The George III body in "Ruins No.1" fell apart with the arrival of Catastrophe, and when it was counterattacked by the characteristics of "Black Emperor", his shadow delivering a war speech in Backlund West Borough's Anniversary Square also showed strange changes.
First, the passionate tone became stuttering and trembling, which made the cabinet members, nobles, Rich Merchant and civilians surrounding the square raise their heads in confusion and look at their own King.
Then George III, who was wearing a black dress and had a serious expression, also became stiff in his movements, like a stuck machine. He froze on the podium, waving his arms pointing to the sky, motionless.
Standing directly in front of the podium, with the best position in the entire Anniversary Square, the Hall family reacted differently when they saw this situation.
Earl Hall frowned and looked to his side. There were the new Duke Negan and Earl Livett, but everyone looked confused; his eldest son Hibbert Hall was the first He got close to the female relatives at home, ready to protect them at any time; Audrey was thoughtful, guessing that the matter might be related to Mr. "Fool" and some members of Tarot Club.
But before they had any further thoughts or actions, the George III on the podium exploded into a piece of flesh and blood with a "boom", scattered into the air like fireworks, and then turned into nothingness, as if it had never existed.
This scene was like an unannounced street magic show, leaving everyone in the square with a blank mind, and no one realized what happened for a short period of time.
"King, Your Majesty was assassinated!"
Someone yelled, pressing the "panic" button in everyone's heart, and the scene in the square became chaotic.
People near the exit subconsciously squeezed out, while those next to the podium hid back. The soldiers maintaining order were crumbling like rocks washed by waves. The nobles were a little calmer, but most of them looked pale. They didn't know if this horrible attack would end here, or if it was about to be directed at them.
Audrey stood there blankly, with his brother Hibbert protecting him behind him. His expression seemed to be stunned, but he felt something in his heart:
Mr. "World" and "Empress" Miss had expressed special concern about this speech before, and then George III exploded in full view of everyone... Could it be that their target was Your Majesty?
Is this the will of Mr. "Fool"?
She subconsciously looked around and felt that Marionette from "the world" or Mirror Substitution from "Empress" were watching all this indifferently in a corner, admiring her own achievements.
Behind a glass on a bell tower next to the chaotic square, Angel quietly watched the soldiers rush to the podium, searching in vain for King's body and possible assassins; watching Earl Hall, Duke Negan and others direct the guards to maintain order in the square, evacuate the people to avoid stampedes, leaving all nobles and parliamentarians to receive further protection, and the chaos quickly subsided.
Among them, Duke Negan Jr. and Tirio Negan, who had a close relationship with her, acted decisively with clear goals. They quickly asked the military guards stationed at Anniversary Square to take away the nobles and congressmen in the name of protection. They were completely different from Angel's first impression of him - a young nobleman who had just inherited the title and had no independent opinions.
He seemed to be from Georgina's faction. Could it be that he had received the signal in advance and had been prepared for it... Angel guessed. Seeing that George III was completely dead and cut off the possibility of being trusted and worshiped by the people, he followed Mirror Tunnel and left West Borough.
As early as "Ruins No.1" completely collapsed and was subsequently violently attacked by multiple Lightning Storm, she collapsed with Spirituality in her arms. Trissy was only one step away from losing control. left there and got into Mirror World to avoid the subsequent explosion, leaving the shadow of Distortion's power and order that was spreading but completely out of control deep underground.
At the moment of leaving, Angel could sense that the strong power of Storm enveloped the entire area. It was a power that was somewhat similar to the "Tyrant" card and obviously came from Lord of Storms, it seems that this God of Loen also stood in line after the situation became clear, and gave the last blow to the out-of-control George III.
As for whose hands those three copies of Beyonder Characteristic and "Black Emperor" Uniqueness will fall into, this is not what Angel cares about, it is a certain Whether God gained or Adam sneaked away, she didn't have any power to fight for these inheritances anyway. Why should she be cannon fodder between God and King of Angel?
After leaving the dangerous outskirts of Backlund, she let go of her arms and let the struggling Trissy in her arms regain her freedom. The latter floated forward for a while in the Mirror Tunnel, which lacked the restraint of gravity, and then realized that she had overreacted. She lowered her head and apologized sincerely to the Demoness who had just saved her life:
"Sorry... I'm just not used to being held..."
Immediately, she asked doubtfully:
"But you, why did you save me just now? Isn't it in your interest to let me attract the power of 'Primordial Demoness' to destroy this tomb?"
After seeing the power of "Mirror Person", she even changed her title back to Oldest One when she saw me as her "superior", and said she didn't want to be held if I turned into Edessak... Angel chuckled secretly and replied:
"If you can truly sacrifice your own life to deal with George III, you have given us an explanation. Of course, I will not interfere with how the church will deal with you later... But I guess they will keep you to deal with that Prince."
"Edessak? Is he really still alive?"
Trissy asked eagerly.
Angel nodded:
"That's what Georgina Augustus said. Maybe when George III's death is settled, he will appear again... and what Duchess once asked you may also be the request of Edessak."
She had some guesses as to why Conservatives in the royal family kept Edessak, but this was a struggle for power and politics and had little to do with her, so she did not think about it in detail.
Seeing that Trissy fell silent after hearing the news, Angel simply threw her at West Borough in Backlund, and then came to Anniversary Square, where he happened to see the scene of chaos caused by the death of George III.
After admiring it with satisfaction, she came to Saint Samuel Cathedral of North Borough and walked out of a glass next to the chaotic street.
This is Peace Square near Academy Area. From time to time, groups of people are running from that direction as if fleeing. From their conversations, Angel knows that the information transmitted here through cables and speakers is "King's speech" also spread the explosion and chaos in which George III died to North Borough. If there were not dedicated soldiers maintaining order and evacuating the people, there would definitely have been many stampedes.
The arrangement made by George III for Promotion Ritual instead spread the news of his death to every city immediately. If this continues, not to mention Backlund, the entire Loen Kingdom will fall into chaos. In this way, the entire Loen Kingdom will be at war with the Feysac Empire Is the Loen in the middle of the war really good... Such thoughts flashed through Angel's mind. He entered Prayer Hall of Saint Samuel Cathedral and found that there were already many confused believers here seeking comfort, so he found a corner to sit down, bowed his head and prayed to Goddess.
He told Goddess about the process and results of today's action in concise language. Angel waited for a moment, but did not see Archbishop come to him, nor did he get a direct response from Goddess. He was about to leave Prayer Hall when he suddenly felt a slight touch from Spirituality.
She has had this feeling several times in the past week, all when Klein was looking for her Historical Image in History Void.
In the plan to stop George III, this means that his actions have failed and he is looking for some help!
Angel's face changed slightly, and he quickly "agreed" to the other party's request to pull his own image, but he did not wait until the image that he could regard as "Mirror Substitution" appeared.
Moreover, this touch of Spirituality did not appear for the second time, and the pointing position was not around Backlund, or even at the North Continent. This means that Klein is probably in some kind of unfavorable state, and does not want me to really "come" to him. Instead, look for help from other people or God... Angel quickly analyzed, sat back on the bench of the Prayer Hall, chanted Honorific Name of Evernight Goddess again, offered prayers to Him, and sought His guidance.
Being ignored again, Angel stood up and left Prayer Hall without surprise.
Before this, she knew that Goddess might have fallen into a strange state because of Death and "Uniqueness" and was unable to respond to believers in time, but she still felt a little lost.
When she came outside the church, she leaned directly next to the stained glass with Night Emblem, lowered her head and recited Honorific Name from Mr. Fool, and then said:
"... Dear Mr. Fool, I'm afraid Mr. World is being chased by some enemies, maybe Little Zarathus, maybe Amon's Avatar. I hope you can lend me a helping hand, or tell me his location and status..."
After a moment, Angel, who received no response, sighed in disappointment.
Could it be that the fall of George III made the gods a little "busy"... She murmured, Honorific Name of Anne, Bernadette, Arianna and others flashed through her mind. In the end, she shook her head and decided to ask for help from others rather than for herself.
The next second, she walked straight into "Mirror World", chanted her own Honorific Name, guided it directly to the location of Mirror Person in "City of Calamity", and got an immediate response:
"What's going on?"
Sure enough, "I" was the one who cared about me the most... Listening to the response that sounded exactly like hers and had a rather anxious tone, Angel smiled happily and told the other party that Klein was likely to be attacked.
"Whether it's Zarathus or Amon's Avatar, it won't help if you rush over now. Since Amon dares to take action, his clone must have the strength of Sequence 2... If the characteristics of Sequence 1 hadn't made him unstable, it would have even been Sequence 1's 'Worm of Time'..."
"Mirror Person" answers her questions by answering prayers.
"Then what should I do? Anne should be able to deal with him, but I don't even know where Klein is..."
Angel said, frowning.
She has tried Mirror Divination several times, but failed to get any effective information. After all, Zarathus and Amon are both proficient in Anti-Divination, and it would be too difficult for a Demoness to break through their blockade.
"Only if we immediately become 'Catastrophe' Demoness, and become the real Angel, can we hope to fight against them and save Klein... And we must do it quickly. With their efficiency, if they delay for another ten minutes, the danger will be greatly increased."
"Mirror Person" said in a serious tone.
Promoted immediately... By the way, in the battle just now in the tomb of George III, I digested the last bit of "Unaging" Potion. This may be because I deliberately changed back to the appearance of "Irene", so that "Black Emperor", who is about to become a god, mistakenly thought that I was a person resurrected from the dead, and received strong feedback before his death. However, the characteristics of "Catastrophe" Demoness have not been taken out from the floating city, and it will take at least a week...
Angel's thoughts were a little confused, and he even began to regret why he let Anne and the new "Ghost Empire" participate in the battle, so that he could not take out that important characteristic immediately.
But the next sentence of "Mirror Person" made her eyes suddenly widen:
"There is indeed not enough time here... but have you forgotten that we can also buy more time through 'City of Calamity'?"
The power of City of Calamity...
"You mean the 'Time Conflict' of Bansy?"
Thinking of that short trip to Trier and the three extra days after returning to Bansy, Angel took a deep breath, and the hope of rescuing Klein slowly rose from the bottom of his heart.
