The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 843 - 461: Assassination of the Queen
Chapter 843: Chapter 461: Assassination of the Queen
Although Rod vehemently denied having much to do with sewers, the Trolian Royal City’s sewer was different from the Starry Sky City’s sewer. Just because he was at ease in the Royal City’s sewer didn’t mean he could navigate the Starry Sky City’s sewer with equal ease. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
However, no one present had experience with sewers. They almost reached genius status the moment they completed the Fire Trial, and had been under such attention that they’d never ventured into sewers.
Ultimately, Rod had no choice but to act as the guide and temporary leader.
Luo Weiya said to the three around him, "We can totally trust this little guy. He always brings surprises at the most unexpected moments."
Olivia looked at him curiously, "A barbarian, I never thought you’d recognize him."
Luo Weiya’s face darkened, "Fat... Olivia, I don’t want to argue at this moment. I just want to tell you that although he’s young and inexperienced, he’s trustworthy."
Olivia smiled faintly, "You don’t need to say that. Being Soron’s student, I already know whether he’s reliable or not."
Luo Weiya was surprised, "He’s Soron’s student?"
"Yes, Soron said he’s exceptionally talented, resolute, with a pure mind. The Fire Spark is odd but very strong, and his actions are sometimes exaggerated but have their own logic. Aside from being lecherous and peeking at women bathing, he has no other flaws. But... I feel little Rod isn’t like that. Judging by his appearance, he seems more like a pure, simple, shy young boy."
Luo Weiya’s expression was a bit odd; he wouldn’t describe Rod as pure and shy.
In Star Ring Town, he was quite close to the Spiritual Woman Group’s Jessica. Jessica was one of the most beautiful among them, with not only a stunning face but a top-notch figure. When they rubbed shoulders, he didn’t seem shy.
But personal conduct isn’t the point. As long as his consciousness as a human is strong, what’s important is his ability, potential, and whether he can take a step further.
Now it seems that aside from a few slip-ups at the Main Brain, everything else is flawless.
"Alan has also mentioned him multiple times," added Luo Weiya, "saying his potential is strong."
Jelaba wiped his hammer, "Anyone valued by Alan must be trustworthy."
All three expressed their opinions. Only the Fire Son known as the Thunder King remained silent.
She walked beside them in silence, her entire body shrouded in a white fog of spiritual energy.
Luo Weiya didn’t inquire further; Misha was a very special Fire Son and couldn’t communicate unless necessary.
If not for the battle for Starry Sky City, she wouldn’t be here.

The entrance to the Starry Sky City’s sewer was about six thousand yards to the south.
Calling it an entrance was an understatement; it was a large pit, something had punched through the ground, exposing the sewer below.
Under Rod’s guidance, more than a hundred of them entered the sewer.
Though reluctant to admit it, when he returned to this dark, narrow environment, a familiar ease surged within him, even though he had no idea of the layout of the Starry Sky City sewer.
The Investigation Legion, while investigating Starry Sky City, did not dare to enter. They only listened and detected minute spiritual energy fluctuations inside the city from a distance using special means to infer the specifics.
However, this detection method had significant errors and too many possibilities. Many situations needed to be seen with their own eyes to confirm, which is why the Legion Commander Liszt accompanied them.
But the sewer’s internal routes were utterly unknown. Inanimate objects didn’t fluctuate with spiritual energy. The high-rank investigators feared that rash entry would prematurely trigger unknown entities and lead to unforeseeable consequences, so they didn’t enter. They only roughly deduced that there weren’t many active monsters inside and that it wasn’t as deep or large.
It was completely different from the Trolian Royal City’s sewer.
Rod found this inexplicable at first but soon came to understand. The Trolian Royal City was established during the Ancient Epoch of the Giant Royal Court, flourishing, and declining multiple times until it was conquered by King Troli.
With countless ages of sedimentation, the hidden unknowns naturally increased.
The sewer leading to the Abyss wasn’t built by humans, but by Giant King Omir, perhaps intending to conquer the Abyss to subdue the Black Fog.
The Starry Sky City, however, was likely a human-built royal city, naturally not having a sewer maze as vast as the giants’.
Upon realizing this, Rod felt a bit reassured and boldly led the way inside.
Four Special Level Combatants followed closely behind, followed by the Archbishop, Great Priest, Guardian, First Level Combatants, and those with First Level Combat Power.
The Starry Sky City sewer had been dry for a thousand years, leaving only dust and dirt.
The passageways weren’t as wide as the Trolian Royal City’s sewer, but they were very complicated.
While Rod didn’t have a map of the Starry Sky City’s sewer, he had thoroughly studied the Royal City’s sewer, having a clear understanding of the construction logic, mode, and specifications of sewers.
The inhabitants of Starry Sky City were also humans. Giants were just larger humans, and after the epoch of gods was over, Trolian Royal City was also inhabited by humans.
As long as they were human, there was no reason their waste would be different. The logic was the same.
