"destiny!"

As the long and difficult words of ancient Hermetic language echoed in his voice, the location where the Spirit World Plunderer and Klein were located suddenly dimmed.

It was so unnoticeable, just like a cloud just passing by in the sky without stopping.

But when the illusory shadow disappeared in an instant, the "invisible man" in the translucent white robe was already standing still, and the surface of the clothes showed traces of insect crawling uncontrollably, sluggish, slow and difficult.

Opposite it, Klein's eyes had completely regained clarity, and the scars on his face under the shadow of the triple crown were gone.

It looked like it was not the Spirit World Plunderer who was manipulating Klein's "Spirit Thread" and was close to success, but Klein who was manipulating the Spirit World Plunderer's "Spirit Thread" and was about to transform the other party into a secret puppet!

The "Luck Stealer" spell switches fate!

This advanced spell made with the "Worm of Time" can steal the target's subsequent fate and graft its own future in a shorter period of time onto the other party, thus completing the exchange.

So, Klein and the Spirit World Plunderer suddenly switched positions. One was reborn from the dead, while the other fell into a desperate situation in the moment when victory was in sight.

After confirming that the spirit world predators were intelligent, extremely difficult to deal with, and hard to hunt, Klein began to act out a retreat. It seemed reckless, but in fact he was deliberately letting himself fall into the control of the spirit world predator step by step, luring it out, and being ready to use the "Luck Stealer" spell at the critical moment!

In that case, the more ruthless the spirit world plunderer is to his enemies, the more desperate his own situation will be!

Of course, if the "Luck Stealer" spell did not work, or the main soul of the Spirit World Plunderer did not appear, and he had to rely on other methods to control the situation, Klein still had one last means of self-protection, which was to directly end the summoning and return to the gray fog, exchanging the loss of two secret dolls and several magical items for his own safety.

Without caring about how magical the Luck Stealer spell was, or how terrifying the angels on the Thief's path were, Klein raised the Scepter of Poseidon in his hand without hesitation while the swap of fate was still going on.

His dark blue papal robes spread out in the wind, and the golden triple crown reflected the alternating blue and silver light. The top of the bone scepter instantly burst out with lightning, which intertwined into a ball and fell on the spirit world plunderer!

The silver-white light suddenly became brighter, submerging the target and illuminating the surrounding area in white.

Once, twice, three times, Klein continued to release terrifying ball lightning, not sparing his own spiritual power.

Finally, he heard a roar that seemed to come from the depths of his soul, and intuitively sensed that the target had collapsed and disintegrated.

Klein then lowered the Poseidon Scepter and watched the silver-white lightning dissipate.

At this moment, his entire spirit has become quite illusory, and even with the blessing of the "Tyrant", it still seems unreal.

As the lightning faded away, the "invisible man" in a translucent white robe appeared in Klein's eyes again.

A little bit of dim light emerged from inside, and the spirit world plunderer suddenly split as a whole, turning into countless illusory bubbles, which shattered one after another.

The "Tyrant" hunt was successful.

At this moment, a violent earthquake suddenly occurred in the deeper areas of Calderon, as if a huge monster had awakened from the death of the spirit plunderer, or countless dangerous creatures had poured out.

The indescribable feeling turned into an illusory gray-white, like a flood, rising layer by layer from the bottom of the area.

Other spirit world plunderers? No, more terrifying creatures, the ones that the spirit world plunderers serve? Also, the core area of ​​Calderon, at the end of the deep pit underground, was still so quiet, without any sound, which made people feel even more terrified... Klein forced himself to concentrate, paying attention to the movements in the inner layer of Calderon, while anxiously waiting for the characteristics of the spirit world plunderers to precipitate and aggregate into materials.

For the time being, he did not have the joy of a successful hunt, but was only lingering on the edge of the abyss.

During this process, Klein asked "Winner" Enzo and "Admiral of Hell" Ludwell to move closer to him, and threw the "Scepter of Poseidon" to the former so that he could get rid of his impulsive state and think more calmly about how to deal with the changes that might happen next, and whether there were any other details that were missed just now.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Klein suddenly remembered something:

When he made the magical objects sing, the "Creeping Hunger" was praising the "True Creator" and reciting the full name.

Although the human-skin glove used the Hermetic language instead of the ancient Hermetic language that could pry open the power of nature, the latter could also play a role in the sacrificial field! This meant that the "True Creator" was likely to have heard the praise of "Creeping Hunger" and noticed what was happening here.

In addition to the rising "gray flood" and the terrifying creatures deep in the city, there are other dangers... Wait, I am a spirit now, which is roughly equivalent to a resentful spirit. I am not in a normal state... Just as a thought flashed through Klein's mind, inspiration suddenly struck him, and he instinctively turned his gaze to the entrance of Calderon.

There was a flash of light and a figure came in.

The figure was wearing a simple and plain linen robe and had long silver hair.

He is a man with soft features, a beautiful face, and gentle eyes with a hint of indifference, as if he is watching fate and everyone in the world as a bystander.

Behind him, rays of light formed illusory layers of pure wings that spread outwards and covered the entire entrance area.

“…” Klein almost hissed through his teeth as a series of terms flashed through his mind:

"Ourolus!"

"Tail Swallower!"

"Angel of Destiny!"

"Angel King!"

He did not bother to consider the feasibility of his previous idea, his body expanded as if it had no substance, encompassing both the secret dolls Enzo and Ludville, as well as the remaining foam of the spirit world plunderer that was still separating and fusing its characteristics!

At this moment, Ouroboros’ silver eyes had reflected the extremely majestic and tyrannical figure in the distance wearing a triple crown and dark blue robes, as well as the gray-white mist that was extremely blurred by the aura of the “tyrant”.

A shimmering river appeared in both eyes, surrounding the "tyrant"-like figure and the outer area of ​​Calderon.

Silently, the square houses and pale pillars that had just been destroyed in the lightning storm stood up again. The giant blacksmith, with only two charred toes left, regained his body and appeared in the mausoleum, pounding on the anvil.

Everything returned to the state it was in shortly after the Tyrant entered.

However, Klein dressed as the Pope was missing, and his two secret dolls and the remaining bubbles of the spirit world plunderer were also missing.

The corresponding figures could not return, and the scene that had just been restarted was shattered, turning back into the devastated state it was after the war.

Ouroboros, the Tail-Eater, just watched quietly for a long time without making any move. The gray-white color that rose in the depths of Calderon gradually fell back.

…………

Above the gray fog, Klein sat exhaustedly on the high-backed chair of The Fool. He was so tired that he couldn’t even ask Enzo and Ludwell to massage his shoulders and legs.

He had thrown the "Poseidon's Scepter" back into the junk pile, and the "Tyrant" card had also left his soul and was turned upside down next to the "Black Emperor" card. The remaining foam of the Spirit World Plunderer floated in front, constantly emitting extraordinary characteristics and constantly combining with those light spots.

After Klein paused for a moment, he saw specks of gray dust falling onto the mottled surface of the long table, along with a transparent object that seemed to have no weight.

The thing was the size of a palm, and was made up of worm-like things entwined in a human-like shape. It was filled with colorless liquid, and bubbles often came out of it, emitting fine black rays.

Klein didn't dare to look closely, because the weightless transparent object had a richer structure in the details, forming indescribable patterns and symbols, which seemed to directly integrate concepts such as knowledge, power, change, secrecy, weirdness, and madness into it, making them no longer abstract.

This caused Klein to feel extremely dizzy, and he even felt as if his spirit was on the verge of collapse and his soul was about to lose control.

“This should be the true soul of the spirit world plunderer… I also have the corresponding dust, about 70 grams, which is more than needed and more than I expected…” Klein nodded barely noticeably, put the dust into a box, and threw it into the pile of debris along with the true soul, and covered it with gray mist.

After completing these tasks, he raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, silently mocking himself:

"If I hadn't been holding the 'Sea God's Scepter', after being attacked by the spirit world predators, I would probably have chosen to leave Calderon directly and wait until I had help. Then I would do the safest hunting so as to control the movement and not disturb the unknown things in the core area...

"Alas, I just rushed to the end. Although the result was good, it really doesn't suit my personality. It also completely contradicts my role as a 'Fortune Teller'. I must try to avoid using the 'Poseidon's Scepter' in the outside world in the future.

"Uh... the spirit world predator has been hunted successfully. There is no need to ask Miss Sharon for help. Wait a few days and write to her to tell her not to worry about this matter anymore.

“However, I have a feeling that I will go to Calderón again in the future, and then I may have to ask Miss Sharon for help.

"We also need to gather information about the evil spirits. We can't put all our hopes on the City of Silver..."

As his thoughts raced, Klein returned to his room without the doll. He finished the ceremony, trudged to his bed, and fell into a deep sleep.

…………

"Escaped?" Soest looked at the man opposite and asked Daly Simone who was communicating with the spirit world.

They had just completed the operation and captured several members of the Spiritual Cult, but the key figure shown in the intelligence, "Pale Hand" Palenque Tasib, was not in the secret base.

This is a Sequence 4 demigod, so the Red Gloves Team not only used a Level 1 Sealing Artifact, but also asked the "Eye of the Goddess" Ilia to take action, but to no avail.

Daly Simone nodded:

"Yes."

She immediately looked at the captive and asked in a ethereal voice:

"Where did Palenque Tasib go?"

"He said he was going to see someone." The spiritual cult member replied slowly.

"Who is that person?" Daley Simone asked, and Leonard Mitchell and others also looked over.

The man being channeled said in a flat voice:

"Ince Zangwill."
