Chapter 316: Chapter 224: Sorrow of the Holy Fire_3

Rod couldn’t help but ask, "And those three traits?"

Horus’s expression darkened.

"In history, those with three Soul Traits ultimately fell into darkness and became the terrifying King of Darkness."

Suddenly, he looked doubtful.

"Do you know Mephit? What did she tell you?"

Rod hesitated for a moment, but still said, "She said you believe she is the prophesied Son of Destruction, but I don’t quite believe it. I’ve already arranged for her to be my first partner in this expedition."

Horus’s hardened face cracked like dry wood.

"What did you say?"

He roared, spraying Rod’s face with spittle.

"I will never allow it! How can you two be mixed together? The most dangerous of the Silver Oath must never leave my sight..."

Wang soothed, "Calm down, little Horus, why don’t we do a dance first?"

Horus turned his face and roared in the same tone, "Iedlo! Act a bit more like a king!"

The King coughed, straightening his body.

A robe of flames flew from the Holy Fire and draped over him, making him appear much more majestic.

He continued.

"After quantification is completed, you will possess a Source."

Rod asked, "What about the monsters?"

"Except for those beings that are corrupted and fallen, other monsters are born from the contaminated Source Law."

Horus said, "According to different Source Laws, they are divided into five major categories: Demon, Ghost Spirit, Born, Cursed, Abnormal Demon, plus the Fallen, Contaminated, and Corpse Ghosts formed from decaying bodies—eight categories in total."

"Monsters are different from humans. They cannot enhance their traits, thus they cannot obtain a Source."

"Apart from what they carry inherently, they can only acquire it by devouring other spirits or Source Material."

Horus’s expression became stern.

"Rod, you must be careful, any monster that possesses a Source is extremely dangerous, the more they have, the more dangerous they become."

Rod quickly asked, "How can I determine that?"

Horus said gravely, "Your Spiritual Vision can see, monsters’ souls that appear with dark ripples, unlit states, or Black Domain status, all possess a Source."

"Especially those above the Strong Level, you must be cautious."

Rod nodded slightly.

Strong Level is a very powerful category of monsters, not in the same class as the previous Grey Level, Ungraded, Mature Level, and Fierce Level.

The Abyss Serpent and the Corrupted Demon Dragon both belong to Strong Monsters.

"Considering your lack of experience, I have appointed Molly as your assistant."

"She is the best coordinator of the Military War Department and can assist you in handling many matters."

"Not just that, Molly also possesses a very firm faith, willing to sacrifice everything for the fire, such a woman is an excellent partner..."

The King coughed to interrupt Horus’s untimely sermon.

"Back to the main topic, Source Law is nearly infinite, containing countless rules, hence our traits are also different."

"But in summary, they are all included within 107 domains."

"Among them, the three domains known as the pillars of the world are time, space, and vitality."

"These are the three Primordial Laws of Source, originally one whole but now shattered, scattered across the Sea of Source."

The King paused for a moment, finally getting to the main point.

"And the Guardian Fire is rooted in the Sea of Source, existing above these three pillar domains."

"The stronger the Guardian Fire, the more Source it needs, otherwise its power and Source will deplete."

"The extremely powerful Holy Fire, because we have added a large amount of Fuel Element and Firewood, its power has far surpassed its Source, and the structure of the Firewood is collapsing, making the Holy Fire irregular and unstable, only maintained by my power."

"There are only two solutions, obtain another Holy Fire Seed."

The King looked at Rod seriously, word by word.

"Reduce the reach of the Holy Fire, forsaking the lives of thirty million people in the Outer City District."

An unspeakable silence enveloped the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.

It took Rod a long while to come to his senses, he exclaimed,

"You mean, the elders of the Supreme Council would choose the second option?"
