Chapter 519: It's really weird
814
"Where is my brother Klein Moretti?"
Klein's heart suddenly beat violently, his emotions fluctuated violently, and even his body with Bethel involuntarily made a "swallowing saliva" movement.
There was no response, and after a moment, a rustling murmur, Crane heard the familiar voice chanting words like "Companion of the Knowledge and Spirit Realm" and "Deliverer of Silver City and Moon City".
This should be the honorific name that the God of Thunder wrote to him, combined with his miracle master ceremony, the first two sentences delineate the scope of this honorific name between the demon of knowledge and him, and the last sentence directly writes his real name and sequence...... The prayers Klein heard now were mainly addressed to the "Poseidon" and the "Fool", and when he heard his name directly from Benson's prayer, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
Once again, Crane's gaze fell on the white mask in front of him.
At this moment, both the god of war and Bethel disappeared from Crane's eyes, and the uniqueness of the faceless white mask floating in mid-air, the 'Fool', firmly attracted his full attention as if it were alive, and he couldn't take his eyes off it at all.
"Gaining uniqueness, I am equivalent to gaining power......"
"After gaining divinity, I will also restrain myself from harming Benson and Melissa, under this premise, whether it is ignoring or other actions, it is better than acting under the nose of the god of thunder!"
"Antigonus was able to influence all the 'Fortune Teller' path items just by using the Extraordinary Convergence, and if I had 'Uniqueness', I should be able to do something similar. This way, I can get stronger in a short period of time......"
His mind seemed to have been withdrawn from the current chaotic battle, Antigonus's faint roar could not attract his attention, and Bethel's reminder and the rebuke of the god of war seemed to come from far away, and it was not clear at all. Klein's heart was racing, and what made his heart beat even more was that Bethel still didn't seem to notice the uniqueness of the "Fool."
"Antigonus couldn't defeat the god of war in the first place, his characteristics belong to me, and I helped him fulfill his last wish, which is perfect!"
"Bethel can't be given the first step to uniqueness! Otherwise, I will be completely expelled from the competition of the Lord of Mysteries! ”
An indescribable impulse instantly took over Klein's thoughts, making him want to rush straight up and put the white mask with no facial features on his face. In the midst of this lightning and flint, it seemed that all the predicaments and sufferings in front of him suddenly had a solution, and it was the only solution—that is, to immediately start to obtain the uniqueness of Antigonus, and then become a mysterious attendant.
Then Klein gained divinity and power!
The Divinity was able to help him respond to Benson and Melissa perfectly, proving that he was not Klein Moretti, they were of no use in shaking himself, and that the power would allow him to take one step further and become the King of Angels, getting closer to the position of the Sequence 0 "Fool" faster.
Crane dared to think and dare to do it, he directly began to sketch in his mind the "return technique" given to him by the demon of knowledge, as long as he completely sketched these continuous patterns in his mind through meditation, he could return his spirit to his true body.
According to his current concept, as long as he goes back immediately, and then seeks the help of the demon of knowledge, and re-enters this spiritual realm area that has been wrapped in disordered space, he can directly contact and snatch the uniqueness of the "fool". Although the ceremony of promoting the "Secret Attendant" has not been completed, it is not to be lost, now is the best opportunity for him to gain great power at one time, and the demon of knowledge will definitely also-
"What are you thinking?"
At this time, Bethel finally noticed Klein's messy mood. Crane was not a person in his heart who would let his mood fluctuate so much, and even be a little emotional, his chaotic and complicated heart still caught Bethel's attention.
And most importantly, Bethel found that his body always wanted to be close to the god of war, close to Antigonus, which was certainly not his own idea - he would rather stand 800 miles away and throw "records" by flying kites, and incarnate a god-level surface-to-air missile launch base until the god of war was blown up - then this can only be Klein's idea, but why should he take the initiative to get close to the enemy?
Bethel's questioning was like a basin of cold water poured on his head, abruptly interrupting Klein's ramblings and pulling him out of his abnormal fanaticism and paranoia about the uniqueness of the "fool".
"Me? I just ........."
Klein paused, and suddenly found that Benson's prayer in his ear had become much clearer, and his mind seemed to have become clear as if a cloud had been removed.
Thinking about it again, Crane suddenly became afraid.
"Where did I get the confidence just now, that I actually felt that I could take away his uniqueness in front of the god of war and Antigonus?"
"Where did I get the confidence to think that I could be promoted like this......
"Indeed, if I were still in my body...... I should have an uncontrollable panic and uneasiness right now, and as long as I show such emotions, the god of thunder will notice...... But where am I now entitled to touch uniqueness? 'I' will disappear in an instant......"
Once again, he looked at the place where the uniqueness of the "Fool" was, and saw that there was no trace of the faceless white mask there.
Really...... He was a little stunned, but he felt expected.
It should be the high sequence of this pathway that has had an impact on me. Antigonus was so close to me, and it was only natural that I wanted to be close to Him. And "fooled"...... Is it called this? This god-level authority has lowered my judgment and confused my thoughts, making me want to get the extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness of Antigonus at once, so I have a series of irrational thoughts.
Klein quickly analyzed, relieved himself a little, and readjusted his state.
"I was distracted." He replied to Bethel, "Antigonus' 'foolishness' has influenced my judgment and perception. ”
"Hmm." Bethel didn't say anything either.
Immediately, Crane turned his gaze back in the direction of the enemy, only to find that Antigonus, who was lying to the side and dying, actually had one eye open, and the pupil was erect, and the dark beast eyes looked at him without blinking, while the other eye was closed.
At the moment when Crane's will and his gaze met, a playful laugh suddenly appeared in his ears:
"Huh."
In an instant, a chill exploded on Klein's scalp.
This is not the voice of Antigonus.
……
"No response."
Benson recited his name eight times in a row, but received no response, which gave him some strange reassurance.
If the name responds, it proves that Crane has indeed become a terrible cultist, and may even be engaged in some unimaginable anti-social and anti-human activities, but Benson wants "Crane the Miracle Master" to respond to him - when he learns that Crane may not be dead but has become a cultist, Benson actually has a moment of ecstasy in his heart, and the news that his brother is still alive almost brings him to tears.
Of course, it's better to get no response......
It's certainly a good thing that Crane is still alive, but what if it's no longer Klein, or if Crane is no longer what they are familiar with? After calming down, Benson preferred that the church had gone wrong, and that everything tonight was just a strange dream of his own.
He looked back at Melissa, expecting no response and that he and Melissa would be able to get home as soon as possible.
The substitute looked at the time, and he thought that Benson was anxious because he didn't get a response, so he comforted him with a few words:
"With the exception of a very small number of evil gods who manifest their presence in various ways, praying to a hidden being is itself extremely risky, and it is normal to go unanswered."
"Keep reading, and if you don't get a response within an hour, you can stop."
Benson couldn't help but ask expectantly:
"Then can we go back? It's late, sir, my sister has class tomorrow morning and I have to go to work too. ”
The substitute smiled, "It's not up to me, Mr. Moretti. Whether or not you get the prayer tonight, you and Miss Melissa will be in the church for some time until cult suspect Klein Moretti is apprehended. ”
"How can you do this?!"
Benson was taken aback, and his voice couldn't help but rise:
"Are you violating our right to personal liberty, and the Thunder Church wants to illegally detain the believers of the Night Church? We are believers in the Goddess of the Night, and even if we do, I will apply to go to the Goddess's Church! ”
The substitute took a deep breath, then spit it out again, too lazy to explain too much to civilians who didn't even know about the existence of extraordinary powers:
“…… If you have an opinion, go and say to your brother, don't yell at me. You were brought by us because of him, I just followed the procedure, Mr. Moretti, you are also an employee of the government, don't embarrass me. ”
Every time he said a word, the sense of oppression in his body became stronger.
There seemed to be another wind blowing in the room, pressing him to bend over and bow his head, Benson's Adam's apple rolled a little, and he wanted to say something, but finally chose to give in.
"Thank you for your understanding." The substitute no longer looked at him, but stepped aside and sat down facing the emblem of the God of Thunder.
"Keep reading."
Ben Sen had no choice but to move his body, sat down on the wooden chair in front of the Holy Emblem again, and spoke a little helplessly:
"The Spiritual Companion ......"
……
Klein snapped his eyes open and found himself lying on a bench in the Cathedral of Mysteries.
The door of the cathedral was locked, and there was no one inside, except for the quaint lanterns on the walls.
He sat up quickly, groped his body up and down, checked his spirit, and made sure that his extraordinary characteristics of the "miracle master" had not been taken away by Antigonus, and that there was no other person's will in his spirit.
The moment that strange sneer appeared in his ears, the whole world suddenly fell silent for Crane.
Because his spiritual intuition struck.
There was no sense of crisis, no guidance, no revelation, and even his own spirituality began to be affected - so Klein simply sketched out the "return technique" and went straight out of the battle situation and returned to his body.
"Mr. Bethel didn't seem to see the uniqueness of the 'Fool' from beginning to end, nor did he hear that laughter, proving that the fellow's target was not Him, but me...... It's hard to imagine that my priority is ahead of a 'door' god......"
The shock and fear in Klein's heart had not completely dissipated, and his cold sweat had come down in that moment just now.
In a quiet and dimly lit environment, he watched the flickering flames of the ever-bright lights on the wall, and slowly calmed down. Crane pressed his eyebrows, got up and searched, only to find that the small door at the back of the cathedral was unlocked.
"It's a shame, I was so scared to come back, what will I do after that?"
He approached the small door, whispering to himself that gave Klein a new sense of security. Pushing open the back door, he caught a glimpse of something shiny out of the corner of his eye.
Crane turned his head to look, and it was a mirror.
The mirror is the most common style, surrounded by a wooden frame carved with a simple pattern (Klein found that the Demon of Knowledge is especially fond of woodwork), and on the table in front of it is a hand-held candlestick and an unlit candle, which is supposed to be for the priest on night duty, and nothing special. But now, because he pushed the door open, the faint light from the church came in, making the mirrors appear a little fainter.
Crane didn't think much of it, he closed the door and walked out the path through the back door.
At the moment of turning, his movements suddenly stopped.
In the darkness, Crane's pupils dilated uncontrollably, and at the same time, his spiritual intuition, which had been completely in strike, suddenly moved again, sketching a picture in his mind:
Klein stood in pure black;
But the mirror behind him still seemed to glow, because in the mirror world, the candle placed in front of the mirror was lit.
In the mirror, the corners of Crane's mouth rose in an incredible arc, and he was smiling at his back.
This sudden hint of spiritual intuition was completely contrary to Klein's subjective will, because Crane had already seen the abnormal reflection of "looking at himself" in the mirror from the corner of his eye the moment the door was closed, but he wanted to pretend that he didn't see it and just leave. Now, the picture that comes to mind tells him plainly - it's not up to you to decide whether to go or not.
What made Klein even more devastated was that the picture sketched by his spiritual intuition in his mind was not over, but moved like an animation!
Therefore, he saw Klein's mouth open and closed in the mirror, and his ears also "heard" the spiritual voice in real time.
"It's useless, you've long been a part of me......"
"Don't resist, it's just a wake-up, leave everything to me."
Crane didn't say a word, he found that his body could still move freely, so he immediately walked out as if he didn't hear it.
But his heart has already stirred up stormy waves—the Lord of Mystery! This is the Lord of Mystery, right?! The living Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun is talking to himself! His will was revived in Antigonus! - It can't be that I went crazy because of the influence of Antigonus, and I made up such a big drama in my brain, and by the way, I helped my imaginary "Lord of Mystery" even think of the lines together, right?!
Klein crossed the path at a rapid pace, and in a matter of seconds he reached the plaza in the center of the "mouth" shaped building. The square is covered with a large area of glass, and a simple star map is depicted to help people gather, discuss and gaze at the stars in the square.
But the voice still followed his ears.
"I know what you think, I can give you strength......"
“…… I'm not going to help the creatures you want to protect, but I'm not going to hurt them......"
"It's not that I'm keeping my promises, it's that they're too weak to deserve my attention......"
"The only thing that deserves my attention is the all-knowing and all-powerful, and your purpose is the same."
Klein continued to remain silent.
There was no reason, he just felt that he shouldn't speak, after all, it was the top fraudster who was talking to him now. - In the face of scam calls and scam text messages, not responding is the best choice!
TBC
——————
Having said so much, why not be more direct?
Klein thought like a provocateur in his heart: If you just say that you can give me all your power and agree on a time for resurrection, then maybe I will agree, and write a blank check here now, and the fool will reply to your words!
