Immediately afterwards, countless pairs of giant hands broke out of the ground, and a huge black object protruded from the pit.
It was more than a hundred yards in diameter, with black mud flowing on its surface. Countless pairs of giant hands reached out from its interior and dragged the black mud-like thing out of the pit.
The moment it appeared, Rhodes noticed countless translucent shadows appearing around him.
They wear strange dark blue armor, long cloaks, and hold handleless swords and wedge-shaped shields.
Sauron recognized it instantly.
"It's the Fighting Star Knights. Those broken armors and weapons are in this style. Look, there's their fighting star logo on the cloak and shield."
Rhodes was surprised: "Are these their ghosts?"
Sauron's face became extremely gloomy, his spiritual energy flashed in his hands, and he had already entered a fighting state.
"No, this is not a ghost, it is some kind of existence between a projection and a vision, but I don't know if they have anything to do with the original owner..."
Boom!
A bright white light shot into the sky next to him, powerful spiritual energy rushed towards him, and a huge six-armed body appeared in the light.
"How strong."
Six giant arms spread out, six giant swords were raised high, and Jessica's voice came from high up.
“You’ll know after a dozen fights.”
Bang!
Six giant swords fell at the same time and smashed into the phantom in six directions.
Rhodes felt the ground shake, black mud splashed hundreds of yards high, mud and rocks flew everywhere, and the ground cracked.
The giant sword was lifted up, leaving six extremely long sword marks, which were all destroyed by the phantom and dissipated in the air.
Sauron showed a little smile.
"It doesn't seem very strong. He may have inherited half of the combat power of the former Star Knights."
Before she finished speaking, Jessica's windmill was already spinning, and the six giant swords swept over like chopping melons and vegetables, quickly destroying large phantoms.
In the blink of an eye, the six-armed snake demon had already rushed to the strange black object.
"Destroy it."
Six giant swords fell through the air and hit black objects at the same time.
However, something unexpected happened to everyone. The giant sword actually passed through the black object, hit the ground hard, and opened a crack hundreds of yards long.
The black object reappeared not far away, like a phantom.
The giant hand stretched out from inside it again and grabbed it on the ground.
Jessica immediately woke up: "It's a dark and twisted vision!"
Rhodes also discovered the anomaly. He casually destroyed several phantoms, but did not obtain souls, only a very small amount of soulless souls.
This shows that they are just some kind of derivative creation, and the real source of power is not themselves.
Sauron, who has been fighting for a long time and has rich experience, shouted: "We must find the source of the dark and twisted vision and destroy the source before we can eliminate the vision."
Rhodes suddenly remembered his experience in Storm Castle.
This was also the case at that time, and it was also related to the Knights of the Kingdom of Stars. A dark and twisted vision formed by contaminated semi-artifacts constantly spawned some kind of disgusting shit-spewing monsters to attack the city.
When he and the expedition team found the source of the disaster, the dark and twisted vision summoned many undead knights to attack them, and the team was once in dire straits.
Of course, under the leadership of Rhodes' infinite wisdom and heroic spirit, they turned the tide. In the end, the dark twisted vision was careless and accidentally fell into Rhodes' trap. At the critical moment, a soul was born, and then, by Rhodes
It’s so damn hard.
Therefore, sometimes it is a good thing to have no soul, at least you will not be killed by Rhodes.
Just like the one in front of him, Rhodes couldn't see a trace of soul, and even his spiritual energy was deep and restrained, making it hard to see clearly.
It is impossible to use "soul blast" to deal with it.
What's worse is that this dark and twisted phenomenon may have some kind of phantom-related characteristics. It constantly summons the phantoms of the Fighting Star Knights, and it can also turn into a phantom itself to avoid attacks.
Jessica's several attacks failed, and she was unable to find the cause.
The speed of the dark and twisted vision summoning phantoms is getting faster and faster, and countless phantoms appear from the air, almost filling the canyon.
Sauron swung with all his strength, and the forty-yard-long psychic sword wiped out a phantom, but more phantoms immediately emerged.
The power of these phantoms is roughly between the strong primary level and the vicious super level. They originally did not pose any threat to the combat power of the two guardians and a nearly first-level combatant.
But there were so many phantoms that even Jessica couldn't clear them all. They wiped out batch after batch. The phantoms like a tide even passed through the six rotating giant swords and climbed onto Jessica's huge snake.
.
Jessica's psychic power shook and she bounced away these phantoms. She opened up all her firepower and ran wild with her psychic powers. Six giant swords pulled out the afterimages. The sharp sword energy enveloped a range of two hundred yards around her. A huge wind
The howl resounded throughout the Death Scar Canyon, but it was still gradually drowned by the phantom.
On the other side, Rhodes, holding a sword in one hand, also rushed into the phantom group.
Now he is far from the youthful self he once was. He is proficient in combat, has superb skills, and has extremely high ability to use psychic energy. His methods of fighting souls have reached the level of freedom, and the efficiency of psychic energy transformation is extremely high.
, the eleventh-level psychic power that has exceeded 5,000 kilometres also makes him invincible. The advanced [Star Shuttle] is even more powerful. Once the Star Shuttle is fired, all the phantoms in a line are immediately cleared.
Ordinary phantoms couldn't stop him at all. He rushed left and right among the phantoms, as if he were in a deserted land, but the number of phantoms became clearer and clearer. All he could see were translucent shadows shining with light.
.
To make matters worse, Rhodes vaguely felt that the intensity of the phantom was gradually increasing.
This is not only reflected in its psychic powers, but also in its combat capabilities, skills, and use of psychic powers.
Some phantoms began to dodge their attacks, or tried to use force-relieving techniques to parry the attacks. Their attacks also became sharp and clever, and they gradually began to feel like high-level combatants.
Sauron shouted anxiously: "No! The phantoms are resonating with their past existence! The power of this dark and twisted vision is beyond our imagination."
"What do you mean? Is the phantom becoming real?"
"No, but it is becoming as strong as real, and its existence will definitely leave traces. The dark and twisted vision is trying to fit in with the traces of the Knights of the Fighting Star, thereby reviving their power."
Sauron's tone was extremely anxious.
"We must find its cause as soon as possible."
"Teacher Sauron." Rhodes shouted: "I have an immature idea. If I guess correctly, the artifact of the Fighting Star Knights, the Wedge of Wind, is the source of this dark and twisted phenomenon.
Because!"
Sauron frowned: "How do you know?"
Rhodes briefly told the story of the Battle of Storm Castle.
Sauron understood immediately. He thought nervously for a few seconds. The more he thought about it, the more likely it became.
"That's right."
he shouted.
"This guess is very possible. When the artifact is contaminated, its powerful power may give birth to a dark and twisted phenomenon, affecting the surrounding space and laws. This dark and twisted phenomenon is so closely related to the Knights of the Fighting Star.
It must be related to them! You must have a way to eliminate it, right?"
Rhodes replied: "Yes, but I have to get close to it before I can use this method."
"What can I do? Is it possible?"
"Yes, my... uh, there are some soul fragments stored in the rice bucket. If I pour them into the dark twisted vision, I can force it to give birth to a soul as soon as possible. The newly born soul is very fragile and has no protection. I
One blow can kill you."
Sauron glanced at the dark and twisted vision in the distance behind the layers of phantoms, and asked worriedly: "Is it possible? With its level of power, the fragile time of the soul is fleeting."
Rhodes smiled and said: "Believe me, teacher, I am no longer a young student, and I will not miss any opportunity to penetrate."
"Okay!"
Soran suddenly jumped back and jumped near Jessica.
"Jessica, protect me for a moment."
Jessica immediately understood, and the windmill immediately surrounded Sauron. The giant sword and strong wind roared around him, but they did not hurt him at all.
Sauron's spiritual energy surged, and a green-white light covered his body. He was becoming spiritual, and powerful power gathered in his hands at an unimaginable speed. The surging spiritual energy was almost liquid, and it was in his body.
The flow in the veins is clearly visible.
In his hand, it seemed as if liquid light was extending.
Gradually, an unprecedented super psychic sword appeared in his hand.
Sauron's exclusive weapon was broken and his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, but his characteristics can still be used.
"Rhode, get ready to go!"
He shouted.
"You only have this chance! You must seize it!"
Rhodes understood instantly, was highly concentrated, and his spiritual energy had been gathered in advance.
The next second, Sauron clenched the giant sword with both hands and raised it high.
Accompanied by a deafening shout, the huge psychic sword slashed in the direction of the dark twisted vision at an extremely fast speed.
Boom!
White light soared into the sky, penetrating the thick black fog, and the heavy black rain was blown away without a trace. The whole world was left with only white light.
Countless phantoms melted and disappeared in the white light. Rhodes moved his feet and rushed in the opposite direction.
Sure enough, the dark twisted vision used phantom to escape the blow, and appeared again in another direction, almost the same as Rhodes.
Rhodes immediately stretched out his hands, and with a thought, countless black and white soulless souls spurted out from his palms, mixed with translucent spirituality and some small souls, quickly drowning the dark and twisted vision.
The white light fell, and Sauron's spiritual energy was exhausted again.
He was exhausted and fell to the ground, but he still kept his eyes on Rhodes and shouted: "Is it useful?"
Rhodes didn't speak. After a brief pause, the black object turned into a phantom and disappeared again, but most of the soulless souls and spirituality left on the ground were empty, and must have been swallowed by it.
When the soulless soul and spirit are exposed to a highly polluted environment, they quickly decay and turn into a sticky black thing.
Rhodes had a flash of inspiration and hit several star shuttles, destroying them.
And in the empty environment, phantoms appeared again.
Sauron said disappointedly: "Did you fail?"
"No."
This time it’s Jessica’s voice.
Her huge snake body turned around and looked into the distance on the other side.
The dark and twisted vision stopped there, and its appearance had changed.
Black mud fell from its body, revealing countless broken corpses, severed hands, broken legs, shrunken heads, broken bodies and internal organs, and bone fragments, all piled together to form a huge pile of corpses.<
/p>
Dozens of giant hands poked out from the pile of corpses and propped it up on the ground.
"This is the remains of the Knights of the Fighting Star."
Jessica said in a deep voice.
"No wonder the armors we found were all empty. Their corpses were gathered together by this thing. This is a dark and twisted vision with undead attributes."
Rhodes' face was gloomy.
Its existence is a blasphemy to the warriors who fought bravely in the darkness. No matter what, it must be destroyed.
He has seen that there are souls gathering inside it. As long as the soul appears, its death will come.
At this time, new phantoms are still appearing, but the number has been greatly reduced.
But Jessica suddenly discovered that they seemed to be solidifying.
