"To bring a lost history back to the present era... back, not to reproduce... these two have completely different meanings. It's not that I'm completing the ritual by writing down the true history of the Fourth or Third Age and spreading it..." Klein's right hand, which was holding the pen, paused, and he instinctively began to analyze the contents of Potion " Miracle Invoker " potion.
After a moment's thought, he found something that perfectly fit the requirements of the ceremony.
That is to allow the people of City of Silver to escape the Forsaken Land of the Gods, return to the Northern Continent, and bring the history that has been lost for two or three thousand years to the present era!
"This is no easier than evading Amon's pursuit. The only known way to leave the Forsaken Land of the Gods is to enter the ' Giant King's Court ' and open the palace of the slumbering ' Dark Angel ' Sasrir. He is the negative personality of the Ancient The Sun God, ranked first among the Angel King, known as the Left Hand of God and the Heaven's Deputy. He might even be more powerful than Amon now... Moreover, his current state has attracted the attention of the gods... Hmm, the advantage over getting rid of Amon's control before is that I can make preparations in advance..." Klein slowly exhaled, feeling that the ritual still had a certain probability of success.
In truth, he knew very well that even without him, City of Silver would try again and again to open the gates of the Giant King's residence and find a way to leave this abandoned land, like moths drawn to a flame, until their dying breath.
Regardless, with my "joining," the chances of success will definitely be higher than they are now... Klein subconsciously wanted to lure Amon in when opening the gate to the " Dark Angel's " Land of Slumber, creating chaos to offset the damage caused by the " Dark Angel's " awakening.
This is a tactic he is quite proficient in.
However, he ultimately rejected the idea because it was simply too dangerous.
Having spent this time with Amon and truly witnessed the status of the Angel King, Klein instinctively feared these terrifying beings and no longer harbored any thoughts of using their conflicts to create chaos.
Their mere existence is enough to inflict unbearable damage on the Beyonder and the entire region around them!
In this situation, attempting to create chaos through them is not merely walking on the edge of Abyss, where one wrong step could lead to a fall. Without the resolve to plunge into the Abyss and eternal Hell, it is best not to try.
Unless there is absolutely no other way, even escape is a pipe dream, and Klein doesn't want to make similar attempts again.
"Indeed, the extraordinary abilities of ' Miracle Invoker ' partly stem from history, hence the ritual requirements... How would other ' Scholar of Yore ' complete this?" Klein gazed at the parchment spread out on the bronze table, pondering possible solutions from another angle. "If it were me, I could only try to isolate certain people, certain histories, from reality until they are forgotten, before allowing them to return to the present era. This might take three hundred, five hundred years, or even longer... It's truly an evil act... Heh, it inexplicably reminds me of the Peach Blossom Spring..."
After this reflection, Klein believed that for other " Scholar of Yore," the difficulty of this ritual still lay in whether their own lives could sustain them to the end, and that such isolation was prone to being broken by too many unexpected events.
" The Forsaken Land of the Gods perfectly solved these difficulties, but it brought even greater ones... ' Dark Angel ' Sasrir... What state is this Heaven's Deputy in now? Is it related to the resurrection arrangements of the Ancient The Sun God...? The level involved has reached the ceiling of this world... Why do I always get involved in similar things..." Klein chuckled self-deprecatingly, probably guessing that the Fate -related impact of the " Sefirah Castle " was involved.
It should be noted that even the " Blasphemer " Amon was reluctant to bear such Fate.
Suppressing his wandering thoughts, Klein brought his attention back to the " Miracle Invoker " Potion recipe itself:
"Is the ' Worm of Star ' from the ' Apprentice ' pathway? The auxiliary materials include high-end Spirituality materials from three similar pathways... I've already turned the ' Worm of Time ' into a ' Fate Siphon ' talisman, it can't be restored. Can I ask Grandpa Leonard to lend me another one? How can you call it a loan? I'm going to exchange it for an upgraded version of the ' Yesterday Once More ' talisman!"
"Where can I find the ' Worm of Star '...? There aren't many Demigod who survive the ' Apprentice ' path in the real world... ' The Saint of Secrets ' Botis of the Aurora Order? But I'm in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, I can't go out and deal with him... I can only ask the ' The Hermit ' lady and the ' Mystery Queen ' for help, and at the same time, I must urge the ' Magician ' lady to become a ' Traveler ' as soon as possible... Hmm, I'll also have her ask her teacher where to find the ' Worm of Star '..."
"The main ingredient is now only one type, either the heart of the Dark Demonic Wolf or other Beyonder Characteristic extracted by ' Miracle Invoker,' no longer a combination of two..."
"Well, that means that at this level, there are very few dispersed characteristics; they have all already achieved a certain degree of aggregation..."
" The Dark Demonic Wolf, also known as the ' God of Wishes,' is a standard Angel. If I can't find usable materials, am I supposed to 'slay a god'?"
" The Angel level can already be considered Hidden Existence, fundamentally different from Sequence 3..."
"Just thinking about it is terrifying..."
Klein listed the helpers he could get, which made him feel much more at ease. He felt like he had enough debt to repay and was no longer afraid.
He raised his right hand, which was holding the pen, and continued to Record the knowledge he had gained.
Most of this was already known to him; consider it a memory.
Finally, Klein wrote a fragmented message in the corner of the parchment:
Sequence 1: The Attendant of Mysteries.
Main ingredient: One ' Attendant of Mysteries ' Beyonder Characteristic.
This information implies that the Beyonder Characteristic of Sequence 1 are difficult to obtain through other means; only one of the three options can be chosen.
"One copy is on the half of the ' The Fool ' on the main peak of the Hornacis Mountain Range, together with ' Uniqueness '; another copy is with Zaratul; and the third copy, according to Leonard, is a clue to the ' True Creator' —where could it be...? Right, the northern city-state ruins of North, where Little ' The Sun ' and the others hunted the Shapeshifter, seem to have a high-level being hiding in the ' Seer ' pathway. I wonder if it corresponds to a ' Miracle Invoker ' or a ' Attendant of Mysteries '..." Klein gradually formed an idea, planning to conduct a preliminary exploration of the Ancient City of North after successfully resurrecting and initially getting rid of Amon.
After digesting the knowledge he had just gained, Klein summoned a gold-cased pocket watch from the pile of junk, turned it on, and glanced at it to determine the current time.
Before destroying the " Blood Emperor " ruins, he sacrificed many items used in battles onto the Gray Fog to prevent them from being damaged.
Even so, after the previous battles and his final suicide, he still suffered considerable losses, all of them of exceptionally high value. Just thinking about it made him almost lose control.
" The Groselle's Travels, the ' Death Knell ' revolver, the ' Creeping Hunger ', the ' Fate Siphon ' charm, the ' Solar Flare ' charm, the ' Spirit Control Bullet ', the Marionette Qonas and his equipment, the Marionette Enuni and his two rings, the Adventurer Harmonica... I can't think of any more. Thankfully, I threw the Azik Copper Whistle into the Gray Fog beforehand. Thankfully, I can still summon the Historical Void images of these items; they're just accompanying me in a different form... Uh, the Groselle's Travels might not be able to..." Klein's brow twitched slightly, and his mood unconsciously became heavy.
He sighed and mourned these things deeply, especially that magical item that had been with him for so long:
" The Creeping Hunger."
After a long silence, Klein forced his attention back to the present, waiting to convene the Tarot Club while casually thinking about the Ancient The Sun God, Chernobyl, and other such things.
Suddenly, he frowned slightly:
"Since this is my hometown, and there have never been any 'time travelers,' but only ancient humans thrown in by the ' Sefirah Castle,' do places like the ' Chaos Sea ' also have similar phenomena? Was Chernobyl transformed into a refuge?"
"According to Amon's account and the visions I saw through Divination, the Ancient The Sun God did indeed awaken in Chernobyl. So, was he a 'transmigrator' dropped from the ' Sefirah Castle,' or a survivor from within the vault?"
"If it's the latter, who is the person inside the third 'cocoon' that has broken open here...?"
Thinking of this, Klein was startled, his pupils dilating slightly:
He already had some guesses about the origins of the Elf race, and believed they were unrelated to the " Sefirah Castle ".
Thus, he has not yet found the correct correspondence between the true identity of the third, or rather the first, "time traveler".
This "time traveler" seems to have left no trace in history!
Without hesitation, Klein's consciousness sank into the gray-white mist, and with the help of the " Sefirah Castle," he arrived directly in a certain period of history quite far in the past.
It was composed of many fragments of light, the clearest of which was Zhou Mingrui, suspended above the Door of Light and wrapped in a transparent "cocoon".
Beside Zhou Mingrui, because Klein already knew Roselle well enough, the corresponding Fog of History was instantly cleared up, and he directly saw a young man who was also hanging inside the "cocoon" with his eyes closed.
Without needing verification, Klein, through a sense of familiarity and Spirituality intuition, confirmed that this was Huang Tao, the predecessor of Roselle Gustav.
Ignoring the Emperor's true appearance, Klein turned his gaze to the other side.
There, a transparent "cocoon" swayed gently, with a figure inside appearing and disappearing indistinctly.
Since Klein had already seen the other "Hangers," illuminating many fragments of light in this Fog of History, they intertwined and inspired each other, making this unclear piece barely visible.
The figure inside was clearly a woman.
A woman... Klein's heart skipped a beat, realizing that he had overlooked a direction when analyzing "time travelers".
"Time travelers" have subjective consciousness and can completely restrain themselves from leaving traces of being ahead of their time, but there is one thing they cannot avoid.
It is clear that " Sefirah Castle " is related to the three paths of " Seer," " Apprentice," and " Marauder," and the "transmigrator" will inevitably come into contact with one of these three paths soon after being born.
Klein not only gets involved in the case brought about by the Antigonus Family Notebook, but also soon has the opportunity to choose the " Seer's " Potion;
Roselle was active in Intis, where Secret Order existed, and he had known Zaratul for a very long time.
Following this logic, the Ancient The Sun God, who himself possessed the authority of a " Marauder," is indeed a reasonable suspect.
Klein immediately conjured up paper and pen again and began to list the relevant names he knew, such as certain people from the Antigonus Family, the Zaratul Family, and the Abraham Family in the Fourth Age, and the Angel King around the Ancient The Sun God.
Before long, Klein's gaze settled on a few names.
The one at the very front is the ancient god Flegrea, who clearly possesses the authority of a " Seer," followed by his subordinate gods:
Salinger, the " God of the Undead," and Amanises, the " Goddess of Misfortune."
The latter is now also known as " Evernight Goddess ".
