When Klein saw the picture clearly through the eyes of the " Wraith " Senor, his heart suddenly raced, pounding so hard that he could hear it himself.
As a " Seer " skilled at interpreting revelations and symbols, he felt the blood rushing wildly to his head, making his head throb and dizzy, seemingly preventing him from thinking further.
Even so, a phantom voice, his own, echoed in his mind, filled with terror:
That dismembered Devouring figure must represent the Ancient The Sun God, the Lord Who Created Everything worshipped by City of Silver, the Omniscient and Omnipotent God!
And the three eerie figures surrounding them... I... I've seen them before!
Within the underground ruins of Backlund, in a place where terrifying Evil Spirit are sealed!
They exist in the form of statues, unlike the malevolent figures in this painting, and represent, respectively:
" Eternal Blazing Sun ", " Lord of Storms ", " God of Knowledge and Wisdom "!
Suddenly, Klein remembered a term he had once acquired, a term he had obtained by facing the " Eternal Blazing Sun ":
" Angel of Pure White!"
This... no way... could it be that " Eternal Blazing Sun " was once Angel serving the Ancient The Sun God? Little " The Sun " mentioned before that he overheard a clergyman of the Creator muttering things in a tone of confession and prophecy in Afternoon Town, including the line: "The kings frequently conspire in the palace belonging to Twilight..." " Eternal Blazing Sun," originally called " Angel of Pure White," was also the Angel King, and he too betrayed the Creator?
Meanwhile, the " Lord of Storms," the " God of Knowledge and Wisdom," and that dark infant representing an unknown entity, seized the greatest benefit, devouring the corpse of the Creator City of Silver... The scriptures of various churches record that these three most ancient deities were formed from the spirit of the Primordial Creator... From a certain perspective, this seems to be an Psychological Suggestion to a dark history?
If my guess is correct, then the " Lord of Storms " and the " God of Knowledge and Wisdom " should also be the Creator worshipped by City of Silver, the Angel King beside the Ancient The Sun God, perhaps they should be called " Angel of Wind " and " Angel of Wisdom "...
This completes the list of eight Angel King: Dark Angel, Angel of Pure White, Angel of Wind, Angel of Wisdom, Angel of Imagination Angel of Time, Angel of Fate, and Red Angel... Judging from the words the little " The Sun " heard and the subsequent fates of these Angel King, it seems that, apart from Amon and Adam, the two Son of God, the other Angel King betrayed their Creator... This Ancient The Sun God's fate was rather tragic... However, this painting may not be genuine; it could be a slander, so it remains to be seen...
I wonder which dark baby sitting in the belly of the Ancient The Sun God represents... It seems very likely to be the " True Creator "... Klein thought of many things in an instant, and the deeper he thought about it, the more he felt the urge to turn around and leave, pretending that he had never seen that picture before.
At this moment, the overwhelming fear within him even gave him the illusion that the " Eternal Blazing Sun," the " Lord of Storms," and the " God of Knowledge and Wisdom " were casting their gazes down from the Astral World and watching him.
Who left this painting? Who could know so many Concealment and whose stance is clearly on the side of the Ancient The Sun God? The other Angel and Saint who have always followed and believed in this Creator of the City of Silver? Cold sweat broke out on Klein's back, and his body trembled slightly.
Although Alger's observational skills were not as good as Miss Justice's, he was still an experienced Beyonder. In this environment that required high vigilance and caution, it was not difficult for him to notice that Gehrman Sparrow was acting strangely.
"What's wrong?" he asked in a low voice.
Klein was suddenly startled awake. While gesturing for the " Wraith " Senor to look away, he pointed to the circular area where the sarcophagus wasn't placed and said:
You'll understand at a glance.
The picture could make even Gehrman tremble. Would I lose control if I saw it? He didn't stop me but suggested I look at it, so it shouldn't be a big problem. However, it's possible that he has already lost his mind and is just pretending to be a normal person... Several thoughts flashed through Alger's mind in an instant. In the end, he still picked up the lantern and steadily stepped forward towards the central area.
After seven or eight steps, he could see the dark-toned painting clearly.
In just three or four seconds, Alger's hands, which were gripping the short blade and carrying the lantern, began to tremble uncontrollably, as if he had contracted some kind of brain disease.
He had once seen human statues of six true gods at the Tarot Club, at the place of "The World" Gehrman. He could naturally recognize that the three figures gnawing on arms, tearing at hearts, and sucking out brains were " Lord of Storms ", " Eternal Blazing Sun " and " God of Knowledge and Wisdom "!
Although he had been coerced by Qilangos into doing things disloyal to the church, although he had joined the Tarot Club and drifted further and further away from the " Abyss of Storm," believing in Mr. " The Fool " and seeking greater power and influence, although he had repeatedly betrayed church intelligence and been passive in certain matters, he still considered himself a believer of the " Lord of Storms," only not devout enough or fanatical enough. But at this moment, he genuinely felt that he had committed a grave sin of blasphemy and almost gouged out his own eyes in fear.
"If I don't commit suicide directly, it means I've truly become a false believer..." Alger didn't dare look any longer, turned around to look at Gehrman Sparrow, and asked in a trembling voice:
"Are those three all Angel King?"
"I can't give you a definite answer. I can only tell you that ' Eternal Blazing Sun ' and ' Angel of Pure White ' are closely related," Klein replied rather vaguely.
Sure enough... Alger suddenly realized that it was highly likely that the " Lord of Storms," the " Eternal Blazing Sun," and the " God of Knowledge and Wisdom " were once the Angel King.
As for the fact that Gehrman Sparrow couldn't confirm this, he wasn't surprised or taken aback, after all, the other party was just Blessed, not "Mr. The Fool ".
Just as Alger was about to speak, he suddenly heard a sharp sizzling sound.
It's like someone inside a sarcophagus, scratching at the lid with their fingernails!
No, it's not just "seems," it's exactly like that!
Sizzle! Zzz! Zzz!
Three stone coffins on the left and right sides emitted a sharp, piercing scraping sound. Then, the heavy, grayish-white coffin lids were either lifted or shattered, and three Distortion figures stood up.
One of them was draped in an ancient white robe that had turned almost gray, its face pitted and decayed, and its neck, forehead, and the back of its hands were covered with deep, dark eyes. The one beside it had huge hands and thick fingers, as if carved from wood, covered with a layer of yellowish-green pus, and emanating a mist of the same color that could Corrosion the stone coffin.
The other man was wearing a tattered brown jacket and a tricorn hat topped with a white skull. In many places, his skin had completely rotted away, exposing his bones.
Beneath its clothes, inside its trousers, emerged one after another slippery, thick tentacles inlaid with fish scales, naturally exuding an aura of majesty, wildness, savagery, and terror. This even gave Klein the feeling of facing a High-Sequence " Storm " pathway, yet its own state seemed not to reach that level.
The three deceased who crawled out of the sarcophagus all turned their gazes toward the direction where Gehrman Sparrow and Alger were. One was surrounded by a bright silver light with crackling electricity, another reflected the figures of the two in countless eyes, and the third caused yellow-green mist to spread outwards, creating brown vines.
At the same time, hurried and heavy footsteps approached, as if a Six-Winged Gargoyle was rushing towards them.
Seeing this, Klein remained calm. He reached into his pocket with his left hand, which was holding the " Lemano's Travel Notes," and broke through the Wall of Spirituality, using only two fingers to pick out the Azik Copper Whistle.
Immediately afterwards, he flicked his wrist and threw the bronze whistle to the other side of the hall. As expected, he saw three terrifyingly powerful mutated dead, like well-trained hunting dogs, turn around and rush over at the same time.
Upon seeing this, Alger's gaze sharpened for a moment, then he made a decision, discarded the lantern, and sprinted towards the door.
His experience told him that Gehrman Sparrow could handle the three terrifying dead at the same time, and that his job was to stop the Six-Winged Gargoyle and prevent it from interfering with the mad adventurer's battle.
Bang!
As Alger approached the door, he saw the tall double stone door shattered into pieces, and a Six-Winged Gargoyle carrying a seven- or eight-meter-long stone halberd crashed straight in.
He immediately took a breath, his eyes burning with rage, his muscles bulging, and with the help of the gale, he charged forward, swinging a short blade crackling with silver lightning.
Bang!
He dodged the heavy stone halberd that crashed down, and simultaneously struck the Six-Winged Gargoyle in the lower abdomen with his fist and short blade.
In an instant, lightning flashed and stone chips flew everywhere. Alger was sent flying backward, and the momentum of the Six-Winged Gargoyle's charge was forcibly interrupted.
*Thud! Alger crashed heavily to the ground, but thanks to the "air cushion" he created in time, he did not suffer serious injury.
At this moment, the three deceased had gathered together and were fighting over the Azik Copper Whistle.
Klein looked at them, calmly opening " Lemano's Travel Notes," letting the top side rest on the yellowed paper with its intricate patterns and symbols.
This is Demigod- level ability that was just Record not long ago, " Lightning Storm "!
Then, Klein extended a finger from the hand holding the " Death Knell " revolver and easily slid it across the page of the "notebook".
At the same time, he looked at the three mutated dead who had snatched the Azik Copper Whistle and greeted them in a low voice.
"Bye-Bye."
Amidst the crackling sounds, streaks of silver lightning appeared out of thin air, intertwining and transforming into Storm that enveloped the area where Azik Copper Whistle was located, as well as the three deceased who had undergone mutations.
The entire burial chamber was instantly illuminated as if it were daytime, almost blinding Alger, who trembled instinctively from the violent and terrifying aura.
With the help of the wind, Storm took shape in his eyes, and he sprang up, charging once again at the Six-Winged Gargoyle that was trying to attack Gehrman Sparrow.
