Upon sensing the intrusion of a stranger, the animals in top hats, trench coats, or exquisite and complicated dresses stirred as they looked at Klein with eyes filled with the desire to attack.
At that instant, Klein, who was wearing the Pride mask, felt like he was the enemy of the entire city.
He was no stranger to the situation in the Garden of Eden, having watched the council meetings through Miss Justice. He knew that the animals that walked upright on the streets and dressed up as humans were different manifestations of "Bestial Desires." They were more inclined towards consciousness, concepts, and abstractions, and not corporeal entities.
In other words, they didn't have Spirit Body Threads, so they wouldn't suffer any physical harm. If not, Klein could have hung these animals up neatly and hung them in midair, letting them sway in the wind.
In the next second, with the bear that was about to burst its formal attire, the animals in the Garden of Eden either bared their fangs or growled softly as they surged towards Klein from all directions.
Once one was hugged or bitten by them, they would be corrupted by the corresponding "Bestial Desires." They could only rely on their own will or the various Beyonder powers of a few pathways like a Spectator to resist it.
Faced with such a situation, Klein, who was wearing a half top hat, tapped the Staff of the Stars and didn't panic at all. He raised his left hand, spread open his fingers, and suddenly closed them.
The Garden of Eden, which was made up of Gothic architecture, was immediately shrouded in a shadow, as though a huge curtain had been drawn over it.
Realm of Mysteries, the embryonic form of a divine kingdom!
Klein used this to seal the Garden of Eden, preventing the powerhouses here from escaping.
Right on the heels of that, he propped his cane on the ground and walked forward step by step, like a gentleman taking a stroll after cooking.
The animals that were wearing human clothes and imitating humans rushed to his side. They naturally changed directions and hugged each other in pairs.
A python with its forked tongue swallowed the canine creature that was filled with the desire to mate; a strange man with a colorful spider face used a silk net to entangle a giant rat with scarlet eyes; a tyrannical and crazy werewolf tore at a languid cat; a brown bear wearing a formal attire that walked upright hugged a fox with glossy fur …
These animals that represented different aspects of "Bestial Desires" fused with each other, forming pairs to "offset" each other.
Klein, who wielded the authority of "Grafting", slowly walked past them, as if he was examining "humanity" and "bestial desires."
Just like that, he walked step by step until he reached the huge church that was more than 80 meters tall and stopped.
Then, he raised his head and stared at the skulls embedded in the black pillar for two seconds.
Klein's expression did not change. He raised his left hand to press down on his top hat and walked down the stairs into the church.
He immediately saw a vast and spacious hall with a huge cross and a greyish-white dragon statue coiled around the cross.
In front of the Cross, Ann Man
There was a long table with five chairs on each side.
At this moment, there was a man sitting in a black wheelchair at the end of the long table. His face was abnormally pale, and his light yellow eyebrows were very long. His hair was neatly combed back, and there were some wrinkles on his forehead.
This was the leader of Psychological Alchemy, Pauli Derlau.
At the same time, he was also the famous hermit Eric Derrick and the King of the Black Throne, Barros Hopkins.
Of course, no one knew if this was his main body or one of his identities.
Seeing the German Sparrow, who was wearing a silk top hat and a black trench coat, slowly and oppressively walk over, Pauli Derlau gripped the armrests of his wheelchair tightly.
When the other party entered the Garden of Eden, he didn't hesitate to leave the mind city, but he failed to do so.
The Pride mask on the other party's face seemed to be mocking him.
Phew … Pauli Derlau quickly "calmed" his emotions, and his eyes lit up with a clear and illusory light.
Such a light condensed into pairs of holy and dreamy wings in front of him. Under the layers of wings was a pure figure of light kneeling on one knee and praying devoutly.
This was an angel.
At the same time, an ordinary-looking old man with all his hair appeared on Pauli Derlau's left. On the right stood a priest in a simple white robe with a pale golden beard covering his face.
Ancient Angel Hermes! Visionary Adam!
Klein didn't stop walking forward slowly as he muttered to himself, "That's right.
He only muttered to himself, "I wish for all the fake ones to disappear."
Just as he said that, he raised his left hand and snapped his fingers.
The Angel of Light, Hermes, and Visionary Adam instantly collapsed and disappeared, leaving Pauli Derlau alone in the black wheelchair.
He had just used the Beyonder powers of a Dreamweaver to weave a few images that were almost real. And once the enemy believed that they were real, they would be real. Although the damage caused wouldn't have any physical effects, it would cause the target to die without them realizing it.
Pauli Derlau had already scared countless targets to death in their nightmares.
Unfortunately, he had encountered Klein, a King of Angels who could remain lucid in dreams and had "true vision." He used the power of a Miracle Invoker's "wish" to easily destroy the "illusion."
Upon seeing this, Pauli Derlau's eyelids twitched. Without any hesitation, he propped himself up with his hands and stood up from the black wheelchair.
During this process, his body rapidly expanded, turning into a dragon covered in huge grayish-white scales.
Dragonization!
An incomplete Mythical Creature form!
Compared to a Sequence 4 Manipulator, the incomplete Mythical Creature form that Pauli Derlau displayed was even larger. Furthermore, there were certain changes to his head. It was closer to a lizard than a human. The pale-gold vertical eye and the scales on his face that had mysterious patterns intertwined together made him look cold and distorted.
And with the appearance of this incomplete Mythical Creature form, all sorts of thoughts, psyche, desires, and willpower swept through the vast and empty hall like a storm. They invaded Klein's mind island in a half-illusory, half-real manner.
This was a combination of Mind Deprivation and Mental Plague. It could infect every creature that was affected and corrupted, causing them to go crazy on the spot.
To angels, such attacks were the most dangerous. This was because "They" had certain mental problems. They could lose control at any moment because of the tilting of the scales!
Wearing the grayish-white Pride mask and half top hat, Klein didn't stop moving forward. He didn't attempt to avoid the plague storm at the mental level. He continued to walk towards Pauli Derlau resolutely, coldly, and unwaveringly.
The next second, transparent insects crawled out of the back of his hand, and his clothes swelled up as if there were countless indescribable monsters crawling under them.
Suddenly, Klein lost control and turned into a huge vortex formed from transparent maggots.
The vortex extended out slippery tentacles with strange patterns. In the middle, a door of light that was dyed bluish-black could be vaguely seen.
Upon seeing this scene, even though Pauli Derlau had become an incomplete Mythical Creature, he couldn't help but freeze on the spot.
This huge grayish-white dragon seemed to have become a marionette. Its head was filled with paste, and its joints were all rusted.
He had looked straight at a mighty existence that he shouldn't have looked straight at!
Above the gray fog, Klein, who was sitting in The Fool's seat, immediately dispersed the historical projection that had lost control.
The moment he entered the Garden of Eden and drew the Staff of the Stars, he switched locations with the Historical Void projection summoned by the Worms of Spirit in Sefirah Castle. He directly returned to his ancient palace.
Although he knew very well that Visionary Adam had gone to the Forsaken Land of the Gods and was attempting to fuse with the True Creator, making it impossible for "Him" to descend with "His" true body for the time being. At most, "Him" could send another identity, completely unable to do anything to him, a King of Angels among Kings of Angels. However, he still felt that he had to be cautious to prevent himself from falling into Adam's or Amon's trap.
Following that, he summoned his former self from the fog of history. He wore the Pride mask and held the Staff of the Stars, and he threw him back into the cathedral in the Garden of Eden.
Looking at Pauli Derlau, who had lost most of his rationality and was unable to control his body, Klein didn't directly control his Spirit Body Threads to turn this mind dragon into his marionette. He maintained his previous pace and frequency as he slowly approached him.
In Pauli Derlau's eyes, German Sparrow was like death itself. He didn't come quickly and had his own rhythm, but he couldn't escape no matter what.
At this moment, the grayish-white dragon statue on the huge cross behind him moved.
There was almost no difference between before and after. Klein raised his left hand and suddenly pulled it down.
The shadow curtain that enveloped the Garden of Eden instantly shrank, enveloping the huge cross, the grayish-white dragon statue, and Pauli Derlau.
In the next second, Klein raised the "curtain."
The incomplete Mythical Creature that Pauli Derlau had transformed into fused with the huge cross like a knotted tree.
As for the grayish-white dragon statue, it connected the entire Garden of Eden, turning the city outside the cathedral into an abnormally illusory sea that contained all colors.
This wasn't the Chaos Sea, but a borrowing of power. Klein had "tampered" with the target and "reorganized" it.
At this moment, German Sparrow, who had been slowly walking forward, arrived beside the knotted tree. He raised his right hand, and under Pauli Derlau's still lifeless but somewhat terrified gaze, he swung the Staff of the Stars.
This staff, which was embedded with many gems, struck the target heavily, splitting it into two.
Amidst the cracking sounds, Pauli Derlau's body, which was formed from the combination of the huge cross, fell to the ground piece by piece.
The leader of the Mind Alchemists died before he could even say his last words.
While waiting for Pauli Derlau's Beyonder characteristic to appear, Klein looked around and chuckled inwardly.
As expected, Hermes's true goal is to use the faction behind Miss Justice to destroy the Garden of Eden and use this to escape Adam.
The words of the mind dragon, Ariehogg, have made "Him" make up "His" mind …
However, he has to leave me a few Sealed Artifacts. There's no need to run away with them … Could it be that this rabbit should be wearing the mask of Greed and not the mask of Wrath?
There might still be Psychological Alchemy in the future, but the one behind it will no longer be the Twilight Hermit Order, but Hermes himself.
