Chapter 22 Beginning to Accommodate
Bang dang!
The doors and windows of places such as Beckland, Trier, Remburg and St. Milon closed at the same time and closed tightly without the wind blowing.
The headquarters of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, in a tall white tower.
Luca, who was in charge of the underground area, felt the unusual movement and jerked to his feet.
As a "prophet", he was keenly aware of what was happening.
The old man, dressed in a plain white robe inlaid with brass threads, immediately used secret techniques, stepped to the entrance of the underground area, and stretched out his hand to push the door.
However, the gate, which was not heavy for a demigod, did not move at this moment, as if it had been sealed by an invisible force.
Luca Brewster didn't force any attempts, and instead set his sights on the depths of the earth.
It was silent, and not a sound was heard.
This is not normal...... Lukka didn't need to rely on his extraordinary abilities to tell that something was wrong.
In normal times, there would always be a sound in the deepest part of the earth that made the hair stand on end and chills down the spine, but now, it disappeared as if it had never appeared.
Others may not know, but Luca, as a high-ranking member of the Church of Knowledge, knew that the voice came from an extremely terrifying seal, and even he did not know the specific situation, and it could not be erased out of thin air.
The current situation can only tell one thing:
Either the seal has been freed from its restrictions and turned into a more eerie state, or it has been sealed further and can no longer exert any influence on the outside world.
Either way, it means that there is extreme danger lurking around, because the seal is numbered:
“0—01”!
At the top of the remaining bell tower of Byam, the glow on Amun's monocle faded and returned to normal.
The "wrong" gentleman has just unabashedly demonstrated his newfound extraordinary abilities, revealing a fact to all who are watching his existence:
He has accommodated the uniqueness of the "door" and obtained the corresponding authority!
He has just used this to close everything in the world that has to do with the concept of "doors", and to maximize the effect of the closure.
As a result, items in the Orthodox Church and the Hidden Order that are sealed cannot be used for a short period of time, as no one can break the seal.
Even if a true god descends from the astral plane, it may take a certain amount of time to break the limit.
As a result, Amon excluded most of the "0" level seals from the possible future god wars, and no longer had to consider the corresponding interference.
Of course, this kind of use of power to exert influence on the whole world will not last long, unless Mr. "Wrong" Amon focuses all his energy on this matter, and because of this, he did not do it in advance, and only suddenly activated it when he observed that Crane's anchor was disturbed.
- The more powerful the "0" level seal, the more terrifying the negative effects are, and even more so those that can affect the level of the gods, even the true gods of sequence 0 may not be able to withstand it for too long, so the true gods will not use it and will not break the seal, otherwise it will bring greater interference to them themselves, and the harvest will not make up for the loss.
After doing this, Amon propped up his palm, jumped up slightly, and sat down on the railing at the top of the bell tower without the image of a true god.
He looked at the horizon and waited leisurely for the secrecy to be lifted, and Crane's ritual of accommodating the uniqueness of the "Fool" officially began.
When the time comes, He will sound the death knell for the other person.
............
The hidden world of the "Goddess of the Night".
Under the repeated impact of the revival will of "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" and the self-awareness and spiritual imprint of Antigonus, Klein's consciousness is like a sailboat in a storm, sometimes thrown high, sometimes photographed, sometimes eroded, and sometimes pushed horizontally.
This caused his mind to become extremely confused, and he almost split into two different personalities, the personalities of Antigonus and the "Lord of Mysteries".
At the same time, his doppelganger has also lost his mind, and is in a state of collapse into a worm vortex, except for the secret puppet, who is simply unmanipulated and standing in place.
Prayers and praises from the believers echoed in Klein's ears, forming a corresponding cognitive image.
It's like a, struggling to resist the raging floods.
Klein was not too unfamiliar with such a situation, becoming a "secret attendant", and after swallowing the extraordinary characteristics related to Zarathu, he had a similar experience, so just after getting through the initial chaos with the help of the anchor, he was quite skilled in directing Antigonus's self-awareness and spiritual imprint to the will to revive the "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun", so that the two eroded and entangled each other.
The raging "mental storm" weakened a lot, and Crane's self-consciousness finally got a respite.
Before he could calm down, he immediately introduced the image of the gods formed by the many anchors into the entanglement of two spiritual pollutions, trying to find a new balance.
But this did not go well, compared to the previous time, the essence, resilience, and madness of Antigonus's spiritual imprint were significantly stronger than those of Zarathu, after all, this was a king of angels who contained the uniqueness and was called half a "fool".
Moreover, Klein also stole the identity and fate of the other party. This brings two other bad effects:
His personality is always on the verge of splitting, he sometimes thinks that he is Antigonus, trying to merge the other person's mental imprint with his own mind, and he inherits the fate of Antigonus's uncontrollable madness, and his whole body is irrepressibly collapsing, which brings more, a lot of mental pollution.
In addition, the spiritual imprint of Antigonus and the will to revive the "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" are not completely incompatible, they show signs of integration in some aspects of the local "battlefield", and they seem to originate from the same existence.
This preliminarily confirmed one of Klein's guesses, that is, as a natural mythical creature, Antigonus was born with a certain "Heavenly Venerable" will, and when he was promoted to the "Secret Attendant", this problem suddenly became serious, causing him to have an unconscious mutation. To the point where He accommodates the uniqueness of the "Fool", madness seems to have directly become a certain aspect of Him.
In other words, Antigonus before he was completely out of control was already a certain degree of stitching monster mentally, and his self-awareness and spiritual imprint partially belonged to the "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun", and this could not be separated in the "stealing".
Compared with him, Zarathu's spiritual imprint is much cleaner, and only a small part belongs to the "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun", most of which come from Zarathu's strong emotions before his death.
The reason why the two are different is that Antigonus has the uniqueness of accommodating the "fool", but also because the former became a "mysterious attendant" at the beginning of the Quaternary Period, when the will of the "Heavenly Venerable" had not yet weakened to the extent of the late Fifth Age.
A new equilibrium could not be formed, and Crane was collapsing faster and faster: most of his body was made up of transparent and twisted worms, and slick tentacles stretched out around him.
As he struggled to maintain self-awareness and search for a new balance without giving up, his collapsed body, Antigonus's crazy spirit, and the will to revive the Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun fell into a deep sleep at the same time.
This brought all the changes to an abrupt halt and returned to normal.
And Klein's self-consciousness maintained a trace of lucidity in such a deep sleep by virtue of its own special ability to resist dreams and the invasion of the mind.
This, yes, what I stole was not only the fate of Antigonus' out-of-control madness, but also the fate of his present eternal sleep...... And I myself can fight against eternal sleep to a certain extent...... Klein grasped the sobriety and gained some awareness of the current state.
For him, this is an opportunity.
It was only at this time that he fully understood why the "Goddess of the Night" needed the water of the "River of Eternal Darkness" as a medium to try this.
This is not only because it is difficult to temporarily put into eternal sleep the will of a one-man angel king and the awakened "Lord of Mysteries" within him, but also because the state of eternal sleep is good for Crane, which can create an excellent environment in which only a trace of his will can be activated, and all other disturbances can be put to sleep!
At the same time, Klein also confirmed one thing:
The fact that he was able to stay awake when his dreams and mind were invaded was not all due to the special brought by the "Source Castle", because the "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" in his body was also asleep at this moment.
Although the degree of recovery of this "Lord of Mysteries" is still very limited, his personhood and connection to the "Source Castle" are undoubtedly stronger than the current Klein, and he cannot fully resist the erosion of eternal sleep, why can Crane?
Therefore, Klein believes that his special in this regard should be partly due to the blessing of the "goddess of the night", which is a gift he received when he was born.
The blessings given by the true gods who hold part of the authority in the dream realm are combined with the additional breath, power, and supernatural powers of the "Source Castle" to form such a special one!
As if a soft song came from the depths of a dream, Klein's consciousness deepened.
He didn't hesitate, and immediately adjusted the sleeping imprint and pollution in his body, and found a new balance.
Immediately afterward, he extended a series of slippery tentacles with strange patterns, mobilized the power of the "Source Castle", and stole the uniqueness of the "Fool" in Antigonus's body through the air.
Perhaps because he is Antigonus now, this theft was successful without a few failures:
A translucent mask inscribed with the symbol "Fool" flew out of Antigonus's body!
The man with his thick black face was still asleep, as if he were sleeping forever.
At the same time, the misty fog dissipated, and illusory starlight entered the hall.
This ancient palace suddenly appeared in the dark and mysterious astral plane, on the summit of the main peak of the Hornachis Mountains.
The secrecy is lifted, and fate begins to interact.
At this time, in the land of God's forsaken, on a certain mountain peak, on the surface of a huge cross, a curtain of shadows that seemed to be nothingness emerged, cracked the crack, and a man came out of it.
He was Adam, dressed in a simple white robe and with a thick golden beard, and behind him was a thick shadow with five heads.
The shadow is partially blended with Him, but not yet fully integrated.
Adam looked up at the astral plane distorted by authority and symbolism, and said to the shadow behind him with a peaceful smile:
"They don't seem to know why I'm going to be a 'visionary' this time.
"I've never told anyone about this research. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he said with a solemn expression:
"I am one and ten thousand, the beginning and the end. ”
His eyes suddenly became illusory, and around him appeared a sea that seemed to encompass all colors and all possibilities.
Adam then lifted his hand and grasped the silver cross pendant hanging from his chest.
Above his head, a blazing but illusory sun suddenly leaped out, and to his left, the symbols of lightning, wind, and waves intertwined into a virtual shadow looking down on all things, and to his right, a tall white tower with many brass eyes rose from the ground.
One by one, these imaginary powers and symbols were thrown into Adam's body, driven by the sea of chaos.
Eventually, the shadow that clinged to Adam's back shrank into his body.
Suddenly, the sea, which contained all colors and possibilities, rose up, and Adam swelled into a huge light and shadow that seemed to support heaven and earth.
This light and shadow slowly walked on the chaotic and black "water", raised his hand and pointed to the astral boundary, and solemnly declared:
"Let there be light!"
In an instant, the entire astral realm lit up, and there was no longer any secret to hide, even the invisible barrier that separated part of the planetary boundary corresponding to the earth from the complete astral boundary and the entire universe was highlighted.
At this moment, the terrifying giant faces that could not be described in detail were sticking to the transparent, cracked barrier, silently watching the changes in the scene inside.
