Chapter 322: The
The Messenger lady watched Arrodes quietly, and Klein also sensed her gaze; being watched by one person gave Klein the effect of being surrounded by a crowd, which was slightly socially mortifying.
However, Arrodes had superb situational awareness and quickly followed the rules to pose a question, shifting the focus.
"Supreme Master, are you going to test me again?" This line of text appeared on the surface of the Arrodes Mirror, and then, without waiting for Klein to answer, a lightning storm at maximum power was blasted out with a boom!
"Roar!" The "Sea Giant" felt the threat and resisted frantically, but it was turned directly into ashes in that maximum-power lightning storm, leaving only floating Beyonder Characteristics.
This lightning storm even affected the corpse of the "Sea God" Kavatuwa, blasting it into a bloody mess.
It was at this moment that a storm formed within the ruins, sweeping up all the Beyonder Characteristics and concentrating them onto one of Kavatuwa's teeth.
The tooth gradually turned into a short scepter, with tiny blue-green gemstones embedded at the top.
"It... is... dangerous," the Messenger lady reminded.
"Thanks for the reminder." Klein walked forward holding the Book of Calamity, carefully placing his hand on the scepter.
No danger occurred; Klein easily grasped this scepter.
Klein let out a light sigh of relief; this scepter indeed had an extremely close connection with the Book of Calamity, capable of suppressing the scepter's negative effects.
"They are of the same origin, both coming from Gaoxinamu? Perhaps there are things I haven't seen through yet..."
"I... am... leaving." Seeing that he had not been harmed, the Messenger lady shook her four heads gently and left this place directly.
"The Messenger lady has become the Bodyguard lady?" Klein blinked.
"This scepter..." Klein had already felt the Authority of the "Sea God," and coupled with the Book of Calamity, he was the one who had inherited all of Gaoxinamu's assets!
"The Sea God" was someone capable of fighting a Sequence 3 "Sea King" of the Storm Pathway; I am even more powerful than He, possessing the power of an Angel!
"Such a powerful feeling, it almost made me lose myself!" Klein's spirituality warned him, allowing him to forcibly break free from a certain mindset of controlling everything.
"How sinister!" Klein even felt these two items were becoming too hot to handle and needed to be sent Above the Gray Fog to be sealed.
"But I can try out the power first..." Klein held the Book of Calamity in one hand and the Sea God Scepter in the other, and according to the guidance of his spirituality, he reached out and tapped the Sea God Scepter lightly.
Rumble!
A lightning storm, many times more powerful than the one released by Arrodes, rose up with a boom!
Its power completely surpassed Klein's current level of cognition; amidst the frantic leaping of electric light, it directly erased the entire Elf Ruins!
Gulp! Klein swallowed, discovering that that illusion might not have been entirely wrong.
"Who is it!" A voice full of fury echoed through the Spirit World.
Klein's spiritual intuition jumped violently, and he felt terrifying danger.
Then he naturally judged that the person who had arrived was a Cardinal of the Storm Church, the "Sea King" Ahn Kortman!
"Oh no, I got carried away!" Klein was a bit panicked; after all, standing before him was a genuine Sequence 3 Demigod!
However, running away just like that did not conform to the "Magician" code.
Klein tapped the Sea God Scepter lightly and nodded slightly at this "Sea King," as if greeting him.
Afterward, he deliberately retreated, causing the "Sea King's" expression to change slightly.
"Stop! You dare to leave after taking things from my Storm Church?!" The "Sea King" was so angry that his hair, which looked like seaweed, danced wildly.
His eyes were suddenly filled with azure waves, and it was as if a sea area was manifesting within the Spirit World; he was the king of this sea area, and every spray of the waves was like his soldiers. These "soldiers" turned into a frantic tornado, strangling toward Klein.
"Hmm?" Klein narrowed his eyes, stopping his steps as if provoked, and he activated the aura of the Grey Fog he carried on him.
In this instant, he seemed to have become an Angel with twelve wings draped behind him, the wings behind him being of the same style as the "Dream Angel" he had seen.
This was a drawing he had made on a Paper Figurine; it was originally fake, but under the enhancement of the Grey Fog aura, it did have a certain air to it.
"An Angel?!" The "Sea King's" aura suddenly stalled, and his flying hair froze.
"Heh..." Klein left behind a light chuckle, and his spirit body, carrying everything, returned directly Above the Gray Fog.
As for that External Incarnation, it was just a Paper Figurine; having lost Klein's support, it faded, burned, and turned into ashes.
"Which Angel is it?!" The "Sea King's" expression was extremely ugly. Judging by the wings, it was someone from the Dream Sect, but what era was this? Angels nowadays didn't bother with these things!
Angel wings were most popular in the Second Epoch and Third Epoch; that was the privilege of the Angels under the Creator in the Third Epoch. It was just that starting from the Fourth Epoch, most Angels preferred to return to their normal appearance.
"..." The "Sea King's" expression was extremely grave. With a wave of his hand, the seawater at his feet turned into a mirror, presenting the scene from just a moment ago.
He wanted to use this to trace back, but a bolt of lightning suddenly blasted all the images to pieces.
"It really is an Angel-level attack!" The last thing the "Sea King" saw was that lightning storm, which was so terrifying it could destroy the entire ruins in one blow.
"No! Why was it a lightning storm?!" Doubts grew in the "Sea King's" heart, but he had no way to be certain, and he was truly frustrated to the extreme.
"Transmit the image of this... person back to headquarters and have the Cardinal Council identify it!"
Klein returned Above the Gray Fog. The Book of Calamity and the Sea God Scepter both calmed down, and along with them, Klein's heart also settled.
"Why was I so impulsive?!" Klein was very self-reflective, feeling that his state just now had major problems.
Even with a Grade "0" Sealed Artifact, he should never have provoked a "Sea King"!
"One of the negative effects of these two items is to make people become impulsive, reckless, and lose their sense of awe."
This was fatal, especially in this sinister world.
"However, did he believe it?" Klein seemed to perceive the digestion of the "Faceless" Potion within his body.
This meant that the "Sea King" truly believed he was an Angel; his acting was very successful.
"Should I just let the External Incarnation go out to scare people in the future?" Klein's imagination ran wild, but he quickly gave up—if he appeared a few more times, he might really run into an Angel of the Storm Church.
Klein turned his attention to the two Magical Items in front of him.
"Combined, these are probably at the level of a Grade '0' Sealed Artifact..." Klein was amazed; he had truly made a huge profit.
There is still one chapter and a bit more.
