Godforsaken land.

Klein silently passed through the ash-poured barrier and entered the interior of Chernobyl.

Walking through the interior of the building, which is covered in black marks, Crane feels a little strange about the remnants of the building and the overall layout, because it is more like a research institute than the nuclear power plant in his previous life.

Without any need for him to look for it, he soon found a few yellowish sheets of paper on the table in a machine crashed room.

Through the 'translator' taken out of the pores of history, Klein understood the above content, and also understood what happened here-

In order to conduct research on the reproduction of oil from dry oil fields, Maozi built a research institute here.

Not surprisingly, the unexpected happened quickly.

Most of the people in the institute have been turned into 'oil' by unknown pollution, and those who survive can hear 'shouts' from underground.

This passage of simple and straightforward text makes Klein think deeply, the pollution that comes from the ground, that is, the pollution that comes from the 'roots'.

Most of the people in the institute were turned into 'oil' by pollution, but the 'Ancient Sun God' survived, and he withstood the pollution, or rather, the pollution chose him as a carrier.

That's why he survived and appeared in the Second Age as the 'Ancient Sun God', a true god of the two paths.

But it also caused him to suffer far more pollution than the other true gods, and eventually led to the fall of the ancient sun god.

Does this mean that the source of the underground contamination is in this institute?

Crane exited the room and continued into the depths of the institute.

After walking for dozens of seconds, his eyes suddenly darkened a lot, and a cliff appeared in front of him.

That part of the institute had collapsed into the ground, dark and deep and empty, with no end in sight.

Faintly, Crane seemed to hear a silent cry, which came from the depths of the earth, directly in his head.

At this moment, a shriveled palm with only skin and bones poked out of the unilluminated darkness and clung to the edge of the 'cliff'.

Then, a figure leaped out and landed in front of Crane's eyes.

He wears a peaked soft hat, a classical black robe, and a monocle stuck in the socket of his right eye, which is none other than the 'Angel of Time' Amon.

But this Amun's state is not too normal, like a skeleton covered with a skin.

Crane's eyes were vigilant, and he quickly invaded the other party's spirit line.

At the same time, Amon's flesh and blood in front of him quickly filled.

He pushed the monocle and said with a smile:

"There were visitors.

"You are?"

Amon raised his hand and straightened the crystal monocle he was wearing in his right eye, this action froze for several seconds before it ended, Amon whispered as if he was thinking:

"There's no other me nearby...... Is it really not, or is it completely disconnected? ”

What happened to cause this Amon to become independent? No, maybe it's fraud...... Klein's heart moved at first, and then he suppressed the corresponding thoughts, and then asked:

"You're exploring the secrets of the underground."

Amon bowed his head lightly and said:

"Isn't that obvious?"

He immediately half-turned his body and pointed to the dark path in front of the 'cliff' that the light could not illuminate:

"My father crawled out of here just like I did.

"Ah yes, it has a name, you've probably heard of it, 'Sea of Chaos'."

'Sea of Chaos'? One of the nine essentia's 'Chaos Sea'...... Klein asked quietly:

"So you ventured into it in search of the buried history and the truth of the world?"

"That's pretty much it."

Amon pinched the top and bottom edges of his monocle and said in a slightly self-deprecating tone, "But I didn't do it voluntarily. ”

"Everyone I knew that the depths of the earth were dangerous, and I didn't want to go down on my own, so we tried a lot of roundabout methods, including creating secret puppets to replace ourselves, but they didn't succeed and couldn't get feedback.

"In the end, under the auspices of Ontology, we had a fair vote, and unfortunately, I was chosen."

Klein asked:

"And then, you jumped on your own?"

"You can't wait to be thrown down by them." Amon spread his hands and said.

At this point, He seemed to understand at last, and whispered to himself:

"The 'Sea of Chaos' disconnected me from my main body and from the clones around me? Am I independent? ”

Amon suddenly spoke, and said with a slightly helpless expression:

"There should be a lot of conflict between you and my ontology, but is it necessary for you to be so wary of one of my doppelgangers?"

"Yes."

Klein, who had already controlled the thread of Amon's spirit, nodded solemnly, but quickly smiled again:

"And, you should actually thank me."

"Thank you?"

Amon's expression became strange, you want to turn me into a secret puppet, I have to thank you? Who is the god of pranks?

"Yes, you should thank me."

The corners of Klein's mouth curled slightly, and he reached out and grabbed it lightly in the void, holding an ember of sparkling fire in his palm, playing with taste:

"Thank you for giving you real independence."

Crane throws Emon at Amon and manipulates Amun, who has become a semi-secret couple, to grab Ember.

Then, crush it vigorously.

"Wait!"

Amon's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly wanted to stop it, but he was powerless to resist when his body was controlled.

Syllable!

The embers were easily crushed, turning into ashes and wrapping around Amun.

Until it is completely immersed in Amon's body, until Amon's body is covered with a mottled layer of shining sparks. It made Him look like charcoal that hadn't burned out, burning itself in the afterglow.

Crane looked at all of this and laughed happily.

Perhaps, as the other party said, it is true that he has disconnected from the body because of the 'Chaos Sea', but it is unlikely.

After all, Amon had been in the forsaken land for at least 1,300 years, and his quest for Chernobyl was by no means recent, but continued for 1,300 years.

Even the most conservative guess is that this doppelganger was at least dropped by Amon hundreds of years ago.

Taking 10,000 steps back, if this doppelganger really disconnected from Amon's body, it would be impossible for Amon to be unaware. And since Amon is aware of this, then he will definitely destroy the 'independent' clone as soon as possible, and at the same time send other clones to explore the Chaos Sea more carefully!

So the answer is obvious, everything this doppelganger just said is just a fraud. Because for Amon, the biggest significance of this doppelganger is to confirm whether Klein has entered Chernobyl!

As long as Klein enters Chernobyl, no matter what the outcome of this doppelganger is, it will not hurt Amon - if the doppelganger is eliminated, it can also be guaranteed that Klein has indeed entered Chernobyl.

And if the doppelganger is not destroyed, Crane is successfully deceived into believing that he is independent of the ontology. Then Amon may also use this doppelganger to carefully prepare a trap for Crane.

But Klein didn't choose either, he chose to flip the table - since you said you were independent, then I will give you real independence!

Crane silently let go of his control of Amun's spirit thread, and chuckled:

"We can have a good chat now."

Amon fell into a brief silence, he raised his hand to look at the burning spark in his palm, and sighed softly:

"He didn't tell me this was going to happen."

Klein asked quietly:

"Him? Do you mean Adam? ”

Adam is the divine incarnation of the ancient sun god, and he is clearly no stranger to dark souls, also from the Old City.

But it doesn't seem like He would have told Amon everything, and of course, it could have been that Adam himself didn't know about it.

After all, the one who cooperated with Adam would not have told Him anything.

Amon asked with some surprise:

"Why do you think it's Adam?"

Amon didn't expect Klein to answer, and said to himself:

"I'm talking about my father, of course, who spoke of the embers, who dealt with them in the Second Age."

"But I don't know much about Him."

"That's why I'll stay in Godforsaken Land, looking for the buried history and the truth of the world."

Klein's eyes flashed slightly, Amon didn't know that Adam was the ancient sun god?

Yes! The union between Adam and Amon led him to think that Amon already knew the truth! But the truth is, Adam wouldn't tell anyone about it at all!

Adam, who had experienced a betrayal, must have been very cautious and would have concealed the fact that he was the 'ancient sun god', a secret that he would not tell anyone but another self, not even if Amon was his son!

After all, Adam is also the son of the ancient sun god, is it not the same as being taken away by the ancient sun god?

Medici, as the most loyal subordinate of the true Creator, was also killed by Adam, which made Medici hate Adam to the core, but the reason was that Adam did not want to arouse suspicion.

How could such a person expose this to others?

The world is not at all friendly to the 'ancient sun gods', and although the seven gods are hostile to each other and check and balance each other, their attitude towards the true creator is surprisingly consistent.

Even the true creator was sealed away in the Godforsaken Land, and anyone who dared to reveal himself as an ancient sun god would definitely be attacked by the seven gods. Even if he can get away with it with his extraordinary ability, he doesn't even have a door if he wants to advance to Sequence 0!

Because the Seven Gods will definitely do everything they can to prevent this from happening.

"Wait!"

Crane's expression moved slightly, and he suddenly remembered one thing—something he could think of, Ember had no reason not to think of. In that case, why didn't Ember just poke this to the Goddess of the Night, or even to the other gods?

Klein didn't think Ember didn't do it because he didn't want to borrow someone else's hand, after all, judging by Ember's style, as long as it made things easier, he didn't mind causing trouble at all.

Is it possible that Ember is actually the default to Adam becoming a sequence 0?

And if you continue to think along this line, what good is it for Ember to default to Adam being a sequence 0?

On the surface, it may seem like no, but it is of great benefit to the true Creator.

For once Adam became a god, he was bound to first merge with the true Creator.

When he becomes the true god of the dual paths, and then uses the power of the Chaos Sea, he can easily reclaim the authority that was once stolen.

So, is Ember planning to personally train an ultimate boss and then hunt it down with his own hands?

No, it won't be like this.

Ember's purpose is clear, hunting down powerful enemies is just challenging, but it doesn't really benefit Ember today.

So, the biggest possibility is the same thing that Ember did to Fort Source-

Ember wanted Adam to be the true God and to be united with the true Creator. After that, he will reproduce his operation of the Source Fortress, starting with the fusion of 'Adam' and 'True Creator', and gradually erode the Chaos Sea, turning the Chaos Sea into His shape!

Klein's mind moved slightly, and he immediately cleared his thoughts, but soon a new question arose:

"It would be in Ember's interest to make Adam a god, but Ember certainly wouldn't want Adam to dominate after the fusion."

"The merger of Adam with the true Creator is essentially the reintegration of the Beings who have been divided into two parts."

"One side is dominated by divinity, and the other side is dominated by human nature."

"If Adam's divinity is dominant, then the humanity of the true Creator may leave only a trace of it."

"This state can be called jingle bell."

"And Ember is necessarily biased towards the latter, that is, the true Creator is dominant, and Adam's divinity only needs to leave a trace of it."

"Therefore, the 'true creator × Adam', who is dominated by the true creator after the fusion, can also be called Ding Zhen."

"The true creator, with the support of embers, is theoretically more advantageous."

"But on Adam's side, there is also the support of another 'first fire', and the two sides are actually equal in this regard."

"Then how can Ember ensure that it is 'Ding Zhen' and not 'Ding Dong' that appears after the fusion?"

Crane silently looked up and looked at Amon.

Perhaps, it was similar to what he did to Amon.

At this moment, Crane's expression suddenly moved, because he heard the illusory voice of prayer in the darkness - the voice was so familiar that Crane, who was already an angel, could easily 'see' the appearance of the praying person, it was clearly a poet classmate!

And the poet's classmates are praying to him now, does it mean that Amun's essence has been obtained?

Klein's expression moved, he glanced at Amon's doppelganger, and chuckled:

"Your body has been obtained, and you may be returning soon, so I advise you to leave as soon as possible."

As the words continued, Crane's figure quickly vanished, leaving only 'Amon' alone.

And 'Amon' also changed color slightly, and his expression was cloudy.

But in the end, he succumbed to reality and disappeared in the same place.

When he was truly 'independent' as a doppelganger, He already knew his fate - because the only thing the Essence could do with Him was to destroy Him on the spot.

——

In Beckland, in the luxurious villa of the Hall family, Audrey looked at the red moon that appeared in the sky in a daze, and whispered:

"Red Moon, why does it appear during the day? Could it be a goddess? ”

Among the goddesses' honorific names is the Lord of Crimson, and the Crimson Moon is a symbol of its power.

The 'twilight' that appears at noon corresponds to the god of war in Fusak.

And the red moon now hanging high in the sky, does it represent the goddess of the night?

Audrey instinctively felt a little weird, the goddess did have the Lord of Crimson in her name, and the Night Church would also hold a large Mass at the full moon, but the Night Church never encouraged the congregation to believe in the moon!

And in the mysterious world, there is also the 'primordial moon', an evil god who steals the power of the moon.

If it was really the goddess who made a move, shouldn't the vision that is appearing now be 'night'?

But if that red moon is not the handle of the goddess, then who will it be?

Just thinking about it, Audrey suddenly saw a flower in front of her, and she couldn't help but widen her eyes.

The scene in front of her made her mouth open wide - because in the sky, a second moon appeared.

An illusory full moon with a bright and cold, deep blue color!

She hung next to the red moon like that, unleashing her light to the fullest.

All the witnesses were stunned, it was the moon they had never seen before.

Neither the normal textbooks of human society nor the books related to the occult have recorded similar phenomena!

Except for the common lack of moons, full moons, and occasional 'blood moons', the moon has never undergone such changes, at least since the Fifth Age, for more than 1,300 years, absolutely none!

At this moment, the witnesses realized that the moon had other colors besides crimson and blood-red - but the question was, why were there two moons?
