Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Miracle

Thousands of Amun each made a "steal".

With their numbers, as long as it wasn't the worst of luck, there would always be a few who would succeed, and besides, the "Fool's" potion was now ownerless, and there was no difficulty in stealing it.

At the same time as "stealing", Amun also lifted a certain seal on themselves, allowing the extraordinary characteristics of "apprentices" and "thieves" to show their ability to converge.

This is quite effective for the "Fool" potion and maximizes the success rate of Amun's "stealing".

However, all Amun ultimately failed.

Because a new rule has appeared on the "Brass Book of Trenthorst":

"Theft is not allowed here!"

Previously, in order to deal with the revived "Masters of Mystery", the Amuns weakened all the seals here, helping the "Brass Book of Trenthorst" to get rid of the "foolishness", and could make some rules that were valid for a short time in a limited number of cycles in a limited time, but now, this has affected them in reverse.

Seizing this opportunity, the illusory imprint on Klein's eyebrows became more and more obvious.

Around his body, a thin gray and white mist intertwined, forming a thin "silkworm cocoon".

He activated the "Source Castle" with all his might, and combined with the extraordinary characteristics of his "Mysterious Attendant", he created an extremely powerful fusion effect on the "Fool" potion.

The dark liquid with no fixed form was like a beast that had finally seen its food after starving for a long time, and it pounced on Crane at once.

It stretched and changed like a translucent human skin, enclosing Klein completely.

Klein's face stood out under this layer of liquid, and his facial features were sometimes distinct, sometimes blurred, sometimes distorted, sometimes blank.

In the Forsaken Lands, under the great light and shadow of the ancient sun god, the surface of the illusory sea, which encompasses all colors and possibilities, is rapidly formed by a discourse written in the most ancient language:

"Antigonus' attempt to elevate the 'Fool' ultimately failed for various reasons. ”

The reason why this being, who once dominated the entire planet, does not use the name Klein Moretti is because the other party is now carrying the identity and destiny of Antigonus.

If the former is the subject, Klein can completely ignore it:

What does Klein Moretti's failed promotion have to do with Antigonus becoming a "fool"?

And when the subject becomes Antigonus, this sentence that seems to prophesy, like arrangement, like deciding the result first and then giving the reason, can make the situation very serious:

If Klein does not give up the identity and destiny of Antigonus, then he will be qualified by this phrase;

If he renounces Antigonus' identity and destiny, then the Sequence 9 through Sequence 1 extraordinary traits in his body will no longer truly "belong" to him, undigested - they are the extraordinary traits that Antigonus once controlled, and currently have nothing to do with Klein Moretti, he just forcibly swallowed them.

In this case, even if there are no other factors, just those extraordinary characteristics that are not digested, there is a high probability that Klein will lose control on the spot, and taking the "Fool" potion in this state and completing the promotion ceremony will undoubtedly have no possibility of success!

When the ancient sun god wrote these words, the "Eternal Sun", "Lord of the Storm", and "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" in the astral realm all sensed something, and each made the most violent counterattack, trying to interfere with the other's actions.

However, even though most of his energy was devoted to restricting these three true gods, even if it seemed quite difficult, the ancient sun god still quickly completed that passage.

But the great light and shadow of His incarnation had visibly dimmed and seemed to be unable to last long.

In the astral plane, inside a floating ancient palace.

The battle between the "Mother Earth Goddess" and the "God of Steam and Machine" against the "Primordial Witch" and "Hidden Sage" has become fierce again, but the former two can still exert some spare power to exert influence on Amun's clones and prevent them from disrupting Crane's promotion ceremony.

Amun was forced to "flash" everywhere, but some of them still turned into plants, blossomed and fruited, and returned to the earth, and some of them collapsed into words and were printed into illusory books.

In addition to these, they have a large part of them strengthening the seal, restricting the "Trenthorst Brass Book" so that the rules it makes do not work or only work for a moment.

Under the influence of the three aspects, even with the number of Amun, it seems to be a little insufficient.

But even so, a small number of them seized the opportunity to have Klein's figure reflected on the crystal-ground monocles and similar circle signs.

In the next second, those monocles and circle logos bloomed with pure light.

This is not "stealing", but returning.

Amon chose to return to each other what he had "stolen" from Klein at this moment.

That's Klein's suicidal thoughts!

When Klein was caught by Amon in the forsaken land, he wanted to commit suicide many times but failed, and was "stolen" by the other party to take away the corresponding thoughts.

At this critical moment of promotion, once he has suicidal thoughts, the result can be imagined!

At this moment, Crane, who was tightly wrapped in the "Fool" potion, his thoughts had become confused and diverged, and he felt that the surface of his body was extremely cold, and the viscous liquid was eroding into it little by little.

Then, he had suicidal thoughts and thoughts of giving up.

This was a change that Klein did not expect at all, he had long forgotten that he had been "stolen" by Amon and had suicidal thoughts, and he did not expect that the other party not only did not discard these at will, but carefully preserved them.

Before the change, at another time, although such thoughts are strong, Klein can still rely on his self-control ability to make a certain confrontation, forcibly suppress this thought, and wait for them to dissipate on their own, just like facing other bad thoughts.

But now, he is in the midst of a promotion ceremony, is being affected by potions, and his mental stability has been lost, and there is no way to effectively curb suicidal thoughts.

The Amuns always had all sorts of weird but quite effective ways to do it.

Fortunately, Klein is now not only Klein, but also Antigonus.

What does Klein Moretti's suicide have to do with Antigonus?

Relying on the recognition brought by this identity, Klein did not give up immediately and ended his life. He pulled the spiritual imprint of Antigonus from his body, mixing it with suicidal thoughts, and barely suppressed them.

With this balance, Crane's mind and body were further eroded by the "Fool's" potion.

His thoughts were completely divergent as they had been when he had been promoted to "Secret Attendant".

But the difference is that this time he did not merge into the spirit world, but continued to extend, and the gas encompassed the entire planet, the entire spirit world, and part of the astral world.

At this moment, Klein felt himself in the bodies of different believers, in the bodies of every human being, in the bodies of various animals, in the bodies of all living things.

There is divinity in all things.

At the same time, he was scattered in the fog of history, scattered in the passing time, scattered in the sparkling river of many tributaries that flowed quietly.

It's one, it's ten thousand.

This experience of divinity further drained Klein's thoughts, and it seemed that all that was left was the indifference of looking down on everything.

And even this indifference is dissipating little by little.

It won't be long before Klein will completely lose himself and be dominated by the various spiritual imprints inside the "Fool" potion, becoming a monster in the true sense of the word.

This coincided with the fate of Antigonus' out-of-control madness, which allowed the latter to gain an acceleration.

At this moment, he felt a little uncoordinated, unnatural, and abnormal.

In the fog of history, there are a small number of fragments of light that are twisted and cannot be combined, and there seems to be an essential contradiction between them.

Gradually, they separated, and different contents had to be recorded in the form of different branches, so that the distortion could be initially restored.

The Klein spirit, which has been integrated into all things, "popped up" a little bit because of this incongruity and unnaturalness, and regained a little self-awareness.

With this self-awareness at the core, he quickly gathered a divergent spirit and led the process of integrating the "Fool's" potion into his body.

But at this time, Antigonus's out-of-control and crazy fate came ahead of schedule under the "prophecy" of the ancient sun god, and Crane's body collapsed again, unable to bear the "fool" potion.

Without hesitation, and without time to hesitate, Crane immediately removed part of the "stealing" effect, returned Antigonus's identity, destiny and self-perception to its original owner, and let him sit on a huge stone chair, slowly open his eyes, and Antigonus, who looked dazed, gradually became sober.

He didn't lose control immediately, because the main reason for his uncontrollable madness was that the will of the "Lord of Mysteries" had revived to a greater extent, and now the uniqueness and most of the extraordinary characteristics of the "Fool" that carried that part of the will were no longer in him.

Therefore, Antigonus was able to fight against the madness of his own will, trying to redeem his fate that had gone out of control.

The "prophecy" of the ancient sun god thus came true: Antigonus did not advance to sequence 0 "Fool".

And after Klein lost his identity, the extraordinary characteristics of the "soothsayer" path in Sequences 9 to 1 in his body became undigested, which made him suddenly on the verge of losing control.

The "Fool" potion that wrapped his body like a cloak suddenly completed its infiltration, and the will of the "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" was revived again!

"Give up......

"Leave everything to me......

"This time, I'm not going to hold any other essentia......

"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......

"This will be a forbidden place for the outer gods......

“......”

The strange and familiar whisper echoed in Crane's heart, making him want to give up.

And his suicidal thoughts, which had been suppressed by the mental imprint of Antigonus, also resurfaced after losing the balance of the former.

The results of a failed promotion are imminent.

At this time, the "Goddess of the Night", who was unable to slash the dusk greatsword again, suddenly gave up control of Amon's true body.

Amun's true form leaped out, and as the clones waited for the Klein ritual to fail, the goddess once again dragged the exaggerated sword covered in orange-red light.

This time, the target is Klein!

Klein's thoughts flashed, and he was actively controlled by suicidal thoughts, and did not make any attempt to resist.

With a pop, he was slashed by the Symbolic Sword of Dusk, shattering into a puddle of rotten "rotten flesh" that exuded extraordinary properties.

Crane died, killed by the "Goddess of the Night" before the Amuns could take all the measures against him, before the ritual failed and went completely out of control.

In the next second, the "Goddess of the Night" put the bird-shaped gold ornament on her head, and her body blurred and swelled, enveloping the entire ancient palace, so that Amon's true body and clone, "Mother Earth Goddess", "Primordial Witch", "God of Steam and Machinery", "Hidden Sage" and Antigonus were all erased by the eraser in an instant, like sketches.

"Secretive"!

The ancient sun god seemed to understand what the "Goddess of the Night" wanted to do, but he, who had already made two "prophecies", could not write the third paragraph, and the three true gods of the "Lord of the Storm" continued the previous outburst and firmly dragged him down.

In the next second, a "miracle" happened, and Klein returned from the fog of history.

The uniqueness of the "Fool", which had just belonged to him, and the extraordinary properties of three copies of Sequence 9 through Sequence 1 all rushed back into his body.

The "god of lights", who was afraid that he would be disturbed, hurriedly used the "Trenthorst Brass Book" to add a rule:

"It's a place where extraordinary traits return. ”

Suddenly, Crane returned to the state he was in when he "drank" the "Fool" potion.

But unlike before, at that time, the pillars of his ontology were the extraordinary properties of Sequences 9 to 1 belonging to Antigonus, which had not been digested, and now, the first to return to him were undoubtedly the parts of Sequences 9 to 1 that had belonged to him and had been fully digested.

In this way, he has a real pillar, a pillar that can accommodate the uniqueness and residual characteristics of the "fool".

- Klein is now the equivalent of himself when he first arrived at the main peak of the Hornachis Mountains, a self who has digested the potion of the "Mysterious Attendant" and can try to promote to Sequence 0 "Fool".

Relying on his resurrection after one death, Klein completely reversed his state!

This was the inspiration he got from Russell's resurrection, and of course, the whole process was different from the resurrection of the "Black Emperor".

Klein originally arranged to kill himself as the "God of Lights", but he didn't expect the "Goddess of the Night", who had not communicated beforehand, to be so tacit.

In an instant, his body split, blurring into a thin gray mist and a dark liquid.

The gray mist and black liquor fused together, and a dense network of granular-like worms appeared on the surface, and then, they intertwined into a translucent dark cloak.

Beneath the cloak, there was no body, and it was dark.

This process was very short, that is, less than two seconds, and the "Goddess of the Night" was obviously unable to sustain long when she hid so many gods at once.

In an instant, a "door" of light appeared on the surface of the hidden world.

The "door" opened suddenly, and Amun, wearing a peaked floppy hat and a classical black robe, jumped out.

At the same time, he saw an illusory mask with blank features appear under the translucent dark cloak.

As the mask instantly outlined the appearance of Klein, which was infused with the characteristics of Gelman Sparrow, Amon's thoughts suddenly became confused, as if his IQ had been forcibly lowered.

The "Fool" was born.
