Chapter 14 Tributaries

Because he didn't know what state Amon was in right now, Klein didn't dare to delay. After the mental problem was initially resolved, he immediately came to Calderon to get the water from the "River of Eternal Darkness".

And because it involves the source quality, he can only divination and prophecy to a certain extent, and he can see some pictures vaguely, so he cannot make accurate judgments.

After looking around, Klein raised his hand and summoned the historical pore image of himself a few minutes ago, returning the main body to "Origin Castle".

His consciousness immediately transferred to the projection, giving it a substantial sense of existence.

Then, Klein grabbed the void again and pulled out the "Star Staff" historical projection.

Frankly speaking, after being able to use most of the Beyonder abilities below Sequence 0 of the Apprentice pathway through Sefirah Castle, Klein actually no longer needs the "Star Staff", a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact—the latter With the magic, he can basically reproduce it, and there are almost no negative effects.

However, he always believed that an angel still had to have a melee weapon, because he didn't know when he would fall into the predicament of the failure of his active supernatural ability.

In the mysterious world, this is definitely something that can happen. Regardless of the rules of the "Arbiter" pathway, or the extraordinary failure to a certain extent brought about by an outer god, it is possible to achieve a similar effect.

In this case, picking up a hard cane with some passive effects and directly blasting the enemy's head is an effective method.

As a King of Angels in the "divine" pathway, it is an instinct to be prepared in all aspects!

After weighing the "Star Staff" and pressing the top hat on his head, Klein took out the bird-shaped gold ornament from the "Origin Castle" and pinned it to his left breast pocket.

Then, he took one step and entered Calderon City, which used to be the ancient god of death, the god of the phoenix, the ancestor of Gregory.

The first thing that caught his eye was a huge deep pit with no visible bottom. Various strange-shaped buildings circled around the deep pit, extending down circle after circle, forming a grandiose beyond ordinary people's cognition. City.

Some of those buildings are single houses standing on the top of pale stone pillars, some are huge long and square coffins, there are no windows, the doors are opened on the roof, some are directly a tomb pit, and there are stone tablets at the entrance, and some are made by various people. All kinds of bones are built, it looks quite messy...

The closer to the bottom of the pit, the more complete the building is preserved, and the closer to the top, the more collapsed, full of decay and dilapidation washed away by time.

Klein just glanced at it, and a faint gray-white mist appeared around him, directly relying on the personality of "Origin Castle" to resist Calderon's rule of turning all living beings into the dead.

It wasn't too negative for him to become a dead man, but he didn't like that cold and indifferent feeling.

"The 'grey flood' that rose before has receded..." Klein, who was wearing a top hat, a windbreaker, and a walking stick, nodded thoughtfully, and stepped into the depths of Calderon that the naked eye could see.

This time, he used the extraordinary ability of the "thief" pathway to directly steal the distance within the perception range, so as to avoid entanglement with various dangerous monsters active in this mysterious city.

This is not what he is afraid of. What he should be afraid of is those monsters. If he doesn't want to waste time, he actually doesn't mind taking the opportunity to collect a group of Secret Puppets to make up for the loss caused by the destruction of "Utopia".

In addition to this reason, Klein also cautiously considered another point:

Calderon is a city of the dead, and the deepest part of the ground is likely to flow the "River of Eternal Darkness", and the marionette is already dead in essence. Once it gets close to the ground, there may be changes.

As he went deeper and deeper, Klein found himself thinking a little too much:

None of the various monsters hidden in this strange city dared to appear. The breath of "Origin Castle" made their survival instincts overcome their crazy tendencies and predation habits.

The deeper he went underground, the quieter Klein's surroundings became. Those strange buildings were obviously kept intact, but they seemed to have been dead for many years, and even the aura became cold, dark, and rotten.

Now it feels the same as watching a black and white silent film. If I hadn't heard my "breathing" and "heartbeat", I would doubt if I was deaf... Klein coughed lightly, fighting with his inner grunt. The silence of death.

He intuitively believed that once he got used to this environment and his body and mind became silent, he would die in a true sense and irreversible little by little.

The closer you get to the ground, the stronger this feeling becomes.

While constantly stealing the distance, Klein walked for a long time and finally saw the bottom of the pit.

No, it's not really the bottom, just a huge, dark palace blocking the way down.

This palace is supported by giant pillars, inlaid with various bones and corpses of different parts, and some places are even covered with bloody skins belonging to different races.

Klein stared for a few seconds, without hesitation, he carried the "Star Staff" and entered the interior of the palace through the open door.

Coffins of different shapes and colors were placed on both sides of the hall, and they were placed there quietly, as if even the existence itself had been weathered by death.

As Klein entered, the inside of these coffins suddenly made some noises, as if rusted joints were opening in sequence.

The gray-white mist around Klein became thicker, and all the coffins suddenly became quiet.

Ignoring these things, Klein stepped into the depths of the hall, where there was a staircase made of gray and white stone going down, and a huge stone tablet was erected at the entrance.

At the top of the stele stands a slender statue of a giant bird made of bronze, with various pale symbols on its wings.

Under the bird-shaped bronze statue, on the surface of the stele, the words derived from "Words of the Dead" appear to be very simplified birds of different shapes or snakes coiled into different shapes, forming two sentences with ambiguous meanings. Words:

"Even gods can't get rid of them;

"Even if you die, you will be detained."

Is this a warning to all creatures who come to Calderon not to go down this staircase? Does it lead directly to the "River of Eternal Darkness"? Klein's thoughts changed, and he carefully interpreted the words on the stone tablet.

In his opinion, this seems to mean that even if the true god of Sequence 0 gets close to the "River of Eternal Darkness", he will sink there and cannot escape, and even death itself will be affected by this Origin Essence. The abstract river confinement, although it will not disappear from now on, cannot be freed either.

In this way, just like the "Sea of ​​Chaos", without the protection of the source material, even if it is only close to the "River of Eternal Darkness", there will be terrifying changes... Klein retracted his gaze, sorted it out and pinned it to his chest. The bird-shaped gold ornament on the pocket went around the stone tablet with the bronze statue, and descended step by step along the gray-white staircase.

He stopped stealing distance to avoid crashing directly into danger.

In the gloomy, deadly and icy environment, the bird-shaped gold ornament on Klein's chest radiated a pale radiance, illuminating a small area, like a boat of life struggling in the tide of death.

After I don't know how long it took to go down, the "Origin Castle" aura around him swelled like a conditioned reflex and became extremely rich, like a gray-white silkworm cocoon.

At the same time, Klein turned his head slightly and heard a slight, illusory clatter.

This seems to indicate that deep underground, not far from the current location, there is a dark river flowing slowly.

The next second, Klein lowered his head and looked at his feet.

At some point in time, a dark, unfeeling water stream poured out.

On its surface, even light cannot exist.

"This is not the same as what I saw last time..." Klein frowned slightly.

When he went to Calderon to hunt the "spiritual predator" before, he caused a certain change, causing a large number of gray-white illusory tides to flow up at the bottom of the deep pit.

Both times, the colors are completely different.

Just as Klein's thoughts turned, at the bottom of the stone staircase, where the dark tide was coming in, a thin gray-white mist filled up upwards, combined with the illusory water, and expanded into a more foggy gray-white "light" water.

After the water flowed to Klein's feet, it quietly retreated, as if it was doing periodic fluctuations.

This thin gray-white mist is a bit familiar... Klein's expression suddenly became solemn.

After a pause for a few seconds, he continued to descend.

This time, the rising illusory tide drowned him, making his body light, making his emotions rapidly cold, and causing his thoughts to gradually decay.

If it wasn't for the protection of the "Origin Castle" aura around him, Klein doubted that he would passively and irresistibly merge into this tide.

Next, the gray-white "cocoon" rose and fell in the water, and as the tide fell, it slowly reached the end of the stairs.

Beyond the end is nothingness, and in the nothingness flows a straight, broad, illusory, dark river without color.

The river was so indistinct that it was difficult to see, because it was surrounded by a grayish-white mist like a barrier.

"Sure enough..." Seeing this, Klein couldn't help but whisper.

He is no stranger to this kind of fog. He has seen it behind the door of Banxi Ruins, in the easternmost part of the Land Abandoned by God, and under "Origin Castle"!

Unlike other places, part of the "River of Eternal Darkness" penetrated the gray and white fog, and merged with the latter to a certain extent, sometimes dark and sometimes pale.

This part of the river keeps rolling up and falling, like a tributary rushing through the darkness.

On both sides of the tributary, there are huge and pale stone pillars erected one after another, as if they are supporting something, preventing the other side from collapsing.

At this moment, among these stone pillars, on the edge of the tributaries, countless slightly blurred translucent figures walked back and forth, wandering, slowly but not restlessly.

Among them, the most eye-catching is a dazed figure that sometimes walks into the depths of the tributary, sometimes turns back, but can't escape the river.

It was so huge, about the same size as the surrounding stone pillars, it was covered in a deep black robe, and its sides were old.

Suddenly, it turned its head and looked at Klein.

Its face has obvious characteristics of the Southern Continent, but it has rotted away one after another, and has grown white feathers stained with light butter.

Klein knows him, he is Mr. Azik's father, the "Death God" of the Fourth Epoch:

"The Emperor" Salinger.
