As early as when Klein was "sleeping", after reaching a certain agreement with that Celestial Worthy, he had already mastered the power of Sefirah, "Sefirah Castle", gradually integrated with it, and became "half Great Old One" at a speed only slower than Angel.
This means that he also accommodated the share of Sefirah required by Great Old One in the state of single Pathway, that is, "Fool" Pathway, and did not Affected by Mental Imprint and the remaining will in Sefirah or Beyonder Characteristic, it turns into a monster named Klein, but in reality it is still the same "Celestial Worthy".
Of course, Celestial Worthy is one of the split personality aspects of "Original Creator". Like all Great Old One, it has the characteristics of immortality and eternal spirit. As long as it is truly When the Lord of Mysteries is born, He can be resurrected by relying on this Pillar-level Great Old One. No matter if it is thousands of years or even millions of years later, He will always have a chance to return from history.
This is the same problem that Angel, and all subsequent Great Old Ones on Earth, have to face. The consciousness "Malevolent Dragon" born from "City of Calamity" is also immortal, but after being sealed and defeated many times, it is now extremely fragile and can be suppressed by Angel.
"Knowledge Moor", "River of Eternal Darkness" and other Sefirahs also have residual and immortal consciousness of Sefirah. Although it has become weak through the fusion and wear and tear of generations of Dao Integrator, it does not mean that the newly born Great Old One can sit back and relax.
Angel speculates that part of the reason why "God of Steam" is not willing to accommodate Sefirah and becomes "Demon of Knowledge" is because he anticipates a future where he will fight against Sefirah's consciousness for thousands of years and carefully maintain a balance. As Fourth Epoch, he was hastily promoted until the "traveler" Roselle It was only after started the industrial revolution that Potion in the body was truly digested, and the God became normal. Yugus Stiano knew that this state was a kind of torture, not to mention that the "Knowledge Moor" he needed to accommodate was once suspected of being contaminated by "Brood Hive". The fusion process must be extremely difficult and Affliction.
But compared to the Sefirahs who were sealed in the Western Continent and whose internal consciousness split from different sides of "Original Creator" had been eliminated, the master of "Sefirah Castle" is the most difficult to deal with.
Had it not been for the fact that Klein and Amon had a tacit understanding of "Source Castle War" just after becoming a god, deceiving that "Primordial God Almighty" into making a certain compromise, and then taking advantage of this to Persuasion "" "Celestial Worthy" gave up this chance of resurrection. Klein may have lost in the confrontation with this Pillar-level Great Old One, or he could only retain the strongest part of his emotions and the deepest part of his humanity, and the rest would belong to "Celestial Worthy".
And now, with Klein Moretti, with the identity and memory of Zhou Mingrui, he has become half Great Old One, which is exactly the result of the support of everyone on the other Timeline and the efforts of everyone in this world.
"... In short, now I have fully mastered the power of 'Sefirah Castle', and during my sleep, I actively tried to fuse the two Pathways of 'Gate' and 'Error'. Although it has not yet truly accommodated the corresponding Uniqueness and Beyonder Characteristic, if necessary, I can become the real 'Lord of Mysteries' as quickly as possible."
Introducing his status with a soft and playful voice that is different from the alienation of the "world" and "Fool", Klein relaxed his body and leaned on the back of the chair, very satisfied with the maintenance of his "humanity".
During this period, he used another memory of Timeline narrated by Angel Gray to create for himself a "Great Old One city" that showed the technology, humanities and environment of the early 21st century. Celestial Worthy" plays hide and seek, trying to influence each other. On the other hand, they also use these profound memories to maintain their own humanity, so as not to be affected by the Mental Imprint in "Sefirah Castle" and Beyonder Characteristic and become strangers to themselves.
After Celestial Worthy finally compromised, this Dream City was also deposited in the deepest part of Historical Void, becoming a historical fragment that only he, "Fool", knew.
"It's a pity that I never had the chance to enter that dreamland and accompany you."
Angel sighed regretfully.
Hearing this, Klein smiled and said:
"After Apocalypse is over, you can visit and live there anytime. I can even bring that history into reality Reenactment, just like Yarnam City."
Angel's eyes lit up when he heard this, but then dimmed again. She knew that even if Reenactment destroyed the entire Great Old One era, it would be nothing more than a false bubble. The people of that era had passed away and could not truly return.
Just think of it as Travel that belongs exclusively to the two of us... She muttered, gathered her thoughts, and turned to the issue that they are most concerned about at the moment.
Like Klein, after she accommodates "City of Calamity", she is only one step away from becoming the real Great Old One. As long as the power of "Red Priest" Pathway is accommodated, with Dual Pathways as the cornerstone, Sefirah can be supported, and all concepts, authority and symbols can truly play their role, and become "Calamity of Destruction, Origins of Disaster".
And the one who currently controls the power of Adjacent Pathways is Mirror Person, who is closely related to her. Gray is not two independent individuals. It is much simpler to fuse. After the fusion, Gray can even retain its own consciousness and continue to exist independently as Mirror Person at the Great Old One level.
Unfortunately, unlike other Great Old One, Angel has a special feature in its body that other Great Old One does not have: Mirrored Original Creator.
In order to prevent the existence of Creator, who is second only to the one who created everything, from truly reviving, Angel must maintain a subtle "imbalance" after becoming Calamity of Destruction, rather than a "balance" like Klein, Grisha, Amanises and other God.
Specifically, she planned to use the basis of Great Old One, that is, two Pathway each with one Sequence 1 Characteristic and the corresponding Uniqueness, and additionally accommodate the characteristics of Sequence 1 "Apocalypse", artificially creating a state where "Demoness" is the main body and "Red Priest" is the auxiliary, so that the yin and yang sides of Mirror Creator cannot be truly integrated.
Of course, currently Angel has accommodated all three copies of "Apocalypse", and Gray also has two copies of "Conqueror", but the complete Pathway is the cornerstone of the integration of Sefirah. She only After truly becoming Great Old One, he can expel the excess characteristics one after another, so as to prevent the "imbalance" in the body from eventually turning into "collapse". His own death is not a big deal. If Mirrored Original Creator is summoned, Great Terror may happen that even Outer Deity doesn't want to see happen.
"But this 'weakness' may be used as a weapon to prevent Outer Deity people from truly fighting to the last moment. With the symbol of 'Fourth Pillar' and the threat of 'Mirrored Original Creator', our chances of winning can be higher."
After introducing his own situation, Angel said thoughtfully.
Angel had seen the terrifying power produced by the fusion of the powers of "River of Eternal Darkness" and "City of Calamity" before he became God. But she always felt that a certain key symbol was missing. She thought that Ancient Sun God's research was somewhat lacking, but she was sure that Mirror Creator could pose a threat to Outer Deity.
After all, even "Celestial Worthy" and "God Almighty" have made compromises because of this possibility. Angel only needs to expel the excess "Demoness" characteristics from the body, or it may be severely injured in battle and find it difficult to stabilize its own condition. It is possible for Creator to appear in the mirror, and even if it does not reach this level, after becoming Great Old One, she can also make limited use of the person of "Creator" to make the symbol of her own "destruction" reach a level close to Pillar.
"But it's best not to use this weapon until the critical moment, especially when our chances of winning are already relatively high..."
Klein said with a frown. He instinctively did not want Angel to use his "fall" as a weapon Intimidation Outer Deity, but wanted to wait for him After becoming "Lord of Mysteries", he cooperated with "God Almighty" Grisha Adam and defeated "Mother Goddess of Depravity" and the other eight Outer Deity head-on.
It's a pity that he can't directly accommodate Adjacent Pathways to become Great Old One, because the birth of "Lord of Mysteries" will definitely make Outer Deity crazy, and according to Gray's memory, that Apocalypse of Timeline also arrived early, and appeared under the impetus of "Mother Goddess of Depravity". This Pillar may have hidden some means of breaking the barrier at a critical moment and arriving early.
The prophecy that "at the end of July, crimson will fall from the sky" should refer to this final moment.
Without the birth of Lord of Mysteries and God Almighty, there is no way to unlock the Western Continent barrier and allow the remaining Great Old One to appear, and Lord of Mysteries The appearance of either Pillar between and God Almighty may force Mother Goddess of Depravity to arrive early... Thinking of this, Klein also has a headache.
Seeing that he was silent, Angel was ready to leave Gray Fog and return to his own kingdom of God, opening up for "Justice" Audrey today. Subconsciously preparing to prevent Sequence 3's "Dream Weaver" from accidentally seeing something she shouldn't see and losing control and going crazy, she was stopped by Klein:
"You mean, are you really going to show all the memories in your heart to 'Justice'Miss tonight?"
Speaking, Klein showed a playful smile.
Just after nightfall, Audrey excused himself from being tired and took an early shower, then placed a huge full-length mirror at the end of the bed, then lay down on the soft big bed and fell asleep amidst the aroma of sacrificial candles and essential oils.
Of course, as Saint as "Spectator" Pathway, she did not really fall asleep, but came to a corridor surrounded by countless mirrors in a hazy state.
The mirror is the iconic item of Demoness. Does this mean that "Goddess of Calamity" is leading me into His Kingdom of God?
In the dream, Audrey, who was still wearing the elegant dress she wore during the day, looked around and saw countless versions of herself appearing and disappearing in the mirror. She realized that she was close to the dream of God, and was about to enter the subconscious where countless secrets and dangers were buried.
Normally, Saint like her, Sequence 3, would have to be cautious when entering Angel's dream, which could easily cause the other party's subconscious counterattack. However, God's subconscious is completely isolated from reality, and it is impossible to contact it through conventional means.
Of course, except for God's active invitation.
Audrey I have heard about Meeting Before God from Mr. "Star" who works at Church of Evernight and Mr. "Moon" who is currently a senior executive at Church of the Earth Mother. I know God is not completely in contact with believers, and he is also a member of Mr. "Fool"'s Tarot Club. Although he respects God, he no longer regards him as a superior existence that cannot be contacted.
But walking directly into God's dream still made her a little scared, worried that she would see something she shouldn't see.
Although "Empress" Miss promised that there would be no major problems, I still made the most basic "insight" and left... Audrey thought, strolling in the quiet Mirror Tunnel, walking forward accompanied by his own Mirror Person in the left and right mirrors.
Soon, she came to a door that was ajar and made of the same full-length mirror.
The Audrey in the mirror was wearing a brightly colored and exaggerated evening dress. She was in a brightly lit hall filled with guests. She smiled and stretched out her hand, inviting her to enter the room.
If she had just become Saint and was still curious about everything in the dream, she would have definitely accepted the invitation. However, after experiencing countless horrors, dangers and traps hidden in Depths of Consciousness, Audrey was extremely cautious at this time.
She used her ability to create a Virtual Persona, which allowed her to push open the half-hidden mirror and enter the slightly bleak space behind it.
At this moment, Audrey saw himself in the mirror with a sarcastic smile, and cut off the connection between himself and Virtual Persona without hesitation.
The Audrey who walked into the door out of curiosity then disappeared, and the door closed with a click.
Is this... a trap? If it was my true body that entered just now, I'm afraid it would have been...
Not surprisingly, Audrey took two steps back, away from the closed door, and then realized that the Mirror Person who invited him in the mirror was missing.
Audrey in other mirrors looked at all this with a faint smile, as if it had nothing to do with them.
This kind of "well-meaning" onlookers gave Audrey a creepy feeling. She no longer delayed and quickly walked deeper into the mirror passage. Along the way, she ignored other "Audrey" who invited her with smiles or angrily asked her to stop, until she reached the end of the passage and stood in front of a dark mirror.
Finally, the various versions of myself in the mirror were no longer there, but "Empress" Miss with long pale golden hair and sparkling purple eyes.
No... His appearance was slightly different, more Neutralized, and his outline was a bit tougher... Audrey, who had raised his observation skills to the highest level to guard against danger, quickly discovered the difference between "Empress" in the mirror and his memory, and immediately overlapped that figure with the outline of another Tarot Club member in Gray Fog.
Is this "Chariot" Miss? How could she be in the dream of "Empress"?
Audrey, who always paid more attention to the other party because he was obviously a female but was sitting on the male side, felt his scalp was numb and thought of a possibility that he seemed to have subconsciously ignored before:
Just like "the world" is equal to "Fool" to a certain extent, "Chariot" is "Empress"?
One is "Demoness" True God, and the other is a high-ranking existence "Red Priest". She also has blond hair and almost never speaks. She joined Tarot Club happened to be when "Empress" Miss disappeared...Audrey clues flashed through his mind quickly, and he became more and more certain about this guess.
During this process, she discovered that her "Dream Weaver" Potion was being digested faster than she expected.
Normally, "Dream Weaver" needs to weave a complete and real dream for Wisdom creature in order to complete the role and digest Potion to a certain extent, but she is now in True God's dream, just confirming the identity of "Chariot" and gaining insight into the other side of "Goddess of Calamity" is enough to benefit a Saint.
Is this the "clue" Miss Empress left for me... Suppressing his excitement, Audrey reached out and pushed open the door made of black mirrors, and walked into the space behind.
As soon as her eyes lit up, she walked from the mirror corridor to a Loen style street. The townhouses on both sides looked warm and peaceful under the setting sun. A few pedestrians passed by her, but they did not notice the young lady who suddenly appeared on the street.
Is this Backlund? But in the past two years, I have walked through every inch of that city in my dreams, and I don't remember such a quiet street... Audrey looked around and quickly found clues on the street signs.
Here is Daffodil Street from Tingen City!
Could it be... Digging out some clues that he had collected privately but that almost led to a big mistake and were hidden in the depths of his memory, Audrey looked at a two-story townhouse on the street.
No. Daffodil Street 2, home of Moretti.
