Chapter 453 Do you want to cooperate?
735
what?
The Outer Gods fell into deep doubt.

Even Edward, who was watching this scene from the shared mind, fell silent. The experience and wisdom he had accumulated from countless years of traveling through the starry sky were somewhat useless in the face of this sentence, because this was the first time he had encountered it.

"Wait a minute."

He spent some time thinking between the question “Is it because my acting is too good or too bad that I was mistaken for Amon?” and the question “What does the Heavenly Master think of your preaching like this? What does God say?” He then asked Klein in a flash of inspiration:

"You think I'm Amon?"

Then, He suddenly realized:
"If I admit that I am Amon, then you will certainly be wary of me. But even if I don't admit that I am Amon, as the 'God of Deception' you will definitely not believe it. Anyway, in your heart I am Amon. The more I say, the more you will believe it, right?"

Klein's expression told Him that this was the case.

The Outer God was excited, and his facial expressions became colorful, even a little weird.

Human imagination and judgment are really interesting... He muttered to himself while calming himself down manually. He stretched out his hand to smooth the cracked corners of his mouth, and then bent back his raised eyebrows... This whole set of actions seemed weird and scary to Klein, and he frowned. Although it was a bit un-Amon, who could be sure that this was not a new scam of "Amon" who had become even weirder after obtaining Sefirah Castle?
"I'm not Amon... Well, even if I say this, you won't believe it, so forget it."

After a few seconds, He regained control of his emotions, but couldn't help but sigh again: "I don't mind you being wary of me in the same way you were wary of Amon, but you have to know one thing - at present, at least for now, I won't do anything bad to you, but Amon really will."

Klein looked at him with complicated eyes. He saw doubt, surprise, and speechlessness in those eyes.

"…I can even give you some intelligence."

At this moment, the Outer God somewhat understood the inner meaning of the human behavior of “rolling eyes”, but He could not control His eyes and eyelids so easily and delicately at present, so He had to give up: “The small group just now were all deeply parasitized by Amon, including the high priest who led them. Everyone’s subconscious has been affected by Amon. They originally planned to do something to you.”

After saying this, He spread out his hands and stood there, waiting for Klein to make his own judgment.

Amon, will they reveal information to each other? ... Is this true or false? According to my test, three people in the team of nine just now had a normal salivation reaction when facing food. Could it be that those three were also under control?

No, if this sentence is not entirely true, then there are too many possibilities... He should want me to have a chain of suspicion, not trusting anyone, and finally lose trust in Yuecheng under certain circumstances, right? But if he wants to destroy Yuecheng, there is no need to do this. Or, in addition to playing me around, seeing the trust between Yuecheng and me break down is also something that makes Amon feel happy?

Without the Sefirah Castle and unable to use divination to determine whether this statement was correct, Klein looked at Him deeply after a brief silence.

He then stretched out his right hand, gently pulled out, and dragged out himself a quarter of an hour ago in front of Him.

After looking at his own historical projection, Klein's real body quickly disappeared into the mist of history. He ran all the way to the ancient Giant King's Court and hid in the forest frozen in the dusk.

His historical pore image stood up, snapped his fingers, and flashed towards the destination in a series of rising red flames.

The Outer God watched this series of operations intently. When he saw Klein’s figure completely disappear from his sight, and even his mystical connection disappeared, he couldn’t help but exclaimed:
"There is a reason why the Lord of Mysteries is so annoying."

He did understand the historical projection. It was a force that came from history, but it was different from him.

And Klein's disappearance was the most mysterious in His eyes. There was no trace of him at all. His spiritual perception was not triggered, so he couldn't find where he went. Even if he used the "open door" skill, he didn't know where to open it. He could either wait and see or use divination.

When he was chasing Klein before, as long as he entered the mist of history, Edward would lose his direction and then have some casual friendly fights with the God of Thunder to pass the time. But at that time, Klein was also being chased so fast that he had no idea where to go and hadn't carefully planned his route.

Moreover, given the speed difference between them, even if they lose the target, they will be caught up again in a few seconds.

"But where did he go? Did he hide in history? In the fog of history that only the 'Fortune Teller' can find?... This authority is indeed most interesting in the hands of the 'Lord of Time and Space'. The 'Gate' path is already invincible on the vertical axis of dimension and space, and it even does not let go of the horizontal axis of time and space... The symbol of the pillar is indeed ridiculously strong."

Being able to be listed alongside "omniscient and omnipotent", the long list of titles alone is terrifying enough, not to mention the actual display of authority.

After standing there and chatting with himself for a while, He was sure that Edward would not find a way for him. So He resigned himself to his fate and strengthened his legs, then ran towards the place where the High Priest of Nim had said that the "God of Wishes" Cotard had appeared.

“I will definitely not choose Sequence 5 next time.”

He sighed deeply as he was forced to run after Kotar and fell apart several times.

“Alas, but given that I cannot possess divinity or operate in secret, Sequence 5 is already the best choice. Otherwise, my divinity will overwrite the divinity of the original container, and it will be too easy to be discovered…”

……

When the deep pit that the hill had turned into was within reach, Klein (historical projection) stopped, cautiously extended his right hand, and dragged the secret puppet of the past, Chonas Kilger, out of the void.

The tough-looking "Fallen Count"'s facial muscles twitched, and he quickly turned into another German Sparrow.

He and Gehrman Sparrow looked at each other, and suddenly he put his hand on his forehead and muttered:

"Why does the secret doll have to change its appearance?"

"There's no one else here..."

"Don't develop obsessive compulsive disorder..."

A few seconds later, the secret puppet projection, holding an animal skin lantern that emitted a dim light, walked step by step towards a deep pit not far away.

As the light floated, Klein saw the target location clearly and discovered that it was not actually very deep. The difference between the bottom and the ground was no more than two meters. Of course, if compared with the original hill, the change was indeed large enough.

Inside the "deep pit", the soil is smooth with a small amount of stones. There are many mutated, twisted and difficult-to-identify plants growing around it. It looks no different from other places.

After observing for a while, Klein, who had quietly activated his "spiritual vision" and "spiritual line" vision, slowly entered the "deep pit", preparing to follow the planned route and go around every place that was worth re-examining.

As he walked, his brows slightly furrowed, and he said "Huh". He found that his thoughts were somewhat slowed down, but it did not affect his thinking!
This is like the state when you just wake up after sleeping too much, your head feels stuffy and your thinking is not active enough.

This is a situation that occasionally occurs in a person's daily life. Extraordinary people from other paths may not be able to detect it, but as a demigod of the "Fortune Teller" path, Klein can clearly feel the abnormality.

If we go deeper, we will be close to the reaction caused by the "Master of Secret Puppetry" manipulating the "Thread of the Spirit"... The influence left by the Dark Wolf Kotar? No, if it was left by Him unintentionally, it means that He was in the form of a complete mythical creature at that time, and the Moon City investigation team would have collapsed and lost control one by one... If he left it intentionally, what is the point of doing so? Tell others that He has been here? Klein walked around in confusion and found no other abnormalities.

After thinking about it, he subconsciously wanted to walk four steps backwards, then ascend into the Source Castle and perform a divination at the position of the "Fool"!
This has always been his successful method of solving cases.

Klein clenched his fists, holding the animal-skin lantern, and walked around unwillingly before slowly retreating.

Although this weakened version of "Puppetization" did not really affect his physical condition, it still slowed down his thinking to some extent.

He retreated to a safe distance outside the pit, sat on a rock and began to think about countermeasures. But no matter how hard he tried, he could not figure out what happened at that time that made an angel-level subordinate god do such unreasonable things.

A few minutes later, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind him. Klein looked back in astonishment and saw the strangely behaving "Amon" running towards him at a speed far beyond the human limit.

And it also exceeded the limits of the human body—Klein clearly saw that the other person's knee suddenly split in the middle while he was running! Then he quickly sat down on the spot and began to repair it. It was unknown how he sewed his knee back together!

After repairing itself, the thing stood up and continued running towards where he was!

Is this... is this really Amon? It doesn't seem like it.
Klein's scalp tingled as he watched, as if he was witnessing a horror movie live. Just like that, he watched with a shocked expression as the other person ran in front of him, as if he had seen the person he was preaching to.

Half a minute later, the other party ran in front of him.

"Hi."

Then, in a completely inconsistent posture with inertia and mechanics, he suddenly stopped the car and greeted him in a very casual manner:
"You're running really fast. Does your historical fog have a displacement function? Oh... you're the historical projection just now."

Klein had no expression on his face, but he looked at the other person with a look of astonishment.

Then, he suddenly discovered another suspicious point - that is, this "Amon" who was running at such a high speed had no breathing and no heartbeat - he suddenly understood why the other party's footsteps sounded "extremely light".

This might not be Amon... There seems to be no precedent for Amon parasitizing dead creatures... But if this is not Amon, then what on earth is he? Why is he following me?
Klein's suspicions grew, and he finally turned half his body away, thinking out of sight, out of mind.

This is a very obvious "rejection" signal in human communication. If Edward, who is well versed in anthropology, saw that Klein did not want to talk to him, he would follow human etiquette and shut up, unless he wanted to deliberately make others unhappy.

But his half was not like that. The God of Possibility generally didn't care what creatures other than his students thought. After all, there were only "students" and "other life forms" in his world. Sometimes he didn't even care about his students' lives for the sake of assessment, not to mention the bound volume of "Essays on Human Etiquette" that he had put in the corner of his mind and hadn't even looked at for 1,400 years after being transferred here.

Therefore, He took a look at the deep pit, leaned over to feel the slowness of his thinking, then stepped back and turned to ask Klein:
"Do you already know what happened?"

Klein had nothing to say. He shook his head without looking at Him.

"So, it seems that the status of the 'God of Wishes' is higher than yours, so you can't tell fortunes."

Thinking of the good old days when Klein brazenly divined Edward and was captured by him that night, the Lord of Decay looked at Klein with some mockery in his eyes, but He did not say anything. In order to dig out the truth most efficiently, He asked directly:

"Then you want to know?"

Klein paused, stood up, and turned to leave.

He really wanted to know what happened on the day he "traveled through time"; he could even say that he couldn't wait, but he also had no intention of answering the question. He couldn't easily agree to the questions and unclear gifts in the mysterious world.

"You really don't want to know?"

The Outer God looked at Klein's slowly leaving back and couldn't help but ask again:
"I've already said that I don't plan to do anything to you. On the contrary, I'm also very curious about what happened on a certain day in June... Well, it should be June, right? According to the records of the Blackthorn Security Company, you were recruited as a civilian worker in June or July. They are the local extraordinary team of the Church of Evernight. If you didn't encounter any extraordinary events, it would be impossible to attract them..."

He flipped through Edward's records and muttered to himself:
"What happened at that time? Well, at that time, Tingen still had 0-08, and the accidentally lost Antigonus Notes... Antigonus Notes? Is that it? Only it has the possibility of making you a 'Fortune Teller'. Could it be that you were already contaminated by the 'Half Fool' at that time and became half a 'Fortune Teller', so you were put under observation by the Church of Evernight? No, that's not right. Antigonus himself didn't find the Sefirah Castle, how could you..."

Klein's eyes widened slightly. He tried his best to control his heartbeat and resist the urge to look back.

"To tell you the truth, I have seen Kotar, the God of Wishes, in the Eastern Continent. Unfortunately, I did not catch up with Him."

The God of Possibility saw Klein's hesitation. He was sure that his words had worked. Klein had the possibility of cooperating with him, and all he had to do was to guide the other party to agree. Therefore, actively throwing out information was naturally the most sincere choice.

He imitated the tone of his half body and said in a seductive tone:
"Klein, I know you don't trust me, but that doesn't matter to me at all."

"But I am just like you, we are people who want to find out the truth of that time."

"'God of Wishes' Kotal has a strange item on him. It is a magic potion of the 'Fortune Teller' Path Sequence 1. However, he does not seem to have full control over it. Moreover, due to the special conditions of the God-Forsaken Land, it cannot be contained. He is even now struggling with this 'magic potion' - this means that he was not the one who was supposed to get this magic potion, right?"

"Then who do you think should have gotten it?"

Hearing this, Klein could no longer hold back. He turned around and spoke in disbelief.

"Sequence One potion?"
