As he obtained the " Staff of the Stars," Klein took a gold coin out of thin air with his other hand, which bounced up with a clang.
As the gold coins tumbled around, the revelation he had received from the " Divination " naturally came to mind:
It was an extremely deep ravine, at the bottom of which stood a thick, wide building, constructed of layers of gray and white concrete.
Every detail perfectly replicates what Klein saw in Chernobyl, but the source is not the Spirit World, but Klein's own subconscious.
He used the technique of " Dream Divination " to recreate the images he had seen in his mind.
As soon as the scene was drawn, the gems embedded in the " Staff of the Stars " emitted a faint glow, and the Historical Void of Klein vanished instantly, then reappeared above the gray-white building.
In the blink of an eye, Klein returned to Chernobyl from the easternmost part of the Forsaken Land of the Gods!
This is one of the main abilities of the " Staff of the Stars ": if the corresponding scene that appears in the wielder's mind truly exists, then the " Staff of the Stars " allows him to overcome all obstacles and, no matter how far the distance, directly arrive at the destination.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the drawn image must be absolutely accurate, with no difference visible to the naked eye from the original.
Klein chose the deep ravine where Chernobyl was located, rather than the wasteland shrouded in gray-yellow mist, because he knew that after the Giant King, " God of Honor " Badheil, was freed from the curse and completely passed away, that place would definitely undergo significant changes. The only place that would remain unaffected would be the mysterious Chernobyl, which was valued by the Ancient The Sun God and the father and son of Amon.
This doesn't mean that the deep ravines and gray buildings will remain unchanged to the naked eye. Klein was actually prepared for the " Teleportation " to fail and the destination to be unknown. After all, the person was fake, and the items in his hands were fake, so it wouldn't be a big deal if he lost them.
In mid-air, before Klein, who was holding the " Staff of the Stars," could even assess his surroundings, he suddenly felt a sudden drop and began to fall downwards.
Without the " Creeping Hunger " and without transforming into a bird-like creature, he currently lacks the ability to fly.
Therefore, despite the bizarre and terrifying nature of Demigod who follow the " Seer," they also possess ordinary human qualities.
In the blink of an eye, an extraordinary ability manifested in Klein's mind.
The " Staff of the Stars " then lit up with different colored lights, causing gusts of violent wind to rise around it.
The wind swirled around Klein, causing his black trench coat to billow and his body to slowly descend.
During this process, Klein flicked his right hand, causing the Historical Void projection of the " Staff of the Stars " to return to its proper position, so as to avoid any accidents caused by his own instinctive imagination of certain scenes.
Immediately afterwards, he pressed his left hand against the half-height silk hat on his head, and just as the lightning in the sky had passed, he pulled a lantern out of thin air.
In the Yellow Light of the lantern, Klein's feet, clad in unbuttoned leather shoes, landed firmly on the ground at the bottom of the deep ravine, the endless darkness around him seeming to conceal one Monster after another.
Before him lay Chernobyl, constructed layer upon layer of "grayish-white" concrete.
With the combined effects of high-altitude lightning and the lantern in his hand, Klein quickly discovered a situation:
This heavy, wide, gray-white building has no doors!
Hmm, every place is sealed off... I remember the Ancient The Sun God emerged from a phantom crack in the gray wall... Klein thoughtfully found the location in his memory and began to chant the name of " The Fool ".
At the easternmost edge of the Forsaken Land of the Gods, near the solidified fog close to Moon City, Klein's true form, hidden in the Historical Void, immediately entered the Sefirah Castle and, with the help of the prayer lights, scanned the situation in Chernobyl using " Spirit Vision."
There was not a single Amon in that deep ravine and the desolate wasteland shrouded in lingering gray-yellow mist.
As for Chernobyl itself, even with the " Spirit Vision " provided by the " Sefirah Castle," Klein couldn't clearly see what was inside:
Beneath layer upon layer of "grayish-white" lies an absolute void, devoid of any color.
Indeed, it's extraordinary... No wonder it's the place where the Ancient The Sun God and the Creator City of Silver emerged... Klein sighed inwardly, then quickly left " Sefirah Castle " and returned to the historical fragments from before the First Era.
Outside Chernobyl, Klein regained consciousness and reached into thin air to retrieve " Lemano's Travel Notes."
He quickly flipped to a page, ready to use the " Apprentice's" " Door Opening " technique.
Such a move was actually a bit reckless for Klein, but considering that it was just an image captured in Historical Void, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
The Beyonder of the " Seer " pathway indeed possess both caution and recklessness; they are cautious when preparing, and reckless after preparation, exhibiting a duality of caution and recklessness... Klein, in self-deprecation, silently passed through the obstacles and entered Chernobyl.
After Door Opening again and again, he finally left the "grayish-white" concrete site and saw a half-open, heavy iron gate in front of him.
The iron gate wasn't very tall, only about two and a half meters, clearly intended for human use.
In front of it were two black marks and two guns that looked more futuristic than any weapon of the present day.
These two guns looked somewhat similar to those Klein had seen in magazines in his past life, but he wasn't an enthusiast of this kind and couldn't be sure.
Klein did not pick them up or attempt to study them, because his Spirituality intuition told him that the two gun-like weapons were completely Corrosion and that any touch would cause them to instantly disintegrate and turn into foam.
After glancing at it twice, Klein dismissed " Lemano's Travel Notes," picked up his lantern, and walked between the two dark marks to the back of the iron gate.
There is a wide corridor with rooms of varying sizes on both sides. Some of the tables, chairs, and utensils inside are overturned, some are still, and some are missing half of their contents. There are black marks all over the walls and floors.
"It looks like a research institute..." Klein made a preliminary judgment based on the remaining items and the overall layout.
Without him needing to search specifically, he quickly found a room with collapsed Robot, where several yellowish sheets of paper were laid out on a table.
This looks like something someone collected and then casually left there.
The Ancient The Sun God, or Amon? Klein hesitated for two seconds before finally stepping into the room.
The dim light of the kerosene lamp dispelled the darkness inside, and he picked up the few pages of paper and quickly browsed through them.
Ten seconds later, Klein put down the paper, his lips twitching slightly.
He didn't recognize almost a single word on those pages!
In my past life, I could barely pass English, let alone other languages? Klein suddenly understood how the other Beyonder in this world felt when they read Roselle's Diary.
He slowly exhaled, reached his hand into the air, and took out an item.
This was a translator that Zhou Mingrui had bought specifically when he saved up some money to Travel abroad. It was in the computer bag next to him during the Luck Enhancement Ritual.
For Klein, the biggest advantage of this translator right now is its ability to translate offline—as long as it doesn't exceed the built-in dictionary.
After some Manipulation, he finally understood what was written on those pages:
"... Study on the re-emergence of oil in dried-up oil fields... Why build a research institute for something that others wouldn't even think of?"
"... My God Almighty, what have they found deep in the oil field...?"
"... These are truly amazing materials..."
"... What on earth happened? The doctor just turned into a pool of black oil right in front of me!"
"... More and more people are being turned into oil, and the research institute is under lockdown... No one can leave, and no one can leave..."
"... They've all gone mad, everyone's gone mad. We're the only ones left who's still normal, but our food is almost gone..."
"... I think I'm hallucinating. It's like a voice coming from underground, calling me, it's calling me!"
These simple and straightforward passages sent a chill down Klein's spine, giving him the feeling that he too was gradually heading towards madness and death.
At the same time, a thought naturally arose in his mind:
Pollution originating from underground.
Was it all caused by the discovery of strange geological materials during research on a dried-up oil field, leading to unnecessary and in-depth experiments? And then, the world was destroyed? But if it was a disaster caused by such a chance event, there's no reason why I, Emperor Roselle, and others would have received the items that would help us "travel" beforehand... Perhaps, there's a coincidence within inevitability, and inevitability hidden within coincidence? The underground pollution has actually been affecting the human world all along, just not very obviously, only intermittently bringing some mysterious events. When this research progressed, "He" fully awakened? Klein subconsciously swallowed.
He carried the lantern, left the room, and headed deeper into the research institute, keeping a close eye on his surroundings for anything else of interest.
After walking for several dozen seconds, his vision suddenly became much darker.
The dim yellow light of the lantern was mostly swallowed up by the area in front of it!
Klein looked closely and discovered that there was a "cliff" just two steps away.
That part of the research institute collapsed underground, into a deep, dark void with no end in sight.
Faintly, Klein seemed to hear a silent cry, coming from the depths of the earth, resounding directly in his mind.
Klein had felt this way before, it came from the bronze gate in the Hall of Honesty.
He frowned slightly, took several steps back, and was ready to release the Historical Void image at any moment.
Just then, a withered hand, reduced to skin and bone, emerged from the darkness and grasped the edge of the "cliff".
Then, a figure leaped out and landed in front of Klein.
He wore a pointed soft hat, a classic black robe, and a monocle perched on his right eye socket; he was none other than " Angel of Time," Amon.
But this Amon is not in a normal state; he looks like a skeleton covered by a membrane.
Klein subconsciously took a few steps back, watching as Amon's flesh and blood rapidly filled up before him.
He adjusted his monocle and said with a smile:
There are visitors!
"Who are you?"
