After a few minutes, Daly Simone and Leonard Mitchell, who had made repeated errors in judgment, finally arrived at the top of the steep staircase.
They went down one level at a very slow speed. They cautiously observed their surroundings and were prepared to engage in battle at any moment.
However, even when they reached the bottom, they didn't discover anything abnormal. They didn't even find any useful traces.
Daly grabbed at the wind again and brought her hand to her ear to listen carefully.
A few seconds later, she surveyed the area and said, "There's the sound of a gunshot.
"There's the sound of a gun being fired. A weapon was dropped at the corner of the street in front. That, that person called Enzo is dead, dead …"
"Who did it?" Leonard asked in surprise.
From his point of view, due to all the mishaps they had experienced, Enzo had already escaped the pursuit. There was no possibility of him being eliminated by the surveillance personnel of Rose School, wiping away any clues.
In that case, who killed this suspected Sequence 6 or 5 Beyonder?
After all, the Red Gloves had used a Sealed Artifact to do some anti-divination in advance for their operation tonight. It was unlikely that anyone could have predicted it ahead of time and specifically waited here to hunt the escaping Enzo.
Daly shook her head.
"I didn't see those little guys. It should be a Beyonder who's good at anti-divination …
"Perhaps it's Enzo's enemy, and they were planning on taking action tonight."
She gave a simple guess before splitting up with Leonard to search the nearby streets to see if they could find any clues that had been missed.
Taking this opportunity, Leonard circled to the guardrail of one of the streets and suppressed his voice.
"Old Man, did you discover anything?"
Pallez Zoroast replied after two to three seconds, "You should've heard a scream just now and changed the direction of your pursuit.
"That was emitted by Enzo. He seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying and indescribable, something that could directly damage and corrupt his Soul Body."
"That was released by Enzo. He seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying and indescribable, something that could directly harm and corrupt his spiritual body."
He repeated softly, "That was emitted by Enzo. He seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying and indescribable, something that could directly damage and corrupt his Soul Body."
"Something extremely terrifying and indescribable …"
…
In the hotel room, Klein "Teleported" back with his new marionette.
He then got his marionette to stand by his side as he found a chair to sit down. As he studied the marionette, he sighed.
A Beyonder of the Monster pathway, but he's still inferior to Señor. He's unable to hide on the surface of the gold coin and carry it with him. He can only follow by its side …
From his Beyonder pathway, he isn't a core member of the Rose School of Thought, but his Sequence isn't low. He likely receives a certain level of importance. That is to say, if I don't disguise him, it'll easily cause me to be targeted by the Rose School of Thought …
On the other hand, I can use him as bait to bait. can of a Beyonder. I can't just a Beyonder can. I can't Rose Church.
No, that won't do. I can't be affected by greed. The Southern Continent is where the Rose School of Thought is active. Once I'm exposed, with how much importance the Mother Tree of Desire places on me, not only will saints come, even angels might directly descend!
No, I can't be influenced by greed. The Southern Continent is where Rose School is active. Once I'm exposed, with the importance the Mother Tree of Desire places on me, not only will a saint come, even an angel might descend!
Then, I'll continue using metaphysical methods to find the next marionette. I'll wait for Dhaniz to finish his investigations and for Mr. Aztec to come to me.
Klein quickly made up his mind. After combining all sorts of methods, he gained a basic understanding of his new marionette's level and Beyonder powers.
This was the Fate pathway's Sequence 5 Winner!
Among them, this pathway's Sequence 9 Monster was one with extremely high spiritual perception. They often heard sounds that others couldn't hear and saw things that others couldn't see. Occasionally, they could glimpse scenes of the future and had a keen intuition for danger.
Beyonders of this Sequence would often fall into a trance-like state, muttering words that others couldn't understand. It was to the point of being treated as a true monster.
The corresponding Sequence 8 was Machine. Beyonders would obtain terrifying calculation abilities and precise control. All aspects of their bodies would be clearly enhanced, making them talented in combat, marksmanship, and other fields.
At the same time, they would also possess the powers of divination and anti-divination.
Sequence 7 was Lucky or Lucky One. Beyonders at this level would often encounter things like picking up money, drawing a person's body, rolling dice as expected, or having a girl they liked happen to like them. However, they couldn't control it and were passive. Furthermore, this kind of luck wasn't fixed. It had its ups and downs. Sometimes, it was especially powerful, and sometimes, it was like an ordinary person. Therefore, it was difficult to completely rely on it and had to be restrained.
Sequence 6 was Calamity Priest. On the one hand, Beyonders would passively encounter all kinds of calamities, but they could foresee it. They could make preparations in advance and find a way to eliminate or mitigate the effects. On the other hand, they could actively attract different levels of calamities, implicating their targets or enemies. They could rely on their "specialty" in luck to avoid most of the danger and launch attacks in the chaos. To put it simply, they could pull their opponents into an environment where they could best use their strengths.
Of course, many Calamity Priests could also make full use of the dangers they encountered to attack their enemies.
At the same time, a Calamity Priest could also create a Psyche Storm. By relying on their spirituality that was higher than that of other pathways, they could directly affect the other party's Soul Body, causing a certain degree of dizziness or mental confusion. If a Calamity Priest's enemy entered the latter state, it would be very easy for them to make mistakes, causing the calamity to worsen until it devoured them.
And at Sequence 5 Winner, Beyonders could control their luck to a certain extent. They could rely on their temperance to accumulate large amounts of "luck," and resolve fatal dangers at critical moments in a dramatic manner. From time to time, they could also encounter good things with extremely low probability in their daily lives. For example, due to someone's mistake, they could inexplicably have an inheritance waiting to be inherited. Or, due to a comical reason, they could obtain the favor of an outstanding member of the opposite sex. Or, an enemy they were chasing would be foolish enough to get lost or make a mistake in judgment.
At this level, the Beyonders of the Fate pathway had a very strong intuition. Be it divination or anti-divination, they could be considered mysticism experts.
In addition, they could also give their enemies bad luck to a certain extent, making their targets become rather unlucky.
Beyonders of the Monster pathway really go to the extremes. Apart from spirituality and the fate domain, they have almost no other Beyonder powers. Even their physical fitness and computational abilities are only provided by the Machine stage. The subsequent improvements are rather limited … They're practically the standard charlatans I imagined. They don't have any offensive or defensive abilities, and they rely on their intuition and the blessings of fate to survive …
I have to say that this is the most special pathway out of the twenty-two Beyonder pathways. I can find or guess what their corresponding pathways are. Only Monster appears to be unsociable and alone … Perhaps, the Beyonder pathway that focuses on fate is destined to be lonely? Klein sighed inwardly as he had some ideas on how to use his marionette.
Of course, he still needed to do a divination above the gray fog to see if the passive "luck" and "calamity" still existed when the Beyonder was already dead.
If they existed, Klein would have to face the test of "calamity" from time to time.
In comparison, Admiral of Blood Señor is better as a marionette. Humans always know how to cherish and regret after losing something. Klein shook his head in a self-deprecating manner. From the characteristics of the Monster pathway, he thought of a few effective ways to deal with Low- and Mid-Sequence Beyonders.
First, it was to catch them off guard and make them suffer a mental "baptism" and physical damage from looking directly at the gray fog or other scenes, causing them to lose control.
Second, it was to throw out a special item, allowing the "monsters" who could see scenes they shouldn't see and hear sounds they shouldn't hear to undergo a test. In this regard, Klein had a blood crystal that originated from a high-level Devil that could be used — Blatherer's aura.
Third, it was to lure them to cast bad luck on him, then pretend to be unlucky and take the opportunity to counterattack.
Amidst his thoughts, Klein made his marionette empty his pockets and take out 35 pounds 10 soli 7 pence and a wallet.
The wallet's surface and interior were embroidered with a flower and a name. It seemed to be custom-made.
"Enzo … Regardless of whether it's your name or not, your name is Enzo." Klein glanced at the marionette to his side as his gaze moved down, stopping at the platinum ring inlaid with an emerald on his right hand.
Through divination, he learned that the ring's name was Green Essence. Its effect was very simple, which was to treat all kinds of ailments and injuries that weren't considered too serious.
And because of this, its negative effects were very small. All it did was provoke mosquitoes.
Thankfully, I'm not the one wearing it … Hmm, Beyonders of the Monster pathway don't seem to wear mystical items. Even if they do, they would at most have one or two relatively low-level items. Is this a requirement of fate? Klein retracted his gaze in thought and looked at Enzo, who was staring at the wall. He had an urge that intensified.
He wanted to use the Monster pathway marionette's eyes to look at him. He wanted to know what was so special about him that he could see!
Won't this be very dangerous? Will I lose control even if I see it myself? No, back in Tingen City, Ade Misol looked straight at me without being a Sequence 9. His eyes only bled and hurt for a period of time …
Although I've improved tremendously, Winner Enzo didn't immediately break down when he saw me. It's similar to the reaction I had when I encountered Demoness of Despair Panatiya's partial Mythical Creature form …
Should I do a divination above the gray fog? No, this involves the gray fog itself. The outcome will definitely be affected … Should I attempt it in the real World with my divination abilities? Klein casually took out a gold coin and let it bounce between his fingers.
After a while, the gold coin bounced up with a clang and landed in Klein's palm.
