

Star Rituals are one of the crucial soul ceremonies, widely used for Fire Spark ignition, enhancement, control, characteristic elevation, and source quantification.

Rod had never encountered such a matter, so he had never used a star ritual.

But in the Royal City, nearly every high-rank combatant had experienced a star ritual.

With so much Star Marrow, the Royal City's combat power would greatly increase.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

Rod spoke calmly.

"I believe it might have even greater uses."

Horus frowned, "What are you suggesting? Are you referring to that so-called Absolute Sanctuary? This sounds like something from the survivor cult."

Rod slightly shook his head, briefly explaining the Spirit's Curtain, Black Fog Wall, and Adam Yareel's 'Black Fog Great Wall' concept.

Everyone felt incredulous, apparently preferring direct use of Star Marrow.

Although the strength of the Star Marrow Altar was high, being in the Royal City, there will always be ways to dismantle it.

Only the three Great Scholars and the King looked at him with keen interest.

Horus asked in a heavy tone, "Rod, what's the point? The remaining bits and pieces can't prove anything, perhaps Adam Yareel was already seriously corrupted and nearly insane at that time."

This question had been on Rod's mind throughout the journey, and after discussing with the Book of Knowledge and the Doll, he suddenly had a new train of thought, leading to a new idea.

This idea was very bold, so he wanted to speak it out for everyone to hear.

Especially the King.
