Amon and that strange Door of Light were " Grafting " together.
His face immediately contorted in an undeniable Distortion, and the darkness in his eyes intensified noticeably.
At the same time, more slippery tentacles sprang out from beneath His classic black robe, his frenzied state palpable.
Just as Klein was about to sever Amon's connection with " Sefirah Castle " to keep Him at this level of madness, Amon's lips curled up.
This is as if to say:
"Congratulations, you've fallen into a trap."
His face was immediately covered with a semi-transparent mask that was similar to the Uniqueness " The Fool," but even more illusory.
Klein tensed up, and without thinking, immediately prepared to use the power of " Fooling " again, regardless of the consequences.
Before he could react, his thoughts suddenly stalled, and he found himself in a dazed state, unsure of what to do.
" Fooling "!
Amon managed to break free from Klein's interference by briefly " Reorganization " himself with " Sefirah Castle " and mobilize the power of the " The Fool's " domain.
Such behavior goes far beyond instinct; it's more like a meticulously designed trap.
Amon doesn't seem crazy enough!
This true god, who possessed both the " Error " and the "gate" pathways, immediately severed his " Grafting " with the " Sefirah Castle," causing the strange Door of Light, stained with a hint of bluish-black, to quickly fade and disappear, lest it be further contaminated.
Having dealt with this potential hazard, Amon raised his hands, thumbs to thumbs and index fingers to index fingers, forming an oval.
Within the ellipse, starlight illuminated, perfectly encompassing Klein's figure.
Immediately afterwards, Amon's hands suddenly parted to the sides, as if tearing something apart, making it seem rather heavy.
With a ripping sound like paper tearing, the area where Klein's body was located seemed to have turned into glass, countless cracks appearing under the intense impact, breaking apart inch by inch.
This is a kind of spatial degradation and destruction, Klein's body is powerless to withstand. As the surrounding void collapses and shatters, he can only turn into countless pieces of paper flying around, and these pieces of paper are always swallowed up by the darkness in an instant.
By the time the collapse of space stopped, Klein's paper figures had been almost completely destroyed.
Of course, he also relied on his own " The Fool " status and characteristics to forcibly get rid of the effect of " Blind Stupidity ".
At this moment, Amon had split into countless figures. Some were pure clones, some were symbolic copies, and some were afterimages left behind after constantly " Blink " and making movements.
At this moment, the sky above Klein's head and the surrounding wilderness were filled with Amon, who, wearing pointed soft hats and monocles, were so numerous that they blocked every gap.
Some of these Amon transformed into mottled, ancient, dark blue-green wall clocks; others became pure starlight, as if trying to build a cage; some stretched out their palms, engaging in different levels of " Stealing "; some had their monocles glowing, using various things they had once stolen; and some simulated all sorts of abilities, either restricting, interfering with, or attacking.
--In the " Marauder " path, " Stealing " is a core skill and one of the main symbols. Unlike the " Seer's " Manipulation of " Spirit Body Threads," it not only increases in effectiveness and efficiency as the Sequence advances, but also gains conceptual depth.
From Sequence 9 to Sequence 7, what is " Stealing " is objects; at Sequence 6, what is " Stealing " is extraordinary abilities; after advancing to Sequence 5, what is " Stealing " is thoughts and ideas; by Sequence 4 and Sequence 3, what is " Stealing " is life, including Parasitism Stealing at the physical level; and with Sequence 2, the scope of " Stealing " can expand to Fate, identity, self-awareness, and Beyonder Characteristic; as for Sequence 1, even time, anchors, and authority can be " Stealing " briefly.
Therefore, when " Error " confront the true God, they will also resort to " Stealing," which has risen to the level of authority.
At the sound of the clock striking, each of the ancient wall clocks paused for a moment.
This caused the surrounding environment to freeze, making the wilderness, which had long been shattered by the impact of the "star," extremely quiet, even freezing the destruction.
In that instant, Klein seemed to have lost his body, leaving only a semi-transparent dark cloak and an eerie, cold mask.
Beneath the cloak and mask, darkness was thick, and nothing could be seen except for slippery, sinister tentacles extending out.
In this state, Klein seemed to have broken free from the constraints of time, swaying like a fish in a frozen environment, slipping through various gaps, both real and conceptual, to escape the encirclement of Amon and his ilk.
He once again used the power of " Fooling ".
This time, he " Fooling " time.
The ancient wall clocks vanished one by one, and time resumed its flow on the almost completely collapsed wasteland. The Amon ceased their attempts and suddenly coalesced into one, " Blink " behind Klein, giving him no chance to catch his breath.
He extended his left palm, and as he retracted his arm, he clenched his five fingers.
The space around Klein was suddenly shrouded in shadow, becoming like layers of thin gauze.
These "veils" Distortion and recombine, seemingly forming a sturdy enough cage to trap Klein inside.
Above the cage, an illusory door appears, moving swiftly and refusing to settle.
However, Klein's figure suddenly appeared outside the cage, as if he had never been sealed away by Amon's authority over the "door".
He " Fooling " history, creating a separation between himself in the previous second and the next.
Thus, what was Imprisonment in the cage became his Historical Projection.
This represents the deepening of the abilities of " Scholar of Yore " under the " Fooling " of authority.
Because his advancement is based on " Fooling " history, Klein, the " The Fool," is more capable in similar areas than he is at " Fooling " time or " Fooling " Fate.
As soon as he escaped the spatial cage, Klein immediately tried to use " Realm of Mysteries " again to create a new " The Fool's" divine kingdom in order to buy time and find an opportunity to stabilize his mental state. He had just used the " Fooling " authority multiple times in a row, and the fragile balance in his body was on the verge of collapse. If he did not stabilize his mental state as soon as possible, the will of the " Celestial Worthy " would awaken even further.
This is also a serious problem.
Just then, a huge monocle made of crystal appeared before his eyes.
On the monocle, shimmering light surged forth in waves, instantly engulfing him.
Klein's mental state suddenly stabilized, but at the cost of losing different emotions and desires. He didn't even want to resist; he just wanted to stand there quietly and wait for destruction to come.
It's like a normal person being injected with a large dose of sedative.
At the same time, a phantom book emerged from the layers of shimmering light.
The book was open, revealing a passage:
" Klein Moretti was tormented by the mental corruption of the ' Lord of Mysteries,' constantly suffering and exhausted. After a fierce battle, affected on a psychological level, he finally reached his limit and decided to give up and cease his resistance."
Behind that enormous, crystal-plated monocle, Amon, wearing a pointed soft hat and a classic black robe, was quickly sketched out, like a mountain peak.
He looked at Klein, who had given up resistance, his dark eyes lightening, and a slight smile playing on his lips:
"How does it feel to have stolen it?"
Klein looked up at this " Error " man, struggled to open his mouth, and spoke weakly:
"You've been Deceit from the very beginning?"
Amon raised his hands, a smile on his face, and said:
"It's a pity you realized it too late."
He used his thumbs to touch his thumbs and his index fingers to touch his index fingers to draw an oval.
Within the ellipse, starlight illuminated, revealing Klein's figure.
Immediately afterwards, Amon separated his hands heavily, tearing apart the void upon which Klein and the surrounding environment depended for survival.
The void was like glass, cracking and shattering piece by piece, collapsing like a skyscraper being destroyed.
However, all the collapse and destruction bypassed Klein's body and did not directly affect him.
He was like a small fishing boat sailing steadily in a storm, so out of place, so out of place, as if he didn't belong here.
Amon raised his hand to adjust the monocle clipped to his right eye socket, and the smile on his face faded slightly.
On Klein's translucent cloak, countless bumps kept appearing and disappearing.
He looked at the mountain-like Amon, and his eyes seemed to darken slightly:
"From the moment you entered ' Sefirah Castle ' and uttered your first word, you began your Deceit."
At that time, Amon said that He risked releasing the suppression of the will of the " Lord of Mysteries " within Him in exchange for the identity of the master of the " Sefirah Castle ".
At this moment, Amon did not seize the opportunity to continue attacking Klein. He Levitation in mid-air, looking down at this " The Fool ".
Klein made no other attempt, his tone strangely calm, as if he were brewing something:
"If we release the suppression of the ' Lord of Mysteries ' will, we can enter the ' Sefirah Castle ' at the cost of half-madness. Antigonus did it back then, and even earlier, ' Demonic Wolf of Destruction ' Flegrea did it. You and Mr. 'Door' had countless opportunities before."
"Obviously, simply reviving the ' Lord of Mysteries ' to a certain extent, with his half-madness combined with ' Error,' is not enough to infiltrate the ' Sefirah Castle.' You can't find a 'bug' to exploit in this matter unless you directly let Him replace you."
"It wasn't until you had the authority to enter any 'door' that you saw hope: by creating a backdoor and exploiting a 'bug,' you could make the ' Sefirah Castle ' treat you as the ' Lord of Mysteries ' and grant you access."
"Of course, this would require the ' Lord of Mysteries ' to be revived to a dangerous level. Without this hidden identity, you wouldn't be able to Deceit the ' Sefirah Castle ' out of thin air."
"After acknowledging the Uniqueness of the 'Gate,' you didn't immediately infiltrate the ' Sefirah Castle ' to deal with me, who was weaker at the time, because at that time, you, who had just been promoted, were completely unable to withstand the further awakening of the ' Lord of Mysteries ' will."
"I think you should have found a relatively safer way. If I hadn't advanced to ' The Fool ' so quickly, you would have been able to enter ' Sefirah Castle ' in the best condition and solve everything in a while. But now, you have to bring this plan forward, which means you must have some very serious problems."
"By deliberately bringing up the price of being half-mad, you are, on the one hand, trying to induce me to think about countermeasures in this direction and to lay a fatal trap in a key place, and on the other hand, diverting attention and covering up other problems."
You're not half-mad at all.
Amon listened quietly as Klein finished speaking, unusually without interrupting or attempting to attack. Only after Klein finished did Amon speak with a slightly strange expression:
"You're crazy."
