Chapter 522 Transition to Unpredictability

801

"Let me let the 'Servant of Mystery' go, give Antigonus a chance to become a god, and then let Amon steal his god-making ceremony?"

Of course, He also knew the "wrong" request. If it was really just to steal the godhood ceremony of the King of Angels who was about to become a god, that would be it, but that was Antigonus - who had been secretly revealed in the Fourth Age. The Lord's spirit was deeply polluted, and he borrowed the power of the River of Eternal Darkness to put him into a deep sleep. The "wrong" godhood ceremony of "taking the place of a god in his ceremony" essentially steals the "fate" and "future" of the other person's godhood!

If Klein is the same person as the Lord of Mysteries in terms of "destiny", then Antigonus is almost completely identical to the Lord of Mysteries in terms of "spirituality". Therefore, in this case, stealing the current Antigonus' godhood ceremony is equivalent to stealing part of the other party's destiny of "about to become the 'Fool' and the Lord of Mysteries"...

Amon doesn't dare to claim his fate, so he dares to steal the "future"?

Edward weighed the pros and cons of option one, but did not directly comment on option two: "Omniscient God of Knowledge, do you think Antigonus has completed the 'Fool' ritual?"

"His ritual was not entirely successful."

The Demon of Knowledge observed the spiritual changes of Antigonus, and said in a calm voice as always: "This is also a loophole that I can intervene in... A god-making ceremony that failed nearly two thousand years ago, if it 'succeeds' now , isn’t it just a fooling of time and history? Of course, I can also make His godhood ceremony fail. In contrast, Klein has already completed the ceremony, but Bethel has not."

Klein had mastered the role of "The Fool" as soon as he was resurrected, and he had just used Bethel's body to appear in front of all the gods and angels on Earth. Both of these rituals were quite important.

"Of course, I can also make his ritual fail completely."

"To make his ritual completely fail, I just need to modify some information. It all depends on the candidates of these three Lords of Mystery, who has the courage and ability to fight with this awakened 'half-fool'."

Edward touched his chin:

"This is a good idea, but you obviously ignore the role of desire and emotion. If you let his god-making ceremony fail, it will only cause Antigonus to realize that he has no ability to fight against the true god, and then increase his His power to liberate the spirit of the 'Lord of Mysteries'."

"I think that his first goal now is the God of War, so he should wake up as soon as possible and then rush to fight the God of War. We will add some small help from the side so that he can achieve this most powerful obsession. How about having a chance to think about life after solving it?”

The Demon of Knowledge was slightly startled:

"You want to use the second option?"

"No, of course I will use the first one. I am thinking about what to do after Amon refuses." Edward sealed the extraordinary characteristics of "Secret Waiter", thought about it, and put it in his arms, and then took it from his other pocket. He took out a small package wrapped thinly in deerskin.

"I am not willing to enter the spirit of Antigonus. Who can guarantee that there is not a secret waiting inside? I would rather release this desperate and angry beast to massacre."

"It is necessary to vent anger. If the desire to pay with blood is not satisfied, He will definitely gain strength through the fastest means."

"I'm going to talk to Amon. I have his contact information."

Edward looked at the small package in his hand, humming a tune and unfolding it layer by layer. Carefully wrapped in deerskin in the center was a monocle decorated with silver and gems in the shape of a dragon. The chain decorated with gems hangs down, and a silver dragon wing spreads out. The entire monocle looks noble and high-profile, like a Halloween costume.

Looking at the monocle, Edward sighed rarely.

"I have already hinted to you that if you want to survive, you should stay away from Klein and the holder of the Source Castle. Why are you helping him?"

After saying that, He put the monocle on his right eye.

…

"Not only the Extraordinaries, but also the sealed objects corresponding to the 'Diviners' have all fallen into a state of fanaticism..."

Klein, who began to learn the "door" skills under Bethel's guidance, was the first to choose to strengthen the seals inside various cathedrals and secret organizations to prevent those sealed objects from coming out and hurting people.

The restlessness of these sealed objects reminded him of something that seemed to have happened a long time ago, although it was actually only a year and a half ago - at that time, Klein was a night watchman who had just joined the "Blackthorn Security Company" with the secrets of Source Castle. Or, when he went to the underground sealing room for his shift, the "Muppet of Doom" inside changed. He broke into the door with the coat of arms related to the Antigonus family, and showed the coat of arms to him - Doom. The puppet shouldn't have many living characteristics, but it is just like the countless "seers" and sealed objects now, crazily trying to get closer to Mount Honakis and get closer to Antigonus.

"The power of aggregation is too strong..."

Klein couldn't help but mutter to himself. He did know that extraordinary pathway aggregation could be used to attract targets from adjacent pathways. He had also been aggregated by Zaratul, but this was the first time he had seen such a large-scale initiative by one person. Initiated, it can affect the expression of collective power in the entire world!

"Consciously desire all the extraordinary qualities of the entire pathway."

"It's not to become a god, but to strengthen and complete yourself...even if he doesn't need so many middle and low sequences..."

Klein had some new insights at this moment, and even Bethel didn't speak. If this continues, if all the things in the "divineer" path, including those extraordinary materials, are swallowed by Antigonus, then the next ones that will be affected are the adjacent paths.

"The manifestation of this aggregation ability is actually the instinct of the past. It may seem scary, but it is actually the same as our instinct and desire to seek advancement... It is precisely because they symbolize authority and the extraordinary path itself that we cannot defeat it. And to stop, we can only try to fight..."

In addition to the passage of time, maybe at some point, with just a small negligence or a slight degree of relaxation, we will become Him... On the extraordinary road, power and danger are always with us, and we don’t know when we will slip into the abyss. ...Klein thought silently in his heart.

He thought for a moment and asked:

"In history, has Duke Antigonus ever obtained the 'Origin Castle' or established contact with the Origin Castle?"

"Is this the origin of his title of 'Half Fool'?"

"When I still held the Source Castle, I once saw sealed artifacts displaying things related to Him in the underground sealing room of the Church of the Night."

Also, when Leonard saw himself on the Origin Castle and received the title "The Fool", Pales Zoroaster also felt that the "Fool" might be someone related to Antigonus. By.

In Klein's view, this subconscious association may imply that Duke Antigonus and "Origin Castle" once had a connection.

When he asked this question, he suddenly felt that Bethel seemed a little unhappy, and then a little sarcasm and dissatisfaction appeared in his emotions. Klein quietly shrank his head - as if he was thinking about it. This kid is now connected to his own spirit to a certain extent. Bethel snorted angrily and interrupted his thoughts.

Klein Moretti...a junior who somehow has a safe and solid connection with Origin Castle...If you hadn't appeared in front of me under the current circumstances, it would have been fate paving the way for me to reach the highest level. Just steps, but this precious step happened to be an innocent kid who even my enemy couldn't bear to kill...

"……You think too much."

Bethel sneered twice.

"Don't talk about establishing contact. Even if we become angels and kings of angels, we still can't find the Origin Castle after searching for thousands of years. The gray fog is very close to us, as if it is beside us, but we can't grasp it. Living in those connections, we could only helplessly look at the highest point of the spiritual world... Later, we thought of a way to attract Source Castle, and Antigonus took the initiative to become a test subject, but we all failed."

Klein understood the reason for Bethel's little emotions just now. He thought about it, lowered his eyebrows and said:

"Feel sorry."

"There is nothing to apologize for. If the people favored by fate need to apologize, then everyone who is destined to die should die to apologize."

Bethel replied calmly that He thought his warnings and advice were enough, and Klein should be able to see his attitude. Then, he thought about it and took the initiative to reveal a piece of information:

"Do you know what the original experiment was?"

"At that time, only Antigonus was left who had not yet accommodated the uniqueness. Therefore, when we proposed 'using aggregation to attract the Source Castle', Antigonus proposed to try to use a simplified version of the God Becoming Ceremony to accommodate the uniqueness. , and see if we can trigger any changes.”

Klein frowned slightly. He had not completely given up on the idea of ​​promotion in the path he was most familiar with. He asked with hope:

“How did Antigonus accommodate the uniqueness of ‘The Fool’ in the first place?”

Bethel had no intention of hiding it and responded:

"In addition to us, He also asked Adam and Amon for help. Is it unexpected? We all supported Alistair Tudor at that time."

"Using the ability of the 'Trojan of Destiny'?" Klein sharply pointed to the core based on Will Asceptin's words and his own thinking.

Bethel nodded slightly and looked up at the starry sky:

"The fool's godhood ceremony is to fool time, history or destiny. Therefore, we captured a demigod from the Solomon Empire, and Adam performed deep hypnosis and corresponding memory transplantation to make the other person think that he was Antigonus. Then, Amon took action and stole his identity and destiny with the cooperation of Antigonus. Antigonus used the power of 'tampering' to steal his own identity from Amon's hands. , fate and the experimental subjects are combined together.”

"The demigod of the Solomon Empire began to live in the state of Antigonus, and after a period of time actively tried to accommodate the uniqueness of 'The Fool'."

"He undoubtedly lost control. At this time, the real Antigonus lifted the 'tampering' and returned his identity and destiny to Amon's hands. Amon ended the stealing and returned them to their original owners. Owner."

After listening attentively, Klein added thoughtfully:

"In this way, it would be equivalent to the two completely different fates of 'Antigonus failed to accommodate uniqueness and turned into a monster' and 'Antigonus lived well without any problems' existing at the same time. The real world, so fate is fooled in a way..."

Before he finished speaking, Klein noticed some hidden dangers and hurriedly asked:

"Isn't there any problem with this?"

"There's a lot of risk."

Bethel said: "Destiny is the most elusive thing, not to mention us who were not gods at that time. We did not succeed, but we did not completely fail... At that time, if we could not control the goal in the very short period of time when the goal would be out of control, If you withdraw your destiny, things will undoubtedly fail: if you withdraw it one second too early, the ritual will have no effect; if you withdraw it one second late, Antigonus will be burdened with the fate of out-of-control madness and inevitably lead to the same ending."

Also, if you inherit your destiny, you will naturally inherit the troubles it brings... If this were not the case, Amon would not have to think of ways to chat with me, deceive me, change my will when I want it, and give me both my destiny and my troubles. Alright... Klein muttered something in his mind and began to think about how he could imitate the ritual of the ancestors of the Antigonus family.

At this moment, Klein suddenly heard Bethel say again:

"The Demon of Knowledge told me something. You were born with the Source Castle, but you did not become the Lord of Mysteries immediately. I think it was because the goddess of the night took advantage of Antigonus' uniqueness to do something at that time. , may have indirectly affected the 'Origin Castle', and 'tampered' with the corresponding location of the extraordinary characteristics that were supposed to be given to you, to the land abandoned by the gods. Therefore, the 'curtain' that was supposed to cover you appeared there."

"Taken away by Kotal," Klein said.

Bethel thought for a moment and didn't answer.

Sure enough, all Sequence 2 angels need to fight against the "curtain". As soon as I am touched, I will lose myself on the spot... Klein sighed secretly, frowned slightly and said:

“Can the uniqueness of Antigonus indirectly affect the ‘Origin Castle’?”

"Maybe, after all, He has lost control and gone crazy."

Bethel didn't look in Honakis' direction.

"This also means that his self-awareness can no longer suppress the will of the 'Lord of Mysteries' in his body. The two spirits are stitched together, reflecting the most primitive, instinctive, bloody and crazy side.

"And the 'Lord of Mysteries' is the former owner of the 'Origin Castle'. Now Antigonus can naturally indirectly influence the 'Origin Castle' through this identity... Just like now, is this Antigonus? Is it Nus’s own thoughts or the instinct of the Lord of Mysteries? Don’t talk about you and me, even Antigonus himself probably can’t tell the difference.”

"This is why the Demon of Knowledge said that the 'Lord of Mysteries' and God restrained each other and lost control of many arrangements."

“After two consecutive failures, ‘Origin Castle’ experienced certain changes.

"This is also a good thing for you. As the end approaches, the remaining will of the 'Lord of Mysteries' is dissipating. In the end, only the spirit will remain and try to wake up.

"If you were born in the Fourth Age, the moment you became the 'Attendant of Mysteries', you had already become Him."
