The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1399 - 685: Starlight_3

Not far away, the Book of Knowledge anxiously shouted, "Master, what happened?"

Rod exhaled and succinctly told it everything in his memories, then asked the question in his heart.

"Master, this is not a mere memory or illusion realm. You can understand it as another spacetime, a special spacetime, at an infinitely distant position, but you are still within the Three Realms. The Divinity required to activate the Star Tower exists specifically for this, otherwise, we wouldn’t have the 12 clock hour restriction."

Rod said unhappily, "Then I awakened it in an instant, but didn’t see it return to me."

"Um, that..." the Book of Knowledge was momentarily at a loss for words.

Rod didn’t continue to question further. With a thought, the "Time Bell" lifted the pause, and with a light touch on its surface, he once again returned to that strange memory.

At the moment the battle began, he directly used [Sin’s Touch] on the giant monster.

Countless tentacles appeared on the monster, constantly tearing at its Spiritual Energy and attacking its soul.

The giant monster resisted the spiritual attacks from the tentacles but couldn’t immunize against the destruction of its defenses.

At the same time, Rod made even closer contact with it, allowing the [Dark Devourer’s] [Destroying Darkness] to continuously damage its soul.

Indeed, this move was effective.

Although Rod only destroyed a bit of the defense, the enhancement for those Monarchs was immediate.

Their self-destruction intensified the assault on the giant monster, ultimately blasting it off the giant tower.

It fell rapidly like a weight, vanishing in the blink of an eye, and Rod immediately realized there was some Gravity restriction applied to it.

No wonder it couldn’t fly.

However, he didn’t seem to have passed the test because of this.

The giant tower was still falling, the gale still howling. Rod peeked downward, mist heavily covered beneath the tower, its height unknown.

Turning back, only one person was left on the giant tower. She was wearing a deep blue robe, kneeling on the ground, crying.

Is this "Sorris"?

Rod approached for a closer look. She appeared to be an ordinary woman, plain-looking, with Spiritual Energy fluctuations just over level 15, not as strong as his own.

Why did this group of Monarchs call her the "last hope?"

Does she have something special?

While pondering, she suddenly stood up, wiped her tears, stepped back, and came to a disc.

Upon her arrival, the complex hollow sphere on the disc began to rotate.

"Everyone died for me."

She murmured.

"I can’t let them be disappointed."

She raised her hand, and the sphere began to spin.

At this moment, Rod felt the power of the stars.

Countless starlights lit up in the gray sky, but darkness also spread amidst the starlight, a vast power coming toward him.

"The starry sky has been polluted."

She murmured.

"The cage of imprisonment has opened, Amidala is devouring the starry sky."

"I can’t let this happen."

The sphere began to counter-rotate, her soul ascended, entering the starlight.

"Sorry, everyone."

She murmured.

"I can’t rebuild the giant tower."

"I hope its remains can help humanity in the future."

Countless lights flew toward the starry sky, carrying her soul, together flying to a distant place.

As the lights fell, the sphere had already become an empty shell.

Boom!

The giant tower crashed to the ground, Rod’s vision went black, everything disappeared.

Is it over?

Did I fail?

The next second, a faint light appeared, and a gentle voice said:

"No, you succeeded."

In the endless darkness, a ball of starlight emerged, gently pulsating, as if a soul resided within.

"So many, I’ve felt countless sacrifices from your soul, countless from others, and yours."

"Ha, how many years has it been, a thousand, ten thousand, a hundred thousand, I’ve finally met you."

Rod was surprised: "Who are you?"

"A pitiful soul imprisoned in the starlight, but now, I am no longer pitiful."

"My mission is complete."

It spoke with an incredibly gentle voice, the sound laden with heavy longing.

"I’ve come, Sedes, Bao, Sen, everyone has waited long, Sorris has arrived..."

Its voice gradually faded, the starlight dimmed.

When Rod opened his eyes, he was back on the tower.

The blue starlight submerged the dream realm, making everything tranquil and calm.

In front of him, deep blue text fell like a waterfall.

[Star Shuttle]

[State: Primordial]

[Position: Sea of Source]

[Star Energy: Star Dust Radiance]

[Star Soul: Superstar Flash]

[Strength: 60 million]

[Source: 6]

[Description: The dream of a rapidly destroying world,

Imprisoned starlight,

Only the longing proves life]

—

[Star Dust Radiance]: Coalesce the shining starlight into star dust or star lines, forming Star Light Armor, Star Light Weapons, Star Light Shuttle.

[Superstar Flash]: The star light flashes; at the moment, everything perishes.

Note: Requires an extremely large consumption of Spiritual Energy.

—

Rod stared blankly at everything before him.

Only after a long time did he react; he had already awakened the star soul of the [Star Shuttle].

But how did I awaken it?

What happened at the last moment?

What did it mean when it spoke?

Countless questions echoed in his mind, leaving Rod unable to make sense of them.

Yet the Book of Knowledge and the doll were exuberant.

"Master, another star has returned to its position, your Soul Strength has increased quite a lot again; continuing like this, you will soon reach 16 levels of Spiritual Energy, becoming a Strong Monarch Level power."

The doll’s tone carried uncontainable joy: "Even on the oldest battlefields, this is a mighty power, the true master of the dream realm is about to return, humanity will again feel your mighty power; when you can completely recount everything of the dream realm, that’s the moment we launch our charge against the Black Fog."

The book of Knowledge added: "Of course, the precondition is that you must awaken one Great Star; only then can your soul acquire Strong Sources, and your Spiritual Energy achieve a fundamental enhancement."

The difference between Strong Spiritual Energy and regular Spiritual Energy is much greater than the difference between Spiritual Energy and Weak Spiritual Energy.

Rod cannot be considered to have formal Monarch Level power until he masters Strong Sources.

But that day, is already very near.
