MTL - The Last King of Darkness-Chapter 5 soul devour
The weeping sister nun was mercilessly driven out.
The three-meter-wide aunt went into battle in person.
Rhode's people are about to crack.
The nun's fingers were thicker than his arms, and his strength exceeded 100,000 tons of hydraulic press. Rhode felt as if 10,000 cows were galloping on his back, and 40,000 iron hooves were trampling his soul.
She ravaged and nag at the same time.
"...These dead girls are really worrying. They are unwilling to abide by any ban. If they don't smoke them, my medical center will be delisted in a few days..."
Rhode couldn't believe it: "Aren't you a regular institution? Didn't I come here to treat my memory loss?"
"We are of course a formal institution."
Aunt Uther's hand was two points heavier, Rhode felt that his waist was about to break, and his throat let out an overwhelmed moan for the bones.
"The first-level medical center of the Holy Church, the homepage of the Healing Order's medical list, there is no more formal institution than us. All of our healing nuns are excellent graduates of Jinworth, and both nursing and healing courses are full marks... and I , Uther of Red Rose Street, is a legend of Kingworth College, the only healer who also got full marks in combat class!"
Rhode's mouth crooked.
"Then why don't you fight?"
Aunt Uther's tone was a little surprised: "I'm a logistics staff, and of course the combat is in charge of the combat staff, how can I overstep my duty? Isn't that all messed up? Oh... Are you worried that I'm not professional enough? Haha, little guy, don't worry Well, no one is better at treating amnesia than I am."
This is the most difficult place for Rhodes to understand.
"Is your remedy a massage?"
Aunt Uther smiled and said, "Of course not, this is just to contact your spirit and let your spirit enter a deep state of tranquility. The real healing has not yet begun."
Rhode's heart suddenly moved.
Could this be the reason why he entered that strange world just now?
"So, is that the spiritual world in my dream?"
"That stone tablet caused my headaches? The husky in my head is actually the nigger?"
Thinking of the series of bizarre encounters, Rhodes had a not-so-good feeling.
Does this dream world have anything to do with the transfer team?
Am I really the murderer?
No no, not necessarily.
I'm thinking on the bright side, maybe I can find some clues in the dream world.
That's right, I still remember those few words I don't know, and I can ask Auntie later.
While thinking about it, I heard Aunt Uther continue to say:
"Young man, you are very lucky. The first-level medical center is not something ordinary people can come to. You have to thank Mr. Vermeer for this. If it wasn't for him, you would not have come to me."
Rhodes asked, "Mr. Vermeer...is that the white wolf?"
"Yeah, why don't you know him... oh, you've lost your memory, poor little guy."
Aunt Uther looked at him lovingly.
"I promise you, in the name of Uther, that I will cure you so that you can remember exactly how old you were when you peeed your pants."
Rhodes was a little embarrassed: "Thank you, you are really good people, I thought you were an informal institution..."
Aunt Uther smiled and said, "The Healing Order not only treats the spiritual body and body, but also serves as a spiritual doctor, so the nuns are very easy to get along with, and a clean, white and tender little brother like you belongs to them. My favorite, it is inevitable that I will take advantage of my position to act a little too much... But don't worry, as long as I am here for one day, your chastity will not fall into their clutches. "
Please don't meddle in your own business and let them come... Rhode complained in his heart, feeling that the image of this kingdom was a little fuzzy in his mind.
He originally thought it was a strict, closed, ignorant society similar to the feudal dynasty or the Middle Ages, but he didn't expect it to be much more enlightened than he imagined. Aunt Uther's conversation was humorous and open, and there was no such ignorance at all. Paranoid.
Although she is only an individual, it can be seen from a glimpse of the leopard.
Is this really a human group that has survived in this harsh doomsday environment?
Rhodes was slightly puzzled, but he didn't care too much. As long as he could restore his memory, maybe he would be able to bid farewell to this place soon.
After an unknown time, the **** massage finally ended, and Aunt Uther smiled and said, "Okay, now your spirit has entered a state of deep tranquility, you must feel very comfortable, and it is suitable for my next spiritual return ceremony."
Rhode's whole body was in pain, and he weakly responded.
Aunt Uther stood up and put her broad palms over the back of his head.
Accompanied by a strange wind chime, she recited.
"The wandering spirit, please return from the spiritual world."
"Like a baby clinging to its mother, like a ghost returning to the cemetery!"
"This is your origin!"
A feeling of surprise swept through Rhodes' body, like stepping into a shady room in a hot summer, and the feeling of draughts through his body from his trousers.
But it quickly disappeared, and Aunt Uther's surprised voice came from overhead.
"Why did it fail?"
Rhode's heart sank, and he tried to recall it, but there really was no new information in his memory.
Aunt Uther was silent for a moment, then tried again, but still without success.
"It's really weird..."
She fell into a long silence, and Rhode hesitated for a long time before carefully saying: "This, maybe I haven't completely relaxed, should I change nuns..."
Aunt Uther raised her eyes and smiled gently: "Little guy, it has nothing to do with you, the appearance of the summoning spirit means that there is no problem with the previous work, your situation is very complicated, and there are difficulties that I didn't expect, um... I You have to go to the big library, which may take a while, but don’t worry, what I said doesn’t count.”
But Rhodes is not confident. According to Murphy's Law, once things are unfavorable, they will always develop in a worse direction.
To make matters worse, the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for him. After three days, he will have to face the questioning of the Internal Affairs Tribunal, and as the investigation progresses, he will have to explain the problem to the Tribunal.
The crisis will only get bigger.
"No, I can't sit still, I have to think of other ways."
Thinking of this, Rhode hurriedly said, "Big Sister Uther, can I ask you to do me a favor?"
Aunt Uther smiled and said, "Tell me, little guy, for your honesty, I will agree."
Rhode said softly: "I want you to chat with me, you know, I have amnesia, I can't remember anything, my parents, family, friends, everything I am familiar with has disappeared, I am illiterate, I have nothing I don’t understand, I don’t have money, this city is a strange city to me, but I have to live alone here, I am very lonely, it seems that I am the only one left in this world, so I want to be with you Let’s chat, maybe we can have one more friend, maybe we can bring back everything that is familiar.”
His tone was sincere and full of affection, and in line with his young and helpless image, Aunt Uther's eyes suddenly became wet.
"What a poor little fellow, what can I not answer such a request?"
Rhodes's acting skills are 120% effective, and amnesia is an excellent excuse, no matter what questions he can ask without hindrance.
And Aunt Uther was even more approachable than expected, and she was very talkative. Rhodes easily extracted a lot of information from her mouth, and even asked the words he saw in the dream calmly.
But unfortunately, Aunt Uther did not know this kind of writing.
"It's not Neraka, it's not Sasolania, it looks a bit like Mazda, but there's no phonetic transcription... Seems to be a very old language, maybe you can find someone who knows it at Kingworth College ."
Rhodes was about to ask what Jinworth College was when he saw Aunt Uther jumped up like her **** was on fire.
"How…"
Before a word could be said, Aunt Uther grabbed his hand violently.
"Can!"
Her fat face bloomed like a king flower.
"you can!"
Rhodes asked dumbly, "What can I do?"
But Aunt Uther didn't answer, she dragged him to knock the door open and rushed out of Uther Medical Center.
Outside the medical center is an empty street. The blue slate is filled with damp water mist and exudes a strange smell. The street is lined with single-family buildings made of bluestone, and there is a lamp hanging in front of each building. lamp.
The dim light dispels the darkness, but if you look up, you can see a pervasive black mist covering the city.
Rhodes shivered slightly, this is the royal city, the royal city with the strongest holy flame still looks so depressed.
How would you feel if you left the royal city and were surrounded by black mist all day long?
Rhodes recalled what he saw when he was in the corpse pile, and suddenly understood what Aunt Uther meant by saying that they also have the duties of a psychiatrist.
People who have been fighting in this environment for a long time must be very depressed.
Rhode's heart was slightly gloomy, trying not to expand his imagination.
He glanced left and right, the street was quiet and there was no one there, but in this midnight-like environment, it didn't seem abrupt.
"Oops, it's already a quarter of noon, I don't know if it's too late."
Aunt Uther glanced at the pocket watch and dragged Rhodes to run.
The wind was blowing, and Rhode finally took a look at the gap and shouted, "Where are we going?"
"Go to the Royal City Grand Sacrificial Field. There are still two hours left in this year's Trial of Fire. The Holy Grail of Fire should not be extinguished. Maybe you can catch up."
"What?" Rhodes was stunned.
The aunt explained quickly.
"Little guy, I tested it just now. Your soul is strong and strong. The waveform is obvious, the ripples are clear, and the spiritual pressure is flashing. Maybe you can pass the trial of fire, get the blessing of fire, and light the fire."
"In this case, you will enter Jinworth Academy and become a glorious fire-bearer student. There are countless companions in the academy, including teachers, counselors, and an immortal dean. You will not be alone, and you will not need to Worry about knowing nothing, they will teach you everything, and you don't have to worry about making a living. Each student has a weekly salary of at least 42 silvers, and personal supplies worth 90 silvers. If you are good enough, There are also various scholarships and distribution materials.”
"It's your best bet."
Rhodes was a little confused and shouted, "What does Kingworth College do?"
At this time, the benefits of amnesia came out again, and the aunt explained it to him in great detail.
"Only when the fire ignites our soul, we have the strength to guard our homeland and fight the monsters in the dark. The person who ignites the fire of the soul is called the fire-wielder, which means the person who can hold the power of fire."
"And Jinworth Academy is the academy that cultivates and trains those who hold fire. It is one of the most important pillars of the king's city, and it is all our hope for the future."
"Once you become a student, you will get the most abundant resources, the best treatment, the most meticulous protection, and the most valued status, because you are the 'tinder' and the future, the kingdom exists because of you, the last human kingdom It continues because of you."
Rhodes was stunned, but when he heard the last sentence, he asked incredulously, "Finally? Is there anyone but us?"
The aunt's voice was a little low: "I think it is like this, the world of UU reading www.uukanshu.com has long been shrouded in darkness, the black mist that erodes everything permeates every part of it, human beings have long since perished, and countless powerful kingdoms have been reduced to The lair of dark monsters, we are the only survivors, we have been listening to the world for a long time, but in this dark desert there is no sound that can be understood except meaningless noises, and some scholars still believe that in the depths of darkness, there must be There is also a royal city like us. I am pessimistic about it.”
Rhode's heart sank all of a sudden. He was still planning to run away with a bag and live with another human force once the incident happened and he couldn't find a way to go home.
But now, things have changed a lot, and everything in the future has to be re-planned.
Rhode's thoughts turned sharply, and he asked the most important question in this last minute.
"Is there any untouchable taboo in Wangcheng and Kingworth College?"
The aunt thought for a moment and replied.
"All religions, rituals, prayers, and services other than those of the Holy Church are not allowed."
"Do not pray to anything other than fire, any unknown symbols, rituals are forbidden."
"Don't light or extinguish a natural fire without authorization in public, it will be punished with heavy penalties."
Rhode wrote down word for word and asked, "Anything else?"
The aunt thought for a while and replied.
"The rest is about the characteristics of the soul and the ability of the fire that appear after the fire of the soul is ignited. Now it is much looser than before, and only one category is unforgivable."
Rhode hurriedly asked, "What is it?"
Mom replied.
"Soul Devour."
