This soul is the first and most complete soul he obtained after just completing the "quantification" of [Dark Devourer].
Due to its special name, it escaped many rounds of sacrifices and has been retained until now.
I didn't expect it to work at this time.
[Destroy and Burn]: Destroy the soul and gain an ability that it was best at during its lifetime. Depending on the specificity and completeness of the soul, the longest duration is seven sunset rounds and the shortest duration is one sand gravel.
This is an effort that the Soul Altar has after reaching the complete state.
Rhodes occasionally used it to destroy monster souls to gain monster abilities.
But the effect is not very good. The soul of a monster is completely different from that of a human being. Rhodes can actually only obtain part of its characteristics, which not only lasts for a short time, but also requires the sacrifice of multiple souls to enhance the effect.
I wonder what the soul of this King of Thieves is like.
Logically speaking, since he is known as the King of Thieves, his best abilities should be sneaking and stealing.
But Rhodes was not entirely sure. He came to the soul altar, took out the soul from the crystal wall, held it in both hands, and activated [Destroy and Burn] with a thought.
Dark flames burst out from the depths of the soul, turning this large gray mist into a burning fireball.
After a few seconds, the flames fell and the soul disappeared.
A light gray light flashed over Rhodes.
He looked at his hands and felt that nothing had changed.
"Book." Rhodes asked uncertainly: "Did I succeed?"
The Book of Knowledge wrote impatiently: "You will know if you go out and give it a try? Don't bother me with this little thing."
After saying that, it ran away.
"This guy..."
Rhodes had an idea and returned to the material world. As soon as he walked out of the door, he realized something was wrong.
He is currently stationed at the King's Hand, which is full of senior guards belonging to the King's Guard.
They are generally above level four combatants, have rich experience and powerful perception, and are very sensitive to every move around them. However, when he walked out of the room and out of the station, no one noticed him.
Rhodes turned around and walked back to the station.
This time, with a high degree of concentration, he discovered that, unknowingly, his steps were as silent as a cat, his body was as invisible as the wind, and his sense of existence had become very weak for some reason, unlike the surroundings.
The environment is integrated.
Rhodes tried to get close to a King's Hand who had just taken a psychic potion and was meditating on digestion.
During meditation, his perception was the most acute, but Rhodes came behind him quietly and saw a dagger in his arms.
As soon as I thought about it, I stretched out my sinful hands, and before I knew it, the dagger was in my hands.
Rhodes looked at it for a while.
This is a piece of spiritual equipment.
The sword body is made of pure silver, inlaid with star rubies, and the hilt is a complete piece of ruby. The input spiritual energy will be rectified, making the true silver on the sword more stable.
This is a weapon with very strong additional damage to monsters. The user pays more attention to skill and speed, weakening the monster's spiritual energy with frequent attacks, rather than hitting the monster with heavy blows.
From this point of view, the characteristics of the King's Hand may be related to acceleration or avoidance, so he chose such a weapon.
After Rhodes finished looking at the dagger, he moved his hand, and it returned intact to the arms of the King's Hand.
And he was still unaware.
I wipe it!
This king of thieves is extraordinary!
Rhodes was ecstatic to discover that this was not just a technique, but also seemed to have its own characteristics.
His body became hazy, as if shrouded in invisible mist, and some specific parts, such as his hands and feet, even became transparent.
Hahaha, he is indeed the King of Thieves, Mist.
Maggots, your doom has come!
Amid laughter, Rhodes ran out of the station and ran along the street.
Sure enough, both pedestrians and patrol guards on the road turned a blind eye to him.
Both people and shops are transparent in his eyes.
He can take whatever he wants and leave whenever he wants, with almost no restrictions.
Along the way, just driven by instinct, he had a lot of worthless gadgets in his hands.
This is the result of his intentional control, otherwise he could steal everyone who passes by.
OK!
I don't want to do this, I simply can't bear the title of King of Thieves.
Now let you feel the fear of being dominated by thieves from thousands of years ago.
Hahaha.
Rod ran towards the first goal on his list.
The remaining six justices.
——
Justice Murray's residence.
This is one of the many luxurious mansions on Queen Street in Uptown.
As a descendant of the giant bloodline, Mori monopolized the position of Eastern District Justice. His family has held this position for generations, but it was not until his generation that he became rich with the prosperity of the royal city.
The entire mansion is full of the nouveau riche temperament, with gold and silver everywhere, and even a pillar is covered with gold foil.
Rhodes was tearing apart as he walked, and many servants and their families screamed in surprise.
"Huh? Where's the gold on this pillar?"
"The wall is peeling off again."
"Hey, this house is too old. No matter how much decoration it is, it can't cover up its ancient history. It's time to... where is my money??"
Rhodes blew by like a gust of wind, blowing away the glitz and glory, allowing them to relive the hardships of the past, remember the mission of mankind, and not lose their true heart in the face of prosperity.
It just so happens that the royal city is currently expanding its armaments and is quite short of supplies.
Just think of it as donating to the greatest cause of mankind.
Haha.
Rhodes quickly came to the hall, and his instinct suddenly made him hold his breath and tiptoe.
He walked carefully into the hall, and sure enough he saw Justice Murray himself.
He sat at the top of the table with a gloomy face.
"Although the arrogance of that little bastard has been suppressed, the situation cannot be reversed. The royal city will inevitably turn to expansion. The king's new law has been implemented. All my properties have been severely damaged. If the war goes unfavorably in the future, our family property will also be expropriated.
It's possible."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
A slightly younger man asked: "Father, what should we do now?"
"Now I can only endure it for the time being. I have transferred all my real assets to the underground treasury. Whenever there is an opportunity in the future, we will try to interfere with the expansion. If we suffer serious setbacks, we may be able to make Wangcheng stop this unwise move." Then they started discussing specific details.
For example, how to destroy without leaving traces, how to add corrupted and expired medicine to good healing medicine, and how to wrap rotten matter in healing bandages.
When they win in the royal city, they will brag wildly and hold the victor high, as if tomorrow they can sweep away the dark world and bring mankind back to the era of light.
When the royal city fails, they will spread pessimism and despair everywhere and create chaos internally.
Wait, etc.
Rhodes hid in the shadow of the pillar and heard half of it, knowing that this guy must be involved in sabotaging the expedition.
And the fact that they can say such things unscrupulously in this hall proves that this hall is safe.
The evidence can certainly be found here.
As for the current conversation, Rhodes also recorded it.
Although it is also very serious, it is impossible to uproot this family without actual operations.
Rhodes pressed the ground with one hand and found the book of the past that had been dusty for a long time in his consciousness. As soon as the thought came to his mind, the pages of the book began to turn.
Scenes from the past appeared in front of us scene after scene, with various characters coming in and out of the scene. Although the matters discussed were very over-the-top, they were not essentially different from today's dialogue.
As time goes by, the consumption of spiritual energy becomes greater and greater.
After more than a month, Rhodes already felt a little tired.
After more than two months, the consumption of psychic energy suddenly increased sharply, like a standing cobra.
When it exceeds three months, the spiritual energy will double every day.
If this continues, he won't be able to hold on for long.
Just when Rhodes was anxious, he suddenly saw a picture.
In the picture, nine justices walked into the hall one after another, including the deceased Laiweier, Amory, and Krama.
Among the nine people, the vague leader is Eliville.
He sat at the top and began to talk.
Although there is no sound in the picture of the Book of the Past, his words can be roughly distinguished from the shape of his mouth.
——They are very worried about the development of Fanxing Town, sad about the failure of the sabotage operation against Fanxing Town, and are planning a fatal attack on Fanxing Town, initially targeting the Aries Demon hundreds of thousands of yards away from Fanxing Town.<
/p>
Rhodes was shocked and immediately returned to the dreamland.
Go to the hut, take out the book of the past from the bookshelf, and then take out the image crystal.
Open the book of the past, determine the time, input psychic energy, and the picture will appear on the page, clearly recorded by the image crystal.
Rhodes played the entire negotiation process at five times speed. Combined with the evidence found in Fanxing Town, where the internal affairs tribunal was previously located, this photo crystal is enough to send all six of them and their families to the underground prison of the royal city, and will face the most extreme punishment.
Punishment.
OK!
Done!
Rhodes beamed with joy and felt very excited. He rushed up to pick up the book of knowledge that was eating melon on the side and took a few bites, annoying the latter.
"That's enough for you! Can you act like a master? Didn't you just kill a few bugs? What's there to be happy about? The previous master was not a super strong person who led the times and stood at the forefront of the era. He was the smallest person they had ever encountered.
The trouble is tens of thousands of times greater than yours..."
Rod, who was in a happy mood, didn't even insert it angrily, but quickly returned to the material world.
The evidence had been obtained, but he did not leave immediately. Instead, as Justice Murray said before, he found his underground warehouse.
In front of the ultra-thick black iron door, a very exaggerated and complicated lock hung in front of him, but Rhodes only used two fingers to open it.
The warehouse is filled with all kinds of rare minerals and materials.
If Rhodes was not easy to get in the past, going back and forth to the dreamland too frequently would be very damaging to the spirit.
But now, Rhodes only used a dream ritual to move the entire inner treasury.
Haha.
I told you to frame me!
Just consider it as my mental damages!
Rhodes left Justice Murray's mansion with satisfaction and went to find the next lucky person on the list.
As a result, the entire royal city ushered in an extraordinary day.
Rhodes first ransacked the residences of the remaining five justices, not only taking out all their inventory, but also stealing all their money. The dreamland was like a tornado, even taking away half of the land.
The only troublesome thing is that the dream ritual can only lock one item. After it is transferred in, it must be transferred out before another item can be transferred.
Therefore, every time Rhodes commits suicide, he has to go back to his mansion and store the acquired property in the basement.
The basement quickly filled up, and he had to pile things directly in the courtyard.
Anyway, as the captain of the Hand of the King, no one dares to break into the mansion.
After looting all the justices, Rhodes began to look for the people on the list one after another.
Everyone follows the same process, determine the location, determine the time, open the book of the past, record the evidence with the photo crystal, then loot the person, return the property to the mansion, and then look for the next target.
In just one day, Rhodes had removed almost half of the opponents in the upper city.
It was only in the evening that someone finally discovered the theft.
This matter is neither big nor small. Although the parties involved cried and howled, the Internal Affairs Adjudication Office just lazily followed the procedures.
It wasn't until the thefts of eucalyptus continued to increase sharply that the chief adjudicator noticed this.
But at this time, Rhodes had already arrived at the residence of Grand Adjudicator Manolo Bana.
After collecting a series of clues, he has determined that opponents' rallies are often held in his mansion.
This man is the leader of the opponents, and he definitely hides countless secrets.
It will be clear at this moment whether he is a doomsday cultist, a traitor driven by greed, or a stupid person being used.
Rhodes stepped into the mansion with confidence.
However, this time the operation was far from smooth as before.
Rhodes tore through almost every part of the Book of the Past, leaving no place untouched, but he couldn't find any evidence that could serve as evidence of the crime.
This is not right.
Rhodes keenly discovered the anomaly.
He looked at the scenes of the past three months in a small, dark underground room, but no one had ever come in here.
But this room clearly shows signs of use.
There is a psychic imaging communicator among them, which has obviously been used many times.
And Rhodes also happened to have the psychic fluctuations recorded by it.
——That's Jon's communication mark.
Rhodes knew very well that Manolo Bana was close to Jon, but after this period of contact, Rhodes' impression of Jon has changed a lot.
As a candidate for the king, he absolutely puts the interests of Trolian before his life, and it is impossible for him to harm the interests of the entire Trorian human race for his own selfish purposes like the opponents.
What the hell is going on?
Rhodes returned to the dreamland and carefully checked the book of the past day by day.
Finally, he discovered something abnormal.
The scene I see on certain days is actually a static picture.
At the end of the day, some details on the screen suddenly changed, but no one came in.
There is no doubt that this period of history has been covered up.
Rhodes asked the Book of Knowledge, who lazily fanned the pages and wrote.
"Of course you can, but there are some traces that can be found in the Book of the Past. Try increasing the input of psychic energy."
Rhodes followed his instructions and returned to the book, increasing his psychic input.
Sure enough, the picture of that day disappeared and turned into a blank.
The handwriting in the Book of Knowledge looks much more solemn, and he writes.
"This period of history has been erased by some mysterious force, which involves the power of God. It may be the influence of a certain artifact or semi-artifact, which intentionally obscures this period of history."
Rhodes remained silent. Based on this single suspicion, Manolo Bana was suspected of being unclear.
But there is no evidence.
Wangcheng is very concerned about evidence. In the past history, there have been enough tragedies caused by arresting people without evidence.
It is impossible to cure Manolobana's sins with just a few words from him.
What the hell.
Rhodes slammed the table.
This guy must be a doomsday cultist.
This matter was probably done by the Book of Destiny.
Rhodes was very unhappy. In order to calm down this mood, he cleaned Manolo Bana's house clean. He even used the instinct of the king of thieves to find his hidden warehouses hidden everywhere and emptied them all.
.
To be honest, he didn't expect the Manolo Bana family to be so rich. The combined wealth of all previous opponents was not as much as his.
He has more than 100,000 tons of true silver alone, and its purity is close to 100%, which is equivalent to the output of the true silver veins in Fanxing Town in one month.
There are countless other types of materials.
Rhodes smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, and suddenly felt that it didn't matter if there was no evidence.
After finishing this job, the last target is Chief Consul Talinas.
Nothing went wrong in this operation.
Rhodes quickly found a lot of evidence, proving that he was not only an opponent who participated in the sabotage expedition, but also a pure-blooded doomsday cultist.
Deep in his heart he is filled with a deep hatred for mankind, and he repentes for his hard work every day. Everything he has done so far is aimed at destroying mankind in the future.
This is the fundamental tenet among doomsday believers.
They believe that humans are evil and must destroy humans to gain peace.
Such people are also a minority among doomsday believers. Most of today’s doomsday believers are people who are unhappy and try to make huge profits and change their lives through the doomsday.
Since then, Rhodes' actions have come to an end.
In one day, he checked nearly two hundred opponents, and only less than 10% of them did not cross the line, and they were later marginalized.
Ninety percent of the people participated in the destruction of Fanxing Town.
There are also several doomsday cultists mixed in, adding fuel to the flames and fanning the flames.
Rhodes spent more than 200 yuan on the photo crystal, and the confiscated property almost overflowed from his mansion.
At this time, the theft had broken out in full force. People were running and wailing everywhere in the upper city. A large number of judges and investigators were shuttled through the streets and alleys. Even the higher-ups were alarmed.
When Rhodes went to the Holy Fire Sacrifice to find the king, he happened to see the first elder Armando, and dozens of elders and senior figures in the royal city stood beside him.
