Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1075: The Prepared Ancient Scholar

Angel and Klein looked at each other, speechless for a moment as they watched Amon's clone jump into the deep pit connected to the Chaos Sea.

They imagined Amon raising his hands in surrender, or simply dying in the battle, or at most taking the opportunity of the conversation to escape from Chernobyl and find a way to convey their whereabouts to the original body.

But the fact that a living Amon committed suicide right in front of them was beyond their imagination.

After a long while, Angel looked at Klein and said:
"He just said 'goodbye'."

“I can still tell that…” The former cyberpolitician nodded, “If He understands this language, then the manuscripts we just saw were probably collected by Him before we arrived.”

"Is this another hint? Is he trying to tell us that he knows his father and our true origins?"

Angel muttered as he tentatively approached the pit and took a look inside. He found that his sight still could not penetrate this illusory, deep space, and that inexplicable attraction became more and more obvious. He could only shake his head at Klein.

A moment later, Angel's mirror double and Klein's historical projection dissipated in their own ways, and the two lanterns returned to the history they originally existed in. The research institute, where there was no light source, became dark again.

Da da.

Da da.

The "footsteps" that attracted the two people just now sounded again, and a figure climbed out from the edge of the cliff-like pit again and stood on a relatively flat position.

A flash of light passed by, and Amon, who had just returned from the pit, took out his monocle from his pocket, placed it in the palm of his hand, and watched it turn into a ray of bright light, illuminating the surroundings.

"Heh, I was originally thinking of using the information from the Second Age to make him completely digest the ancient scholar's potion, and at the same time reveal the information about the 'Outer Gods', so as to steal his fate when he is being watched... I didn't expect him to be so cautious, and there is always someone around him..."

He muttered to himself, stretched out his hand and released the ray of light, watching it transform into a thick "worm of time" in the air, and then disappear into the void.

The remaining extraordinary characteristics, as well as the pollution from the "Chaos Sea", were all left in the body that was still standing there.

"She actually knows how we vote. Trier of the Fourth Epoch? The 'Ghost Empire'? Or..."

His whispers gradually faded away as his body was covered by a black shadow and fell into the deep pit again.

----

In the wasteland outside Chernobyl, Angel and Klein's bodies met together, away from these buildings whose history was even older than the First Era.

After Bradl the Glorian fell into eternal sleep, his corpse, which had lost its extraordinary properties, quickly weathered, and the gray-yellow curse fog gradually dissipated. From the light brought by the occasional lightning in the sky, the angular, gray-white "sarcophagi" could already be seen clearly from afar.

Angel didn't ask until the building sank into the horizon and could no longer be seen with the naked eye:
"How much of what Amon said is true?"

She still suspected that this "blasphemer" and god of mischief was deceiving them.

Klein held the lantern in one hand and touched his hat with the other. He said carefully:

"Most of them should be. The part about the Dark Angel Sasriel and what I saw in the City of Silver, as well as the information I asked Arrodes, can be mutually verified. The Giant King's Court is likely the only entrance and exit to the God-Forsaken Land. Otherwise, the believers of the True Creator would not need to pass through the ruins of the God War to enter here, and the survivors of the Cataclysm would not have been unable to find a way out for thousands of years.

"The only possible problem is his intention. He has been trying to get me to go to the Giant King's Court to meet the Dark Angel. It's too open and aboveboard to be a trap... Could it be that the Seven Gods, him and his brothers, and even the evil gods such as the True Creator, want me to see what the negative personality of this Ancient Sun God is like now?
"Why does it have to be me?"

He had a guess in his mind that the danger in the "Giant King's Court" and the state of the Dark Angel might be related to the power of "Source".

When the ancient sun god left the source "Chaos Sea", would his split negative personality be contaminated, making it difficult for the gods to take risks and unwilling to take contact?

Only my "Source Castle" can resist that power, even though I haven't become an angel yet and can't fully master the power of this source... Oh, and there is Angel's "City of Disaster". Adam started to contact her a long time ago. Is it just for this day?
His mind was a little confused, and he didn't know how to discuss it with the person next to him. After a moment, he shook his head and changed the subject:
"That 'Ancient Sun God' who originally lived in the same era as us, is he the researcher Grisha who left the notes?"

"It should be him, otherwise Amon wouldn't have deliberately found Grisha's notes and put them together."

Angel said, shaking his head and sighing. Whether it was Emperor Roselle or the ancient sun god Grisha who established the current status of mankind in the dark and barbaric Second Era, they had all become figures in history and it was impossible to meet them.

Otherwise, these "time travelers" who have been stranded in different eras would definitely have a lot of topics to talk about.

For example, how did He raise two children, Amon and Adam, with such bad personalities...

The two chatted intermittently and soon returned to the "camping" location where they had spent the night. Angel was going to say goodbye to Klein here, and return to Sona Island deep in the Violent Sea through the altar of the abandoned giant village. Then, he would store the "Sword of Glory", a Level 0 Sealed Object, in the "City of Dreams" and suppress its negative effects through the Beyonder characteristics of Sequence 1.

Klein had to continue heading east. Now that he had confirmed the location of Chernobyl, he would most likely enter the "Western Continent" if he continued forward. The last few possible locations where the Dark Wolf might appear were also in that direction.

As for the Giant King's Court, which Amon wanted the two of them to visit, it was naturally the last priority.

After kissing Angel goodbye in the deserted wilderness and watching her shadow shatter like a broken mirror, Klein walked eastward with a lantern in a gloomy mood. His back looked a little lonely in the occasional lightning.

But not long after, several of his converted puppets followed closely, and his own figure blurred in an instant and turned into an image in the historical pores. His real body hid in the fog of history, quietly came to the gray fog space, and sat on the high-back chair of "The Fool".

Looking left and right, Klein's mind flashed, and the entire towering palace in the gray fog collapsed in an instant. The ruins merged into the fog. Reinforced concrete, glass, plastic and other materials poured out of the gray fog and quickly built an ordinary room next to him.

That was his room, that belonged to "Zhou Mingrui".

Wearing a T-shirt and casual pants, he sat on the ergonomic chair that appeared, leaned back, and completely integrated into the long-lost modern life.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

It was not until now that he knew why he could mobilize power above the gray fog, transform the environment, and create everything in his mind.

That was the power of a "Miracle Master", a gift from "Source Castle" in advance, and the same power that had brought him back to life.

And now, he can not only mobilize the power of the "Miracle Worker", but also gain a certain amount of power in the adjacent path symbolized by this source, of course, only within the gray fog.

Because just now, he had completely digested the potion of the "Ancient Scholar" and had taken a step further in mastering this source.

"Huh, pressure brings motivation..."

He muttered silently and stood up suddenly from the chair. His T-shirt turned back into a windbreaker, vest and shirt. The familiar yet unfamiliar bedroom beside him was shrouded in gray fog again. Stone pillars and arches rose from the ground, and twenty-two high-backed chairs were erected next to the long bronze table.

----

"The scarlet and hidden shadow, the queen who roams the five seas, the essence of the disaster in the mirror...

"I pray for your attention, I pray for your hearing..."

After setting up the spiritual wall in her own bedroom, Elaine used the "Ice Mirror" spell in her hand to replace the simple altar and quickly chanted the name of the "Golden Queen".

Soon, the figure with long light golden hair appeared in front of her, and she heard a response that was even colder than usual:
"what's up?"

Elaine lowered her head quickly and reported that she had been studying under the guidance of Bishop Heraberg in the past few days, that William had preliminarily discovered the entrance to the underground mausoleum, and that Tia had learned that her old boss had become a "pain" witch and came to Morola, and that Gu Xin of the "Iron Cross" had a conversation with her.

"...I think we should hold off on our actions until we understand the purpose of the Witch Cult and the Iron Cross and the scale of their infiltration into this city..."

Before she could finish her words, the Golden Queen interrupted her coldly:
"No, we need to act in advance and faster. The 'Mirror Passage' near you has traces of being used. This should be left by a Beyonder with a spell similar to the 'Ice Mirror' to spy on you. By the time these people find out the situation and get reinforcements, your advantage will be even smaller, and you may even fall behind them.

“Yes, you have an advantage that they don’t have. This is due to your reading habits and the favor the bishop has shown you… Continue to follow his instructions and learn the knowledge he asks you to learn as quickly as possible. Enter the underground mausoleum and look for the location of the seal.

“Now, arrange this ritual, accept the gift from ‘Disaster’, and become a Sequence 5 Beyonder with the power of both ‘Hunter’ and ‘Witch’. This will give you an absolute advantage when facing any enemy below Saint.”

The overlapping sounds entered Elaine's mind continuously and quickly, like light reflecting back and forth in a mirror, causing her expression to gradually become stunned.
