The Dark King
chapter-924

The night was getting darker and the moon was covered by dark clouds.

After the curfew of nine o’clock the traffic on the streets of the imperial city decreased. Some of the bars and small shops were closed. The curtains were drawn and the doors were closed. The Shadows covered the earth.

There was an oil lamp in the research room behind the temple. The light reflected on the side of Dudian’s face. The three of them stood next to him and carefully waited on him, they didn’t dare to look around or make any sound.

The sound of the pages flipping echoed from Dudian’s fingertips. There were a lot of books scattered under Dudian’s feet. They were all top secret information. Some of them were sketched with patterns, it was shocking.

“Split… Hatch… Aragami Research…”

Dudian’s eyes were filled with shock. He wanted to explore the secret of the legendary soul worm but he didn’t expect that it would involve the Aragami. He didn’t expect that such a sensational experiment would be carried out inside the giant wall.

These experimental data had confirmed his guess. The so-called temple was the monster research institute in Sylvia. It was wrapped in a layer of ‘God’mystery but the essence was unchanged. However, the experiments carried out by the Monster Research Institute were far more terrifying than the experiments carried out by the Monster Research Institute in Sylvia. The Aragami guarding the giant wall was used as experimental material!

Dudian had never been to the Kingdom of God but he knew that the Aragami were inviolable! The monster research institute was obviously “Against the rules”. It was estimated that even the Kingdom of God didn’t know about these experiments! Otherwise, there was no reason for Sylvia’s research institute not to study the mysterious Aragami. It was a precious experimental material that contained endless secrets!

The wind pushed the dark clouds and the bright moonlight once again shone on the quiet sky of the imperial city.

The pages of the book were flipped over from Dudian’s fingertips. His eyes slightly shook as the speculations in his heart slowly became clear, “The research of the Aragami has violated the rules. It has created a large number of pioneers and even rulers. It has used the temple to establish faith. It has used the struggle of the nobles to control the nobles. The manager of the Monster Research Institute… does he want to leave the Kingdom of God? !”

He had secretly cultivated the strong in order to grasp the power of the ‘God’!

He could feel the surging ambition and desire behind the ‘God’that was repeatedly mentioned in the top secret information!

Phisenia’s words echoed in his ears. The Seven Kings were the most powerful human beings and were the closest to the edge of God. However… Even the seven kings couldn’t compete with the omniscient and omnipotent God!

Once he mastered the god power, he would be able to cross the ‘Abyss’and ‘King’and directly become a god!

Was there really a God in this world?

There was no doubt that there was no god in Dudian’s knowledge.

So in his eyes, the person behind the temple was a complete lunatic!

He hadn’t seen the complete picture of the temple. All the veins, including the blood hidden in the dark, clearly appeared in front of him that night! If the temple was a beautiful woman, Dudian wouldn’t have seen the beautiful woman’s clothes. But at this moment, he saw the bones, blood vessels under the beautiful woman’s skin,..!

“The legendary parasitic soul worm was split and used the flesh and blood of the Aragami to grow into a brand new parasitic soul worm. It inherited the previous ability but didn’t need to devour other similar soul worms to reach the Overlord Realm!”Dudian’s doubts were all solved, at the same time, he corrected his previous cognitive error from Sylvia.

According to this top-secret information, the “Deification”in his knowledge was not true deification, but “Assimilation”!

After devouring a certain number of soul worms of the same type, the assimilation would be completed. The assimilated soul worms’abilities in all aspects would be strengthened. At the same time, they would trigger the hidden power in their genes and obtain new abilities!

Completing the assimilation of Magic Marks was the first step to becoming a ruler!

Sylvia’s Dragon Mother, Wing King and the rest were all stuck at this step!

However, the deification that was defined in this top-secret information was actually these soul worms that they were selling! These soul worms were a part of the original body. After the Aragami factor extracted from the Aragami’s flesh and blood was mixed together, they would gain greater accommodation and potential. This also allowed all those who bought these Soul Worms to.., they did not need to repeatedly buy the same type of soul worms to devour them. They could directly break through to the ruler realm.

However, this was not a decision. According to the top-secret records, this deified soul worm experiment was not mature yet. Some soul worms were only semi-deified. They still needed to absorb the same type of soul worms to assimilate and grow stronger before they could break through the ruler realm’s bottleneck.

From the records of the top-secret Records, this soul worm splitting experiment was extremely complicated. The failure rate was very high. However, even so, a parasitic soul worm could still split into hundreds of soul worms, these split soul worms originally did not have the ability to act as magic marks. They were like puppets, or even a piece of unconscious meat. However, after mixing the Aragami factor, these split soul worms were ‘alive’.

However, although these ‘alive’soul worms had the same appearance and ability as the original soul worms when they were implanted with magic marks, and they could directly help others become rulers when they had sufficient resources, but.., they couldn’t fuse with the Polar Ice Worms! In other words, the “Deified soul worms”could only reach the level of masters and couldn’t step into the ranks of Abyss Walkers!

According to the experiment, the Aragami factor and the polar ice worms were repelling each other. It was difficult to fuse with them which also caused the experiment to be stuck at a bottleneck!

However, from the recent experiments, it seemed that the temple was trying to crack this bottleneck. It wanted to find a way to balance the Aragami factor and the polar ice worms. However, there was no good direction at the moment.

Dudian knew that once the method was found, it meant that the temple could mass produce abyss!

If there was enough abyss, even if there was a one in ten thousand chance, there would be a king or even a god!

This might be the ambition of the temple.

PA!

Dudian closed the data and looked at the ceiling. He slowly closed his eyes and opened them after a long time. He sighed in his heart: “Technology is really… changing life…”

The corner of his mouth twitched. The poor relied on mutation while the rich relied on technology.

If the experiment was completed then the temple would step into the peak of the Kingdom of God. Even if the temple couldn’t create a large number of abysses at the moment. Any middle level abyss would be able to flatten the temple, even the Master of the Abyss would have to bow down to them!

The three looked at each other in confusion. The master whispered: “My Lord, do you have any orders?”

Dudian looked at him. The three of them felt goosebumps all over their bodies. Dudian moved his eyes away and pondered for a moment: “Tell me about the defense and location of the temple headquarters.”

Although he had gained a lot from the temple but there were many pieces of top secret information. He was interested in the research on the Aragami. Through the experiment of the deified soul worm he thought about the changes in his body. Although he didn’t rely on the special machine in the temple to inject the flesh of the Aragami into his body but it was ‘alive’, moreover his right arm didn’t seem to have any electricity. Fortunately, he didn’t have any conflict with the polar ice worm. He didn’t know if his condition was deified or not?

If so, his magic marks should be at the same level as the deified ones?

However, he thought about the danger of the flesh of the Aragami. He would rather get rid of the deified power and destroy it from his body!

Hearing Dudian’s words, the three of them froze as cold sweat poured out of their faces. Did he tell them the location of the headquarters? And the defensive power? This was the rhythm of preparing to attack the headquarters! If Dudian wanted to sneak into the headquarters to prevent them from snitching, how could he leave them alive?

“This, this…”master’s face was full of embarrassment but his body was secretly storing power. He was ready to fight to the death.

Dudian glanced at the three of them: “Why? Are you worried that I will silence you? Yes, I do have such a plan. But now I have changed my mind!”

“Huh?”The three of them relaxed as they looked at dudian.

Dudian raised a finger, “I will kill two of them and leave one behind. Although it is a bit risky for me but I think the people who stay should know the consequences if they go to the headquarters to inform on me. Moreover you have survived such a big incident. The headquarters might not believe you if you inform on me. So I will leave one smart one behind. Well, I will leave the one who answers the fastest.”

The three of them were startled when they heard Dudian’s words. The woman in her early thirties reacted the fastest: “I know that the headquarters is located in the western suburbs of the royal city…”

The other two reacted: “I know too!”

If Dudian gave them time, they wouldn’t say anything. Perhaps they would be able to save their lives. But Dudian didn’t give them time to think, in particular, the long-haired woman was the first to speak. They didn’t want to think about other things. They only wanted Dudian to choose them!

At this moment, they weren’t revealing their human nature. Human Nature wasn’t so cheap. They were only showing the desire to survive that any living creature had. They were defending the temple together, at this moment, they had become the only enemy who had taken away their only chance to survive!

“Sir, you chose me! I’m stronger than them, and I know more than them. I’ve been to the headquarters, and I’ve been there a few times. They’ve only been there two or three times, they can’t be compared to me!”The middle-aged ruler in his forties hurriedly said.

Hearing this, the hearts of the two people beside him instantly turned cold. Immediately after, their eyes flickered with intense unwillingness and resentment, the long-haired woman gritted her teeth and said, “Sir, I was the one who spoke first. I spoke first. Although we haven’t been to as many places as he has, I’ve been to more places than he has. Moreover, the headquarters doesn’t allow us to move around casually. He might not know as much as we do. I know a minister in the headquarters, I…”

“I know a minister and several of them. I know more than them. I also know the underground structure of the headquarters…”

The middle-aged man was angry and angry. He opened his mouth to speak to Dudian but Dudian raised his hand to interrupt him. He pointed at the long-haired woman: “Tell me who is the most comprehensive one.”

The long-haired woman was relieved. She quickly spoke out what she knew.

Ten minutes later.

Dudian listened to the statements of the three and asked: “Does anyone have anything to add?”His eyes looked at the three of them. The meaning was obvious.

The three of them were stiff. They opened their mouths but had nothing to say.

Dudian sighed: “Then you can go.”

The three of them stared at him: “Didn’t you say…”

Puff!

A shadow flashed and a head flew out.

The long-haired woman and the scar-faced middle-aged man were frightened. They turned around and ran away. However two sharp blades shot out from Dudian’s back. They pierced through his chest. In the blink of an eye, three bodies fell to the ground.

“How naive. There are no outsiders here. Even if I go back on my word, who would know?”Dudian gently shook his head. It was not wise for him to take risks for the sake of his promise, a Promise was a lie. The value of a lie was to create value for oneself and not to bring risks. This was his understanding along the way.

He would only keep a promise to a person.

After leaving the temple, Dudian looked at the night sky. It was only early in the morning. There were still four to five hours before dawn. It was enough for him to explore the temple headquarters.

“Barker should know something about the temple. Even birds of the same feather would cover each other. The temple has brought too many pioneers to the temple. It has even given birth to two abysses, Holaney and Monica. The family behind them should know the secret of the deified soul worm. So they didn’t take the deified soul worm into the temple. Instead, they took the complete soul worm from the beginning…”

Dudian’s figure flashed through the streets as he rushed towards the temple’s headquarters.

He was too lazy to consider how long it would take for the matter of the branch to be exposed and spread to the headquarters.

Although the temple had given him a big surprise, but from the top-secret information, the temple didn’t have the ability to create an abyss. Even if they had hidden cards, it would be one or two abysses.

Dudian didn’t care if it was one or two abysses. Moreover, he didn’t think that there would be two. After all, Barker wouldn’t dare to leave the temple.

Whoosh!

Dudian quickly found the temple’s headquarters in the western suburbs and sneaked in through the side fence.

“Although I know the distribution of the defensive forces here, but my ability to sneak in is likely to cause trouble…”Dudian sneaked through the garden, he avoided many traps and hidden sentries in the garden. He prayed that he wouldn’t be discovered.
