Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 1331 Self (Two in One)

The moment the mask covered him, Zaratul felt a powerful will, like a monster that had been sleeping in the darkness for a thousand years suddenly opening its eyes and looking at him.

Zaratul, who had taken back the characteristics belonging to his father from Antigonus and used the secret city of "Orville" to complete the ritual to contain it, was sure that this was not the "primitive creator" with only a spiritual imprint and a powerful but unconscious remnant of divinity, but a "celestial being" with a strong will to resurrect and clear subjective behavior.

Of course, Zaratul also had his own plan for the initial revival of this great being, otherwise He would not have put on this mask, and would not have actively chosen to grasp the uniqueness at this dangerous moment, using the dislocation of the identity of the "fool" to fool fate and ascend to the true God.

Zaratul had no choice but to take this risk.

Of the three copies of the "Attendant of Mysteries" that currently exist in His body, essentially only one had once belonged to Him, and it had been lost because He failed to return and "resurrect" in time after His death. As for the other two, although they came from the new puppet He controlled, they did not belong to Him, and would return to the puppet's body once the "grafting" time was over, thus forming a situation in which a "miracle worker" without even a physical body controlled the Angel King who possessed three copies of the "Attendant of Mysteries".

Even Zaratul could not predict what would happen in that situation. Amon, who was already a "wrong" and contained the uniqueness of the "gate" path, might take the opportunity to seize the secret doll and take away everything Zaratul had. Other gods, especially the witch who was also about to become a god and had a close relationship with "The Fool", might retaliate at all costs...

The only way to solve this problem is to grasp the uniqueness of the Fool, and become a god on the spot under the aggregation effect, so that the extraordinary characteristics in the body and the spirits and consciousness of different existences can reach a new balance.

This idea came to him after he returned to reality from the foggy town, inspired by Roselle Gustav. The "Knowledge Emperor" could use the Black Emperor's resurrection ritual to wash away the pollution on his body. Although it failed, it gave Zaratul a good idea.

Moreover, after mastering the "Fool" puppet, Zaratul found that he still could not use the authority of "Source Castle", especially the ability to return himself to the spiritual world gray fog and avoid being threatened by the real world. This may be related to the fact that the previous ruler of Source Castle only became a puppet and did not really die. This authority has not yet been transferred, and He cannot make good use of it through the puppet.

These two reasons made "becoming a god" the only option for Zaratul. It happened that He got some information from the mind of the secret doll and knew that the uniqueness had also been transferred out of the "Source Castle". This means of guarding against Him turned out to be an opportunity for Him to become "The Fool".

As for the "Lord of Heaven", Zaratul has a solution that has the best of both worlds, and this is related to the great "Fallen Mother Goddess".

Thinking of this, his consciousness sank into his body, and the "Tianzun" consciousness, which showed initial signs of recovery, swept over like a tsunami that swallowed up everything, and was about to drown the relatively fragile him.

Zaratul, who had experience in promotion and had fought against this pillar before, was not in a hurry. He calmly used "grafting" to guide the spiritual imprint of Antigonus, which already existed in his characteristics, to Tianzun, allowing them to collide again after being entangled for one or two thousand years since the Fourth Epoch.

Then, He grafted the newly-minted remaining will of the original "Fool" Klein, which was mixed with many extreme emotions, onto the two.

This was just like what Klein had done before, the only difference being that Zaratul's remaining mark was replaced with Klein's.

Soon, Zaratul was somewhat surprised by the result of the chaotic entanglement of the three consciousnesses.

He originally thought that the consciousness of Antigonus and Klein combined would not be enough to resist the "Tianzun", and he would need to use his few anchors and the existence of the spiritual area of ​​"Dylan Castle in Orville" to balance it, but the infection of the consciousness of "Tianzun" was surprisingly weak.

Although "Klein" was suspected to be a secret puppet, and his spiritual imprint was also weak because he was not truly dead and had no consciousness of his own, he had subtly achieved a balance, allowing Zaratul to easily control the uniqueness of "The Fool" that had just merged into his body without having to worry about it himself.

It was tailor-made for me... Was it a coincidence? It was as if some existence was pushing me to become a god... Zaratul's years of caution prevented him from becoming complacent, and he quickly reviewed his actions over the past few minutes.

He discovered that Castle Dilan had been invaded, and noticed that the other party was trying to use this secret environment to take the potion... He used the "Miracle Master" feature to trigger a real miracle, temporarily possessed a physical body, and then borrowed the power of the "Secret Servant" from his previous self before death... He took away the secret puppet that "The Fool" Klein used to prevent accidents, and then took advantage of his confrontation with the consciousness of the Heavenly Lord to turn him into a secret puppet. While swapping the primary and secondary, he grafted all three "Secret Servant" features, and took advantage of the opportunity of fooling "Fate" at the moment to become a god in one step...

These steps do have a shadow of coincidence, but they are all Zaratul's own choices. As a miracle worker, if there is an arrangement of the "audience" channel, even if He cannot be sure, His spirit will definitely be alert... Moreover, fate is mysterious. The convergence of the same channels will produce variables that no one can predict. In addition, the "Goddess of Fate" who has just appeared outside the barrier symbolizes the unpredictable flow of fate, which gives Zaratul stronger confidence.

Even if I was arranged, it means that I am useful, and not just a lingering "miracle worker"... The last trace of doubt in His heart disappeared, and at the moment when the spiritual imprints of Antigonus and Klein in the consciousness of "The Supreme" reached a balance, He began to completely accept the uniqueness of "The Fool".

At this moment, all intelligent creatures in the world were fooled. Many roads were strangely connected end to end, and many things disappeared and reappeared, as if they had briefly entered another space.

What Zarathu believed in as "fooling fate" did meet the requirements of the ritual, and the act of accommodating uniqueness aroused changes around the world!

At the same time, His face hidden under the translucent mask became confused, and then woke up.

He suddenly realized that something was wrong.

----

In the southern continent, in the cursed land controlled by the "Bound God".

The sky, which was originally covered with dark clouds and illuminated by the blood moon, has turned a fiery red. From time to time, meteorites emitting high temperature and blazing flames fall from the sky and hit the already bumpy ground as if doomsday has come, stirring up a heat wave that sweeps across the entire cursed land. The trees with branches pointing upwards have long been burned by the heavenly fire, and there is not a single believer left who has been cursed or turned into pigs and dogs, who has been reduced to dust in the successive meteorite bombardments.

But the hot hellish ground was not empty. Many clay puppets with flames as armor and weapons were lined up in dense formations, throwing out the flaming spears in their hands from time to time to concentrate their attacks on a certain location.

At their target location, there would always be a giant tree watered with an oil-like substance. The bark on its surface had long been charred and fallen off in the high temperature. Its black and white eyeballs and mouths with sharp teeth and tongues either flowed with dark black blood or were completely destroyed by previous attacks.

As soon as the "evil god" Su'a returned to reality from the spirit world, he was attacked again by the army of clay puppets. The few bloody mouths left on his body opened wide and let out silent screams, causing the flaming spears in the air to be wiped out by the vicious curse. The puppets closer to him exploded one after another and turned back into the appearance of dry clay.

He looked up at the sky with resentment, following the slender figure that kept changing its position and deftly avoided the curse and restraints.

Feeling this gaze mixed with curses towards himself, Angel chuckled and cast a wink downwards. At the moment when the "evil god" Su'a was stunned, he commanded the clay puppets that had survived before to gather a second round of flaming spears and threw them at the deformed giant tree.

Her own target was the "Bound God" Tolzna, who was floating in the air a little closer to the ground, with the bandages on his body falling off, revealing his skin with countless complex symbols tattooed on it.

In the previous few minutes of mutual attacks, Angel had severely injured the Angel King, causing most of the thorns and yellow bandages on the surface of His body to disappear, but it also allowed Him to fall off from the branches that pierced Him and regain a certain degree of freedom.

Of course, under the counterattack of the "Bound God" who is extremely proficient in curses and can even drive the fire controlled by Angel to restrain her movements, Angel has used the mirror substitute many times to avoid being completely trapped and cursed. This is not a big consumption for her who has mastered the world in the mirror.

But she soon discovered that Tolzner was quietly using his own power and authority to erode the mirror world that was closely connected to reality and that she repeatedly entered and exited.

This is a bigger threat to Angel than cursing her directly. After all, killing her double has no effect, but using the connection of mysticism to curse the mirror world and then hurt her is a very effective means of attack. Once the mirror world of this "cursed land" is completely polluted and eroded, Angel will not be able to use the shuttle between the two worlds to avoid attacks, and she will not be able to use the mirror double to revive. Once she dies in the attack, although she will not really fall, she will have to be resurrected from the backup clone in the "City of Disaster". When she arrives here again, the two "evil gods" have already escaped without a trace.

From Tolzna and Suea's obvious delaying tactics, Angel guessed that this was their intention.

Fortunately, Angel also had the idea of ​​delaying time. The deadly disease she spread in this cursed land had quietly corroded the two evil gods, wreaking havoc in their bodies and creating internal "imbalance". As angels contaminated by the "Mother Tree of Desire", Tolzna and Sua were already in an extremely unbalanced state, with obvious internal weaknesses. As long as Angel mobilized the power of "Chaos" with all her strength, she would have a chance to severely injure or even kill one of them with one blow.

but……

Angel's body suddenly froze in place. The shadows under her feet, the air beside her, and even the dress formed by black flames covering her body all became the force that restrained her. She felt as if she was tied up tightly with bandages like Tolzner, unable to move.

All the eyeballs on Suea's body, who had been dodging the flaming spear, suddenly opened and locked onto Angel.

The next second, this body that represented all the beauty in the world was completely covered by the curse and turned into a pool of pus.

But the two evil gods did not feel any joy, but looked towards the other direction of the cursed land together, where a new Angel walked out of the mirror world. She was also as huge as a mythical creature, with every detail of her facial features visible, and her every frown and smile touched the hearts of Tolzna and Suea.

But Angel's movements were a little more sluggish than before, and her expression was much darker. The curse on the mirror world was finally reflected on her.

At this moment, a huge roar came from the star realm, spreading throughout the world in an abstract concept. Most angels were aware of it. Angel even raised his head and looked at the sky dyed crimson by the meteorite rain, as if he was staring at the barrier of the star realm through the clouds.

There, several Outer Gods launched an attack, causing the barrier protecting the earth to shake, cracks to grow, and become precarious.

If there were only six gods, the barrier might have loopholes during the attack, allowing the Old Ones to project their power in. However, as a mobile force, the "Black Emperor" Roselle should have gone to the astral realm to support the gods. With the help of Him who has mastered the uniqueness of the "Judge" and has a connection with the "Land of Disorder", the barrier will not have any problems. The six gods can even spare one, and the god can descend to the real world to solve some extra troubles... Angel thought, the snake-like hair behind his head curled up and faced forward, his black and white eyes widened, making a layer of gray appear on the surface of Tolzna and Sua's body, and their movements became slow.

Everything is going as planned, so now... She had just made the decision when the continuous thoughts in her mind suddenly went blank and her expression became dull. She didn't know whether she should attack Tolzna first or deal with Sua first.

Like her, the two evil gods also showed varying degrees of dementia. The "Bound God" was like being bound in place by an invisible object, and even which part of the body to move first became a profound question; Sua's eyeballs revealed undisguised confusion, as if he had forgotten where he was and where he was going.

At this moment, they were all "fooled".

Of course, Angel was the fastest to wake up from this state. On the one hand, this was because of her high status and the source power she controlled could resist this change to a certain extent. On the other hand, she was also very experienced in entering this state...

With her intelligence back on top, she remembered Klein's instructions before the battle and realized that the emergence of such a change that affected everyone probably meant that someone was accommodating the uniqueness of the Fool's path, and the only one who could do this was undoubtedly Klein.

Didn't he say that he would drink the third Sequence 1 potion... The plan had changed, and he was giving priority to accommodating uniqueness? Angel's eyes swept over the two evil gods who were still in the "fooling" state, knowing that he had to seize this opportunity to deal with the most important "bound god".

Under her will, countless clay puppets on the ground turned into flames and flew towards Tolzna who was standing in the air from all directions. Before arriving, they collapsed in themselves, and the colorless flames condensed into a vortex composed of liquids of all colors.

These whirlpools of varying sizes and constantly changing positions, as if in chaos, quickly surrounded the "Bound God", causing his deep eyes, which had woken up before Sua, to lose all other colors and be filled with these whirlpools representing destruction and the end.

"..."

He looked up at Angel, his bandaged mouth moved a little, and he said something silently, welcoming his own doomsday without resistance.

At this moment, he broke free from the control of the "Mother Tree of Desire", regained a bit of his free will, chose to end his bound fate, and gave the god who was still fighting on the adjacent path a chance.

The next second, Su'a's terrifying eyes, whose head was filled with unknown thoughts, regained clarity. His body, which was made up of twisted branches and dark sticky liquid, shrank subconsciously, realizing that the situation on the battlefield had changed.

His gaze first fell on the "Bound God" whose huge body was constantly disintegrating, surrounded by the chaotic vortex, and was sucked into it and crushed. Then he looked at the witch with a sad expression, who was saying goodbye to Tolzner by lifting her skirt in the air as if saluting.

With a whoosh, He entered the spirit world, and taking advantage of the fall of the Bound God and the opportunity that the surrounding cursed land was no longer isolated from the outside world, He fled madly into the distance.

Ignoring Suea, who was running away like a stray dog ​​and showing a similar divinity to the Hidden Sage, Angel quietly watched the last bandage left by Tolzna being sucked into the whirlpool, and said with emotion:

"Goodbye, 'God of Spirits' Tolzna."

She dispersed the vortex formed by the power of "Chaos", waved her hand, took the blood-stained bandage into her palm, and let the black flame of destruction surround it.

Although the "evil god" Su'a has been defeated repeatedly and has a magical power that can bring down the camp of the Outer Gods, he cannot be left behind this time, otherwise the "Mother Tree of Desire" will continue to support this evil existence and create trouble for the Earth at a critical moment... If a city suffers heavy casualties due to Su'a's attack, it will be my responsibility... She muttered to herself, and used the blood connection of Su'a, who was born in Tolzna, and the similarities between the two evil gods to pass on the curse.

The extraordinary characteristics in his body were entangled with the pollution of the outer gods, and he was infected with a deadly plague. It was impossible for Su'a, who had long lost his balance, to survive under this curse!
Within a few seconds, a roar filled with malice and fear from the depths of the spirit world reached Angel's ears.

After yelling like this, even if he was not really dead, the messenger Miss Renette would still cause trouble for him... Angel did not try to go deep into the spirit world to chase the other party, but quickly took out the potion that had been prepared long ago from the mirror world, letting the bottle of liquid that seemed to contain all colors and appeared chaotic float in front of him.

After killing the "Bound God" in a way of complete destruction and finality, she believed that her "Doomsday" witch role-playing in advance was enough to withstand the characteristics of the last Sequence 1.

Once it is taken, all the characteristics and uniqueness in Angel's body will be directly aggregated, giving birth to a true Sequence 0 "Witch".

Of course, this requires the assistance of rituals, but Angel has already integrated the negative side of the "Original Creator in the Mirror", which is equivalent to possessing the symbol of chaos in advance. He does not need to actually dive into the "Sea of ​​Chaos" to endure its pollution. He can accommodate extraordinary characteristics in the most stable state and ascend to the throne of God.

Moreover, now is the best time... She thought of the "trick" that had left her and the two evil gods stunned on the spot half a minute ago, and without hesitation, she tilted her head back and poured the potion into her mouth.

PS: Two in one… Good luck to all the candidates in the exam!
