Ring of Fate

Chapter 1100: The Letter Destined to Be Received
A letter from a great being? Lumian suddenly laughed and interrupted the old man:

"It feels to me like you don't actually exist in this house."

As Lumian spoke, Franca took two steps to the side and leaned against Janna, with layers of shadows appearing in her eyes.

The skinny old man in a wrinkled suit seemed to have a strong desire to express himself, and actually explained his current situation to Lumian:
"I believe that I exist, and you believe that I exist, so I exist, and vice versa."

Franka felt a headache after hearing this and muttered:

"Are you philosophizing?"

The old man's eyes lit up:
"How do you know that my last, um, sequence in your parlance, was called 'Philosopher'?"

It’s true... The witch’s spiritual intuition is indeed not fake... Franka was stunned.

Philosopher? Lumian suddenly thought of a secret organization, a cult of evil gods:
"First philosophy"!
The mentally ill person who was disguised as his substitute by "I have a friend" was also described as a philosopher... Lumian said to the old man thoughtfully:
"Mitra's worship?"

"You know about the layers of heaven and the invisible gate?" the old man responded happily, "Have you also experienced immortality?"

Lumian shook his head and said calmly:

"No.

"I only killed a few 'entry-level people'."

He was provoking and also showing off the arrogance of a "hunter" in order to better play the role of an "iron-blooded knight."

Moreover, if you really want to discuss immortality and the invisible door with a "philosopher", you may be brought into his "kingdom" and be influenced unconsciously, resulting in very serious problems.

The old man's expression suddenly disappeared. He looked at Lumian and said in a hollow voice:
"A great being asked me to deliver a letter to you."

"Who?" Lumian glanced at Franka and Janna before asking.

The two witches disappeared silently in the house, leaving behind only two makeup mirrors that had been placed on the ground at some unknown time.

When Lumian changed the subject for the first time, Franca took advantage of the closeness between herself and Janna and used the eyes as a medium to quietly transfer the two people's real bodies through the mirror world, leaving only the mirror projections!

Now, they no longer even maintain the mirror projection.

They have learned from Lumian that a deep understanding of the names and information of the great beings will seriously pollute themselves, which cannot be blocked by mirror projection. Even the hidden sleeping mirror will be affected!
The old man didn't care about Franca and Janna's departure. He looked at Lumian and said:

"It's the great 'Ring of Fate'."

"The Ring of Fate"? The one He hates the most right now is not me, but Amon. Why did He send me a letter? Is He trying to turn me against Him? Why should I be valued by such a great being as Him... Or is the so-called letter just a medium to harvest my life? Lumian asked the old man with interest:
“You’re not an angel, are you? Except for a few, the other great beings have not yet been able to send angelic power into the barrier.

"Can you understand the true names of the great beings?"

In Lumian's opinion, this old man was at most Sequence 3.

The old man smiled and replied:

"This is the peculiarity and source of pain for the 'Messenger of God', but it is also our most powerful ability.

“Pollution gives us power.”

It sounds quite philosophical... But this special ability is really very strong. The "First Philosophy" Beyonders I met before were very good at pouring sounds into other people's ears or minds. If the names poured in were the real names of great beings, who below the level of angels could bear it? Lumian suddenly felt that he was lucky. Before becoming an angel, he had never met a "Messenger of God".

Otherwise, with all the problems hidden in him, he would definitely explode at the slightest provocation.

Maybe it wasn't luck, but arrangement... As the thought flashed through his mind, Lumian laughed at himself.

With this realization, his blue eyes instantly turned iron black.

He did not want to receive the letter from the "Ring of Fate". He wanted to use the method of scouting the overall weaknesses to find the mystical connection between the old man in front of him and his original body, and then blow them up together!
At this moment, the old man's body suddenly became ethereal.

A silvery-white color with black rose from his body.

His hollow voice then rang out:

"Please accept the letter."

His whole body suddenly shrank and turned into a stream of silver and black light, rushing straight towards Lumian.

He in this house is Faith, and Faith is him!

Lumian activated the black mark on his right shoulder and quickly disappeared from the spot.

He was "teleported" directly to the sea of ​​fog, away from Trier.

However, the silver-white light with black was still in front of him, still heading towards him, and he had not gotten rid of it.

Lumian did not hesitate, allowing layers of shadows to appear in his eyes, which had returned to blue.

He thus entered the mirror world.

The silver-white light with black was still in front of him, in the illusory and dark tunnel, as if it was destined to be received by him.

This is a fate that can't be escaped!

Lumian flashed into another mirror tunnel, and the silver-white and black light once again appeared in front of him.

This time, Lumian did not run away, his eyes quickly turned silver-black.

"Eye of Disaster"!
Although his fateful power did not increase further, thanks to the fact that his ability to "detect weaknesses" had reached the angel level, the "Eye of Disaster" that was a combination of his ability and fateful power naturally also had a certain degree of enhancement.

Since there is no way to escape, then try to clear this letter from the level of fate!
Soon, Lumian saw the illusory river of mercury flowing quietly, and also saw himself catching the silver-white and black light.

That exists in almost all tributaries of destiny.

In other words, Lumian saw the future in which he received the "letter", a future that was destined to happen.

The only variable is that there is a tributary that does not include such a future. It is very marginalized and chaotic. With Lumian's current ability, it is difficult to push destiny forward.

Lack of necessary prerequisites!
A moment later, Lumian saw another picture.

In the picture, the person who received the "letter" besides himself was Amon, who was wearing a black robe, a monocle and a pointed hat.

when!
Lumian suddenly heard the ethereal sound of a bell that came from across the thick history.

A scene naturally emerged in his mind:
Amon, with a thin face and wearing a monocle, was standing in the bell tower, pushing the hammer and striking the bell.

Along with the sound, a huge, ancient, mottled stone bell appeared.

It is a phantom, and the disk is divided into twelve unequal grids by alternating blue-black and gray-white. Each grid contains a different symbol, representing a different time.

Three translucent insects with links form the hands of the stone clock.

They stopped jumping and an indescribable invisible torrent emerged, sucking the silver-white and black light into it, making it seem solidified.

Lumian was no longer within the range of influence, and a familiar voice with a hint of laughter rang in his ears:
"Do you know what the main ability of 'Sufferer' is?"

Without waiting for Lumian to respond, the voice answered on its own:

"Recreate the suffering you have endured on your target."

As soon as he finished speaking, the silver-white light with black color solidified in time broke free from its restraints and flew towards Lumian again.

But what awaits it ahead is an extremely blazing, unimaginable sea of ​​light.

The supernova seemed to have exploded again, in a small area.

The world in the mirror collapsed suddenly, and a large number of mirrors shattered silently.

Of course, this is still a long way from a real supernova explosion and can only be regarded as a simulated reproduction.

Although Lumian was out of range, his body was also broken and re-outlined outside the mirror world.

At this moment, in his "Eye of Disaster", the prerequisites for pushing his fate to the edge of the tributary were met.

Lumian pushed out his left palm without hesitation, releasing nearly half of his spiritual power, allowing the mercury-colored river of destiny to flow into the corresponding tributary.

Everything is calm.

Lumian was about to turn his head to look at Amon who had come to his side at some point, when suddenly, a little bit of silver-white light with black shone out from the void in front of him, forming a piece of text.

Although the letter from the "Ring of Fate" failed to be delivered directly to him and Amon, it was inevitably revealed.

The text was very complicated, but that didn't stop Lumian from deciphering its meaning directly:
"Stay away from the special mirror world, otherwise you will go crazy out of control."

Huh? Lumian was a little stunned.

Is this reminding me?

The "Ring of Fate" didn't try to pollute me or punish me, but instead reminded me?

Does He want to betray other "foreign gods"?
Surprised, Lumian focused on the description of "out-of-control madness".

He then recalled the prophecy of the "Post-Apocalypse Book" and the future self he had allegedly seen during the hostel incident.

“The predictions about my future can’t avoid the word ‘crazy’?” Lumian muttered to himself.

Amon, who was standing in mid-air for some unknown reason, shook his head in disappointment:
"It's not a letter for me, why do you want me to receive it?"

“Perhaps, once you enter the special mirror world, you will also go out of control and go crazy.” Lumian tried to interpret the hidden meaning of the words “Circle of Fate”.

Having said that, he stopped.

He remembered that the "young man" wearing a monocle next to him was once the top "cryptographer".

Amon smiled and agreed:
“It’s possible.

"But I can indeed not go to the special mirror world, can you?"

Lumian wanted to answer yes, but due to the entanglement of fate and the special circumstances, he felt that sooner or later he would enter the special mirror world and enter the depths of Trier in the Fourth Epoch. He could only hope to postpone the occurrence of this event as much as possible until he was fully prepared.

"Why did the 'Ring of Fate' remind me?" Lumian asked habitually.

Amon pinched his monocle and laughed:

"That old guy designated me as the recipient as well. Did he want me to help you decrypt it?"

He continued with a smile:

"The interpretation is that entering the special mirror world does put you in danger of losing control and going crazy, and this may bring unknown risks to those old guys."
