Chapter 535 It’s Really Weird
814
"Where is my brother, Klein Moretti?"
Klein's heart suddenly beat violently, his emotions fluctuated violently, and Bethel's body involuntarily made a "swallowing saliva" motion.
There was no response. After a moment of rustling noises, Klein heard the familiar voice chanting words such as "The Beloved of Knowledge and the Spiritual World" and "The Savior of Silver City and Moon City".
This should be the honorable name written by the God of Thunder for him. Combined with his miracle master ritual, the first two sentences define the scope of this honorary name between the Demon of Knowledge and him, and the last sentence directly writes His real name and sequence... The prayers Klein heard now were mainly for "Poseidon" and "The Fool". When he heard his name directly from Benson's prayer, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
Once again, Klein's eyes fell on the white mask in front of him.
At this moment, both the God of War and Bethel disappeared from Klein's eyes. The faceless white mask floating in mid-air - the uniqueness of 'The Fool' firmly attracted his attention as if alive. With all his attention, he couldn't look away.
"Getting uniqueness is equivalent to getting power..."
"After gaining divinity, I will also restrain myself from hurting Benson and Melissa. Under this premise, regardless of ignoring or other actions, it is better than me acting under the eyes of the God of Thunder!"
"Antigonus can affect all the 'divineer' path items just by using extraordinary aggregation. If I get the 'uniqueness', I should be able to do similar things. In this way, I can become a magician in a short time." powerful……"
His mind seemed to be withdrawn from the current chaotic battle situation. Antigonus's weak roar could not attract his attention. Bethel's reminder and the God of War's angry rebuke seemed to come from a very far away place. I can not hear you. Klein's heartbeat accelerated, and what made his heartbeat even faster was that Bethel still didn't seem to notice the uniqueness of "The Fool".
"Antigonus was originally unable to defeat the God of War. His characteristics belong to me. I help him fulfill his last wish. This is perfect!"
"We can't let Bethel get the uniqueness first! Otherwise, I will be completely expelled from the competition of the Lord of Mysteries!"
An indescribable impulse instantly took over Klein's thoughts, making him want to rush forward and put the white mask without facial features on his face. In this flash of lightning, it seemed that all the difficulties and tortures in front of him suddenly had a solution, and it was also the only solution - that is to immediately obtain the uniqueness of Antigonus, and then become the Attendant of Mysteries.
Then Klein gained divinity and power!
Divinity can help him respond perfectly to Benson and Melissa, proving that he is not Klein Moretti. They are of no use to shake him. The power can allow him to go further, become the King of Angels, and get closer faster. The position of "The Fool" in Sequence 0.
Klein dared to think and act. He directly began to outline in his mind the "Return Spell" given to him by the Demon of Knowledge. As long as he completely outlines these continuous patterns in his mind through meditation, he can let his spirit return to himself. in a real body.
According to his current idea, as long as he goes back immediately, seeks the help of the Demon of Knowledge, and re-enters the spiritual world area that has been wrapped in chaotic space, he can directly contact and snatch the uniqueness of "The Fool". Although the ceremony to be promoted to "Attendant of Secrets" has not been completed, the opportunity cannot be missed. Now is his best chance to gain powerful power at once, and the Demon of Knowledge will definitely do the same -
"what's on your mind?"
At this time, Bethel finally noticed Klein's chaotic emotions. In His heart, Klein was not a person who would let his moods fluctuate so much, or even be a little emotional. His chaotic and complicated heart still attracted Bethel's attention.
And the most important thing is that Bethel found that his body always wanted to be close to the God of War and Antigonus. This was definitely not his own idea - he wanted to stand eight hundred miles away and fly a kite. Throw away the "record" and transform into a true god-level surface-to-air missile launch base until the God of War is blown up - then this can only be Klein's idea, but why would he take the initiative to get close to the enemy?
Bethel's question was like a bucket of cold water pouring down his head, suddenly interrupting Klein's random thoughts and pulling him out of his abnormal fanaticism and paranoia about the uniqueness of "The Fool".
"Me? I just..."
Klein paused and suddenly found that Benson's prayer in his ears had become much clearer, and his mind seemed to have become clearer as if a layer of cloud had been lifted.
Thinking about it again, Klein suddenly became afraid.
"Where did I get the confidence just now? I actually thought I could take away His uniqueness in front of the God of War and Antigonus?"
"Where did I get the confidence to think that I could be promoted just like that...?"
"Indeed, if I were still in my body... I should be uncontrollably panicked and uneasy now. As long as I show such emotions, the God of Thunder will notice... But how am I qualified to touch it now? Touching uniqueness? 'I' will disappear instantly..."
He once again looked at the place where the uniqueness of "The Fool" was, and found that there was no trace of the faceless white mask there.
Sure enough... He was a little shocked, but he felt that it was expected.
It must have been the high sequence of this pathway that had an impact on me. Antigonus was so close to me that it was natural for me to want to be close to him. And "fooling"...is that what it's called? This true god-level authority reduced my ability to judge and confused my thoughts, making me want to immediately obtain the extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness of Antigonus, so I had a series of irrational thoughts.
Klein quickly analyzed it, relaxed a little, and readjusted his state.
"I was distracted just now." He answered Bethel. "Antigonus's 'foolishness' affected my judgment and cognition."
"Yeah." Bethel didn't say anything.
Immediately, Klein turned his sight in the direction of the enemy again, only to find that the dying Antigonus, who was lying on the side, actually had one eye open, the pupil was raised, and the dark beast eyes were looking at it without blinking. Him, while the other eye was closed tightly.
The moment Klein's will and his eyes met, a joking laughter suddenly appeared in his ears:
"Ah."
In an instant, chills exploded on Klein's scalp.
This was not the voice of Antigonus.
…
"no response."
Benson chanted the name eight times in a row, but did not get any response. This result gave him a strange sense of peace of mind.
If there is a response to the honorable name, it proves that Klein has indeed become a terrible cultist, and may even be engaged in some unimaginable anti-social and anti-human activities. However, Benson hopes that "Miracle Master Klein" will respond to him—— When he learned that Klein might not be dead but had become a cultist, Benson actually felt ecstatic for a moment. The news that his brother was still alive almost made him shed tears.
Of course, it’s best to get no response…
It's certainly a good thing that Klein is still alive, but what if that is no longer Klein, or that Klein is no longer the person they are familiar with? After calming down, Benson would rather it was the church that was at fault and everything tonight was just a strange dream of his.
He looked back at Melissa, expecting to get no response and that he and Melissa could return home as soon as possible.
The punisher looked at the time. He thought Benson was anxious because he didn't get a response, so he comforted him with a few words:
"Except for a very small number of evil gods who manifest their existence in various ways, praying to hidden existences is inherently risky, and it is normal to not get a response."
"Keep reading. If you don't get a response within an hour, you can stop."
Benson couldn't help but asked expectantly:
"Then can we go back? It's very late, sir. My sister has school tomorrow morning and I have to go to work."
The punisher smiled: "This is not my decision, Mr. Moretti. Regardless of whether you can get prayers tonight, you and Miss Melissa will stay in the church for a while until the cult is suspected. Until we arrest and bring Klein Moretti to justice."
"How could you do this?!"
Benson was shocked and couldn't help but raise his voice:
"You are infringing on our right to personal freedom. Are the Church of Thunder illegally detaining believers of the Church of Night? We are believers of the Goddess of Night. Even if you really want to do this, I will apply to go to the goddess's church!"
The Punisher took a deep breath and then exhaled it. He was too lazy to explain too much to the civilians who didn't even know the existence of extraordinary power:
"...If you have any objections, go and tell your brother, don't yell at me. You were brought here by us because of him. I'm just following the procedure. Mr. Moretti, you are also from the government." Employees, please don’t embarrass me.”
Every time he said a word, the feeling of oppression on his body became stronger.
The wind seemed to be blowing in the room again, forcing him to bend down and lower his head. Benson's Adam's apple rolled as he wanted to say something, but finally chose to give in.
"Thank you for your understanding." The Punisher no longer looked at him, but walked to the side and sat down facing the Holy Emblem of the God of Thunder.
"Keep reading."
Benson had no choice but to move his body, sat down on the wooden chair in front of the Holy Emblem again, and said with a little helplessness:
"The one blessed by knowledge and the spiritual world..."
…
Klein opened his eyes suddenly and found that he was lying on a bench in the Mystery Cathedral.
The door of the cathedral was locked, and there was no one inside. Only the quaint ever-burning lamps on the wall were still burning.
He sat up quickly, groped his body up and down, checked his spirit, and confirmed that his extraordinary characteristic of "Miracle Master" had not been taken away by Antigonus, and that the will of another person did not appear in his spirit.
The moment that strange sneer appeared in his ears, for Klein, the whole world suddenly became quiet.
Because his spiritual intuition was on strike.
There was no sense of crisis, no guidance, no enlightenment, and even his own spirituality began to be affected - so Klein simply sketched out the "Return Technique" and directly left the battle situation and returned to his body.
"Mr. Bethel didn't seem to see the uniqueness of 'The Fool' from beginning to end, nor did he hear the laughter, which proved that that guy's target was not Him, but me... It's unimaginable that my priority is actually Before a 'door' true god..."
The shock and fear in Klein's heart have not completely dissipated, and he broke out in a cold sweat at that moment.
In the quiet and dim environment, he looked at the flickering flames of the long lamp on the wall and slowly calmed down. Klein pressed his eyebrows, stood up and searched, and found that the small door at the back of the cathedral was unlocked.
"It's really embarrassing. I was so frightened that I came back. What should I do next?"
He approached the small door, and muttering to himself in a low voice gave Klein a sense of security again. Pushing open the back door, he caught a glimpse of something shiny out of the corner of his eye.
Klein turned around and looked. It was a mirror.
The mirror is the most ordinary style, surrounded by a wooden frame with a simple carved pattern (Klein discovered that the Demon of Knowledge is particularly fond of wooden products). There are hand-held candlesticks and an unlit candle on the table in front. The candles should be prepared for the priests who are on duty at night, and there is nothing special about them. But now, because he opened the door, the faint light from the church came in, causing a fainter reflection to appear on the mirror.
Klein didn't think much, he closed the door and walked out along the path to the back door.
At the moment when he turned around, his movements suddenly stopped.
In the dark environment, Klein's pupils dilated uncontrollably. At the same time, his spiritual intuition, which had been completely shut down, suddenly started moving again, sketching a picture in his mind:
Klein stood in pure darkness;
But the mirror behind him still seemed to be emitting a faint light, because in the mirror world, the candle placed in front of the mirror was lit.
The corners of Klein's mouth in the mirror were raised to an incredible arc, and he was looking at his back with a smile.
This sudden spiritual intuition completely went against Klein's subjective will, because Klein had already seen the abnormal reflection "looking at himself" in the mirror out of the corner of his eye the moment he closed the door, but he wanted to pretend not to see it. Just leave. Now, the picture that emerged in his mind clearly told him that it was not up to you to decide whether to leave or not.
What made Klein even more frustrated was that the picture outlined by spiritual intuition in his mind did not end yet, but started to move like an animation!
Therefore, he saw Klein's mouth opening and closing in the mirror, and he "heard" spiritual sounds in his ears in real time.
"It's useless, you have already been a part of me..."
"Don't resist, this is just awakening, leave everything to me."
Klein didn't say anything. He found that his body could still move freely, so he immediately walked out as if he hadn't heard anything.
But there was already a storm in his heart - the Lord of Mysteries! Is this the Lord of Mysteries? ! The living blessed Xuanhuang Tianzun is talking to himself! His will was revived in Antigonus! ——It’s impossible for me to go crazy because of the influence of Antigonus. I imagined such a big drama, and also helped my imaginary “Lord of Mysteries” to come up with the lines for his debut, right? !
Klein crossed the path quickly and reached the square in the center of this "mouth"-shaped building in a few seconds. The sky above the square is covered with a large piece of glass, and a simple star map is also carved to help people gather, discuss and stargazing in the square.
But that voice still followed him like a shadow in his ears.
"I know what you are thinking, and I can give you strength..."
"...I will not help the creatures you want to protect, but I will not harm them either..."
"It's not that I keep my promise, but that they are too weak and not worthy of my attention at all..."
"The only one worthy of my attention is the All-Knowing and the Almighty, and your purpose is the same."
Klein continued to remain silent.
There was no reason, he just felt that he shouldn't speak, after all, the person he was talking to now was a top fraudster. ——When faced with fraudulent calls and text messages, not responding is the best option!
TBC
——————
Having said all that, why not be more direct?
Klein thought in his mind like a provocateur: If you just say that you can give me all your power and agree on a time for resurrection, then I might agree. I would be a fool to write a blank check here now. I'll get back to you!
