Too late? Klein's heart sank, and he suddenly felt the "Box of the Old Days" in his hand vibrate violently.
He hurriedly looked down and saw that the surface of the door of the church of bones on the first floor, which had shrunk into a toy, was glowing with light, and every white skull and every twisted face on it seemed to come alive.
Is Adam's church of bones so high-level? Can a single door fight against the first level of "0-61"? Klein did not hesitate and used the crimson star representing Leonard to lock onto a gas lamp post outside of 7 Pinster Street.
Suddenly, the door inlaid with bones and highlighting a distorted face returned to the real world, and a toy street lamp appeared in the first layer of the "Box of the Past".
Then, Klein aimed at Amon inside the Church of Bones and slid his right hand down to open the second level of "0-61".
At this time, Pales Zoroast was no longer on the battlefield, so Klein could move Amon to another place without any worries.
He designated the Astral Plane, hoping that Amon would be "loved" by the Seven Gods, but he had no idea whether this would lead to random changes.
At this moment, the door returned to the Church of the Dead, and then the magnificent building overlapping with 7 Pinster Street quickly collapsed.
The disintegration process was very orderly, starting with the dome, then the arches and walls, and finally the black stone columns.
The fallen objects did not hit the ground, but disappeared in mid-air.
Amon, who was standing in front of the cross, also disintegrated bit by bit as the entire church of bones collapsed. It seemed that he was also a figment of his imagination and could be dissolved at any time.
Of course, Klein knew very well that this was just Amon taking advantage of a "loophole" and using the end of the "fantasy manifestation" of the Church of Bones to make himself an imagination and separate from Backlund.
Boom!
Thick dark clouds appeared in the sky at some point, and a ball of lightning as big as a house, with a silvery stream of light, hit the church of bones, which had not yet completely collapsed, and Amon.
Amon's crystal monocle suddenly began to show tiny cracks, and the pointed hat on his head collapsed.
However, this "Angel of Time" did not panic, and even after his face twitched uncontrollably, he still maintained a smile, holding the crystal column formed by light and shadow, and completely disintegrated like a phantom, disappearing in the ocean of light that filled the interior of the Church of Bones.
The next second, the towering church with a dark background and inlaid white bones became a complete fantasy.
At this time, the house at 7 Pinster Street still existed, but there was an exaggerated mark on the floor of the living room.
The mark was like a person lying there, turned into charcoal.
This was what was left after countless clones of Amon were killed, but Klein knew that Amon's real body had successfully escaped and achieved the intended goal.
When He recovers, the King of Angels will only need a ceremony to ascend to the throne and become the embodiment of all that is "wrong" with this world.
"After I replaced the door of the Church of Bones, the first person to notice, react, and send down power was the Lord of Storms... The goddess really can't descend from the sky. She can only use various media to slightly interfere with reality. It is difficult to affect Amon when he is prepared...
"... I was still happy that I had gotten rid of Amon, and was satisfied that I had avoided His traps, but He had accomplished such a big thing without making any noise...
"...When did "He" shift his focus to Backlund? Well, it should be after I used the law of 'fraud' to be reborn in another place. He sensed the shadow of Pallez Zoroast and the fact that he was connected to me, and began to set his sights on obtaining the last Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic and becoming a true god...
“…Leonard’s previous prayer was not detailed enough. He only mentioned that there was a problem with Jacob’s treasure… A Sequence 1 Angel who was so familiar with Amon and so cautious didn’t notice anything unusual and stepped into the trap directly. Amon must have done something extraordinary again…
“Huh, although I have grown rapidly and transformed in the battle of wits and courage with Amon, I am still far behind this top trickster, and too immature…
“Once Amon becomes a Sequence 0 ‘Error’ and can still walk on the ground, it will be really difficult for me…
"No, we have to figure out the deification ritual of the 'Thief' path and find a way to sabotage it. We can't let Amon ascend to the throne so easily...
“But could this be exactly what Amon wanted to happen? Did He deliberately hold the ceremony, waiting for me to come to him?” Klein let out a long sigh as his thoughts raced.
Then, he delivered a message to Leonard in the posture and tone of a "fool":
"No need to pray."
…………
Inside St. Samuel's Church, Leonard had just emerged from the soil in the garden and tried to rush into the large prayer hall when he heard the words of Mr. Fool.
"No need to pray..." Leonard's pace gradually slowed down, and he repeated this sentence absentmindedly.
He walked slower and slower, and finally stopped beside a stone pillar. He lowered his head, raised his hands, and covered his face.
At this moment, a slightly old voice suddenly echoed in his mind:
"Why are you sad? I'm not dead yet!"
"Ah?" Leonard let go of his hands and asked in confusion and surprise, "Old man, you're not dead yet?"
His eyes were slightly red.
"Look, what kind of words are you talking about!" Pales Zoroast's voice was obviously weak. "Well, to put it simply, I died once, but I'm not completely dead yet."
Leonard finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he lowered his voice and said:
"You succeeded in defrauding Amon?"
"It can't be called a fraud." Pales Zoroast sighed. "Over the years, what I have thought about most is what to do if Amon's real body really finds me. After repeated experiments, I have also 'created' a method, that is, after the real body dies, it can be resurrected in the clone, but it will lose the Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics and passively downgrade to a lower level. Hey, I am not too behind the times."
“In other words, Amon killed you once and took your Sequence 1 characteristics, and you were resurrected as a Sequence 2?” Leonard roughly understood what was going on and asked in confirmation.
Pales Zoroast sighed and replied:
“That’s about it. Actually, Amon was not unaware. When I pushed you out of the Church of Bones, He did not stop me. He just left me with a little hope so that I would lose my determination to fight to the death in the next battle. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have been killed by Him so quickly. After all, I have basically recovered after absorbing the Beyonder characteristics in the treasure…”
Leonard blurted out in surprise:
"Old man, you pushed me out of the Church of Bones because I have your clone inside me?"
Palles immediately sneered:
"What do you think? Do you really think I treat you as my grandson?
"...Don't you have other clones?" Leonard muttered.
Pales snorted, then sighed and said:
"Amon actually deceived his own clone. I am defeated this time without any words."
If He had not learned from the absorbed Amon's clone that this "Angel of Time" did not know the specific details of Jacob's treasure, He would definitely be more cautious in this matter and would be more fully prepared for Amon's appearance.
This was the most crucial reason. Other factors, whether it was the matter of the ancestor of the Jacob family or the situation in which Klein Moretti was dealing with Amon's real body in the God-forsaken Land, were not the factors that made Him make up his mind.
Leonard thought about it and said comfortingly:
"Old man, this is the most deadly trap in this treasure. You will fall into it no matter what. It's good enough if you can survive."
“That’s not the case.” Pales immediately retorted, “If I had a premonition of danger, I would directly choose to believe in a true god, become His angel on earth, and go to Jacob’s treasure under His protection. Hey, after I absorbed the characteristics and restored my Sequence 1 strength, I was thinking about this issue. Should I directly join the Church of Evernight, or cooperate with your ‘The Fool’, or remove the ‘parasite’ and hide like I did in the past, avoiding Amon.”
When He spoke of these things, His emotions became very complicated again.
...The old man really has a plan...Why are you so skilled at things like seeking refuge...Leonard sighed to himself and turned his attention back to the most important thing:
"Old man, after Amon obtains your Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics, do we need to prepare for the Godhood Ceremony?"
"Yes." Pales replied in a deep voice, "This means that for a long time, your former colleagues and we will at most suffer harassment from Amon's lower-level clones, or even nothing at all."
"What are the requirements for his deification ceremony?" Leonard asked.
Pales was silent for a second and said:
"In someone else's deification ceremony, take his place."
At this point, Pales laughed self-deprecatingly and said:
“Amon’s next focus will definitely be the godhood ceremony. This will be our last quiet time.
“Once He becomes a god, He will definitely come to you and use you to deal with the ‘Fool’.
“Although I can abandon you and run away in advance, I also have to worry about whether He wants to reclaim all the characteristics of the angel level.
"Master those rare spirits as quickly as possible, digest the magic potion, become a demigod, hold the holy objects, and gain the favor of the night."
Leonard's expression suddenly became solemn and he nodded slowly.
He immediately found a quiet place and told Mr. Fool some necessary information through prayer.
………….
"Other people's deification ceremonies? It seems that Adam is the only one who has the hope of becoming a god recently... It would be great if the two brothers fought each other... This is the last period of peace... I hope that Amon, who stayed to interfere with me, won't be too strong. I hope that we can find the trace of the Dark Wolf as soon as possible. I hope that Dorian will agree to the deal..." Klein sighed, returned to the real world, and continued to move forward in the dark with a lantern.
