As a Demigod, it is not easy to avoid a meteorite rain.

But don't forget one thing. Although Kronos and Time Barrier prevented the second wave of doom from coming, the first wave is still exerting its effect.

Of course, the bad luck sent by a Demigod-level Misfortune Mage cannot be completely dissipated in just a few minutes.

Therefore, most of Kronos's methods will be directly interrupted by bad luck if used at this moment.

Fortunately Kronos and Power of Time.

I saw Green Light on Kronos's body flash, and then the whole person disappeared in place.

He directly chose to use his Time Godbody to escape into Timeline. As long as he came out after the meteor shower ended, this Catastrophe would be completely avoided.

About half an hour later, Kronos returned from the past Timeline, and the meteorite rain had completely ended.

Seeing the messy scene, Kronos's first thought was to run quickly.

With such a big movement, Republic of Intis's forces will come to investigate soon.

If only one Misfortune Mage died, the problem might not be big, but after all, a Intis military member Demigod died here.

So Kronos didn't hesitate at all, grabbed the bodies of Misfortune Mage and Iron-Blooded Knight, and started running away.

In order to prevent being trapped by bad luck, Kronos is still driving Time God Domain even when running.

By controlling the flow rate of time, Kronos perfectly avoided many small troubles, all the way to the Secret Room of Fan Aisting.

There was no one in Secret Room. Obviously, Roel was very obedient. After Kronos lured General Adri away, they left directly.

Well, since they have left, Kronos will directly occupy this position.

Although the battle is over, his misfortune is still upon him.

Kronos can feel that without three days and five days, this bad luck will not go away.

This situation is not suitable for running away at all. Although Time God Domain can help avoid a lot of troubles, Time God Domain cannot be driven for three to five days, and Spirituality in the body cannot hold it.

So it is a wiser choice to find a secret location to hide for a while.

Beyonder Item, who was shielding and investigating in Secret Room, has disappeared, apparently taken away by Roel, so Kronos began to arrange Ritual Magic.

If the Ritual Magic arranged before might still have flaws, the current Kronos has no such worries at all.

High-ranking Deacon, a Nighthawks, borrows the power of Evernight Goddess to arrange a secretive Ritual Magic. If the buffs are stacked up, Angel will not be able to find it easily.

After Ritual was completed, Kronos found a place to sit cross-legged, drank a bottle of Genesis Potions, and then began to meditate to restore his Spirituality.

The battle just now consumed a lot of Kronos. The injuries on his body have not recovered much, and Spirituality has also consumed more than half of it.

I just took this opportunity to take a good rest.

More than twenty minutes after Kronos left, a man exuding Blazing White Light appeared in the center of the battle.

Then came several other people with very powerful auras.

Counting carefully, Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun, Church of Steam and Machinery, Republic of Intis intelligence agency, Republic of Intis military, people from the most powerful organizations in this land are all here.

If it hadn't been for that meteorite shower, they might not have been able to notice what was happening here. The meteorite shower was really too loud.

These people tried many ways to find out what happened here, and the first method was divination.

But don't say that Kronos is used for Time Barrier. Even if it is not used, Blasphemy Card has the ability to obscure divination, so in the end nothing is gained.

After trying a variety of restoration methods, they roughly made some conclusions.

There have been three Demigod here, one is General Adri from the military, and the identities of the other two are unknown.

But it can be judged from the battle traces that one of them should be Misfortune Mage.

Because the traces of earthquakes and meteorites are so obvious, except for Wheel of Fortune Pathway, other Pathway have no similar means at all.

Through the military's Information, it can be determined that General Adri should have died.

Finally, they came to a conclusion.

Two Demigod sneaked into the military camp and stole Defense Map. General Adri sent his subordinates to search, and finally found their traces.

But because General Adri did not expect that there were two people on the other side, he underestimated the enemy and pursued him alone.

In the end, he died under the joint efforts of two Demigod.

They knew so little about Information that it was pretty good to come to such a conclusion.

In this case, the two Demigod still had the means to conceal the divination, but they couldn't think of any good countermeasures, so they almost gave up.

It wasn't until two days later that the subordinate of General Adri trapped by Kronos came out of the barrier that they got more Information.

There was a problem with their judgment of the situation.

Those two Demigod are obviously not on the same team, and the fight may even be the result of a three-party melee.

The military personnel immediately went to Village at Roel's house, but the people in the village had no idea about Roel's Information, and they didn't even know which country it was in.

But at this time, it was too late to arrest Roel because the ship Roel was on was already approaching Midseashire.

For Restoration's own injury, Kronos consumed a total of three bottles of Genesis Potions, and only then did the injury completely disappear.

On the third day after he entered Secret Room, he felt that the power of bad luck had dissipated.

In the past three days, even if he was hiding in Secret Room, he would often encounter snakes, Rat and the like to harass him.

Big troubles obviously can't be found, but small troubles really never stop at all.

After finally waiting for the bad luck to dissipate, Kronos directly opened Spirit World Traversal and returned to Conston City of Midseashire.

Although he had not discussed the meeting place with Roel, he believed that Roel must be here waiting for him.

After releasing Ariadne's Thread, Kronos easily followed the ball of wool to find Roel.

In fact, Roel is just Constant City.

Kronos originally wanted to send Roel and Fan Aisting back to Iron Anchor, but Fan Aisting had a different opinion and wanted to follow Kronos.

"With the current state of Energy Core, I can continue to live for ten years, but I can't make a single move in these ten years. If I can't talk, I don't even plan to continue living."

"If I follow you, I may have the opportunity to make a new Puppet, and then continue to rely on the new Puppet to survive."

"Believe me, I will be of great use to you."

Kronos must believe what Fan·Aisting said. A Church of Steam and Machinery Archbishop who was once active in the Roselle period and a former Sequence 4 Alchemist are very useful to everyone.

So after Kronos thought about it again and again, we finally decided to agree to his request.

"If you want to recreate Puppet, what materials do you need?"

Since we decided to keep him, we naturally hope to bring his abilities into full play. What's the use of a Energy Core who can only talk, so Kronos is directly preparing to help him recreate Puppet.

"Actually, I don't need any special materials. After all, I neither like nor am good at fighting, but I hope to have a copy of Alchemist and Beyonder Characteristic as the core, so that I can maximize my abilities."

Kronos frowned, the requirements set by Sequence were not easy to meet.

"I now have two copies of Demigod and Beyonder Characteristic. If you need it, I can help you now, but if you want Alchemist, you have to wait."

The corpses of Misfortune Mage and Iron-Blooded Knight are still unprocessed in Mask Space. If Fan·Aisting can accept it, they can be used by him now.

But Fan·Aisting thought for a while and then said, "I will follow you now, and everything will be decided by you."

"If there is Beyonder Characteristic of Alchemist, after remaking Puppet, I will be able to help you make Beyonder Item. However, I do not have complete control over the power of other Sequence, and I am not strong enough to fight Consciousness."

"So it's up to you how you choose."

Fan·Aisting said so, what else can Kronos say?

What's more, what they said makes sense. Whether it's Misfortune Mage or Iron-Blooded Knight, if he doesn't control it well, his combat power may be at the level of Sequence 5, which is basically of no help to Kronos.

But if there is a copy of Alchemist, the knowledge accumulated in his mind will become his greatest foundation, and he can arm Kronos to his teeth.

So in the end Kronos decided to let Fan·Aisting wait.

Since Energy Core is not suitable to be placed in a large space and is not convenient to carry around, Roel finally transformed it into a Ring and brought it to Kronos.

After sending Roel back to Iron Anchor, Kronos also left Beyonder Characteristic of Iron-Blooded Knight on Iron Anchor.

Logically speaking, Beyonder Characteristic from Iron-Blooded Knight should be able to make a Beyonder Item that is very good at attacking.

But Kronos himself knew that he simply could not find a suitable person to make it Beyonder Item.

Whether it is Roel or Sharf, it is already a bit reluctant to build Sequence 5 and Beyonder Item. If they are asked to build Demigod level, the failure rate is not generally high. Even if it succeeds, it is uncontrollable how serious the negative effects will be.

Therefore, Kronos finally decided to give this Beyonder Characteristic to Todd to help him be promoted to Demigod.

With the help of Demigod, it is not only good for Kronos, but also the safety factor of Iron Anchor can become higher.

As for Misfortune Mage and Beyonder Characteristic, they have no other uses for the time being, so just keep them for now.

If there is a chance to get a Beyonder Characteristic of Alchemist in the future, maybe Fan·Aisting can help him create a good Beyonder Item.

And Kronos's gains from this battle don't stop there, there's also Beyonder Item.

I have to say, General Adri is really poor. As a Demigod, he only has two pieces of Sequence 6 and Beyonder Item.

If something of this level didn't have any unique abilities, Kronos wouldn't even bother to take a look at it.

General Adri is Demigod from the military. Even the opportunity for promotion was given by the military. After being promoted, he has been in the military all the time.

I don't have the opportunity to go out and make a living. If I want to get Beyonder Item, I have to rely on the gift from my boss, so I am indeed relatively poor.

As for that Misfortune Mage, it is not the same situation at all.

Even if this Misfortune Mage didn't reveal too much about Information, Kronos also knew that the Dream Stealer he killed at that time was his son, and he also had a father of Demigod level.

At that time, he was only Sequence 5, and it was only recently that he broke through to Demigod.

This is the complete Beyonder family, and it is the kind where one Demigod comes out of every generation.

If factors such as money and title are not considered, this family can definitely crush Argel Family.

So this Misfortune Mage is extremely rich even if he has just been promoted a few days ago.

I have one piece of Demigod grade Beyonder Item, and one piece of Sequence 5 grade Beyonder Item.

The Beyonder Item of Sequence 5 is the "Winner's Protection" of Wheel of Fortune Pathway. Its ability is to assist the user, making it easier to adjust good and bad luck.

From a functional point of view, it is more like Beyonder Item specially customized by this family to enhance its own Pathway.

In this case, I also have Beyonder Item and Kronos at home, such as Mystic Pouch, and Inscribing Pen.

This ability of Beyonder Item is basically of no use to other Pathway, and the negative effects are extremely low, so it can basically be regarded as non-existent.

And that Demigod-level Beyonder Item is the Token he used before.

"Curse of the Marionette: corresponds to Hanged Man Pathway Sequence 4 Marionette"

"Beyonder Ability: 1. Marionettization can transform the body into Marionette, reducing the damage caused by physical attacks.

2. In the Marionettization state, through the established contact Curse opponent, the damage you suffer will be reflected to the opponent."

"Negative effect: If the Marionette state is maintained for more than one minute, the whole body will remain Marionettization for one year; if it is maintained for more than five minutes, it will be completely Marionettization and will not recover."

The negative effect of this Beyonder Item is really fierce. If you are not careful, it will directly become Marionettization, changing from a human to a Marionette.

No wonder after being attacked by Mind Breath, Misfortune Mage stared at Kronos with such hatred.

He must have been dizzy for more than a minute. Even if he won in the end, he would have to live with Marionette's body for a year.

Thinking of this, Kronos felt that he was a good person for not letting him live such a social life.
