Secret: The years I served as a foreign aid for the Aurora Club

Chapter 211 It’s not over yet

"So that's how it is. She didn't come for me, but to give birth to a descendant who would inherit Sefirah Castle."

"This is great. It's safe, efficient, and silent..."

After learning about the true goal of the Mother Tree of Desire, the Decayed King immediately lost some interest and looked up at a certain place in the starry sky:
"…So, the current barrier can no longer prevent my kind from sending their power in?"

This is good. In the future, communication with the original body will be easier, and normal prayer ceremonies will not have to be so secretive.

Now, He is a cluster of pollution that can accept commands. A more popular explanation is that this figure is one of the huge branches, one of the countless aerial roots hanging from the huge banyan tree, a finger-sized spirit and follower, controlled by the decadent king himself in the starry sky, and also controlled by Edward Vaughn walking on the earth.

The Mother Tree of Desire was coming for Klein Moretti, not for him, so he didn't need to deal with this matter. His mood lightened up, and he even admired the blood-red moon for a few seconds.

"That key is really interesting. Are you paying attention to the earth as well?"

“Fallen Mother Goddess.” She murmured to herself, “The mother of spiritual power, the symbol of fertility and beauty, the most powerful of her kind… If She lets go of her body and mind and becomes the mother of all things, the origin of everything, then, in the words of Earthlings, she will have combat power at the level of ‘turning the table over’.”

“I really don’t want to help Him deal with Bethel Abraham until it’s absolutely necessary.”

To be fair, the initial awakening was not too hopeless for Him, it was just a part of His fate. Death was also nothing, the will was eternal, the body and mind were one, and He would definitely return one day in the future or in the next reincarnation.

Even if God and the Lord of Mysteries were all born from human beings, it does not necessarily mean that they will love this world or treat humans differently. Fighting, plundering and completion are the true nature of divinity. The universe has always been like this. The decadent king believes that as long as a few hundred years, thousands of years, tens of thousands of years pass... they will all succeed. By then, the one-fifth of God and the heirs of the Heavenly Lord who are currently fighting for the earth will also turn their eyes to the starry sky, because that is the cradle and destination of everything.

The efforts of mankind seem a little incomprehensible to Him, but since they have also put in thousands of years of sweat and sacrifice and are prepared to continue, He will not refute them directly - after staying in the starry sky for a long time, he should have some negotiation skills.

Then, He turned and looked at Klein.

See if this kid has made any progress. If not, just tell the True Creator that he was killed by the Mother Tree of Desire.

At this moment, in the eyes of the Decayed King, Klein, whose health bar was only 60% left and whose various attributes had slightly decreased, had calmed down.

If he had faced Megose in Tingen, Klein would have been affected by similar scenes and temporarily lost the ability to react due to fear and panic. But after going through so many things, he was already a truly experienced person and a senior Beyonder. Although he didn't fully understand the current situation, he was ready to fight against the mutated Cynthia.

As Cynthia's words entered his ears, the glove on his left palm quietly changed color.

A thin layer of scales appeared on the surface of the Creeping Hunger, turning it into a low-key yet noble gold color. This meant that Klein had used this extraordinary item again to graze the soul of the "psychologist"!

In an instant, his pupils stood up and his eyes turned golden. Then, an invisible wave swept out to the surroundings with him as the center.

Wherever the wave passed, the waiters and maids surrounding them suddenly showed expressions of panic and fear, as if they had encountered the most terrible and terrifying thing in the world. Their rationality, obscured by desire, struggled to surface, warning them to escape from here.

The same happened to the people standing outside. Those who were drowsy were awakened, and those who were walking back and forth or talking loudly had their voices interrupted. Great fear took over their hearts, and they ran around aimlessly, and the entire mansion was in chaos.

This is the "shock" of the "psychologist", also called "dragon power" or "group chaos"!
This is Klein's only range-controlling extraordinary ability at the moment!
Not finding a replacement target seems like it’s not a bad thing... Klein slowly exhaled and looked at Cynthia.

Even though the people around her had lost their minds and fell into chaos, Cynthia did not change at all and turned a blind eye to "Long Wei".

The mutated Cynthia could actually resist this influence directly... Klein's pupils shrank, and he suddenly jumped two steps to the side.

A brown branch emerged from where he was standing, with a mucus-leaving flower on the top. The flower was extremely large, and when it opened, it seemed like it could swallow a whole person.

Although Klein had never seen the carnivorous plants in the primitive rainforest of the southern continent, he believed that they would not be more terrifying or exaggerated than this!

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
The same branches sprouted from the walls, floor, and ceiling one after another. They carried wet flowers and chased Klein from all directions.

During this process, the flowers bit the servants who were wandering aimlessly in the room, as well as the guards, male and female servants who were around.

At this moment, with the lesson of the previous "Dragon Might" being resisted, Klein pulled out his right hand without hesitation, holding the dark golden high-level talisman tightly in his palm.

"The Ninth Law"!
He had not intended to use the spell so soon, not because he was reluctant, but because he wanted to fight for a while to confirm what the monster Cynthia had mutated into was good at, and then weaken it in a targeted manner. But now Klein could clearly feel that his physical condition was slowly declining, most likely because of the conflict with the stranger just now. He was injured. Although the "All Black Eye" was on him, Klein's mental state did not allow him to use it again.

The current situation forced Klein to reveal his trump card directly, otherwise he doubted that he could hurt the tree-like monster at all!

If the Ninth Law spell cannot create an environment that can kill monsters, I will use it to escape from the villa, lead Cynthia outside, and then find an opportunity to pray and go to Sefirah Castle... No, it is best not to reveal the existence of Sefirah Castle in front of that stranger, but "He" seems to know me? As the thought flashed through his mind, Klein, who kept jumping and dodging between branches and flowers, muttered a word in ancient Hermetic language:

"Law!"

As the opening spell echoed, the dark golden talisman in Klein's palm suddenly became cold, as cold as if it made people lose all emotion.

At this moment, Klein achieved an extremely calm state. While casting the "Ninth Law" spell, his thoughts flashed through his mind as he considered what to restrict.

His first reaction was to forbid any desire, but he knew that this was too broad, so he thought of changing it to forbidding the desire to reproduce. After all, Cynthia's wish was to have a child with Admiral Amyrius, and her influence on those around her was mainly in this aspect!
Just as the "Ninth Law" spell flew into the air and turned into dots of dark golden light that spread in all directions, Klein suddenly thought of a question:
Cynthia was an ordinary person before!

Then why did she transform into a monster?
Because of some cult rituals? Like Megose, who became a carrier of evil power because of cult rituals? No, Cynthia has been staying in the mansion all this time, surrounded by Admiral Amyrius's men. If Cynthia participated in the rituals and did something unreasonable, she would definitely be discovered, and my spiritual intuition would warn me "not to look at her"... It should be that she has some special items on her body, which interact with some corresponding powers, causing some powers to be temporarily projected over, so she was fine the first two nights, but suddenly mutated today...

Moreover, this kind of sudden change was not the first time... Klein once again thought of the overeating servant and the homeless substitute who suddenly died of overeating the day before he arrived.

The extraordinary ability of "magnifying desires" appeared twice, forcing Klein to think. This time, the substitute mission was ostensibly a request from Amyrius, but it might actually be a plan against him!

But there was no need for Amyrius to involve his guards and mistress... Klein glanced at the stranger who was standing there in a daze. For a demigod, catching me, Gehrman Sparrow, would be a piece of cake. There was no need to make it so complicated, and there was no need to attract such a strange and powerful person. In other words, this accident might have nothing to do with Amyrius, and Amyrius might even be the biggest victim!
There was no time to think carefully. Klein made a quick judgment within two or three seconds. He no longer hesitated, seized the opportunity, and spoke in a low voice:

"Interaction with the outside world is prohibited here!"

The ancient Hermes language full of mysterious meaning instantly spread out, and the scattered dark golden light suddenly intertwined into countless legal symbols and magic signs, and merged into the void.

hum!
There was a sudden ringing in Klein's ears, as if he saw an invisible light full of desire being excluded from the room.

Immediately, an illusory and bright starry sky appeared in front of his eyes, and a star blooming brightly appeared.

Snapped! Snapped! Klein's eyes exploded, and liquid mixed with blood flowed out ferociously and horribly.

The figure once again turned his gaze toward Klein, then looked up at the shimmering night sky.

“Not clear enough,” He said.

Although he used the "Ninth Law" spell to isolate himself from external influences, the power was of an extremely high level. Even a normal backlash was enough to penetrate the natural protection of the high-level spell and blew off his eyes!

This kind of damage was swift and without warning, and Klein had no chance to use a paper substitute, just like the "Master of Secret Dolls" Rosago.

If he didn't have the "Ninth Law" spell, more than just his eyes would have exploded, he might have turned into a monster like Cynthia!

At the same time, Cynthia, who was as tall as a tree, stood still there, her body suddenly disintegrated, and turned into a pool of flesh and blood with brown-green tumors. The general guards and male waiters around her fell to the ground with thuds, and fainted beside the bed and on the ground.

Cynthia's head was embedded in the mass of flesh and blood, and she murmured to herself: "General, I want to have a child with you..."

She tried hard to stretch the remaining branches on the ceiling and walls, and immediately entangled Klein, who was in a dizzy state due to the backlash, and dragged him towards her.

As soon as Klein recovered a little, he struggled hard. Whether he tried to snap his fingers to ignite the fire or switch to "Creeping Hunger", it was difficult to succeed because his hands and arms were tied tightly.

Seeing the brown-green tumor getting closer and closer, Klein suddenly had an idea and changed his appearance directly, from Admiral Amyrius to Gehrman Sparrow, a Gehrman Sparrow with bloodshot eyes!

The entangled branches paused for a second, loosened a little, and waved around, as if trying to grab something.

Cynthia's head was full of loss and confusion as she whispered:

"General, where have you been..."

"General, where have you been..."

Klein's arms had some room to move, but it was still not enough to escape. Fortunately, he was no longer Admiral Amyrius and was no longer Cynthia's first target. He immediately used his extraordinary ability to transfer the wounds from his eyes to his left shoulder.

Klein looked at Cynthia's head in the pile of flesh and blood with pity. As his left shoulder became a bloody mess, the "Creeping Hunger" took on a dark green luster. He planned to use the power of the "Zombie" to break free from the restraints first, and then use the power of the "Sun Priest" to purify it.

Just as he began to move, the stranger who had been watching the show until now suddenly started to move as well.

A figure floated to the pool of completely collapsed flesh and blood, and "reached out" to lift up Cynthia's still beautiful head.

Cynthia's eyes turned left and right, and finally she had to look at the vague shadow, still whispering:

"General, have you seen him?"

"General, where did he go?"

"Close your eyes, beautiful child," the Decayed King said to Cynthia, "Dream about the position of that star and go to your mother. Close your eyes, and I will send Admiral Amyrius to find you."

...Sir, I seem to have heard something very scary...Klein's hairs began to stand up again.

This sentence seemed to evoke some memories of Cynthia. Her eyes gradually became hazy, her eyelids gradually closed, and only a dreamlike voice could be heard slowly:
"Mother, I hope the general and I can have a child..."

"Mother, I want to go find mother..."

Cynthia's eyes finally closed, her expression was not very peaceful, but full of sadness.

Her head gradually melted, and the pieces of flesh on the ground also gradually melted. The essence of those disgusting tumors was flesh and blood that had been alienated and contaminated by extraordinary abilities. At this moment, they were gradually returning to their normal appearance, as if the spirituality on them was being stripped away.

A gust of wind blew, and the disgusting, mutated flesh and blood disappeared, leaving only a messy room.

Cynthia's head completely melted, leaving behind an object that glowed with spiritual light.

The figure "picked up" the shiny object and "held it to his face".

A spiritual foreshadowing appeared in the eyes of the declining king. He saw the crimson moonlight becoming thicker and thicker, and finally it seemed to become a red "curtain". Then, an image appeared on the "curtain".

The centerpiece of the scene is a mummy wrapped in yellowed bandages, pierced by countless brown branches and suspended in mid-air.

Its belly was bulging, with a certain part bulging and then deflated from time to time, as if it was nurturing new life.

The mummy's mouth opened and closed, screaming continuously. Although Klein couldn't hear the actual sound or see the scene clearly, there was still a terrifying and strange pain resonating in his body and soul.

"The Bound God"!
Edward, who was walking on a wasteland somewhere in the southern continent, suddenly stopped and looked towards the sky in the distance. He caught sight of one of the twinkling stars in the sky, and the corners of his mouth rose strangely:
"I see you..."

"I see you."

In the ruins of the Oravi Naval Base, the Decayed King lowered his hand, and the spiritual object in his hand shone brightly. He turned his head to look at Klein, then at the All-Black Eye, and finally at the object in his hand.

"Since you helped me, I will forgive you this time for His sake."

He turned and left, and the blurry figure quickly disappeared into the air.

At this moment, Klein found a drop of blood on his shoulder flying out of thin air, and then disappeared in an instant.

In the occult, all kinds of evil rituals require blood and hair as a medium to start, such as witches. Under no circumstances can these mediums be left in the hands of witches, otherwise you will be cursed to death quietly at any time. Klein did not think that killing a small person like him would require this stranger to curse with blood, but Klein did not dare to think about it, and he could not think of any reason.

Let's go back to the gray fog and try to see if there is any way to make the blood medium ineffective... He felt pain all over his body and stood up with great difficulty.

With Cynthia's death and the stranger's departure, the base ruins returned to a deathly quiet state. A gust of night wind blew, causing German Sparrow, who was wearing a general's dress uniform, to shiver.

“What should I do?” After the life-and-death crisis was over, Klein broke out in a cold sweat. “How should I explain this to Admiral Amyrius? On the third day after you left, your mistress mutated into a monster for some reason and attracted a strange strong man. In the end, the strange strong man destroyed your base, killed your mistress, and then left?”

"What on earth is Cynthia involved with? The Mother Tree of Desire?"

At the base site that had almost become a wasteland, Klein was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

How could a good substitute mission turn out like this!

Ten seconds later.

Klein's blood appeared on Edward's hand through a simple ritual. Edward wiped the blood in the air, creating dozens of bloody lines.

He grabbed all these thin threads, stroked them carefully, and observed them, and suddenly laughed:
"interesting."

"In the near future, will I have the opportunity to walk on Earth with my true appearance?"

"This possibility was actually seen from Klein's eyes?"
