The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1537 - 730: Piercing Through

The anger in Arc’s voice was unmistakable.

"Viheler, you’re next."

"As for you, Son of Destruction from the prophecy, you’d better think carefully about your position. You’re up against the greatest power in this world, and Trolian is a doomed ship."

Mephit didn’t respond, merely raising his wrist.

Invisible ripples instantly arrived, once again twisting Horus’s distorted spirit. The powerful force of "spirit control" acted simultaneously on two individuals.

Rod shouted, "Dark Moon Princess, release!"

The Dark Moon Princess waved her hand, and the dark red moonlight dissipated from Horus. White light exploded from his body, transforming into countless sharp blades piercing into the crowd of monsters.

Countless flesh-and-blood monsters were impaled, clearing a large swath in the tide of blood.

Mephit turned around and raised his hand once again.

In the next moment, Peibela’s voice rang out with delight: "Xingge, you’ve recovered?"

Raging flames shot out from the city walls. Xingge leaped out from within Great Dragon City, flames burning on her body, crashing like a meteor into the tide of blood to commence battle.

Immediately following, Peibela returned to the battlefield, and Olivia took Xingge’s place defending the Guardian Fire Sacrificial Ground.

Within mere seconds, the five Monarchs who had left the battlefield were back.

The front line stabilized at once.

Although Mephit had not spoken a word, her actions were the best reply.

"Is Mephit actually this strong?"

Rod felt both delighted and somewhat astonished in his heart.

"Before, she could only control Horus, but at that time, Horus wasn’t yet a Commander."

The Book of Knowledge said, "Perhaps it was Arc who weakened their resistance of will. This is the power of the Supreme Will... It can find the flaw in your spirit, thereby altering your spirit, infusing your soul with vast amounts of hatred, venom, anger and other negative emotions, transforming you into an existence similar to Ancient Evil Thought. Maybe this is how it creates Ancient Evil Thought."

Asa said gravely, "Correct, worthy of you, King of Knowledge, to see through the truth so quickly. This is the birth of Evil Thought. The only difference is that each element comprising our souls is soaked with this malevolent thought of hatred, while these humans remain normal. As long as the influence is interrupted, they can recover."

Rod felt a sense of relief, then suddenly thought of something and asked, "Why is Mephit able to withstand the Supreme Will’s power? Is she truly this strong?"

The Book of Knowledge explained, "No, Mephit’s mind control capability is very special, different from the Supreme Will. In fact, the Supreme Will hasn’t controlled their spirit, it just infused massive hatred into them, letting hatred engulf them, and they autonomously betray humanity. Essentially, they still act according to their altered hatred-filled will."

"Mephit, on the other hand, forcefully distorts the spirit directly, controlling your behavior. The Supreme Will’s actions weakened the Monarch’s will, making Mephit’s control easier. It’s not that Mephit is very strong, but her brutal control capability happens to counter this method."

At this moment, Rod felt like a great weight had lifted from his heart. His call to Mephit earlier was just an instinctive reaction; if Mephit couldn’t change the tide, he was prepared to take the risk of using the "Eye of Divine" to eliminate the influence of the Supreme Will.

However, the "Eye of Divine" would burden the spirit, which he planned to save for the God of Contaminated Blood. He had thought of a plan, perhaps able to defeat the Blood God in one strike.

But the method carried some risk, and he dared not act rashly, for his other trump card, "Nonexistent Loop," could only be used once.

The Book of Knowledge told him that the God of Contaminated Blood is a complex composite entity, with its soul essence at the deepest part of its flesh. Using it rashly might not inflict a fatal blow.

This strike must utterly defeat it, leaving no second chance.

Therefore, caution is paramount.

As the battle raged on, the endless blood tide had suffered some loss, noticeably weakening the Blood God’s spiritual energy compared to before.

The additional spiritual energy provided by its Divine Country had dropped by at least one-third, and the power of the blood radiance diminished to some extent.

This change Rod could clearly perceive during his confrontation with the Blood Tentacles. Were it not for the Monarch also suffering considerable damage, they would have been in an advantageous position now.

At such a critical moment, the battlefield below must not be lost, as it concerns not only the strength of the Blood God but also the safety of the Guardian Fire Sacrificial Ground.

If the front line crumbles, Great Dragon City falls, and the Guardian Fire Sacrificial Ground is destroyed, the King’s Fire Projection will dissipate accordingly.

Without the King, Rod alone cannot withstand the God of Contaminated Blood as its instinct accelerates reinforcement, leaving little of its original will.

At this time, Arc’s move is indeed a deadly blow. If employed earlier, Trolian might have been obliterated already.

But Asa also informed him, "The Divine Envoy of the Supreme Will only recently awakened. If my guess is correct, it was the Ancient Evil Ahk who achieved it, borrowing the power of the Supreme Will’s Divine Envoy. The Dark Emblem is necessary for this; it is why he was willing to delay the Blood God’s invasion, certainly to obtain the Dark Emblem and the Blood God’s Divine Artifact, the Black Blood Eye."
