As Trissy passed through the illusory gate, she vanished again, leaping off the cliff at the entrance and plunging into the bottomless, dark valley.
The secret mausoleum of the " Blood Emperor " Tudor is hidden there.
During her descent, Trissy's body felt as light as a feather, having lost most of its weight, yet she was not slow at all.
None of the few remaining guards noticed that she had infiltrated.
Just as Trissy was about to reach her target, a voice suddenly rang in her ears:
Concealment is prohibited here.
Trissy's figure appeared irresistibly, and a man had appeared in the sky above the majestic mausoleum at the bottom of the dark valley.
The man had a somewhat rectangular face, wore a white wig, had two upturned mustaches, extremely thick eyebrows, and relatively large eyes.
Dressed in formal attire, draped in a cloak, and with extremely long toes, his attire was out of step with the times; he was none other than Prince Grove, the Demigod who supported George III.
The Sequence 3 " Disorder Hunter " wears a crown woven from thorns, from which pure light constantly converges, weaving into an "ocean".
Sealed Artifact "0-36".
Downstream of the Tussock River, Klein had just led the Marionette Qonas and Enuni through the illusory gate when a scene suddenly flashed into his mind:
A dark, pointed church stood before them, its wide doors open, revealing a man in overalls, a gentleman in a formal suit and top hat, a girl with ruffled cuffs, and a lady in a dress with lace forming flowers...
They were all suspended in mid-air, motionless.
"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!"
Black crows circled around the church spire, emitting chilling cries.
Without a single other guess, Klein felt as if he had fallen into a crack in a frozen lake, his whole body chilled and his hair standing on end.
Countless thoughts surged through his mind, all rushing together to shout out one name:
Zaratul!
In an instant, Klein instinctively made a decision: to Marionette Swap outside and escape the "church" before him.
Clearly, he had encountered a "miracle"—after passing through that illusory door, he failed to enter George III's secret tomb and instead arrived at a strange place.
The next second, he found that the " Spirit Body Threads " connecting him to the Marionette world had broken off and were rapidly rising upwards, drifting towards the interior of the dark church.
If it weren't for his extraordinary intuition that foresaw the danger, he would have been too late to react and would have been suspended, becoming one of those Marionette.
Without time to think further, Klein swiftly Manipulation the " Spirit Body Threads," retrieving them all and connecting them to himself, forming one "circle" after another.
This temporarily averted the crisis, but also cost him the Marionette Qonas and Enuni in just a second.
The necks of the two Marionette suddenly tightened, and they were lifted up by an " Invisible Hand " and suspended inside the steeple church.
They swayed in the wind along with the original corpses, uttering sounds that differed in tone but conveyed the same message:
"Welcome back..."
In Memorial Day Square, an Envisioning King George III is still giving a speech:
"... I will further lower the property requirements for suffrage and transfer more power to the House of Commons..."
Although the public didn't quite understand why the speech had taken this turn, they thought it sounded pretty good.
"These are all bills that have been passed by the House of Lords, but there's no need to tell the public about them during the speech... It's like the King is emphasizing that this plan will inevitably be followed in the future..." Audrey was puzzled but couldn't find an explanation that could convince herself.
Inside the " Number 1 Ruins " on the outskirts of Backlund, in a deep, majestic, secret mausoleum.
The real George III had already donned the black crown and taken the Potion.
His body was transforming towards the Shadow of Order, expanding and extending in a wondrous state, while the nine mausoleums were islands in a void ocean, components of the entire rule. The "Emperor George III " chanted by the people during the ceremony were countless, densely packed lighthouses, anchoring this ruler of the Loen, East Balam, and Rorsted Archipelago, preventing him from completely detaching from reality and becoming part of the Shadow of Order.
During this process, George III's thoughts wandered uncontrollably, as if being torn apart:
" Zaratul of the Secret Order actually contacted me directly, hoping to offer assistance..."
"He said that He gleaned some of Gehrman Sparrow's thoughts from events such as the Capim case, the attack on the ' Disease Maiden,' the murder of the Mad Captain, and the disappearance of Qonas Kilgor. His Divination results led Him to cooperate with me, to help me guard a mausoleum, awaiting Gehrman Sparrow to come to Him voluntarily due to his own purposes and the Law of Beyonder Characteristics Convergence..."
He also said that the most important thing in dealing with a qualified Demigod who is a " Seer " is patience and composure...
"What a charlatan..."
He also brought the ' God's Abomination ' Suah...
"I used my abilities to make a contract with them..."
"With the help I've brought from the ' Hermits of Fate ' and Grove and his Grove who wield '0' level Sealed Artifact, even if most of the Demigod from the military and royal family are fighting on the front lines or protecting Backlund, I no longer need to worry about the ritual being disrupted, unless a true god descends upon reality..."
"But that's impossible... So, what I originally just wanted to use to lure out 'opponents' ultimately decided to take this opportunity to get promoted directly..."
"Heh, Grove doesn't know about these hidden trump cards yet, and he's not qualified to know..."
"In a little while, no more than two minutes, I will become an eternal god, the ' Black Emperor ' who rules reality..."
"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!"
In the dark world echoing with the cawing of crows, the corpses hanging inside the black-spired church simultaneously fell, passing over the main entrance.
Their eyes were all fixed on Klein outside.
Almost simultaneously, a figure slowly but firmly outlined itself in mid-air.
Klein didn't bother to see what it was; while maintaining the special state of the " Spirit Body Threads," he quickly snapped his fingers.
Snap!
A ball of crimson flame erupted from his wallet, instantly engulfing him.
The flames died down quickly, but Klein remained where he was, unable to leap away.
He showed no sign of frustration, immediately driven by his " Creeping Hunger," and attempted to " Teleportation."
Klein became transparent for a moment, then reappeared, unable to move an inch.
His starting point and his ending point seemed to be strangely connected.
At this moment, the figure in mid-air had taken shape. He was dressed in rather magnificent clothes, with long, slightly wavy chestnut hair, Blue Eyes, a high nose, and thin lips. He was none other than Roselle Gustav from the time of the Great Emperor.
He looked down at Klein, his eyes filled with countless illusory symbols.
Klein's mind suddenly swelled, flooded with a large amount of knowledge, the usefulness of which was unknown.
At that moment, he felt like his head was about to explode; all other thoughts were completely occupied, to the point that he couldn't even move a finger.
Instinctively, Klein let those knowledge fragments rush into the hundreds of " Worm of Spirit ".
This restored his ability to control his body, and he quickly reached forward with his right hand.
His arm suddenly became heavy, then he pulled back sharply, leaving a trail of silvery-white, scaleless tail as the Marionette launched their attack through the church doors and two more figures appeared in mid-air.
As Klein released his right hand, a Serpent appeared in this dark realm.
His eyes were bright red and cold, and his body was covered with countless rotating discs composed of patterns and symbols, each with slightly different details.
" The Snake of Fate!"
This wasn't actually summoned by Klein from Historical Void, but rather by Will Auceptin using the " Yesterday Once More " spell, directly harnessing the power of the burned origami cranes.
--Klein used " Flame Jump " first to take the opportunity to ask " Snake of Fate " for help.
The reason he made that grab was to disguise himself, so that the hostile Angel wouldn't discover the location of the " Snake of Fate " and put Doctor. Allen and his family in danger.
--This is different from dealing with Amon's clone. Klein wasn't confident he could eliminate the clues, so he discussed with Will beforehand how to handle similar situations.
Fortunately, the message given by Will Auceptin indicated that the true nature of the "summoning" had not been discovered.
At this moment, the enormous Mercury Snake coiled up, opened its mouth and bit its own tail, transforming into a mysterious and exaggerated rotating wheel.
In mid-air, two more figures appeared on either side of Roselle's projection. One was William Augustus I, who was currently engaged in a fierce battle with the " Mystery Queen " Bernadette. He was the " Hand of Order," Sequence 1 being composed of pure light, with pairs of radiant wings growing from his back, clearly possessing the rank of Angel!
Suddenly, the two newly appeared Angel projections vanished, and the Marionette that had subjected Klein to various attacks and controls retreated back into the church and were suspended again.
Qonas and Enuni emerged one after the other, accompanied by Klein, and walked backward through the illusory gate, leaving the world echoing with the cries of crows, and appeared in the lower reaches of the Tussock River.
" The Snake of Fate ", " Restart!"
The scaleless Serpent vanished, and Klein immediately activated " Teleportation," traversing through countless Spirit World creatures to arrive outside another secret tomb. He used his remaining blood to trace symbols and open the illusory gate.
This time, he entered the interior and saw the solemn and dark mausoleum. He then summoned the " Sea God Scepter " and unleashed terrifying " Lightning Storm " time and time again, shattering his target.
Then, Klein turned and left the scene.
Everything went so smoothly, like a beautiful dream.
Yes, a sweet dream.
Klein always manages to stay lucid in his dreams, found himself in a real dream woven by someone else as soon as he entered the ruins containing the secret tomb!
