Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 328 Courage and Strategy

Klein pulled a stack of paper figures from his pocket with his right hand.

Whether it's the requirements of playing a "magician," the fighting characteristics of a "man in a painting," or even his foresightful personality, everything leads to one result.

That was preparation for war.

Killing the pirate general on his flagship is insane, so Klein has been preparing for this battle for a long time.

The stack of paper figures in his hand was quite substantial.

"You?!" The demonic form of the "Apostle of Desire" froze inexplicably, instinctively looking at the pile of paper figures.

At this moment, Klein scattered the stack of paper figures.

Even with Klein's dual-path spirituality, there was a feeling of being drained at this moment.

But the result was very encouraging.

Leonard, Sharon, Maric, Beckett, Danitz, and some Extraordinary beings who were dealt with by Klein, totaling ten.

This is absolutely the limit of Klein's ability to combine the "Man in the Painting" with the "Faceless Man".

In a sense, Klein and Edwina are quite similar; both are practically single-handedly forming an army. However, Edwina relies on her numerous secret techniques, while Klein's army is truly made of paper dolls.

"Roar!" The demon in the eyes of the "Apostle of Desire" was fully unleashed, and he felt an extreme threat!

"superior!"

Klein gently pinched the space between his eyebrows to relieve the emptiness in his body. He rarely encountered this situation since becoming a dual-path extraordinary being.

His spirituality was instantly drained by more than half.

However, at his command, each of the paper figures unleashed its strongest attack.

"Soothing the Soul," "Filthy Words," "Wraith's Scream," "Frost Manipulation"...

For a time, an extraordinary feast of abilities unfolded on the "Tree of Flesh and Blood".

The true form of the "Apostle of Desire" was directly submerged in extraordinary abilities and torn apart by various forces.

boom!

Señor was also startled by the terrifying commotion and kept his eyes on the scene. However, the "Purification Cannon" condensed into a huge fireball and exploded on the "Flesh Tree". He was already injured and in extremely bad condition.

Bang!

Among those extraordinary abilities, the ice spikes formed from frost pierced the demon's true form, but were shattered instantly, breaking into countless ice flowers.

However, this does not affect the power of the other extraordinary abilities. Admittedly, some of them, such as Danitz's fireball, are just filler and distraction, but we really can't do without them.

In a dazzling display, all the attacks subsided, and Klein had achieved his goal.

The "Wraith's Scream" and "Soul Soothing" caused the wounded spirit of the "Apostle of Desire" to lose its will to fight and fall into a dream.

Klein had already reached the demon using his "Flame Leap" ability and the embers of the fireball.

Klein's eyes suddenly blazed with demonic flames, and he drew a massive magma greatsword from behind him.

The magma sword slashed at the neck of the "Apostle of Desire," intending to decapitate it with a single blow.

"Die!" The "Apostle of Desire" did not die either. As the ice flowers gradually dissipated, a ray of dawn's light was revealed. This light formed a suit of armor, protecting the vital parts of the "Apostle of Desire."

But more importantly, this "Apostle of Desire" was also holding a dark red sword, not the magma greatsword that demons were most used to using, but something far more terrifying!

The sword pierced straight into Klein's heart, causing his heart to pound.

This is a "fatal attack"!

Klein had seen it in that orb of knowledge from the "Hidden Emperor." The "Blood Emperor" was the true god of the "Hunter" pathway, so naturally he carried this information.

"laugh!"

Klein did not dodge, but resolutely slashed at the neck of the "Apostle of Desire".

Based on factors such as height, arm length, and speed, the dark red longsword will hit the opponent from a greater height than the magma greatsword.

Then, without any unexpected events, the dark red longsword pierced Klein's chest.

However, the sword could not go any further after it pierced Klein's chest.

"What?!" the "Apostle of Desire" exclaimed in shock. "Deadly attack" couldn't pierce your defenses? You are the "Guardian"?

But none of your extraordinary abilities resemble those of a "guardian"!

The "Apostle of Desire" was utterly bewildered, but the next instant his head flew off and crashed to the ground.

call!

Klein breathed a huge sigh of relief, the cold sweat on his forehead wiped away by the frost.

He parted his clothes to reveal a book, Grosser's Travels.

He had tested the book's indestructible properties above the gray fog; it was an incredibly strong defense that he couldn't break even after bombarding it with the Scepter of Poseidon for ten minutes straight.

Only books like these can withstand "fatal attacks".

"This sword is dangerous!" Klein took a dark red longsword from the demon's hand, his spiritual senses constantly warning him.

"This is a magical item that must be sealed away."

Of course, this would be after the war.

Klein took the sword and charged at Señor.

Having been severely injured early on and tied up by the "Golden Dream," he would definitely not last more than two rounds against Klein.

"Damn it!" Senor sensed a huge crisis. He gritted his teeth and had no choice but to abandon the "Tree of Flesh and Blood"!

He transformed directly into a "vengeful spirit" state, performing mirror jumps several times in an attempt to escape Klein's pursuit.

Whether this was effective is another matter, but after the "Tree of Flesh and Blood" lost its spiritual infusion, it was directly blasted into a huge crater by the "Purification Cannon".

Klein was on the "Tree of Flesh and Blood," and he almost lost his balance. He only managed to stay upright thanks to the "Joker's" ability to maintain his balance.

hum!

Suddenly, Señor's image was reflected in Klein's eyes. Señor jumped directly into Klein's eyes, intending to take control of Klein's body.

I've been waiting for you...

Klein smiled, having anticipated this situation and even invited Miss Sharon to conduct a simulation.

He knew everything about the "vengeful spirit's" abilities, but Señor knew nothing about the "figure in the painting"!

Klein made two movements just before the "vengeful spirit" was about to complete its possession.

The first one pulled a white silk scarf from his pocket, and the second one threw a dark red longsword over his head.

He had originally intended to use the magma greatsword, but this dark red longsword seemed more ferocious and better suited for this mission.

After completing these two actions, Klein was actually possessed by a "vengeful spirit" and was unable to move.

Just as the silk scarf was completely unfurled, Klein's body seemed to become two-dimensional, directly entering the silk scarf—this was the "person in the painting."

However, Klein's eyes in the painting seem a bit strange, with another shadow.

If you use a magnifying glass, you can probably see the terrified and bewildered face of that shadow.

Klein finds it difficult to turn living things, or even people, into objects in his paintings, but he himself is a "person in the painting," someone who can step into the painting.

So why did you have to possess me?

hum!

The dark red longsword that had been thrown down fell straight down, its tip pointing directly at the silk scarf.
