To allow a Spirit Body to receive the protection of a dream and delay the corrosion of the dangerous night … This is similar to the need to sleep when night falls in the ruins of the battle of the gods …
Also, the power of the Forsaken Land of the Gods isn't controlled by the Goddess. Once it disappears into the darkness, it definitely won't enter the foggy town … Where will it lead to? Or is it to stay where it is, unable to come into contact with its companions or the real World until it starves or dies of old age … After reading Arrodes's answer, Klein came to a realization and roughly grasped the crux of the matter.
However, he felt that it wasn't necessarily useful. This was because Sun sought pure darkness in order to bury himself in ice that normally wouldn't melt to consume the Priest of Light potion. Once he entered a dream, he wouldn't be able to control his body to complete the most important step. That way, it would be meaningless no matter how long he lasted in the lightless darkness.
Yes, I'll wait for Little Sun to ask the Chief of the City of Silver and consider the specific plan based on his answer … Of course, before that, I'll first obtain the corresponding method from Leonard and understand how to create a temporary World of Dreams' darkness … Klein nodded slightly, acknowledging the answer given by the magic mirror.
As for the first method of accepting the corruption and transforming into a monster in the darkness, he didn't even consider it. In the Beyonder World, this was equivalent to suicide. It was almost impossible to save him.
Realizing that there was still one question he hadn't answered, Klein deliberated for a moment.
"Where can I obtain the potion formula for the Seer pathway's Sequence 3 Scholar of Yore?"
On the full-body mirror's surface, aqueous light rippled once again, illuminating a deep hall without any natural light source.
This scene was very familiar to Klein as he instantly recalled what it represented.
This was where Zaratul, who had turned into a monster, was hiding!
However, this time, deep in the hall, there was no longer the blurry and gigantic maggots.
Just as Klein's pupils dilated slightly, silver words appeared beneath the scene:
"Great Master, Zaratul has disappeared!
"I can't see 'Him' anymore!"
Gone … For a moment, Klein nearly forgot to breathe.
Although he had long known that Zaratul had returned — after all, this was a chain reaction caused by him opening the foggy town's door — he never expected that this big shot had already silently left the palace he used to live in. His whereabouts were unknown!
Even Arrodes is unable to discover "His" whereabouts … What is "He" plotting? The more Klein thought about it, the more chills ran down his spine.
As a Sequence 4 demigod, he was certain of one thing:
His control over the mysterious space above the gray fog was insufficient. For the time being, he could only restrain the uniqueness that Beyonders of the real World had attached to him, making it difficult for Beyonders of the corresponding pathways to see him. He was still unable to suppress the law of Beyonder characteristic convergence. And the gray fog had proven time and again that he had an invisible ability to attract Beyonders or Sealed Artifacts of the Seer pathway, Apprentice pathway, and Marauder pathway. Among them, the effect on the Seer pathway was the most obvious!
In addition, I'm considered a rather attractive Sequence 4 Bizarro Sorcerer. It's not impossible for Zaratul to suddenly come to Baekeland one day … Klein maintained his expression and said to the full-body mirror that was changing the scenery, "I'm not afraid.
"Got it."
The next scene that Arrodes presented was equally familiar to Klein. It was the Antigonus family's treasure trove at the peak of the Hornacis mountain range.
At the bottom of this scene, a line of silver words quickly appeared:
"Great Master, there's another possibility, but I can't tell what it is. I only know that it's easier than the previous two."
There's no Antigonus family notebook this time? That's right. It will guide the wielder to the main peak of the Hornacis mountain range to seek out the Antigonus family's treasure trove. It's something that can be combined with the previous option … What's the possibility that Arrodes can't tell? Based on my understanding of the factions of the Seer pathway, it's referring to praying to the Goddess? The Goddess is the Mother of Concealment. Therefore, if she wants Arrodes to see the answer, it can see it. If she doesn't want it to see it, it won't be able to tell anything … Klein's thoughts wandered as he quickly made the connection.
Of course, he didn't believe that directly praying would allow him to obtain the Scholar of Yore potion formula. It was just too ridiculous. It was like a child's game.
From his experience as a Nighthawk, he suspected that he needed to accumulate enough contribution points to obtain the Scholar of Yore potion formula from the Evernight Goddess through a ritual.
Accumulate contribution points … What a familiar phrase … Klein sighed silently as he came up with an idea.
Clearly, there was a hint to how to accumulate contribution points. It was to deal with the problem of the Charismatic Order's Artificial Death faction!
However, Klein suspected that the Goddess's Seer pathway potion formula was very likely only up to Scholar of Yore. There weren't any subsequent angelic steps. This was because the Antigonus family's angel hadn't directly perished back then. Instead, he had escaped to a secret palace and lost control, turning into a monster. He was in a half-sealed state. In addition, The Fool card was still there, but it hadn't been taken out.
At this moment, Klein was prepared to ask about Amon's avatar, but he suddenly recalled that in the rat demigod's memories, the Marauder pathway angel and Amon had warned "him" with a mirror!
As this thought flashed through his mind, Klein narrowed his eyes and looked at the full-body mirror. He nodded and said, "Alright, that's all for today.
Go back. If there's anything else in the future, I'll summon you. "
"Yes, Master! Goodbye, Master ~ Your loyal and humble servant, Arrodes, will be waiting to return to your side at any time! " On the mirror, beams of light gathered, either forming words or a figure waving its hand.
After everything returned to normal, Klein turned around and picked up the piece of paper with the symbol. He snapped his fingers, causing it to burst into scarlet flames.
As the ashes drifted down bit by bit, he opened his left hand. In his palm were two transparent maggots that shimmered with three-dimensional mysterious symbols.
The two maggots writhed gently as they had a life of their own. They filled the entire bedroom with a crazy and strange feeling of change, causing the surrounding light to flicker without any pattern. These were the Worms of Spirit that Klein had separated out.
Suddenly, Klein reached out his right palm and pressed down on the two transparent maggots.
An instant later, his palm stopped at a spot that happened to touch the Worm of Spirit.
He raised his palm and lowered it, paused, paused, and raised it again. After a few times, Klein suddenly exerted force with a deadpan expression.
Amidst the invisible and illusory cracking sound, his head suddenly felt a stabbing pain.
This made him feel like his soul was being torn apart. It was even more painful than being stabbed.
Klein used his Clown powers to control the twitching of his facial muscles. After a few seconds, he raised his right hand to rub his temples and mumbled inwardly, Indeed, the death of every Worm of Spirit will result in damage to my Spirit Body.
Indeed, the death of every Worm of Spirit brings damage to my Spirit Body. My current limit should be six. Yes, I'll stop trying for now. I'll see how long it will take for me to recover.
Thankfully, this is something that I can endure. Otherwise, if my marionette is destroyed in an intense battle and I don't have time to retrieve the Worms of Spirit, it would be dangerous …
Yes, it's different from Amon's Worm of Time avatars. A Bizarro Sorcerer's Worms of Spirit don't necessarily die when their marionettes are destroyed. Most of the time, a Bizarro Sorcerer can retrieve them in time because the distance between the main body and the marionette isn't that exaggerated …
After confirming the situation and waiting for the Beyonder characteristic contained in the Worms of Spirit to return to his main body, Klein rummaged for ingredients and set up a ritual to pray to The Fool.
After a series of back and forth operations, Klein used the remnant bodies of the two Worms of Spirit, two thin silver slices, and a portion of the complex three-dimensional symbols that he had previously copied from the item given to Snake of Mercury, Will Auceptin, to create two silver-black bullets.
The surface of the two bullets was engraved with indescribable strange patterns. They extended all the way inwards, as though they converged at a point in the middle. The overall glow was deep, but it didn't appear dim. Just a glance at it made one's thoughts feel sluggish.
Klein tossed the gold coin and used divination combined with his spiritual intuition to quickly grasp the abilities of the two bullets in his hand.
Once hit, the target would immediately enter a state of paralysis!
This state would be maintained for different lengths of time depending on the strength of one's Spirit Body. Even a Sequence 3 saint would be stiff for a second or two!
This exceeds the limits of my own abilities. Of course, the premise is that I can hit them. Yes, this stems from the augmentation of the gray fog's powers … These two bullets should be at the same level as the Fate Siphon charm. Although my Worms of Spirit aren't comparable to Amon and Pallez's Worms of Time, the mysterious space above the gray fog that I could previously use is clearly inferior to now … I'll call them, uh, Control Spirit Bullets … Klein took out Death Knell from his underarm holster, shook out the cylinder, and stuffed the two silver-black Control Spirit Bullets into it.
Following that, he spread out a piece of paper beside the altar and wrote:
"… Your next mission is to search for higher-level charms or Beyonder bullets. May God be with you.
"A so-and-so who has made three requests of you."
This letter was written to Patrick Bryan of the Charismatic Order's Artificial Death faction.
Wouldn't it be a waste to not use a subordinate? As Klein mumbled, he folded the letter and summoned Patrick Bryan's messenger at the altar.
On the surface of his desk, pitch-black flames strangely appeared and quickly gathered together, turning into a translucent bird with dark feathers.
The spirit world creature glanced at Klein, slowly lowered its head, and picked up the letter with its beak.
Seeing it disappear, Klein nodded slightly and muttered inwardly, "That's right.
Patrick's Contract Partner isn't of a low level either …
He quickly reined in his thoughts and took out another piece of paper.
"… I've already received permission from Concealment. You can attempt to gather items at the demigod level of the Marauder pathway. In addition, I've found a way to see through the theft and substitution of fate. You don't have to be too anxious.
"… Do you know how to create darkness that contains a temporary World of Dreams?
"… If you have the time, you can go to Tingen once and help me create Flaring Sun Bullets using 3-0782. This Mutated Sun Sacred Emblem contains a drop of the Eternal Blazing Sun's divine blood … Only by sufficiently increasing your strength will you be more confident in dealing with Amon's avatars …"
