Klein turned around and looked at the figure that was both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time.
He had imagined all sorts of situations where Utopia would be attacked, but he never expected such a scene.
If Amon had "Parasitized" German Sparrow as a marionette, with Klein's present level and the Worms of Spirit monitoring him all day long in Sefirah Castle, he would definitely have discovered the problem immediately. And if Zaratul were to transfer the Spirit Body Threads, he would only be able to hide it from him for a short period of time. Furthermore, he needed the help of an angel like the Knowledge Emperor or a Servant of Concealment. It was impossible to achieve the effect of such a sudden attack. Only the human attributes given by a Spectator would slowly ferment without any abnormalities on the surface.
To prevent such a situation, he could only periodically sever the Spirit Body Threads, allowing the marionette to enter a dead state. That way, regardless of whether it had any humanity to begin with, it would eventually cease to exist.
Unfortunately, Klein had never heard of such a method before. He was only guarding against the invasion of Virtual Personas on his marionettes.
This was perhaps the power of a Visionary. He could give every fictitious and insubstantial life a unique humanity.
When the stiff and cold face entered Klein's eyes, he felt a force push him.
He immediately fell backwards, falling from the layers of ruins of the old city and out of the fog of history.
During this process, he wanted to control himself, but he was helpless. This was because the wooden stake that was nailed to his heart had sealed all his Beyonder powers.
With a thought, Klein looked at German Sparrow and snapped his fingers.
Pa!
The Worms of Spirit in Sefirah Castle received his will and abandoned the marionette's Spirit Body Threads. They picked up the Staff of the Stars and prepared to deal a fatal blow to Klein, killing himself.
Once his true body died, Klein would be able to revive above the gray fog and escape his predicament.
After knowing that Adam was the mastermind, he no longer held any hopes of getting lucky.
At this moment, a stone square floating in the void appeared beneath Klein's feet.
Pitch-black stone pillars stood up, propping up a magnificent and holy cathedral that enveloped Klein.
The corpse cathedral, Adam's corpse cathedral, the divine kingdom of a Visionary!
Rumble!
Countless silver bolts of lightning descended from Sefirah Castle, piercing through the fog of history and striking the cathedral, but they failed to shake it at all.
At the same time, in the ancient palace, the figure sitting at The Fool's seat suddenly collapsed to the side, collapsing into a vortex formed from transparent maggots.
The vortex extended out slippery and strange tentacles that slapped the surroundings crazily, overturning the junk pile and destroying the long mottled table.
Klein's avatars had their connection severed, and since his main body wasn't truly dead, they had lost control and gone crazy, just like Zaratul. of of of Klein's expression.
In the old city before the First Epoch, Gehrman Sparrow, who was wearing a half top hat and a black trench coat, looked up at Sefirah Castle with a rather complicated expression.
In essence, he was a corpse. After the Spirit Body Threads were abandoned, he naturally couldn't maintain his existence.
"Adam" of the "God." He was, "" was "" a "was a" of. "
German Sparrow slowly collapsed as he cast his gaze at the rooms in the old city.
He had died in the ruins.
…
Klein landed on the ground and stood in the middle of the cathedral. He saw that every pillar, arch, and dome was embedded with skulls of different races. Most of them were pale white, and they were densely packed together, staring at outsiders with empty eyes.
On the walls, windows, and doors of the cathedral, transparent, distorted, and pained faces appeared, completely separating the interior from the outside world.
And at the very front of the cathedral stood a cross that was more than a hundred meters tall.
In front of the cross, there were rows of black seats with backrests.
Dressed in a simple white robe, with a pale golden beard and a silver cross pendant hanging from his neck, Adam stood under the cross and faced the rows of seats like a priest who was about to preach to his believers.
"His" expression was warm and his eyes were clear, as though he was inviting Klein to listen to the scriptures.
Klein looked down at the wooden stake that was stuck in his chest. He slowly walked to the first row of seats and sat in the middle without a care in the world.
To a true Mythical Creature formed from many Worms of Spirit, a chest injury wasn't fatal. The main purpose of the ancient blood-stained cross-shaped stake was to seal Beyonder powers.
If not for a true god standing in front of him, Klein could have used his physical strength to pull out the cross-shaped stake and remove the seal.
At that moment, he didn't make the attempt because he was afraid that "not daring" would turn into "not wanting" to "not doing."
"I never expected you to directly interfere in this matter. If you wanted to deal with me, you didn't need to wait until today." Klein looked at his blood-stained shirt and seriously voiced his puzzlement.
He wasn't afraid at all, as though he was certain that Adam wouldn't kill him.
Adam held the silver cross pendant with one hand and calmly said, "Before this, you were able to play a significant role in many areas."
"You" took two steps forward and continued with a clear gaze.
"He" took two steps forward and continued with clear eyes.
"When Amon came to steal the corpse cathedral, I made a deal with 'Him.' 'He' helped me obtain the first Blasphemy Slate, and I helped 'Him' capture you."
Is that so … Klein suddenly understood.
On the one hand, Adam didn't wish to be obstructed by the True Creator and other existences when he became a god, and on the other hand, he wanted to obtain the first Blasphemy Slate. Therefore, he used the Unshadowed Crucifix and other methods to push Klein to head to the Giant King's Court and open the door to Sasrir's slumber, attracting the attention of the True Creator and other existences. At the same time, he stole the first Blasphemy Slate at the critical moment through "His" brother, Amon.
And to capture Klein, who was about to gain initial control of Sefirah Castle, it was definitely best for the Visionary to arrange it.
Although Amon and Adam are usually estranged, it's easier for brothers to work together than others … Klein nodded slightly and turned his head to look at the stained glass that protruded a distorted face.
"I also didn't expect Zaratul to cooperate with you. Isn't 'He' afraid of becoming food for Amon?"
When Klein created Utopia, he had expected Amon to attack and Zaratul to destroy it, but he never expected "Him" to cooperate in a certain sense.
From his point of view, the chances of Zaratul completely relying on the Mother Tree of Desire was higher than this, unless Adam had unknowingly arranged for "Him."
Adam's clear eyes were filled with pity.
"To 'Him,' you becoming a Great Old One means that 'He' will definitely perish. But if Amon becomes a Great Old One, 'He' only needs to show 'His' loyalty and 'His' status and level can still be maintained. The Lord of the Mysteries will always need an Attendant of the Mysteries.
"Therefore, 'He' chose to cooperate with me. During this process, if 'He' can seize the opportunity to turn you into a marionette before me and use you to enter Sefirah Castle and become the owner of that sefirah, 'He' will have the right to request a chance to face Antigonus from Evernight and have a final competition with Amon. Otherwise, 'He' will completely admit defeat and be loyal to Amon.
"On this point, 'He' is very decisive."
"It's not your style to explain so much." Klein replied casually before asking with a frown, "Becoming a Great Old One doesn't require all the Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics of the corresponding pathway?"
He had deduced this from the relationship between the ancient God of the Sun and the eight Archangel Kings. However, he believed that he had to become a Great Old One or a quasi-Blade Old One first before dividing the characteristics.
Adam replied with a gentle expression,
"For neighboring pathways, all 'He' needs is a Uniqueness and a Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic. Forcefully occupying more will easily result in losing control. Therefore, after Zaratul pledges allegiance to Amon, 'He' has a chance of becoming a King of Angels. As for 'He', 'He' has no way of pledging allegiance to you because 'He' can't split a Sequence 2 avatar like the Marauder pathway. 'He' can use 'Him' to steal the main body's Spirit Body, consciousness, and psyche, turning 'Him' into the main body."
A Seer's marionette avatar and a Marauder's Worm of Time avatar were fundamentally different in this aspect. The former involved Spirit Body Threads, while the latter only relied on themselves.
Furthermore, the reason why a Marauder angel could do this was because "Their" Sequence 2 was the Trojan Horse of Destiny.
Just as Klein nodded, he suddenly saw Adam turn his body, revealing something beneath the cross.
It was a gray stone slab with mottled marks on its surface, making it look rather ancient.
It was very similar to the first Blasphemy Slate, but it didn't have the abnormally ancient feeling.
On it were words that seemed to be the source of all languages. Written on it were Sequence names and potion formulas.
"The second Blasphemy Slate?" Klein asked in surprise.
His gaze quickly swept across the stone slab, and he didn't decipher the words in front. Instead, he looked at the last few lines.
His intuition told him that there was very important information there.
"There's no rush. Amon will wait until 'He' completes the ritual and becomes Sequence 0 before stealing your fate. Otherwise, 'He' won't be able to withstand the identity of the owner of Sefirah Castle. And before that, letting you continue staying in my divine kingdom is the best choice." Adam seemed to be consoling a repentant believer.
Kill me … Klein mumbled inwardly.
At this moment, he had already deciphered the last few lines:
God, Creator, Creator, Omniscient and Omnipotent, Lord of the Astral World:
Chaos Sea + Visionary Uniqueness + Sun Uniqueness + Tyrant Uniqueness + White Tower Uniqueness + The Hanging Man Uniqueness + 1 Author Beyonder characteristic + 1 White Angel Beyonder characteristic + 1 Thunder God Beyonder characteristic + 1 Omniscient Eye Beyonder characteristic + 1 Dark Angel Beyonder characteristic
Lord of the Mysteries, King of Space-Time, Beacon of Destiny, Sefirah Castle Embodiment, Ruler of the Spirit World:
Sefirah Castle + The Fool Uniqueness + Error Uniqueness + Door Uniqueness + 1 Attendant of Mysteries Beyonder characteristic + 1 Worm of Time Beyonder characteristic + 1 Key of Stars Beyonder characteristic.
Upon seeing this, Klein turned to look at Visionary Adam and asked in puzzlement, "Why are you showing me this?"
Wouldn't it be safer to directly hypnotize me and let me sleep until Amon becomes a god?
Adam's eyes were clear as he said with a gentle expression, "Why are you showing me this?"
Adam's eyes were clear as he said with a gentle expression,
"To be honest, if the other side isn't Amon, I'd be more willing to help you become the ruler of the spirit world.
"We have too many similarities. In a sense, we're old friends who have met once."
At this point, "He" smiled and said,
"We meet again, Mysteries."
