Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

When the broken wolf head with exposed bones suddenly cut into it, and the rotten eye sockets popped up from the ground, Klein had easily gotten rid of the influence of the "dream". After all, he was not the main target of this ability.

Esther and Amon are the ones.

But the opportunity in front of him was too clear. Klein even felt a hint of ecstasy brought by freedom from his fluctuating spiritual intuition. There was no way he would let go of such a good opportunity.

No matter who the owner of the wolf head is or who controls the dream, Klein doesn't care. He knows that if he misses this opportunity, Esther's long-cherished escape plan will not be able to find a better moment to execute it.

But Esther was not in a good state at this time. She was obviously the most affected by the "sleep" ability - even though Klein had woken up from it and quickly understood the gap where the two of them should escape quickly, Esther Still standing there in a daze.

Her eyes were closed tightly and she was swaying slightly back and forth, as if she was about to fall down due to sleep at any time. Even the ball of light hanging next to Klein was dimmed.

No, "teleport" cannot be used here. The barrier between the God's Abandoned Land and the spirit world is not stable. If I rashly take Esther into the spirit world, I don't know what will happen. I always feel that I will only encounter more. trouble. And I am also not familiar with the Land Abandoned by the Gods. I don’t know what I will encounter if I continue to go deeper here. Likewise, I don’t have time to climb into the gray fog to divine the safety...

But there can be no hesitation anymore. Amon will not be delayed for too long. If he continues to stay here, this opportunity will completely slip away from his hands.

Klein quickly thought about countermeasures in his mind. In fact, after only half a second of pause, he had already made a quick decision.

However, accidents often happen just before the plan. The moment Klein leaned forward and tried to pull out the "Creep Hunger" historical projection with one hand, and was about to grab Esther's arm with the other hand, Esther opened her eyes.

The round star symbol shone in her eyes, but it did not cover up the anxiety in her mood swings. Klein confirmed this with just one glance, and felt a little relieved. However, Esther's movements were even faster than Klein's - she grabbed Klein's wrist with her left hand, and there was an ancient stone dagger in her right hand. Klein didn't even know she had hidden it before. Where.

The dagger stabbed forward slightly, and with the twisted "stealing", the scene around the two people began to change rapidly. This level of dizziness no longer made Klein feel uncomfortable, but he noticed Esther passing through The trajectory is quite confusing and it is almost difficult to capture the true direction of travel.

The comfort of such a journey was far less than his "teleportation", but it gave Klein some time to think about the current situation, including Esther's changes.

In the end, he couldn't hold it back and asked in a low voice: "What are you now-"

The two people's voices were pulled by the constantly stretching and changing distance, and could barely reach each other's ears. Esther's tone was quite brisk, and she even had time to turn around and smile at Klein:

"I am who I am. It has always been Esther, the person you know."

"That……"

Just as Klein opened his mouth, he suddenly swallowed back the next question. He shouldn't have asked. He was afraid that if he asked about it, nothing would come of it.

But Esther already understood what he wanted to ask. After she coughed twice, the smile on her face became a little bitter: "Yes, I can't deny that I cheated on you, even though I had nothing at that time. I know...but it’s still deception.”

In the silence between the two of them, a dim yellow light crossed the darkness and reached their toes after all the rapidly rotating lightning was thrown away.

"Here we are, this is where you and Him came from."

Esther looked at the empty buildings of the Giant King's Court, and let go of Klein's arm. Her cheeks turned red with guilt, and she suddenly switched back to the language only the two of them knew in her nervousness:

"But I didn't completely lie to you. Just like you are 'Zhou Mingrui', I am also 'Lixing'... But, I'm sorry, in fact, I have been avoiding them for things other than 'Lixing'. "

Klein wanted to say something to comfort Esther, but in the end he didn't say the "I don't blame you" against his will. He just nodded to Esther after a moment of silence: "There's nothing I can do about it. After all, I can't help it." I’ve hidden a lot of things.”

"Like 'The World' and 'The Fool' or something."

Klein glared at Esther reproachfully, and then when their eyes met, they laughed in unison - Klein saw Esther's slightly silly smile and guessed that his expressions would not be much different. But it was extremely reassuring.

Even though it is far from the time to feel at ease, and the two of them have not even escaped from the land abandoned by the gods, Klein feels suddenly enlightened. The "result" of the previous answer to the mystery is also in such a lighthearted mood. Desperately suppressed to the deepest level of thoughts.

Maybe, he thought, maybe he could ask her again later, if Esther was willing to tell him the truth of the story frankly this time? A small flicker of expectation flashed through hope, igniting a flame.

Esther was keenly aware of the changes in Klein and looked at his bright and calm eyes again: "Have you come up with any ideas?"

"Not yet, maybe you have some good ideas?"

While Klein was speaking, he was also alert to the darkness behind the two of them. He didn't think that the demon wolf that suddenly appeared could stop Amon for long. Then again, who was controlling the demon wolf?

Could it be the goddess of night?

Esther turned to the dusk of the Giant King's Court. She looked at the magnificent buildings that made people feel insignificant. The towers and stone walls were frozen in a corner of time, standing silently for thousands of years. There might still be traces of past residents inside - but there was no life anymore, only the dead silence that merged with the dusk.

Although the two of them could step into this area with one more step forward, their intuition gave rise to a faint resistance, as if reminding Esther that she still missed something very important. Of course, she didn't have any direct evidence for this, but Esther never dared to underestimate the warning conveyed by her intuition.

The last time I left, Ouroboros took me into the spirit world. This may be difficult for me, but Klein should be able to...

Esther blinked, and a bad idea came to her mind again, and it became clearer and clearer.

"When I was brought in, I passed through the door over there, which is the road I saw you coming from," Klein pointed to the direction in his memory, "but according to what He said, it should be a one-way street."

"Not necessarily, the key to leaving should also be nearby, what I'm worried about is..."

Klein's finger deviated a little: "If my expectation is correct, is there anything in the Giant King's Court that can help us leave here?"

Before Esther could say anything, she subconsciously reached out to grab Klein's arm, but before she touched Klein, Esther froze in place and frowned in confusion.

Then, another slightly hoarse voice sounded:

"Yeah, don't you want to try? Just open that door, I've been waiting for a long time."

Esther didn't even look at it, she grabbed the crow that landed on her head and shook it fiercely: "Your original body is not here, can you still be so proud?"

"Oh, it's so fierce," the crow shook its head weakly with Esther's hand to relieve its discomfort, "I'm here, doesn't it mean that the original body is also very close?"

Klein said nothing, but silently took out the projection of "Creeping Hunger" and was ready to pull out a historical projection to help at any time - as for who it was, he couldn't decide for the time being.

However, Esther didn't fall for it. She smiled and threw the crow aside, watching it flexibly turn over and take off, hovering over the two people's heads from a distance: "If Amon can really come, at such a critical moment, He will not send a clone here..."

The crow "quacked" to express its protest, but did not refute Esther's words with words.

Klein glanced at the black crow shadow above his head: "We have to hurry up."

Esther still hadn't made up his mind: "So, are we going to enter the Giant King's Court now?"

A coin bounced high and then fell. The ominous premonition caught up with Klein in an instant, but it did not shake his firm will.

It was a huge danger, but it was not completely impossible to face... After all, he was not alone now.

The foreseen crisis rippled, and was disturbed by fate into chaos.

Klein let out a long breath, smiled and nodded at Esther: "Let's go." (End of this chapter)
