The figure of Mr. "Door" that collapsed from the ball of light stopped there, as if he was caught in a fierce inner struggle.
The layers of doors in his body were just a little bit away from closing completely.
With an illusory splashing sound, the crimson tide that could barely squeeze through the gap of the "Gate of Flesh and Blood" became more and more turbulent, and the blood-colored robe fell heavily, trying to wrap Bethel Abraham again.
But as it fell, the brass eyes with wings growing around them, the young man in flaming armor, the hazy light shield that highlighted his terrifying features, the earth with its eyes open and its mouth closed, and the shadowy woman disappeared at the same time, silently vanishing from this world.
In an instant, a blazing and dazzling sun appeared above the forest. Day replaced night and all shadows quickly retreated.
This forced the blood-colored robe to rise once again, shedding more crimson moonlight, causing the numerous interruptions that followed to return to the mother's arms.
Seizing this opportunity, the shadow of Mr. Door closed his slightly illusory eyes and lowered his head.
"Okay..." He uttered his first sound after returning to reality with difficulty and pain.
His figure completely froze, and then he raised his right hand and brought it to his face.
The next second, Mr. Door raised his head and wore a crystal monocle on his right eye.
A ray of light suddenly burst out from the monocle, illuminating the entire world.
At this moment, all the errors that caused the seals to fail were corrected, all seemingly normal behaviors went wrong, and all clocks skipped several seconds.
The "Stealer" sequence 0 "wrong" ritual is:
Take His place in someone else's deification ceremony!
And the return of Mr. "Door" seemed to directly trigger His deification ceremony.
The light quickly faded, and Mr. Door had turned into Amon, wearing a pointed hat and a classical black robe.
In the hand of this "blasphemer" was a key made of pure starlight and of a slightly ancient style.
Above Him, a blood-red robe fell down, wanting to embrace Him inside; behind Him, a crimson tide angrily squeezed through the remains of the "Gate of Flesh and Blood", wanting to completely squeeze into this world.
In this brief moment, the blood-red moonlight was so bright that it blocked out the sun, the night, the earth, the hazy light and the strange white tower.
Faced with the erosion from the outer gods, Amon raised the corner of his mouth slightly, stretched out his right hand, and took out a piece of extremely ancient stone slab with a mottled surface from somewhere.
The first "blasphemous slate"!
Then, He used the stone slab born from the "Sea of Chaos" to block the remaining gap in the "Gate of Flesh and Blood", and used it as a substitute to receive the falling blood-colored robe.
The first "blasphemous slate" immediately became illusory, as if it was connected to an endless ocean that contained all colors and all possibilities.
The sea surged, swallowing up the blood-red robe and blocking the crimson tide from the starry sky.
The already collapsed "Gate of Flesh and Blood" shrank rapidly and soon disappeared. An angry and terrifying roar was heard, echoing endlessly.
The next second, the red moon in the sky reappeared, quickly fading in color and becoming bright, and above the brightness there seemed to be a huge, twisted scarlet figure.
Amon, wearing a pointed hat and a classical black robe, adjusted the monocle on his right eye, waved to the crimson figure and the bright moon that were looking at him, then smiled, bowed slightly, and saluted to all around.
…………
A huge cross stands upright inside the church of bones, watched by countless skulls with their empty "eyes".
Adam, dressed in a simple white robe, glanced at the lightning outside the stained glass that showed no signs of stopping. He slowly stood up, walked to the pool of flesh and blood left by Klein, bent down and picked up the ancient and mysterious mirror.
Then He turned around and walked towards the second "blasphemous stone tablet".
…………
The first figure that Zaratul summoned from the mist of history was still Roselle Gustav, who was wearing a dark red coat embroidered with gold thread and had long curly chestnut hair.
For this “Servant of Mysteries”, there are many angels he has known and can summon in his long life, but there are only a few who are stronger than the Sequence 1 “Emperor of Knowledge”, such as the ancestor of the Antigonus family before he became a half “Fool”, such as the “Angel of Destiny” Ouroboros, and the senior members of the “Red War” Legion who can indirectly obtain the power of the “Red Angel”.
But in the current situation, Zaratul thought it would be safer to summon Roselle Gustav's historical pore image first:
Before the ancestor of the Antigonus family became half of the Fool, he was also a Sequence 1 Attendant of Mysteries. He would be suppressed by an enemy who had further mastered the Sefirah Fortress and whose status surpassed most Angel Kings and was close to that of a true God.
After Zaratul chose to cooperate with the Rose School and Adam, the success rate of summoning the "Angel of Destiny" Ouroboros would undoubtedly drop directly, making it unsuitable for emergency attempts;
The top leaders of "Red of War" who can borrow power from the past "Red Angels" do not directly possess the ability, so the actual effect they can exert will not be much stronger than that of "Knowledge Emperor" Roselle Gustav.
In comparison, Zaratul would definitely choose the historical projection that he is most familiar with and easiest to summon successfully.
His plan was to seize the opportunity when Gehrman Sparrow "wandered" over directly without preparing the historical aperture shadow in advance, and use the "Knowledge Emperor" Roselle Gustav, the senior members of the "Red War" Legion, and the "Divine Evil" Sua to entangle the opponent, leaving enough time for himself to create a miracle.
As soon as Roselle's figure appeared, complex and illusory symbols condensed in his eyes one after another, trying to pour a large amount of complicated and useless knowledge into the target's mind and burst his head.
At the same time, Zaratul used the various connections he had arranged in advance to change his position - this swamp was his home ground, and let his slippery and transparent tentacles penetrate the hooded black robe and extend into the mist of history, summoning the senior member of the "Red War" Legion.
At this moment, the historical projection of Roselle Gustav suddenly turned around and, with the help of the subtle connection between them, looked at Zaratul's real body.
Zaratul's mind was immediately filled with a large amount of redundant information and useless knowledge. His head almost exploded and his thoughts were temporarily unable to function.
He froze there, and his eyes didn't even have time to change!
The historical projection of the "Knowledge Emperor" Roselle Gustav whom He summoned actually betrayed Him!
Klein was both surprised and not surprised by this result.
What's not surprising is that this is something he was in charge of. His "Spirit Worm" in "Source Castle" has "grafted" Roselle's current state with the secret state that Klein himself had experienced!
The surprise was that Adam had never reminded Zaratul to be careful of Roselle Gustav.
After Klein noticed some coincidences, he made preparations by using the connection between the "Fool" symbol and Roselle Gustav's seal. Through the corresponding prayer light spot, he turned a "spiritual worm" carrying certain words and a certain will into light and threw it to the sleeping fellow villager to wake him up. With the help of a "miracle", he gave him a little power to temporarily suppress the erosion of the fallen mother goddess.
At that time, the worst-case scenario that Klein was prepared for was that something unexpected happened to him and he could not contact Sefirah Castle, and the "Spirit Bugs" in Sefirah Castle and other "Spirit Bugs" scattered in different places would go crazy and out of control, unable to save themselves.
Once the "Spirit Worm" he gave to Roselle mutates, Roselle will know that something is wrong and will use the "Black Emperor"'s ability to distort order to keep the "Spirit Worm" awake for a certain period of time.
As for what method the "Spirit Worm" and Roselle would come up with to save themselves, Klein himself had no idea.
This is the real reason why he was able to hide it from Adam!
With the experience in the Hall of Honesty, Klein knew that he would not have any secrets when facing the "Dreamer". All the self-help methods that he thought of in his mind, whether they were accumulated in the past or just came up now, would be clearly seen and heard by Adam.
At his level, the only way to avoid it is that even he himself doesn't know how to save himself.
Of course, Adam the Dreamer knew without a doubt that Klein had a "Spirit Worm" in Roselle Gustav's Black Emperor Tomb, and understood that his backup must come from there, but he couldn't spy on it because it was a place polluted by the "Fallen Mother Goddess", a god eroded by the "Starry Sky". Spying on Roselle Gustav's thoughts was like spying on an Outer God!
This is a difference in status.
Because of this, Klein was able to calmly inquire about various secrets and decipher the second "blasphemous slate". On the one hand, the knowledge was indeed tempting, and on the other hand, he was stalling for time, waiting for the other side to complete self-rescue. At the same time, he did not let his mind be completely idle, and he could not help but think about how he would save himself.
Klein therefore initially suspected that the reason why Adam shared so many secrets with him, in addition to some reasons that he could not guess at the moment, was to induce him to think about how to save himself, so as to find clues and prevent it in advance.
Therefore, the questions and answers in the Church of Bones were themselves a mental confrontation. Klein had to control himself at all times and not let his thoughts go astray.
Under this premise, Adam clearly knew that something might happen to Roselle Gustav, but He did not even remind Zaratul!
No matter what the reason was, Klein did not miss the opportunity. He immediately raised the "Star Staff" in his hand and skillfully simulated the ability of Amon's "Time Worm".
when!
The shadow of an old, mottled stone clock appeared, and the dial was divided into twelve asymmetrical parts by gray and black, each part having different symbols representing different times.
when!
One of the three pointers at the core of the stone clock jumped, and Zaratul's body completely froze in place.
Klein immediately turned into a vortex of worms with countless slippery tentacles extending out. In the center of the vortex was the phantom of a strange light gate.
The light gate did not move, but the vortex spun rapidly. The terrifying suction force raged, forcibly drawing out the extraordinary characteristics in Zaratul's body bit by bit.
This was the method that Pallez Zoroast used to deal with Amon's clones, relying on the status and forcing them to converge!
A little bit of extraordinary characteristics flew out, faster and faster. By the time Zaratul got rid of the solidification of time and the explosion of his mind, he could no longer withdraw. He could only watch with hidden despair and sigh as his body was completely lifted up and fell into the deep and dark worm vortex!
After a few seconds, the vortex outlined the body again, and Klein's feet stepped on the ground.
In the mist of history, Zaratul’s figure appeared again and again, but he was unable to take back his extraordinary characteristics. In the end, he could only fade away and could not be completely resurrected.
Klein used the ritual effect that had not yet been completely eliminated to directly swallow up Zaratul's characteristics!
He wants to use this to reduce the influence of Tianzun in his body!
…………
While the Corpse Church was still sinking and floating in the sea of thunder, Adam, wearing a simple white robe and a light golden beard, suddenly appeared at the edge of the sea area where the God War Ruins were.
The sea then parted, revealing a road that led directly to the place stained with the blood of the ancient sun god, to the projection of the Giant King's Court, and to the land abandoned by the gods.
Deep in the God-forsaken Land, on the top of a mountain, a huge cross stood upright, with a looming figure hanging upside down.
