Next, I will pray to the gods I believe in, asking them to help us leave the God-forsaken land. Please help me guard it. Baima Academy~ ^追^蕞^譆_咬/接\"
Bernadette's eyes flashed: "Okay."
Edward took out a candle from his leather bag, lit it, and burned the correct essential oils, hydrosols, herbal powders and other items. He clasped his hands together and prayed quietly:
"I pray for the strength of the night;"
"I pray for the hidden power;"
"I pray for the favor of the goddess;"
"I pray to the goddess to take me away from the forsaken land."
"O night herb, herb of the red moon, please convey my prayers to the goddess!
"O Moonflower, herb of the red moon, please convey my prayers to the goddess!"
call--
The next second, the candle flame jumped sharply, and the burning ashes on the ground were blown away by the wind.
"Puff!"
A sneer sounded, "Hahahaha, sorry, sorry, I usually don't laugh no matter how funny something is, unless I can't help it."
With a teasing laugh, Amon, wearing a black classical robe and a pointed hat, appeared out of thin air. "Don't you know that the power of the Seven Gods cannot affect this place? You pretend to pray to the night, as if you can leave at any time. Are you stupid, or do you want to insult my intelligence, or do you simply want me to come out?"
He touched the monocle on his right eye and smiled, "Now that I'm out, what are you going to do to me?"
Chapter 353: Sealed Artifacts' "Combination Technique"
Without waiting for Edward to answer, Amon said, "However, you are right. You can definitely take a gamble. In fact, except for those who steal my path, I rarely take the initiative to kill people."
Edward stood up silently, "I'm already betting."
In his hand there is a black puppet. +Xian^Yu/Reading`Book¨Wu? `Has been published¨The most ^Xin*Zhang`Jie?
"The power of Ouroboros? Oh, you want Him to save you? Give up. Every time the Hanged Man falls asleep, He will be watching over him."
Amon's eyes flashed with countless strange symbols, "No, there is also some... power of the Outer Gods? Your composition is very complicated."
Edward tossed the black puppet up and down. "Do you know what your father originally meant by the bug of Sequence 0 of the Thief's Pathway?"
For the first time, Amon's eyes showed a strong fluctuation: "What did you say?"
Swish!
Almost at the same time, the pitch-black puppet rushed towards Amon, but just a few meters away from Amon, it was torn into pieces by an invisible force.
"Oh, you actually know the bug. It seems that today's harvest is much greater than I thought."
Dingling.
The bell rang loudly.
Edward popped out a gold coin: "If we can eliminate Amon in front of us, we can eliminate all the clones that are parasitized by him."
Numbers facing up indicate a negative.
reverse!
Amon was stunned. He inexplicably felt a sense of crisis:
"What did you do?"
The next second, Edward took out the picture frame and injected spirituality into it.
Amon disappeared instantly and was put into the world in the painting.
"Box of the Old Ones!"
Edward yelled.
Bernadette took out the Box of the Past and opened it, "swallowing" the picture frame thrown by Edward - during the whole process, the Box of the Past seemed to ignore Edward's existence.
Pop.
The Box of the Past is closed.
Bernadette threw it back into the spirit world without hesitation.
"Did it work?"
Edward tossed the coin.
The head facing upwards indicates affirmation.
Is Amon really trapped in the Box of the Ancients?!
Or is this just another one of His deceptions?
Edward rarely expressed doubts about his own divination results.
At this moment, time worms seemed to emerge from the air, squirming and quickly shrivelling up and losing their vitality.
Just as Edward was about to look, he suddenly felt an extremely itchy throat, and then he started coughing violently, and his heart seemed to be about to burst.
Cough cough cough!
Lilith in his arms also poked her head out and started coughing violently.
After coughing for nearly a minute, the man and the cat coughed up the same thing one after another. It was a time worm that looked like the shriveled worms all over the ground around them.
It is the size and thickness of a finger, with some completely transparent areas on its body, forming circles of rings, twelve in total.
Edward's pupils contracted:
when?!
When did Amon complete the parasitism on himself and Lilith? !
His hair stood on end.
Yes, even those high-sequence warriors in Moon City were quietly parasitized by Amon, not to mention himself and Lilith.
No wonder Amon was so easily "lured out" by his own words. It turned out that He had already completed his parasitism on himself. To Him, no matter how He played this game, He would win - but as a man of fun, He obviously cared more about the process of winning. He wanted to enjoy the pleasure of deception in it.
However, since He had already completed the parasitism, shouldn't He have already discovered that the uniqueness of the doorway was in Himself? Why did He still show such curiosity?
Just for fun?
Or is it that for some reason we are unable to perceive the existence of uniqueness?
Or...the only thing is that Mr. Men is lying to me?
At this time, Bernadette casually said, "The ability I used to resist "Him" just now was the mysterious reappearance of "Stealing the Bell by Covering Your Ears" that I completed not long ago."
Edward was stunned for a moment, then realized that she was explaining why she didn't let him record this ability the first two times he dealt with demigods with the ability to steal - because it was not yet completed at that time.
"Okay, let's leave here first. Since Amon's clones still exist in the God-Forsaken Land, maybe his other clones already know what happened here."
"Um."
Edward asked hesitantly, "You said the high priests, are they still being parasitized by Amon?"
"Want to go back and take a look?"
"this..."
Edward suddenly felt a little scared. Even though the people of Moon City were implicated by him, he couldn't be so foolish as to take risks just because of guilt.
Bernadette waved her hand and collected the dozen or so shrunken Time Worms on the ground. "Go and have a look. If they are still being parasitized, it means that being locked up in the painting world and put into the Box of the Old Days is just another fraud by the Angel King."
Edward thought about it and agreed.
However, based on Amon's character in the original novel, even if everyone in Yuecheng is fine, we still cannot rule out the possibility that Amon is committing fraud.
What the hell, I can't have anything to do with a thing like Amon!
...
Silver City, at the base of the round tower.
The small, enclosed room was completely silent; even the sound of breathing was extremely faint. An old, withered figure huddled on the bed in the corner of the room, as if dead.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes.
His cloudy but profound eyes seemed to be looking into the distance through the thick stone slabs. His fingers gently tapped on the wall, making a tapping sound, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile:
"Oh? There was actually a clone... It disappeared without any warning, without leaving any trace or information? Could it be the Hanged Man who did it?"
He asked himself and answered, "No, He doesn't bother to care about me. That's interesting."
He sat up straight and stretched. "In this situation, the main body will definitely come out to deal with it personally, right? Hey, it would be great if the main body also disappeared like this. With my qualifications, I might be able to become the new main body in the Qun Meng vote."
"I'm really looking forward to it."
...
Edward and Bernadette returned to the barrier again. The people from the Several Cities were still lying on the ground without waking up. There was a shriveled Time Worm lying next to the mouth of each of them, which must have been vomited out not long ago.
Edward cast a wakefulness spell on each of them. After waking up, the soldiers from the Moon City immediately picked up their weapons and looked at the two men vigilantly.
"Someone attacked us."
Edward quickly explained, "A demigod of the Thief's Path."
Although Amon is the King of Angels, the clone he just created only has the strength of Sequence 4.
Nim waved his hand, asking the Moon City warriors to retreat, his gray eyes full of solemnity: "If he is just a thief demigod, we won't be caught unprepared."
"Your Moon City should have records about the Angel Kings. The thief demigod just now is the incarnation of one of the Angel Kings."
Nim was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "So it was that person. This is not hard to understand." After a pause, he asked, "Did you get rid of that clone?"
Edward smiled bitterly. "To be honest, I'm not sure, because I can't tell whether all this is a fraud of His."
"…"
Nim did not speak. He had seen records about the thief Angel King in the ancient books of Moon City, and he could probably tell what kind of person He was from the words between the lines.
I have to say, facing this kind of guy with bad character and terrible strength is really despairing.
"I suggest that you return to Moon City immediately and use your seals to conduct a comprehensive inspection of yourself." Having said this, he paused and asked hesitantly, "You should have a seal with this function in Moon City, right?"
