Chapter Ninety-Three: Busy but Not Chaotic
Deep in the rolling mountains, inside that ancient castle.
As soon as Kotal returned from the fog of history, he instinctively cleared himself of all contact with the outside world, preparing to abandon this place and move somewhere else.
Although he still hasn't figured out what happened before, under the premise that there has been an accident, his experience has taught him that he can't take any chances, retreat when he should retreat, and give up when he should give up!
At the same time, Klein's thought in the old city moved, and his figure instantly appeared in the ancient palace above the gray mist, merging with the crimson "figure" that was distorted and scattered at the time of the "Fool's" position, condensing and forming.
In this mysterious space, the crimson stars representing the members of the Tarot Society, such as "Justice", "Hanged Man", and "Star", are constantly expanding and contracting, rippling layer upon layer, intertwined into a mighty "tide".
This was one of the preparations that Klein had made in advance, and in the name of Gelman Sparrow, for different reasons, the members of the Tarot Society prayed to Mr. "Fool" one after another, asking this being to relay some answer and some information to Mr. "World".
In this way, the Crimson Star will resonate, inversely affecting the "Source Fort", causing it to summon the "Fool" to deal with it.
This was one of the keys to Crane's escape from Amon's grasp, which could help him avoid the need to take four steps backwards and chant incantations, and go straight to the "Source Castle" without wasting a little time.
And in this kind of battle at the angelic level, the difference of one second before and after may determine what the final result will be, and Klein wants to fight big with small and must consider every detail!
Sitting down in the high-backed chair belonging to the Fool, Crane beckoned to take pictures of the Star Staff and the Poseidon Scepter while observing other changes in the Source Castle.
There was an extra crimson speck of light in the gray mist, which was shrinking rapidly, and it would not be long before it disappeared, and next to the "Fool" seat, circles of light bloomed, as if to form a pure passage.
On the crimson spot of light, a huge demon wolf figure was faintly revealed, this is Kotal peeking at the "Source Castle", and with the passage of time, after having a certain understanding, he unconsciously encountered the erosion, so he and the "Source Castle" established a preliminary connection, of course, as an angel, as the "God of Wishes" of the Second Age, he has enough personality and ability to cut off this degree of connection and remove the corresponding pollution, if Crane can't grasp this second or two of time, he will lose the lock on the whereabouts of the dark demon wolf again.
Next to the "Fool" seat, the circle of light reflected the "Gelman Sparrow" wearing a half-height silk top hat and a long black trench coat, and wearing a monocle made of crystal in his right eye.
Amon!
The doppelganger of this "blasphemous" didn't know what loophole he exploited to slow down the dissipation of Klein's historical pore image, and then used the subtle relationship between "him" and the ontology and the "Source Castle" to try to directly invade the gray fog under the special scene where the "Source Castle" made a summon!
The light flickered, and the slender and powerful palm of "Gelman Sparrow" pierced through the barrier and plunged into the ancient palace, as if opening an invisible door.
Although Klein had already made a plan and knew that Amon was not so easy to dismiss, when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp, and he was afraid that in the next second, he would hold a monocle made of crystal in his hand and put it in his right eye.
This is also something that must be resolved in a second or two, otherwise the fate of the "Source Fort" will be heavily marked with a question mark.
Klein didn't hesitate, and let one after another twisted and transparent "Spirit Worms" emerge from the surface of his skin, and they quickly coalesced to form another Klein.
This Crane caught the "Seagod Scepter", leveraged the power of the "Source Fort", and with the blessing of the layers of invisible "waves", all the cyan and blue gems lit up, and let one after another violent lightning form a silver-white sphere, rolling into the layers of spreading aperture.
With a crackling sound, the palm that had penetrated into the "Source Castle" instantly split apart, melting and evaporating.
The devastating ball of lightning spreads outwards and descends into reality, enveloping the monocle-cloaked "Gelman Sparrow".
This image from the hole in history was barely maintained by using loopholes, and after suffering such a blow, he could no longer maintain his state, so he could only straighten the monocle made of crystal, and shook his head regretfully, while watching his figure fly transparent and be shattered inch by inch by the electric snake.
When a small half of the "Spirit Worm" was separated to respond to Amon's "prayer", Crane's main body got the "Star Scepter".
He grasped the head of the staff, which was encrusted with multiple gemstones, and aimed the "0" level seal at the rapidly shrinking crimson speck.
At the same time, a scene came to his mind.
The rubies, emeralds, sapphires, pearls, and diamonds on the "Star Staff" then lit up in no particular order.
While!
A distant chime seemed to descend across an infinite period of time, echoing in the gray mist, echoing in the crimson specks of light.
In front of Kotal, the dark demon wolf, the darkness suddenly faded, revealing a huge stone wall clock.
The wall clock is ancient and mottled, and the dial is divided into 12 grids of gray and white, blue and black, each with a different symbol representing a different time.
At the center of the wall clock, three hands that seem to be composed of "time bugs" are long, short and medium, full of vicissitudes.
This is an extraordinary ability from the "Angel of Time" Amon, and Crane relied on the "Star Staff" to make a reappearance of it!
Normally, this level of extraordinary ability is by no means something that can be understood by looking at it once or twice, and it is not so easy to "record", but Klein is not fighting alone.
During this time, he frequently returned to Bakeland with the help of Miss "The Magician" to speak directly with Parles Zoroaster at Leonard the Star, where he mastered the corresponding occult knowledge and extraordinary details.
- Although Pales has fallen to the second rank of the sequence and can no longer use the ability of the "time" realm, his experience and insight are still there, and he has not lost them.
While!
On the ancient and mysterious stone wall clock, the seconds beat suddenly, causing everything around the dark demon wolf Kotal to slow down, and even the gloomy darkness seemed to freeze.
This "miracle master", who was about to completely cut off contact with the outside world and transfer to a distant place through self-wishing and self-realization, suddenly froze in place, and had a brief freeze.
There is no doubt that there is a big gap between the high-level extraordinary abilities and the original reproduced with the "Star Staff", but for Klein, the effect is enough now.
As soon as he saw that the dark demon wolf was affected by the "Ancient Wall Clock", he immediately threw away the "Star Staff" and let all the "Spirit Worms" that had just been separated fly into his body.
With a twist of thought, Crane returned to the old city before the First Age, and then appeared in the dark wasteland with a lantern that emitted a dim glow.
His right hand then grabbed forward, and smoothly dragged out himself holding the projection of the "Star Staff".
- This method can effectively increase the success rate of summoning the "Star Staff", but it will significantly reduce the power of this "0" level seal, after all, it is the historical projection within the historical projection that is summoned. Of course, because now it is a situation where every second has to race, so how to choose is a very simple matter.
Crane didn't enter the fog of history anymore, and the detective grabbed "himself" by the shoulder, and used the "dream divination" technique to sketch in his mind the feedback scene he received when he used the "Source Fort" to pollute the dark demon wolf:
Inside the ancient castle, in the dark hall where no candles were lit, a hill-like demon wolf stood up.
Detail after detail was quickly filled, and Klein fine-tuned the situation based on the image of the target being frozen.
On the black cane, the corresponding gem lit up at once.
In Klein's mind, the painting-like scene swelled out, intertwined with reality, and could no longer be separated from each other.
He descended in the castle, in the dark halls, in front of Kotal, the dark wolf who was holding up his body on eight legs at the same time.
He and this surviving "God of Wishes" of the Second Age have finally officially met!
Without hesitation, while the dark demon wolf had just gotten rid of the influence of the "ancient wall clock", Crane took out an iron cigarette case from his clothing pocket while dispersing his historical pore image, and opened it with a snap.
Inside the cigarette case, there was a gold rune lying quietly, and the surface of the gold coin flashed brightly, reflecting Renette Tinnicole, who was wearing a gloomy and complicated dress and carrying four blonde red-eyed heads.
One of Klein's preparations in advance was to use the method he used to carry the "Blood Admiral" Seigor to get Miss Courier to the Godforsaken Land!
- Renette Tinicol is undoubtedly a "wraith", and a more powerful "wraith", which can also reside on the smooth surface of gold coins, and is a spirit creature by nature, who can enter the gray mist and descend on the forsaken lands like the spirit of "righteous" Audrey.
Based on this condition, in order not to expose the secrets inside the "Source Castle" and the true identity of the "Fool", Crane first let Miss Courier possess the gold coin, and then used the iron cigarette case to make layers of seals, and then sacrificed the item to the gray mist, and through the bestowal ritual to get it into the Godforsaken Land.
Of course, the premise of these actions is that Crane has the personality and strength of a Sequence 2 angel in the "Source Castle", and even if Renette Tinicol does not go right, he can handle it.
Renette Tinicol readily agreed to this because Gelman Sparrow had just helped him get back part of his body.
Silently, the messenger lady left the gold coins and appeared in the dark pupils of the dark wolf that took up three-quarters of the space of her eyes.
"Possessed by a Resentful Spirit"!
