Chen Lun was expressionless in the center of the musical instrument shop.

On the shelves and walls around it, orchestral instruments such as violins and recorders of different sizes are placed, and even some niche instruments. Some of the guests stopped to watch, some came and went, but they couldn't seem to see the two men, nor could they hear the blonde man's beautiful tune.

[Spiritual intuition] seemed to be ineffective, and there was no movement. Even if Chen Lun can clearly feel the unprecedented huge pressure that Howard has brought to him at this moment, this strong passivity that has always helped him warn him is like a pool of stagnant water, and it is not alarmed.

This added a little more to the solemnity in Chen Lun's heart.

As the crisp notes of the piano gradually moved towards lightness, Howard's body shook slightly, like a pianist immersed in the performance.

"Struggle, rejoicing, repeatedly, until the great victory...... Jack, your script is like four chapters of this piece, and it's coming to an end, and I think it's time to give you an ending. ”

Howard said without looking back.

Chen Lun stared at his back, grasping the back of his silver cane, his muscles exposed, and his heart resisted the urge to unfold the mythical creature form and step forward to deliver a fatal blow to the other party.

Since embarking on the path of fate, behind the many coincidences, it is the blonde man in front of him who is behind the scenes, guiding him, and finally having a great impact on himself and the people around him...... Mr. Biles' death, Arnold's banishment, Noah's death, and the uneasiness of his own time.

All of this was made possible by Howard!

He knew that he would eventually fight the other party, but he didn't expect that this day would come so suddenly......

Maybe his own promotion has aroused his vigilance, or maybe the other party's layout is nearing completion...... In short, the moment has quietly arrived.

Chen Lun's irrepressible killing intent poured out.

His eyes instantly turned into a pair of emerald vertical pupils, and several crystalline white scales appeared in the corners of his eyes. All the musical instruments in the store clanged and trembled at the same time, and countless cracks cracked in the walls and ceiling, and the customers were shocked by this strange phenomenon, shouting and running out in a panic.

"Don't worry, Jack, I know you hate me, but there's still some time for your final performance...... Allow me to say something. ”

Howard kept playing with both hands, and the "Symphony of Destiny" came to the final chapter, and the rousing melody seemed to herald the end of the struggle, and a sweet victory was about to come.

But at this critical moment, he deliberately pressed a wrong note, and with a bang, he broke the perfect strumming, like a stopper, and forcibly put an end to the song.

The blonde man turned slowly.

On the deep facial features, a pair of sapphire eyes with a smile.

He then took out another book.

The book cover reads "King of Clowns".

"It's about your script, Jack, but I didn't write your ending...... I've never liked to see the endings of other works, because when I was young, I was always lost and empty because I saw the endings, and I had an extremely strong sense of detachment...... I think it's because I'm so involved in empathizing with those characters that I grieve and struggle for them, and once the end is over, all the stories will fall to the ground. ”

Howard shook his head wistfully.

"Honestly, I don't like that feeling...... Over time, I stopped looking at the ending of the story, and at most I only imagined a bright future in my mind, so that those characters would live forever and be happy forever. ”

He stared at Chen Lun with a smile, as if he couldn't see the latter's murderous intent, and just said to himself:

"You're one of my favorite characters, and I wouldn't want to write your ending if I could...... But I have more important things to do, and I need you to fill this last void. ”

"It doesn't seem like I expected."

Chen Lun said coldly.

"Everything you have been planning for hundreds of years is for this moment, for the sake of the Angel Promotion Ceremony...... So I'm part of your ritual too? ”

"Well, so to speak."

Howard didn't hide it, and nodded calmly.

"But this is the royal city, you actually appeared here in a grand manner, aren't you afraid that Emperor Andre will suppress you?"

Chen Lun asked indifferently.

Howard chuckled and shook his head, touched the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said in a calm tone:

"The Sun King? He was indeed a great monarch who ruled over the Fifth Age for more than 4,000 years...... But now he couldn't protect himself, it was almost impossible to strike, and the oracle of the Martyr Father was like a sharp sword hanging over his head, ready to fall at any moment. ”

He spread his hands and smiled at the corners of his mouth.

"This is also a good confirmation of this in the script...... Following the example of Huan Gong back then, I promoted the internal friction of the sun, moon and stars of the 'Three Families of the Starry Sky', and after the Fourth Age, I once again completed the great moment like the 'Time of the Pearl', forming a new round of fate cycle, thus advancing the promotion ceremony of [Sequence 2 - Anonymous] by most of the ...... The Sun King clearly saw this, but he didn't stop it himself, but only erased the traces of the little prince's existence to reduce the effect of the ritual, which showed that he was indeed bound by his hands and feet, and could not use too much power. ”

Howard explained slowly to Chen Lun, his tone as if he was sharing an interesting story with a friend.

"It's a pity that I was prepared...... The ceremony went on as expected. ”

Chen Lun's eyes narrowed slightly.

According to Howard, he thinks of the "time of the pearls", which is recorded in the monument of fate...... The Lord of Fate once hid behind the scenes in the Fourth Age, pushing the god of death Bancroteff to the front of the stage, using his power of killing and chaos to dismantle the Cult of the Star God from within, causing the Yanita civilization to split into three families, corresponding to the three families of the sun, moon and stars.

What he didn't expect was that what Howard did was actually imitating Huangong...... Or is it that the promotion ceremony of the second sequence of fate is to complete some kind of epic cycle of fate?

But who is playing the role of an old man in this fight? ’

The doubts in Chen Lun's heart flashed.

In the next moment, the answer quietly emerged-

'Is the Council of Generosity...... In the Church of the Seven, the key camp choice is the difference between himself and Houston, which has also become the last straw that breaks the camel's back...... At the same time, the Council of Generosity takes the path of conspiracy, which happens to symbolize death. ’

Chen Lun took a deep breath and seemed to feel the meticulousness and horror of all this layout, Howard was the most unscrupulous, even crazy guy he had ever seen.

Howard slowly got up from his chair and continued:

"Now, it's all you need for the ceremony, Jack...... The promotion of angels requires the only divinity of the authority of the path, and the bookmark in your hand happens to correspond to the divinity of a destiny path, although it is incomplete, it is enough to support my promotion. ”

His expectant eyes came out from under the lenses.

"Are you wondering why it's in your hand? Hehe, because that's what I deposited on you in the first place...... While its importance to me is unparalleled, according to the 'Law of Transcendent Fusion', it can have a huge and uncontrollable influence if it stays with me, causing me endless troubles and even affecting the smooth running of the project before it is all formed...... And now, it's time to take it back. ”

Chen Lun's pupils shrank sharply, and he unconsciously took a step back.

I was arranged and designed by Howard from the beginning?!

At the beginning of the crossing, the reason why I was able to get "Philip in Wonderland" was because he guided him behind the scenes?!

'No...... It's wrong, there are too many places that don't make sense! ’

Chen Lun's mind was in chaos.

He hurriedly cast [Multitasking], and with the support of the mythical creature trait "Skull of Enlightenment", his brain raced rapidly, thinking about the blind spots he hadn't noticed.

But more and more threads are invisibly entwined together, knotted and difficult to untie. Chen Lun himself didn't realize that his fingers trembled slightly due to emotional fluctuations.

"Fate is always like this, it is predestined, and it gives people a sense of magnificent ups and downs, not to play, but to play with ......"

Howard turned his head to the side, looking through the walls of the store to the golden palace of the sun.

He said calmly:

"Jack, I'll be waiting for you in the depths of the Dream Realm, I'm sure you'll come...... Because my time is running out, and yours is running out of time. ”

The voice has not yet fallen.

Howard's figure vanished without a trace.

Chen Lun still stood in place, the silver cane clenched tightly, and he didn't even pay attention to control the force, and the part of the pestle on the ground directly penetrated the ceramic floor, cracking the Dao lines.

He felt the intense pollution spread from his body, and those brilliant white crystal scales emerged one after another.

'I'm going to lose control?! ’

Chen Lun's heart tightened, and he hurriedly controlled his emotions.

The power of mythology obtained after the transformation was incomparably powerful, but it was accompanied by terrifying pollution, and for the first time, Chen Lun felt that his body and spirit were like a nuclear bomb about to explode, causing him strong unease.

A moment later.

He let out a long breath, the jade vertical pupil in his eyes returned to normal, and the killing intent gradually dissipated, returning to depth and silence.

The white crystal scales that emerged from his body also slowly disappeared.

He knew exactly what Howard meant by what he said before leaving...... The ritual was nearing completion, and Howard couldn't let him go, but Intracity wasn't a good place for a decisive battle, so he chose the Dream Realm.

Even if I don't go, Howard will probably have a second hand, and once he does rise to angelism, then I will never turn over...... It was rushed, but it was my only chance. ’

Chen Lun had already made up his mind in his heart.

He will go to the dream world, face Howard, and face his fate.

Then break it with your own hands.

But before that, I have one more thing to accomplish......

Chen Lun ignored the shivering boss hiding in the corner, dropped a bag of gold pounds, and turned around and left the musical instrument store.
