Mystery: Big Alarm Clock Ghroth Path

Chapter 29 I'll Let You Go This Time
"vomit……"

Roger's body reflexively resisted the foreign object invading his throat, and he made a retching sound.

But it seemed that Amon used some special means, or it seemed that the black heart's slippery texture was the effect, and it encountered almost no resistance and slid straight down Roger's esophagus.

Soon, "The Evil Heart of the Shepherd" fell into the bottom of Roger's esophagus and was tightly wrapped by his stomach.

"You are indeed fine."

Amon narrowed his eyes slightly, observing Roger's reaction, but he didn't look too surprised.

Then He said in a teasing tone:
"It seems that that person was really frightened just now... Could this be the so-called karma?"

If an ordinary Sequence 8 Beyonder directly swallowed the Beyonder characteristics of another non-adjacent Sequence 5 Beyonder, there was a high probability that they would collapse completely or lose control and turn into a monster.

Even those who are extremely lucky will fall into a completely crazy and twisted state of confusion.

However, Roger only showed signs of wanting to vomit, and other than that, there were no other signs of any physical or mental changes.

Not only that, his body seemed to be in communion with the "evil heart of the pastor"!
At this moment, Roger's heart was filled with mad greetings to Amon.

Normally, the exclusivity of Ghros's pathway would allow him to expel the extraordinary characteristics of "Shepherd's Evil Heart" from his body immediately.

However, considering the secret connection between the "True Creator" and the extraordinary beings of the "Secret Prayer", the arrival of the projection of Yog-Sothoth's power is likely to have impacted the "True Creator". Even if it was just a small channel, it was enough to cause a great shock to this evil god.

The fluctuations of this influence also obviously affected the "evil heart of the pastor" of the "hermit" close to the Aurora Society, completely suppressing its accompanying power and even its living characteristics.

In this way, Roger is like swallowing a piece of special protein, which will not cause his own rejection reaction and can be slowly "digested".

Of course, this digestion doesn't refer to the digestion of ordinary potions, but the kind in the medical sense... It seems like a different kind of "fraud" no matter how you look at it.

Although the whole process was not very uncomfortable for Roger, it was very disgusting, both mentally and physically.

"How is it, what has changed?"

Amon stared at Roger intently, his face full of curiosity as if he was looking at a new toy.

“No…eh?”

Roger, who was originally frowning, suddenly felt a strange influx, as if an extremely tiny energy that he had never felt before began to spread outward along his stomach.

"Do you feel it?"

Amon smiled:
"The Beyonder characteristic of this 'Hanged Man' pathway will release its power extremely slowly within your body. Right now, you are like a temporarily sealed Beyonder item.

"But just like Beyonder items, you can't continue advancing along this path. You can only reach Sequence 5 at best, unless... something like what just happened happens."

It sounds like you're looking forward to it?

Roger complained in his heart. At this moment, he felt that he was feeling better, so he propped himself up and stood up.

"Pallez."

Amon suddenly spoke loudly to the outside of the door:
"I didn't expect you to risk exposing yourself and take action right under my nose. You're really brave."

"But since I've discovered something more interesting, I'll let you go today... You can't escape anyway."

After saying this, He adjusted his monocle and his body disappeared in an instant.

"Take me with you!!!" Roger just shouted and immediately felt a strange distortion in the space around him.

When he regained consciousness, he was already standing in a deserted alley near Zouteland Street, and Amon was nowhere to be seen.

Roger looked around, making sure no one was following him before taking off his mask and quickly walking away into the alley...

Klein, inside the Chanis Gate, resumed his action.

"It seems that Meters is gone..."

He was relieved.

Full of doubts, Klein opened the door and smiled at Leonard and Frye, who were covered in dust and dirt outside.

At this moment, Dunn Smith, Cornley White and other night watchmen arrived one after another, and they all had traces of battle on their bodies.

"How is it, are you okay?"

Dunn asked anxiously.

"It's okay, but someone broke into Chanis Gate using unknown means, knocked me down, and stole the 'Shepherd's Evil Heart'.

"Captain, I..."

A look of guilt appeared on Klein's face.

But in fact, every word he said was true. There was indeed a person wearing an owl mask who used unknown means to cross the blockade of Chanis Gate and took away the "Shepherd's Evil Heart".

Considering Roger's possible identity as an Earthling, his unknown level of strength, and the friendly behavior he displayed throughout the night, he decided to find an opportunity to contact him again and see what was going on.

After all, Klein knew that Emperor Roselle, another powerful person who was also a time traveler and knew many secrets, had already fallen, so he did not want to break up with Roger easily.

Dunn Smith was stunned upon hearing this, but after quick reflection, he simply dusted off Klein, glanced at Leonard and Frye, who were also in a state of distress, and offered a soothing reassurance.
"I'm glad everyone's alright. Just in case, you should stay home tonight and dictate a report of what happened, which will be recorded and compiled by Cohen.

"I will report the disappearance of 'Shepherd's Evil Heart' to the Holy Church. These damned Aurora members..."

Klein breathed a sigh of relief for a moment and followed Leonard and Frye toward the Blackthorn Security Company.

……

"...Having completed all preparations, Lanevus planned to use his swindled fiancée, Megose, as a carrier to conceive the offspring of the 'True Creator.'"

"... "

"But for some reason, Mr. C's plan to advance to Sequence 5, Shepherd, a Secret Prayer, went awry. The Nighthawks and the Mandated Punishers worked together to rescue ordinary people who had been secretly abducted by the Aurora Society and intended for ritual sacrifice. They also seized the mysterious item, Shepherd's Evil Heart, which contained the Shepherd's Beyonder properties."

"This incident infuriated Mr. C. He suspected a mole within the Aurora Society's Ahowa County branch and began a secret investigation. Many people associated with Mr. Z were also investigated, which indirectly impacted Lanevus's plans."

"On the other hand, 'Mr. C' dispatched Samuel Schmidt, a Sequence 7 Hermit. He also borrowed Charlotte Green, a Sequence 7 Magician, from the head of the Secret Order who was punished for the Riel Bieber incident, at the cost of two magical items from the Diviner path."

"They teamed up with another Beyonder who was about to join the Aurora Society and headed to Chanis Gate, intending to steal back the Shepherd's Evil Heart..."

"But their plans don't seem to be going smoothly. Not only did Charlotte Green die, but an unknown force descended and wiped out Samuel Schmidt. This incident also affected all Beyonders on the 'Secret Prayer' path, causing unprecedented disruption to Ince Zangwill's previously smooth plans..."

At this moment, in an unknown corner of Tingen City, a pale-skinned figure wearing a double-breasted black robe and a soft hat suddenly stood up!
