Stiano's test
The big light golden hand crossed the shackles of space and shrouded the position of Hidden Sage.
If Hidden Sage hadn't run so fast, Kronos's current position would have been within the envelope.
It was precisely because Hidden Sage could no longer care about Kronos's situation that Kronos got a chance to breathe. He suppressed the pain in his head and looked in the direction of Hidden Sage.
Hidden Sage originally wanted to escape quickly, so he quickly escaped in the direction of the Argel Manor.
But after he Consciousness to God of Steam and Machinery took action, he no longer focused all his energy on running, but on preparing to deal with this attack.
Hidden Sage has experienced this situation many times over the years.
It is precisely because God of Steam and Machinery is tied to Astral World and needs to defend Outer Deity that it is impossible to keep an eye on him all the time, which is why he escaped many times.
So he knew that as long as he withstood the first blow, he could escape smoothly, because God of Steam and Machinery did not have the ability to Descent of God or deliver a second full blow in a short period of time.
So Hidden Sage quickly shrunk his figure, slowly turning from an illusory torrent of Information into a clear mass of Information Stream.
This is condensing one's own form.
When attacking Kronos, Hidden Sage was like a Yangtze River, just branching off into a small tributary, and Kronos could no longer bear it.
But when facing God of Steam and Machinery, Hidden Sage chose to condense Yangtze River together and exploded with all its strength.
Just when the pale golden hand was completely in front of Hidden Sage, the group of Information broke out and charged towards the big hand.
Under the impact of Information Stream, the forward force of the big hand was completely blocked, and it was still melting away.
First, the fingers of the big hand gradually became thinner, and finally were completely washed away.
Then came the palm. The power here was obviously stronger than that of the fingers. I persisted for a while, but under the constant impact of Hidden Sage, it finally completely dissipated.
After God of Steam and Machinery's blow completely dissipated, Hidden Sage obviously breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned into countless Information Stream and dissipated in the space.
After confirming that God of Steam and Machinery has no ability to continue attacking, Hidden Sage can naturally leave without hesitation.
As Hidden Sage left, Kronos also breathed a sigh of relief.
After his head got used to it a little, Kronos got up and returned to the room he was in, ready to check on the status of his father and Grandfather.
At this time, Marquis Argel still didn't know that Hidden Sage had left, and was still fully supporting Concealment Scarf.
Seeing Kronos come in, I relaxed a little.
"Father, that guy has left, you can relax a little." Kronos said.
After hearing what Kronos said, Marquis Argel dared to withdraw Concealment Scarf.
Only then did Kronos see the situation between his father and Grandfather.
There is no big problem with Marquis Argel, but the consumption of Spirituality is a bit high. After all, Concealment Scarf is also a divine product, and its status is not lower than that of the ordinary Grade 0 Sealed Artifact, so the consumption is also very large.
As for Old Man, the situation is not that good. From the chest down, it is already Informationization, and it is already in a semi-Loss of Control state.
Although it is not completely Loss of Control, if this state is not reversed, it will definitely be difficult to get back from the promoted state.
It means that Loss of Control will not be completely dead, nor will Demigod be promoted to wake up.
This is still a balance that Old Man forcibly maintains with his willpower. If it were an ordinary person, he would have completely Loss of Control it.
Faced with such a situation, let alone Marquis Argel, even Kronos has no idea what to do.
At this moment, a voice sounded in Kronos's head, "Come to Church."
The emotion in the voice was very indifferent. It sounded like the voice of a middle-aged man with no characteristics, but Kronos guessed that this was either God of Steam and Machinery or the messenger of True God.
Kronos was a little hesitant. He was not too worried about his identity being exposed, but the relationship between his family and Church of Steam and Machinery was really awkward.
I just used God of Steam and Machinery again. It is reasonable for people to beat me to death in anger.
Just when Kronos was hesitating, a female voice rang in Kronos's head, "Go, don't worry, it's okay."
This voice Kronos is very familiar. Isn't it his "thigh" Amanises? Now that he has a backer, he is no longer afraid.
The reason why Amanises is able to pay attention here is because of Stiano's action.
One True God acted so unscrupulously, not to mention other True God, all Angel on the mainland were aware of it.
As for those True God, they saw Kronos immediately. Kronos was now considered a person known by God.
But because these gods were paying attention to Hidden Sage at the first time, and Amanises immediately cast a secret on Kronos, they did not discover the "specialness" of Kronos.
So Kronos has no trouble now.
Concealment Scarf is now back with Kronos, and there are absolutely no flaws in him, so Amanises reassures him.
With a backer paying attention, Kronos really didn't have to worry so much, so Kronos sorted out his clothes a little, and then walked into Small Church's house.
Because Kronos did not cause any damage to Church, and the gun was bounced by Stiano, there was no change in Church.
There is only one, and that is the Triangular Sacred Emblem in the Church hall, which is shining with pale golden brilliance.
This situation convinced Kronos that the person communicating with him should be Stiano himself, because no matter who it was, even Pope Ivan was not qualified to communicate with others in the name of Triangular Sacred Emblem.
This holy emblem is the representative of God of Steam and Machinery.
After Kronos stood still, a voice sounded from Church.
"You are so brave that you saved yourself by attacking my holy symbol. Do you know that this offends me?"
The emotion in his voice was still very indifferent, but there was clearly dissatisfaction in his words.
Regarding Stiano's dissatisfaction, Kronos had no other choice but to bow and salute, and then said, "I'm sorry, I don't know how I should make up for this Error."
If you are facing a Angel who is Church of Steam and Machinery, Kronos may be a little bit more pretentious, but facing a True God who is so much higher than yourself, being pretentious will only be counterproductive.
What's more, the indifference in Stiano's tone made Kronos a little guessing.
This person was forcibly promoted before Sequence One had fully digested it. As a result, Church of Artisans at that time did not get Divine Oracle for a long time.
If Emperor Roselle hadn't appeared out of nowhere and helped him digest Beyonder Characteristic, maybe it wouldn't be certain that he would be in Loss of Control's current state?
And such extreme situations always have some side effects, and that side effect may be the loss of all humanity, which is why His words are so indifferent.
Moreover, Emperor Roselle's son was selected as the beloved one, and by influencing the soul, his divinity prevailed over his humanity. Even if it was to restrict Roselle, no one with any human mind would be able to do such an operation.
Therefore, Kronos's guess is very likely to be correct.
Facing such an extremely rational True God, choosing to accept the punishment directly would have the best effect.
"Evernight took you over, and I stopped letting the church continue to target your family. You should thank me for this."
"After your Ancestor reached an agreement with me, I have been protecting your family. You should also thank me for this."
"I didn't expect that you would choose to use me in the end, or in a way that is almost blasphemous."
"You do deserve to be punished."
Stiano's words made Kronos feel bad. It was obvious that he wanted to punish himself heavily.
Just when Kronos was about to open his mouth to explain himself, a female voice suddenly sounded, "That's enough, he is mine, don't go too far."
Thighs are always very reliable at critical moments.
Kronos originally wanted to witness the discussion and bargaining between the two True God.
As a result, Church suddenly became quiet, and neither True God spoke again.
The constantly shining golden light on Triangular Sacred Emblem told Kronos that Consciousness of Stiano had not left, but that the two True God had "shielded" him who was originally in the group chat.
After a period of negotiation, Amanises's voice sounded first.
"Kronos, I will leave the mark of Blessed on your body. If there is anything urgent in the future, you can come to me and don't bother other God."
Kronos has always positioned himself as Amanises's collaborator. Perhaps Amanises also thinks the same way, so he has never left any mark on him.
But this time, Amanises left a the Star Mark, just on the arm of Kronos.
Regarding this situation, Kronos is actually somewhat reluctant. With this mark, Kronos's actions are basically under the control of Amanises.
But Kronos has no choice. He can't refuse this in front of Stiano, right? Doesn't that mean that he has denied the idea that he is Amanises?
After Amanises left his mark, he stopped talking, but Stiano spoke.
"Since Evernight has come to intercede for you, I won't punish you severely this time. I just have a small task to give you."
No matter what kind of mission this is, the description given by True God cannot be believed.
Sure enough, Stiano continued, "I can give you a location. This is a stronghold of Moses Ascetic Order. If you clear this stronghold, the mission will be completed."
At this time, Kronos asked carefully, "How strong is the power in this stronghold?"
Stiano replied indifferently, "Initially, it is estimated that there is only one Demigod, and it is a task that you can complete."
Looking at the situation, it really wasn't a big task, so Kronos saluted respectfully, and then said, "Thank you for your kindness."
After getting the response from Kronos, the light on Triangular Sacred Emblem disappeared.
Just after Kronos breathed a sigh of relief, the Star Mark on his arm suddenly emitted a dark mist, directly swallowing Kronos.
When his eyes lit up again, he appeared in Darkened Heaven.
Kronos's appearance rate in Darkened Heaven is indeed a bit high during this period, even more often than when he went home.
Before Kronos could salute, Amanises spoke first, "Do you feel that the task He gave you is very simple?"
Kronos was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Yes, if there is only one Demigod, this task is indeed not difficult."
As a result, Amanises said, "Have you ever thought about it, you are Kronos of Sequence 4, not Horamick of Sequence 3. Facing a Demigod of the same level, and many Mid-Sequence Beyonder, is this task really simple?"
Kronos then remembered that Kronos's counterpoint was only Sequence 4. If Sequence was promoted now, the promotion speed would indeed be a bit fast.
Klein can be promoted so quickly because many people are helping him, but the situation of Kronos is different.
Kronos fell into deep thought. After a while, he said, "I did not consider this matter. Did God of Steam and Machinery notice something?"
Kronos feels that this "rational" True God will not do anything unnecessary.
"We will pay attention to you because of His full strength, and those True God's focus is on Hidden Sage. I was the only one who saw you at the first time and kept it secret."
"I don't know about the other True God, but it's hard to say for Steam. He may have sensed the same aura as Pathway from your body."
"This is because the Authority of Time on your body has a certain shielding effect. If not, your Sequence will be exposed to His eyes immediately, because He is the True God of your Pathway."
"It should be this vague feeling that made him a little suspicious, but he was not sure. This feeling disappeared, so he wanted to test you."
"In subsequent missions, as long as you show a little bit of Scholar of Yore's aura, you will be noticed by him immediately, and then you can determine the identity of Horamick."
"When the time comes, you will probably be slapped to death, and I am also in a state of loss, so I cannot save you. This is your current situation."
After listening to what Amanises said, Kronos felt really helpless. Is this the only way to go undercover?
