The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1571 - 744: Countermeasures (Part 3)
Rod frowned and said, "Book, why does your current intuition seem almost like a prophet’s? Even the prophecy from the Book of the Future isn’t as accurate as yours, right?"
The Book of Knowledge waved its pages angrily, saying, "Master, this is inspiration related to knowledge, not some nebulous prophecy. It’s based on logic; it’s just that my knowledge characteristic allows me to skip the logic and directly obtain the result... My soul is nearly complete now, recovering well, and such inspiration is frequent!"
Rod laughed and said, "Don’t be angry, Book, I was just joking."
After a pause, he said seriously, "Book, no matter how much Colorful Dreams it takes, I must save the King. You understand his significance to Trolian and humanity better than I do, and there might even be quite a bit of divinity involved."
The Book of Knowledge flipped its pages but said nothing.
Indeed, the master’s words were so true that there was no room for rebuttal.
Rod gently patted the book’s spine, saying, "Book, sometimes those who don’t worry about gains and losses end up gaining more... By the way, how are the Book of the Future and the puppet recovering?"
The Book of Knowledge replied sullenly, "The Book of the Future is recovering quickly. I’ve provided plenty of Soul Flowers and Spiritual Flowers. As long as it has food, it’s happy and absorbs souls like a breeze. It might awaken in a few days. As for the puppet, its injuries are too severe. Besides a large amount of Soul Flowers and Spiritual Flowers, it also needs lots and lots of Primordial Soil."
Rod nodded, understanding that Primordial Soil is a common Source Material representing the earth, often used as a core substance in artificial creations.
There’s quite a bit of it in the Dream Realm, and acquiring more isn’t difficult.
"How many days until the Dream Realm enters a new Spirit Realm area?"
The Book of Knowledge pondered and said, "We are at the junction of the Demon Wilderness, Shadow Evil World, Nest of Destruction, Castle of Dead Souls, and Long Tower, a rare multi-border intersection. I recently figured out its characteristics. Master, you may choose any area, but I suggest the Long Tower."
Rod was surprised: "Why?"
"The high-level Spirit Realm area named Long Tower is relatively conservative and safe. I don’t want us to encounter such danger again before you become the True King."
The Book of Knowledge referred to the terrifying entities in the Demon Wilderness, which still gave Rod chills at the thought.
"I understand; let’s go with Long Tower then."
Rod waved his hand, decisively making his decision.
"The name itself sounds safe. Book, I’ve suddenly noticed that the names of areas in the high-level Spirit Realm are quite unique."
The Book of Knowledge jumped into the House of God, maneuvering the Dream Realm’s transformation, and casually replied, "Of course. Each area corresponds to different characteristics. If we can purify and control all areas, we’ll hold the world’s core, and then we can thoroughly purify the Black Fog."
Rod nodded and asked again, "Book, what do you think of the King’s crisis?"
The Book of Knowledge pondered for a moment before replying, "Master, do you remember what Saint Reel’s Pope said? At that time, he wanted you to warn the King to be wary of Human Demons."
"Human Demons, huh..."
Rod fell into deep thought. He recalled seeing from the soul of the Mysterious Shadow that Human Demons are the humanity portion severed by the Mysterious Ancestor, an amalgamation of endless corrupted humanity. It produces Mysterious Shadows, eroding the soul on a willful level.
But given the King’s stature, he would not fear any willful intrusion.
Moreover, with the Dream Realm in existence...
Rod pondered for a moment, just about to ask a new question when Asa’s voice suddenly rang out in the Dream Realm.
"Master, I’m awake. I digested some of the Evil Thoughts and gained many of their memories. One particular memory is extremely important, and I wish to tell you immediately."
Rod looked at Asa in surprise: "What memory?"
"It’s about the Source Heavenly God’s Throne."
With a gentle flick of his finger, Asa enveloped Rod in a dense, dim yellow fog.
Rod’s vision went dark, but soon faintly lit up again. Looking around, he saw deep darkness all around, with only a faintly visible giant stele.
Isn’t this the Evil Thought Stele that records the life of all humanity?
Rod gazed upward, and indeed, at the top of the stele, he saw the name of the Source Heavenly God Throne.
A strange voice whispered in his ear.
"The Source Heavenly God’s Throne, the root of miracles, the greatest threat to the master, must be thoroughly eradicated. It will bring us endless merit, making us the King of Evil Thoughts, divine envoys of the master."
"The Source Heavenly God Throne uses fire as its driving force. The stronger the fire, the stronger the Source Heavenly God Throne. It’s like a furnace: the more intense the fire, the more powerful the Source Breath that bursts forth, turning the wheels of probability, turning all impossibilities into possibilities. Therefore, the Source Heavenly God Throne can only appear on the Fire Chosen Ones; focus on examining spirits with the Eternal Burning Fire Attribute."
Rod suddenly realized this was the voice of the Evil Thought!
Judging by the content, it was clearly a leader-level figure.
But he’d heard Asa and Ake’s voices, so could this be the Evil Thought Alan?
Unfortunately, this memory had no human form, only voices and the stele.
When the voice ended, the scene in front of him also dissipated.
Asa said, "Master, this memory uncovers the secrets of the Source Heavenly God’s Throne. By understanding its foundation, we can quickly empower its possessor. Master, this will surely bring you more divinity, and soon you’ll be able to ignite the Sacrifice!"
In that moment, Rod’s heart was ecstatic. This memory was crucial, and Asa had rendered a great service.
"Well done, Asa. If there are any more memories like this, tell me immediately."
Asa responded joyfully, "Of course, my master. Your most loyal servant is always at your service. Your great expectations are my direction."
Luckily, his joy was strong enough that Asa’s words didn’t disgust Rod.
"It seems this Holy Fire Seed is very important to the King."
Rod clenched his fist, his mind swirling with thoughts.
"If we can obtain this Holy Fire Seed, not only can it heal the King, but it can also elevate him to a higher level."
"Moreover, stronger Holy Fire holds extraordinary significance for all of humanity. We will have more newcomers passing the Fire Trial, enhancing the strength of champions and everything related to fire will be strengthened."
"However, attacking the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground in Saint Reel Royal City at this time is too dangerous... a slight mistake could ruin everything. What should we do?"
Just as Rod was lost in complicated thoughts, the Book of Knowledge suddenly spoke.
"Master, you could first go and take a look."
