Rhodes was greatly shocked by the words of the doll Avro, and also made him realize the reality more thoroughly.
The world has completely fallen into darkness and is falling at an accelerating rate. The black fog has eroded all time and space it can reach, and countless powerful creatures have turned into monsters.
The surviving humans huddled next to the fire, shivering in the howling wind and boundless darkness, while the shadows of strange monsters loomed in the hazy place where the firelight and black fog met.
What's even more terrifying is that among humans, there are still some lunatics trying to put out the fire and fall into the embrace of darkness.
And Rhodes clearly knew that there was something even more terrifying than this - the sacred fire that supported human existence was on the verge of collapse.
Once the sacred fire is extinguished, the consequences will be unimaginable.
We must do our best to assist the king in realizing the Holy Fire Plan and seize the Holy Fire Seed from Tasnia Star City.
Rhodes thought.
The more power he contributes, the greater the positive impact he and Dreamland will have on mankind, and the more divinity Dreamland will gain.
Divinity is the most important resource in dreams.
But Rhodes has always had some doubts about this.
"Why can you gain divinity by helping humans?"
The puppet Avro calmly replied: "In the endless chaos and disorder, only the entropy of intelligent creatures is decreasing and the degree of order is increasing, like the phosphorus fire rising from the dark sea, maintaining the existence and continuation of the world.
, Dreams are the source of order and can gain power from the reduction of entropy. This is divinity."
"Similarly, we can also gain strength from the orderly activities of low-entropy bodies. This is human nature."
Rhodes suddenly understood and asked: "Why can humanity be obtained directly, but divinity must wait until the stars shine?"
The puppet Avro said calmly: "Divinity is a very powerful resource. To obtain divinity, you need to use the power of the stars. Only when the stars shine, the stars will not be obscured by the black mist."
The stars it talks about are not the stars in dreams, but the stars in the extremely high spiritual world.
They are polymers of infinite and huge spirits, possessing unimaginable mysterious power.
The activities of the stars not only directly determine the human date calendar, but also greatly affect human daily activities.
Rhodes asked: "Are there any connections between the stars in dreams and them?"
The puppet Avro shook his head: "There is no direct connection, I have lost this part of the memory."
"Isn't your soul also intact?"
"Yes, after the dream was shattered, we were all severely impacted. Our souls were shattered and our memories were incomplete."
Rhodes asked curiously: "You once said that you want to find your original selves, so isn't your current form your original appearance?"
The puppet Avro calmly replied: "Of course not, I am not a puppet, and the book of knowledge is not a book."
"Then what are you?"
"I'm sorry, Master, the memory loss is too much, I can't remember."
"How can I recover?"
"We need to retrieve the fragments, repair the soul, and also need some divinity."
Rhodes nodded, somewhat understanding why the Book of Knowledge cares so much about the development of dreams and the acquisition of divinity.
The puppet looked at him with yellowed and lifeless eyes, and said in a still calm tone: "Master, can you give us some divinity in the future?"
Rhodes said casually: "Of course."
The doll stopped talking. After that, it explained to Rhodes how to use dreams more deeply.
To put it simply, after the dream obtains energy, it has become "alive". Rhodes can directly use his soul and will to interact with the dream, directly implement the corresponding functions, and obtain the corresponding information.
Rhodes tried it, and sure enough, he could do many things without moving his hands, and it felt like the dream world had merged with him.
Later, the doll told him that he should reach the tenth level of psychic power as soon as possible.
Nightmares are truly powerful dark existences. Even with the suppression of dreams, they are very difficult to deal with.
Only when you reach the tenth level of spiritual power can you initially break away from the realm of mortals.
As the dream activity intensifies, the invasion will become stronger and stronger, and many ancient dark existences will be awakened. The master must seize the time to grow.
Rhodes frowned and felt a little heavy. Although his spiritual power had increased dramatically, it should still be below the tenth level of spiritual power.
The pressure is still very high.
The puppet said: "If the dream has divinity, we can use the divine blade or the spiritual strike of the star core to effectively attack the invading monsters, and the situation will be better."
Rhodes' heart sank, but he did not regret it. Helping the king kill Latotip, the Lord of Nightmares, was the right thing to do.
As long as he resists this wave, his gains will be the greatest.
It is also the greatest help to mankind.
"I understand." He nodded.
The puppet continued: "Dreams themselves can also produce divinity. When the source's energy flows through the dream, it itself is an improvement in order. On average, for every 5 sources of energy, 1 point of divinity can be obtained per week." Rhodes frowned and said: "We only have 9 sources of energy now, doesn't that mean we only have 1 point?"
"Yes."
"One o'clock a week is too little."
The puppet said calmly: "When there are more stars in the dream, the income from divinity will be considerable."
Rhodes sighed: "Well, I hope this day comes soon."
Walk out of the House of God, pick up the two remaining pieces of soul firewood under the obelisk, and put them in the storage.
"By the way, Avro, do you know where it came from?"
Rhodes briefly told what happened.
Unexpectedly, the doll immediately answered his question: "This is a relic of the previous Dream Lord."
Rhodes was surprised: "The last one?"
"Yes, the last owner of the dreamland was the flower on the shore, the prince of the north, Hegeol."
"The Starry Kingdom's semi-artifact, the Star Scale, was a miraculous creation he created in his dream and was given to the Queen of Stars, Lena Night Sky."
"The Queen of the Stars used it to form the Knights of the Stars."
"After Hegeor was defeated, the dream was shattered, and the items in the storage space of the House of God were also scattered across the earth."
"The Star Balance is a creation of a dream, with the aura of a dream. It still maintains a certain spirituality after being corrupted, and has collected soul firewood that also has the aura of a dream."
The puppet paused and continued.
"Master, such a battle is extremely dangerous. It is not something that can be encountered under normal circumstances. There must be some hidden existence that affects the development of things. Please be careful."
Rhodes frowned and didn't notice the words behind the doll. The name "Flowers on the Shore, Prince of the North Hegeor" made him feel extremely familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
After thinking hard for a long time, Rhodes couldn't find a clue.
He raised his head and saw the dark red star in the dream night sky.
It was like a red eye staring at him, with a strange attraction.
[Dark Devourer], this is his first star and his core ability, plundering souls and swallowing darkness.
Without it, Rhodes wouldn’t be what it is now.
It?
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Rhode's mind.
He remembered.
Isn't that "Northern Prince Hegeal" the nigger he met in his first dream?
It was hitting the obelisk crazily, causing continuous severe pain in its head. When Rhodes accidentally fell into a dream, it rushed forward as soon as it saw him, full of hatred, and eager to kill him. In the end, it was killed by the Divine Blade, and Rhodes directly obtained its soul.
Then, it flew into the soul side of the obelisk on its own, submerged into the [Dark Devourer], and directly ignited it.
No wonder!
No wonder [Dark Devourer] is different from other stars. It does not require soul firewood. It is a complete body as soon as it comes up, but the soul strength it provides is pitiful.
This must be the reason for the soul of "Hegeor, Prince of the North".
However, if he was the previous owner of the dream, why did he become like that? Why did he attack the obelisk he once guarded with all his life, and even became full of hatred for himself, the new owner of the dream?
There is no other explanation other than being corrupted and losing one's mind.
But according to Rhodes' current experience, humanity is very easy to acquire, and as long as there is humanity, it is impossible to be eroded.
The most important thing is that according to the Book of Knowledge, every owner of the dream is a strong man of the times and a hero of mankind.
Even if his humanity is exhausted and he becomes a monster, he should be instantly killed when he was still an ordinary person. Why is there still room for struggle?
Rhodes felt a heavy chill in his heart.
Sure enough, the puppet gave an explanation he expected.
Hegeor's soul was shattered and his dream was in pieces. Although he was resurrected by the Resurrection Stone, his dream was destroyed and everything was over.
But his remaining soul was unwilling to admit defeat, and gathered in the broken and dead dream, waiting for its rebirth.
However, the thousand-year wait resulted in the arrival of another dream master. The remnant soul of Hegeor exhausted its power over the long years. It went crazy, completely blackened and fell into darkness.
It also brought Rhodes his first fire.
The essence of the remnant soul has not been lost. It swallowed its own soul and ignited the [Dark Devourer], which is how all this began.
After listening to the doll's words, Rhodes felt very heavy.
The previous dream owner's fate was so tragic that it was difficult for him not to think of himself.
Rhodes asked softly: "How did he die?"
The puppet replied briefly: "Defend the city and die."
"...What city?"
"Flowers on the cold shore, the northern fortress of Belglier."
"What is that place?"
"His royal city, his capital, his sacred fire, the northern gateway of mankind."
Rhodes felt even heavier and asked a question he already knew the answer to: "What will happen to mankind after his death?"
The doll calmly replied: "Destroyed."
"What happens next?"
"We have no memory."
"Why do you know so much? But not the Book of Knowledge?"
"The degree of incompleteness of our souls is different, and the book of knowledge is good at knowledge. It does not have any special advantages in non-knowledge issues."
Rhodes took a long breath and decided to end this heavy topic.
"Aphro, why do you also call the Celestial Armed Forces Dreamland?"
The doll calmly replied: "It is our duty to follow the master's will."
"Okay."
Rhodes sighed.
Let's take it one step at a time. Maybe if I absorb their failure experience, I can avoid making the same mistakes again?
However, when Rhodes asked about the details of the incident, the doll couldn't tell it - its memory was also very incomplete.
Rhodes did not ask any more questions, but silently thought that he must find more dream fragments as soon as possible.
Before leaving, Rhodes glanced at the numbers on the obelisk:
Soul Strength:
Soul Star:8
Human nature: 21.51 million
Divinity:1
Soulless soul: 061 million
——
Rhodes returned to the material world with a heavy heart. After barely sleeping for a night, he came to the psychic laboratory located on the west side of the Fire Palace.
Here, he received a new psychic report.
Tester: Rhodes
Psychic Level: 9
Maximum psychic strength: 1345 thousand ticks
Maximum psychic output: 261 thousand ticks
Average spiritual pressure: 84 thousand moments
Estimated total amount of psychic energy: 20 tracks
——
This was a very eye-catching report. Miss Mina, who was responsible for testing him, was so surprised and delighted that she couldn't help but give him another full-body examination, only to discover an even bigger surprise.
"You have ignited a new fire?"
"You already have eight fire seeds!"
Rhodes smiled dryly and said: "It's okay, I'm too weak..."
Mina rolled her eyes: "You are still weak, so don't I have to die?"
Rhodes smiled and said, "How is that possible? Isn't the most valuable thing about Sister Mina her knowledge and her will to pursue the truth? Psionics are just a tool to facilitate your research for you."
"That's right!"
Mina proudly put her hands on her hips. This movement caused her beige knitted sweater to rise up and almost hit Rod.
"My wisdom is my most precious thing. I will definitely find the truth of the world, develop unprecedentedly powerful weapons, destroy all monsters, save the world, and become the savior of mankind, hahahahaha!"
Rhodes laughed a few times.
After learning about the tragic situation of the previous dream owner, he no longer dared to say words like saving the world.
The researcher on the side glanced at her and muttered: "Where does a woman with big breasts and no brains get her wisdom? For a guy like you that no one wants, the most precious thing is probably your number one..."
Snap!
Mina knocked him to the ground with a backhand palm and glared: "What did you say?"
The researcher covered his cheek and looked at the furious Mina in disbelief. He suddenly became scared: "I'm sorry, sister, I was wrong..."
Mina said angrily: "Get out of here, get out of here, what's the first time? I have experienced so many men. If I hadn't devoted myself to the truth, I would have given birth to a child. Who would you be talking about behind my back?" p>
The researcher hid his face and left.
Mina was still angry and grabbed Rhodes: "Let's go to bed with me and let you see my rich skills."
Rhodes said hurriedly: "Sister Mina, don't be angry. That person is jealous of you. You are so charming. Which man is not fascinated by you. Who would say no to whomever you want to sleep with? It's just that.
It’s just that you are devoted to the truth and have no time for other things.”
Humanity 50.
Mina said happily: "You are so right! If I wasn't busy saving the world, how could I be alone...ahem cough cough."
Rhodes smiled and said: "Sister Mina, I have finished writing my book. This is the knowledge I currently have. Please take it back and share it with your teachers and other great scholars. I hope you can learn more from it.
The truth, find more new strength, and work hard for the survival and continuation of mankind."
Mina immediately forgot what happened just now and took the thick stack of books handed over by Rhodes.
Opening a book at random, it is filled with the knowledge she dreams of.
She asked in disbelief: "So much? You actually have so much knowledge?"
Rhodes smiled and said: "Yes, this is what my genius brain figured out in countless days and nights."
Mina read several books in a row, and the logical and rigorous knowledge system made her deeply anxious.
After just a few glances, she was already immersed in it. The huge joy hit her heart, and she couldn't wait for a moment. She just wanted to share this knowledge with her teacher immediately.
Humanity 611
"Great! This is simply a miracle. You are really a genius! I believe more and more that you can save us. I must give birth to my first child with you."
A gust of fragrant wind blew by, and Mina gave Rhodes a hug.
"Little Rod, I'm leaving now. We'll talk later!"
