Opening the Door

Without Klein needing to remind them, they all knew what the door meant; by the time he reached it, there was already enough space around him.

Klein had his Marionette compare the key to the keyhole, which was actually a very difficult task, because the keyhole was located at one-third of the way down the door, and for a door over ten meters high, that position was three or four meters high.

His 1.8-meter-tall Marionette, even with his hand raised, couldn't reach the keyhole.

Of course, this was no difficult task for a Demigod- level "Faceless." Klein's arms stretched out like noodles, trembling, and at their highest point, they were less than half their original thickness.

The Black Iron Key softened the moment it touched the keyhole, instantly becoming one with it and emitting a gray-blue light.

It wasn't just the holes that were glowing; the various Symbol and patterns on the gate were also radiating light. This light rapidly intertwined, like a pair of giant hands opening the gate.

Klein, however, severed his connection with the Marionette the moment the key melted.

But it was too late. The viscous, illusory black ocean, following the key, grasped the Marionette and, through a mysterious connection, came to his side. His vision went dark, and a sharp pain shot through his head.

At the same time, indistinct murmurs rang in his ears, bringing a new wave of excruciating pain.

Klein's expression Distortion instantly. His remaining rationality told him that he had absolutely no energy left to linger in this Historical Void. He slipped out and landed back before the door.

Before he could make a further move, a chill ran through him, and a cold white aura intruded into this world composed of orange-red, tearing a small piece of Pure White into this deserted divine kingdom.

The snow fell silently, covering Klein. The Affliction seemed to lessen with the coldness. He looked in the direction the snow was spreading; the swirling white snow swept along the ground into the hallway, then silently rose, outlining a human shape!

That's another version of him!

Before Klein could react, a silvery-white light flashed from his side, slashing straight forward and cleaving the shadow in two!

Klein lowered his head as if sensing something. In the morning light, a pale black shadow grew from beneath his feet, becoming his own.

--He had lost his own shadow in that brief moment, and then found it again.

Despite the shock and fear within, Klein outwardly maintained a calm smile and asked Colin Iliad, who had sheathed his silver rapier:

"How did you know you had to kill it?"

Colin didn't speak; he simply pointed to the sky and shook his head.

Recalling Bingxue's incredibly quick reaction earlier, Klein immediately understood what had happened. He didn't say anything more, only smiled:

"It seems I need to think about what to bring back for Miss ' Pure White ' as a souvenir for the rest of the trip."

As he said this, he had already taken out another Monster Marionette and transformed it into the likeness of Gehrman Sparrow —the "Forsaken Land of the Gods" was teeming with countless Monster, and during his time there, Klein had collected countless such Monster Marionette, replacing them as they broke.

After the Marionette entered the Historical Void and raced into the fragments from before the First Epoch, Klein unhesitatingly swapped the positions of his main body and the Marionette, allowing his main body to hide within the Historical Void.

Then, on a whim, he returned to "Sefirah Castle," sat in the seat designated for "The Fool," and, using his Marionette, began to examine the interior of the Giant King's residence.

However, in "True Vision," the inside was pitch black, with a faint tremor, making it impossible to see through.

As expected of the God's Left Hand, the Vice-King of Heaven... as expected of one of the personalities of that Creator... Speaking of which, I can't see what's going on with Neph anymore... Hmm, maybe that's a good thing. Perhaps after I Angel, she won't be able to keep an eye on me anymore. Otherwise, I always feel like she'll record some strange footage and print it out... No, videos shouldn't be printable... Uh, really not?

In this world steeped in Mysticism, Klein fell into deep thought.

He quickly forgot about these things. Colin Iliad observed the situation on the stairs and turned to tell Klein:

>p/<". There may also be an inner door, the force of the shadow falling into the doorway here"

>p/<. The fall of the spirit god who killed the disciple saint was still fearful, and the deepest understanding of the fall was what he wanted to say to him -- what was he worried about? Enlake, the mysterious "silver knight" on his Enlake, was in the line of sight when he fell, and he said this.

He only left because of this, and in that instant, he had also "fallen," and his shadow, Enlake, was also very likely to betray him. It's possible he had fallen into a mysterious state.

>p/<. He went back and forth, secretly changing partners and quietly again, saying that he... The 'darkness' of his strength is this.

>p/<: He sighed, exhaling a breath. He then entered the shadow of Enlake, who had been lost in the past, and began to explore their own methods. Next, he nodded slightly.

>p/<. This is so annoying!

>p/<. The verification has been completed, and the result is as follows: He lost contact with himself, and his spirit will fall into darkness. He can no longer use his own shadow to project into history or use secret methods to replace himself. This means that he really finds this troublesome. This is not a pretense.

>p/<. This guy is crazy and still has that family--

>p/<. The staff, inlaid with many kinds of black Shi Bao, was taken out from the air. Enlake flicked his wrist a few times, seemingly moving his hand. He shook his head.

>p/<!"Star of the Wand","26-0

"We should go now," he said with a slight smile, "I hope I won't betray this person, and I hope I still respect the host's authority."

>p/<. He went in and followed the secret agent behind him. He opened the door for him and started walking forward. The secret agent, "Silver Knight," stepped down from behind and pressed his hat down.

>p/<...

>p/<"? Are you still trapped in a religious discussion at the table?" sighed, shaking her head slightly, and looked up at the top of the church, looking towards the church of St. Frankel, the great church of St. Frankel, "..." and opened the Door Opening.

"It seems so," Archbishop Horamick replied, "But I think you should have your answer soon."

As he said, everywhere in the world where the sky is visible, people unconsciously look up.

A splash of orange-red surged into the sky, oblivious to time and distance, dyeing the horizon orange-red.

Those who live in the dawn zone see the boundary between dawn and Twilight; those who live in the Noon zone see the boundary between Noon and Twilight; those who live in the night zone see the boundary between nightfall and Twilight.

This orange-red hue seemed to stretch across the entire sky, making even those who already live in the Twilight feel that the gathering in the sky had become much more vibrant.

However, in Backlund, Neph can see more.

The remaining half of the sky instantly erupted in fury, silvery lightning crackling and proclaiming its master's rage. Neph shivered and asked rather earnestly:

"If that lightning strikes, can your church withstand it?"

"This..." Archbishop Horamick hesitated, "Why would you ask that?"

Neph coughed lightly and said softly, "After all, things have come to this point. I'm worried that He might disregard everything and take his anger out on me."

"Then..." Archbishop Horamick seemed even more hesitant, "So, what do you intend to do...?"

Neph didn't speak; she gently tapped the Mirror in her hand, silencing Archbishop Horamick once more.

On the Golden Dream," in the Captain's Quarters, Edwina scrutinized Danitz before her and warned:

"Danitz, are you sure you've thought this through? I must warn you, if you choose to exchange for the ' Demoness of Despair ' Potion recipe, your contribution points will absolutely not be enough to exchange for another one."

"I'm sure," Danitz said firmly, "I've made up my mind. If this can... I mean, experiencing another life might not be bad."

"Alright," Edwina sighed softly, "I understand. Since this is your decision... if you encounter any difficulties during the promotion Ritual, you can come to me for help."

She paused, then continued, "But I still hope you..."

"No need," Danitz said firmly, unusually so. "Captain, please give me the Potion formula!"

It was Twilight in Trier, and the orange-red light painted the sky a magnificent sunset. Outside an Opera, people in different spots admired the orange glow and chatted with their companions.

"A beautiful sunset..." "Yes, it has a very artistic feel..." "It would be perfect for photography..."

The murmurs didn't last long. Suddenly, on the other side of the orange-red sky, the Yang Guang intensified, and the brilliant Sun leaped up, hanging back in the center of the sky.

The intense, golden Yang Guang was more dazzling than ever before. Its rays shone down, blinding everyone. They squinted uncomfortably, uttering sounds of disbelief:

"What happened? What's going on?"

A similar phenomenon occurred in Lenburg, where a phantom tower emerged, each level composed of thick books, each book bearing a brass-colored eye. The higher the level, the darker and more pervasive the atmosphere, filled with madness, destruction, ominousness, and Catastrophe.

This tower stretches into the sky, as if it has enclosed the entire world within itself.

Inside the luxurious villa of the Audra family in Backlund.

All the Sanguine in this metropolis have gathered here to prepare for the outcome of the impending war.

Emlyn White, now Earl, stood by the window, hands in his pockets, bathed in the light of Twilight mingling with the Evernight, watching his kinsmen discuss current affairs with a hint of unease.

Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he turned his gaze to the window.

In the garden, clumps of withered yellow weeds have turned green again, growing rapidly and soon reaching a height of a person.

>p/<. The umbrella-like leaves, thick and strong branches, grow very quickly, reaching over ten meters in height, sprouting one node after another, growing wildly from who knows where, the branches grow, the trees are scattered, the shadows of which were not yet seen in the bombing, in another part of the city.

>p/<. The sky was half-hidden by the vast expanse of the Franks, even the giant trees of this and that were hidden from view.

>p/<. Over a hundred years ago, it was abandoned and seemingly destroyed, its vines and branches intertwined and crushed, leading to the construction of many buildings.

>p/<. Lin Senshiyuan became a change in the place, and many Delankebei, the worker's second eight seven short

>p/<...

>p/<. Items such as "Star of the Wand" on the right, the predecessor of the secret "Silver Knight", have been established by Enlake since he was born, and later the dark and mysterious inner palace of the king entered, the door is wide open and beyond

>p/<. The fall of the image has not yet occurred, nor has the corresponding "spirit of the line" appeared; the mutation has not yet manifested.

>p/<. The surrounding environment was examined, and Enlake's gaze was cast towards the scene. This situation was then carefully assessed.

>p/<. The surface layer is unique, with no visible traces of white brick or gray stone. It's a solidified, yellowish-white block of earth, and no matter where you look, it's invisible beyond a meter and a half. The atmosphere here is dark and gloomy, like a dense, oppressive atmosphere.

>p/<. He tried to summon the heavens, then grabbed at the empty space, reaching into Enlake's upturned lips, and thought for a moment.

>p/<! The connection to the lost and mysterious history and his past is due to the fog, and he quickly realized the answer to the question here.

>p/<... In this situation, I'm not paying attention to whether it's outside the law or not, it's the same as this.

>p/<: Speaking of the local guest, he smiled slightly and accepted the greeting, then paused for a moment and Enlake.

>p/<". Let's continue our exploration. I need to prepare a gift first. I don't have one here for the host yet. Suddenly I remembered."

>p/<. He looked at the madman with divine eyes, and when he raised his head, he saw the "Blood Iron Knight" Moon City Yue and Teyarii Link...

>p/<: He tried to probe, Enlake reacted very quickly. He had rich experience and Link. He was very good at it. But not long ago, he was very good at it.

I want you

"Summon a Historical Projection, and bring it in as you would bring Marionette or Sealed Artifact?"

"Of course," Klein said matter-of-factly, "It's always impolite to come without a gift, isn't it?"

The other two had no objections, but they seemed hesitant to speak in his manner. Klein didn't mind; he took a few steps back, then suddenly stopped and chuckled softly.

"Well, it seems the host here is very hospitable; he doesn't mind at all that I didn't bring a gift."

The faint light that once illuminated the entrance had been swallowed by the deep darkness and vanished without a trace.

Colin Iliad looked around and said, "We have no choice but to move forward."

They had only taken a few steps when Colin Iliad suddenly stopped and looked behind him.

"We're one person short." His voice turned somber.

"I saw it," Klein said with a smile. "He was invited in."

"What—" Colin Iliad opened his mouth instinctively, but the shadow beneath him suddenly swelled up, about to engulf him.

He hurriedly raised his slender silver sword, but before the dawn's light could illuminate even a corner, Klein stopped him, saying:

>p/<. Quickly, please leave.

>p/<". The letter of invitation is for you to belong to this"

>p/<. He disappeared, and the whole person inside him was wrapped up. In that instant, taking advantage of the shadow, he suddenly Link.

>p/<"! Let's come": The way of calling out like that welcoming, arms open wide Enlake

>p/<. He also took away, and the disc's shadow spun around, just like that.
