Thousands of Amons each made a "steal".

With their number, as long as their luck is not extremely bad, there will always be a few who succeed. Moreover, the ball of "Fool" potion is now ownerless, so it is not difficult to steal it.

While "stealing", the Amons also lifted a certain seal on themselves, allowing the extraordinary characteristics from the "apprentice" and "thief" to show their own aggregation ability.

This is quite effective against the "Fool" potion, maximizing the success rate of the Amons' "stealing".

However, all the Amons eventually failed.

Because a new rule appeared in the "Brass Book of Trunsoest":

"Theft is not allowed here!"

Previously, in order to deal with the resurrected "Lord of Mysteries", the Amons weakened all the seals here, helping the "Brass Book of Trunsost" to get rid of "fooling", so that they could formulate some rules that were effective for a short period of time in repeated cycles to a limited extent. But now, this has affected them in the opposite way.

Seizing this opportunity, the illusory mark on Klein's forehead became more and more obvious.

Around him, a thin gray mist intertwined to form a thin "cocoon".

He activated the "Source Castle" with all his strength, and combined it with his own "Mysterious Servant" extraordinary characteristic to create an extremely powerful aggregation effect on the "Fool" potion.

The shapeless dark mass pounced on Klein like a beast that had finally seen food after being hungry for a long time.

It continued to stretch and change, like a translucent human skin, completely enveloping Klein.

Klein's face stood out under this layer of darkness. His facial features were sometimes clear, sometimes blurred, sometimes distorted, and sometimes blank.

In the God-forsaken Land, under the huge light and shadow transformed by the ancient sun god, on the surface of the illusory sea that embraces all colors and possibilities, another passage written in the most ancient language quickly took shape:

"Antigonus's efforts to promote The Fool ultimately failed for various reasons."

The reason why this being who once dominated the entire planet no longer uses the name Klein Moretti is because he now bears the identity and fate of Antigonus.

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

What is the connection between Klein Moretti's failure to be promoted and Antigonus becoming "The Fool"?

When the subject becomes Antigonus, this sentence, which seems like a prophecy, an arrangement, and a sentence that first determines the result and then gives the reason, can make the situation very serious:

If Crane does not give up Antigonus’ identity and fate, he will be defined by these words;

If he gave up Antigonus' identity and fate, then the Sequence 9 to Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics in his body would no longer truly "belong" to him. They had not been digested. Those were Beyonder characteristics that Antigonus had once controlled. They had nothing to do with Klein Moretti at the moment. He had simply swallowed them forcefully.

In this situation, even without other factors, just those undigested Beyonder characteristics would most likely cause Klein to lose control on the spot. And in this state, taking the "Fool" potion and completing the Ascension Ceremony would undoubtedly have no chance of success!

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

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

But the huge light and shadow of His incarnation had obviously dimmed a lot, and it seemed that it could not last for much longer.

In the star realm, in a floating ancient palace.

The battle between the "Mother Goddess of the Earth" and the "God of Steam and Machinery" and the "Original Witch" and the "Hidden Sage" became fierce again. However, the former two were still able to spare some strength to influence Amon's clones and prevent them from destroying Klein's promotion ceremony.

The Amons were forced to "flash" everywhere, but some of them still turned into plants, blossomed and bore fruit, and returned to the earth. Some of them collapsed into words and were printed in illusory books.

In addition to these, a large number of them are strengthening the seal and restricting the "Trensost Brass Book", making the rules it sets ineffective or only effective for a moment.

Under the influence of these three aspects, even with the number of Amons, it seemed insufficient.

But even so, a small number of them still seized the opportunity to reflect Klein's figure on the crystal monocle and similar circle symbols.

The next second, those monocles and circle logos all burst into pure light.

This is not "stealing" but giving back.

The Amons chose this moment to return to Klein what they had "stolen" from him.

That was Klein's suicidal thought!

When Klein was captured by Amon and taken to the God-Forsaken Land, he tried to commit suicide many times but failed, and the other party "stole" his thoughts.

At this critical moment of promotion, if he had thoughts of suicide, the result would be predictable!

At this moment, Klein, who was tightly wrapped in the "Fool" potion, had become confused and scattered in his thoughts. He felt the surface of his body was extremely cold, and the sticky liquid was eroding it bit by bit.

Then, he had suicidal thoughts and wanted to give up.

This was a change that Klein had never expected. He had long forgotten that Amon had "stolen" his suicidal thoughts. He also didn't expect that the other party not only did not throw them away casually, but instead carefully preserved them.

If it were before, or at any other time, although such thoughts were strong, Klein could still rely on his self-control to resist them to a certain extent, forcibly suppressing them and waiting for them to dissipate on their own, just like facing other bad thoughts.

But now, he was in the process of the promotion ceremony and was under the influence of the potion. His mind had lost its stability and he had no way to effectively curb his suicidal thoughts.

The Amons always have all kinds of strange but quite effective methods.

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

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

Relying on the knowledge brought by this identity, Klein did not give up immediately and end his life. He pulled out the spiritual imprint of Antigonus in his body, mixed it with the thoughts of suicide, and barely suppressed them.

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

His thoughts were completely scattered, just like when he was promoted to "Mysterious Servant" before.

But the difference is that this time he did not merge into the spiritual world, but kept extending, encompassing the entire planet, the entire spiritual world and part of the star world like gas.

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

Everything has divinity.

At the same time, he is also scattered in the mist of history, scattered in the passing time, and scattered in the quietly flowing river with many tributaries.

It is one, and it is also ten thousand.

This divine experience further drained Klein's thoughts, and it seemed that only the indifference that looked down on everything was left.

And even this indifference is gradually dissipating.

It won't be long before Klein completely loses himself, being dominated by the "Fool" potion and the various mental imprints in it, becoming a true monster.

This coincided with Antigonus's uncontrolled madness, which accelerated the latter.

At this moment, he felt something uncoordinated, unnatural and abnormal.

In the mist of history, a few fragments of light are twisted and unable to be combined, and there seem to be essential contradictions between them.

They gradually separate and record different contents in the form of different branches, so that the distortion can be initially restored.

Klein's spirit, which had merged into everything, "popped out" a little due to this incoordination and unnaturalness, and he regained a little self-awareness.

With this self-awareness as the core, he quickly gathered his scattered spirit and led the process of the "Fool" potion absorbing into his body.

But at this time, Antigonus's fate of losing control and going crazy came early due to the "prophecy" of the ancient sun god. Klein's body collapsed again and he was unable to withstand the "Fool" potion.

Without hesitation, and without time to hesitate, Klein immediately lifted part of the "stealing" effect and returned Antigonus' identity, fate, and self-awareness to the original owner. Antigonus, who was sitting on a huge stone chair, slowly opened his eyes with a dazed look on his face, and gradually became sober.

He did not lose control immediately, because the main reason for his madness was that the will of the Lord of Mysteries had revived to a large extent, and now, the uniqueness of The Fool and most of the extraordinary characteristics that carried that part of the will were no longer in His body.

Therefore, Antigonus was able to use his own will to fight against that crazy tendency and try to save his out-of-control fate.

The "prophecy" of the ancient sun god was thus fulfilled: Antigonus indeed failed to advance to Sequence 0 "The Fool".

After Klein lost his identity, the extraordinary characteristics of the "Fortune Teller" path from Sequence 9 to Sequence 1 in his body became undigested, which put him on the verge of losing control.

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

“Give up…

"Leave everything to me...

"This time, I will not accommodate any other essences...

"I won't help the creatures you want to protect, but I won't hurt them either...

“It’s not that I keep my promise, but that they are too weak to be worthy of my attention…

"This will be the forbidden land of the Outer Gods...

“…”

The strange yet familiar whispers echoed in Klein's mind, making him want to give up.

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

The consequences of failed promotion are about to appear.

At this time, the "Goddess of Night", who was no longer able to chop down the giant sword of dusk, suddenly gave up control of Amon's true body.

Amon's real body jumped out, and while the clones were waiting for Klein's ritual to fail, the goddess once again dragged the exaggerated long sword covered with orange-red light.

This time, the target is Klein!

Klein had a flash of thought, and was actively controlled by the thought of suicide. He did not make any attempt to resist.

With a "puff", he was slashed by the sword that symbolizes dusk, and shattered into a pool of rotten "meat", emitting extraordinary characteristics.

Klein died. He was killed by the "Goddess of Night" before the Amons took any measures against him, before the ritual failed and completely got out of control.

The next second, the "Goddess of Night" put the bird-shaped golden ornament on her head, and her body became ethereal and expanded, covering the entire ancient palace, making Amon's real body, clone, "Mother Goddess of the Earth", "Original Witch", "God of Steam and Machinery", "Hidden Sage" and Antigonus all erased by an eraser like sketches.

"secret"!

The ancient sun god seemed to understand what the "Goddess of Night" wanted to do, but he, who had already made two "prophecies", was unable to write the third paragraph, and the three true gods, the "Lord of the Storm", continued their previous outbursts and held him back tightly.

The next second, a "miracle" happened, and Klein returned from the mist of history.

The uniqueness of "The Fool" that had just belonged to him, and the three copies of Sequence 9 to Sequence 1 Beyonder Characteristics, all quickly returned to his body.

Fearing that he might be disturbed, the "Djinn" hurriedly used the "Trunsoest Brass Book" to add a rule:

"This is a suitable place for the return of Beyonder characteristics."

Suddenly, Klein returned to the state when he "drank" the "Fool" potion.

But the difference from before was that at that time, the pillar of his body was the Sequence 9 to Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics belonging to Antigonus, which had not been digested. But now, the first thing to return to him was undoubtedly the part of Sequence 9 to Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics that once belonged to him and had been completely digested.

In this way, he has a real pillar that can accommodate the uniqueness and remaining characteristics of "The Fool".

——Klein is now equivalent to himself when he first arrived at the main peak of the Hornachis Mountains. After digesting the "Mysterious Servant" potion, he can try to advance to Sequence 0 "Fool".

Relying on resurrection after death once, Klein completely reversed his condition!

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

Klein had originally arranged for the character who would kill him to be the "Lamp Goddess", but he did not expect that the "Goddess of Night" who had not communicated with him beforehand would be so tacit.

In an instant, his body split into pieces, turning into thin gray mist and dark shadows.

The gray fog and black liquid blended together, and dense granulation-like worms appeared on the surface. Then, they intertwined into a translucent dark cloak.

Under the cloak, there was no body, only darkness.

This process was extremely short, less than two seconds, and the "Goddess of Night" obviously could not maintain her ability to hide so many gods at once for long.

An instant later, a rapidly moving "door" of light appeared on the surface of the hidden world.

The "door" opened with a bang, and Amon's true form, wearing a pointed hat and a classical black robe, jumped out.

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

As the mask instantly outlined Klein's appearance with the characteristics of Gehrman Sparrow, the Amons' thoughts suddenly became confused, as if their IQs were forcibly lowered.

The Fool was born.
