The Main Star Priest’s withered hand clutched Rod’s throat, and the intense spiritual energy made it impossible for him to breathe.
He tried to struggle, but the Main Star Priest’s hand was as immovable as steel.
Rod knew sothing was wrong; his Resurrection Stone was already used up, and he hadn’t had the chance to acquire a new one. He needed to use another card in his hand.
In a flash of thought, the "Undying Spirit" appeared in his palm.
But before he could use it, the Main Star Priest suddenly released him.
"Captain Eric, you’re finally here."
A twisted, muddled voice emanated from his mouth.
"Let us fight side by side. The Great Star Defense Line is broken, the stars are dimd, and the strangeness hidden within the Source Black Fog is eroding our kingdom. My eyes are blind, and without a companion, I hope you can beco the starlight to guide my sword."
The change was so sudden that Rod couldn’t react for a mont.
The Main Star Priest’s magic wand had already been raised, collapsing space with super gravity, twisting light all around them.
Boundless spiritual energy gathered at the tip of the magic wand, and the terrifying power it pointed in any direction would only bring destruction.
Rod regained his composure at lightning speed.
For so unknown reason, the Main Star Priest mistook him for "Captain Eric."
He might be the leader of the Fighting Star Knight Order, who died fighting unspeakable horrors in Death’s Trace Canyon.
The Fighting Star Knight Order also perished there.
Rod found the captain’s corpse, killed the lingering wraiths in the canyon, and destroyed the twisted dark phenonon caused by the demi divine artifact’s corruption, thus obtaining an unknown small orb and the blessing of a wraith from the past.
Perhaps it was this blessing that imbued him with the aura of the captain of the Fighting Star Knight Order, causing the chaotic Main Star Priest to mistake him for an old comrade.
Complex thoughts flashed by in an instant, and Rod imdiately reacted.
"Over there!"
Rod deliberately switched to the Starry language, mimicking the tone and cadence of the captain of the Fighting Star Knight Order.
When he killed the wraith, Rod had heard his voice and seen the mories of past days.
He was also very good at imitation, and this voice was at least ninety percent similar.
The Main Star Priest’s blurred face instantly turned in the direction Rod pointed, and the deep purple wand made of Pure Star Marrow was pressed down.
"Great Wild Star Fall!"
The terrifying spiritual energy roared throughout Starry Sky City.
In an instant, the teors in the sky changed direction, hurtling towards the massive dark mass approaching from afar.
Is this even possible?
Rod’s eyes widened, his heart pounding wildly.
It actually worked?
In an instant, he realized this was an excellent opportunity.
The recent massive disturbance had spread throughout Starry Sky City, and in mid-air, Rod could clearly see through the Eye of the Soul, the darkness surging in from all directions like a tide.
Especially behind them, the Black Water had already overflowed into the areas they had crossed, spreading towards the Big Lake.
And in the depths of the Black Water, an even deeper darkness was expanding.
Without a doubt, that was the Source Black Fog, the original black fog.
It covered the ashes of monster remains, covered the still-evaporating fragnts of corpses, and thus, the slain monsters rose again within this fog, rapidly transforming into Black Fog Symbionts.
Amidst the black tide were countless such Black Fog Symbionts.
The newly erged Black Fog Symbionts, though not as strong, were overwhelming in number.
From other directions, disturbed by the imnse upheaval from the reversal of the Silence Stone, swarming groups of wandering monsters approached, joined by powerful Black Fog Symbionts from other areas rushing towards this place.
The crisis was quietly closing in, and if Rod weren’t in the air, he wouldn’t have seen this far.
Their situation was actually far more perilous than imagined.
And now, this was a perfect chance.
Rod decisively pointed backward, and the Main Star Priest also resolutely launched the attack.
The Fire teor seed far away, but in reality, it only took a few seconds to hit the ground.
A teor crashed into the center of the black tide, Black Water splashing hundreds of yards high, extinguishing and devouring the Fire teor.
But the next mont, countless teors fell, the entire Starry Sky City trembled, Black Water shot skyward, and monsters were shattered into pieces amidst wails, rising black dust almost shrouded half the sky.
When the teor shower ended, the Black Water vanished without a trace, the Source Black Fog retreated by several thousand yards, the ground littered with monster remnants and fragnts, and black dust rose everywhere, while the ground, solidified by spiritual energy, was pitted with countless craters.
This bizarre change stunned everyone.
No one could clearly understand what had happened above; under the super gravity field, the shining spiritual light obscured everything.
Luo Weiya, Jelaba, and Olivia exchanged glances.
The three of them tacitly refrained from raising their spiritual energy, maintaining a state of silence.
Horus used the Silence Stone to firmly enclose everyone within the silence field, minimizing disturbance.
In the sky.
The Main Star Priest spoke again.
"Captain Eric, the Starry Kingdom is in peril, we are the last of humanity, bearing the hope of rekindling the fire of civilization, we absolutely cannot fail... The strange existence beyond Godoyin Sacred Mountain cannot extinguish the starlight. Tell the enemy’s direction, even if I’m the only one left, I will keep the black fog outside Starry Sky City!"
