The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1335 - 660: Horror Castle 2

In an instant, Liszt realized that if the Horror Castle is the true king’s legacy from the Age of Fire, it might not only contain pure star source, but also primordial spiritual energy!

After figuring this out, he immediately sent this information back to the Royal City using the highest level of spiritual communication.

Horace immediately gathered all special level combatants in the Royal City.

Currently, Trolian’s expansion war has reached a critical moment, and a large number of combatants are outside, unable to return.

Within the Royal City, the only special level forces are Bossivale, Qingyu, Peibela, and Rod, plus the quasi-special level forces of Horace and Lucian, no others.

However, Bossivale is now incredibly busy, almost impossible to pull away.

Lucian needs to suppress the Doomsday believers, especially to track down one of the three main leaders of the malevolent thoughts, Ark.

Evidence shows that Ark is the leader of the fundamentalist sect, the most fanatical Doomsday believer, willing to do anything at all costs.

Ark’s attempts to influence the King’s actions greatly infuriated Lucian, making him feel humiliated and angry, as he furiously searches for traces of the Doomsday believers in the sewers, vowing to dig Ark out.

According to past practices, only four people can be sent out: Qingyu, Peibela, Rod, and Horace.

But just these four are not enough.

There’s not a single monarch-level power, yet they plan to explore the true king’s legacy, which is too dangerous.

At the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.

Chief Defense Dalin suggested, "We can abandon three battles, forcibly recall three special level combatants, but in doing so, we would suffer great losses, the expansion action will be frustrated, and the personnel lost in previous battles would have sacrificed in vain."

The cost is enormous, but considering the importance of the Horror Castle, it might be a necessary sacrifice.

Bossivale also said, "I can delay my work and continue after returning from Horror Castle."

The King slightly frowned, such a loss is substantial; Bossivale’s changes to Trolian’s spiritual cultivation and combat training are immediate, and every delay slows down Trolian’s growth significantly.

"This is also not viable."

Liszt, who had just rushed back from the Dark Great Plain, shook his head.

"Alan must abandon the rescue task and return to the Royal City immediately, without Alan, we cannot explore the Horror Castle."

This statement even made Horace frown.

Alan’s rescue mission is extremely important, although there are not many survivors from Saint Reel, that is only relative to the overall situation. In just these few days, Alan and Olivia have saved over ten thousand people from around Saint Reel, most of whom have ignited the Soul Fire as Fire Holders, at all levels from low to high.

Based on estimates, there are more warriors scattered between Saint Reel and Trolian, making them a valuable human fire spark. Whether from morality or rationality, they should be rescued back to Trolian, maybe among them are future kings.

"Why specifically must Alan return?"

Horace asked.

"We have other special level combatants, the expansion war can be slightly delayed..."

Liszt said in a deep voice, "Because I just decrypted another batch of information, Horror Castle has sunk into the Abyss, right beneath the Royal City. Sigles’ explorer confirmed the location of Horror Castle with prophecy, they have been looking for the Abyss entrance, but unfortunately did not expect it to be beneath the former Giant King City, which at that time was an abandoned ancient city."

Everyone was stunned by this news.

They had been searching for so long, yet didn’t realize Horror Castle was right under their feet.

Liszt continued, "We must enter the Abyss, delve deep into the real Abyss Plane to find the Horror Castle, and without Master Alan’s Abyss Blade, we cannot set foot in the Abyss, the terrifying pollution and abyssal aura will corrupt us."

Horace immediately became nervous, "Will exploring the Horror Castle trigger the Abyss, posing a danger to the Royal City?"

In the Ancient Epoch, the Giants constructed the Trolian Royal City originally to seal the Abyss. Thousands of years have passed, the original Giant seal has long disintegrated, and now the Abyss is sealed by the Silver Oath.

But how effectively the human-built seal suppresses the Abyss, no one dares to confirm.

Bossivale pondered, "Based on our experience, exploring the Abyss will definitely disturb it, this disturbance is chaotic, influenced by many factors, it can infinitely expand, causing Abyss unrest. The Abyss beneath Saint Reel has experienced several such disturbances, which we spent great effort to calm down with the Sea of No Light. I can provide a lot of experience in this area."

However, First Elder Amendo outright objected, "No, we cannot take this risk, the Royal City is our core, the Holy Fire is our foundation, it cannot be allowed any threat."

An Elder said, "Exactly, our forces are insufficient, neither rescue operations nor expansion wars can actually pause."

Another Elder said, "We can prepare this matter, and enter the Abyss only when everything is ready."

Everyone fell silent.

The Elder’s suggestion was undoubtedly a sound and prudent choice, the safest, most secure option.

But the problem is, Horror Castle is related to pure star source and primordial spiritual energy, whose significance cannot be questioned.

Disaster could strike at any moment, and obtaining them sooner is better.

Everyone hesitated, when the Great Prophet Iyeta arrived at the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, bringing a piece of not-so-good news.

"I confirmed, the information Liszt brought back is accurate, neither disrupted nor tampered with, and the White Tower used this information to once again prophecy the location of Horror Castle. It indeed lies within the Abyss, but strangely, its location is moving, becoming farther away from us."

Rod exclaimed in surprise, "Why is the Horror Castle moving?"

Iyeta glanced at Rod, his gaze softening, "The space within the Abyss is chaotic, fragmented, and discontinuous, it continuously devours the Main Material World, with each consumption pressing new space against existing space, causing spatial shifts. Additionally, the real Abyss is constantly evolving, with the Abyss’ outer and derivative layers continuously sinking and eventually merging into the Abyss’ body, also causing spatial shifts."

The King nodded.

"So, if we don’t explore Horror Castle soon, it will become increasingly distant, eventually unreachable?"

Iyeta answered, "Yes, Majesty, the farther we explore in the Abyss, the greater disturbance we cause. If Horror Castle drifts to the deepest part of the Abyss, we will never find it."

"Why is this happening?"

Horace shouted incredulously, "The Horror Castle has been submerged in the Abyss for thousands of years, why didn’t it shift before, only to start moving now?"

Iyeta replied, "Archbishop, I must remind you, the Abyss’ activity is rapidly intensifying, likely influenced by the Source Prophecy’s catastrophe. Even if we don’t explore the Abyss, we need to beware of the Abyss’ disturbance."

Everyone’s faces turned grim, Iyeta’s words gave them a sense of approaching disaster.

The souls, once ignited by the arrival of Saint Reel, quickly cooled down, deeply sensing the crisis approaching.

In an instant, everyone’s hearts leaned towards the First Elder’s suggestion.

But at this moment, the King spoke.

"I have decided, we will explore the Horror Castle."

"Personnel: Qingyu, Peibela, Horace, Rod, set off immediately."
