Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 301 Escape

Klein didn't know what to think now, as the burst of dreamlike phosphorescence completely erased the effects of the sacrifice.

However, looking at the two dazed demigods outside the altar, he felt that his danger had not diminished at all.

It could even be more dangerous!

The true god's gaze would not fall upon him, but these two demigods would absolutely want to tear him apart and make him wish he were dead.

"Run!" That was Klein's only thought.

He snapped his fingers and leaped wildly on the flames.

"Die!" Klein fell straight down mid-jump, clutching his heart tightly, his eyes bloodshot, his heart feeling like it was about to explode.

The two demigods reacted the instant he moved, displaying immense killing intent.

"Die!" Lady Despair's icy spear pierced through Klein's body.

"You've ruined the sacrifice, I'll torment you in despair and agony for countless years!" The "devil" grabbed Klein by the neck.

The abyssal aura emanating from him began to affect Klein, corroding his soul and body.

He couldn't utter a single word.

However, in the next second, his body turned into a paper doll, dying in his place.

"It's fake!" This is Klein's new paper doll avatar, combining the abilities of "The Man in the Painting" and Mirror Knight.

This paper figure is also special; it's not blank. It depicts Klein's front and back, and apart from not being three-dimensional, it's identical to the current Klein.

Such paper figures can even use Klein's extraordinary abilities for a short period of time, enough to fool most people and buy time for the real person to escape.

"I must kill him! Kill him!"

Compared to the Lady of Despair, the "Devil" nobles are the ones who have truly gone mad. The Witch Cult has only suffered a temporary defeat, but the Blood Worship Cult's century-long plan has come to naught in a single day. The "Devil" is already close to losing control.

"Stop!" A seductive voice rang out, and the Witch of Despair turned her head sharply to look at Triss, who had stood up on the altar.

She had recovered, and the sapphire ring on her hand suddenly emitted a terrifying suction force, sucking the blood pool outside the altar dry.

This stained the pure blue of the sapphire ring with a hint of blood, and Triss's beautiful and alluring eyes were also bloodshot, her long hair dancing in the wind.

"You mustn't go after him!"

Triss's sapphire ring flashed slightly, and a blue light appeared in the space, with faint threads sealing off the area around the altar.

"You!" Both "Devil" and Lady Despair were shocked. Triss was incredibly powerful now!

"Hurry up and finish her off!" "Devil" glanced at Lady Despair, then charged out to chase after Klein.

"I said stop!" Triss's hair flew like tentacles, controlling this space, the threads like the sharpest knives, slicing towards the "devil".

The "devil's" expression changed slightly; he actually avoided the attack and didn't confront it head-on.

Lady Despair's expression turned solemn. Although the divine descent ritual had failed, it had increased the fusion between Triss and the sapphire ring, which was a level zero sealed artifact!

She had already used up the crystal ball in order to subdue Triss as quickly as possible.

"You go kill him first! I'll handle this!" The Lady of Despair was, after all, a demigod. With a gentle reach, countless threads merged into this space, tearing a gash in the "devil."

The "devil" seized the opportunity to find an exit through the threads, leaped out of the altar square, and chased after the fleeing Klein.

"Are you still going to resist!?" The Lady of Despair gradually tightened the spider silk, pressing down on Triss.

"The fate you spoke of has failed. I was saved by him and have been reborn!" Triss raised her hand, which was adorned with a sapphire ring, and gently squeezed it. The sapphire seemed to come alive and cooperate with her.

All the threads suddenly tightened, cutting everything in their path. The entire space was filled with the spider silk of the two witches, and even they themselves were trapped.

Klein continued to leap through flames away from the altar plaza, while his spirit guided him to take the most suitable path away.

Just when he could see the light, and was only a few meters away, his intuition gave him a frantic warning, and he instinctively rolled to the side.

boom!

The spot where he had just stood exploded with a deafening roar, and the devil hurled a terrifying ball of demonic fire at him.

"You must die today!" The "devil" blocked the only exit, his eyes cold and ruthless.

His body entered a demonic transformation state, a necessary choice for the "Abyss" path to unleash all its power.

Klein sensed the intense aura of death, but at this point, he had no choice but to face it!

But when his gaze fell on the "devil" opposite him, his mind exploded with a bang, and he almost lost control!

However, he was an extraordinary individual with the "Dream" pathway and had recently received a wisp of Dream Phosphorescence, so he recovered in time and did not suffer fatal damage.

"It's a mythical creature!" Klein forcibly controlled his gaze, not daring to fall within the "devil's" armpits.

The demon scales and blue demon flames there were exceptionally intense, clearly revealing parts of the mythical creatures' forms.

This is also the uniqueness of the "Abyss" pathway. After Sequence 4, they possess the ability to manifest a part of themselves as a mythical creature and maintain it for a long time, thus gaining unique and strange effects.

This greatly enhances the combat power of demigods using the "Abyss" pathway, making them potentially only capable of facing demigods using the "Spectator" pathway.

If there are things I can't see, it means my eyes are ruined... Klein's face was ashen. Fortunately, his spiritual intuition was abnormally strong, more reliable than his eyes in battle.

"Mirror Image!" Klein used this ability immediately to replicate an ability from the "Demon".

"Is it a demigod-level desire control?" Klein was satisfied but not entirely. He preferred the ability to fix the form of mythical creatures.

He is now a dual-path extraordinary being, and if he can manifest his future mythical creature form, he will definitely be stronger than "Demon".

Of course, it's also possible that he doesn't actually have a mythical creature form, so even if he were to copy that ability, he wouldn't be able to use it.

"You stole my power?" The "devil" was a cunning, ruthless, and perceptive creature, and it noticed this immediately.

Klein used the Joker's abilities to keep his expression composed; he sensed this was a test.

"You're going to die no matter what!" The "devil" had truly made his move on Klein.

Klein's awe of demigods was amplified to an extreme degree, to the point that even the mere sight of an enemy of a demigod caused his mind to explode!
