Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 289 Quirk Elbows Mother Goddess
The voice of "Lord of Mysteries" Klein echoed in the ears of all the Outer Gods and all the spirit beings who had not yet fled far.

You can call me...

"The Fool."

His purpose was actually very simple and direct.

He knew that He was ultimately a fake, a "mysterious lord" conjured up in "imagination".

Therefore, after He was "imagined" by Adam this time, besides strengthening the barrier and kicking the external gods, the most important thing He needed to do was to help the real "self".

He broadcasts to the entire universe through his identity as the "Spirit Ruler," binding his current self to the identity of the "Fool."

When the real Klein ascends to the status of the Fool and prepares to step into the "Old Days," all the spirit beings in the universe will become his "anchors."

Although the "Celestial Venerable" is ultimately immortal, living longer is never a bad thing.

He knew very well that now He should do everything possible to deal with the Outer Gods, even at the cost of severely injuring the "Fallen Mother Goddess".

This is a good thing for Klein and for the Earth.

He sighed silently.

Firstly, it is indeed impossible to kill; He doesn't have that ability right now.

Secondly, He still had some selfish motives to some extent.

Death... at least let Klein become a true "fool" first.

But before that, there are indeed some things He can do.

Those densely packed, re-contaminated "Klein" all died in an instant.

Some of them suddenly collapsed, turning into worms; some suddenly aged, their time stolen; some suddenly lost their luster in their eyes, their spiritual threads erased; some collapsed inward, becoming layer upon layer of doors, the vacuum's suction drawing in the surrounding Klein.

Meanwhile, many more "Klein" disappeared silently at the same time.

The re-contamination of the Mother Goddess was judged to be a mistake.

These errors were all erased by Klein, the "Lord of Mysteries".

Meanwhile, the remaining Klein Moretti, wearing a half-high silk hat and a black trench coat, all looked toward the crimson full moon that symbolized the Mother Goddess.

A low murmur, mingled with the chirping of insects, rose in the inaudible vacuum. Crimson tides spread, gradually solidifying and coalescing into the head of a human woman.

The head, with its facial features, long brown hair, and scarlet eyes, was so beautiful that it was almost flawless, directly embodying the concept of "beauty." It was a symbol of beauty in the universe and radiated a distinct maternal glow.

The only flaw was that there were faint, crack-like lines on His face, and although His eyes were as beautiful as the red moon, they looked like the compound eyes of an insect upon closer inspection.

For a moment, Klein, the "Lord of Mysteries," was unable to comprehend it.

What is this? I've never heard of the Mother Goddess being symbolized by insects.

In the instant Klein began to doubt the Mother Goddess, something seemed to want to "breed" from His mind and become a completely new consciousness.

But this effect was quickly erased and became a "mistake".

If He is false, then His puppets, incarnations, and thoughts are naturally also false.

Errors born from falsehood can naturally be easily "corrected".

This was all too familiar to Klein, who had once been a programmer.

The next instant, a crisp snap of fingers rang out. The spirit realm in this area was completely sealed off, and the Mother Goddess was utterly severed from her connection with the spirit realm.

However, this effect is very limited, since the power of the Mother Goddess does not come much from the spirit world.

Klein, the "Lord of Mysteries," raised his right hand, facing the Mother Goddess from within the barrier, intending to retaliate. But suddenly, he and the Mother Goddess both looked in a direction not far away.

Will the battle between these two "half-pillars" attract viewers?
Without a doubt!

A powerful melody resounded from the hearts of the two "half-pillars".

A dark figure with a cat-like gait appeared from not far away.

He stood still, moving with cat-like steps, facing directly towards the space between the two gods. To his left was Klein, and to his right was the Mother Goddess.

He has no head; masks hover above his neck, and strange creatures move among them.

Among these masks, one with a crying face is facing Klein, and the other with a smiling face is facing the Mother Goddess.

He just stood there, swaying gracefully and confidently like a cat, doing who-knows-what.

Behind the Star God of Joy, time and space shattered like a mirror.

Countless memories intertwine with that shattered mirror, transcending time and space.

That emperor-like figure, composed of mirrors, sits in meditation in the center of the Pure Land, always quietly observing all things in the world tirelessly repeating the same mistakes.

And now, [Memory]'s gaze is turned here.

Ignoring the wriggling Aha, Fu Li's gaze was fixed directly on the battlefield.

"Lord of Mysteries" Klein withdrew his gaze.

He had already heard what Klein had said.

Based on a simple guess, it's probably the two star gods: [Pleasure] and [Memory].

He knew more than Klein did now, and he understood better that there was no such thing as a "star god" in this universe.

Like Serres, she also comes from another world...

He no longer paid attention to the two star gods, and once again raised his right hand to the Mother Goddess.

At the same time, Klein Moretti, wearing a top hat and a trench coat, also raised his right hand.

The projection of the Source Castle invades reality, unfolding between the Earth and the Moon.

The false but complete "Lord of Mysteries" launched its first and only attack on the incomplete but real "Fallen Mother Goddess".

No matter how many loopholes He exploited, Adam's daydreams couldn't last long. After all, He wasn't a true dreamer.

The crimson tide on the moon surged, revealing a moonlit world that transcended "reality".

The world bathed in crimson moonlight collided with the projection of the Source Castle, and the remaining clones and puppets suddenly underwent different changes.

They either withered away rapidly, or their bellies swelled, their flesh and blood converging in the past, giving birth to offspring who were not puppets. Or they directly gained new life and consciousness, no longer being puppets. They began to rebel against the "Puppet Masters" who manipulated them.

But Klein was also deceiving the Mother Goddess about the connection between her and her offspring.

It has become a relationship of "my vassal's vassal is not my vassal".

The children of the mother goddess were thrown into turmoil in an instant; some began to attack their grandmother, while others began to devour their grandchildren.

Meanwhile, many more offspring aged rapidly, became chaotic, and were sealed away.

PS: The support pillars here have been slightly reinforced, so much so that even half a pillar can crush a non-pillar.

The original work's main plot was too weak. I'll strengthen it a little bit here... well, the reason is... well, let's just say it was subtly altered.
