Chapter 289 The Duo of Fear

589

The moment he heard the melody of "Katyusha", Klein thought whether it was a trap, but the next second he laughed to himself. If Edward Vaughan wanted to kill him, there would be no need for a trap.

"In other words, He is also waiting for the 'Devil Card' to approach!"

Klein's spirit perked up. He suddenly quickened his pace and tried to look ahead, towards the city center garden not far away.

In the garden in the middle of the street, people were coming and going, the middle class, fishermen and businessmen were bustling. The morning sun had just broken through the clouds, and the music was playing. Everything was so normal, even a little leisurely.

Edward Vaughan was completely integrated into this leisurely and pleasant environment, playing on the piano in the street garden.

Klein didn't think much, didn't think of any countermeasures or methods. He quickly retreated, returned to more than a hundred meters away and exchanged surveillance positions with Marionette, left the area near the street garden, and walked up to the Source Castle in the corner. Another telegram and letter was written.

"The devil appears in the city of Enmat via the angel."

Immediately afterwards, he returned to reality without stopping, took out the Adventurer harmonica from his arms, put it to his mouth, and played.

Reinette Tinichole, carrying four heads with blond hair and red eyes, walked out of the void, and her eight eyes turned to the garden in the middle of the street at the same time.

"Give it to Leonard Mitchell. He should not have left the previous sensing range." Klein asked the Marionette to take out a letter and a gold coin that he had prepared long ago, and handed them to the messenger lady.

He now speaks and acts like a marionette, only following predetermined orders and even restraining himself from reciting the honorable name of the goddess of the night in his heart, which will give the devil a premonition of crisis. If you really can't help but think about something, you will immediately meditate or use the things around you to distract your attention.

Any idea may be noticed by the "Devil" and 0-08!

To deal with them, you must put your thinking part on Origin Castle. In the real world, only act according to the predetermined plan!

At this moment, Klein caught a glimpse of a figure slowly moving out of the dark alley from the corner of his eye. This person seemed to be wandering around aimlessly, but he was faintly approaching the garden in the middle of the street. He was still carrying A strong unpleasant stench. There were large chunks of suspicious dark color on the black priest's robe. In his hand, he clutched a quill pen and a notebook whose original color could not be seen. This beggar-like man looked around expressionlessly, and anyone caught by his gaze would tremble involuntarily.

Klein silently recited the text that still impressed him in his mind, racking his brains to make himself dull and not thinking about anything. This was a kind of torture - but at this moment, Klein suddenly understood why Ince Zangwill had been hiding here for a long time.

"He has long been unable to control the thoughts of indiscriminate killing caused by the 'demon' pollution, and here..."

The wind carries the salty smell of the sea. Seven out of ten shops around sell seafood. Everyone smells fishy. The strong smell of sea water makes the peculiar smell on Ince Zangwill less obtrusive. .

Other than that, Klein didn't speak, nor did he think about anything else related to 0-08 and the devil. The marionette watched the messenger lady return to the spirit world. Then, the "winner" marionette immediately turned around and walked to the nearest telegraph office. He handed all the already written telegrams, addresses and gold pounds to the staff, and urged them to send them immediately. Report.

"Ince Zangwill appears in the garden in the center of Port Enmatt."

As the radio waves flew by, two telegrams were delivered to various strongholds of the Church of the Night in several nearby cities.

…

Suddenly, Leonard was inspired and looked to the left.

As a "gatekeeper", Dai Li has already set her sights on that place. I saw a letter appearing out of nowhere and falling to the bottom of the gas street lamp.

Leonard didn't care to avoid Dai Li, he hurriedly bent down to pick up the letter and quickly opened it.

The content of the letter is very simple, only two lines of words:

"Street Garden."

"An angel of the devil's path appears."

Angels from the devil's path were attracted? !

Dai Li also saw this line of text, and her and Leonard's expressions suddenly became solemn. Such aggregation ability was stronger than all of them imagined. What exactly does Ince Zangwill have in him?

Dai Li immediately summoned a spirit and ordered it to immediately inform Sost and others of the news. Although the angel could only leave it to the church and senior officials, the evacuation of the personnel could be carried out immediately!

Leonard thought of something, he pursed his lips, turned to Daley and said:

"Ma'am, please help me cover my whereabouts."

While he was speaking, the glove on his left hand had become transparent, and his right hand was inserted into his pocket, holding the "Luck Stealer" charm.

Dai Li was silent for a second and said very seriously:

"Take me with you."

"At least you fought, and I didn't get to do anything."

Leonard's expression changed continuously, his mouth opened slightly, but in the end he said nothing and grabbed Dai Li's shoulder.

The two of them immediately disappeared down a street where few people came and went.

…

At this time, Klein had arrived at Origin Castle again.

He accommodated the "Tyrant Card", and the "Poseidon Scepter" set off a strong wind, pushing all the pedestrians in the park in the middle of the street away crazily. Even those who didn't want to leave, they could immediately experience the feeling of flying.

Through the vision of Source Castle, he saw that Ince Zangwill was still trying to get closer to the garden, while Edward Vaughan stopped playing at some point and looked at his hands or keys quietly.

"It seems that the Church of the Night has responded..."

He immediately shifted his attention, and an exaggerated silver-white lightning penetrated the deep sky, fell straight down, and struck Ince Zangwill.

But the moment lightning appeared in the real world, Ince Zangwill's figure suddenly disappeared, leaving only a transparent and blurry spirit in place. The latter was struck by lightning and was instantly annihilated.

He seemed to have just woken up and instinctively avoided the blow with his "premonition of crisis".

The corners of Klein's mouth quickly opened and turned up, revealing a funny smile.

He then spoke in a low voice in ancient Hermes:

"Disaster!"

In his right palm, the silver-gray talisman suddenly ignited with a dark light. At the suggestion of "Serpent of Mercury" Will Asceptin, he used a drop of the other party's blood and precious metals as ritual materials, bit the bullet and prayed to the "Night Goddess" to create the calamity for the domain of disaster.

This is the gift he prepared for Ince Zangwill.

This is an arrow of revenge.

This is God's curse!

Will Auceptin's suggestion shocked him, but in order to take revenge, Klein carefully chose to try using the Marionette. He did not disappear from this world quietly, but also received a normal response from the goddess. As a favored person of the true Creator and the current divine envoy of the Aurora Society, Klein did not dare to think about it carefully. He could only blame it on the inscrutability of God, and Or the "Night Goddess" also hopes that Ince Zangwill will die soon.

At this time, countless sharp blade-like lights suddenly erupted from the corner of the garden in the middle of the street. Klein suddenly looked around and was shocked to see Edward Vaughn and the piano in front of him slowly cracking countless gaps, and a strong burst of light erupted from the gaps. The silver light, the whole person was shattered like this!

Klein took a breath.

He suddenly had a strange idea——

Can I drink the potion directly now?

At the same time, there seemed to be another person suddenly in that area, a blond priest in white robes who seemed strange but familiar appeared out of thin air.

Thinking of the secret relationship between the Psychological Alchemy Society and the Twilight Hermit Society, and a piece of content in Emperor Russell's diary, Klein suddenly understood and became determined about what to do next:

This is Adam, the master of the Twilight Hermits, the son of the Creator, the "Angel of Utopia", who wants to obtain "0-08"!

At this time, two figures quickly sketched out next to them, one was Leonard Mitchell with dark hair and blue eyes, wearing transparent gloves, and the other was Daly Simone with blue eye shadow and the same blush.

They came at just the right time. The enemy's misfortune often means that one's own side is lucky enough!

The first thing Dai Li saw was that figure she would never forget, and the flames of hatred suddenly arose in her eyes.

at the same time.

On the vast plain where night herbs and moonflowers grew, 0-17 held a long sword that glowed like the morning sun in his hand, his expression still dull. After confirming that the demons in the square would lose their lives before they could resist, he turned around and prepared to leave, and the plain began to gradually disappear following his footsteps.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind quietly approached his back, and someone whispered to 0-17's ear softly and slowly:

“a-no-el——ca-men-avo-li”

"Nice to meet you, dear Mother of Heaven."

"du-pa-dume-en-toh-cisi"

"Did you sleep well last night?"

0-17's footsteps suddenly stopped, his dark eyes flashed with a little light, and a crack appeared on his face that had always been as dull as a stone sculpture. He trembled, struggled, and tried to turn his head, but was tightly restrained by another force.

"armo-ne-so-"

"eni-kisi-halu"

"Whether it's a sweet dream or a nightmare, it's time to wake up."

The long-lost language of the Kingdom of Night came out clearly from the mouth of the Outer God, and the hoarse voice was like the sweetest blessing. At that moment, the demon wolf named "Mother of Heaven" in this body opened its eyes. His thoughts were abandoned into the hidden world. He, who had been wandering in the darkness for countless years, relied on these two short sentences to suddenly see the light appearing in the distance and feel his own existence again.

"Ah...ah..."

He heard his own heartbeat, felt his limbs and facial features, and saw the world. The middle part of His robe was stretched open, and four ferocious wolf claws clawed at the surroundings, and then instinctively folded in front of him elegantly like a human lady.

Without thanking or saying goodbye, "Mother of Heaven" only stayed stunned for half a second before she realized her situation and disappeared immediately.

"Mother of Heaven" took away a copy of Sequence One. The red moon shone brightly in an instant, but the faint shadow was no longer there.

There was only a sneer that seemed to be an illusion.

…

Outside, Port Enmatt.

This long-planned revenge has finally come to an end.

The betrayer who had been cornered screamed in the lightning storm in the form of a polluted terrifying mythical creature, and the 0-08 he had discarded after losing his mind happily wrote on the ground: "An unknown existence is attracted by the battle. He came over and sympathized with Ince Zangwill’s plight and decided to help him and take him away from the spirit world!”

Dailly Simone, who is constantly looking for opportunities to open the "Gate to the Underworld" to interfere with Ince Zangwill, is keenly aware that unknown creatures are traveling through the spiritual world and approaching this area. A bad premonition suddenly emerged in her heart, as if she had already seen Ince Zangwill escape easily with this unexpected change, and disappeared without a trace.

She felt an uncontrollable chill in her body, and it seemed as if a flashback of herself, angry, desperate and powerless when she learned that Dunn was dead and the murderer was at large, flashed before her eyes. All her hard work and desperate efforts were for today. Almost without hesitation, she reached for the hidden pocket of her clothes and reached for the "Spiritual Flower" potion that was placed there and she had no control over.

At this moment, she paused for a moment, looking at Leonard who was struggling to survive in the distance, her expression became gentle and sweet.

"That's too late."

Then, her smile became bright and she clutched the "Spiritual Flower" tightly:

"No need to apologize. I love you too."

She drank the "spiritual flower" in one gulp.

The "winner" marionette holding his head and hiding in the distance saw this and immediately ran at high speed, approaching Dai Li's position.

…

The light and shadow swayed in front of his closed eyes. Leonard clenched his hands into fists and shouted in a low voice:

"Old man!"

There was no voice echoing in his mind, no one was assisting him, and Pales Zoroaster was still sleeping.

Leonard's breathing suddenly became heavy, and his head couldn't help but move left and right following the flash of light, and then his voice was slightly hoarse and he shouted in an obviously panic:

"Old man!"

"Old man!!"

The voice gradually became lower and disappeared into the sound of thunder. Leonard's head dropped a little, and his face was once again filled with self-blame and pain.

Suddenly, his expression became decisive, his face distorted, he opened his mouth, and said in a low voice in ancient Hermes:

“A fool who is not of this age;

“The mysterious master above the gray fog;

"The King of Yellow and Black who controls good luck!"

As soon as the prayers ended, a strange picture appeared in his mind:

Ince Zangwill, who had transformed into a wolf-shaped terrifying monster, was running quickly to avoid lightning strikes, trying to attack them from time to time.

Leonard was startled for a moment, then laughed, tears falling from his eyes.

He raised his left palm without hesitation, put the glove against his forehead, and then tightly held the "Luck Stealer" charm with his right hand.

"destiny!"

As the difficult and mysterious ancient Hermetic words reverberated, Leonard allowed the transparent book in front of him to condense, turned to one of the pages in the ethereal chant of "I came, I saw, I recorded", and locked the The eight-legged monster with many white feathers.

Silver-white lightning suddenly burst out, and Leonard Mitchell threw the spell with a ferocious expression and shouted:

"Go to hell! Ince Zangwill!"

He had been waiting for this sound for a long time, rehearsing it countless times in his mind.

590

The ground shook slightly.

At the end of this grand revenge story, shot after shot is fired, taking blood from the defectors.

Klein didn't give the other party a chance to tell him his last words, and he didn't want to know about his sad past. He then took out the remaining tarot card from his pocket and threw it on Ince Zangwill's body.

This is a reversed "Star" card.

At this time, a figure appeared not far away, bending down to pick up the dim quill.

This figure wears a simple white robe, has a light golden beard that covers the lower half of his face, and has a silver cross pendant hanging on his chest. He looks like the most ordinary priest. He is none other than the King of Angels, Adam!

At the moment when this person suddenly appeared and picked up the quill 0-08, Leonard, who was trying to rescue Daly with medicine and the "winner" marionette in the distance, his pupils shrank suddenly and his hands trembled uncontrollably.

Adam looked at the quill in his hand, then at the tarot card, and smiled warmly at Klein:

"All gifts from fate have already been marked with a secret price, right?"

After saying that, he turned around, walked step by step towards the broken piano, and said something like a chant:

"In the presence of an 'audience', Klein Moretti completes a gorgeous drama, directing a magical murder in which an angel and two demigods die, at the end of the play..."

"No."

A voice interrupted suddenly.

Everyone was startled by the sound, and even Adam turned his head immediately.

But then, Adam's expression suddenly became dull and distorted, as if he had experienced some great pain, and he half-knelt on the ground without making any sound.

It seemed that the tide was rising, and the sound of waves appeared near the silent square. In the eyes of the remnants of the old days, the owner of that voice was sitting on a bench outside the square, seeming to be watching everything, with an indifferent or even mean appearance that matched the voice. But in the eyes of other people and even the gods, this is the trees and everything that can be called plants in the entire Port of Enmat swaying slightly at the same time, their branches and leaves rubbing against each other in the wind, making a ghost cry. sneer:

"It was under my witness..."

In Klein's suddenly widened eyes, the strange and powerful man who had met twice ignored Adam, walked up casually, and picked up the extraordinary characteristics that were separated from the dead Edward Vaughn. The scattered flesh and blood of demons and angels gathered at His feet, turning into something like a human skin mask with eyes tightly closed.

The gray-haired strong man picked up the human skin mask, and the demonic characteristics naturally merged into his hands.

The man raised his head again, clapped with a hint of approval, looked at Klein with approval, and then looked at Dai Li in the distance.

"Thank you guys."

He laughed softly and said, "I will give you a thank you gift."

As these words fell, Dai Li, who was already unconscious and slowly mutating into a monster, suddenly coughed.

The feathers and scales on her body disappeared quickly, and the uncontrollable spirituality on her body gradually returned to stability!

At the same time, those light cyan eyes suddenly looked at him, and Klein suddenly felt that he was in danger. But before he could react, the shadow behind him stood up instantly, and a black and white eye opened in the middle of the shadow's head! The shadow stretched out his hands and grabbed his shoulders and arms, instantly dragging Klein into the world of shadows!

"ha."

The Declined King laughed.

He was now in a good mood, animated, and had many words of thanksgiving to say to the gods of the earth and to Adam.

He walked straight towards Adam, the decaying world spread out from under his feet, the chill and icy air enveloped the King of Angels, His blond hair began to dim, and the dazzling golden scales climbed up to the withered gray, the breath of dying And countless emotions called "hatred", "despair", "pain", "joy", "giving up"... exploded in his mind in an instant. It is true that the audience has absolute divinity, and they are firm in their Goals and ideas will not be disturbed by any external emotions - but what if these extreme emotions come from Himself?

"Thank you, Adam."

He leaned down and said gently: "According to the agreement, you are now my trophy, and I will give additional compensation to my allies."

A dead branch passed through the heart, and the tiny branches wrapped around the heart and rushed to every corner of the blood vessels. The immobile curse stopped all of Adam's subsequent activities, and he slowly sank into the desolate kingdom of God.

The shaking of the earth intensified, and the sea water gradually spread from the city's port. The sea water was not blue, but red!

The world trembled violently, the sky darkened, and countless silver-white thunder flashed in the dense dark clouds. In the apocalyptic atmosphere, a dark land like countless ferocious and huge skeletons slowly floated from the sea, and the sea water emerged from it. When it flows, it turns into red blood, and all living marine creatures nearby are attracted there. They begin to entangle, fight, and die, becoming part of that terrifying land.

The sunken continent, Australia in the old era, the "Abyss" was summoned by the true god and resurfaced here.

During the moment of suspended animation, the Declined King did not rush to expose himself. Instead, he increased his ability to aggregate extraordinary characteristics and brought the "Abyss" here - He was about to become the only Abyss. Naturally, where He was, the Abyss should be. Where!

The Declined King looked at the thunder and lightning that never struck the sky, and then ignored it. He stepped on the sea water like a red carpet, walked slowly towards the land flowing with blood and lava, and picked up the "Devil Card" and 0-08 that fell at his feet. The seal on the card was opened, and demons with the faces of Edward Vaughn flashed across it. Sequence 1 was lit up, and finally the image stayed at the empty Sequence 0.

A red light flashed past, and a new image suddenly appeared on it——

Edward Vaughn stood under the dark sky, wearing a crown of obsidian thorns, and the cloak of his robe connected to the bloody earth beneath his feet. There was a smile on His face, which seemed to be taunting, but also seemed to be a welcome from hell.

"Sequence 0: Abyss!"
