Chapter 145 Whose Trap



Leonard didn't have a very intuitive impression of Amon. He only knew that he was the enemy that the parasites in his body feared the most, and the "murderer" who caused the mysterious and powerful old man to be injured to this extent. Therefore, his emotions soon calmed down and he lowered his voice and asked:

"What should I do now?"

In his mind, the slightly old voice came back after two or three seconds:

"It's probably not Amon's real body that came, but his clone."

...Sure enough, "The Blasphemer" Amon is an angel, and may even be a Sequence 1 angel. After all, the old man is also suspected to be an angel on earth... Leonard absorbed the information and confirmed his speculation while listening to Pallez Zoroast continue:

"If Amon's true form dares to appear in Backlund, it will likely trigger a divine descent."

God's coming? How many years has it been since such a thing happened? Since the Fifth Epoch, this is a legend recorded in the classics and has never appeared publicly! Does this mean that even in Sequence 1, Amon is also a top existence? No wonder he is called "blasphemer"... In two or three sentences, Leonard realized how terrifying the angel named Amon was.

Standing in front of the mailbox, his thoughts were floating around. Suddenly, he had an idea and whispered:

"Since Amon is so valued by the gods, can we find a way to inform the church of what happened in Backlund..."

In Leonard's opinion, the two major churches of Night and Storm, which were born in an earlier era and covered the entire Fourth Epoch, should have rich experience in fighting against angels and are the best "candidates" to deal with Amon.

In his mind, Pales Zoroast snorted and said:

“It’s useless, and this might even be what Amon wanted to achieve.

"For me, losing a clone is just a waste of energy. I won't suffer any real damage. Instead, I can use the clone's death to see the corresponding changes in fate, and thus find the source of the disturbance or 'waves'. Although this cannot directly lock you and me, it can greatly narrow the range and create conditions for the original body to strike a fatal blow.

“Besides, you don’t think that Amon only has one clone in Backlund, do you?

"According to its habits and style, there may be only one that does not conceal its existence, but in fact, there are several, dozens, or even hundreds of clones surrounding this 'lighthouse'.

"When we try to get rid of that conspicuous guy, we may be surrounded by several, dozens, or even hundreds of Amons from different angles. They could be passers-by, birds on the roof, ants on the ground, bugs in the wood, tiny creatures in the air. If you are not a demigod, you will not be able to notice it even if your clone invades your body..."

Listening to the old man's detailed description, Leonard felt a chill down his spine, and suddenly he felt as if countless Amons were lurking in the air around him.

"Are you scared?" Pales Zoroast laughed, "If you knew that Amon could steal your fate without any abnormality, you would be even more scared."

"What does it mean to steal destiny?" Leonard asked warily and puzzledly.

Pales sighed in his old voice:

“It will follow you home. Then, you will find that your parents will think you are their son, your wife will think you are their husband, your children will think you are their father, your friends and everyone you know will think you are their unlucky one. You will lose all connection with the real world and die little by little.”

"...Will this stealing be effective permanently?" Leonard couldn't help but take a breath.

Pales Zoroast chuckled:

“Before a thief is caught, will he voluntarily return the stolen items?

"Unless you've had enough fun."

Leonard was silent for a moment. He felt that an enemy of Amon's level was not a question of whether he could be fought or not, but rather a question of whether he could be imagined or not.

After a few seconds, he asked in a low voice:

"So what should we do?"

He no longer offered his own ideas proactively because they were most likely unrealistic.

Pales Zoroast was silent for a while and said:

"Take another look."

…………

Inside the "Brave" bar.

As agreed, Maric was waiting in billiard room number three.

Now that Sherlock Moriarty has agreed to help, discussing the details of the operation face to face is an essential step.

This cannot be explained clearly through correspondence alone.

Gulu took a sip of beer, and Maric raised his hand to comb his hair. His face was pale and bloodless, and the faint madness that revealed it was much weaker than before.

At this moment, he had an idea and looked to the side. He saw a figure wearing a top hat and formal suit quickly outlined. It was Sherlock Moriarty.

Teleport? Maric's heart trembled, his eyes narrowed, and he instinctively became more alert.

This is not about not trusting Sherlock Moriarty, but it is the natural reaction of a creature facing a being at the top of the food chain.

At the same time, he saw from the corner of his eye that Sharon's puppet-like figure appeared on the high stool.

Klein lowered his hat, saluted the two, and smiled:

“What I care about most is how much intelligence do you have?

“The better the intelligence, the higher the probability of success and the lower the risk.

"It's a simple example. Can you confirm that there is no problem with the mummy of Tutankhamun II? Can you confirm which coffin it is in? If you can, I can 'teleport' it to the spirit world before the guards can react, and take it on a 'trip' to the spirit world, and the problem will be solved."

Just as Maric was about to recall, he heard Sharon say in a calm voice:

"We can confirm which coffin it is in, but we can't confirm if there is any problem."

Klein nodded, pulled over a chair and sat down:

"Besides this, what else do you know?"

Sharon's blue eyes moved slightly and said:

"It could be a trap set by the Rose School, or it could be a trap set by the Loen military."

I didn't mention the second guess before... Well, if the other party hasn't confirmed the cooperation, I wouldn't reveal too much... Klein asked thoughtfully about the latter point:

"A trap for the Rose School?"

This time it was Maric who answered, and he elaborated:

"In the ancient Highland Kingdom, mummification was a custom reserved for the nobles. It was very sacred, and the mummies of the pharaohs were something that could not be desecrated. Before the coalition forces of Loen, Intis, and Fenaport conquered the country, the descendants of the pharaohs had already moved the most important batch of mummies, including the remains of successive pharaohs.

"This time, a secret base of the Highland Resistance was breached, and Loen soldiers found the mummy of Tutankhamun II at the bottom. They were going to send it to Backlund and hand it over to an unknown military agency for research.

"This is the greatest insult to the descendants of the pharaoh. They have every motivation to take back the mummy of Tutankhamun II. Among these descendants, there is a demigod named Mahams. He is not only one of the main leaders of the rebels, but also an important member of the Rose School and a student of the 'evil god' S'a."

Klein nodded slightly and said:

"That is to say, the mummy of Tutankhamun II might be the bait used by the Loen military to lure Mahmuds. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that the Rose School deliberately sacrificed the remains of a pharaoh to eliminate you."

He originally wanted to say that since one of you is a Sequence 6 and the other is a Sequence 5, it seems unnecessary for the Rose School to go to such an extent. However, when he thought about the fact that the Rose School is currently dominated by the "Indulgence School" and will not have any restraint in the desire for revenge, he felt that he could not make a decision based on normal people's thinking.

Furthermore, Miss Sharon and Maric were able to break free from the restrictions of the "**Mother Tree" and successfully escape from the Rose School. In addition to luck, there might also be secret support... If this really happened, they would definitely be the main targets of the Rose School's attack... Klein naturally had some thoughts in his mind, but he didn't say them out loud.

"Yes." Maric rubbed his forehead and said, the large amount of words just now seemed to have caused him mental and physical fluctuations.

Klein thought for a moment and said:

“If it’s the former, then things are more troublesome than I expected.

"To deal with a demigod, a demigod with accomplices, the Loen military must have at least two Beyonders with combat power at the same level as Mahmuds to ambush. In addition to this, they must also leave some margin to prevent accidents, such as preparing a '0' level seal. In short, if they are not near Backlund, or if they act in conjunction with the three major churches, they may not be able to complete such a trap so easily."

Sharon moved her chin slightly and nodded, acknowledging Sherlock Moriarty's judgment.

Klein stopped emphasizing the difficulty and said:

"Therefore, we need to have more accurate and detailed intelligence so that we can make more targeted preparations, so that we can achieve our goals."

Without waiting for Sharon and Maric to speak, he added:

"I know a secret existence that can do magic mirror divination and strictly abides by the principle of equivalence. As long as you don't care about ** or can endure behaviors that bring strong shame, you can get answers to many questions from there.

“Would you like to try?

"I will summon you."

In "Black Divination", whoever summons the creature will bear the greatest risk.

"What if you refuse to expose yourself, or refuse to do that?" Maric narrowed his eyes and asked.

Klein answered sincerely:

"There will be lightning strikes, which can cause considerable damage."

Lightning strike... Maric originally thought that with the zombies' physical strength, it wouldn't be a big problem for them to withstand direct damage, but he didn't expect that it would be "lightning" that could restrain the undead.

He hesitated, glanced at Sharon, and after getting an affirmative nod, he exhaled and said:

"good."

Klein didn't say anything more. He took out a pen and paper from his pocket and instructed:

"Get a mirror ready."

As soon as he finished speaking, a palm-sized makeup mirror appeared on the table.

A palace-style makeup mirror... Klein took a look and drew a symbol that combined "peep" and "secret" on the paper.
