Mystery: Survival from the Secret Doll

Chapter 215 214 Badhair
At this time, under the grafting authority of the mysterious servant, the astral realm was strangely grafted together with the Kingdom of Night on the main peak of the Honachis Mountains.

As an angel who had been promoted to Sequence 1, and who also possessed the extraordinary ability of the adjacent Sequence 1 Time Worm in this state, Tang easily grafted the two together, connecting the main peak of Honachis with the astral realm.

Above the star realm, outside the barrier, that distorted, ethereal figure is constantly disintegrating.

Countless concepts and information, most of which merged with the starry sky, while a small part resonated with Tang in the 'cat box' and Nicholas who was parasitic in his body through some unknown channels.

Inside the 'cat box', Tang raised his head and looked at the various symbolic signs and invisible barriers protruding above his head, separating the inside and the outside.

Beyond the barrier seemed to be a world of chaos and deep darkness, a world that encompassed countless celestial bodies and civilizations, and encompassed everything except this planet.

And in that world composed of chaos and deep sea, countless stars seemed to be blinking, staring coldly and madly at the planet protected by this invisible object.

"In my own name—"

'The master of time and space, the highest dimension, the destiny—'

The sapling grew up. It was supposed to be invisible, but it seemed to grow out of its own body. Accompanied by the growth of countless concepts, it climbed towards the highest direction. It approached the invisible barrier, as if it wanted to penetrate it and continue to extend outward.

It longs for things beyond the barrier, longing for the various information and mystical concepts left behind after the collapse of his future self.

At this moment, Tang stretched out his hand, grabbed the branch that penetrated the 'cat box' and stretched out, and pulled it back with an expressionless face.

"No, at least not now."

The swaying branches seemed to have their own thoughts. After being caught, they thought for a moment, but ultimately failed to break through the invisible barrier.

Euclidean space was also expanding rapidly at this time. In that high-dimensional space that seemed to encompass the entire world, many mystical symbols and various magical signs unique to the star realm appeared. They merged with countless dazzling crystals, indicating that this space could also observe more information about the star realm at this time.

The astral realm is the kingdom of the gods and the last layer of defense for the earth beneath the barrier.

But the expanded part of Euclidean space also does not extend beyond the barrier, into an unprotected, boundless area.

There is a certain degree of danger there, and you cannot cross it easily without a leader, otherwise something will pour in through this newly opened passage.

It was at this moment that Tang took the initiative to interrupt his acceptance ceremony.

With the help of his monocle and his special superposition state at the moment, he created a bug, making the figure outside the starry sky that was constantly breaking into countless dazzling fragments become equal to him.

Tang also used the rapidly expanding Euclidean space to graft upon himself the power of the 'Observer', thus maintaining himself in a state where he had not yet undergone the weakened version of the deification ritual.

The 'Cat Box' shattered, and after losing a possibility, the 'Cat Box' used in the 'unobservable' field became useless, but Nikola still parasitized in Tang's body.

The Time Worm clone on the side was extremely decisive. He stretched out his hand, pointed it in the direction of Tang, and pulled it out suddenly.

The unique accommodation ceremony of the thief's path has started again.

The possibility of Nicola's clone stealing Tang's extraordinary characteristics is magnified, and Tang will be forced to pull out his extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness.

The Time Worm's incarnation's act of stealing was successful.

This is a constant and also a destiny.

In the image reflected by the monocle in Tang Dai's right eye socket, strange, terrifying and bizarre things continued to emerge from his body.

A translucent mask with the symbol of the Fool, which should have merged inward but was now wrapped in countless dazzling crystals, reluctantly and quickly moved away from the body of the fortune teller and his family that was parasitized by the Time Worm and was almost about to steal the body.

The real world and the spiritual world intersected. After the Beyonder characteristics and the Mask of the Fool separated from their original bodies, spiritual worms emerged one after another from the fog of history, from the past, present, and future.

These spirit insects quickly used the extraordinary characteristics that had separated from their original body as a framework, and under the miracle of "resurrection from the dead", they rebuilt the new body of the mysterious servant.

'Tang', with only his body left, pinched his monocle.

The ritual worked perfectly. The monocle he was wearing slowly melted into his eye sockets, leaving a faint black frame on his right eye socket. Then, this faint mark quickly dissolved and disappeared under the effect of the ritual.

The uniqueness of the thief's path is gradually interacting with the spirit and the time worm hidden within the body, and the wrong concept will also be revised.

At this moment, on the main peak of the Honachis Mountains grafted onto the astral realm, loopholes appeared in one concept after another. They intertwined with each other, forming a new concept that was even more distorted and chaotic.

This is the embodiment of all errors! Even the concept itself has inevitable loopholes!
"The Great Ring of Fate—"

"You are the past, the present, and the future—"

"You are the cause, the result, and the process—"

At this moment, Nicholas, who was at the end of the accommodation ceremony, heard a voice from the depths of the astral realm, even more distant, coming from beyond the barrier.

It was a sound that traveled across the stars and across infinite distances.

It was incomprehensible, but with the power of the top cryptographers, it was interpreted as sounds that could understand language.

That was the pious prayer directed to the person who was replaced that was heard during his acceptance ceremony.

“The great ring of destiny—”

"Respond." Tang's voice sounded in the ears of the Angel King who was passing by the thief.

When it comes to dealing with evil gods, or those groups that believe in evil gods, neither Tang nor Nicholas, as the secret puppet, has too many concerns.

"Okay." Nicholas raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and after hearing the order from his puppet master, his smile became even bigger.

As the reception ceremony was coming to an end, he slowly and leisurely responded to the content of the prayer.

"Die."

Nicolas Flamel, the Angel King of the Thieves' Path, who already embraced uniqueness and was almost the embodiment of all errors, slowly uttered this word in a voice that could pry open natural language.

The next moment, the prayer was distorted and an irreversible bug appeared in the rules.

This word with the effect of supernatural language at the end of the accommodation ceremony was equivalent to the figure walking out of the future. In a very short moment, it replaced the authority of a certain ancient and old time. It was clearly transmitted to the unknown corner where the universe was erased and people prayed to the evil god for blessings.

This is tantamount to divine revelation, equivalent to the deity issuing a death order to the Beyonders who believe in Him. This is a bug.

This is the first time that this angel has appeared in full dress since embracing uniqueness.

The old races that believe in fate will find all sorts of contradictions in their extraordinary powers amidst the malicious whispers and curses, and finally explode brilliantly like fireworks.

This is an irreversible BUG and a loophole that cannot be plugged.

Beyond the barrier, there seemed to be something magnificent casting its gaze. That great being looked indifferently at Nicolas Flamel, who was gazing far away from the main peak of the Honachis Mountains in the astral realm, through that layer of invisible things.

Looking at this angel king who distorted a certain concept and affected somewhere in the universe.

But there is a tightly blocked barrier between them, which cannot be broken through in a short time.

In the depths of the seemingly infinitely distant starry sky, the darkness surged for a while, and finally returned to calm.

That great being doesn't care about the death of its believers. What it wants is...

Tang's expression was distorted. After completing the reception ceremony, his face was changing wildly, gradually transforming into the face of Nicolas Flamel, with clear lines, light brown eyes, slightly graying hair, and soft features.

The parasite replaced the parasite, completed the accommodation ceremony, and became the 2+1 angel king.

He is only one step away from becoming a god.

The Angel King looked to the side at a figure that was constantly twisting and appearing as the spirit worms continued to emerge from the mist of history. He was about to say something, but suddenly looked in a certain direction outside the starry sky.

There, there is a strange light.

Just like the setting sun, everything is heading towards dusk.

The light swept towards Tang at an extremely fast speed, as if it wanted to rule this grafted foggy town.

But in the next moment, a soft, peaceful black seemed to once again cover the main peak of the grafted Honachis Mountains. The night descended on the peak faster than the dim light, surrounding the foggy town layer by layer, making it increasingly secretive.

The dark kingdom where moonflowers and nightshades grow together descended. Wearing a layered yet simple dark long dress, as if the starry night sky was draped over the body, the figure shrouded in darkness appeared at the edge of this deep and dark heavenly world.

He looked at the terrifying giant who was approaching here. He was wearing tattered silver armor and was as big as a mountain. His voice was as calm as the surface of a lake without waves.

'Badhair.'

The giant, as huge as a mountain, paused.

A tattered mask obscured His face, and a voice as dull as a bell echoed across the starry sky.

'Amanisis, move aside.'

-

Tang, who had returned from history, looked at this country ruled by darkness, hooked the translucent mask on his hand, and then suddenly smiled.

"It looks like the God of War is here to cause trouble."

"He must have sensed something." Nicholas standing beside him was no longer wearing his iconic monocle.

Now that the Angel King has embraced such a uniqueness, he can change the external form of this uniqueness that has been dominated by Amon for thousands of years by constantly changing the concepts of mysticism over a period of time.

"After all, he is a true god. Although he is not good at divination and prophecy, one of his words is correct."

Never underestimate the power of God.

Especially when the final destiny of the God of War Badheir is to be made into a secret doll.

The him in the future just now, his body disintegrated into countless information and concepts, helped the Euclidean space grow, replaced the evil god called fate, and helped complete the unique accommodation ceremony of the thief's path. He should have left something behind.

For example, a fixed number was given to the God of War Badheir, who was looking over there, causing the Sequence 0 passing by this warrior to be involuntarily affected by his fate and ultimately walk towards the 'future' where he was observed.

After all, he is a god who masters the concept of decline, so it is not surprising that he was noticed.

But, who knows if this is just a fragment of His 'future'?

"Just leave?" Nicholas turned his head to look at his Puppet Master. "There's no need to create too many conflicts with other True Gods at this time."

The attitude of the gods will directly affect the attitude of the church that believes in them. Even if the Sequence 0 vaguely senses some suspicion, without a real conflict, the Diviner and Thief Paths are not Warrior Paths, and the Night and Death Paths are adjacent paths, so the conflict will not be that great.

However, in this case, it was enough to show that even if they were not on the same path as the Warriors, Night, and Death, they were still Sequence One and the Angel King who stood on the side of the Goddess of Night. The God of War Badheir might not take advantage of this to make a fuss.

There are irreconcilable contradictions between adjacent paths, and the Goddess of Night and the God of War will inevitably have a battle in the future.

"Let's see what the goddess' attitude is." Tang looked at the scorching area between darkness and dusk. The goddess of night had obviously appeared.

"But I think the goddess won't start a war with the God of War Badhair at this time unless she fully understands the uniqueness of the Death Path and can indirectly influence the River of Eternal Darkness."

Tang picked up the translucent mask in his hand, then thought for a moment and took out a hammer from the system space.

It was a small silver hammer with countless strange patterns engraved on it, which together formed one mysterious logo and magical symbol after another that was involved or not involved in modern mysticism.

'Item information: Gold hammer, Silver hammer.'

'A magical item provided by the system. Its power depends on the strength of the 'Craftsman' module.'

'Extraordinary Power: The gold hammer can temporarily enhance a certain physical/mystical attribute of the item it strikes, while the silver hammer can temporarily weaken a certain physical/mystical attribute of the item it strikes.'

'Negative impact: 100 knowledge fragments/hour.'

After several upgrades and with the support of Miskatonic University, the system has now absorbed Sequence 3 of the Mystery Peeper Path, the Beyonder's Extraordinary Characteristics, and Sequence 4 of the Universalist Path, the Beyonder's Extraordinary Characteristics.

This hammer can now weaken the negative impact of restricted uniqueness.
