Chapter 926
Chapter 926 Spiraling City
| really do feel a little irascible, but I’m not that quick-tempered... Wearing the papal tiara and dark blue robes while wielding theSea God Scepter, Klein seriously observed his new state.
This meant that the Tyrant card could suppress the negative effects of the Sea God Scepter to a certain extent, but it wasn’t ableto completely eliminate it.
Using Cogitation, Klein composed himself and turned to look at the junk pile in the corner.
Groselle’s Travels? This is my strongest defensive item to this day. Besides, it also has some magical uses, but the problem isthat it was made by another ancient god, Dragon of Imagination Ankewelt. Based on what Little Sun said, this dragon king wasonce allies with the owner of Calderén City-Ancient Death, Phoenix Ancestor Gregrace. Who knows if this book would trigger anyunnecessary developments... To be safe, it’s best if | don’t bring it.
And just like Azik’s copper whistle, the mutated paper figurine can’t be included. It has the remnant aura of Artificial Death... Thismight have a shock-and-awe effect when exploring Calderén City, but it also contains plenty of latent risks.
The Priest of Light Beyonder characteristic? This can effectively restrain dead spirits, a natural nemesis for the City of the Dead,but it’s only an ingredient that hasn’t been made into a mystical item. The effects it has is rather limited. The negative effects areextremely bad. It won't be helpful to my soul state. In addition, lightning can also purify the dead. With the Sea God Scepter andWord of the Sea, there’s no need for me to bring the Priest of Light Beyonder characteristic... Thoughts flashed across Klein’smind as he eliminated the remaining items in the junk pile.
He wore the human-skinned glove on his left hand, wielded Sea God Scepter, and raised his right hand slightly. He made Wordof the Sea fly up and land in his palm.
Following that, the papal-dressed Klein changed the appearance of his soul. He hid his facial features within the shadows of thepapal tiara.
He slowly stood up as the dark blue robes fluttered in the wind, the white bone scepter dazzling.
With just one step, Tyrant Klein passed through the Door of Summoning and walked out of the candlelight, arriving in the realworld. He found himself in the rather spacious bathroom.
After adding the Fate Siphon charm and Death Knell into his body, he opened the door and returned to the living room. He gotEnzo to come over to receive Word of the Sea.
After some thought, Klein took out Death Knell and handed it to Admiral Hell Ludwell.
After doing all of this, he brought his two marionettes and relied on Traveling to head for the coordinates in the spirit world thatwere provided by Miss Magician.
The trip happened rather smoothly. The Tyrant aura made all kinds of strange spirit world creatures not dare to approach himwhile en route. They didn’t even dare look at him directly. Before long, Klein arrived at his destination.
The scene in front of him looked no different from anywhere else in the spirit world. The saturated colors were overlapped, andthere was some thin fog emanating everywhere. Elsewhere, in the depths, pairs of eyes moved away one after another.
The papal robe’s cape fluttered gently in the wind as Klein did a rough scan before getting Enzo and Ludwell to enter a blob offog that appeared very thin and normal.
Suddenly, his field of vision widened with the help of his two marionettes. A grand city that was of legendary proportionsappeared in his eyes. This city was abnormal. It didn’t develop in a vertical manner, but instead spiraled deep into the ground. Itgave one the feeling of an inverted mausoleum.
Its buildings had a myriad of styles, but they were equally strange. Some of them had towering pale-white rock columns with ahuge single house carved out at the top. Some were long and squarish, with the doors placed at the ceiling with no windows insight. Some were built in the ground, a tombstone erected at their entrances. Some were built with white bones, messy andscattered.
The closer it was to the bottom of the pit, the more completely preserved the buildings were. The closer they were to the top, themore collapsed areas there were, ones filled with the dilapidation and rot that time brought.
Klein made his two marionettes stop. Despite standing at the edge of the city and overlooking everything, he was unable toidentify what was at the bottom of the building. Deep darkness enveloped the area as though no light had been shone inside forthousands and thousands of years.
After a brief observation, Enzo lowered his head and chanted using ancient Hermes:“The Fool that doesn’t belong to this era.
“The mysterious ruler above the gray fog.
“The King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck...”
Just as he finished the statement, Klein, who was still situated outside Calderon City, heard stacked illusory pleas. He alsorecognized it to be from a man with a deliberately hoarse voice.
It's the marionette’s prayer from before... Klein heaved a sigh of relief as he silently muttered, “This means that Calderon Citydoesn’t screen out the gray fog. At the very least, the outer periphery doesn’t. | can enter.”
Although he said that to himself, he was in no way in a hurry. He subsequently controlled Ludwell to raise his left palm andspread it open.
Illusory light was suddenly emitted. Following that, with a point as its origin, the area imploded, forming a pair of double bronzedoors.
This door was slightly blurry and extremely incorporeal. The surface was covered with countless mysterious patterns that gaveone the feeling of indescribable heaviness and silence.
With a creak, the mysterious bronze door shifted backward and cracked open a little.Through this crack, Klein saw the deepest and heaviest darkness.
Amidst the darkness, pale-white colors stirred, swirling up at times and descending at other times. It was like a river that wasgushing through a night devoid of light.
On its two sides, pale white stone columns appeared, looking extremely identical to Calderén City’s interior but in a moreexaggerated manner.
At this moment, pairs of transparent eyes and indescribable faces suddenly appeared. They filled the illusory bronze door’scrack, eagerly trying to pass through
Klein’s eyes felt a slight stabbing pain as he immediately made Ludwell clench his left palm.Thud!The illusory door covered in mysterious patterns was pushed by an invisible force as it closed, disappearing from Enzo’s sight.
This mysterious door that separates life from death and leads to the Underworld has apparently changed its course. It’s nolonger the Underworld behind the door, but the core region of Calderon City. The deepest point at the bottom of the pit? Wearingthe papal tiara while wielding the Sea God Scepter, Klein nodded in thought.
This way, many of the powers of the Death domain was remade in Calderén City, causing an anomaly.With this knowledge in mind, Klein once again got Ludwell to raise his left arm.
The left part of this marionette’s body rapidly turned illusory as dark green specks appeared as though he had turned into awraith or specter.
His arm began to stop abiding by the laws of reality as it suddenly extended into the distance. The center of its palm wasabnormally white with an illusory face protruding from it.
The face had its mouth half-open as its tongue was sharp like a snake's. It was covered in white fur.
In a completely surreal manner, the tongue flicked out far into the distance. It was as though it could drill directly into a human’sbody and absorb one’s soul.
Indeed, the Death Envoy powers Ludwell gets from the Underworld creature inside his body has mutated. Not only has it beenenhanced, but it has also gone from remotely extracting Spirit Bodies to directly consuming them... Klein stood at CalderénCity’s entrance and made Admiral Hell display all kinds of Beyonder powers of the Death domain. Through that, he gleaned thedifferences that there were from the usual outcome.
The thing they had in common was that all of them had become more powerful!
Then, Klein experimented by making Enzo use the specialness of his body and the various powers from Flower of Blood andWord of the Sea before coming up with a conclusion.
Aspects in the Fate domain aren't affected...
Lightning Strike is suppressed, making it much weaker...Unable to fly too high...Powers like wind blades, singing, illusory scales, balance, and water membrane undergo no changes...
With the end of these experiments, Klein made Enzo and Ludwell walk down the pale-white stairs, clinging closely to theperiphery of Calderén City. The buildings there had already completely collapsed.
As the two-hundred-meter threshold approached, Klein raised his right hand and pressed down on his face that hid in theshadows of the papal tiara. Then, wielding the Sea God Scepter, he stepped into the thin fog.
His mind instantly felt a little groggy as the scene before him changed. He had already entered the City of the Dead, CalderonCity.
Enduring the irascible feelings within him, Klein made his left glove turn dark.
His body turned illusory as it was tainted by a dark color, turning him into a shadow. Only the Sea God Scepter in his handcontinued emitting silver or blue beams of light.
Using the soul’s screening and the Tyrant card’s suppression to hide the light, Klein floated diagonally ahead, slinking into theshadows of the collapsed buildings. He followed closely behind the two marionettes, beginning to perform an initial inspection ofCalderén City’s outer region.
As he traversed the area, Klein gradually noticed something amiss.It was too quiet!It was so quiet that it was as though the entire city was dead. Even bugs had failed to survive!
Based on what Arrodes and Red Light Aiur Moria had said, Phoenix Ancestor Gregrace had uprooted Calderén City and thrown itdeep into the spirit world. Before doing so, the residents inside the city were allowed to leave. Occasionally, there would be otherspirit world creatures entering.
But now, not only were there no active creatures in the peripheral region, there weren’t even skeletons, zombies, or even one ortwo non-bonelike buildings!novelbin
Klein tensed up more and more. With Enzo’s and Ludwell's vision, he carefully observed his surroundings.
During this process, his gaze swept across a broken pale-white column. The ancient but damaged building at the top had a discburnished from gold inside.
The disc’s smooth surface reflected a figure, but it wasn’t Enzo, but Klein in his papal tiara and dark blue robe!
This Klein had a gloomy demeanor. His face was pale and his eyes were listless as though he had long been dead.
