The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1435 - 695: Aid from Destiny (Part 4)

After saying that, it eagerly jumped back to the bookshelf, beginning a new round of digestion.

"Master."

The Book of Knowledge suddenly spoke.

"I think we need to pick up the pace; it’s alright even if we take some risks."

"I will slightly adjust the direction of the Dream Realm, flying towards the swarm of Demons, using the power of the Dream Realm to hunt Demons, to restore Spiritual Energy for the master, and quickly reinvest in the construction and expansion of Trolian."

Rod nodded and glanced at the Star Tower, which was still covered with cracks and hadn’t changed much.

"Book, how much longer until the Star Tower is repaired?"

The Book of Knowledge looked troubled: "The Star Tower is too severely damaged; the repair is estimated to require over 500 Soul Flowers and at least three pieces of Primordial Soil."

Rod frowned slightly, as Primordial Soil is the Source Material of "Earth," just like Primordial Water and Primordial Qi, it is the most abundant Source Material. In the Ancient Epoch and Fire Epoch, they were commonly used as the core for large buildings and artificial constructions. By today’s Dark Epoch, it’s almost nonexistent outside and can only be found in ruins, especially from the Ancient Epoch.

For Rod now, obtaining three pieces of Primordial Soil is not very difficult, but it is indeed somewhat troublesome.

"Alright, no matter what, repair it as soon as possible."

The Book of Knowledge nodded: "Understood, Master."

It flapped its pages, ran back to the House of God, adjusted the direction of the Dream Realm, and then returned to the front of the Star Tower, resuming the repair work.

Rod lay back in the chair of the Dream Realm; he needed to hurry and restore some Spiritual Energy.

But upon closing his eyes, he could not fall asleep.

Heigao’er’s words echoed back and forth in his soul, feeling as if a heavy stone pressed on his heart, making him unable to breathe.

Rod decided not to sleep, focusing his mind on pondering his words.

With this thought, his mind began to operate at high speed; Rod had never felt his thoughts so clear.

In this way, although Heigao’er’s words contained much information, when summed up, what he should do boils down to just a few points.

First, find more partners, help them grow, one person can’t do it alone; countless people must unite together.

Second, multiple growth paths are necessary to break through something known as "Spiritual Restriction," so more True Kings can appear.

Third, resources, especially his inheritance, ten Light Stones, and a portion of Divinity, seize them quickly.

Fourth, quickly gather fragments of the Eternal Square, prepare to ignite the Giant Star.

Fifth, [Time Wander] can summon the Starry Queen, a powerful assistant.

Sixth, be cautious, don’t become arrogant from victory.

Understanding these, tranquility settled in Rod’s heart, and he had preliminary thoughts about his next steps.

——

The next morning, Rod found Molly.

As the actual manager of the Black Battle Group, she had been very busy recently, but the group had expanded to two hundred people as a result.

These two hundred people were carefully selected by her, most meeting Rod’s criteria.

With adequate resource supply, their growth was rapid, and it wouldn’t take long before they could enter the battlefield.

However, the first thing Rod said upon meeting her was to expand the number to a thousand people.

Molly’s delicate face showed no emotion; she only had one option in response to Rod’s special orders: unconditional obedience.

"Master, are there new standards?"

Rod spoke deeply: "Yes, from now on, we only recruit recent graduates from Jinworth Academy, and every recruit will be the one with the poorest aptitude, those with no hope of promotion. They will be separated from the previous group, forming a new battalion."

Molly did not raise any questions; Rod’s orders were everything.

For her, this man who showed her hope in the Starry Sky was beyond reproach.

"Any new requirements?"

"Only one: make them train like their lives depend on it. All training materials and resources will be provided by me."

Molly lifted her exquisite gold silk glasses and replied in an indisputable tone: "Understood."

Afterward, Rod went straight to the logistics resource department.

He began to understand the resources currently lacking in Trolian, instantly supplementing them from his dream as needed.

The logistics chief Hullen’s eyes were wide, staring fiercely at Rod’s sleeve; if it moved, he would inevitably bring forth the missing resources.

Another logistics chief, Feng, initially stayed by Rod’s side, but later simply knelt in front of Rod. Whenever his sleeve moved, his two hands would greet it.

The entire logistics resource department was set into motion, causing quite a stir until dusk.

Rod quickly left the Royal City and headed to the front lines, activating the Teleportation Gate to transport the light of Holy Fire to the battlefield.

He did not produce fire; he was merely a transporter of fire.

No monster could withstand such transportation, and they all burned to ashes in the flames.

Afterwards, amidst the cheers, Rod returned to the Royal City, casually excavating a few ruins along the way, and thus the day passed.

However, his Spiritual Energy was recovering very slowly in this manner.

Two days had passed, roughly only restoring less than one-tenth.

The Book of Knowledge told him this was because his total Spiritual Energy had greatly increased, and the restoration of strong Spiritual Energy is slower than that of weak Spiritual Energy. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Fortunately, that night, the Dream Bubble encountered a large swarm of Demons.

Rod was awoken from deep sleep, and with the fury of being awakened, he activated the Sun Tower and launched a frenzy of bombardment.

The three major Ghost Kings charged at the front, Asa blocked their sight from behind, the puppet stood by Asa with the Shield of Darkness. Under such a three-dimensional assault, even entire swarms of Demons couldn’t threaten the Dream Realm and were quickly slaughtered completely.

Sacrificing ten Demons can condense into one piece of Spirit Material, the top-tier Spiritual Power Recovery Potion, which can instantly restore between 100 to 200 tracks of total Spiritual Energy.

Rod had taken it once before, quickly refilling his depleted Spiritual Energy. Some remained afterward and was gradually used up in battle.

This time, they slaughtered approximately two thousand Demons, and after sacrificing them all, they condensed 205 Spirit Materials, 205 Soul Flowers, 205 Spiritual Flowers, and a large quantity of Soul Residue and Soul Trait Blocks.

But this bountiful harvest also caused considerable disturbances throughout the Demon Wilderness, as it became radiant, and dozens of powerful presences emanated from the depths of the Spirit Realm.

"They are the Old Dominators, King Level Monsters of the Fallen, along with some other entities unknown to me."

The Book of Knowledge exclaimed urgently.

"Master, we need to leave here quickly; if we get entangled, we will face the siege of the entire Demon Wilderness."

Rod knew its words were not alarmist; if a powerful presence entangled the Dream Realm, the battle would quickly escalate, attracting more enhanced entities, ultimately startling the entire frightening region.

He immediately invested all the Dream Realm’s Source Energy into the Source Energy Propulsion Ring. Under Rod’s precise control, they ultimately managed to escape the crisis.

But it came at quite a cost; the three major Ghost Kings sustained varying degrees of injury, Asa overexerted himself and needed rest, and the outer defenses of the Dream Realm were significantly damaged and required repairs.

Most importantly, somehow the invasion time of the Black Fog Demon suddenly shortened, and the countdown on the Obelisk’s premonition face turned to ten days.

The Book of Knowledge said it might not necessarily be the battle in the Demon Wilderness; perhaps it was due to the previous summoning of Heigao’er’s Phantom, or both might be the case.

But regardless, it was all worthwhile.

The invasion of the Black Fog Demon isn’t frightening; Rod’s methods are numerous, and he is well-prepared.

As soon as it arrives, he dares to call the King over right there.

Rod has tried it; a Teleportation Gate cannot be opened within the Dream Realm, but can be outside.

So when the time comes, Rod will fight to keep the Black Fog Demon outside the Dream Realm, allowing him to fight alongside the King, plus the three major Ghost Kings, Asa, the fully-powered puppet, and the Sun Tower, they can definitely kill the Black Fog Demon.

To his delight, the Book of the Future had once again finished digesting the Destiny Energy, and bounced off the bookshelf.

"Master!"

It shouted.

"Your strongest assistant has arrived!"
