Chapter 503
「 You are an existence that I created to replace my past 」 he learned of this as soon as he woke up.
But the King of Darkspirits didn't feel that replacing Lord Negri's position in the past was a disgrace. Instead, he felt a kind of desire towards Negri, like a child longing for his father's praise. He wanted to do everything that Lord Negri ordered him to do.
After all, Negri personally gave him life, from nothing, created the King of Darkspirits, and embedded him into the history of this world.
That was how he was able to exist.
That was why the King of Darkspirits madly worshipped Negri, wanting to obtain his recognition.
Those humans had underestimated him too much. As an existence created by Negri, he was like a Heroic Spirit that could use the power of Merits. All of Negri's Merits in this world were replaced by him, so all of the things that Negri had passed down in the past gave him power.
Furthermore, Negri had never been too stingy with his creations. The King of Darkspirits was able to browse through Negri's library of knowledge, as long as he could handle it, he would be able to read and learn it.
In fact, within the illusory sea of knowledge, the King of Darkspirits had even adjusted the flow of time and learned the majority of the knowledge. It was because of this that he understood Negri's greatness.
"Rhys"
The King of Darkspirits' grey eyes turned. A figure appeared from the fog next to him and lightly bowed.
"Your plan has succeeded, the Saintess that you once served had most of her power restrained"
"Her Highness Nala has always been like that, like the sun in the sky, she shines down upon us. Until today, she has always been my light" Rhys Laval, the Grand Marshal of Interkam, said so, not concealing his admiration for Nala in the slightest.
"What an unqualified strategist" the King of Darkspirits didn't get angry. The King of Darkspirits was not angry. He had pulled her out of the historical record precisely because he was most familiar with Nala.
Because Rhys Laval had placed pestilence insects in the lake and the plague in his home, it caused the Interkam Kingdom's capital to suffer a plague outbreak that hastened the country's destruction. At the time, almost all of the plagues originated from Negri. In the twisted history, Rhys had become a follower of the King of Evil and was hiding by Nala's side.
This also allowed the Darkspirit King to pull him out of history and give him the identity of a Darkspirit.
Putting aside the fact that he had absolute control over the evil spirits due to the distorted history, even without this control, Rhys would have taken the initiative to join him.
"Those people do not deserve to be saved!" Rhys said when he volunteered to help the Darkspirit King.
Her Highness Nala sacrificed herself in exchange for peace, but it was gone in just 300 years. Those people did not cherish this peace at all, and even today, the darkness in their hearts still hadn't dissipated. They had all let down her light.
It was the same this time. Nala's peaceful sleep had been disturbed, and those people who were not worth saving had once again pushed Nala into danger, selfishly harming Lady Nala.
"Although my actions are just as selfish" Rhys smiled bitterly. The darkness in his heart was no less than those people, in fact, it was even more. He selfishly longed for that light without the slightest bit of lust, only pure worship.
"Damn it!" As Sakura walked inside the fog, she could only feel chills all over her body. The environment here was both friendly and unfriendly at the same time.
In this place, her Spirit-branded Spirits' power was amplified by at least 10%. At their level, a slight difference in strength could mean the difference between life and death, and a 10% increase in power was already a huge amount, so her Spirit-branded Spirits were showing signs of losing control.
"If the prisoner hadn't been injured by Huang Mao earlier, he would have already suffered a backlash." Sakura raised her umbrella. This time, the enemy had the upper hand. With the chaotic space inside the fog, she had only taken one step before she was already separated from the rest of the group. It wouldn't be long before the enemy used the advantage of dividing the battlefield to eliminate them one by one.
Sakura's guess was right, a large number of Evil Spirits were currently gathered together, traveling through the fog in search of any signs of life. With so many Evil Spirits attacking at once, even Nala would have to use her full strength to fight them off, let alone the others.
The massacre was carried out inside the fog, the 528 members of the Evil Spirit Crusade had fallen into a state of chaos. Aside from that, there were also a large number of Royas and Derim soldiers among them. They were clearly a powerful force, but because of the chaos, they were unable to exert their full strength.
This fog originated from Negri's false identity as an Evil Spirit, coupled with the fact that Negri had extracted his own existence and replaced it with the King of Evil Spirits, this action formed a symbolic ability: false history.
The fog was not an ability of the King of Evil Spirits, but an extremely rare natural phenomenon. Just like setting a mountain on fire, a forest fire, as long as the conditions were right, could be started with a lighter. The King of Evil Spirits' ability was that lighter, and this fog was that forest fire.
The difference was that the Evil Spirits were not affected by this natural phenomenon, they could even guide the fog to a certain direction, while the other humans had no resistance against this natural phenomenon.
Xu Yao was like a human-shaped black hole, absorbing the fog and spitting it out after a while. His body was not used to this power, so he could not use the Devour ability carelessly, otherwise, the power would be too chaotic, and it would instead decrease his strength.
His figure flashed, and he walked freely in the fog. Although it was not suitable for him, through his analysis of this power, he had mastered the technique of walking normally in the fog.
"The most important thing now is to find the others and tell them the method." Xu Yao leaped up again, but he felt his feet sink. A pitch-black, withered hand was pulling at his feet.
"Give me back my power!" More and more black ghostly figures walked out of the fog, causing Xu Yao's heart to sink slightly. He knew all of these ghostly figures.
Before carrying the Seed of Truth, his Devour ability had to suck the target's blood. Before the third divinity flowed out, his Devour ability had to kill the target and eat enough of the target's flesh and blood. Before that, he had to eat the target alive.
"Illusion? Drawback reading? Is it still a karmic ability? " Xu Yao looked calmly at the opponents he had eaten. These people were from other worlds, so obviously they did not have the ability to summon the dead. In any case, he was probably stalled for the time being.
The rumor of Negary's ability to see through people's minds, combined with the words that Negary existed in every person's mind, as well as the information about the Ghostmen's secondary soul, formed this ability, in simple terms, was the Demonification of mental defects.
The King of Evil Spirits could see through the flaws in people's hearts and extract them. The bigger the flaw in your heart, the stronger the Evil Spirit that was extracted.
Sakura's body shivered. The prisoner had become stronger again. In this environment, something had been strengthening him. If he could not suppress this growth, he would immediately suffer a backlash.
